I cannot thank Gina and KC events enough. She was an angel for our rehearsal and wedding day. I'm a highly organized DIY bride and thought I had EVERYTHING taken care of until we came in to a wedding license snafu which we did not foresee and sent our rehearsal off schedule. Gina was so helpful and so calming I surely could not have imagined the day without her. Her and her assistant were punctual, calming and put everyone at ease as she quietly made sure all my plans were executed and that the ceremony and reception were a success. I think we were probably an exceptionally challenging couple to wrangle but she did it with grace and professionalism. I'd recommend Gina to anyone planning an event and hope to work with her again myself!

Gina coordinated my wedding in Sonoma in July and she was OUTSTANDING. We met in person three times before the wedding, and she was always punctual, organized, and personable. She provided me with several document templates to help me plan out various aspects of the wedding, which was incredibly valuable- and several other vendors complimented me on my organization, which I totally owe to Gina. She also always responded to my e-mails quickly and helpfully.

On the day of (and at the rehearsal, which she ran), she was calm, efficient, and effective. It was such a relief to know that I wouldn't have to worry about anything, because she and her assistant were keeping things on track and running smoothly. When the strap of my dress popped off, Gina had safety pins at the ready and I was back in action in minutes. I couldn't have asked for a better wedding day!

On top of all that, Gina's rates are more reasonable than any of the other wedding coordinators I researched- and it is definitely money well spent. If you're even remotely considering getting a day of coordinator, DO IT. And get Gina. You will be glad you did!

Gina was our 'Day of Wedding Coordinator'... Even tough the planning and correspondence began a month prior to the wedding day. At our first meeting, Gina listened carefully and took note of everything that I wanted and was very understanding of my neurotic ways. She was very professional and showed that she cared. She helped point out things that could make the day go smoother and had valuable input without suppressing my vision.... In fact she enhanced it. I must say she was rather stealth... She ensured that all details were perfect without being seen yet was there when I needed her. Gina did an incredible job and was a huge part of making my dream wedding a reality!
