Desiree was our coordinator for our wedding this past June, and we would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a day-of wedding coordinator! Desiree made us feel comfortable and confident from our very first meeting with her via Zoom. She seemed knowledgeable about the wedding planning process and was also just super happy for us which made the year leading up to our wedding feel even more special. She was always responsive when we had questions and she absolutely KILLED it on the actual wedding day. She completely handled setup and even did our dinner tablescapes which turned out more beautiful than we could have imagined. We did have one hiccup where there was a miscommunication and Desiree ended up not making it to our venue walkthrough a few weeks before the wedding, but it turned out fine since she already had familiarity with our venue and because we were able to answer all of the venue's questions ourselves. Anyway, this is just a small portion of what we loved about working with Desiree, but it's safe to say we feel great about our choice of wedding coordinator and would definitely go with Desiree if we had to do it all over again.

Rose Event Company

  • Serves Santa Ynez, CA

I’m Ashley, the owner of Rose Event Co. I love being able to share in the love of two individuals and feel lucky to get to work with such wonderful people each day! I’ve been planning weddings and events for over eight years now, and I couldn’t be more thankful with where I am now in my business. I primarily serve the OR | WA | CA markets, but will travel anywhere!

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Ashley at Rose Event Co as our Day of Wedding Coordinator was definitely one of the best decisions we made in planning our wedding. I thought I was going to be able to manage planning our entire wedding myself, but as the day crept closer and closer, I realized that I was definitely going to need a hand. We spoke with a dozen different coordinators, and Ashley just stood out SO strongly amongst the rest. To put it as simply as possible, she saw our vision, she understood it, she stood in and shared in it with us. She knew exactly how to support us in making it happen, and she was easily able to make us feel that. We initially had concerns about her being located so far away from us (we're in Oakland, CA), but she put those concerns to rest so quickly! Throughout my months of planning after hiring Ashley, she was always there to answer my questions, and provide support and reassurance in all of the little things that I just wasn't sure how to handle myself, and she did so with such grace, patience, and an air of calm that was so extremely helpful and reassuring. When the month of our wedding arrived, Ashley quickly got to work on communicating with and organizing all of our vendors and laying out the structure for the day. She traveled to Monte Rio to be with us the day before our big day, walked us through the ceremony, went over all of the details, and left us so confident and comfortable in her extremely capable hands. The day of the wedding, Ashley handled EVERYTHING and EVERYONE with such care and tranquility. All of our wedding vendors absolutely loved her, and we never stopped hearing about how great she was to work with! Ashley is an absolute BOSS in all of the best ways that you can imagine! She is supportive, encouraging, communicative, active, helpful, caring, the list just goes on and on. She wants you to succeed, and you can FEEL it. She remembered and double checked on all of the little details, before, during, and after our wedding, and words simply cannot express our gratitude. She did so many things automatically, that I hadn't even thought to discuss with her, but was so grateful that we had her there to do. Thank you Ashley!! She did so many little things that I didn't even realize until I started looking through all of our photos, and noticed that they had all been done. On top of all of that, she basically packed up the entirety of our decor with the assistance of her extremely helpful husband, which was such a huge relief for us and for our wedding party who had put so much into the day. We were all able to completely disconnect and just enjoy the evening, which was so unbelievably priceless. There are so many things that make Ashley stand out from other coordinators. So many coordinators that we had talked to before Ashley had a big list of things that they would NOT do, but not Ashley. She was willing to do whatever needed to be done to ensure that our wedding day went perfectly, and it did, thanks to her!! HUGE bonus, she brought along her Super 8 camera, and we CANNOT WAIT to see the footage!! If you're looking for someone who has your back, and can handle ALL of the things with a level of calm that oozes into everyone around her, HIRE ASHLEY! You absolutely will not regret it. Thank you so much Ashley, for EVERYTHING that you did, and for ALL of your help in making our wedding day so unbelievably perfect!!

Michele was our full wedding planner. Our wedding went perfect without a single hitch and it was all thanks to Michele. We had the caterer for our rehearsal dinner drop out one week before the event and Michele found us a replacement within an hour; and the replacement caterer was a slam dunk. Everyone loved the food. On the day of the wedding and rehearsal dinner Michele and Dan did everything. And I mean everything. She set up tables, positioned flowers and welcome signs and seating charts. She ironed over disagreements with vendors and never once did we have to lift a finger. It is a common saying that the bride and groom never enjoy their own wedding but we thoroughly had a blast at ours thanks to Michele. She is forever our go-to recommendation to all our friends getting married. If she has availability to plan your wedding, book her.

