From the beginning, Candice made us feel welcomed into the uncharted world of wedding planning. We immediately connected with her personality and her ability to educate us about the wedding planning process. It was clear she had extensive experience in the field and created the wedding of our dreams! We had a clear vision for our wedding theme and rehearsal dinner, and she really made our vision come to life (without veering from our style). She works excellently with DIY brides and always expressed her enthusiasm throughout the planning process. She was extremely responsive throughout the year, and we never felt like we needed to lift a finger to be on top of tasks. Our rehearsal dinner and wedding day were absolutely perfect; Heyday's team members were kind, thoughtful, and professional.

Brenda handled our wedding with a delightful yet executive-level efficiency. We had a fairly complicated plan for 150 guests in Santa Barbara's destination wedding far away from our personal residence, but she and her assistants were completely unfazed by this. Months ahead of time, Brenda foresaw all the elements of what we needed to make our wedding a wonderful, beautiful success. She was generous with her time and expertise, we loved her vendors, and would recommend her to all couples looking for a steady, insightful hand with Brenda as their wedding coordinator!

We had the most beautiful intimate backyard wedding thanks to LOM Productions. It truly turned out more beautiful than we could’ve ever imagined. Every step of the wedding process was not only easy because they gave such great guidance but it was also fun! I hear so many horror stories about brides not being able to enjoy their engagement due to the wedding stress, but with LOM there really emphasized the importance of enjoying the entire wedding experience. They paid attention to all those little details for me and because of it our wedding turned out so beautifully. I cannot recommend thank them enough for not only a wonderful night but over all experience.

Michele was our full wedding planner. Our wedding went perfect without a single hitch and it was all thanks to Michele. We had the caterer for our rehearsal dinner drop out one week before the event and Michele found us a replacement within an hour; and the replacement caterer was a slam dunk. Everyone loved the food. On the day of the wedding and rehearsal dinner Michele and Dan did everything. And I mean everything. She set up tables, positioned flowers and welcome signs and seating charts. She ironed over disagreements with vendors and never once did we have to lift a finger. It is a common saying that the bride and groom never enjoy their own wedding but we thoroughly had a blast at ours thanks to Michele. She is forever our go-to recommendation to all our friends getting married. If she has availability to plan your wedding, book her.

Angie, you were absolutely incredible to work with. We had a wonderful time partnering with Angie to create our dream wedding. She was recommended to us by our venue, The Ritz-Carlton Bacara, and we are so happy we chose her! Angie has such a positive personality, always kept everything under control, and never let us feel overwhelmed. It was so smooth at times we wondered what we were forgetting, and Angie always reassured us that we had it all covered. She did it ALL - from getting our vendor rates and availability sorted to showing us all our options and details that made the day come to life. Through our regularly scheduled calls and all the messaging in between, she asked all the right questions to help guide the process, (even for things we hadn't even thought about) and was always available for the one-off questions and to keep us sane, especially during those final two critical months before the big day. Angie also has a wonderful website that organized all our to-do lists, inspo pics, budget info, timelines, vendor details, etc. We didn’t realize how essential something like this was for keeping us on track, and it was little extra details like this that made such a difference. It's because of Angie that we had such wonderful vendors, a significantly less painful planning experience, and a flawlessly executed wedding day!

I’m Brandi Bondurant, & I founded Celebrations by Brandi in 2021. Our team of five dedicated planners is passionate about guiding you through every step of your wedding journey, culminating in a day that’s as beautiful as it is memorable. When potential clients ask, “What sets you apart from other planners?” it’s a question I love to answer. For us, it’s simple: we are deeply service-oriented. Our greatest strength is being the calm in the storm—providing a steady presence that brings peace of mind throughout the planning process and on the big day itself. We’re here to support you, offering expert guidance so that you can enjoy the process.

