We are so so happy and blessed with how our wedding turned out. Linda was a big part of thinking through all of the ideas that my partner and I had. She also was very professional and skilled at dealing with some tense moments and negotiations with a venue that we had picked out before hiring Linda. At all moments, we felt very strongly that Linda was personally invested in making our wedding day special - from thinking through so many details ahead of time to making small adjustments to decorations and tables throughout the wedding.

Awarded Best of Zola
I can honestly say that Ali was our wedding-planning superhero! When we first started planning our wedding, I wasn’t even considering hiring a wedding planner since our venue came with a coordinator. However, looking back now, I truly have no idea how we would have pulled off our wedding without Ali. She was absolutely indispensable! I did most of the vendor research and design planning on my own, and while that was manageable, Ali’s services took the entire experience to the next level. She was a lifesaver when it came to the logistics. She kept me organized, helped me stay on track, and made sure I was realistic about what could be done within my vision and budget. Even when the process got overwhelming, Ali was there, ensuring I didn’t get lost in the details or stray too far from my goals. On the wedding day itself, Ali truly shined. From what I was told, there were a few hiccups throughout the day (which is inevitable with any event of this scale), but I never had to worry about a thing. Ali quietly and efficiently handled everything behind the scenes, ensuring that I wasn’t aware of any issues and always had a solution in place before I even knew there was a problem. Thanks to her, I was able to relax and enjoy every moment of our special day without stress. If you’re on the fence about hiring a wedding planner, I can wholeheartedly recommend Ali. She made all the difference for us, and I’ll forever be grateful for her dedication, expertise, and calm presence. She is an absolute gem!

Ask any of my friends and family members, I LOVE to plan! I’ve worked in the wedding/events industry since 2017. It’s always been a dream of mine to start my own planning business, and seeing Rae come to life has been the best feeling! Every wedding is as unique as the love it celebrates, and I would love to help bring your vision to life. My goal is for every couple to look back in 20 years and think, “That really was one of the happiest and best days of our lives!”

I could not be more happy with how our wedding day turned out with the help of Rae Weddings & Events! Rebecca came on a little later in our wedding planning process, and she took the stress out of the final weeks and days leading up to the wedding. She absolutely shined on the day-of-coordination. I felt like we could completely rely on her to ensure everything went smoothly and just focus on enjoying our day. She also personally went above and beyond with the last minute details. We had a backyard wedding which required a ton of direct coordination with vendors, figuring out our own decorations/style, and flexibility when changes needed to be made. We were really planning the event from scratch down to the last detail, so we were thrilled to be able utilize Rebecca's expertise and she took so much of the burden and stress off our shoulders. Working with Rae Weddings & Events was an absolute game changer- I truly believe my wedding was more polished, stress-free, and enjoyable for us and our guests thanks of them.

Hiring Evelyn from Love & Laughter was hands down the best decision we made for our wedding. Before we hired her, we were feeling totally overwhelmed with the details and logistics. But Evelyn came in and handled everything seamlessly—she asked the right questions we hadn’t thought of and was incredibly patient with our Type-A personalities, answering all our nonstop clarifications. On the big day, Evelyn was a calming force in the midst of the chaos. We were able to enjoy our day stress-free, knowing she had everything under control. From managing vendors to making sure we always had a drink in hand, Evelyn was there for us every step of the way. If we could offer one piece of advice to other couples, it would be to hire a day-of coordinator—and if we could offer two, it would be: hire Love & Laughter! Evelyn made our day flawless, and we can’t recommend her enough.

While planning my own wedding, I realized that so many Brides are not enjoying the process - so, that's where I plan to step in!

We were initially on the fence about whether we “needed” a coordinator, and we both agree that Morgan was without a doubt one of the best investments into our wedding day that we made. She ensured that our space was set up beautifully, she kept everyone on schedule, she corralled groomsmen, she kept us fed, hydrated, and happy, she helped bustle my dress, she truly did it all.

My name is Samantha Grande. I have always had a passion for helping couples making their wedding dreams/visions come true on their big day. I have an eye for detail and I am a very hard worker. I understand all the wedding stress and I am here for you.

We hired Samantha as our "day of coordinator" as it was required by my venue. She went above and beyond the "day of" aspect and was with me from 8 months out. She would text and call to check in and ask if I needed assistance with anything. If I started to stress on something, she would handle it. As a mom, and full time student, who was buying a house, and planning a wedding, she brought ease to the wedding planning process. She had her own baby during this time as well! My reception space turned out beautiful thanks to her, her assistant and my mother-in-law's (and some family) diligent help/work. She sent me pictures of the venue space as I hid out waiting for my ceremony. She is very kind, and I think she did a great job!

