A Day Like No Other

Jutta made our day incredible and unforgettable. We both would have been completely lost and out of our depth without her expertise and attention to detail. Our friends and family have continued to rave about the wedding to this day! Thank you to the whole team (Jutta, Haneen, and Quan) for making this happen and for the joy that you've brought to this amazing experience.

Jutta has worked with us tirelessly since 2019 (through two COVID postponements) to make our dream wedding at Nestldown a reality. From the very beginning, we wanted a detail-oriented planner that would help keep us on track and Jutta did that and much more. She provided the majority of the referrals for vendors we ended up working with for our wedding day and helped us think through both logistical and design aspects of our wedding that we would have never considered without her guidance. Throughout the planning process, Jutta would check in with us to ensure our planning was on track and we constantly referred to her extremely detailed wedding timeline to help inform our decisions. On our actual wedding day, we were able to completely let go of any logistical worries and enjoy ourselves. If anything went wrong the day of, we certainly never heard about it and we’re confident that Jutta and her team handled our day expertly. We can’t recommend working with Jutta and her team enough!

The wedding turned out beautifully, more than we can imagine. Her choices in the vendors were top notch. In addition we greatly appreciated the teams assistance. They took all the stress away from the day. Everything was top notch and she certainly knew her vendors!

I can’t speak highly enough of Jutta and her extensive knowledge of wedding coordinating and planning. I was told by many on the day of my wedding that I was the “calmest bride ever” and I attribute so much of that to knowing Jutta was in charge of the day. I did her partial coordination/planning package for our wedding in October 2021. Jutta was very knowledgeable and accessible during the 6-9 months before the wedding and she was extremely helpful in recommending vendors. We ended up choosing the majority of the vendors she recommended (all of whom were fabulous, professional, and a good price). In the 3 months leading up to the wedding we really hit the ground running and she was on top of it sending me detailed timelines and going over each of my vendor contracts thoroughly to make sure that all of the logistics would work out. The day of the wedding, we had a lot of variables that were in the air because of weather changes (it was raining and originally parts of the reception were supposed to be outside). Her and her assistant, Stephanie, were able to make changes on the fly without me hardly ever having to worry about it. The day was truly seamless and my now husband and I just got to enjoy the day. On top of being excellent at what she does, we adored her as a person. She means serious business (which you want in someone leading the charge!) but she is also incredibly kind, caring, and thoughtful. You can tell she does this work because she truly loves it and cares for the couples that she works with. Thank you Jutta for a magical day!

Jutta was my ROCK...the rock to the entire wedding celebration preparations and smooth execution! I could not have planned and executed our wedding celebration without Jutta's organized, thoughtful, and honest support! Due to COVID-19, we had to delay our wedding celebrations and hold an event after we got married during the pandemic. Jutta supported us for two years! She and her team not only made the planning easier, but the day was SO SMOOTH! She truly believes in giving brides (and couples) the best wedding day possible and she delivers! My husband and I are forever grateful for her and her team's support! I cannot thank Jutta and her team enough. I am a Type A person and need things in my control. But I was so confident and comfortable with Jutta taking charge that day because we went over everything we wanted and she delivered. We also had so many last minute changes and all Jutta would say is "No problem" or "Whatever the bride and groom wants, they get" (within reason of course :P). A Day Like No Other is worth every penny if not more! You will NOT REGRET working with Jutta and her team!!

We brought Jutta and her team very last minute and they were absolutely amazing! They were great at accommodating us and making sure we had every single detailed thought through and planned. They were reliable, responsive, patient, and just on top of EVERYTHING! I 10000% recommend them :)

My wife and I hired Jutta to be our full service wedding planner and we’re so happy that we did! Jutta expertly guided us through the entire wedding planning process from venue and vendor selection, to wedding design and decor, and day of logistics and coordination. She was great at both the high level picture as well as making sure we got the small details right to make our day perfect. Her expertise and network saved us a ton of time during the planning process and she ensured that we stayed on track with all planning timelines. Perhaps most importantly, it was on the day of the wedding that her years of experience truly shined. She and her amazing assistants ensured all our vendors were in the right place at the right time. And in spite of strong gusty winds and unseasonably bad weather, everything went off perfectly seamlessly from our and our guests perspectives. You’ll be in good hands with Jutta handling your wedding planning and coordination. Thank you for everything!

