Dawn has been producing creative events in New York and California for over 15 years. You’ll most often catch this bi-coastal party maker biking around Greenpoint, BK or in her home state of California loading up on burritos and baseball games.

As a photographer who has documented over 300 weddings, I have worked with my fair share of planners - and there is nobody I get more excited to work with than Dawn and her extraordinary team. Not only does she do a SPECTACULAR job creating fun, interesting, and cool custom designs while also managing all of her clients’ needs, she also is so on top of managing all her fellow vendors respectfully and effectively. She has always been the best in Brooklyn (that’s why she is on almost every preferred vendor list in town!!!) and now that she is bicoastal in LA, too, she gets to expand her absolutely amazing business - but also that means you should book her ASAP before somebody else nabs her.

When my husband and I started our journey to plan our wedding, I knew we were going to need some help. We are non traditional, with very eclectic tastes, and we were going to need someone special to help us pull off all of our insane ideas. I extensively researched over 20 coordinators, had a phones calls with 5 different companies, but ultimately I knew Ashley from Rose Event Co. was going to be the one. From the start she personable, intelligent, and made me feel understood in what our vision was for our special day. Throughout the process she was punctual with all of our appointments, gave helpful suggestions, and made me feel confident leaving my type A personality and needs in her hands. The weekend of the wedding came, and a lot of creative problem solving as well. We rented a private mansion for our event and did the rehearsal the day before. Ashley was there early, having already communicated with my other vendors and the venue to make sure we would be prepared for our big day. What we didn't expect was the kitchen under construction, furniture and decor that had not been moved at our previous requests(but promised), rooms that we had planned for, but could no longer use, and the Venue staff not "remembering" months worth of text and phone call conversations about our needs and expectations, as well as their promises and what they were supposed to deliver. There were other issues, but I digress. Ashley immediately stepped in with ideas and to be the go between with the Venue, and to help troubleshoot the long list of problems that had now come up. The night before was stressful for my Husband and I, not knowing if we were going pull this off, but I knew with Ashley, we were in good hands. The day of she brought her A game, a stunning red dress, and handled business. She was not afraid to get involved and make sure everything we wanted happened. She listened to our needs, knew when to step up or step down, was super flexible in our timeline and made sure to handle any issues that arose during the wedding. Her ability to read a situation and adapt to the issues at hand made her the perfect fit to our crazy ideas. She has incredible creative problem solving and is kind hearted and hard working. If it wasn't for Ashley, we could not have pulled off our day. I would recommend her 10x's over, to any bride that wants an absolute badass by their side. She handles business, and gives confidence to her clients. Thank you Ashley and Rose Event Co. for turning what could have been a disaster into a day dream!

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 was amazing to work with from start to finish. His experience and attention to detail were what really stood out to us from the beginning. Our main goal was for our wedding day to be relaxing and stress-free, and Randy made sure of that. He handled all day of organization and was attentive even months out leading up to the day if we had any questions or review calls. We loved that he listed to our vision but also gave great suggestions based on his past experience. There were many moving parts and multiple vendors involved, and Randy handled this with precision and extreme organization. Especially working in corporate events professionally myself, I knew exactly what I was looking for in a day-of coordinator and that was Randy.

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!

Brenda and her team were so helpful and made sure our day was perfect! She was quick to respond on any questions we had and was always willing to help via call or email.

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.

Based in the Santa Ynez Valley, her team of seasoned event and production pros has spent over a decade crafting beautifully curated weddings, intimate gatherings, and inspired styled shoots. They create experiences designed to spark joy and bring your daydreams to life.

Wünderland & Co. is absolutely amazing! I started working with them 13 months out from my wedding at Piocho Ranch, and they exceeded every expectation. From organizing a full team of vendors to bring everything into the venue, to coordinating transportation logistics for 240 guests, they handled every detail with precision and grace. Since I live far from Santa Ynez, I couldn’t meet in person often, but Wünderland & Co. kept communication seamless through regular calls, messages, and updates. Their team designed beautifully curated spaces, solved problems before they ever reached me, and brought genuine warmth and joy to the entire process. Planning a destination wedding for 240 guests is no small feat, but I would do it all again with Wünderland & Co. in a heartbeat. Incredibly kind, talented, and charismatic women!

