Thank you Janet!!

Janet was absolutely AMAZING! We are so grateful to have hired Sandcastle Celebrations for our wedding in San Luis Obispo a few weeks ago. From the very start of the planning process, Janet provided us with helpful recommendations, extremely responsive email and phone communications and nothing but positive, calming energy. The day of our wedding is something I can't even imagine without her there! She helped to make sure that everything ran so smoothly and it allowed for both myself and our family and friends to just relax and be so present during the whole entire day. A huge thank you to Janet for helping us have the most fun, joyful wedding experience we could've asked for!

Our wedding planning heroes!

Words cannot describe how INCREDIBLY GRATEFUL I am for Janet and her team in making our dream wedding come to life. We got married at Cass Winery in Sept 2024 with 170 guests. We started working with Janet a year and a half out from our wedding date, and from the very start, Janet was fully attentive to us. She kept us so organized that we had every vendor booked a year in advance of our wedding date. And her wedding vendor recommendations were AMAZING, and really helped us identify those who fit our vibe, style, and budget.
Planning a wedding can be one of the most stressful processes, but Janet made it completely stress-free. I fully trusted every decision that Janet helped us make and we wouldn’t have been able to do our wedding without her.
I knew that when it finally came to the actual wedding day, I would have nothing to worry about because Janet had everything handled from coordinating with vendors, ceremony procession, food service, photography timeline, seating, helping us get water breaks, you name it.
I was honestly sad after the wedding when I realized we wouldn’t get to chat with Janet anymore since I felt like she had been so engrained in our lives for so long.
And it wasn’t only my husband and I that noticed all of her amazingness on our big day - multiple friends and family came up to us at our wedding complimenting how great her and her team were.
I can go on and on about my huge gratefulness for this team, but I can not emphasize enough that you need Sandcastle Celebrations as a core part of your wedding day and planning experience. We love you Janet!

So lucky we found Janet!

Janet and team did an exceptional job on wedding day! She flawlessly lead and kept well organized a large 22 person wedding party, seamlessly worked with and orchestrated 11 other vendors, and was a pleasure to work with throughout the planning process, always having expert advice and experience to share. We would recommend her with flying colors to anyone! It’s rare to find someone who is not only incredibly experienced but also positive, energetic, and a pure joy to be around. We looked forward to our site visits and planning calls! We were able to thoroughly enjoy our wedding day knowing we were in the hands of Janet and her capable team!
