Initially, I was hesitant about hiring a day-of coordinator as I believed it would only increase our expenses. However, I must declare that I was wrong! Our coordinator, Shana, exceeded all our expectations! We engaged her several months prior to the wedding and she kept checking in with us every month, ensuring that we were executing our planning and had ordered all necessary items. Additionally, she was attentive to our questions and concerns. Thanks to her exceptional efforts, I was able to remain stress-free throughout the entire process, from before the event until after. I wholeheartedly recommend Shana to anyone who is unsure about hiring a wedding coordinator. Do not hesitate - hire her today!

Shana Love truly exceeded my expectations. From the moment I found her on CrackerJack during the early stages of my wedding planning, she had a significant impact on transforming my outlook. Her calming demeanor, endless ideas, and overall kindness made the planning process seamless. Shana's expertise in organizing crucial documents kept us on track, which was crucial for someone like me who tends to scribble things down in a haphazard manner. On the day of the wedding, we faced unexpected challenges such as high winds and power outages. However, Shana's ability to remain calm and make executive decisions kept everything moving smoothly. I appreciated that she made executive decisions without involving me and still ensured everything was handled. I am truly grateful for having Shana on board as she is indeed an expert in the wedding planning industry. Although I thought I could handle everything myself, I realized that there was no way I would have pulled off such an unforgettable wedding without Shana's assistance. We are still waiting for some photos to come in, but here's one of Shana conducting a rehearsal, and I hope she is featured in more pictures.

Our decision to hire Shana as our day-of coordinator was the best one we could have made. The intricacies of wedding planning are more complex than one might expect, and in hindsight, we can't imagine how we would have managed to make our special day as extraordinary without her support. Shana fits our requirements perfectly; she is professional, methodical, observant, patient, amiable, and utilizes her vast experience to handle all aspects of the wedding. From the onset of our association, Shana had a calming demeanor that made us feel more relaxed while keeping us on track with the requisite planning tasks. She was always quick to respond to any queries or concerns I raised between our monthly feedback meetings. Additionally, she made a special effort to visit our venue and help me arrange the ceremony and reception layout. On top of this, Shana went the extra mile and ensured the reception proceeded without hindrances after the staff I had employed for the job canceled due to transportation issues. We would wholeheartedly advocate for Shana's services since she surpassed all our expectations. Our loved ones continue to call and text us, expressing how wonderful our wedding was, and we are indebted to Shana for helping us bring it to fruition. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Working with Shana was an absolute delight! I feel incredibly lucky to have found her on this platform. Throughout our wedding weekend, she flawlessly managed every detail with ease and expertise. She not only assisted me in creating a truly memorable day, but masterfully executed the entire event. Shana's skills as a wedding planner are second to none.

It was an absolute pleasure working alongside Shana. We are incredibly grateful to have chosen her as our Day of Wedding Coordinator and feel fortunate that our paths crossed. Shana kept us engaged, while holding us accountable (which was necessary!), and remained understanding and flexible as we made decisions leading up to our big day. She provided us with a wealth of resources, expanding our realm of consideration regarding elements we hadn't previously considered, and ultimately fulfilled our vision for the event right down to each last detail. Shana's on-the-fly problem-solving capabilities were remarkable, and her composure amidst the inevitable ebullience of wedding celebrations was admirable. If you're in search of a wedding coordinator in the Bay Area, Shana is the one for the job! =)
