    I have to give Josy 5 stars.   I met Josy last month when I was invited to my sisters 4 hour food menu tasting for her wedding.  Josy is such a small little thing but she has a HUGE personality and it is awesome to see her put all that energy into whoever her client is.
    As I helped my sister get ready for her wedding...she would have Josy on speed dial with any questions or concerns she had and Josy would take care of it right away!
    My sisters wedding day finally arrived and as I walked to the reception hall @ the hotel..I was amazed!  I saw Josy and her assistant running around making sure everything was set up and perfect for my sister.
    In the end...everything was like a fairy tale!  Josy did an amazing job with putting my sisters wedding together and making sure everything went according to plan!
    I would definitely hire Josy for any party planning event.....
    If you are looking for a wedding planner or someone to plan your next event....pick JOSY!!

    My biggest regret in wedding planning is not hiring Josy as my first vendor. I am a bride on a budget and didn't believe that I have the money to hire a wedding planner in my budget. Little that I know that the savings she has helped me with was more than her price. I was still blessed that I got the chance to work with her halfway through my wedding, by that point I had overpaid for my florist, didn't negotiate with the venue maximally and almost retain a DJ that I was not too crazy about. Josy is so generous with her time and smiles, she is so easy to work with and has found me vendors that is also easy to work with.

    Brides please do not do what I did, do not retain someone just because they are your family friend. Weddings are expensive and an unclear contract means you are at the mercy of your vendors. Finding the dress is the easiest and best part of wedding planning. Everything after that consist of the dull and scary chore of reading contracts and making sure you are not had by your vendors.

    Josy renegotiate the contract with my venue, found me a new florist at half the price, found a cheaper and nicer DJ, found me a lighting and decoration guys and got me all this extra stuff ; she drove to every meeting with vendors, read the contract and even negotiate with them. Not to mention she is generous with her time and hugs -trust me you need it after a while.

    She drove with me to downtown LA and came up with saving tips during my florist meeting. She also took me to the wholesaler and we found everything under the sun. she also stop me from buying certain things downtown since she could get it cheaper elsewhere.  I wished she could help organize my life too and read all of my other contracts =) .  I love Josy and I think she deserves 10 stars for saving me from unscrupulous vendors.

    Well, where to start. Josy is an excellent wedding planner. She has a passion for what she does. This is not "just a job" to her. Even planning a wedding from 3 hours away, it made no difference. Josy & her staff were friendly & professional. I really enjoyed working with her & would recommend her services to EVERYONE that is in need of a planner. Try her out. You'll love her services. Go Josy, Go!!

    Josy's coordinated out first ever annual corporate event. Being a small business she really took us to the next level. She played a key role and was pretty much like a member of our company. She even came to the event professionally dressed to match our company colors .It really made our company image attractive and professional. All our guests were so impressed they called it the event of the year and we are talking some high profile CEO's and Executives of large companies.  Her husband Tom also assisted and is such a pleasure to work with. With such success I hired her personally for my wedding this year and again has thus far exceeded my expectations. not very often do you find someone who is really genuine and cares about service and us as people. We shopped out about 6 other event coordinators who were recommended by friends and I must say i'm so glad we found Josy.

    We worked with Josy's Events several times but this last time for our fundraiser it made the difference between making money and losing money. Josy's event did the flower arrangements, handled the raffle, and even was out pounding the pavement to get people joining the event. Overall, Josy's Events made OUR event a great success. Thanks Josy and Tom!
