Something Special Events & The Tipsy Squirrel

There are no words to describe how pleased we were with Something Special Events. Danielle went above and beyond to make our wedding absolutely perfect. She was extremely responsive throughout the entire wedding planning process, was patient with us when our wedding plans changed multiple times and very professional. Danielle paid attention to all our requests and then exceeded them. We really feel like we could not have done it without her!

I would HIGHLY recommend Danielle to anyone who is considering a day-of coordinator. I can not express how amazing she was in helping sort out a million last minute details because of the pandemic. After the wedding, every single one my guests mentioned how great Danielle and her team was. Do not hesitate and hire Danielle!

You could not find a more responsive day-of coordinator than Danielle. She and her assistant did an amazing job of ensuring that I had to think very little about the mechanics of my wedding on the day itself -- that is, running a dinner/dance party for 120 people. In the weeks/months leading up to the event, I worked with Danielle to hammer out the details and she was able to fill in the blanks/provide suggestions to help streamline the event. Highly recommend.

I hired Danielle as my day-of wedding coordinator, and it was the best decision I made throughout the entire wedding planning process! She was a dream to work with: responsive, organized, professional, clear, and helpful. She completely understood my vision for the big day, and enacted it beautifully so I didn't have to worry about anything but walking down the aisle. I felt so at ease during the wedding because I knew Danielle had everything handled. I can't recommend her enough for all your wedding coordination needs!

I hired Danielle as a Day-Of-Coordinator (DOC) for my 130-people wedding in Elk Grove, which included a ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. Long review coming up, but my take-home message is this: if you're on the fence about getting a DOC for your wedding, DO IT and get Danielle onboard! ーーーーーーー Some background on me: I do software QA for a living, and since I'm used to organizing, planning, and bringing teams of people together, I planned the majority of the wedding by myself. From finding all the individual vendors to creating detailed week-of and day-of timeline from online resources, I felt like I had everything under control. However, about a month before the wedding, a couple of my recently married friends told me how much they'd have enjoyed the day more if they had someone else running the show. I started reaching out to planners/coordinators everywhere, but everyone seemed to include services I didn't need (like all the planning that I'd already done), and/or were exorbitantly expensive. Enter Danielle. From the first meet-up, she was punctual, well-dressed, professional, and just had a calming demeanor. She was responsive and easy to reach out, as well. Danielle listened to my concerns about just wanting an affordable coordinator to run the day as I planned, and she offered to do exactly what I was looking for -- for just $600 because we were local! Let me tell you that it was a worthy investment, even for someone who felt as ready for the big day as I was. Danielle was there bright and early, helped coordinate so the bride and groom didn't accidentally see each other, helped with setup, kept us on time, and was at the venue till the very end to make sure all the breakdown and clean up was taken care of. She really made the day low-stress and enjoyable. Thank you Danielle!