Randy's years of experience doing day of coordination showed in his ability to plan, ask the questions we didn't know to ask, and to offer great suggestions to help us save money and create our wedding vision. And, he brought a comforting balance of humor, kindness and seriousness to the process! He was extremely responsive to all our questions, and was a strong advocate in working with our other vendors, and made sure vendor coordination ran smoothly day of. He was the go to on our day, taking care of behind the scene details, as well as practical things like fluffing my dress before walking down the aisle, and traveling to pick up our wedding cakes. Randy went above and beyond to make the day extra special for us, checking in with us throughout the evening, always giving us a reassuring smile. We would definitely recommend him for your big day!!

Angie, you were absolutely incredible to work with. We had a wonderful time partnering with Angie to create our dream wedding. She was recommended to us by our venue, The Ritz-Carlton Bacara, and we are so happy we chose her! Angie has such a positive personality, always kept everything under control, and never let us feel overwhelmed. It was so smooth at times we wondered what we were forgetting, and Angie always reassured us that we had it all covered. She did it ALL - from getting our vendor rates and availability sorted to showing us all our options and details that made the day come to life. Through our regularly scheduled calls and all the messaging in between, she asked all the right questions to help guide the process, (even for things we hadn't even thought about) and was always available for the one-off questions and to keep us sane, especially during those final two critical months before the big day. Angie also has a wonderful website that organized all our to-do lists, inspo pics, budget info, timelines, vendor details, etc. We didn’t realize how essential something like this was for keeping us on track, and it was little extra details like this that made such a difference. It's because of Angie that we had such wonderful vendors, a significantly less painful planning experience, and a flawlessly executed wedding day!

Everyone who was able to attend our wedding has said it was “one of the best weddings ever” and they loved how everything was setup, and none of that would’ve been done without the Gathering for Goods team.

With extensive knowledge about the wedding and event industry and established relationships with top vendors, KB Events assembles the perfect team, expertly curated to compliment your personality and story.

Working with KB Events was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. We did the partial planning package, and it ended up being so much more service than we expected. From day one, we felt taken care of every step of the way. Hannah was an absolute superstar. She's organized, direct, and incredibly knowledgeable about Santa Barbara weddings. Every interaction, calls, emails, meetings, rehearsal, wedding day - was professional, kind, and efficient. She has this calm, confident energy that immediately puts you at ease, and it made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and enjoyable. She had amazing vendor recommendations (and clearly great relationships with them), but what we really appreciated was her flexibility. When we wanted to bring in a few of our own vendors, she was completely supportive and made everything feel seamless. Nothing was ever awkward or forced, it was a true collaboration from start to finish. The wedding day itself was flawless. Every detail ran on time, the communication was clear, and we were able to fully relax and enjoy the celebration knowing we were in the best hands. The end result was more beautiful and meaningful than we could have dreamed of. It was clear throughout that Hannah truly cared about us - not just as clients, but as people, and that personal touch meant the world. If you're getting married in Santa Barbara, I can't recommend KB Events enough. They're worth every penny for the amount of value they provide, and the level of professionalism, care, and heart they bring to the process is unmatched. We honestly can't imagine doing it without them.

When I used to think of wedding planners, I pictured the movie version — someone with a headset, barking orders, and obsessing over every tiny detail (I've never been married, so I literally had no idea what to expect!!) But oh boy, was I wrong. I’m not the type of bride who grew up pinning wedding ideas or dreaming about dresses. When I got engaged, I just knew I wanted to celebrate that year, especially since my parents have health challenges and I wanted them to be part of something truly special. But once you start planning a wedding, you realize how overwhelming it all is — the costs, the choices, the emotions. I’m a TV producer, so I know what it takes to plan a big event, but wedding planning is its own beast. It takes people like Haylie and Becca to make it all come to life. Becca, in particular, was like an extension of me. She was funny, caring, and endlessly patient. She offered thoughtful advice when I had no clue what I was doing, and she made sure everything ran smoothly even when I was emotionally overloaded. She’s also incredibly creative — she even hand-made beautiful pieces for me that made the day feel so personal. Haylie and Heirloom Event Co made sure my wedding wasn’t just organized, but deeply special. They’re not the stereotypical “crazy planners with headsets” — they’re a compassionate, talented team who balance professionalism with heart. They understand what matters most: letting you actually be present with your partner, your family, and your friends. My day was better than I could have ever imagined, and I’ll forever be grateful for them.

