I worked with Queen and her staff on 7/20/24 At Kohls mansion. It was a big wedding and Queen made it easy on all of us vendors to do our job. It was an ease working with Queen.
From the beginning prior to event all info was coming out.
We also did Zoom meetings which were very helpful and here we were able to know each other.
Very detailed.
I was the DJ for this event.
Our wedding day was amazing! We could not have asked for a more perfect day, and that is all thanks to the impeccable work and expertise of Queen Quiocho! She took our vision and our dreams and made them into a reality. She was an incredible guide and resource throughout the planning process. Her pleasant attitude and demeanor eased our wedding anxiety and made everything feel easy. She is really a master at her craft. We wholeheartedly recommend her services for any special day. She is the best! Thank you, Queen!
I had envisioned a stress-free wedding planning process, which is why I hired Queen's Creative Events as my full-service wedding planner and day-of coordinator. Their glowing reviews and our initial meeting with Queen instilled confidence. Unfortunately, the reality didn't match expectations.
I specifically wanted a planner to handle design, vendor research, communication, and pricing comparisons. However, I found myself doing most of the heavy lifting, which added significant stress to an already busy time in my life.
While Queen suggested some vendors, many didn't seem well-researched nor did they align with our pre-discussed budget, except for the fantastic DJ that was recommended. Throughout the planning process, it felt like Queen was more focused on "following my lead" rather than taking initiative as a full-service planner.
We addressed these concerns four months before the wedding, but by then, a lot of groundwork was set. Thankfully, the last few months were more productive. Queen helped with the timeline, layout, meal selections, and acted as a liaison with the venue.
The wedding day wasn't entirely smooth sailing either. The venue had questions that seemed like they should have been handled by the planner but instead were handled by my mother and family. There were also mishaps, like incorrect ceremony seating setup and she initially brought the wrong plate chargers. Surprisingly, family and friends ended up placing most of the table cards, a task I expected the planner's team to manage. It seemed she needed a larger team to help with day of set up.
Despite the challenges, the wedding itself was beautiful, filled with love, and everyone had a great time. If you're planning a large event and envision a planner who takes charge of design, vendor selection, and execution while you make final decisions, I would recommend looking elsewhere. While Queen's Creative Events did add value to the planning process and day-of coordination, the level of service and value fell short of what I expected from a full-service package.
Any questions?
Queen is truly an amazing planner and person, she made us feel immediately comfortable with our choices and gave us support and suggestions when we needed them. Queen went above and beyond our expectations and we are so incredibly thankful she was on our team with planning our wedding.
Queen was our Month-of Planner and Coordinator for our July 2023 wedding of 100+ guests in Mill Valley and it was one of the best decisions we made. We are so grateful for her and everything she did for us–we would have been lost, stressed, confused, overwhelmed had it not been for her presence and expertise. Queen is incredible: a consummate professional and expert, highly skilled, warm and caring, funny, and calming and reassuring. Queen’s Creative Events team delivered above and beyond the months leading up to our wedding through the day of our wedding. If you’re in the Bay Area and are looking for a Planner / Coordinator, Queen’s Creative Events is your answer. We cannot thank Queen enough, and highly recommend Queen’s Creative Events!
From our very first meeting, Queen was warm, friendly, and knowledgeable, and also very understanding. When our three-month mark started, Queen was right on schedule in communicating with us and sharing all of the resources available to us through her services. Aisleplanner, an online tool provided by Queen, was super helpful for us to be able to use for our own planning purposes and also in being able to share the seating chart and contact with Queen and her team. She kept us on schedule with major milestones, check-in calls, answered many of our questions and also brought up many considerations that never crossed our minds (neither of us having wedding planning experience lol). Apart from being organized and helping us to project manage, Queen’s warmth and calming presence was deeply appreciated by the both of us. We had a few ideals and vision guiding our wedding that meant more freedom but also a lot more DIYing and project management. To have an expert who is kind and reassuring like Queen on our team meant a great deal to us and had a huge positive impact on our planning and our day. Even if we felt overwhelmed coming to a call, things always felt more manageable and reasonable after our conversations with Queen.
For our offsite rehearsal, Queen even rearranged the furniture of the space we were in to replicate the ceremony setup! She guided us through many little details that would have been easily overlooked, while keeping it light and fun for everyone. Our sisters, who officiated the wedding, and our parents all commented during and after what a difference it makes to have Queen guide us, to have someone with that caliber of experience on our day.
