Hiring Shelley Ann for our wedding was the single best choice we made. She worked so hard, so tirelessly, over many months to make our wedding perfect. Every question we had, every...
vendor we needed; Shelley had the exact best answer. She has a list of contacts a mile long. She has the creativity to innovate if there are any obstacles. A few examples of how she went above and beyond. We got married at an old family country property in east Fresno County that hadn't had a lot of love in a long time. We needed a landscaper and Shelley was somehow able to find the only professional landscaper in that part of the County. She recommended the perfect florist and the exact right DJ/music. Even her catering recommendation turned out perfectly. Another example of her service: on the wedding day we realized no one had bought any ice. Shelley showed up with all the ice we needed! She even found a babysitter on short notice for the 10 guests who had kids under age 5. By the end of our time together, Shelley was like family. You want someone this mature, this experienced, this professional on your team. However much she charges these days, she is the biggest bargain you will find. A true force multiplier.
My husband Todd and I had the pleasure of working with Shelley for our wedding this August in Tehachapi, CA, and we couldn't be more thrilled with the experience. From start to fin...
ish, Shelley made our wedding planning process effortless and enjoyable.
Her relaxed and friendly demeanor put us at ease right away. Shelley has a remarkable ability to handle every detail with grace and efficiency, which allowed us to fully immerse ourselves in the joy of our special day without any stress. Her attention to detail and creative vision were truly impressive, turning our dream wedding into a beautiful reality.
Shelley's warmth and professionalism were evident in every interaction, and her dedication to ensuring everything went smoothly was second to none. She went above and beyond to make sure that every aspect of our wedding was perfect, and we felt completely confident and supported throughout the entire process.
If you're looking for a wedding coordinator who is not only incredibly skilled but also genuinely wonderful to work with, Shelley Ann is the one for you. We can't thank her enough for making our wedding day so memorable and magical!
Shelley was amazing!!! We hired Shelley for full services to our wedding this past May 2024 and she was the best decision we made. She was very organized and friendly. She has an e...
xcellent vendor list. All planning calls were very productive. Our wedding day ran so smooth. She took care of everything from start to finish. I highly recommend Shelley!
Shelley was an absolute dream to work with and made our wedding planning experience truly wonderful! From the very beginning, her friendly demeanor, organization, and extensive kno...
wledge made what could have been a stressful process incredibly smooth and stress-free. She provided us with valuable insights into many of the vendors we ended up choosing, ensuring we had the best team for our special day.
Shelley was so thoughtful and patient throughout the entire planning journey. However, it was on the day of our wedding that she truly shined. Shelley was in her element when pulling together and executing the wedding day game plan, ensuring everything ran on time and smoothly - all with a smile on her face! She handled all the day of coordination with family and vendors, so that we could relax and fully enjoy our day without any hassle.
Now that our wedding is over, we're not only sad that the day has passed but also because we won't get to work with Shelley anymore. We couldn't recommend her enough for anyone planning their wedding! Thank you, Shelley, for making our day perfect!!
RECOMMEND-SEARCH NO MORE-BEST PLANNER HANDS DOWN! Shelley is AMAZING! Hiring Shelley as a day of wedding coordinator was the best decision I made when planning my wedding; she made...
all my wants and dreams come true on the day of my wedding and even in the months leading up to my wedding. She took ALOT of weight off my shoulders and believe it or not I was able to completely relax the day of my wedding. Anything I needed or had questions about she was there. She also helped with things I didn’t even think of to ask help with. Shelley’s dedication, passion, creativity and attention to every detail were beyond remarkable; I firmly believe our special day would not have gone as smoothly as it did without Shelley. Thank you again so much! XOXO
I could not recommend Shelley more. Planning my wedding from across the county, working full time, and running a business was just not going to be possible for me. I gave her my vi...
sion for our day and a couple of vendors who I liked their work and she took the reigns from there, getting me quotes, doing all the behind-the-scenes chatting, and communicating with me effectively and efficiently. Not only did she do an amazing day at pulling together our dream day, but the execution day off was nothing but perfection. She made sure every little detail was spot on, we had the perfect timeline, and stayed on time! She is beyond amazing, the nicest and so understanding, you will not regret working with Shelley! Like I said, I could not recommend more!
Shelley was everything we could have hoped for in a day-of-coordinator. She kept us on track w/ periodic meetings, and gave us input when we asked for it. On the day of the event, ...
she was at our venue running the show for 14 hours! She even made some announcements and cued some music when it was needed.
