Sydney made my wedding day one of the best days of my life. I used her for partial planning because I am a bit of a control freak (sorry, Sydney!). In hindsight, I should’ve handed everything over to her because it would’ve been executed perfectly. She was a joy to work with, took care of every obstacle. It felt like I was working with my best friend. I am so very grateful. The wedding day and rehearsal went by without a worry. 1000% would recommend.Sunflower Entertainment's reply:
Elisha, you and Nam were so fun to plan with! From day 1 we had the best time together! We are so incredibly grateful for clients like you guys! Thank you for letting me be a part of such an amazing day! -

Couldn't be happier
We hired Sunflower Entertainment for our Seattle wedding in October and I am so happy we did! We had Briana as our coordinator and I absolutely loved working with her! In the last few weeks when everything started to really come together and start to feel a little overwhelming, Briana made me feel like I was in good hands. I loved how detailed the timeline was so when the big day came, my husband and I were really able to just enjoy it. She was communicative, thorough and I would hire Sunflower again in a second! -

Absolutely necessary!
Sydney made the process of planning a wedding so seamless. I was lost when I started and she made everything so much easier. On the day of our wedding I didn’t have to think about or worry about a thing. She’s so incredibly professional and I 10/10 recommend her to everyone! -

I seriously do not know what I would've done without Sydney! She was so professional and knew all the right questions to ask. All of my other vendors were so impressed by her as well and went out of their way to let me know they were so thankful to have her around. She was able to relieve so much of the stress I was carrying and that is priceless! I highly recommend Sunflower Entertainment!Sunflower Entertainment's reply:
You guys were so much fun and I can't thank you enough for letting me be a part of your special day! Wishing you so many more amazing memories together! -

Sydney was an absolute star as she helped me, who was living in France, and my mom create a magical wedding. She always offered the best advice, helped us when we were in a slump, just overall amazing. Thank you so much, Sydney!Sunflower Entertainment's reply:
Rogan thanks for letting me help plan and be a part of such a special day for you guys! I had the best time planning and getting things ready with you and your mom! Hopefully our paths cross again! -

Becky F. Sent on 10/08/2023We had a stress-free wedding day!
Sydney and her team were amazing to work with for our wedding. We hired them for day-of coordination. From the ceremony rehearsal, to set-up, the reception, and breakdown, our wedding day was perfect. If there were any issues that arose, we didn't know about them because Sydney had everything handled. After such a long day, the best part was being able to spend time thanking friends and family at the end of the wedding while Sydney had clean up and take down totally organized. She is an experienced professional and also such a friendly and warm person. Would definitely recommend Sunflower Entertainment!Sunflower Entertainment's reply:
Becky thank you again for choosing us to be a part of such an important day in your lives! I loved working with you and Sara and your day was beautiful and filled with so much love! We appreciate you guys so much! -

Parisa E. Sent on 05/12/2023a fantastic wedding day problem solver
When we had our vendor walk-through with Sydney at Sunflower Entertainment, I knew we'd made a great decision in hiring her to be our day-of coordinator! She was punctual, knew all the right questions to ask the venue staff, and helped us make decisions when the venue had questions we didn't know how to answer. It's clear she has lots of experience in wedding planning and problem solving, and has a reputation of professionalism with vendors. On our wedding day, she was constantly working behind the scenes to make things run smoothly--from helping us navigate a dance floor issue, to fixing my train, to setting up decor, to making sure we were taking breaks to rest and rehydrate. We got several compliments from guests about her organization and skill. Thank you Sydney for all you did to make our wedding day so special!Sunflower Entertainment's reply:
Thank you Parisa! You and Indhira were amazing clients! I had a blast working with your family and friends! -

Couldn't Have Done It Without Her!
We love Sydney! Our wedding day went so smoothly, and we really felt that Sydney was along with us every step of the way. I can't think of a single problem for which she didn't already have a solution. Even though it rained on the day of our outdoor wedding, she made the transition to bring it all indoors seamless and easy! As the bride, I didn't have a single worry all day, and that's what really mattered to me :) Thank you Sydney, on behalf of the Prices and our entire wedding party.Sunflower Entertainment's reply:
Omg Rae! You guys are the absolute best! There was so much love in the room on your wedding day! Thank you guys for letting me be a part of such a special day for the both of you! -

