Josefina Weddings & Events

Where do I even begin.... First of all, 5 stars aren't even close too enough to give Laura and her team. We interviewed 4 or 5 planners before finding Laura. We had a good hour or so on the phone and immediately felt like we were lifelong friends. We began planning our wedding a year in advance and couldn't have been in better hands. Laura's suggestions, expertise and attention to detail made our event literally the wedding of the century. She thought of things we never even would have considered. I, being the groom and never having been married before didn't know what to expect but also tried to be as involved in everything as possible and Laura made the process enjoyable, and seamless. She is a professional and when you hire her, trust her opinion because she will ABSOLUTELY not steer you wrong. Her photographer recommendation was spot on and our pictures for both our engagement photos and wedding photos and video were done by another lovely couple and they turned out fantastic. After a year of planning, meetings, phone calls and text messages, the big day finally arrived. We set foot on the venue and saw a team of people putting up a tent, chairs, decorations, building a kitchen, etc. It looked like they were setting up Coachella a few months early and all of it was under Laura and Dana's watch. The day went perfectly, and everything was beautiful. Laura also communicated with my family over 600 miles away to plan a kick ass rehearsal dinner. This was SO important because it really set the tone for the rest of the weekend and I think we kicked things off with a bang. I have been receiving notes about not only how wonderful the wedding was and how it was literally the best wedding anyone had ever been too but also how on top of it and wonderful Josefina Events was. Laura and Dana interacted with guests, were extremely accommodating and helpful to every single person that needed them. The next day, Laura came back to check in with us and catch up, even though she didn't need to! We felt loved and taken care of throughout the entire course of planning through execution of one of the best events I have ever been too. My best friend recently got engaged and has also decided to work with Laura and her team. If you are looking to WOW your friends and family and make your day a day to remember, HIRE THESE GIRLS. The only complaint I have is that I won't be getting married again, so we can only do this with them once. But, we are looking forward to celebrating again with all of my friends who are just now planning their big days. I couldn't be happier with Laura and Dana. Not only did they help us make sure the biggest day of our lives went perfectly, but we became family in the process. Thank you again to the Josefina dream team! -David & Katie DeSantis

The whole planning process and our wedding day was a dream come true thanks to Laura and the Josefina Events crew. This team genuinely cares about their clients and takes care to learn your vibe to execute YOUR vision as you’ve been dreaming of. We were able to work off of their thoughtfully curated list of wonderful, talented vendors to pull our wedding day together. Laura is a problem solver, and works to navigate speed bumps leading up to, or on the day of. She will support you through and through with great advice, emotional support, planning strategy and is just a great person to bounce ideas off of as she’s so passionate and respectful of your wishes. She is at least in step, if not two steps ahead of you already on any concerns or ideas you may be sitting on (There were multiple “I was thinking about that too, and my thought is...” during planning). We had no worries at all during our wedding day as we knew we were in great hands. This team works hard to stay within your planned budget and so is very creative and resourceful in achieving that to help keep you sane. Laura is your champion; you want her in your corner. My only regret is that we have not achieved cloning, so there’s just one of her… but thankfully the entire team is wonderful as well!
