Carly Saber Events

Additionally, Carly proactively picked up on the level of detail I wanted to be involved in, and made sure she catered to that throughout the planning process and on the wedding day. Carly has established herself as one of the BEST wedding planners in the wedding industry (other vendors want to work with her) and she has established amazing relationships with vendors in every category. When our photographers cancelled on us a few weeks before our wedding, Carly reached out to all her photographer connections in the industry to secure us a new photographer in just a couple days. Don't think this is going to happen to you? Trust me, neither did I! Given how insanely organized she is, it was no surprise when we saw the detailed wedding timeline with the schedule for the entire day including arrival times for all of the vendors, what time I needed to be done with hair/makeup, ceremony lineup time, etc. On the wedding day itself, Carly flawlessly orchestrated everything - we never had to worry about a single thing and could enjoy being in the moment with family and friends. It was evident to us that Carly truly loves what she does and is so incredibly talented and dedicated. Hands down our best decision we made during the entire wedding process was to work with her.

knew she was the one! On our first call, she listened to everything we wanted and we truly felt like she understood our vision. As soon as we started working with Carly, she immediately made things easy on us. She sent us vendor recommendations, budget spreadsheets and monthly checklists. We were originally supposed to get married in August 2020, but once COVID hit a few months before the wedding, we talked to Carly and made the decision to postpone the wedding to 2021. Carly was there for us every step of the way! She was so incredibly supportive and helped us work with all of our vendors to make sure all of our bases were covered. Carly was on top of everything, especially leading up to the wedding! She was one step ahead of us the entire time. She was in constant contact with all of our vendors and sent details & timelines to everyone before the wedding. Carly also set up time with us to walk through the timeline and what to expect on the day of, which was so incredibly helpful. Carly was always available and had open communication the whole time. If we ever needed anything, she was a simple text away! On the wedding day, Carly took care of everything! The entire wedding ran so smoothly without anything going wrong. Our wedding was perfect and we have Carly to thank for that! Carly is amazing! 10/10 would hire Carly again!!!

ouldn't have gotten through it without her. Thank you Carly!

work with because I made a lot of decisions on themes, colors, details as I went along. I knew what I didn't like but not always exactly what I did like. This is where Carly's excellence begins. She is so incredibly easy to work with, so patient, but also a true expert in what she does. She has experience working with the big vendors in Napa including the venues which made a HUGE difference for us planning our Napa wedding from Chicago, IL. She has done so many weddings that I trusted her completely on vendor recommendations and they did not disappoint.. in fact there were a couple I booked before I found Carly and I wish I had stuck to her list because all of her patterns were absolute rock stars! Her recommendations obviously stretch far beyond vendors because she also had the most perfect day of timeline, great suggestions on seating, day of event flow, procession details, everything! Anything I threw at her she would give me her best options and why (Important for me to know the why!) and then let me make the best decision. I truly enjoyed the planning process with Carly, her monthly checklists were exactly what I needed to stay on track, and her expertise is what every bride hopes to have when they are planning their perfect day. Thank you for everything Carly! XOX The Macs

did! Not only did she keep me on track in terms of monthly to-do lists, but she had the most valuable suggestions and advice for each detail and vendor of my wedding. I trusted Carly wholeheartedly, which made the process a breeze. Carly brought positivity and excitement to each step of the process, and was honest with me always on what I needed (and more importantly what I did not need) for our fairytale day without squashing any of my out-of-the-box ideas. I was so thankful that she had suggestions on things I could cut out of my budget, and I don't regret skipping any of those things. She is a total professional in creating a wedding timeline and executing it flawlessly. If there were any hiccups on the wedding day, I didn't even know! Her ability to see my vision and make it come to life was applauded by all of our guests for weeks on end. And most importantly, she made wedding planning so enjoyable with minimal stress. I would recommend her services to anyone and would urge booking her early in your planning process to get the most out of her wonderful suggestions. Thank you for everything, Carly!

limit and always made time to answer my questions, recommend vendors and problem solve with me. She kept all of my contracts organized, coordinated with all of the vendors and prepared everyone for the big day perfectly. Carly was always a step ahead of everyone. When it came to the wedding day - Carly absolutely AMAZED ME! How many brides can say not one thing went wrong during their wedding day? I have worked with so many event planners over the years, and I would choose Carly time and time again. Because I have a background in events, I am super detailed and A-type and know when things go wrong/right, so choosing a planner was a big decision for me. Carly did an exceptional job "being inside the brides head" and made my vision come to life so perfectly. Many of our guests mentioned "who is your event planner?! She killed it!". Carly was a joy to have by my side on the big day and it gave my such peace of mind to know she was running the show. I cannot recommend her highly enough for her organization, intelligence, creativity, and on-the-spot problem solving. I am SO thankful we chose Carly for our wedding day!

life saver and the best planner/executive producer you can find. We have talked with other planners, but NO ONE could beat what Carly was offering. She is... (1) the nicest human being in the world! She is always bubbly and ecstatic and easy to get along with. As a couple, we can be pretty introverted, but being with Carly made us want to open up and we just loved interacting with her. (2) super well organized and excellent communication skills. She sends out checklists and reminders to make sure that we are on track with all of the busy-ness of creating a wedding. Her emails are direct and full of important information, which was helpful in understanding the communications that were happening amongst the vendors. (3) the best executive producer!! Can we just say that our wedding was exactly the dream wedding that we wanted!! Like everything went perfectly and literally every single person who attended our wedding couldn't stop complimenting how wonderful and perfect the wedding was. Carly helped with coordinating all the COVID prereq requirements, all the last minute issues that came up (COVID regulations related), was calm and keeping us calm and relaxed, coordinated the entire wedding and guests that we didn't even notice any issues and got to enjoy ourselves, and kept us on schedule to have a great wedding! We can write about all the various things that came up that Carly and her experience really helped to smooth out and resolve, but we need you to trust Carly that she will do an above and beyond job! She has so many wedding and event experience and we can't say how professional and amazing she has been! So don't give it a second thought and go with Carly Saber Events!

of the vendors in the Napa Valley. My situation was a bit unique in that I was planning this wedding for my daughter who lived across the country and would only have a few days to visit the Napa Valley to help with the planning. With her schedule as a Naval Officer, marrying another Naval Officer, there was one day all year that they could get married. Additionally, the bride would not be available by phone or email during most of the planning. Carly assured me this would not be a problem, Carly introduced us to the best vendors! Her relationships with the vendors made me feel very secure in executing the contracts. She created an amazing spreadsheet and budget showing when all payments were due. Any questions I had were immediately addressed and resolved. I realized after the wedding that any worries I had were created in my mind because Carly had control of every detail! My daughter was able to come out for a few days and Carly arranged a preview of all the table designs, floral designs, signage, as well as a menu tasting, and cake tasting. We even got hair and makeup scheduled in this tight time frame. All of this made my daughter feel that she was getting the wedding she wanted and dreamed of, even though she had so little time to put into the planning. The execution on the day of the wedding was flawless! Even with the contact person at the venue changing several times in our months of planning, Carly had everything in order. The detailed timeline was a work of art-there is no other way to describe it! All of the planning created a beautiful wedding and reception! I even think that somehow Carly ordered the beautiful December day. Now, almost 18 months later, people still tell me what a beautiful wedding it was and how much fun they had. Most importantly, the bride and groom got exactly what they wanted. To me, as the mother of the bride, that was the most important aspect and Carly certainly delivered. I have another daughter and while I'm not pushing her to get engaged, I know that the first person I would contact to tell the news of the engagement would be Carly!
