With over 20 years of experience in the wedding industry, we are passionate about creating unforgettable wedding experiences for our brides. Our goal is to make your special day even more beautiful and seamless than you ever imagined. From the smallest details to the biggest moments, our team is dedicated to helping with all of your wedding day needs and ensuring everything runs perfectly from start to finish.

Judy checked in with me the day before the wedding to see if I needed anything, which I appreciated. On the wedding day, she made sure I had water since it was very hot, and she checked in a few times to see if I needed anything. I also noticed how she interacted with the couple, and it was clear they really liked her. It’s always nice working with someone who helps keep the day moving and supports the couple throughout.

Hi, I’m Bailie — a wedding coordinator who believes your wedding day should feel effortless, joyful, and completely you. ✨ With experience in weddings, event design, and details that make celebrations memorable, I bring a calm, organized presence to every event. From timelines and vendor coordination to rehearsal management and décor setup, I’m here to handle the behind-the-scenes so you can be fully present for every moment. I treat every wedding with care, attention, and the same excitement I’d bring to my own. I can’t wait to help bring your vision to life! 💍

Hiring Bailie as our day-of coordinator was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. We went back and forth for months about whether we really needed a coordinator, but looking back, we truly don’t know how we would have done it without her. Bailie stepped in and took so much stress off our shoulders. She handled all the behind-the-scenes details, kept everything on schedule, communicated with vendors, and made sure every little detail we cared about was taken care of. She allowed us to be fully present and actually enjoy our wedding day instead of worrying about timelines and logistics. She was professional, organized, calm under pressure, and genuinely invested in making our day perfect. Bailie went above and beyond, and we are so grateful we trusted her. If you’re debating whether you need a day-of coordinator — take this as your sign. She is worth every penny!

From our first meeting with Carolyn, we knew we were in good hands - my wedding stress immediately subsided. Carolyn was incredibly on top of it, resourceful, and knowledgeable throughout the entire wedding planning process. Their thorough, creative approach was an absolute life saver - Fete Events had so many helpful tips and tricks, and they perfectly set up all of the decorations with limited direction from us. We wouldn't have been able to pull off our special day without her expertise and dedication. We HIGHLY recommend Fete Events for a wedding planner that will go above and beyond.

Hi, I’m Morgan! Thank you so much for being here. I am the Owner and Lead Planner of MBK Events. Let’s get straight to it - I freaking love love and I love planning. I swear, celebrating love, planning events, and getting to meet new people is my specialty. While planning my own wedding, I realized that so many Brides are not enjoying the process - so, that's where I plan to step in! I officially launched my business in October of 2021 so I can help other brides execute, plan, style and enjoy the wedding planning process. It is the most magical time of your life so lets make sure it feels magical all the way to the big day!

Awarded Best of Zola
I don’t even know where to start, as this review could be an entire essay— to put it simply, Morgan is the best. And that is truly not an exaggeration. We scheduled our first call with Morgan before we had any plan for our wedding. There was no date, no venue, no idea of what the day would look like. The second we spoke to her, we knew we had to work with her, and that everything else would fall into place from there. She kept everything with all of our vendors organized and communicated with all of them so we didn’t have to stress about a thing. Any hiccup or challenging moment we had, she solved. She built the perfect timeline, kept everyone on track, and made the planning process feel way easier than we expected. People were constantly asking us how stressful wedding planning was, and it truly was not at all, because of Morgan. And then came the wedding day… with rain. But Morgan handled everything so beautifully. She pivoted, problem-solved, kept me calm, and made sure the day turned out 10x more beautiful than we could have imagined. Her and her team were always two steps ahead. Morgan made sure we could actually enjoy our wedding, and we did not have to manage any details that day. This was all amazing! But what I find truly so special about Morgan is all the things that I didn’t expect when working with a wedding planner. The things people don’t see… her calming me down as I cried minutes before the ceremony (because I was delusional and for some reason thought it wouldn’t rain), her reapplying my lipstick, holding my dress while I peed, putting deodorant on me midway through the night, keeping drinks in our hands, so we could spend time with our guests, making sure we actually sat down and ate, taking my extensions out when I was ready for my hair to go up, I could go on and on. During all of that she was managing every bump in the road that occurred- problems that Riley and I will never even know about because she handled them for us. And beyond all this, Morgan is truly the kindest person. We felt like we had a friend holding our hand through our entire planning process. We were sad when our monthly meetings came to an end; she was such an important part of our lives for over a year. She brings energy, fun, love, and thoughtfulness to everything she touches. We are so grateful to have met Morgan, the wedding planner, and the person.