Absolutely phenomenal!
Sydney’s attention to detail, ability to multitask, understanding of our needs, and execution of my sisters wedding was flawless. She has the ability to elicit confidence and take control of every situation so our entire day was stress free. You can tell how much she cares for her clients and loves what she does. 10/10 recommend for anyone planning any kind of event.Sunflower Entertainment's reply:
Sarah, Thank you so much for your kind words! You guys all made the event so easy and fun! I love your family and friends so much! Call me when Chad puts a ring on it! ;-) Love you guys! -

Highly Recommend to Execute Your Dream Day
I've helped to coordinated a few wedding days for friends and am pretty Type A in general. So I had high expectations for what our wedding day would look like and how it would function, and we were VERY happy with Sydney & Sami. Everything looked exactly as we'd hoped, they managed timeline very effectively and left us to simply enjoy our day and party. They have a very useful online communication platform where I was able to upload all of our inspo photos, thoughts, notes, layout, hair/makeup trial photos, etc. to communicate exactly what we were after. Our ceremony and reception were in two different locations and they managed the decor/vendors/flow at both! We are glad we hired them and would recommend them to anyone planning a wedding day or large event. -

Krystal G. Sent on 10/07/2022Sunflower Entertainment helped make our day BEAUTIFUL!
Working with Brianna and Sydney for our wedding day was the best decision ever! From our initial discussions to the day of coordinating duties, and answering every question in between, they knocked it out of the park! Brianna did an amazing job making sure everyone was running smoothly on our wedding day, working with our vendors and guests and I couldn't be happier with the outcome! Sydney was fantastic at organizing and making sure we were 100% happy with our timeline. I love how we had them in our corner because they made sure we were doing everything we wanted and helped us tune out the "outside noise" and pressures many of us experience while planning a wedding! We had so much fun at our wedding and it was in huge part thanks to Sunflower Entertainment! We would love to be able to work with them again in the future for other parties!Sunflower Entertainment's reply:
Krystal, Thank you so much for letting us be a part of your wedding day! Brianna had a blast at your event! You guys are an amazing couple and we enjoyed working with you every step of the way! I am glad we could help keep your day stress free! -

Keane W. Sent on 10/27/2022Best day of our lives
Where do I even begin. Sydney helped us put together the best day of our lives.
Spencer and I didn’t have the slightest idea of how to plan a wedding. Sydney to the rescue! She made the entire process seem effortless. We kept waiting to get stressed out. It never happened. She was patient, attentive, hard working, and full of knowledge. In the end, we felt like we had a new friend. We’ve been hearing from guests that it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to. That is saying something. Hiring Sunflower Entertainment was the best decision we could’ve made. Thank you, Sydney!Sunflower Entertainment's reply:
You both were the absolute best! It was so fun working with the two of you from start to finish! Thank you so much! -

Professional, fun, above all a life savor!
I had no idea how much I needed a wedding coordinator until Sunflower entertainment came into my life. So many little details were taken care of that I had no idea I even needed. Sydney and her team were life savors and took so much stress off of me. my wedding party, and my family. She genuinely cared about my day and making sure it was the BEST experience and day she possibly could. She is a go getter while being fun and professional all at the same time. Thanks just simply isn't enough!Sunflower Entertainment's reply:
Terrin! You guys were awesome clients! Thank you so much for letting us be a part of your special day! Cheers to so many more amazing memories! -

Jonathan S. Sent on 11/04/2023The best in the business!
Such a big fan of Sydney and her team! As another vendor it is always so wonderful working with people who get it. Sydney from my perspective has always chosen a serve first mentality and will do everything she can to make sure the wedding day happens without a problem. She hires the best people too. Her team is wonderful and some of the best people! Been so fun working weddings with Sydney over the years and always look forward to the moments ahead where we get the chance to do it again! As a photographer I have had the chance to work with MANY wedding planners and coordinators and Sydney is simply the best! If you want someone who will make the magic happen do not hesitate to reach out to Sydney! You will be blessed beyond measure!Sunflower Entertainment's reply:
Thank you so much for your kind words Jon! It's always a pleasure working with you! -

