    Wedding Fairy Godmothers!

    There isn’t a way to begin to sing the praises of AnneMarie and her team! My fiance and I had reached out/spoken with what seemed like all the wedding planners in the Bay Area--and only for a month of coordination/day of coordinator. When we spoke to AnneMarie, less than half way through the call, we knew we had found the one. AnneMarie was clear with her communication, honest and real. We had signed on to work with AnneMarie but didn’t expect to communicate too often until much closer to the wedding day and she provided us with a spreadsheet to keep ourselves on track. In the interim, we had emailed AnneMarie with a few questions here and there and received an incredibly prompt response. A few months before the wedding, sooner than we had expected, AnneMarie swooped in like a wedding fairy godmother and took over communication with our vendors (just as we were starting to get annoyed with them). AnneMarie had the answer to every question, and her email response rate was so fast that it sometimes felt like a text exchange back and forth. At the rehearsal we met Lauren--she was totally in the loop about all things related to our wedding and was ready to lead our wedding party. Lauren had communicated with us throughout the weekend as needed (and of course we could email with AnneMarie too). On the day of, Ari was equally great! We cannot thank Something Blue Productions more for helping to make our fairytale dream wedding a reality.

    Worth every penny!

    AnneMarie was great to work with and we're so glad we hired her and her team! She was very responsive leading up to the wedding through email, and helpful with her advice. She attended planning meetings with me virtually with my vendors too. On the day of, she was a dream and ran everything super smoothly with Lauren (her assistant). Planning a wedding during a pandemic is not easy, but SBP made sure the day was perfect. The biggest compliment came from my mom who said SBP was wonderful and worth every penny!

    1M% Satisfaction Guaranteed!!

    My fiancé and I found AnneMarie at Something Blue Productions online after interviewing several wedding planners/designers and we are so appreciative and grateful to have her coordinate our wedding for next year. AnneMarie is super friendly, genuine, professional, knowledgeable and always punctual. From the beginning of the planning process, she’s always had our best interest in mind and we’ve always known we were in great hands. Even throughout this COVID pandemic and things being uncertain, AnneMarie has been very understanding and has continued to work with us. My fiancé and I are very busy people and we decided to hire a wedding planner to take some of the weight off of our shoulders, which she has definitely done. Also, with there being so many vendors to choose from online, choosing the right vendors can get pretty overwhelming and become daunting after awhile. But AnneMarie will provide you with everything you need for your wedding. From bridal shop to DJ recommendations, she has excellent connections and will get you in contact with reputable and reliable vendors. She is also very organized and will keep you on track with your wedding budget, which was a very important factor for us. I HIGHLY recommend Something Blue Productions for your wedding. My fiancé and I always mention how this was the best investment that we made for our wedding. If you’re looking for a wedding coordinator that literally has it all, I would stop searching for coordinators today and contact Something Blue Productions right now! You will not be disappointed at all, I promise!

    Outstanding From Start to Finish

    AnneMarie’s skills as a wedding planner are without equal. She is truly one of the most gifted planners I have ever worked with, and created the perfect day for my friends that none of us could ever forget. I was part of the wedding party and AnneMarie made sure that everyone was in the right place, at the right time, ready to go, with all details firmly attended to and made absolutely perfect. She was responsive throughout the entire process: from her organized attention to detail that made sure nothing was left unaddressed, to her personable attitude that was engaging while also being direct to ensure the day’s success. During the day of the wedding, for example, there was a nearly endless agenda of details that needed to be flawlessly timed and executed. During one moment in particular, AnneMarie stepped in to quietly fix an important timing issue in the background without the bride and groom noticing at all - doing so in a way that didn’t disrupt their biggest day, but instead made sure everything went off without a single issue (and, to be clear, if she hadn’t intervened so seamlessly, it could have been a different story!). I was so impressed with her incredible professionalism - it was as though she could anticipate everything that was about to happen and connect all of the dots both ahead of time through planning and meeting the day’s challenges with grace, decisiveness, and charm. If you’re looking for the biggest day of your life to also be your best, AnneMarie and Something Blue Productions is your answer!

