Back to Recommendations for Commercial Services and Advice about Weddings

Feb 2002

I am in search of a great wedding planner-does anyone have any recommendations? Thanks in advance!

You HAVE to call Linda at One Stop Wedding Shop in Alameda. She is so wonderful. I had hired another for my wedding who turned out to be horrible and kept most of my money. I went to Linda on the advice of another friend who used her. I was concerned b/c I wanted a fun wedding that wasn't too outrageous but not too traditional either and didn't want to have the same problems that I had with the first coordinator. I thought she might not ''get it''. But, she was perfect. She was extremely reasonable and worked far beyond the call of duty. I felt so guilty for how little $ she charged and how hard she worked that I gave her some more $. I think my husband did too. She and her husband run the shop and are great people. I got married almost 2 years ago and still miss Linda! She was such a joy to work with and made sure it was as stress free and fun as possible. I have referred several brides to her and they have all felt the same way. Congratulations! A One Stop Wedding Shop 1629 Park St Alameda (510) 814-8014 Nicole
My mother's best friend is a wedding coordinator. She helped plan our wedding three years ago and I was very happy with the way it reflected our individual style. She's also a talented decorator and florist, so everything was beautiful and elegant, and she knew just where to get all the best wholesale deals on everything. Her name is Ann Saavedra and her business is called Dreamcatcher (www.dreamcatcher-events.com). She's in Walnut Creek: 925-947-3999. Whitney
