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.

Kayla & the Ascend Events team was an absolute pleasure to work with & I hope that we work in tandem for many more future events. I own/operate Mount Tom House and worked with Kayla as we planned a couple's wedding weekend. Sometimes my job & responsibilities as the venue host overlaps with a wedding planner's. I loved working with Kayla because her communication was clear, consistent, and honest throughout the entire planning process & we were able to jointly work together as a true *team.* I was involved in the couple's on-site planning meetings and it was SO COOL to see Kayla take the couple's ideas & preferences and bring them to life at Mount Tom House. Kayla's work was extremely thorough, creative, and day-of she was one of the hardest working people at Mount Tom - she didn't stop all day! She is a true advocate for her clients and for the hired vendors. She doesn't leave a single stone unturned and is extremely detail-oriented in her planning (a huge value to a venue owner!). If you have the opportunity to work with Kayla, whether as a fellow vendor or as a couple seeking wedding planning and coordination, I highly, highly recommend you seize the opportunity!

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!

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Erin was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the moment we started working together, her communication was fast, clear, and incredibly helpful — no question was ever too small, and she always made time for us, even during the busiest weeks. That alone brought so much peace of mind. Throughout the planning process, she was a constant source of support. When the inevitable wedding stress crept in, she was the calm in the storm — offering reassurance, solutions, and a steady presence that helped us stay focused on what really mattered. On the wedding day, I didn’t have to worry about anything. Seriously — everything just flowed smoothly. It felt like magic, but I know it was her hard work behind the scenes. What amazed me most was realizing she took care of things I hadn’t even thought of. From little details I would have forgotten to last-minute adjustments for possible rain. Our day was perfect, and a huge part of that is thanks to Erin. If you’re considering working with her — do it. You’ll be so glad you did!

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!"

If you are currently looking for a wedding planner – STOP EVERYTHING ELSE RIGHT NOW AND BOOK OLIVIA IMMEDIATELY! You will not regret it. Olivia went above and beyond 1000% when helping us plan our wedding. It simply could not have happened so smoothly and perfectly without her. Olivia is extremely kind and attentive and was a huge support throughout the process. We had some ups, downs and twists with things out of our control and Olivia pivoted flawlessly to fix things and put any stress I had to rest. She is a positive force to be reckoned with and was an absolute pleasure to work with. I am a very DIY planner type myself but you simply cannot be there managing everything on the actual wedding day. You NEED someone to help and Olivia is that person. She was an excellent sounding board for all of my thoughts and ideas, a layout making queen and she dealt with my vendors seamlessly! The #1 absolute best decision I made when planning my wedding was hiring Olivia. SO SO WORTH IT. Thank you Olivia!!!

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.

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. I cannot leave a review without mentioning her contagious energy! She has the most positive spirit and energy. Our photographer told us at the end of the night she assumed we had been lifelong friends with Ashley. What more could we ask for than someone that fit in with our crew all day into the night!

Delaney did such an amazing job running the show at my wedding! We had a lot of set-up that she executed for us perfectly, and some quirky timeline/vendor things that she managed really seamlessly. We had rain, which was a little stressful, but she helped keep us calm and deal with the changes in the timeline/plan that occurred as a result. She was right there when we needed her, all night, with a smile on her face. She was the perfect balance of "going with the flow" when things came up but also getting things done in an efficient and organized way.

Hiring a coordinator was among the best decisions we made for our wedding. It simplified our planning, clarified what we actually wanted, gave us a trusted voice amidst aaaaall the advice out there (solicited and not solicited!), and made us feel like someone had our back for anything unexpected (like, of course, a torrential downpour as we walked into our reception).

As the day unfolded, her coordination kept everyone in the loop, gave us all time to breathe, transition, and regroup! I can easily recommend Mina to anyone looking for an detailed, and carefully run wedding day. She was as friendly as she was professional, and didn't skip a beat.

That's why Golden Day Wedding Co offers a completely customizable planning/coordination packages. I want to hear your wedding day vision and work with you to identify specific needs. Maybe you want a vintage popcorn machine or you're looking to include your pets in the ceremony. Or maybe you want to book a live band and DIY your floral decor. Whatever ideas you may have, I want to work with you to make your wedding as amazing as you've imagined!

We met Kacie from Golden Day over a year before our wedding date and booked her after our very first meeting. Choosing a day-of coordinator really comes down to personal preference. We met with some coordinators who were pretty aggressive, and came off as overbearing. That’s not Kacie. Kacie acts as a calm, stress-neutralizing sounding board for your ideas. Anything you share with her is met with, “Yes, that’s a great idea, let’s make it happen.” She doesn’t try to steer your vision; instead, she supports your creativity and helps keep it on track as your ideas evolve. She shows up when you need her and is always willing to take a phone call without hesitation or making you feel like you're on the clock. With Kacie, there were no stupid questions, we could ask her anything, even twice, and we were met with her optimistic attitude and supportive responses. On our wedding day, Kacie maintained her positive, poised demeanor as she set up the entire ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception space with very little help. There were some issues at the start of the ceremony, but Kacie never seemed phased. Not once did she let stress show or allow it to leak into our headspace leading up to, or during the big day. Kacie was also incredible about making sure we actually ate on our wedding day. So many friends told us, “You’ll never eat at your own wedding.” Well, they clearly didn’t hire Kacie. After the ceremony, cocktail-hour appetizers magically appeared while we waited for our grand entrance. As soon as we sat down, she had plates of dinner ready for us. At the end of the night, my wife and I were actually able to head to the after-party with our friends, and that was because of Kacie. She stayed behind and left the venue spotless so we wouldn’t incur any additional charges. In fact, she wrapped everything up so efficiently that our catering team was able to leave early, and we were credited back an hour of service. Our day truly was golden, if we could choose one word to describe it, as corny as that sounds. And it wouldn’t have happened without Kacie.
