    Helped put on my shoes…

    Dear Helen,
    We can not express how much we appreciate everything you did for us, for me. There’s people who do a job and then there people like you. You went above and beyond anything we can could have asked or imagined, to the point you helped me get into my shoes. Not only did you help put together the best team of vendor but made the day run so smoothly. We are your number one fan and will always rave about how wonderful you are. We had such an Incredible day. Thank you from the bottom of our heart for making our dream wedding a reality. Even if that meant creating a mosh pit for Manny. You really are invaluable Helen.
    We love you!
    Manuel and Amalia Trillo 💕

    Easy Peesy!

    With this amazing wedding planner by our side- our wedding was truly a breeze. Seamless execution, and above everything else she's one of the most sweet, and genuine people I've ever met. Our connection is something I will never forget. Anyone would truly be lucky to have Helen as your planner!

    Heaven sent

    Helen was heaven sent! I hired her for the month of wedding planning for my son and his wife. She was amazing to work with! Very professional, kind, knowledgeable, etc. We ended up having a serious problem with the DJ at the last minute and Helen sprung into action and was able to help us find a new DJ the night before the wedding. She truly is an angel. Thank you for all you did for us Helen!

    Fantastic planners!

    So, my partner and I were a little late to the wedding planning game and only contacted sweetmaries four months before the big day. We were pretty clueless about the whole process, but luckily Helen and Raquel were total pros and made everything super easy. They were quick to get things moving and we were blown away by how organized and detail-oriented they were. Couldn't have asked for better help with such an important event!

    Helen and Raquel are really cool and chill. They're super sweet, caring, and never leave you hanging when you message, call, or email them. They're always on top of everything and help you out with everything you need while planning. They hooked us up with all our vendors and even came to all our meetings with them. They made the whole process stress-free, and even our first dance teachers were impressed that they helped us set up an appointment. Apparently, most wedding planners don't do that!

    Oh, and get this, on our wedding day, they were also our coordinators and helped us out with every little thing. They did such a great job that we just had to show up and follow their lead, and everything went off without a hitch.

    Sweetmaries has got some amazing vendors that are way above the norm. The live classical band, Pink Mozart, and the florist, Verde Olivo Floral & Botanical, were both super skilled, classy, dreamy, and romantic. They transported our guests back to Europe in no time! If you're planning an event and want to be free of stress while bringing your ideas to life, this is the place to hit up. Trust me, you won't regret it. This team will give you and your guests an unforgettable and unique experience that will last a lifetime!

    Great and caring event planner!

    Helen is so caring about her clients. Very careful on the details to make sure the event is as amazing as we had in mind. Thank you Helen for making our wedding day the most unforgettable day! You are simply amazing! Can't wait for you to help us with our daughter's XV party that is around the corner!

    Helen is amazing!

    Helen is amazing! She really had our back the entire wedding planning process and stood with us every step of the way, from finding vendors to coordinating all the details on the day. She was super accommodating and I fully trusted her with our wedding day, which made the day that much more enjoyable. Everything turned out beautifully and we didn't feel any stress on the day at all because of her! And on top of that she's just a genuine pleasure to talk to and work with. I could always go to her when things got crazy and always left feeling a lot better. Highly highly recommend.

    Helen was fantastic! She does everything!

    Helen was fantastic! She does everything! We highly recommend Sweet Marie's Event Planning! She was our wedding coordinator and she went above and beyond to make sure we did not have to worry about anything. She understood our vision and helped not just with the logistics, but also with the creative side and decor. The entire week of our wedding she helped design and create signs and provided her own decor to make sure every part of our planning was 100%!

    I am so glad I had Sweet Marie's Event Planning for my wedding. Helen and her team were amazing and she was with me every step of the way in the wedding planning process. She is very easy to work with, organized, and professional. I liked that there were different options in the type of coordination plans I could choose from that best fit my needs. My wedding day was absolutely PERFECT! I was not stressed at all on the day of my wedding. I am so thankful for Helen and her team!

