An Everlasting Moment

From the first time I contacted Mirella, approximately 7 months before my wedding, to the day after the wedding when I went to pick-up some items we left at the venue, she was extremely helpful, timely, and friendly. My ex-boyfriend/ex-fiancé, now Husband , Thomas and I met with Mirella and upon that first meeting, we knew we wanted her help, and after a few short weeks later, it became evident that we also needed her help. Thomas and I chose to have our wedding at the Lawrence Hall of Science in Berkeley, CA and this venue required that we bring in everything for the wedding, down to the outdoor kitchen and ovens needed to cook the food. From the decorations, linens, lighting, stage, food, cake, flowers, invitations, save the dates, officiant, and everything else in between, Mirella had a helping hand in all of it. She guided us through all the decisions, helped us narrow down our choices, and provided an eye for detail. She kept us on track, provided updates, coordinated with all the vendors we had, and on the day of, all I needed to do was concentrate on looking great and showing up. We honestly enjoyed working with Mirella and although I'm so happy that we are married and getting to live our post-wedding lives, I'm sad I won't have Mirella to bounce ideas off of. We like to consider ourselves as savvy, detail-oriented, and price conscious consumers and every step of the way, I felt that Mirella was always on the same page, if not a few pages ahead of us, in every aspect. We wanted to have a fun, family-friendly, and somewhat unique wedding filled with tons of laughing, personality, and eco-friendly highlights... we accomplished everything we wanted and more with Mirella's help and I don't think I could've ever done it without her. In addition to her crazy awesome organization skills, knack for what works color and decoration-wise, and her overall coordination and business abilities, Mirella is also a good person with a great personality. She is kind, thoughtful, and extremely talented and any bride and groom would be lucky to have her help.

Mirella Riga is the most incredible wedding planner. She is talented, knowledgeable, pleasant, kind and has a work ethic like no other. Her vendor recommendations are phenomenal. Her guidance was invaluable. Thank you Mirella!!!!

Mirella was a real find as a wedding consultant for my daughter's wedding. She is very knowledgable, has great resources and is very organized. Mirella makes herself very available and was always there to answer questions. She also has great ideas that we used, many which helped to make the wedding special and unique. And not only is Mirella a great value but the vendors that she recommends are also very good and very reasonable. I felt very comfortable that she was watching our budget for us and recommending ideas that would be value-add but not necessarily expensive. I would highly recommend Everlasting Moment to anyone looking for a wedding consultant.

MiRella Riga is the best wedding planner ever! She worked with our budget in the beginning and was worth every penny. We had a hectic planning due to my husbands proffession, we were not always able to be in the location of our wedding but she worked with us every step of the way. Great vendor connections also! I looked to her for everything during my stressful time and she always had an answer. She worked everything out perfect to make our day the most amazing day!! We are so happy we found her, we do not know what would have been without having her every step of the way!!

Mirella was absolutely fantastic!! She helped with everything that we needed; she helped us find a DJ, and a florist, and also with the invitations. She was just wonderful and made my day everything I wanted it to be and more. I would use Mirella again, and recommend her to anyone I knew that was getting married.

Loved Mirella. She has great resources, wonderful ideas, and really worked hard to find exactly what we wanted. The vendors that she suggested were exceptional, punctual, friendly, and they all did a fabulous job. Mirella really made wedding planning easy, and she relieved my stress. I couldn't have been happier, and I wouldn't have changed anything about my wedding. I would recommend Mirella without any hesitation.

Mirllea Riga was amazing. Right from the start she was very organized and had a great plan to approaching a wedding. She did it all and had recommended great vendors. I would not change a thing from our dream wedding. Although my wife and mother were the ones in direct contact most of the times. Everything they said was always positive about Mirella and i never saw either of them looked stressed. Mirella also helped put together our dream honeymoon at the Atlantis and a few other trips. We still keep in touch to this day. Thank you Mirella for everything!

Mirella is unbelievable! She helped make every moment of my wedding day exactly as I had envisioned it. She is creative, helpful and positive and ensures that every detail is thought through. I would recommend Mirella to anyone!

Mirella of An Everlasting Moment provided excellent service coordinating and planning our daughters wedding. I highly recommend her. Mirella's professional attitude, vast knowledge of event planning, combined with a high degree of organization and technology made our event a wonderful affair. Both my daughter & I truly enjoyed working with her

Mirella helped me with my wedding in 2004. She did a fabulous job in coordination and planning and the suggestions and referrals she provided actually saved me money. I would highly recommend her as a wedding planner.

Mirella is the best! Although she was only a day of coordinator technically, she did sooo much with my mother and I leading up to the event and turned out to be an amazing value! She has a great creative eye and knows how to put a room together better than anyone I have ever met. Her experience lends itself to her professionalism and I loved working with her!
