“I feel so lucky to have been introduced to Gerry years ago and have since worked with her on corporate meetings, entertainment industry events, and even my own wedding, and can honestly say that there is no one out there that is as DETAILED, CREATIVE, PASSIONATE, DEDICATED and all-around enjoyable to work with as Gerry! From the first meeting until well after the last song played, Gerry spent so much time with us, was always accessible and positive, and was completely dedicated to making our vision a reality. Gerry calmly (so important) managed the process from start to finish and helped us to find the perfect location, invites, florist, caterer, photographer, entertainment, etc., and then took the lead on coordinating with all of our vendors and anticipated every possible issue that (could have) popped up and had a plan for it. She wasn't just a planner/coordinator, she was an advisor, visionary, and friend. THANK YOU, GERRY!”

Gerry was an absolute DREAM. She was the planner at my wedding- and we couldn't have asked for anything better. Having had our wedding at Saddlerock in Malibu, CA... it meant bringing everything in, including building out a kitchen. I had the privilege to get ready on-site that day and I saw the transformation from blank canvas to the wedding of my dreams in front of my very own eyes. It was simply gorgeous and I get chills thinking about it every time. She is so professional, her attention to detail is amazing and she handles everything with such elegance and class. She was my right-hand girl on the biggest day of my life. I am so thankful for her and her team. Galas by Gerry is simply the best.

“If you're looking for a wedding coordinator/planner, STOP. You've found the right one right here!
If you're looking for someone who is calm, professional, extremely detailed oriented, and just a genuinely nice person, then Gerry is your planner. Gerry made sure that everything was in order and we had the most amazing wedding! She alleviated all of our stress and made the last few months of the planning process seamless and breezy.
The best thing about Galas by Gerry is that you get exactly what you see. It's important to be able to click with someone and know that they will be the one helping you plan one of the most important days of your life.
We can't thank Gerry enough and will for sure use her in the future for any party planning!”

We got married in Joshua Tree at the 29 Palms Inn a few weeks ago, and we couldn't have pulled it off without Gerry. We started working with Gerry for partial wedding coordinating and she made the process peaceful and efficient. She's a joy to work with and has the sweetest and kindest energy. Gerry went above and beyond brainstorming with us and executed our vision. She added a TON of value with her abundant ideas that were created beautifully the day of our wedding. We didn't have to worry about a thing the day of the wedding. Everything was handled smoothly and with ease. We just showed up and had the best time of our lives! It was an incredibly dreamy day, and it wouldn't have been possible without the lovely Galas by Gerry. xo

“If you're in need of an event planner... look no further. Simply put...Gerry is INCREDIBLE!!! Responsible, organized, meticulous, but most important... FUN.
I challenge you to find anyone better!
We have been a part of a handful of weddings that Gerry coordinated and knew that when that day arrived for us, we had to have her be a part of our special day. Our wedding venue provided a coordinator and we quickly learned that there was no way we could do it without Gerry. She was not only our coordinator/planner but our friend through it all. She was ACCESSIBLE, and creative, provided INSIGHTFUL advice when it came to vendors, and made everything so easy and seamless. She participated in meetings/calls with our florist, venue coordinator, and photographer/videographer. With all of her experience, she knows what to ask and how to handle everything....timeline, ceremony details, bridal party coordination, toasts, dances....to sum it up - the entire night! If there was an issue at our wedding, we never knew it. Gerry and her team just handle it...they coordinate the smallest of detail to the biggest part of the ceremony. She is professional and ensures that the day/night and any event leading up to it are perfect! One of the highlights of our night was getting Gerry on the dance floor with us!
Our wedding weekend was beautiful and more than we ever expected.
Thank you so very much Gerry...from the bottom of our hearts, we love you!”

It is going to be so hard to put into words how amazing this woman it is, but I am certainly going to try! We just got married at Rancho San Antonio in Santa Ynez, and had the most PERFECT day, which could not have happened without Gerry. She was available to us whenever we had questions while planning, and met with us throughout the process to organize our special day.
When the weekend finally came, she worked from morning to night both Friday preparing and setting up with us, and Saturday making sure every single thing was perfect. I left all of my decor and signs and boxes of set-up items that I had collected for months in her hands-on Friday, and when I got to our site Saturday, I was blown away at how beautifully she had put it all together!! I am a bit OCD and have trouble putting things in other people's hands, but not with her!! She put everything together in ways even better than I had envisioned and did not forget even one small detail.
And then the wedding day timeline! She kept us on track and ensured that every single one of the wedding events we wanted to cram into our few hours happened, and kept us on schedule, all while also letting us have our fun and spend time with our guests. The owner of our venue commented they had never seen a planner work so hard.
And the next day, when we came to collect our things, everything was packed up for us and with such great care for our collectibles. Our toasting glasses, cake serving set, etc. were all cleaned and put back in their boxes for us. Awesome!! Our day could not have been better and we have this lovely woman, no actually, lovely friend, to thank. Thank you, Gerry!

Where do I even begin... Words cannot express how thankful and how much we appreciated all the HARD work Gerry put into our special day.
She went above and beyond our expectations and made sure everything was PERFECT! Being a bride isn't the easiest task especially when it gets down to the wire, but when you have someone as talented as Gerry things just cannot go wrong. She is there for you when you have questions, concerns, stressful moments, meltdowns (LOL) &, etc. She was definitely my right hand throughout this whole thing.
On the night of the rehearsal dinner, I still was not 100% sure where I wanted all the decorations and was still unsure about little details... I let Gerry take over because I knew I didn't have time to figure things out, especially because I was not coming back to the wedding location until the ceremony started the next day. Let's just say she did not let me down! OMG things were just beautiful. She made my dreams a reality.
It’s because of her our day went so smoothly. We will be forever grateful and will always remember how insanely perfect our wedding day was.
I would and will recommend her to anyone looking to throw any kind of event… I promise you will not be disappointed.
