I recommend hiring Beautiful Occasions, LLC for your wedding or other event. From the beginning, working with Kristina felt very personal and she’s so good at making sure you have the type of event you want and still stay on your budget. She’s fun and stayed relaxed and level-headed during a time which can be stressful. I also really appreciate her assistant who helped a lot on our wedding day. I was able to really enjoy my wedding day because I could put my trust in Kristina and our guests had the best time ever, we received so many compliments. One person even said he had been to a wedding at our venue before and ours was much more organized. I would definitely hire Kristina again!

Thanks so much for the kind words! Loved working with you and Luke :)
The best wedding planner I could ever ask for! We had the pleasure to work with Kristina. She is the best of the best! She is a genius when it comes to design and execution of large events. Our wedding day was so magical and breathtaking thanks to her. No details were untouched and every aspect of the event exceeded my expectations. Our guests were so impressed, they’re still raving about how it was the most beautiful and fun wedding they have ever attended. She is also very down to earth, incredibly warm, humble, and kind-hearted. She was able to make my vision a reality. You will feel confident knowing she’s there to make sure your day is a special one! It was a dream come true and we loved every single moment of our wedding day.

Thanks so much, Melissa! Loved every minute of your wedding!!
Kristina was an absolute dream to work with. From day one we felt the professionalism and kindness she spoke with and felt that was a perfect match for us and how we like to plan. We got in contact about a year away from our wedding date and we were able to plan a large part of the wedding planning process ourselves however we knew we needed someone on hand for the day of that knew the wedding day inside and out to ensure a peaceful day and that’s exactly what she was able to achieve. Kristina made herself available very easily via zoom or phone call and made sure we were not falling behind in our planning process as we got closer to the date. She organized our wedding rehearsal single handedly with our wacky families and maintained professionalism. Definitely would recommend her services!

Thank you so much for the kind words, Isabel and Ronaldo! Still can't believe how well everything turned out. So thankful we had the opportunity to be a part of your amazing wedding!
Any questions?
Kristina was a wonder to work with! She is such a great friend and guide throughout the process of wedding planning. She is very clear as to what her services include and is always open to communication. She really goes above and beyond for her clients, checking in on us often, even though we only hired her for 'month of coordination'. Kristina guided us through our meetings, and they were a breeze. She comes prepared with questions about details you may have forgot about or didn't even think about but are so important! She ensures that she knows what the vision is, so that you don't have to worry on the wedding day. On the day of my wedding, she made sure everything was in order and I didn't hear any questions or concerns, so I was able to fully enjoy the day without a worry! Planning a wedding can be a very lonely process, but Kristina is the friend that will come through for you!

Kristina did an amazing job as our wedding planner! She was readily available, answered any questions we may have had, and met with us several times a month to ensure we were on track for our wedding timeline. She did an excellent job taking the lead on our wedding day to ensure everything ran smoothly, which allowed us to enjoy our special day celebrating with friends and family. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding/event planner!!

Thanks for the kind words :) It was such a joy working with you both. Your wedding was a dream to plan and loved every second of it!
Kristina is such an amazing planner! The communication was excellent from the time of booking all the way to the big day. She made everything run so smoothly. On our wedding day she took great care of us. She brought us food, water, desserts, and anything else that we needed. Our venue was large and she would walk back and forth between the ceremony and reception areas, all the way down a huge hill and then all the way back up. She works so hard and is seriously the BEST and I would highly recommend her to anyone!

Aw thanks Rachel! Loved working with you both. Thanks for letting me be a part of your big day!
Kristina is absolutely wonderful. When I started planning my wedding, I was overwhelmed with the amount of planning I had ahead of me. Luckily, I found Kristina and she was so helpful in assisting me with everything. She gave me wonderful recommendations for vendors that she’s worked with, she was empathetic and understanding. She communicated with all my vendors and made sure to followup so I didn’t have to worry about it. Kristina helped me look over all my contracts and read all the fine print so I wouldn’t have any surprises. The day of the wedding, she made sure everything ran smoothly and when there were little hiccups she ensured everything worked out. I couldn’t have done it without her, she help me execute my vision and brought it to life. If you’re planning a wedding, Kristina is the person you need.

Thank you so much for the kind words, Shinnie! Loved every second of your wedding. It was a dream to work with you and Nhi!
From the moment Kristina stepped in I felt completely at ease with her expertise and level of communication. She allowed me and my now husband to enjoy ourselves in the weeks leading up to the wedding. From communicating with vendors to making sure we had a checklist for the easy to forget items, the entire process was seamless. There’s so much that goes into a wedding but she truly made our day enjoyable. I was such a happy bride, EXCITED and eager to get married, not stressed or anxious. Our wedding was one to remember and it wouldn’t have been possible without the help of Kristina. Thank you!!

