“From the very beginning, I felt heard and understood”
Dear, Joan - Thank you so much for the most wonderful planning partnership I could have hoped for. From the beginning, I felt heard and understood and you managed my expectations. The way you got to know me and then referred vendors, designed the space, selected rentals and made other suggestions is a true skill. Our wedding was so perfectly “us”and I have you to thank for that. Please share my gratitude with Megan and Tokar. They are both outstanding and I know the entire wedding day was a huge team effort. You are all consummate professionals and I value your responsiveness and punctuality. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for not only the most spectacular wedding, but also an extremely positive experience planning it together. I will miss working together and hope to see you again soon.

“How absolutely perfect it was”
Dear Joan - Well, a month has passed since the wedding… we can hardly believe it but every day we are reminded about how absolutely perfect it was. Truly, it was Maggie and Michael’s dream wedding and we could not have done it without you. Your calm manner, grace under pressure, amazing organizational skills, tact, knowledge and so much more made the wedding weekend everything we could have hoped for and more. With All Our Best and Love,

“You seamlessly made our
impossibles perfect”
Ladies and Gentlemen - When it comes to weddings, it is obvious to me now that teamwork makes the dream work. If you get engaged. Are engaged. Are thinking about an event. Get a planner. Or in this case get three. They are the absolute key to being able to effortlessly and stresslessly enjoy your day. And if you're lucky, you wind up with some new friends who were able to enjoy your most special day along with you. Natirar, there are no words. Kelly, you are magical. Megan, we would still be at square one without you. Joan, you are a patient, organized, dedicated saint - we love you so much. You all seamlessly made our impossibles perfect. And for that. To us. You are perfect. You have made these two gentlemen the happiest HUSBANDS on earth, and for that we are forever grateful.

“WE WILL NEVER FORGET EVERYTHING YOU DID FOR US”
Dear Joan - We can never begin to thank you for the pleasure of working with you, and for the perfect execution and vision you brought to us to make all of our dreams come true! It was all just sensational. In addition to the big things, you brought just as much attention to the details, creating the very personal experience that we hoped for in a wedding. The coordination of everything related to the ceremony was on a military scale, and needed to be....what an effort. At CBCC, the transformation of the ballroom as the evening flowed was breathtaking, memorable and magical. We truly enjoyed having Tokar and KC on hand throughout the wedding day, and I am so glad that they were there. Most importantly, we will never forget everything you did for us, and I hope that we will have the pleasure of working together again. Much love,

“One thing remains constant: Joan’s fantastic organizational skills, her event production savvy, and her own personal good taste”
Joan and I have worked on a wide range of spectacular events for a period of about fifteen years. There have been diverse styles, personalities, budgets, locations and seasons. But one thing has remained constant: Joan’s fantastic organizational skills, her event production savvy and her own personal good taste. These three qualities fuel excellent event production leadership. Solidly constructed, successful events need strong, even, responsible, knowledgeable people at the helm. This is Joan.

“Joan IS A CONSUMMATE PROFESSIONAL”
Joan is a consummate professional who handles every situation with both poise and grace. All of our Bandleaders regularly compliment her ability to seamlessly navigate all of the moving parts at an event. Tensions can run high on such important occasions but Joan knows how to keep everyone relaxed. Having the right knowledge, preparing properly, and staying devoted to the success of her celebrations makes her a wonderful partner for both her clients and vendors. Joan also has a unique ability to almost “pre-match” her clients with vendors who will best compliment their style. This ensures that no one wastes any time. Each time we sit down with a new couple, everyone can tell that the introduction was made with forethought. The office team at Starlight Music always has a wonderful time putting all of the details together with Joan as she is so organized, decisive and focused on each event. It is our pleasure to collaborate with her and I proudly recommend her to anyone seeking advice.