Hello, my lovely couples! My name is Annie and I have started my business at the beginning of 2023 and so far I've had clients from all over the East Coast. I am focused on Partial, Full time Wedding planning, Elopements and A-la carte. My goal is to help my clients and make sure that their wedding goes by the plan that they created.

Annie from Before You Say I Do was an exceptional day-of-coordinator for our special day. Her communication style was frequent, clear, thoughtful, timely, and she was quick to respond to all of our questions and needs. The quality of her work and the value she provided was excellent-- she is hard-working and was incredibly considerate throughout the entire process. She went above and beyond, offering to bring additional decorations and even showing up the day before to assist with our traditional Vietnamese Tea Ceremony, which was not even on the same day as our official wedding. We had only hired her for her day-of coordination package, but even so, she was a consistent voice and helping hand for us for months leading up to the wedding. I can only imaging if we would have booked her whole wedding planning service, our wedding probably would have somehow been even more perfect than it already was. We are so grateful for her dedication and attention to detail in making our wedding day perfect. I highly recommend booking Annie!

With a meticulous eye for detail and unmatched organizational prowess, I take a personalized, visionary approach to wedding planning. Every couple's love story is utterly unique, deserving of a celebration that reflects their distinct style and personalities. Through methodical logistics management and curated design direction, I transform romantic visions into seamless, heartfelt realities tailored just for you. By plotting each detail with pinpoint precision yet injecting personal touches, I craft an unforgettable experience where the big picture wows as much as the small moments.

As an experienced wedding photographer and current bride, I’ve had the opportunity to work with countless wedding planners—and I can confidently say that Amanda stands out as truly one-of-a-kind. Her attention to detail is second to none, but what truly sets her apart is her ability to zoom out and focus on the cohesive guest experience. She doesn’t just plan events—she curates experiences. Amanda has expert organizational skills (thanks to a past career in project management) . Her spreadsheets are a godsend, and her approach is seamless, modern, and perfectly aligned with today’s bride. On top of that, she’s an ultra-fast communicator—always available and responsive, which makes planning a breeze. In a world where many high-priced planners rely on outdated tools, Amanda’s resources are fresh, intuitive, and highly efficient. Amanda is in a league of her own. Her modern, forward-thinking approach coupled with her stellar negotiation skills make her an invaluable asset to any wedding. What I appreciate most is how Amanda tailors everything to fit your needs—she provides a level of personalized attention that makes you feel genuinely cared for. She takes on the stress of planning so you can actually enjoy the process, and her calming presence has been such a relief during what can be a very overwhelming time. I feel incredibly lucky to have her as my partner in wedding planning and cannot recommend her highly enough!

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Dina to be our wedding planner and it was the single best decision we made for our wedding. We called a few different vendors and Dina immediately stood out because she was the only one who was willing to actually give us a true consultation to ensure we were on the same page with what we wanted. She also didn't require us to pay her any money up front. In fact, she didn't request any money from us until maybe a month or two in? And even then, it was a minimal deposit. Point is, her vibe is that of someone who understands the stress of wedding planning for the bride and groom so she makes you feel like she wants to earn your trust and do everything right before she asks for your business. Leading up to the wedding, friends and family would ask us if we were stressed or ask us how the wedding planning was going. Our answer would always be, "you know what... we don't have anything to do lol." And that was the truth. Dina made the entire process come together so seamlessly for us, during a pandemic no less, when so many vendors were backed up. When we saw the venue in it's final form for the first time, our jaws dropped. Even to this day we love recalling comments from guests on how beautiful the venue was. During the actual wedding, she stayed the WHOLE night for us and even brought an assistant. Leading up to the wedding we were not expecting that! She helped to orchestrate the whole night between guest seating and working with restaurant staff. Simply put, Dina's communication was on point. Her work ethic blew us away. The way she found and discussed vendors with us made us completely trust her with the process of pulling our vision together. Her fees were criminal to the point we had to tip her almost 500 more just so we didn't feel like we were robbing her of her time and effort. We've already jumped at the opportunity to recommend her to friends/family that are embarking on their wedding planning journeys. I don't write many reviews, but had to for Dina. She will always have a special place in our memories and lives because she played such a huge role on our special day.

Our venue was unique in that we had to ride the tram at Paisades Tahoe to access the reception Terrace Room. This meant all of our decor, Flower Moxie florals, vendors, and guests had to get up the mountain at particular times. She managed it all fabulously. We can’t say enough great things about Jenell’s work and how she helped us pull off a lot of the DIY final touches. Our Tahoe wedding weekend was perfect.