Awarded Best of Zola
I have so many good things to say about Celebrations by Brandi aside from being AMAZING! First off, she is an wonderful human being. I knew from the beginning that she was the one! Talking with her was like to talking to a girlfriend. She is genuinely kind, warm, fun, and easy to talk to over the phone. I regretted not hiring her from the beginning because I went with another wedding planner (The W Event Planner) due to budget, which was the biggest mistake ever! I ended up losing my deposit with the other event planner, but it was all worth it when I finally got the planner I really wanted from the beginning. I was very grateful that Brandi was still available for my wedding and that she was kind and understanding enough to take me back after explaining what had happened with the previous wedding planner I hired. After that it was history! Brandi became the person to go to for any and all advice (psychological stuff too!). It was so easy to see her as a friend. Being able to fully trust her with every detail of my wedding just made wedding planning that much more less stressful and made the whole process much more fun and exciting. Throughout the whole process Brandi was always available to help calm nerves and offer effective solutions to all problems, big and small. She was always on hand, day or night, to offer support and guidance. I found the enormity of planning a wedding rather overwhelming at times, while trying to live up to the expectations of myself and others. She took away this worry on so many occasions. Her eye for detail, focus on perfection and wealth of knowledge on all things wedding was invaluable. On the day she was by our side with her assistant Victoria, making sure everything ran smoothly, and we trusted their organization and decision making on our very special day. Together, they did an amazing job! I couldn’t have asked for a better duo on my wedding day so if you are looking for a hugely talented lady, who genuinely cares about your wedding – almost as much as you do – then look no further because Celebrations by Brandi can and will deliver 110%. Thank you Brandi and Victoria, you really made our day the best day of our lives!

Alexis’ Cheers Event Company is one of the greatest coordinator and planning services we ever encountered. She made us feel comfortable that we didn’t have to worry about anything the day of the wedding. We ended up doing the Month of Coordination, and even though that left most of the planning and creation up to us; Alexis was always a phone call away if we ever needed advice or referrals. The day of the wedding, she made our vision come to life and it was nice that she took control of contacting vendors for delivery and coordination. We would definitely hire Alexis and her crew again for other events in our lives. Thank you for making our vision come to life!

Awarded Best of Zola
We LOVED working with Brittany. We had monthly meetings with her for over a year, from the venue search phase to the handoff to our month-of coordinator, and she was so helpful. She helped us with the searches for everything—venue, DJ, photography, day-of coordination, flowers, catering—and provided us timelines and organization tools that were genuinely invaluable. We had very little idea going in exactly what was needed to plan a wedding, but Brittany’s collaboration made us feel very on top of things. She also worked with us to troubleshoot things when issues arose (like our flower provider not following some of our communication requests). And an added bonus is that she’s fun to hang out with lol—we really enjoyed our monthly meetings!! Would absolutely recommend the Venlist (and Brittany specifically)!

I have to agree with every one of these 5-star reviews for Kari and Feathered Arrow! My husband and I talked to several planners before signing with Kari and it's by far the best decision we made for our day. With two very different ceremonies in one day, in one venue, with almost two hundred guests several other vendors and their teams, there was a *lot* to coordinate. Kari was at the center ensuring everything went as smoothly as possible. We had monthly scheduled check-ins with her to discuss progress as we neared the wedding day and I never felt rushed or stressed. With our particular venue, we needed to bring in everything from outside vendors - lunch, dinner, snacks, cakes, drinks, stage, flowers, chairs, every plate, fork, and cup. It was a huge effort to coordinate everything and Kari made things seamless and smooth every step of the way. After hearing of so many wedding difficulties from friends, I asked that my husband and I, and our families, be able to enjoy the day without being the ones to be contacted with any hiccups and we were able to do so throughout the whole wedding. Partnering with Kari was by far the best decision we made for ourselves when it came to our wedding. I recommend her to every single couple thinking about holding a wedding. It is worth every minute for a consultation with her and if you decide to hire Feathered Arrow, it is worth every dollar you spend. Kari was incredibly professional, reliable, and communicative in every way. Thank you thank you thank you to Kari and her team for an unforgettable wedding!