Finally, on our day itself, we had the best time of our lives surrounded by loved ones and a big reason why we were able to enjoy our day as carefree as we did was due to the magic of Queen and her team. Queen ensured everything went as smoothly as possible, checked in with us on decisions that were dependent on our feelings and mood at that moment, and she took such good care of us to make sure we were eating and drinking enough. She and her team were flexible to adapt to unexpected circumstances or situations (which inevitably arise), and had the preparation and experience to avoid and mitigate any issues in advance. With our budget, Queen and her team stepped up in ways that are beyond words–we are so incredibly grateful. Thank you so much Queen for making our day as special as it was with your superpowers!!! We appreciate you so much and our families are also very grateful for you making our day.
Queen was our wedding planner last year (very overdo review!) and we truly cannot state enough just how incredible she was. Our photographer cancelled a month before, and within a day she had found us a new one. Every step of the way she was with us and made our wedding day as stress-free as humanly possible. I know I will recommend Queen for any of my friends getting married in the future!
Queen as our wedding coordinator was truly fantastic. Her eye for detail is extraordinary. The tools she provided us from day one of consultation to the day of our wedding made my wife and I feel much ease throughout the entire process. She exudes such professionalism, friendliness, and warmth when dealing with her clients. My wife and I also immensely appreciated her flexibility and initiative.
I WISH I COULD GIVE QUEEN A MILLION STARS! Queen and her staff did an amazing job helping to coordinate my two weddings. Queen was always available, on top of things, resourceful, kind, and was always a step ahead of things! She was always punctual, got things running smoothly even with my large wedding. She was just on it n she knows what she’s doing! Very very experienced! Even my guests called her “the MVP” her and her team will go above and beyond for you, trust me! I will miss her and our planning meetings! She exceeded my expectations.
Queen has been an amazing coordinator for our wedding. She is always on top of things and she is very detailed in what she does.
I was so stressed out because I had no idea what I need to do to plan the wedding, but she guided me with every detail and even gave amazing ideas and recommendations. Her professional, long years of experience in her field definitely shows when you work with her. She’s so friendly, caring, and genuine that I am a bit sad it was over.
The day-of, I was so stressed out if everything is in order. Having Queen there drove all my worries away. I was able to just focus on enjoying the day.
Thanks Queen for making our day so special.
Highly recommended. You won’t regret it working with Queen!
My husband and I were very happy with Queen's wedding planning and execution services and most definitely recommend her for your SF bay area wedding!
Queen is an absolute pleasure to work with - she's very amiable and professional. She helped us pull our wedding together in less than 5 months (we reached out to her at the end of May and by mid October of the same year, we got married). She helps you stay on track with all of the intricacies of planning. And more importantly, saves you whenever a crisis occurs (ours included finding out 3 days before the event that the oven at the venue was broken). Most importantly, she makes sure your day runs smoothly and on time. She shouldered all burdens of coordinating vendors with so they would know what they needed to do when and where. It meant that my husband, myself, and our families were able to enjoy the day worry free.
Thank you so much Queen!
You won’t find another coordinator who will work harder to put the best in “the best day of your life.” Before, during, and after, Queen was beyond helpful in not only juggling all the action of the day, but also using her knowledge, connections, and adaptability to make sure our wedding would meet and exceed what we had imagined. Long live the Queen! 👑
We got Queen's partial planning package which included monthly check-ins with her and all coordination for month before the wedding. She did a great job in keeping us on track with our wedding planning and helping us prioritize, given that we had a shorter than normal runway to the wedding. She also took care of all vendor communications in the last month before wedding which was super helpful because we had a rather tricky issue with one of our vendors. Day of coordination was also pretty great.
Most of all, we loved Queen's enthusiasm and humor. It really helped because wedding planning can get stressful at times!
Our wedding would not have turned out the way it did without Queen’s help! Her attention to detail and incredible organization skills helped us turn our dream into a reality. Queen and her team exceeded all our expectations, they were super supportive, listened to our wants and needs and made it happen! We can’t recommend her enough!
Queen was one of the best we’ve ever worked with! She was punctual and always updated us on what is about to happen to make sure that we capture everything for the couple. We actually have been recommending her lately to couples who needs a punctual coordinator for their day!
If the Knot had six, seven...two hundred star options, it wouldn't be enough. Queen (owner) is phenomenal. She is not just incredibly organized, patient, and supportive but she really emphasizes that she wants you to not have to worry about anything* on your wedding day. And you don't, when you have Queen. My family didn't have to worry about anything...my husband was supported...and so was I. Everything went on behind the scenes and was absolutely perfect. And I just hired her for the "day of coordinator." To be honest, I could have used her for more so I would go with a more comprehensive package but if that's all money will allow, do the day of package! This is something you will never, ever regret. My sister also used Queen's services and support 7 years ago and I will be referring everyone I know to her for the rest of my LIFE. She's absolutely amazing and your wedding will be a day of more not less, love not stress!
