Gavin Esham Events 
Rating: 5.0 (19 reviews)

  • Offers 7 services
  • Starts at $250
  • Serves Athens, PA
  • Offer

Gavin Esham is a Pennsylvania-based wedding and event planner who combines artistry, creativity, and organization to craft meaningful celebrations. With a background in opera, theater, and dance from Northwestern University, he spent years performing on stages across the world — from international venues to Broadway. That experience gave him a unique perspective on timing, flow, and the energy it takes to create unforgettable moments. After stepping away from the stage, Gavin was recruited into the world of events, where he discovered his passion for guiding couples and clients through the planning and design process

“Gavin has my absolute highest recommendation. He was easy to work with (and SO incredibly fun to work with) during the planning process and kept us on all the important timelines. When we started to feel the stress, he was amazing at reassuring us and calming the nerves. As a September nor’easter bride, almost every event of the weekend had to pivot to alternate locations or backup plans. As the bride, I felt none of the logistical stress. The morning of our wedding, we all woke up with no power in our cabins and no power at the ceremony site due to the storm. I opened my phone and saw there was already a plan in place for hair and makeup for the bridal party. There was a plan in place for the ceremony even if the power did not come back on. What could’ve been a disaster was entirely mitigated by Gavin and his working/coordinating with all the vendor teams. I never had any fear that things wouldn’t work out knowing Gavin was working to ensure we’d still have the party of our dreams. I cannot thank you enough Gavin. If you are looking for a planner, look no further as you have found the one!”

Whether you are looking for support in the final weeks or full guidance throughout the planning process, I tailor each service to fit your needs. My role is to keep everything aligned, organized, and running smoothly so you can stay present and fully enjoy your wedding.

“Melanie exceeded every expectation. I initially hired her to decorate my wedding ceremony and reception space since my venue did not provide those services. I ended up utilizing her for so much more! She ran my rehearsal dinner, reviewed all of my contracts, coordinated timelines with all of my vendors, managed my ceremony, and stayed after to break down and pack up. She even brought in her own cake stand and signage to let me use because they were details I had forgotten. She took the time to understand my vision in the weeks prior and everything turned out better than I could have imagined. I really don’t know what I would have done without her. I would recommend her 100 times over.”

From the monthly pre-wedding meetings and venue walk-through to the actual wedding day, she showed up x100 and made our day a success. I felt very comfortable during our meetings and Krista was organized and created a very helpful day of timeline amongst many other details. Hiring Krista was one of the best decisions I made in the wedding planning process. You will NOT find anyone more trustworthy, proactive, and detail-oriented. She was kind, professional, detail oriented, flexible and prompt. On my wedding day it was especially helpful to have someone there to keep things moving smoothly. It really allowed all of us to enjoy the day. My parents and bridal party have ALL mentioned how impressed they were by her on the big day. Even our other vendors mentioned how seamless the whole day was thanks to Krista. Krista asked all of the questions I didn't know needed to be answered. She constantly responded to all of my chaotic texts and emails SO quickly and was always so helpful. I genuinely do not know what I would have done without Krista on my wedding day. Anytime I needed anything throughout the day, Krista was always there to assist, ready and willing with a positive attitude! I would highly recommend Krista to all future brides or anyone in need of planning services and am so grateful she made our special day absolutely amazing! - Brittany & Geoffrey”

She put together an incredible design deck and handled all of our decor, rentals, stationary, signage, etc. To say that it was a weight off our shoulders is an understatement.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Jenna and Amalia were absolutely amazing leading up to and through our wedding weekend. In the weeks beforehand they did a great job keeping us organized, tying up loose ends, mocking up decor, communicating with many vendors, and finding us a last minute videographer within budget. We had many moving parts during our wedding weekend and they were behind the scenes ninjas making sure that everything looked stunning and people were where they needed to be. From the first meeting we could feel their authenticity and care for making our wedding everything we wanted it to be, and they delivered that and more. They always made themselves available to us throughout the process and never made us feel like we were behind or unprepared though sometimes we definitely were. Our wedding weekend had numerous events, cultural moments, vendors, and moving parts especially because it was a summer camp-Indian-Peruvian-fusion wedding, but nothing seemed to dim this team’s ambition. Jenna’s enthusiasm and excitement were always a source of light and encouragement for us in some of the tougher days leading up to the wedding and Amalia’s cool demeanor and get stuff done attitude moved everything along with ease. Despite the tight schedule and challenges we threw at them, Jenna and Amalia made both me and my husband feel grounded after every interaction. Seeing their smiling faces in the crowd during the weekend events was always a source of comfort. They make an incredibly balanced and capable team. PS they were so great with our pup too!”