Even after eight full hours, she remained enthusiastic and uplifting, hyping up the crowd, encouraging fellow vendors, and maintaining such a positive atmosphere throughout the entire event.

Armed with a Project Management Professional (PMP) certification, I possess the expertise to seamlessly manage all aspects of your wedding, ensuring that every detail assigns with your vision and goals.

Awarded Best of Zola
There are a lot of wedding industry people that I've had the pleasure of getting to know and Slay Events with Lily stands out. These are the traits that you will find in her and her group: 1. Detail Oriented - SO SO much detail goes into a memorable wedding and Lily is the kind of person to ensure that EVERY detail is accounted for, allowing you to relax and ENJOY the experience. I've seen several couples OVERJOYED with her team on their wedding day because every detail was taken care of. 2. Charming - Here's a hidden truth about the industry -- as a vendor, it pays to be magnetic and charming because it greases the wheels and makes things happen. If you look tired, unfriendly, and unreliable, no one will want to work with you. HOWEVER, if you are positive, well put together, and professional, then vendors, coordinators, and caterers take you seriously and will work well with you. This means getting all the puzzle pieces to the perfect wedding in place on your special day. Lily's company is not only respected by the clients she works with but also among those in the wedding industry. For myself as and wedding venue, I breath a sigh of relief whenever I hear that Lily is on the job. Her magnetic personality is a perfect fit as So Cal's premier wedding coordinator. 3. Hard Working - Lily goes that extra mile to make sure the lead up to your special day is worry free and enjoyable as possible. My tell tale sign of a good coordinator is that on wedding day, they are BUSY and COMMUNICATING. Lily is a buzz of activity, directing the couple and their families, and staying in touch with vendors and caterers. She understands that she is the linchpin who ensuring that the day is a success. Highly HIGHLY recommend Slay Events.

As the mother of the bride, I was able to relax and enjoy the entire day without a single worry, as the Thyme & Details team took care of absolutely every detail. The bride was present, relaxed and happy the entire day thanks to their hard work. We would highly recommend this vendor to any couple planning their wedding.

Serene Events and Design were an absolute joy to work with for our wedding. Korina was always readily available to take phone calls or reply to texts, and she responded to emails quickly too. Although I didn't get full service planning, Korina went well beyond what she was hired for - she helped us find a venue promptly after our first one burned down. On our wedding day, Korina and her team made everything seamless from start to finish. They made wonderful design suggestions that were executed to perfection, and I had not a worry in the world on our day. I wanted to give Korina a very heartfelt thank you for bringing the vision of our wedding to life.

Kari was so incredible to work with. She thought of everything and more to make our day so special. As the bride, I was never stressed on our wedding day because of her. It was the perfect day because she kept us on time, helped with vendors, let everyone know when and where they were supposed to be. She cares deeply about her couples and is a joy to work with. Highly recommend her and her team for all event services. She’s goes above and beyond. We were so grateful.

I don’t usually write reviews, but after working with Brandi, I felt it was important to share just how amazing she is. My wife and I would 1000% recommend Brandi to anyone looking to get married in the greater Orange County area! We came into the wedding planning process with just a rough idea of the theme we wanted, and Brandi helped us bring it to life in ways we couldn’t have imagined. From the very first meeting, it was clear that Brandi’s extensive experience in the wedding industry and her deep knowledge of the OC area would make her an invaluable partner. She worked tirelessly to help us make decisions, offering suggestions when we needed them, and helping us stick to our vision every step of the way. Her established relationships with local vendors were another huge asset. She connected us with fantastic photographers, florists, and even a DJ who perfectly matched our style and budget. It really felt like we had a team of experts working in our favor, thanks to her recommendations. Beyond her impressive organizational skills and vendor network, Brandi’s professionalism and passion for weddings really stood out. It wasn’t just about getting everything done — she truly cared about making our day unforgettable. Her attention to detail was impeccable, and she always went above and beyond to make sure we felt supported. She anticipated every need and handled all the little things that came up with such grace, leaving us free to fully enjoy our big day. From start to finish, Brandi made the planning process so much easier and, most importantly, stress-free. Thanks to her, our wedding day went off without a hitch. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better planner. If you want a planner who’s not just professional but also passionate, caring, and completely dedicated to making your day perfect, Brandi is the one to choose.
