As the mother of the bride I had the mistaken belief that I could plan and organize my daughter's wedding this summer. Boy, was I wrong! Fortunately I realized I needed help.. Rhiannon and Heartbeat Events were a lifesaver! Rhiannon's check-ins prior to the wedding insured everything was ordered and scheduled. The best part though was the day of the wedding. I didn't have to worry about anything, but just being the mother of the bride. Rhiannon and her crew were so helpful and made the day the perfect event for my daughter and her fiance' that I wanted it to be.

I have been planning events for the last 20 years, on the side. I have always loved hosting people, and I've done a few bridal and baby showers. At my previous job, I helped plan several employee luncheons and holiday parties, with about 100-150 employees attending. I even led the planning a few times. In the summers of 2021 and 2022, I became an on-site wedding coordinator for a local venue, with 5 weddings each summer. In 2023, I coordinated 11 weddings, and in 2024, I coordinated and planned 17 weddings. I'm halfway booked up for 2025!

Hello, I'm Olivia! I love to craft authentic, deeply-curated events that truly celebrate you and your partner. That means I live for the funky details: adding wild turkey feathers to your floral arrangements, asking the ring bearer to dress as a hobbit, ditching your heels for some comfy sneakers during the reception, getting hitched at midnight… whatever you can dream of! I like to say, "everyone's been to a wedding... but they haven't been to YOURS!"

Olivia is worth her weight in gold! My partner and I got married at the end of June and had a wonderful wedding thanks to Olivia and her care, enthusiasm, patience, and attention to detail. Wedding planning is not for the faint of heart and early on in the wedding planning process my partner and I realized we were way in over our heads and needed help. I stumbled across Olivia’s day of coordination services, Round Pearl Events. She was happy to answer our questions before we even officially booked with her. Throughout the next ten months, we met with Olivia for our formal meetings, but she was also so responsive via email and text to any questions we had. She was very patient and compassionate in helping us navigate some tricky family situations and provided insights into making our vision of the day really come true.Olivia helped us coordinate challenges that we weren’t expecting, like how to plan childcare for all of the nieces and nephews we were excited to have on our special day. One of the most helpful things about working with Olivia is her many connections to vendors here in Oregon! Before we met Olivia, I would spend hours researching vendors and had no idea how to vet them or choose one and was incredibly overwhelmed. Olivia took out the guesswork and extensive research piece of the process and helped us find vendors in our price range that still provided a great service! Her help was invaluable, allowing us to spend the last month leading up to the wedding focusing on the fun experiences with family and each other. And when the day of the wedding finally did arrive, it was so beautifully organized and coordinated that we had to do nothing but enjoy our day with our family and friends. Olivia has so many tricks up her sleeve of how to make a wedding go smoothly and just in general is a compassionate, fun, and wonderful human being to work with! I had so many people come up to me during and after the wedding to say it was one of the smoothest wedding days they had ever experienced and we owe that all to Olivia. She truly helped us have the most beautiful and stress free day! My only regret is I don’t have any friends getting married any time soon that I can refer Olivia to!

I’ve been working in the wedding industry since before I had a driver’s license. My father is a SoCal based wedding videographer of 20 years. Starting as a young teen, he would let me tag along to weddings to help haul equipment. I fell in love with the hustle and I ended up working 15+ weddings as his assistant videographer before I left for college. Professionally, I have been working as a stage manager in events and entertainment for 9 years, mostly in the SLC, Utah area. I always felt the wedding industry calling me back, so about 3 years ago I began applying my events management skills to wedding planning and never looked back.

Finn was a godsend to our wedding. In the middle of what sometimes felt like chaos, they made me and my now husband feel completely calm and grounded. They managed to bring clarity and direction to our day. They gathered information from both of us and communicated regularly. It was clear they truly understood our needs and wants for the day. They skillfully managed and executed the structure of our wedding so me and my husband could focus on being present with each other. I highly recommend Finn to any couple. Finn will make you feel steady, organized, and celebrated all at once.

Ashley with Blue Lark Events was everything we needed and more when it came to having a day of coordinator for our marriage in Oregon at the Heceta Head Bed and Breakfast! We planned everything sight unseen, never being in the actual state we were getting married in while planning, and never having met Ashley in person. She was very thoughtfully planful, provided all of the needed information to feel confident in preparation and paid attention to every fine detail the day of. She ensured everyone playing a major part in our big day felt prepared and ready in their role/timing and was such an asset. She kept so many things organized so I could just enjoy being a bride.

All couples need Dana and her team with Thyme & Details for their big day. We hired Dana as a day of coordinator but she is so much more than that. She went to countless vendor meeting and kept track of all of my overly detailed instructions to make sure each piece of our day (timeline, vendor contracts, etc) worked with those details. When the venue dropped the ball, others got details wrong, or vendors fell through, Dana was always a step ahead and came up with even better solutions than our original plans. Dana really knows the ins and outs of organizing a wedding, is in tune with the Columbus wedding scene, and has incredibly valuable connections. Overall we were blown away by Dana and her team’s professionalism and dedication to our wedding. Dana’s communications were always prompt, detailed, and thorough every step of the way, making the planning process a breeze. She lead our rehearsal too which is exactly what we needed. Her team also went above and beyond the day-of to ensure every aspect of our special day was executed flawlessly.

Their communication style was direct, positive, and collaborative, with a solution-minded approach that put us at ease throughout the planning process.

What an amazing experience working with Alisha and her team at The Indigo Bride. This was a destination wedding for us and our wedding guests, and I could not have done this without them. I had never been to Oregon before I started venue shopping so I didn't know anything about the area or local vendors. Alisha gave me a comprehensive list of all the standard vendors and helped me find special vendors for guest activities I knew I wanted to include. I'm also bad with design but Alisha took my general ideas and made our wedding day stunning.
