Nicki Wolfe Events + Spaces

If I could leave Nicki a 10 star review I would. She held our hand and guided us through not one, but TWO weddings: the small, Covid-style wedding we had to pivot to at the last minute in 2020 and then the big party we had originally dreamed of a year later. Throughout this two year marathon she was there for us whenever and however we needed her. In what could have been an insanely stressful time, she helped us to feel calm and organized and to actually enjoy the wedding planning process. After every meeting with her, my husband and I talked about how much we love her. And when the time came for our big wedding party, Nicki made the entire weekend feel seamless and easy and fun. It was everything we had been hoping for! And many of our guests commented on how amazing Nicki was; how she seemed to think of and take care of absolutely everything. Nicki is just one of the most thoughtful, creative, easygoing, hardworking, fun, and bad-ass women you'll meet. We felt so lucky to have her by our side as we planned our wedding(s).

We absolutely loved working with Nicki. She was so patient, helped me work through my concerns and hesitations and provided great advice whether it be the overall design and vision or working through the flow. She is very personable and clearly gets the job. It was really helpful that she has been in the business for awhile and had a lot of great connections and recommendations. She was always available when I needed a quick answer and was easy to schedule longer conversations. I did not worry about a thing on our wedding day because I had so much trust in her and knew she would take care of us. Which she absolutely did! So many of my friends and family also noticed her thoughtfulness, professionalism and expertise on the wedding day. She literally handled everything. Would highly recommend! We miss her already!

Nicki was a godsend. Could not have imagined doing this event without her. Perfection in everything she did while taking care of details constantly with a smile and caring attitude. Comments were off the charts in terms of the beauty of the flow of the wedding to the gracefulness of all that was seen. We are so grateful for absolutely every detail she attended to, every spreadsheet item entered, changed and fulfilled! Nicki made the wedding come together in every way that created a gathering of pure sweetness, joy and lasting memories.

Nicki was an irreplaceable part of our wedding weekend and a true joy to work with. Her talent for visual design and making an event come to life through thoughtful touches is beyond anything we've ever seen. We started working with Nicki right after we signed our contract with Ru's Farm in Healdsburg. She has planned literally dozens of weddings there and knows the setup cold (and is friends with the owner!), so we felt comfortable that she would be able to handle any issues in the lead up and day-of (which was, in fact, true!). She helped us assemble an A+ team of vendors, many of whom she had worked with before, which further strengthened our confidence (and also, some of them gave us discounts because they love working with Nicki!). She also helped us bring our vision to life, even though we had trouble articulating it at the beginning. We trusted her artistic / visual sense entirely, and deferred to her on many decisions around color / tables etc which we didn't have a strong point of view on. The whole thing came together wonderfully in the end, and we got so many compliments on every single aspect of the event. And, Nicki helped us stick to our budget by identifying things that were / were not worth spending money on, in line with our overall goals. She also had a number of table-related items that she brought for us for free (eg runners, table numbers, box for cards, etc.) - it was so nice not to have to purchase all of that ourselves. She did all of our signage and table cards for an extra fee that was 100% worth it - the signs looked lovely and again, so nice not to have to worry about that part of the wedding. Finally, Nicki was FUN to work with. She has a great sense of humor and genuinely loves what she does. My favorite Nicki moment was when I was stressing out about day-of makeup, and she sent me a video of her applying her own makeup with hilarious commentary to show me that I could, in fact, do my makeup on my own if I wanted to. During the day of, she kept us calm and laughing, and she was so kind with little touches throughout (e.g., packing up some desserts for us because we didn't have time to eat them). We had so much fun working with Nicki and would do it again in a heartbeat. The only thing I would note is that Nicki dives into the details at various points throughout the process but not at all points. Therefore, if you are type A like me, you will find yourself doing a lot of the organization / reconciliation in between Nicki's deep dives every few months. I didn't mind, because I so valued Nicki's creative talent and knew that my own OCD would mean I would end up doing a lot of the organization anyways. And, Nicki would always respond whenever I texted her, so I never felt that we were out of sync. Bottom line, we were SO happy working with Nicki and would highly recommend her!

I was really glad we worked with Nicki & her staff for our ranch wedding. She handled a lot of the details and made sure everything ran super smoothly the day-of. She did a great job of taking care of stuff and not "bothering" us with it. She was a great help with family dynamics, and that was a huge. If you are considering a planner, Nicki is a great way to go. Our day was truly special. <3

Hiring Nicki was the best decision we made throughout the whole wedding planning process. We don't live in CA so we leaned on Nicki a LOT for recommendations on all of our vendors and they all wound up being wonderful. There were times when I would frantically reach out to Nicki for help or suggestions and she was always cool and calm, and ready with the perfect response. She had a very thorough document that really helped us with all the details that we wouldn't have thought of on our own. Nicki is so personable that I felt like I had known her for years, even though we didn’t actually meet until a couple months prior to the wedding. I am still so impressed that she is so professional yet super fun. She did a fantastic job of keeping things on schedule and working with our vendors. She also had so many details covered (dealing with all the signage; providing blankets for guests; saving us time and money by letting us use her table numbers; etc.) - she is definitely an expert in this field. Honestly, my husband and I are just so thankful to Nicki for all of the work that she did for us - our wedding day wouldn’t have been nearly as beautiful and fun without her. We’ve gotten so many compliments on our wedding and it’s all because of Nicki! I truly loved working with her! The only negative: That we live on opposite ends of the country. I wish she was my neighbor so I could see her everyday - she really is an amazing person!

Nicki is awesome. She was so helpful through the entire process — from vendor selection to managing the timeline and “to-dos”, to day of coordination— she was on top of it all. Really appreciate that she picked up on all the little things that needed to happen to create a seamless and memorable weekend! We are so grateful for her professionalism, humor, patience, hard work, creativity and kindness! I could not recommend her more! Thank you Nicki!
