We are so glad we hired Sarah for wedding coordination. She went above and beyond to answer our questions throughout the planning process, spot gaps in our plan, and make our day run smoothly. She is easy to work with, has excellent connections with other wedding vendors, and made our day more magical than we even anticipated. Our wedding was a multicultural event, and we threw out a lot of typical wedding traditions in favor of things that felt more authentic to us, and Sarah was 100% on board with all of it. Her enthusiasm helped us stay true to what we wanted at the end of the day. Thank you, Sarah!

  • Serves Ilwaco, WA

Special events can become a cluster of stressful tasks to keep up with, from the flowers, food & drinks, to the venue, photographers, and decor. For these reasons, CME Experience is here to lend a hand in all of your event planning responsibilities.

Chloe is truly one of a kind, and we feel so lucky we got to work with her. She planned our backyard wedding in under 5 months and made the entire process feel smooth, stress-free, and even fun! From the very start, she kept us on schedule, recommended amazing vendors, and took over all the vendor communication—which was a huge weight off our shoulders. She is so knowledgeable and gives the best advice! Her knowledge of the area and local policies was super helpful, and she even gave us clear instructions for getting our marriage license. She even let us borrow candles, cameras, and other beautiful items from her inventory and took things off our plate at every turn. Chloe was truly a joy to work with. She made us feel so comfortable, confident, and at ease. On the day of the wedding, we had zero worries—we knew Chloe and her team had everything under control. Thanks to her, we were really able to just be present and enjoy every moment. She is a true gem, and we’re endlessly grateful for her care, calm, and creativity. Would 100000000% recommend CME Experience!! There honestly would have been no wedding without her haha

We are here to support you through all the decisions and creative visions that come with the wedding planning process. We are inclusive of all couples and all love stories.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Finn was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. If you're wondering whether a planner/coordinator is worth it, the answer is yes. Having Finn meant we, our family, and our wedding party could truly enjoy the day instead of answering questions or worrying about logistics. As someone who plans events professionally, I know how much coordination goes into pulling off a successful event—and weddings are in a league of their own. From our first conversation, it was clear that Finn was experienced, organized, and confident. She immediately put us at ease. Although we hired Finn as a day-of coordinator, she provided so much more than day-of support. Throughout the planning process, she answered countless questions, communicated with vendors, created our timeline, reviewed the venue's plans to catch details and potential issues, offered thoughtful recommendations, and truly served as our advocate every step of the way. She also has a helpful collection of planning resources, vendor recommendations, officiant guidance, and rental items. She even offered to pick up our wedding cakes for us! Finn ran our rehearsal and wedding day seamlessly. She made sure everyone was prepared, everything stayed on schedule, and every behind-the-scenes detail was handled without us needing to think about it. She also helped my brother prepare to officiate his first wedding, taking the time to walk him through everything beforehand so he felt comfortable. What impressed me most was her demeanor. Weddings are fast-paced and unpredictable, and Finn remained calm, kind, cheerful, and collected throughout the day. She treated us, our family, wedding party, and guests with genuine warmth and professionalism. Several guests even commented on how wonderful she was. That's a rare quality and one that made such a difference in the overall experience. I've been to weddings where vendors are visibly stressed and short with guests, and you don't need to worry about that with Finn. Our wedding day went so smoothly because of Finn, and we were able to be fully present and enjoy every moment. I truly can't recommend her enough -- she is exactly the person you want in your corner on one of the biggest days of your life.

There aren’t enough words to express how incredibly grateful we are for Evelyn and the team at Love & Laughter Weddings! Planning a wedding alone felt so overwhelming but the moment we brought Evelyn into the picture she made all our stress and worries melt away.

Hello, my name is Saige and I want to thank you for stopping by A Touch of Saige Events! Founded in 2013, my motivation behind ATOS was simply to help make other people’s wedding dreams come true. Building a relationship with a couple and learning their likes and dislikes so it’s like we’ve known each other for years is how we craft proposals, elopements, and weddings that speak to the uniqueness of each couple’s vision.