    Couldn't have done it without her!

    AnneMarie was awesome from the first time I contacted her about being my month-of coordinator to wrapping up the final details. She is trustworthy, always on time (early, in fact) and I felt completely relaxed my whole wedding day knowing I was in good hands. My wedding at Murrieta's Well went perfectly, ran smoothly, and the venue looked stunning. If there were any issues, I still don't know about it becuase everything was taken care of! Thank you so much AnneMarie for making my wedding run just as I had hoped! Hire her and her team- you won't be dissapointed!

    Bright Side!

    Working with AnneMarie has been such a relief during the pandemic. My fiancée and I were originally supposed to get married in June of 2020, we then postponed to September 2020 and now again to 2021. AnneMarie helped us reschedule both times and did so quickly and calmly, while helping us look on the bright side. She quickly responds, checks in when needed, and asks questions we didn’t even know we needed to think of. Can’t wait for next year!

    Loving, caring, professional, efficient. Couldn't ask for more!

    AnneMarie is the most amazing planner ever! She was the reason why I didn't go bananas while organizing my wedding in 2 weeks! She knows the ins and outs of everything. Will always look for ways to help you. If you have limited budget, make sure you prioritize getting her! She's amaaaazinng

    No regrets!

    AnneMarie has been a lifesaver! Most especially during these unprecedented times! My fiancé and I made the difficult decision to go forward with our wedding with modifications. AnneMarie has been there every step of the way to go above and beyond to help us make this day as special as possible. From reviewing contracts and texting her with my many questions (lol) she has been awesome. I would recommend her to any couple looking for someone to help them coordinate their event! As our day is soon approaching, I’m so comforted she’ll be there!

    Absolutely Wonderful!

    We used Something Blue Productions for our wedding this past Saturday, and I'm extremely grateful for their services! AnneMarie did a wonderful job helping prepare for the big day (month-of package) and Lauren and Leah that worked the day of the wedding were very professional and busy busy busy! All the set-up and tear down, handling vendors, checking in with us along the way, they made sure my day was stress-free and absolutely memorable. We're all human so there were a few hiccups but nothing that they didn't handle with class and style. All my family and guests were impressed with their work and didn't need to worry about a thing all day.

    I absolutely recommend you sign up for their services right away!

    Something Blue Productions's reply:

    Thank you so much Kim! It was such a pleasure working with you!!! All of your hard work really paid off, it was such a fun day!

    Something Blue Productions to the Rescue!

    We reached out to several day-of coordinators about 1 month before our wedding, after our previous coordinator disappeared on us suddenly. AnneMarie at Something Blue Productions was the first coordinator to respond back to us. From the beginning, AnneMarie was very quick to respond to all our emails/messages. During our initial phone consultation we could tell she was very knowledgable and had plenty of experience with wedding coordination. She quickly put us at ease, even though we were stressed about having to find someone last minute.

    Right after we hired her, she got to work with contacting our vendors and helping us with our timeline and other final details for our wedding. Even though we hired her as a day-of coordinator, she acted more as a month-of coordinator and was always very helpful answering any of our questions leading up to our wedding day. AnneMarie and her assistant, Lauren, were present during our rehearsal and even took most of our decorations and items for our ceremony and reception so that we wouldn't have to worry about bringing them ourselves. They even helped us assemble our ceremony programs and folded our place cards for us.

    On the day of the wedding, AnneMarie and Lauren helped our ceremony run smoothly. For the reception, they set up all our items and decorations exactly how we had asked. Everything looked beautiful. Our reception activities ran smoothly and they kept us on track with our timeline. At the end of the night, AnneMarie and Lauren had all of our items packed and ready to be loaded into my family member's car. Our wedding day went so smoothly and perfectly that I, along with my family, had very little stress! I was really able to enjoy our wedding day, which is something I can attribute to AnneMarie and Lauren's hard work.

    Can't Recommend Them Enough!