We serendipitous-ly met Jutta (A Day Like No Other) while wine tasting at our wedding venue (Thomas Fogarty Winery). She was organizing a wedding for that weekend and was at the venue prepping. She introduced herself to us, showing us her timeline for the wedding and I was immediately blown away. She was able to plan the wedding day down to almost 5 minute increments, kept to an incredibly timely and organized timetable. Honestly, that is what got me and I emailed her that night asking if she was available for my wedding day (9/1/19). After talking with her we decided to go with the month of coordination. It worked well for us as I booked most the vendors myself and felt comfortable handling most of the coordination leading up to the big day. Even though I only had Jutta "the month of " she was ALWAYS available for questions and concerns. Throughout the planning process I would email her contracts for vendors and she would review them to make sure there weren't major holes. Come the month of the wedding Jutta and I emailed weekly, to ensure every detail of our wedding was executed perfectly. Jutta and A Day Like No Other went above and beyond my expectations with our wedding (everything went smoothly and flawlessly) but we also started the wedding 15 minutes AHEAD of schedule. This was amazing because we were able to gain 15 minutes of dancing at the end. The best part of Jutta and her team was the consideration she showed my brother. My brother is severely developmentally delayed, in a wheelchair, incontinent, etc. Jutta and her team showed extreme sensitivity to Patrick, his whereabouts, and his comfort. Patrick was not able to be on the main lawn for family photos, so Jutta ensured he was available down in the Hill House for pictures. Lastly, we had many left over floral centerpieces after the wedding, so Jutta donated them to a local memory care facility. This wasn't in the plan, but I was so appreciative of her thoughtfulness. Jutta and her team are amazing. I consider myself very type-A and even I was blown away by her organization skills. My mom said it perfectly "she should charge more, she was worth every penny and more!"

We had a fantastic experience with Jutta and her team at A Day Like No Other! From day one Jutta was responsive, sharp, professional, and ready to take on the event. I could tell she was so organized and could take charge of everything (the beast that wedding planning is!), which was exactly what we needed, and Jutta delivered exactly that! It was scheduled to rain on our day the weeks leading up to it (and our Plan A was primarily outdoors), and Jutta made sure to prep us for Plan B (layout of the party, and providing umbrellas to guests) - and I'm so glad she did because it did indeed rain! Despite the weather, the wedding was still perfect and beautiful, and seamlessly run. It was truly a day like no other. :) Jutta is experienced, professional, great to work with, and organized - you will be in terrific hands if you hire her!

We started working with Jutta in January 2018 for our September 2018 wedding. Not knowing where to start, Jutta made our wedding planning journey a lot more manageable. We found her at a time when we were struggling to find the right venue. We wanted a venue that was both easily accessible and had access to nature. We wanted something modern and elegant, with great views. We also had a budget that we were determined to stick to. Jutta ended up finding us the perfect venue: modern, classic, with views that we got compliments on the entire night. Jutta was there with us every step of the way for nine months, from helping arrange our detailed schedule, to helping choose my dress and my bridesmaids' dresses, to recommending our florist, DJ, and make up artist. Jutta is always extremely detail oriented, and gave us insights into things we didn't even think of, such as how to fold the table name cards to ensure they don't fall flat during the reception. She was also able to accommodate last minute emergencies, such as helping my husband sew on a button that had fallen after our ceremony. Jutta is always super responsive and very professional. I had full trust that come wedding day, she would make sure it would go off without a hitch. She has a range of experiences with many different types of weddings, and we fully recommend her. Thank you Jutta for helping with our big day! We truly could not have done it without you.