Words can’t explain the level of gratitude towards Queen and her team. Her gift of organization helped Me and my bridal party and all our vendors stay organized and on time. She provided a timed schedule the day of which brought a next level experience for all our guests. She orchestrated the day with authority and such grace, me & my husband were able to fully enjoy the day with less stress! You won’t regret hiring her and her team!
Queen was fantastic. From day one of planning we knew she was going to be on top of everything and that’s exactly how she was. She kept us on track making sure we hit all of our deadlines. She understood what we wanted and she executed beyond what we ever expected. The best coordinator out there, expect nothing but the best.
The best planning experience I could have asked for with the help of Queen! She kept us on track of our deadlines, helped with small details, and really got to know us and kept the vision of the wedding about us. I couldn’t have planned or even gotten through the busy wedding week without her. If your looking for a coordinator she is the ONE! You will not regret it!
Queen is a DREAM!!! We had no clue what it took to plan a wedding, and Queen gave us such a rest + peace along the way.
Our day would not have been the same without her special touches and intention in every detail. We are so honored to know her and have had her play a major part in our day.
If you are considering booking Queen, DO IT!!!
We would do it 100x over.
WE LOVE YOU, QUEEN!!!
Bride here! Not only did Queen coordinate & plan all decorations for my wedding but she also did for my bridal shower as well. I showed her some pins I had saved on Pinterest & she went above and beyond what I could have ever asked for she took my ideas and expanded them in ways I could not. She was organized and kept me in the loop about everything. Anytime I needed help finding a vendor or even when & where I should get my marriage license she helped me with it all she made it easy so that I didn’t have to spend hours searching. I trust her & the vendors that she provided me with were amazing from the florist to the DJ! She held my hand through it all. Queen took care of me & my family making things easy for them as well. She killed it the day of the wedding I didn’t worry about a single thing & I was able to relax & enjoy the moment. As I said Queen did both my wedding & bridal shower I would recommend her to anyone who is having a special event happening in there life you will never forget a Queens Create Events, event!

Both events were BEAUTIFUL :)
Queen did a wonderful job coordinating my sons and his new brides wedding. She is very knowledgeable, easy to work with and has great ideas! Everything went seamlessly the day of the wedding. The decorations were beautiful and well done. I will definitely be recommending her professional services to others!
Response from the Vendor on 10/11/2021
AWWW, Thanks so much!
Queen was well organized, professional, on top of monthly check-in’s and definitely kept us accountable. She provided a stress free experience as the Go-To person on the big day.
Made the day spectacular and mapped out a schedule of to-do things leading up to the day.
Response from the Vendor on 10/11/2021
It was our pleasure! :)
Queen was our lifesaver for the six months that we had to prepare for our wedding! She took our dream and made it a reality! From consistent and quick execution, to thinking about details that we would overlook, to making sure that we were relaxed and stress-free on the day of our wedding, Queen really made our entire wedding experience, planning and all, a joy! I recommend her to every couple I know.

We LOVED being a part of it! :)

Queen was an amazing part of our special day.
We initially tried doing without a planner but our venue required it.
So we were so lucky to find her at the last minute.
From our first encounter her professionalism and punctuality to planning or first meeting was great.
She was patient, accommodating and affordable to our budget plan.
She made our wedding event incredibly stress free, from the day we signed our contract with her to the end, she went over and beyond with services needed and reaching all vendors to make sure everyone was on the same page and on the top of things for our wishes to be met.
During the wedding while we were both nervous and anxious she was so calm and composed she kept us informed with the process and steps along the way, she brought us water and snacks.
She was simply amazing, we would use her again and again. Matter fact at the end of the event, we all said, let’s do this again. Lol … My wife and I strongly recommend her for your wedding….
She is amazing…. ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Thank you once again Queen 👑 for making our day so special…
Response from the Vendor on 06/27/2021
It was an absolute pleasure being a part of your day! Yes, let’s do it again! Lol
Queen and her team brought the vision to life; she was with us every step of the way. Very professional, organized and did I mention super creative!!!
Queen was the best. We couldnt have done it without her. She is everything you want, professional and precise. She would care more about our wedding than we did at times. And that’s the best part, she loves weddings and it really shows. She is very attentive to your requests and concerns, but will also tell it to you straight in a graceful way. She has an answer to everything. Everyone needs a Queen in their corner!