Awarded Best of Zola
We cannot recommend Saige and her team enough! Our wedding was July 26th, 2025 at Mountain Field Farms in Palmer, AK. We had 130 guests, with nearly half traveling up for our wedding. It was everything we hoped for and more. We met with several wedding planners to find the right fit, and it was clear from the beginning that Saige was the most experienced and the best one to bring our vision to life. I won’t lie – I’m a bit Type A ;) – and she handled the entire planning process with grace, calmness and professionalism. We would often come to her with our half-baked ideas and she knew how to refine and execute them into something cohesive (and stunning!). It was really fun working and co-creating together. Apart from the decor, rentals, and timeline planning, she also provided us with great resources early on – like obtaining your marriage license, an AK travel guide (so useful for all of our out-of-state guests), tips and tricks guide, etc. I was also so impressed by the way she worked with all of our vendors. You can tell they really respect and enjoy working with her. We had zero worries on our wedding day and were reassured knowing that everything was handled and in Saige’s care. We are so grateful for her hard work and couldn’t have imagined our wedding without her. 1000% recommend A Touch of Saige Events for all your wedding/event planning needs!

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!!

On the wedding day, Nicki was a force of nature behind the scenes—handling logistics, managing vendors, solving problems before they even surfaced—all with a smile and grace that kept everyone calm. She brought us food, drinks, water—whatever we needed before we even had to ask. Thanks to her, we were able to be fully present and soak in every moment, knowing everything was in the best possible hands. What made it even more incredible? The value.

Hiring Victoria was the best decision we could have made for the success of our wedding! VEVENTS was our venue's preferred day-of coordinator, and we understood why after our first meeting. Victoria is organized, capable, approachable, and really knows her stuff. She's also just plain fun! Every meeting felt like a discussion with a (very efficient) friend. She offered ways we could bring our wedding vision to life, recommended vendors that fit our needs and values, and gave us real talk about how to prioritize and allocate our budget. We opted for a mini planning package in addition to day-of coordination, and I'm so glad we did. I'm very particular about details, and Victoria was the right person to handle much of the coordination leading up to the wedding. I felt comfortable and confident knowing Victoria was our main point of contact for our vendors in advance and on the day of the wedding. Everything seemed to run smoothly the whole evening, and I was so happy Victoria was there to make sure we were on schedule and where we needed to be at the right time.

Forever Greene Events did an absolutely perfect job at our wedding in June. Their communication style was efficient, easy, and reliable throughout the entire planning process. The quality of their work and value was amazing - they were hard-working and the end result was absolutely beautiful. They stepped in with a rude caterer to get the job done and handle the situation without adding any stress to us as the bride and groom. Forever Greene Events worked so hard to make our vision for the wedding come alive, and the decorations and setup were done exactly to our request.

Aisle Daisy is the perfect hire for your wedding planning/floral needs! From the very beginning, Kayla's communication style was super communicative, professional, responsive, and she was super easy to get along with. She always made me feel really comfortable throughout my planning process and never made me feel like I was crazy throughout the whole thing (even though I felt like it lol). She was incredible to work with, always available when I needed her and making me feel supported and confident leading up to the big day. The quality of Kayla and work and attention to detail was nothing short of amazing - Kayla and her team, Ryleigh, executed our vision with perfection, creating a beautiful and carefully curated event. The florals were absolutely stunning, straight out of a magazine, and the table execution was better than I could have ever imagined. Genuinely felt like I was living a fairytale and I never wanted the day to end! Although there were a few minor hiccups throughout the day (as is typical for any wedding), Aisle Daisy handled everything seamlessly behind the scenes so my husband and I literally had no idea - which is exactly what you want from your wedding coordinators/florists and all of your vendors. I cannot recommend Aisle Daisy enough for their honesty, professionalism, and ability to bring your dream wedding to life. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

I cannot say enough incredible things about Erin. Above and beyond does not begin to cover it! Look no further for any of your wedding planning needs. We hired Erin for our month of coordinator almost 2 years in advance. From the beginning, she was very responsive, informative, kind, and helpful. I am pretty organized, and she consistently thought of questions I didn't! I was very impressed with her demeanor with myself and the rest of our vendors. Our venue required a pre-approved coordinator, and Erin took the steps to contact them to make sure she would work out, and we are so glad she did! She did everything she said she would and then some. She reached out to all of our vendors, worked with us on our timeline (many times!), attended our rehearsal, and never got frustrated even when we had a lot going on. Erin felt more like a friend than a coordinator, and we are so happy we got to spend our special day with her. Our day went so smoothly from start to finish, and we know this is due to Erin's impeccable attention to detail. If you are looking to have an incredible day with a crisp timeline and no stress - Erin is your gal!

