Events 2 Envy

It was my wedding with many, many, many little details that needed to be done on the day of the wedding, and my bride-​to-​be knew that we needed a day-​of-​coordinator, and a very detailed oriented one who could adapt to all the hiccups to come.
My bride-​to-​be and I met Crystal Belardes of Events 2 Envy at the Pleasanton Marriot wedding fair in Nov 2011, and in our quick conversation, mentioned of a wedding to be in Sep 2012. When we reached out to her again in Jul 2012, she remembered us (1 star) and even honored the expired discount (1 star) offered from that event. Since we were way over budget, that helped!
One month before the wedding, Crystal asked for simple things like the guest list and timeline. I think we emailed it to her 4 days before the wedding, and changed it every 6 hours right up to the wedding rehearsal. Also, my bride-​to-​be was sending her a few hundred emails of each new detail we added (things to put around the cake, things to hang on the trees, things that go here and there) and I was sending her emails. She took that in stride (1 star) and replied professionally and appropriately.
On Wedding rehearsal, a day before the wedding I met Crystal Belardes and her assistant Marzie Ventura at the Venue of the Pacific Athletic Clue in Redwood City, CA. After introductions to the family, and a few practice runs at the venue, we had 15 minutes to confirm with Crystal and Marzie about the millions of details of the things and what to do with the 20 boxes of things we made by hand, the favors we ordered, and the stuff we needed to be given to wedding parties and the 200 guests during the ceremony, the cocktail hour and the reception. They didn’t even blink at how much they were being assigned to do. They even went the extra step (1 star) of taking some of those boxes home since we couldn’t figure out a way to keep all of it onsite.
On Wedding day, when my wedding party and I got there, 30 minutes before the ceremony, they were done with all of the details. I looked around, and knew I didn’t have to worry (1 star). Both Crystal and Marzie kept to our schedule of things, adapted when we went out of schedule, checked in on us every hour to make sure if there was anything they could do to help, did the extra things we asked for help on like corraling people for our post-​ceremony wedding photos, and stayed all the way to the end of the night (so I assume they started at 1pm, ceremony was around 4pm, and ended at 10pm) and helped us clean up all of our things and put them back into our box as well as carry some of the gifts back to our car.
We could not be any happier or satisfied with Events 2 Envy.

I attended E2E’s first «Here Comes the Bride» event earlier this year. It was really nice to work with a team who doesn’t make you feel pressured into «buying» anything. This event was solely to introduce a bride-​to-​be (and her maid of honor too!) to many of the local vendors that are out there to help make your event a memorable one. Although I have not used E2E’s services for an actual event, the professionalism and consideration shown from Crystal’s team was very well received. I will definitely use them when my big day comes and would happily recommend them to anyone.