Thank you Andrew! It was such a privilege being a part of it all. 🤍
Queen made sure every detail was taken care of, I have always dreaded the planning part of getting married and Queen made sure there was no stress for my husband and I. We were able to enjoy every moment. There are no words to express our gratitude for her services and we HIGHLY recommend QCE for your wedding planning needs!
Response from the Vendor on 11/22/2020
Renee, thanks so much! I had a great time in the process. And thankful you did too!
Queen's Creative Events made my special day unforgettable. You can not put a price on peace of mind - I knew QCE had EVERYTHING under control. They went up and beyond what I could have imagined, tending to details I didn't even knew existed!! Do yourself a favor on call them now... you won't regret it.
Response from the Vendor on 11/22/2020
Thank you so much Ricka!👍🏼👍🏼
Queen helped make my wedding the best day I could have imagined. We met up for our initial consultation and she took notes of what I envisioned and wanted for my day and brought it to life with her creative touches that could be seen through out my venue. On my wedding day, she made my experience as a bride the best and smoothest ever and in my eyes everything was perfect. I hired her in late March with my wedding date in June and she delivered with excellence with only a few months to work with.
Thank you Queen for making my wedding day one of the best days of my life.
Response from the Vendor on 11/19/2020
Carol, it was a pleasure! Thanks for allowing us to be a part of it!
Queen was very professional, extremely experienced, and knowledgeable. I didn’t know much about weddings or all of the specifics and she helped me understand all of the little things as well as the big picture. I couldn’t have been happier!
Response from the Vendor on 10/01/2018
It was a pleasure and delight! Congrats again!
Every detail is well thought out, and there is no procrastination. The decor style is very vibrant but also so clean and simple. I’ve seen many events start from a small idea and turned over into an extravagant vision that I couldn’t piece together in my own mind! Not to mention she is frugal and has a solution to everything. Queen is fun to work with, passionate, and a strong, kind, leader! She takes the stress out of planning! I would highly recommend her!
Queen thank you so much for your creativity. You seem to amaze me everytime. When i attended your Propel event you made it feel so fancy and fun. All of my friends enjoyed taking pictures with your beautiful detailed hand crafted back drops. The food was set up so beautifully and delicious. I also loved the christmas Dream Team event. You turned a very empty ordinary building turn into a fancy banquet. My family loved the event. The table set up was gorgeous and the food set up was brilliant. You must have an amzing team who love what they do because you can most definatly tell someone poured their heart into the art.
Thank you so much to Queen for being our day of coordinator!! We wanted to do much of the planning as we could ourselves, but we had decided we wanted a day of coordinator. We met with Queen and were impressed by her expertise. She helped us with organizing things before the wedding, for the rehearsal dinner, and for the wedding itself. She efficiently put together a plan for pretty much everything - there was so much we didn't even know we needed to do, and she guided us through everything.
Queen and her team were so amazing -- they even took over some roles from the catering staff when they were a complete failure at my wedding -- AND for the most part, I had not even realized there was a problem because Queen's team was so competent, thoughtful, and efficient.
I definitely would recommend Queen!!!! She is very competent and she knows what she's doing!
byDesign Films worked closely with Queen during the wedding planning process. She is excellent at her job because she is a smart, quick and resourceful planner. Her attention to detail and ability to get things done made my job easier. Thank you Queen for all your hard work and help!
I've known Queen for many years from my university days. As I was planning my wedding overseas I realized I needed a Day of Wedding Coordinator and was absolutely thrilled to see Queen's Creative Events since I really needed a trusted source. We spent many hours on the phone, going over the details of my day to make sure each detail was as I envisioned it. Queen made sure that all vendors were there on time, that everything was placed and arranged exactly as I wished, and may I add my wedding reception was outdoors full of logistical details that would not have come together as seamlessly as it did if I didn't have Queen's Creative Events services there.
Thank you for making this day special Queen and all the best to you in your business.
Response from the Vendor on 10/03/2016
Hi there,
Not only was it so great to see you after all these years but I am so glad you enjoyed your experience with us... We had so much fun on your wedding day... it was ridiculous!
We can't wait to be there for your next milestone!
All t...
he best to you and your husband...
Everyone knows planning any event can be stressful, especially your wedding. Queen's confidence & abilities immediately eliminate that stress. She is the perfect combination of professional & elegant, yet very personal & friendly. Her attention to detail and her creativity take your dreams & turn them into a reality. Quality service with a smile! Having Queen in my corner was the BEST decision I made.