Thank YOU, Cynthia! You were a joy to work with and I loved how everything came together so beautifully :)
I had the absolute pleasure of working with Kristina from Beautiful Occasions LLC at La Reve in Elk Grove, California. As the DJ for Shinnie & Nhi's wedding, I was impressed with Kristina’s exceptional organizational skills and keen attention to detail. Throughout the entire day, she ensured seamless communication among all vendors, making the process smooth and stress-free.
During our final call sync, Kristina's meticulous attention to detail was evident. She anticipated every need and managed the day's events with precision and care, going above and beyond in her role.
Working with Kristina was a joy. Her friendly personality put everyone at ease, yet she maintained a clear focus on getting things done efficiently. Her professionalism made the entire experience enjoyable and productive, qualities that are greatly appreciated by fellow vendors like DJs and lighting companies.
I highly recommend Kristina and Beautiful Occasions LLC to anyone seeking a skilled wedding planner. Her expertise, commitment, and genuine passion for her work contribute to making special events memorable and flawless. Thank you, Kristina, for your outstanding work on Shinnie & Nhi's wedding day!

Thank you so much for your kind words, Thien! You were amazing to work with, as well!
Kristina is amazing to work with. She was on top of her emails. She gave me updated agendas so I, as the photographer, know what to expect on the day of. She was amazing organizing the whole wedding. She was running around and literally setting up. Also, she even helped cleaned up the reception so the bride and groom can enjoy their wedding. I haven’t seen much wedding coordinator doing that, so I admire her from afar for going above and beyond. She was so kind to make sure us vendors had food to eat. I definitely recommend having Kristina as your wedding coordinator. Your wedding will run smoothly with her guidance.

Thank you so much, Maigia! Can’t wait to work more weddings with you :)
It was amazing to work with Kristina as a fellow vendor! She was so kind and responsive and just a positive light to the day. We look forward to working with her for future events.
Kristina is an absolute all star! From the initial planning stages to our big day, she turned our ideas into reality and never batted an eye at any of our requests. Her attention to the atmosphere was spot-on, creating a vibe that perfectly matched what we had in mind. What really stood out was Kristina’s commitment. No matter how many emails we sent her way, she handled them all with patience and a positive attitude. It was clear she cared about making our day special and stress-free. Her responsiveness and adaptability made the planning process way smoother than we expected. Kristina is the kind of wedding planner who brings professionalism and a personal touch together effortlessly. She’s reliable and down-to-earth, and her incredibly positive attitude never wavers. We're so happy we chose both Beautiful Occasions and Kristina for our special day!

Thanks so much for the sweet words, Kelly! You and Desmond were so great to work with :)
I recently got married on 04/20/2024 in Walnut Grove. I began my search for a wedding planner through The Knot and came across Kristina's page. I was instantly drawn to her website and reached out to her for further information. I appreciated that she got back to me in a timely manner and scheduled a meeting. After our initial call, I instantly knew I wanted her to be our planner for our wedding. We hired Kristina for her Full Service planning since we needed to heavily rely on Kristina's suggestions and recommended vendors in the area. Kristina was organized, thorough and always went the extra mile for us when planning our wedding. She was communicative through emails, meetings, and arranged a detailed timeline for our wedding day. She really alleviated any stresses or worries that I had during the months leading up to the big day. Fast forward to the wedding day and I couldn’t have imagined the day without her. Not only was she there several hours before the ceremony setting up, she also stepped into roles (bustling my dress, grabbing us refreshments/appetizers after the ceremony and picking up money during our money dance) when I didn’t expect her to. Let's be real, weddings are expensive, and wedding planners are an investment, but they’re so worth it! It is important to hire a planner that is professional, organized and supportive and Kristina was that and then some. You won’t be disappointed with her services and she was by far one of the best decisions we made during the planning process.

Hey Jamie,
Your wedding was amazing and we loved it so much! :) Thanks for letting us be a part of it and for the kind words!
Kristina is hands down the best! My husband and I are eternally grateful for her help making our wedding the most magical day of our lives. She was always amazing about communicating with us throughout the process, and keeping us on track. Plus all of her vendor recommendations were absolutely perfect. She understood the vibe we wanted, and made it a reality. As far as we know nothing went wrong, and as far as our guests know nothing went wrong. Not to brag, but every guest said it was one of the best weddings they’d ever been to. Seriously, five stars is not enough. She is an all star. Hire her, you will not regret it! 10s 10s 10s across the board!

