MEET sandy stringer
YOUR bridal pro and coach
Since I can remember, I have enjoyed making lists, plan events and bring people together while always having a glass of champagne available for the extra sparkle.
After diving into the hospitality and tourism industry and experiencing the corporate life all on two different continents, I moved to California to add my 5 cents to the wedding and event industry and that’s how Strings & Champagne Events was created over 18 years ago.
I look at all of the details, find gaps to fill and create a complete experience for you. It’s simple and straight forward, so you can sit back and enjoy the ride.
Do I wear a headset? No, I’m not JLo, but I have my ways of communicating with all of the professionals while you celebrate yourself with your friends and family.
When I’m not planning events, you can find me traveling with my family, out on hikes in Lake Tahoe, at the gym or reading a book with a glass of bubbly. Oh yeah, and on Monday nights I can’t turn off The Bachelor/ette, Bachelor in Paradise or The Golden Bachelor/ette.

completing the puzzle
Some of you wait until all of the roses are handed out and ask me to wipe off all the sweat and tears at the end. You know this will happen and reserve my services 6-12 months in advance and then I come in, 6-8 weeks before your wedding day and seal the relationships. I will reach out to all of your vendors to discuss logistics and confirm that all elements are planned for. This is an exclusive service and includes performing the wedding rehearsal, creating a timeline, decorating the venue with personal items, creating a floorpan and more. Pricing starts at $3,400.