I first heard about Abibi Bridal when I was assisting my best friend CakedbyMel assemble a wedding cake in New Hampshire in September 2023. Mind you, I was visiting my best friend in Boston for the weekend because it was her birthday. I live in New York, so I took a flight to Boston to spend time with her. My friend was hired to construct the wedding cake by Abibi Bridal because Abibi Bridal was booked as the wedding planner for the wedding. I was observing how Abbe was working with the vendors and the wedding party, and I was instantly impressed. I walked up to Abbe and told her; I am getting married next year, and I am going to book you to plan my wedding. Abbe said of course! I set up my consultation with Abbe and I booked her for her wedding coordination services immediately. I just knew Abbe and her team would execute. From when I booked Abibi Bridal at the beginning of October 2023, up until the day of the wedding, April 25, 2024, Abbe has been a blessing when it came to planning my wedding. Even though she was booked for wedding coordination, Abbe was so helpful, knowledgeable, patient, kind, and just overall amazing throughout the entire process. She knew exactly what vendors would work great with the vision I had. Abbe knows all the best vendors and has great relationships with so many amazing vendors, that you know the vendors will execute not only because they are dedicated to their craft, because of their relationship with Abbe and Abibi Bridal. Now let’s fast forward to the day before the wedding, Abbe and her team came down from Boston, and from the moment Abbe and her team arrived until the end of the wedding the following day, Abbe and her team were all hands on deck! When I say the level of professionalism Abbe and her team had is unmatched compared to other wedding planning teams I heard about. She was a shield from all the stress, questions, unsolicited advice, and energy that was heading my way. Words honestly cannot describe what Abbe and her team did for my wedding. She made everything so seamless and special. My advice to every upcoming bride is to book a wedding planner or wedding coordination because it will make the wedding planning process go so smoothly. I strongly recommend booking Abibi Bridal because everyone deserves a piece of mind when it comes to wedding planning, and that is what you will get when you book with them. I do not only consider Abbe as my wedding planner, I consider her my friend and family because what she did for me and my wedding, I will never forget. Those memories will forever be cherished.

Natalie and the team at Faye Fern Creative did all the planning and design work for me and my wife's wedding this past month, and they did a PHENOMENAL job. First off, I think communication is key when you're planning an event of this size and magnitude, and Natalie was incredibly easy to communicate with. She was always just a text or call away, and she never made me feel like she was rushing me if I had any questions or concerns or wanted to flesh out the details of a certain issue. She was always patient, level-headed, receptive to criticism, and willing to discuss any issue whatsoever. The communication overall pre-wedding was very on-point. Secondly, Natalie's talent for designing and creating a timeless beautiful aesthetic is second to none. Her taste is impeccable, she has an attention to detail that you will deeply respect, and she will help you create a cohesive design element that will have you and your guests blown away. From the ceremony design all the way down to the drapes and the cutlery, Natalie has a keen eye for creating a gorgeous yet comfortable/welcoming design. Everything she does is tasteful and creates that special atmosphere that makes a wedding so unforgettable and emotional. She will definitely help bring your vision to life, and if you're not really interested in coming up with a design element for your wedding or don't know much about it, just know that you're in amazing hands with Natalie. Lastly, I just want to comment on Natalie's work ethic and dedication. From the first call we had with her all the way to the end of the wedding, I could trust that Natalie and her team were doing EVERYTHING in their power to make our wedding weekend the most special few days possible. Natalie has a deep passion for the work she does, and she will work tirelessly to bring your vision to life. Our wedding day was easily one of the greatest days of our lives, and that was in large part due to Natalie and her team's amazing work and preparation. I highly recommend Natalie and The Faye Fern Creative team for wedding planning and creating the most unforgettable wedding for you and your partner!

My love for events, and especially weddings, is my passion. I love hearing each couples love story and how I can make their wedding day a reflection of them!

Tiffany was our Month of Wedding Coordinator, and she did an amazing job! She was able to easily pickup where we left off in wedding planning. She provided us with a wedding checklist and vendor recommendations which was super helpful. It was a pretty smooth transition once the month before the wedding began. One thing that really gave us peace of mind was that she worked on creating multiple backup plans for us in case it rained on the day of our wedding. On the actual day of the wedding, we didn’t have to do or think about anything. Tiffany made sure our venue and ceremony site were set up exactly how we wanted it, and made the day flow pretty much seamlessly. Her process during the month of is also great because she helped us create the timeline of the day, made a personal decor list, and helped us solidify plans with our vendors so everyone was on the same page. We couldn’t thank Tiffany enough for helping make our wedding perfect!

Her and the owner were so kind enough to make my original package of Day of Planning, to Full planning at a discount! Saved my whole wedding day. I cried a few days before my wedding because remembering all the months prior, they were there for me every step of the way. And on the day, everyone kept asking me, Is your planner a friend of yours? I honestly told them, 100% yes. :) Because I feel like we now are friends. Such a family orientated company.