Hi Jaclyn, Thank you so much for the kind words! :) We loved every second of your wedding!
I reached out to Kristina back in September of last year after booking my venue and initially was a little worried since Kristina was new to the business and didn’t have much experience but after a few interviews with other wedding planners I went ahead with Kristina as I felt like she understood what I wanted and reassured me that we’d make a great team together.
During our initial discussions, Kristina emphasized her capability in various tasks such as table setup, decor arrangement, and she would oversee cleanup. However, a few months later, she expressed a need for additional assistance, which contradicted her earlier claims of having a partner and she was also receiving supplemental support from the venue.
Despite my attempts to address this discrepancy and find a resolution, communication became increasingly strained. Then, Kristina began excluding me from important communications and decisions, causing more frustration and concern.
Following a discussion where Kristina apologized for her actions and reassured me that we were fine, she abruptly terminated our contract via email just two days later, saying “we just aren’t a good fit”.
This unexpected termination has left me in a challenging position, necessitating the urgent search for a new wedding planner with less than 7.5 months remaining until the wedding date.
Throughout this ordeal, I have been disappointed by Kristina's lack of professionalism and effective communication.
Response from the Vendor on 05/07/2024
Hi Melanie,
Thank you again for your feedback. I do not accept any behavior of harassment from clients including repeated texts that supersede reasonable levels of communication, general lack of cooperation, and breaking the terms of our fully...
executed contract and your vendors’ contracts which lead us to part ways. I hope you can understand. Please reach out if you’d like to discuss further. I’d be more than happy to do so!
If not, I wish you the best in your planning and a wonderful wedding day for you and Michael!
I recently had the pleasure of working with Kristina to plan the wedding of my dreams, and I cannot express how grateful I am for her exceptional services. From the initial consultation to the last dance, every moment was flawlessly executed, making our special day truly magical. Her attention to detail and creativity exceeded our expectations, and her ability to capture our unique style and personality was truly remarkable. The level of dedication and passion she brought to the planning process was evident in every aspect of our wedding. I cannot thank Kristina enough for their exceptional work and dedication to making our wedding day perfect. If you're seeking a wedding planner who goes above and beyond to turn your dreams into reality, look no further.
I stumbled upon Beautiful Occasions just a month before my big day, following a coordinator dropout. It turned out to be a stroke of luck. Kristina was very enthusiastic and organized. Her proactive coordination with vendors and consistent communication kept me in the loop. Her emotional support added an extra layer of assurance during stressful time. While the wedding wasn't flawless, her ability to work around unexpected challenges showcased her professionalism and dedication. Grateful for her efforts in ensuring the day was memorable and special. We cannot thank her enough.

Thanks so much for your review, Iya! It was such a joy working with you and the wedding was so beautiful! I cannot thank you enough for the opportunity to be a part of your special day.
Kristina was an amazing investment for our big day. She provided more value to me than I felt she charged!! Well worth it. She was 5 steps ahead of me the whole time, helped keep everything organized and streamlined, super quick communication, really cares that you and your family have no stress on the big day! Eased vendor communications and we had fun along the way!!
Kristina is hands down THE BEST person ever for wedding planning! She made everything so stress free and fun, it was AMAZING. Every little detail was taken care of, even things I didn’t even think of, or, when I did think of it, she already had it taken care of! She was always easily accessible both by email and text, even on the weekends, which was awesome and super comforting especially leading up to the wedding day. My wedding was better than I could’ve ever dreamed of and we heard nothing but good reviews about the whole experience from our guests. They couldn’t believe how well everything flowed and how pretty both the venue and decorations and flowers were. I’d HIGHLY recommend Kristina to anyone 10,000%! She’s a one of a kind person who really makes sure you’re taken care of for your special day.
Kristina IS amazing! amazing! amazing! She gives you the best advice on everything from the couple's look, the attire, the theme, your vision, the list goes on. Working with Kristina was the best decision we made throughout our wedding process - she was supportive and created a wedding that was so beautiful really capturing us as a couple in ways I could have never dreamed about! All our guests were so impressed with the precision of how the wedding went, the amazing decor, and flower arrangements. Everyone said "it was one of the best weddings they've ever been to." Kristina and her team were absolutely outrageously amazing!!!!
Kristina was amazing to work with both pre-wedding and on the wedding day. She is always responsive and is the type of person to just gets things done. She always kept our budget in mind and helped with keeping all of the vendor contracts organized. Our big day went off without a hitch, and she totally helped the overall vision come to life. Kristina is the best! Will happily recommend her to other brides!

Thanks so much for the kind words! You and David were so wonderful to work with. I'm so happy with how the wedding turned out and thrilled you all loved it too!
Kristina was able to jump in and plan my 30th birthday party. She was attentive to the details and tied up all of the loose ends so the event came together in a cohesive way! She took care of logistics and details that I hadn’t thought of so I could relax and enjoy the presence of my friends and family throughout the event. She kept the event on schedule and everyone was happy! I will definitely hire her for my next event.
Response from the Vendor on 03/31/2023
Aw thanks for the sweet words! It was so fun planning your birthday party! Let me know if you ever need help with another event :)
Kristina was incredible! I knew right away from our first intro call that she was going to be a perfect fit to plan our wedding. She was professional, efficient, and best of all very responsive any time I reached out or needed help. Her team was always happy to take tasks off my plate, and handled pretty much everything down to the most minute details. She made sure our special day ran smoothly, which allowed us to really live in the moment and enjoy it. I am so thankful for her and cannot recommend Kristina enough!
Response from the Vendor on 03/03/2023