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.

Ingrid is one of the greatest planners we have had the pleasure of working with in this industry. One of her couples recently used our company, which provides faux floral rentals, to couples looking to save on flowers for their big day. Her responsiveness and impeccable attention to detail truly set her apart from most others in the wedding space, and she does so with such precision and empathy. Timeliness and thoughtfulness are extremely difficult to juggle when it comes to weddings that have so many moving parts, yet Ingrid’s unique capability to execute on both fronts makes her such an asset to work with. Her consistent, on-the-dot responsiveness completely took care of every single question leading up to the event date, and we never had to worry about getting an answer back on anything, which is so rare and deeply appreciated. We worked with Grand Entrance Affairs on a wedding happening on the Queen Mary, which is known to be a logistically more complex venue in terms of setup and weather conditions on the water. Ingrid ensured that all potential hiccups were accounted for long before the event, and has a unique gift for taking care of every single detail and deadline in a way that only someone with profound love and experience can pull off. She has the ability to juggle many different temperaments, extreme time constraints, and a million moving pieces and transforms them all into an unforgettable and beautiful event. She and her team truly embody white glove service and thoughtful attention to detail every step of the way. We will be referring her to all of our clients moving forward.

The Perfect Pair Wedding

Hi! I am Clemence the face behind The Perfect Pair Wedding :) I am born & raised in France, in the city of love Paris. During college I got the chance to do a semester abroad in San Diego, and met this really special, handsome, American guy... You see it coming? YES! After 3 years of long distance relationship, I finally married the love of my life. A little bit about The Perfect Pair Wedding... it is a San Diego based Wedding planning company, we plan & design weddings all over Southern California to bring to life our Perfect Pair's dreams.

Awarded Best of Zola
Where do we even begin? Before hiring Clémence, we met over a video call, getting to know each other to make sure we worked well together. We think this is an essential step in choosing any wedding planner, since ideas need to be communicated in both directions. Being on the same page about the vision of your wedding is key. It did not take long at all for us to know that she was the absolute best choice for us. Clémence is incredibly friendly and holds herself to such a high standard, and that shows in the work she does. She has an entire process for planning that includes timelines of when things are to be done, vendors are to be booked, and more. Everything is laid out clearly, and she checks in regularly to make sure things are on track. These timelines start from several months before the wedding and go all the way down to the day itself. She makes it known that she wants your day to be exactly how you want it and works hard to achieve that. Whenever we had a new idea or a modification to an existing one, she was always open to hearing it and working to make it happen. We went with an Italian garden-style theme for our wedding, and Clémence executed that vision perfectly. We somehow seemed to be on the same wavelength about everything. Not only did she follow through on executing our ideas, but she also incorporated her own input that fit into the wedding and expanded on it perfectly. As first-time bride and groom, we struggled with knowing how to budget properly. Clémence helped us spend in places where it made the most sense for us and save on things we didn't need. Bit of a random anecdote, but we wanted to have pizza at the end of our afterparty. Our initial search was going to have us spending hundreds of dollars to have standard pizzas delivered to our venue. Clémence saved the day when she found an even closer shop that made heart-shaped pizzas for a fraction of the cost. As Clémence has been doing this for a while now, she's gained rapport with several vendors and was able to speak to the quality of their work and service. This took so much pressure off of us, since we didn't merely have to trust the sales pitch of whatever vendors we happened to find on our own. Once we had our vendors locked in, Clémence took care of managing timelines for each, such as when to meet with them, choosing items for the wedding, and payment schedules. Not only does she work her hardest when she's by your side, she also has your back when you don't even notice. Nearly a month after the wedding, we found out that our venue's staff was incredibly rude and unhelpful to our vendors. This forced everyone to work at 110% to compensate for the lack of assistance. However, the way Clémence handled this was with such grace and professionalism that we didn't notice, nor did any of our guests, that things weren't running smoothly. Her integrity is truly inspiring. As cheesy as it may sound, we've gained a genuine lifelong friend in Clémence. The influence and quality of her work extend far beyond wedding planning. If it wasn't clear already, we cannot recommend Clémence enough. Her work speaks for itself and was by far the best investment we made for our 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.
