3 Best Wedding Planners in Oakland, CA

Laura was fabulous. We were planning a large wedding from the other side of the country, and she helped us host an epic, tailored and unique event that friends and family from all ages and many different backgrounds say was one the best they've been to. We played around with typical formats, and Laura made it happen. Laura brought a perfect mixture of clarity, calm, and cohesion to every things we did. She knew when to jump in and help steer the ship and when to let my husband and I come to a decision on our own. She was patient... and also told us when it was time to make a decision. She was cool under pressure, had meticulous attention to detail, and brought a creative flair that helped bring our visions to life. If you're considering her for your planner, you'd be silly not to. She's simply the best.

After learning about O Frabjous Day from attending a friend's wedding which Laura had expertly planned and coordinated, I hired Laura to help me with planning my own wedding, which had some unique and non-traditional elements which presented logistical challenges. On top of that, both our ceremony and reception venues were new to her as a wedding coordinator. She nailed it! She was a pleasure to work with, organized, detailed, and experienced, and took our feedback into account along the way. She made the planning process infinitely better than it would have been without her, and her day-of services meant I could actually enjoy my wedding as a guest of honor. Hire Laura, you won't regret it!.

Marilyn is the best of the best. I can't imagine planning a wedding without her. Her eye for design and attention to detail surpassed any expectations I had.

Marilyn is absolutely amazing! As a wedding photographer, I am so very lucky to be able to work with her to photograph her events. They are always stunning (making my job a bit easier), perfectly executed, and fun! She has that rare quality of creating a high-end event that is completely down to earth.