Inga C. Sent on 06/30/2023Inflexible, insensitive and unaware
BRIDES BEWARE:
I hired Sydney because of all the rave reviews and the accreditation on wedding wire. However, upon sending her 50% of the full amount and signing her very shady contract late at night (and not paying too close attention to the verbiage…my bad, I know) I started to feel ignored, and like she was not going uphold her end of the deal. The total amount I was going to pay her is 1750.00. I was sent a bunch of forms to fill out, and no response when I filled said forms out. I asked her for seafood catering recs for my area (I’m located on Bainbridge Island and getting married in Port Gamble) to which she sent seafood restaurants located in Kent, Everett and even Canada…and who knows if any of them cater. I honestly started to feel like I had been scammed. So I attempted to reach out and she didn’t respond for multiple days. This was a very scary situation and caused lots of stress between me and my fiancé, so much so that we almost broke up….not mention we are financially struggling. Upon expressing this to Sydney, she did not respond and then proceeded to call my vendors and tell them the wedding had been canceled…which I never said.
She is now demanding the full amount to be paid, because it’s written in her contract. I am so upset and feel really stupid for not reading it closely. I went off of blind trust. But now we are either being forced to use a DOC through her business, or pay her $1750 for making my life way more complicated and miserable than it needed to be.
If you do decide to hire her READ VERY CLOSELY. I hired her less than 6 months away from my wedding, and I would have needed to give more than 6 months notice in order to only have to pay the deposit. This, to me is bad business practices and I feel taken advantage of and just completely defeated. I’m also the mother of three very young children and my husband just started his business, so our lives are not the easiest. I thought I could trust Sydney and I was completely wrong.Sunflower Entertainment's reply:
Hello Inga- We pride ourselves on our work and our reviews and we are so happy to hear that you hired us because of it! We would like to address all of your complaints in this review so that other clients and potential clients can know and understand your situation a bit better.
--You are correct, we split your payment into 2 installments. Your first installment is due upon contract signing and is non refundable. Your second installment is not due until a week before your wedding day. Once we do your finalizing details call and send out your timeline to your vendors, we then send out your final invoice for payment.
--We encourage all clients and just all people in general to read through any document before signing it. As a business, our contracts are put in place to protect us, and to protect you as clients as well. Once your contract is signed and you have paid your first installment we create a client planning suite for you. On the welcome page of your planning suite it states to please fill out your client profile and then reach out to us when that is completed for next steps.
--As part of your services as a client, we offer unlimited communication along with vendor recommendations as needed. You did not request catering that provide seafood options. You requested catering companies that specialize in Seafood Boils. Those are very different. We did some research for you and found companies in "The Greater Seattle Area" that specialize in what you requested. Unfortunately, because the location of your event was in a more rural area {Kingston], the closest vendors that specialized in what you were requesting were not local to that area. We always try to make sure we use local vendors first!
--Our response time does definitely differ depending on the months of the year and times of day. This is clearly stating on the welcome page of your planning suite.
--You did reach out to us and let us know that you and your fiance were having marital and financial problems. You also stated that you didn't know if your wedding was even going to happen. We always approach these situations with care. We always want to make sure our clients are ok but we also need to protect ourselves as a business as well. We did reach out to one of your vendors who we had a close relationship with. We wanted to make sure we were covering our bases in how we can best assist you in this situation and the best way to move forward. We did not tell your vendors that the event was cancelled.
--When you hire a professional service and sign a contract you should read through everything before signing. If you did not like or approve or agree with anything in our contract you should not have signed it. We make things very clear and easy for clients to understand how our process works. We went over everything with you in our initial consultation before you hired us. You did state to us via text message that you did not read the fine print and you were going off of "good faith" or "blind trust". We as a business run off of contracts and legal agreements.
To conclude, yes it does state in our contract that if you cancel our services within a 6 month period from your date that we are legally allowed to request final payment from you. This is because we have done work for you during this time period and we have also reserved this date for you which will most likely not be booked within this time frame.
We wish you the best moving forward Inga and recommend you read all documents before signing them in the future. In addition, we hope that your husband requires contracts like ours for his business to protect him and his clients as well.
