"Sarah and her team are absolutely incredible! We were fortunate enough to work with her for both our wedding and our rehearsal dinner welcome party. She had incredible vendor recommendations, knew how to help us represent both of our styles into each event and created the most gorgeous florals I have ever seen. Sarah is so genuinely passionate about her art, and it is truly an art, and knows how to exceed your vision from day one."
- Amanda, Bride

"If you are looking for a wedding planner, this is who you want to use!! Every single detail about working with Sarah was hands down WAY more than I ever could have dreamed! She planned our entire elopement ceremony in a month’s notice and kept it totally stress-free and fun. Throughout the entire process of working with Sarah, it felt like working with a best friend, not just a wedding planner. I have never felt so heard and understood. Sarah completely captured our entire vision for our special day, down to even the tiniest little detail. I can’t recommend her enough!!"
- Grayson, Bride

"Sarah is the BEST! I had a million questions and she helped me with all of them! She was so helpful in this whole process and helped our vision of this day come to life! We would have been lost without her! And our installation was to die for! Thank you, Sarah!"
- Erin, Bride

"Because of Sarah, I had the wedding of my dreams. Her warm heart and sweet demeanor helped the process of planning a wedding become a joyful, stress-free experience. She listened to me and my husband patiently so that she could make our vision for our once in a lifetime day a reality. She is a tour de force of talent, vision, and experience. She truly values the people she serves, and was always there for me if I needed to ask or talk about something along the way. Having her plan my wedding was one of the easiest and smartest decisions I have ever made. I truly cannot recommend this amazing woman enough. Our day was perfect thanks to her hard work and expertise."

"Sarah Oakland was such a dream to work with! We went from plan A to plan F by the end of it (COVID-19 lolz), and Sarah stood by my side through all of the emails, reschedules, and refunds. She was so thoughtful with the florals and details in our space. I trusted her creativity from the beginning and it made for such a beautiful event. She's a great communicator and will keep you any of your loved ones (for me, my mom wanted to be involved the whole way) in the know and will reach out with updates and to-do items throughout the whole process. I could not have asked for a better person to plan our day with."
- Sarah, Bride

"I will start by saying I had two daughters marry within four months and only 5 months to plan for each. Sarah was a lifesaver. She was lovely to work with, paid attention to detail and available 24/7. She kept us on task and budget. The second wedding was held in a different state with a planner familiar with the fiancé’s family. Both daughters got the wedding of their dreams, but the glaring difference was Sarah never forgot it was the bride she was working with."
- Elizabeth, Mother of the Bride

"When we first met with Sarah, I told her that I wanted our reception to be a party while still maintaining classical elements in design.  Sarah's suggestions, from tent draping to the band selection were perfectly in line with the atmosphere that we wanted to create for our big day.  With her knowledge and know-how, we were able to create a once in a lifetime experience.  We have heard from numerous guests that our wedding was the most fun wedding they have ever been to.  I have no doubt that all of the planning on Sarah's end contributed to this.  One of the best parts about working with Sarah was her eye for layouts.  She was very aware of how things would flow and what would make a large ballroom feel the most intimate.  Thanks to a well-executed day-of timeline, I was able to relax and enjoy the day.  I wasn't worried about minor details or last minute things.  I had full confidence in Sarah and her team."

"Don’t look for any other wedding planner. Sarah is the BEST! Her professionalism, communication about every single detail, and creativity goes unmatched. She goes above and beyond to make sure you have the wedding of your dreams (no matter the budget). I was extremely impressed by her skills while planning my wedding. I can’t recommend her enough."

"I could not be more grateful and in awe of sarah and what she did to make our wedding day absolutely perfect. she took what I had always envisioned and absolutely nailed it. every little detail exceeded my expectations. not only that, but she handled our last minute COVID postponement in a way that made me feel at ease - which was certainly not an easy feat! I truly don’t know that our wedding day would have been even close to as perfect as it was without all of her guidance and expertise. I could not recommend her enough. you know you’ve got a great wedding planner when you’re still regularly texting with them weeks after the wedding is over. it just goes to show how she goes above and beyond with everything she does!"
- Stephanie, Bride

"Sarah Oakland made our wedding day dreams a reality! There were so many times throughout the planning process that my mom and I would turn to each other and say, “Thank goodness we have Sarah!!” She kept me organized, found the best vendors, helped me fully develop my ideas and vision around the big day and then executed it all beyond what I could have hoped for! Not only is she a skilled planner, but her floral designs were beyond gorgeous. She is worth every penny and I would use her all over again.
- Sarah, Bride

Outside of choosing my groom, choosing to work with Sarah was hands down the best and most important decision I made for my wedding! From day one Sarah always made herself accessible for all of my and my mom’s million questions, and remained a steady and calming force as we navigated the challenges of replanning our wedding during a pandemic. Her professionalism, communication, vendor recommendations and connections, incredible taste and creative ideas make her one of a kind. She made sure every single detail of our wedding was perfect, fun and stress-free for us and our families, and completely captured our vision for the big day. She truly became a great friend throughout the over two year process, and I cannot recommend her planning and floral services enough!
- Megan, Bride

Sarah is an amazing wedding planner (and does florals too!).  She dealt with my daughter’s rescheduled Covid wedding of 200 guests with grace, efficiency and calm. I live out of town and greatly appreciated her exceptional communication and responsiveness. Sarah’s attention to detail and level of wedding expertise along with her professionalism makes her a dream to work with! She planned and executed a perfect ceremony, cocktail hour, reception and post-wedding brunch. Absolutely the best!
