“Lindsey was the only reason we were able to plan our perfect weekend for 150 guests from Denver, CO. We both work a lot but had the vision for our wedding clear. Lindsey understood our vibe and made the vision not only a reality but spectacularly more than what we could have even envisioned our weekend to be. She assisted with our welcome event, which we still have people talking about, and our wedding day which people can’t stop talking about either! I would recommend her 1,000 times on here if I could! Whether she likes it or not, she is family to us. :) Her professionalism and attention to detail were truly a rare and special thing to experience. For both our amazingly fun welcome event and the gorgeous wedding, we only had to make two trips out and planned everything else over the phone. Both trips were planned expertly by her so we could make decisions and not worry about it back home in Denver. Beyond our vision, her suggestions for additional surprises for our guests were perfection and so helpful.”

“Lovely Day Events was hands down the best decision we made throughout our entire wedding process. We are from Minnesota and decided to do our destination wedding in Sonoma Valley two weeks after we had gotten engaged in Napa Valley. After a lot of research and knowing I couldn’t make it out to California before our wedding, we realized we needed a wedding planner before moving forward with any of our plans. I had interviewed about six or seven planning companies in hopes of finding someone who I liked, trusted, and had worked with out-of-state brides. Our last call was with Lindsey and about four seconds after hanging up the phone with her, I called my parents and told them we found our gal... My parents, husband, and I are sincere when we say; our wedding day wouldn’t have been the same without her. She truly took our expectations to a whole ‘nother level.”

“We couldn’t have found a more perfect match! Lindsey and her staff helped us to plan the perfect wine country wedding right in our own backyard. Lindsey is professional, organized, and a lot of fun to work with. She was there every step of the way - from scheduling meetings in the months before the wedding to running the rehearsal, and of course, she and her staff were present (but you didn’t know it) and amazing on the day of the wedding. She goes above and beyond to make sure everything is taken care of and will take initiative to solve any problems that might arise on/during the wedding. We are so thankful to have found this gem. It couldn’t have been a more perfect day. Thank you Lovely Day Events and especially Lindsey.”

“Lindsey and her team are absolutely the best! From day one, she understood my vision and was very responsive to my unique needs and requests. (Planning from afar is not always the easiest!) She was always making suggestions based upon what she felt would make my day a success and I can’t imagine how it would have turned out without them! She is detailed but not overbearing, a perfect teammate for a day of planner. I never felt like she was just saying what I wanted to hear - she was realistic but never said anything was impossible. Her staff is friendly and accommodating, definitely people you WANT at your wedding! I couldn’t have done it without her.”

“The best wedding planner for people who “don’t need a wedding planner” (spoiler alert, you do) When my husband and I met and lived in the Bay Area but recently moved to Chicago, so when we picked our wine country venue that required a planner, we had a little anxiety about finding someone who was going to help us execute our vision from afar, while caring as much about the things that were important to us (which included staying on budget).
Lindsey came highly recommended by friends of ours and after our first chat with her we knew she was the right fit! Lindsey’s knowledge and relationships with other wine country vendors are invaluable, she made recommendations that fit our needs and priorities and honestly the result was a perfect day where we could just focus on each other, our family and our guests, truly the best day ever. We both agree that we might have to have a vow renewal just to have the opportunity to work with her again”

“The wedding was way beyond our expectations (which were high already)! It was such a wonderful, joy-filled, stress-free, pleasant day. Our families and guests have raved about the event and we’ve gotten so many comments about how nice the vendors were.
I don’t think I’ve ever talked to a vendor at someone else’s wedding, so that’s really cool to hear. Lindsey offered exactly the guidance we needed, from helping us select reputable and highly skilled vendors who are also wonderful people like her (trust her recommendations, you won’t regret it!) to little things like helping me figure out what kind of sunscreen wouldn’t ruin my dress or which restaurants in Napa had private space large enough for our rehearsal dinner! I didn’t have to worry about a thing on the day of the wedding or even the days leading up to it. Lindsey had everything covered, and she helped me get my ducks in a row before the big day so our families and bridal party knew what to expect as well. I was dreading wedding planning after how much time and effort it took to research venues.
Hiring Lindsey was easily the best decision we made because all that stress disappeared the moment we did. She made it not only manageable, but fun.”

“Hiring Lindsey was the first move we made in planning our destination wedding, and I am so glad! The first phone call felt like I was talking to a close friend about the vision and details that were important to us. Lindsey stayed in contact throughout our nearly two-year planning process, offering suggestions on vendors, planning tips, and follow-up on anything I needed help with. She is incredibly detail-oriented and I felt comfortable early on that every aspect would be taken care of in her capable hands. Our day-of-timeline was so well planned and executed that we could have started our ceremony early if we wanted, which is amazing because I am notoriously late for everything!.. Her attention to detail and precision makes her excellent at her job, and I am so glad she was there to help us with every step along the way. Thank you, Lindsey!”

“Hiring Lindsey and her team at Lovely Day Events was the best investment we made for our destination wedding in Napa! She was prompt, organized and an absolute joy to work with. Our monthly check-ins kept the planning process on pace – helping make decisions, offering ideas, and keeping things organized all while calming my nerves. Our second best decision was using her preferred vendor list. Lindsey is well-respected in the industry – and using her preferred vendors gave us an all-star wedding team. She worked with our vendors so seamlessly that it really felt like they were one team. As our wedding day got closer, the forecast called for rain (for our outdoor wedding). Lindsey jumped into action, giving us several options and ultimately securing a tent three days prior to our event. My wedding day was better than I could have ever imagined – beautiful, fun, organized, and CALM. I was able to fully enjoy my day because I knew Lindsey and her team were taking care of every last detail. We were able to spend our day focused on our family, our guests, and each other. Hiring Lindsey and Lovely Day Events was the single best decision we made during the planning process!”

“Lindsey at Lovely Day Events is exceptional! Our daughter was planning a destination wedding in Sonoma and hiring Lindsey was one of the best decisions we made to begin the process. Lindsey has the experience and attention to detail that was so important throughout and she has a very well-respected group of vendors on her preferred vendor list. She was very easy to work with, is very personable, and was dedicated to planning both the wedding day/reception and welcome event, and coordinated both events with very talented vendors. Lindsey is very organized, efficient and offered a very detailed timeline as well as monthly check-in calls, and kept us all up to date with emails, which was most helpful in keeping things running smoothly as the planning progressed. The weekend was a very special time for the guests and for us all and an absolutely memorable one which far exceeded what we had envisioned! We felt that Lindsey was a part of our family in preparing for the wedding and highly recommend her and the staff at Lovely Day Events.”

“Lindsey and her team were exceptional. During the planning process, Lindsey made sure that nothing was missed and brought things to our attention that we would not have thought of otherwise. At first we were hesitant, but in the end her recommendations were always the best decision.
In addition, we are certain that there were so many “behind the scenes” things that she did for us that helped make the process so smooth, it is hard to know just everything that goes into planning and executing such a large event. Everything was so well executed on the day of the wedding, that we could just sit back, relax, and enjoy the day with our friends and family.
I am sure there were some issues that came up, however Lindsey handled them all seamlessly and never brought any problems to us. Her communication style is perfect and kept us on track the entire day - so well that we had even some downtime before the ceremony!
We are so grateful to Lindsey for always keeping a level head, maintaining the highest level of professionalism, and being an overall wonderful and friendly person to work with over the many months leading up to the event. Thank you so much for everything!”