    Sweet Marie's Event Planning

    Helen from Sweet Marie's Event Planning is amazing! She was there for me from start to finish with everything. My event was beautiful and more than what I had imagined. So many family and friends keep telling how beautiful my event was and how much fun they had. I couldn't have done it without Helen. She is truly a blessing and I love her to pieces! I will definitely refer her to everyone and recommend her!

    Best wedding ever thanks to Sweet Marie's!

    Hiring Helen was truly the best decision we made in the wedding planning process. We were planning a wedding that took place in Southern California while we lived in Sacramento, and Helen's knowledge, expertise, and familiarity with the High Desert area and local vendors made it so much easier for our wedding to come together. She was very communicative and easy to reach, was kind and supportive through the wedding planning process, and was instrumental in helping us find our rental company, DJ, and caterer (all of whom were fabulous by the way!). On the actual day of the wedding, Helen made everything flow seamlessly so my husband, myself, and our families could fully enjoy the day. Also, Helen's team and the decor that she lent us were AWESOME! All around, it was an absolute pleasure to work with Helen and she made our wedding day unique and something that fit our vision perfectly. Thank you Helen, Mark, and the rest of the Sweet Marie's Event Planning team!

    HIRE Sweet Maries!!

    Helen was BEYOND amazing! I cannot express how much I appreciate the work she did. My ceremony, reception, speeches and first dance were all supposed to be outdoors...the weather had other ideas and we had to move everything indoors last minute, the day of. She totally handled the situation and got everyone moving before guests even arrived. She went above and beyond and everything was perfect. I was not stressed at ALL on my wedding day and that is because of Helen! Everything was decorated beautifully and it turned out exactly as I envisioned. Hands down the best money spent was hiring Helen!

    Simply the best of the best!

    Helen and her team were an absolute joy to work with. She was so thoughtful in helping us figure out a package that worked for our budget, and then was so dedicated and detail oriented it felt like she had no other clients except for us. From sharing our vision with her, to helping remind us of important milestones to keep us on-track, to working with the vendors to execute the most beautiful set-up, Helen was 1000% ON POINT from beginning to end. It was so awesome to work with someone with so much expertise and experience, who also loves what they do. Her calming energy was a must-have, especially in that final month leading up to the event (you'll see what I mean lol). My wife and I never got that stressed out throughout the entire process, because we knew Helen had our backs. When one of the hotels we had a block with just all of a sudden stopped responding to our emails, Helen tracked down the contact. Not because we asked her to, but because Helen was keeping tabs on all the emails and saw herself that they had stopped answering us and got in touch. We were so busy with everything else, that to get a call from Helen saying, "By the way, I tracked down the point person at *insert hotel name* and all your concerns are now taken care of" was such a huge relief.

    That's one of my favorite things about her... she is the kindest, most level-headed person, and is able to utilize those strengths to go to bat for you to make sure your day is perfect. It's an incredible quality to have and my wife and I were just so impressed with how Helen handled herself in every situation. If you're on the fence... all you need to know is this: Every single time we got off the phone with Helen, or got off a zoom call, or got an email reminding us that our invitations needed to go out "yesterday", or laying in bed, exhausted after our literal dream wedding... we would turn to each other and go "Best decision we ever made."

    Thanks Helen!!!!!

    Fantastic wedding planner

    Sweet Marie’s took all the worry away from me in planning my daughter’s wedding. She was available in every phase of planning. She has wonderful connections for all the venders. The yard ended up looking like a fairytale. Helen was there to hold our hands for the rehearsal and the day of the wedding. The ceremony and reception ran so smoothly and were so enjoyable because I didn’t have to worry about a thing. Sweet Marie’s is worth every dollar we spent. I wholeheartedly recommend using them for your wedding.

    Everyone needs a “Helen” in their life!