From the initial concept all the way to your Grand Exit, we'll work together to ensure that every detail is intentional and reflects your love.

My wife, Lindsey, and I were blown away by Tabria and her assistant Rebecca! Tabria was our day-of coordinator, and made everything go so smoothly the entire time. It was the most beautiful, perfect day! No wedding is completely perfect, and we absolutely had our little mistakes here and there, to no fault of our own–just misplacing items and not being able to find certain ceremony items. Tabria was there for us 110% and still made sure everything went right! Somehow our glassware for the traditional “breaking of the glass” went missing, and she was able to find replacement glassware for us to use! I was having a small issue with the venue the morning of–our sound equipment had not been provided yet, and I thought that it was arriving a little later than expected, even though I was told it would be there at the time of set up. When it was getting closer and closer to the ceremony, and there was still no sound equipment, I asked for Tabria’s help. I was getting really stressed out and it was eating into my getting ready time. She was so, so helpful, and even gave me advice on how to approach talking to the venue manager about it once she arrived on site. I so appreciate her help–without it, I fear I would have completely lost my cool. I was also trying to help folks decorate and let them know where things go, but with the stress of this situation, I was really overwhelmed. She told me not to worry about things, took the reins, and everything was absolutely gorgeous when we walked out. One of my groomsmen had a terrible rip in his pants right before the ceremony started. We have no idea how it happened, but it was really bad. Thankfully, his suit jacket covered it for the ceremony, but he was obviously horrified and wanted to be able to take his jacket off. We later learned that Tabria sent her assistant, Rebecca, out on a mission to get him a new pair of pants! Our wedding venue was tucked away in Wine Country, in Newberg, and she had to drive at least 20-30 mins into town to find something for him, in his size, in the correct color. She came back with a new pair of pants and my groomsman was amazed and relieved! All in all, the schedule of events worked out exactly as we had planned it, and she was so lovely to work with. We could not have asked for a better coordinator! We cannot recommend Tabria enough! You can truly trust her!

If you have a vision you need made into reality, look no further than the amazing planner that is Gina! My husband and I had a very unique and specific vision for our wedding that was out of the ordinary and a challenge. It’s not very often you encounter a gothic wedding after all. After meeting with several planners, Gina stood out as the one that could realize what we had planned. Gina was incredibly organized, calming, and detail-oriented from start to finish. She coordinated with us and vendors flawlessly with ample communication and expert guidance. Through vendor troubles and venue changes, she made it all happen. On our wedding day, she truly went above and beyond when creating our dark and moody wedding truly bringing our dreams to life. The day of wasn’t nearly as chaotic as it would’ve been without her help and we truly couldn’t have done it without her. Our wedding day was stress free and will be remembered with nothing but fond memories and joy. Overall, we highly recommend Gina and we thank her so much for everything!

We believe the best celebrations aren’t just beautiful, they’re meaningful. They’re the moments when families come together, friends reconnect, and memories are made that people will talk about for years. Planning an event can quickly become overwhelming. Between coordinating vendors, managing timelines, & handling all the little details, it’s easy for couples to spend more time worrying about logistics than enjoying the experience. That’s where we come in!

From our first conversation, we knew Golden Events was the right choice for us. Their communication was prompt and thorough every step of the way, which made the planning process feel smooth and stress-free. On our wedding day, the team showed up as the glue that held everything together—they were organized, calm, and executed every detail perfectly. What impressed us most was how relaxed they seemed despite managing so much behind the scenes, and how their kindness put us and our guests at ease. They functioned like a well-oiled machine, communicating seamlessly with each other to make sure nothing fell through the cracks. We can't thank Golden Events enough for making our day exactly what we dreamed it would be.