She helped us with the searches for everything—venue, DJ, photography, day-of coordination, flowers, catering—and provided us timelines and organization tools that were genuinely invaluable. We had very little idea going in exactly what was needed to plan a wedding, but Brittany’s collaboration made us feel very on top of things. She also worked with us to troubleshoot things when issues arose (like our flower provider not following some of our communication requests).

While planning events as a side hustle for over a decade, I have also been a nonprofit event coordinator, farmer, and music festival planner. My background gives me a unique perspective on each wedding I plan. Sustainability, Inclusivity and Couple Advocacy are extremely important to me. Some fun facts: Leo with Taurus Moon and Libra Rising, ENFP, a Peacemaker, and I love a good personality quiz. I'm a sucker for fashion, and like to joke that ! can smell a good consignment/vintage shop. I had a wedding Pinterest 8 years before I even met my husband, and I will do anything in my power to give you the wedding you want.

“I don’t think I can truly explain or fit into a review how amazing Kris with unKAGed events is! We hired Kris because this was a destination wedding for us and we needed help with locating vendors and wanted to feel like we had someone that we could work with in the area that was familiar with the industry and able to coordinate day of for us. I had my initial call with Kris and immediately felt comfortable and listened to with any questions or concerns I had with planning. She offered us different vendors for catering, rentals, dj and cake. She setup up tastings and meetings with all vendors making sure we felt comfortable and confident with every vendor we went with. Kris went above and beyond being CCd on every email and on every call. She provided quick and accurate information throughout the planning process. We ran into issues with our venue along the way and Kris was right there beside us helping us and working through it. What can feel like the chaos of wedding planning we knew we could trust her and rely on her. When it came to day of as a bride it’s hard to feel like you don’t have full control over your day. However trusting Kris after working with her leading up to the big day I knew she was going to do all she could to bring my vision to life and make the best decisions for our wedding. She did just that! I can’t put into words how much she did for us - from all the work leading up, rehearsal, setting up ceremony site, setting up cocktail hour, setting up the reception tables and seating chart and then breaking it all down after - she truly does it all!! I knew I was hiring someone to help us along the way and for the day of our wedding what I didn’t know is I was hiring someone who would care about us the way she did.”

“This review is far overdue but so unbelievably deserved. I will start by saying that my husband and I got married in March of 2025. Engaged in September of 2021. We always wanted to have a wedding but having had a baby in 2023, the amount of planning and money that went into it all just kept making us push things back. There was a time where we weren’t sure if we would ever actually have the wedding we dreamed of or if we would just book an appointment at the courthouse and call it a day. I never even considered hiring a wedding planner, just another added cost, right? WRONG. Cause girl, let me tell you, Bri and Karin are the ONLY reason our dreams of a real wedding turned into a reality. We provided them with a budget and some ideas of what we thought we might like and what they came up with was truly amazing. Options galore and nothing my husband nor I would have ever even thought of. They found us a venue that didn’t break the bank and fit us perfectly. The food was delicious, the decor was beautiful and they made sure everything went to plan, on time as scheduled, the day of. ZERO stress on me or my husband allowing us to truly be present and focus on soaking up everything and everyone on a day that goes by in the blink of an eye. All for less than what we thought we would have to spend! They are sweet, they are creative, they are punctual, they are responsive, they are attentive, they listen, they CARE, their attention to detail is out of this world, they are FUN and it is evident they truly love what they do. The best decision we could have ever made was hiring them to plan our wedding. We are forever grateful for the time, effort and love they poured into our special day. If you’re overwhelmed by all of the choices and decisions out there that go into your wedding like we were, do yourself a favor and CALL THEM!!! Thank you Bri and Karin!!! We love you!!!”

“Amanda was one of the best parts about our wedding day. As a type-a bride I thought I would be okay without a day-of coordinator and boy was I wrong. We hired Amanda about a month before the wedding and she took control right away and even adapted her normal process to pick up where I left off and made it even easier for me. Everyone was telling me how amazing she did and we already have her booked for my cousin's wedding at the end of this year! We could not have been as stress free, had as much fun, and fully be present without Locke Events!”