She supported our unique vision and didn't push us to add things to our wedding/budget that we didn't care about. We highly recommend her! <3
Many thanks to Shelley, she was an amazing coordinator. Book with Shelley for coordination services for your wedding. It was one of the best decisions we made. Our wedding was a dr...
eam and it was so organized and beautiful. Shelley was on top of it, she really brought all of our details together and made sure our vendors were all on the same page. Shelley was not only a huge part of our planning process, but she was also incredible on our wedding day. We felt so at ease on our wedding day knowing that our coordinator was capable of handling any situation. Shelley was present throughout our entire day, and as a DIY bride, Shelley was super helpful with setting up our decor on top of managing our day of timeline with our vendors. Our wedding day could not have gone any smoother. We are so thankful to have Shelley, we had the best day of our lives. Shelley is a powerhouse and will go above and beyond to make sure that you have the best day of your lives. We seriously can't thank her enough!
Shelley was amazing from the beginning. All my vendors have told me how much it was a pleasure to work with her. Shelley handled the timeline that was sent to all my vendors so ev...
eryone was on the same page. Definitely made the wedding day run smoothly. She also greeted our guests as they came inside the venue. Always there if I had a question or needed an option on something . Would recommend Shelley to anyone who is planning a wedding / event. She was such a joy to work with and always so professional . #DeLeonWedding4.29.2023❤️
Shelley was amazing! Obviously weddings are expensive and things add up fast, but I knew I needed someone to help execute my vision and make sure everything was taken care of on th...
e day of our wedding. I cannot recommend Shelley enough! Hiring her was the best decision and best use of money for our wedding. She took care of everything, coordinated with our vendors, and provided us all with a timeline that included everything important to us. We gave her our budget and because of her we found our perfect photographer and officiant. Shelley has all the connections and can make it happen. We are so thankful for you Shelley!! -Gloria and Evan Gonzales
I came across shelley on Instagram. I knew I didn’t want a full blown planner because I am a DIY kinda girl as it is and I wanted to do a lot of it myself! I saw she offered a vari...
ety of planning services including day of coordination, so I reached out because I knew I’d need some help executing our ideas on our wedding day so we could fully enjoy it.
We had a very unique vibe for our wedding , not your typical “rustic” vibe. Shelley put all our little details together flawlessly! She locked in all the details, spoke with vendors, set up and tore down for us. When we walked into our reception area for the first time both of us were speechless!
When I say Shelley is 100% worth every single cent we paid her (and probably far far more in my honest opinion!), I am not exaggerating. You will not regret having her by your side during any special time in your life you need some help perfecting the details of!
Thanks Shelley! We will forever be so thankful for you! ❤️

f my wedding, I did not worry about going to venue to see how things were going. We love abs appreciate all you did for us. Guests at our wedding asked for her services and will definitely refer her to anyone and will hire her for our future events. 💗
My husband and I got married in Hong Kong last year but due to Covid, his family from the states were unable to come to our ceremony. Thanks to Shelley, she sourced all the vendors...
and coordinated with them. This wedding was beyond our expectations! Shelley has such a good taste and would highly recommend to our friends and family!
I was planning my own wedding, but three weeks before my wedding I started to second guess everything, so I hired Shelley, within the 3 weeks she was able to contact all my vendors...
and complete a full-day descriptive run-sheet/timeline. She filled in all the gaps I was missing. My wedding day ran so smoothly, Shelley was "on it". My husband (who hadn't had a chance to speak to/meet her prior) whispered in my year "I like her, she's so professional, she knows exactly what to do and when to do it". I felt like I had a long-time friend helping me at my wedding with Shelley. You won't regret hiring Shelley, she's one of the best decisions I made for my wedding.
Shelley is absolutely amazing!! I originally wasn’t going to hire a day of coordinator but I am so happy I did. Shelley is reliable, supportive, and has a sweet soul. She genuinely...
cares about her couples and their happiness. My family loved her and so did all my vendors. She’s truly a wonderful person and day of coordinator. Brides, if you are having any hesitations about hiring a day of coordinator, listen to me, DO IT!! It is not a waste of money. I’m so glad I hired Shelley because I got to truly enjoy my wedding from beginning to end without stress. Shelley, thank you so much for being a part of our wedding & we wish you nothing but continued success in your business!
You should definitely hire Shelley to plan your next wedding or event! I've had the pleasure of working with Shelley on several events and she has gone above and beyond every time ...
to ensure me event is: organized, as stress free as possible, within budget, and on the day of, I can have fun instead of worrying about a schedule. Shelley has so much experience and it shows in everything she does!