    As a Bride planning her own wedding it was a real pleasure to have someone work so well and help out so intrinsically get things done.
    AnneMarie and team, were respectful, ontime and hard working. They made sure everything went smoothly and listened to my ideas and plans before giving me their suggestions to make it even better.
    I 110% recommend their services to any bride/groom in need of some support during her/his big day.
    Seriously, made my day run like clockwork even when it shouldn't have and allowed me to enjoy my day and not panic or stress. Great team and would use again if I could!

    An Expert to Say the Least!

    My daughter was married this summer and AnneMarie was our savior! She answered questions we didn’t even know we had and was super responsive, polite and knowledgeable. On the day of she had everything down to a T. When I arrived at the venue early to see if anything needed to be done and everything was already perfect! My daughter and her new husband were kept on time (thanks to her well-crafted timeline and direction on the day) and actually got to eat and drink their signature cocktails! AnneMarie is definitely the best – I would give her the highest recommendation! Thank you for all you did for us, AnneMarie!

    Amazing Wedding Angel Woman!

    AnneMarie and her team are absolutely incredible! My mom and I were fairly nervous about making sure everything was taken care of. Then AnneMarie came aboard and all of our doubts melted away. Shes is fantastically responsive, thinks of everything, and has wonderful energy. I HIGHLY suggest bringing her on to be your go-to wedding angel! There is no way our weekend would have been as spectacular and magical as it was without her help.

    Best Day Ever

    After several months of wedding stress, I decided I needed to hire a day of coordinator. AnnMarie was recommended to me and I'm so grateful to have found her. She is very responsive to emails/ phone calls, organized, and professional. She created a wedding timeline for us, finalized details with vendors the week of the wedding, picked up our wedding pies the day of, put out décor at our venues, and kept us on time throughout the whole day, just to name a few of the various details she handled. Our wedding was prefect! We were either on time or ahead of scheduled for the entire day. My husband and I were relaxed and able to enjoy our special day. Thank you AnnMarie for taking away the wedding stress and orchestrating a prefect day for my husband and I.

    Annemarie for all of your bridezilla needs

    Omg, I can't even begin to explain how AMAZING AnneMarie and Lauren were for our wedding. Seriously, working with them was the absolute best, and I can honestly say that everything went exactly as I had hoped for... I have already recommended her to future brides, and I suggest you book her too! She's affordable, detailed, and the best person to talk to if you have a bridezilla moment!!!

    I booked AnneMarie for day-of coordinating services back in 2020 during the pandemic when my wedding had to be postponed to this June 2021. She was already super supportive from the get-go when I decided to go with an elopement in 2020 and then have my wedding this year. I didn't even know her yet and she was already there for me!!

    About a month or so leading up to my wedding, she was super responsive (like extremely responsive every time I emailed or texted I was shocked lol) and that's how I knew I could trust her. I even appreciated how willing she was to meet up with my husband and I at our venue to do a walk through so she knew what my vision was (and she got there earlier than us too). She's super knowledgeable and her experience really showed through--she was helpful when I needed ideas about transportation to and from my venue, how we were going manage the furniture placement at the venue, and, because she had connections at Pleasanton Rentals, she knew exactly what items to order for my venue at the last minute. I also appreciated how realistic she was with me, but at the same time let me be a diva and plan for the most Type A things I wanted for my wedding. I appreciated that she connected with all of my vendors via email so I didn't have to deal with anyone during the last month, and she even zoomed with my DJ/MC before the wedding day to make sure they were on the same page with the timeline!! Oh, and all of my vendors loved working with her too.

    She was even super thoughtful during the event: grabbing my bouquet for the photographers during golden hour photos, taking my veil off, bustling my dress... Making sure all of my items I brought to the venue was packaged so it got back home safely (We did so much DIY for our wedding, I was impressed she didn't lose anything!)... I can cry just thinking about all of the amazing things she did to make the day just feel so special.

    ***TL;DR: If you want to truly just enjoyed the day and live in the moment that is your wedding day, look no further and book Something Blue Productions. I'm so lucky to have gotten to work with AnneMarie... She went above and beyond my expectations :')