    Helen truly was the missing piece when planning our big day. We felt an immediate connection with her from the start and knew we wanted to have her part of our planning process. She made it such a seamless and enjoyable time leading up to our wedding day from her communication, to meetings and every little thing in between. She truly pays attention to every single detail to make sure that your day runs smoothly. On our big day, she took over as the contact person and allowed us to take every moment in without any worries or stress. We are also so thankful to have had her husband’s and daughter’s helping hands the day of. Having Helen took a huge weight off of our shoulders and we would hire her over and over again! Our wedding wouldn’t have ran as smoothly without her help. We highly recommend hiring Helen for your event!

    I couldn't have done this without Helen!

    Helen went above and beyond to make our wedding day everything we dreamed of and more. She was always available for a call, meeting, advice, you name it. The wedding events moved so smoothly and timely. Our guests (130) were blown away with the wedding and several people have said it was the most beautiful wedding they have attended.
    Not only was the day of the wedding amazing, but the planning process was super fun with Helen. She became a good friend and someone I knew I could trust and rely on. I was busy with work and knew I wouldn't have the time to plan a wedding, so I hired Helen. Helen saved countless hours of my time, and so much in dollar savings (she looked for the best vendors and kept us in-line with our budget). Not hiring Helen would have cost us even more than her fee (and we purchased her premium package - 100% worth it!). The attention to detail that she had was exactly what I needed and the wedding turned out better than I could have ever imagined. Working with Helen was one of the best decisions I've ever made.

    The wedding turned out beautiful!

    Helen is the most amazing wedding coordinator! I can’t express how thankful we are to her, our wedding turned out to be absolutely beautiful ❤️
    My husband and I started the search for a coordinator about 2 months prior to the wedding day, since we had to change venues last minute due to covid restrictions. After talking to multiple coordinators, who were either way over priced or unenthusiastic, I was ready to call it quits. Then we met Helen. From day one Helen was super sweet and we could tell that she genuinely enjoys working with couples to plan a magical day. Helen was always available when we had questions and thought about every detail. During our first conversation she asked what I wanted on the wedding day and I said, I wanted a stress free day and I didn’t want anyone coming up to me asking me “where does this go, or where do you want this”. Helen and her team went above and beyond to ensure everything went exactly as planned. There were a few curve balls and Helen was sweet and calming through it all. I absolutely loved how the wedding turned out and I loved all the décor she allowed us to use. I would highly recommend Helen as a wedding coordinator if you would like a truly magical stress-free day (:

    The best at what she does!

    Working with Helen was the best decision I made for my wedding, she became more than just a wedding coordinator to my fiancé and I. Helen is truly talented at what she does and really does care about her couples. She’s genuine and has such a beautiful personality, it’s not just a business to her and you can see that. Helen was never once pushy about her ideas or overbearing. She became like a fairy Godmother answering my late night questions and calming my nerves when I was overwhelmed. She’s so organized and professional but also so sweet and funny. One of my favorite moments of my wedding is when i dragged her to the dance floor and she gladly shared a dance with me and mentioned how it was one of her fathers favorites. Helen will forever hold a special place in my heart. If you’re questioning hiring her for your wedding don’t think twice, she’s more than worth it!

    Speechless

    Helen is amazing at what she does! She made my special day so stress free and more importantly she made the ENTIRE wedding planning experience stress free. My BIG day was the most amazing day of my life so far and she was a HUGE part of that! My wedding was a dream come true! Even with Covid 19 ruining the original plan, she made it a DREAM. I went from a big farm wedding to a backyard wedding. Now looking back, I’m thankful for everything that happened because this backyard wedding was BEAUTIFUL and everything I could have ever imagined and wanted.
    Helen is the best planner out there! She is so professional and is there to make your dream wedding come true! She is amazing at what she does! Thank you again for the most amazing wedding I could have asked for!

    Top Notch Planner!

    I have worked with many planners and Helen is one of the most organized, kind and punctual ones that I have had the pleasure to work with. I had the opportunity to work with her for a Celebrity Wedding last August and at the very first meeting I noticed immediately her experience and professionalism. Working with her was so wonderful and everything went so smoothly. As a florist is so nice to work with planners like Helen. She created a welcoming environment to work as a team. I highly recommend her, and I hope to work with her again soon.