Kalyna Black came on as our day-of coordinator less than 3 weeks before our wedding in June 2025. She quickly became so much more. With her tenacity, intuition, and gift for event planning, she transformed into our wedding planner, florist, space designer, and all-around lifesaver. She took a huge load off our shoulders, stepping in exactly when we needed it most. As the day got closer, her quick response time and clear communication helped everything fall into place smoothly. Her creative eye brought our vision to life—especially my dream of wildflowers, which she wove beautifully into the rest of the décor. The space felt like us, through and through. Kalyna was also amazing with guests and vendors—friendly, warm, and completely in command. Everyone felt welcomed and well-directed by someone who clearly knows exactly what she’s doing. As the bride, I was able to have a calm, easy morning getting my hair and makeup done, fully confident that the setup and guest arrivals were in Kalyna’s capable hands. We couldn’t have done it without her.

I worked with Amanda while planning my May 2026 wedding at Hard Rock Los Cabos. As a Type A event producer myself, I honestly wasn't sure I needed a wedding planner - but hiring Amanda was one of the best decisions I made. I found Amanda on Instagram after seeing the beautiful photos from her own wedding, and from our very first meeting I knew I was in good hands. Our monthly planning meetings quickly became something I genuinely looked forward to. She made the process exciting and enjoyable instead of overwhelming, and always brought a calm, positive energy. Amanda's vendor recommendations were incredible, and she always stood behind them. She helped us decide where to splurge, where to save, repurpose décor throughout the day, negotiate with vendors, and ultimately saved us time and our wedding budget. She also managed countless emails, follow-ups, and logistics, saving us an unbelievable amount of time. Most importantly, she gave me complete peace of mind. On our wedding day, I never worried about timelines, vendors, or logistics because I knew everything was under control. I was able to be fully present and enjoy every moment. I truly can't recommend Amanda enough. If you're debating whether to hire a planner, do it - you won't regret it.

Hey, I’m Isa! With over 10 years in the event planning industry, I’ve had the joy of helping bring love stories to life in the most meaningful ways. Being Brazilian, I naturally embrace different cultures, traditions and styles - Making every event I plan feel unique, personal and true to each client. I’m here to take the stress off your shoulders and turn your vision into a day you’ll never forget!

From day one, Isa made us feel like we were working with a friend, not just a vendor. She responded to every text and call in a heartbeat, even when we needed to vent about the small stuff, and her calm demeanor helped us stay grounded through the planning process. What really set her apart was how she advocated for us when the church wanted to change our ceremony, she stepped in and made sure everything happened exactly the way we envisioned it. On our wedding day, she had thought of everything: from bobby pins and toothbrushes to custom vow books so we could actually read our vows to each other instead of squinting at our phones. Our guests couldn't stop talking about how seamlessly the day flowed, and honestly, that was all Isa. She anticipated what we needed before we even asked, handled every detail with ease, and somehow made the whole process feel personal rather than transactional. We're already planning our next event with her. BABY SHOWER #1 locked it with you girl!!

It was a pleasure working with Kaiya! She was very cooperative, knowledgeable, and organized throughout the entire process. The package I chose with Kaiya was the event management service. Wedding planning was a bit stressful for me since it was just my partner and I planning the whole thing together but 3 months before the event Kaiya jumped in and helped manage all of our vendors, helped with day of timeline, and more. She also helped coordinate the rehearsals and the day of the wedding. I truly did not have to worry about a single thing on my wedding day, Kaiya handled everything with ease and care, and she guided us through our timelines of events that day with expertise.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but my wife and I actually looked forward to our planning meetings. She listened to our vision, offered creative solutions, and anticipated needs we didn't even know we had. When unexpected rain threatened to dampen our spirits, she stepped in with backup venues, alternative photo locations, and solutions that kept our celebration running smoothly. Our guests had an absolute blast, completely unaware of the behind-the-scenes magic she was working. To any couple planning their wedding, I cannot recommend Sanjam highly enough. She doesn't just plan weddings – she creates experiences, manages emotions, and turns potential stress into pure joy. Our wedding was perfect, and that's entirely because of her incredible skill and dedication.