My husband and I immediately started planning for our wedding once we were engaged and were so eager to share our happiness with friends and family. Our plans for our special day came to a halt when a few major life events had taken place for us and we were no longer able to host the dream wedding we had planned so long for. We decided to get married in 2012 and left the idea of having a wedding behind. Luckily, I found QCE through a great friend of mine and it was a true blessing. In talking with Queen at QCE, she helped my husband and I realize that you can still celebrate your big day, even years later, and it still be just as meaningful and special as the day we got married. After checking out their website and looking through photos from previous events, their was not doubt in our minds we would use QCE for our Wedding/Vow Renewal. Everything looked so elegant and carefully executed. In our consultation with Queen, she managed to take the initial ideas we envisioned for our event and enhance them. Some of her ideas were even better than what we originally had planned! We just know that our wedding will be nothing short of spectacular and are eager to begin planning. A big thank you goes out to QCE for restoring our hope and excitement again. We just can't wait!
QCE planned my bridal shower. It was elegant, beautiful and beautiful ambience. From start to finish, QCE had everything organized to perfection. The color scheme was just as I had imagined. (QCE took the time to use my favorite colours). The food was delicious and the guests were not only entertained but also had a lot of fun. I had an awesome time and didnt have any worries. It was more than I had expected and it was an exciting memorable experience. QCE is proffesional, thoughtful and also knows how to put a smile on a brides face and give you a peace of mind.
I have the pleasure of witnessing QCE at work behind the scenes when the planning meetings are over, preparation starts, and constant revisions are made. The QCE Team truly puts their hearts and creative minds into every detail with story boards, show room models, and many many test trials. I've seen QCE turn their homes, garages, and extra space into showroom models full of creative ideas and candid conversations about their clients vision and dreams. I think the best quality and characteristic of the QCE Team is that they work smart and hard for their clients while still managing the care of their families. Yes I've witnessed QCE take care of their children, cook for their families, and late in the night pull out the ribbons, glitter, flowers, charms etc.making sure every detail is right, every venue secured, and every vendor confirmed. I have the pleasure of witnessing QCE in action behind the scenes because Queen is my beautiful loving wife and the best mother around. Now that makes a great event planner, multitasker, and dream engineer!
wow!! this is such a reliable company. very detailed oriented. This is such a wonderful team to work with.
Queen is amazing! Her attention to detail dispells any anxiety and worries that try to rear it's head on your big day! Her smooth flow, follow up and follow through is the balm that calms every bride & groom. Queen's Creative Events made my big day so special, so creative and so RIGHT for my husband and I. I didn't have to worry about all the little stuff , because Queen is a leader , a confident coordinator and understands the art of making your event so beautiful. From the beginning to the end - Queen is there! Thank you Blessings to you!

Hiring QCE was THE best decision we made. I HIGHLY recommend all brides hire a coordinator who is a day-of coordinator in addition to a coordinator of the vendors etc. prior to the event. It made the day so much more enjoyable, and definitely reduced our stress levels. It's worth every penny - though with QCE we didn't spend nearly what expected to! They had several vendors with whom they had existing relationships which provided us with better pricing and service than we found on our own... Caterer, florist, tent vendor, cake baker, etc., and it was great to NOT be the go-to person for all of these people for the lead up or on the day-of. Queen, the owner and our planner, knew how to line everyone up before the ceremony and didn't let me forget anything.
Queen is absolutely the best, hands down (feedback reinforced by other recently married friends who attended our ceremony). I was referred to her from a very satisfied co-worker and after seeing her portfolio and an interview, hired her on the spot. Her claim, confident, not pushy demeanor made me feel calm and as if I had an ally as we embarked on the task of planning and executing our wedding. Our wedding day was all I wished it would be. I didn't have to worry about ANYTHING. She went above and beyond for us. I can whole heartily say I would hire her all over again and God willing will again if she is still around when my daughter gets married.
The team was efficient and completely exceeded my expectations
If I could give Queen 10 stars, I would. From Day 1, she has been thorough, organized, and proactive. She gave us a helpful checklist to keep us on top of everything from favors to the honeymoon. We had a crafts day to test out our decorations and centerpieces and to make sure everything would turn out the way we envisioned it. She kept in constant communication with my fiance and I to make sure we stayed on budget and she kept our eyes on preparing more for our marriage than just the wedding day. Our wedding day was organized, stress-free and a joyful occasion all thanks to Queen's creativity, guidance, and attention to detail. Thanks to Queen, every bride can experiene the fullness of everything wedding planning has to offer.