We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Jutta as our full-time wedding planner and she's definitely the major reason our wedding ceremony came to life! We're a busy couple living in the Bay Area - Jutta took us through the whole business of planning the wedding and made it feel like a breathe. From the moment we contacted her ~8 months before the date (we only had a venue secured) through the day after the wedding, she was truly a lifesaver. Her organization skills, communication and responsiveness are truly outstanding. She'd send us reminders in case something required our attention and whatever question or request we had - would always respond within minutes even to late-night emails. Jutta took on majority of coordination with vendors - from advising on picking the vendors, to handling all of coordination details and making sure the week of and the day of runs super smoothly. I (the bride) really like the French country style and Jutta went to incredible lengths to arrange the table decor to be just perfect! She also helped to guide and suggest possible ideas in the areas of the planning we were unsure of. Jutta took care of every single details - from finding a vintage typewriter and bike for decor to hand-crafting the signs herself. On the day of, Jutta and her amazing assistants made sure that the entire day proceeded smoothly according to pre-planned (5mins intervals!) timeline. We could fully enjoy the moment knowing that Jutta takes care of all details. She stayed all the way through the night and made sure that gifts, flowers and other details will be taken care of. Besides outstanding professionalism, Jutta is wonderfully calm and caring person with a keen sense of humor. If you want your wedding day to be truly outstanding - you can't go wrong with A Day Like No Other. Thank you, Jutta!

We contacted Jutta just 8 weeks before our wedding and she came through with flying colors!! We had an amazing day! Jutta took the time to find out about our "style" and was keen to understand what would make a perfect day for our wedding celebration. And then she went to work! Wow! In short order we had a list of vendors with notes and recommendations on each, we received a preliminary timeline, advice on a variety of issues and the comfort of knowing Jutta was totally on it! Her follow through is impeccable - something that was super important to us as we were both traveling and busy with other projects. She patiently and often reminded us of decisions and deadlines and kept us all on track. The preliminary timeline was updated during the planning process and we had a very detailed plan prior to the day of our wedding - no last minute surprises. Several of our vendors commented that Jutta is one of the best event planners that they work with! We threw Jutta a few curve balls, some creating last minute adjustments, but she truly hit a home run for us. We are so grateful that we hired Jutta and we are delighted to highly recommend A Day Like No Other.

We did our month-of planning with Jutta who was very thorough and organized. She guided us with just the right advice. The true hero of our wedding day was Angeliki who was helpful, warm, and efficient. We are forever thankful to Jutta, and especially Angeliki, for making our wedding day seamless and stress free. Highly recommended

Our wedding was super memorable thanks to Jutta and A Day Like No Other. As an intercultural couple, we wanted a wedding that reflects our individual backgrounds while having the style of a California summer outdoor wedding - not an easy thing to achieve. What made it extra challenging was that we had only gotten engaged just 7 months prior to the wedding date. Without Jutta's help we couldn't have been able to pull it off, let alone a truly fantastic wedding that our friends and family continue to gush about! Given the shortened timelines, her suggestions on the right vendors were highly valuable and all spot on. Her recommendations are all super high quality but she also kept our budget in mind, letting us know where we can achieve the proper tradeoffs to get what's most important to us while keeping budget inline. Her deep knowledge about weddings ensured that any running around to find the right vendors was kept to a minimum. However, the most difficult thing we had to do was to put all the pieces together - how do we include all the cultural bits, from visually putting the decors together to fitting them into a strict timeline without clashing and overwhelming the whole wedding. Her meticulous work of mapping out all the details and her ability to identify how things should go together made the whole process very straightforward. And she was super patient when we moved bits and pieces around to accommodate different requests. After we had finalized the plans, she also communicated with all the vendors and the venue's day of coordinator to ensure that everyone is on top of things. On the wedding day itself, Jutta's assistant, Kelsey, was super attentive and cheerful. We were constantly reminded that we should enjoy the special day and not to worry about the details. Indeed, we didn't! We simply lived through the fairy tale wedding and reception. Literally everything went as discussed without a hitch. Kelsey was there to see the wrap up of the evening, and everything was taken care of for us. We wholeheartedly recommend Jutta and her team to anyone wanting a fantastic wedding. Trust us, simply having the venue's coordinator alone is not enough. We started out the whole process thinking that we could do it ourselves, but the reality is that a wedding is truly a day like no other, and without Jutta's attentiveness and expertise as well as Kelsey's support, our wedding wouldn't have gone nearly as well as we had hoped. Jutta, we can't express how deeply grateful we are for all the help and guidance you have provided us during the whole process. You and your team made it the most special day of our lives! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!