As the founder of AWE Planner, you might wonder: How did she become a planner? How many events do we coordinate each year? What inspires us about this work? For founder Jenn Greel, becoming a wedding and event planner was a natural path. Her journey began with bartending private events, and planning gatherings for friends, which eventually spared the idea of launching her own planning business. From our first wedding fair to signing our first client-who happened to be a coworker at the time-AWE Planner was built from scratch. With every event we've learned, grown, and harnessed our experiences to shape the outstanding team we are today.

Jenn is phenomenal! We hired her as a month-of coordinator for our wedding. In the final weeks leading up to our wedding, she created a floor plan and timeline for us, coordinated our rehearsal, and guided us on things like signage and vendor tips, which we would have been completely lost on without her help. She was very responsive (and patient!) as we peppered her with questions. We were already impressed with her at that point, but she really shone on our wedding day. There was so much going on, and she and her assistants handled it all so seamlessly. She made sure that everything was set up, everybody was where they were supposed to be, and that my husband and I were well-fed and hydrated throughout the evening, and she did it all with a calm demeanor that put everyone at ease. We were even ahead of schedule for most of the day! Here's a little story about Jenn and her team's attention to detail: She asked us ahead of the wedding day what drinks we wanted to have waiting for us at dinner. My husband asked for a Diet Coke. In my vows during the ceremony, I made a comment about how he prefers to drink Diet Cokes with no ice, and then when it was time for dinner, his Diet Coke had no ice! We were touched that Jenn and her team were listening and cared to make that personal little change. If you're planning a wedding and are wondering whether you need a coordinator, 1) yes, you do, and 2) you need to go with Jenn! She's the best :)

From guiding couples through the planning process to managing timelines, vendors, and logistics, I ensure everything is aligned long before the wedding day so my couples can be fully present and enjoy every moment.

I had the pleasure of working alongside Lyuba from Coordinated by Love for a wedding this past weekend, and she was absolutely wonderful to collaborate with. She was attentive to her couple, handled the day’s dynamics with grace, and stayed calm and friendly through every change and unexpected moment. Her organization and positive energy made the entire day run seamlessly — a true professional who genuinely cares about her clients and their experience. I’d happily work with her again!

I had a very unique style wedding and most of it I tried to do DIY. In a nutshell, it became extremely overwhelming for me, so I asked my planner Rebecca to assist. Her and the owner were so kind enough to make my original package of Day of Planning, to Full planning at a discount! Saved my whole wedding day. I cried a few days before my wedding because remembering all the months prior, they were there for me every step of the way. And on the day, everyone kept asking me, Is your planner a friend of yours? I honestly told them, 100% yes. :) Because I feel like we now are friends. Such a family orientated company. I highly recommend.

Casey’s Curated Events made planning our destination wedding an absolute breeze. Casey was there every step of the way with incredible energy, organization, communication and above all dedication. From the beginning, Casey took the time to truly understand my vision and explained the planning process in a clear, easy to understand way which was especially helpful while planning a destination wedding on a short five month timeline. I felt supported and informed throughout the entire process. I gave Casey full creative freedom with our invitations, and she completely delivered! Her creativity and attention to detail set the tone for our wedding from the start. She was also incredibly responsive, making herself available via email, text, and phone, and handled communication between the travel agency, resort coordinator, and vendors seamlessly. As the wedding approached and decisions felt overwhelming, Casey always reassured me and helped narrow down options, making everything feel manageable. From creating a comprehensive packing list (down to things like bobby pins!) to personally making sure we didn’t have to worry about the little details, Casey thought of everything. When we arrived at the resort, she took the time to walk the property with us — showing us the ceremony and reception spaces, photo locations, rehearsal and helping us visualize the full experience. She also joined us in meeting the on-site coordinator and ensured everyone was aligned. Her ability to advocate for us, ask the right questions, and clarify details made such a difference, especially since most communication with the resort had taken place via email. On our wedding day, Casey was truly amazing. She coordinated everything behind the scenes, kept everyone on schedule, and solved problems before we even knew they existed. Her calm presence, care, and positive energy allowed me to fully enjoy every moment of our wedding. Thank you, Casey, for going above and beyond. Having you as our wedding planner was truly a blessing.
