He was very professional, on time, set everything up seamlessly, and was great to work with. He made beautiful arrangements of the songs that we chose to walk down the aisle to and he played and sang a song in the ceremony. It added SO much to have such quality live music on our special day. His voice is amazing and his guitar playing is perfect. Cannot recommend him highly enough! He is the best in the area by far.

I don't just capture moments, I ✨create✨ them! I'm for the couples who want photos that look candid, but are actually directed so you never feel awkward!! If you're sarcastic or a dog person, I like you already...if you want emotive photos that feel like art...HIT MY LINE.

My now husband and I like to pride ourselves on being different and doing things out of your “norm”. Gradually, when it came to our wedding we wanted to do things differently and that included our wedding pictures. I found Tessa on IG and I immediately knew that her style fit our vision. Let me tell you, she did not disappoint. Her work speaks for itself. They were everyyyything! I loved that she made me feel like I was a natural in front of the camera. Tessa is also very professional. Props to her for continuing to take our pics in the middle of the ocean while being sea sick lol worth every penny 3

Hey there! My name is Tiffany Wiere, the owner and sole wedding planner of Wiere Weddings! I was born and raised in Australia, and moved to the US 8 years ago to be with my husband. I am a hopeless romantic - hence moving halfway across the world for the man I adore! I studied hospitality management at the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa, and spent 4 years as a catering sales manager before making the switch to full time wedding planning. I absolutely adore the small details and believe each wedding is truly unique to each couple.

Awarded Best of Zola
Background of Our Wedding: Our wedding was in early April 2024 in San Luis Obispo, CA with a bit less than 40 guests. However, a big challenge was that we had our Ceremony venue at a different location than the Reception venue. We really needed a coordinator that wouldn’t shy from this challenge. Booking & Before the Month-of: We found Tiffany on Zola & booked her almost right away. Tiffany was very transparent with pricing and expectations of service. She was ready to answer any questions we had. If you feel like you’re unsure what you’re looking for, she has an answer for you or at least help guide you to know what you might want for your big day. It is a big plus that her website with the booking process was easy and straightforward. We got Tiffany for Month-of Coordination but it feels like she was with us along the way of the almost-a-year planning process. The Month-of: This is when you will be working with Tiffany the most! I enjoyed every single meeting, phone calls, and brief texts with her. Meeting with Tiffany helps me pull together our vision much better day by day. She helped me believe that we could achieve it all. Since we’re from out of town, she made sure that we’d meet up whenever we could to ensure everything would be in place for the big day. The Rehearsal: Tiffany was indeed the first one to be at the venue with our binder printed out. (I most definitely forgot to print my binder for her.) She greeted all of my wedding party with the most warm welcome, which we appreciated very much and felt very comfortable working with her. We had specific requests on timing of the processional and she made it work! After the rehearsal, we definitely felt that we were very ready for the big day. The Day-of: It’s time for you to let go. Because I promise you, Tiffany and her awesome team got it! I saw her the morning of & I felt so calm because I knew Tiffany was going to perform her magic for us. Tiffany’s team magically set up our Ceremony Venue in just an hour. By the time I arrived at the venue, things were already in place & neat. It was a great feeling to see your vision coming alive. I remember I was able to just toss my car key to Tiffany’s team member & they immediately understood what I needed. Everything from then on was just very on-schedule and beautiful. Tiffany dealt with our families with the uttermost grace and patience. There was nobody I’d trust more than her to carry out our day. I did not have to worry about anything. We just enjoyed our day the most. The End: Tiffany somehow packed up everything neatly for us and even some of our vendors - like a fairy godmother. She sent us a long text of where things were and even returned things for us to our vendors. Exactly what we needed! Made our day-after MUCH better. Tiffany, Sean, & Katie - We cannot thank you enough. We can’t wait to plan our few-year anniversary with you. Keep on shining.

Candice and her team were a pleasure to work with. She was professional, kind, and above all very adaptive. We had to pivot/switch up a few details due to weather on our wedding day and I was SO relieved by Candice’s ability to make quick, smart decisions without ever making me feel overwhelmed or stressed on the day of. This was essential as not everything can go as planned on your wedding day but I never knew about any of it and she worked fervently behind the scenes to keep it that way. As a hands on bride with a strong vision, I was comforted by how on top of everything Candice was. She was able to bring my ideas to life and the planning tools she utilizes ensure everyone is on the same page without things getting lost in countless email threads. Candice's insights and experience are invaluable and the energy she brings on the day of is unparalleled. Would recommend Candice and her team to anyone I know and so grateful for them on my wedding day.

Weddings have been a part of my life since I was six years old. Growing up as the youngest of eight cousins, someone was always getting married. The summer of my 21st birthday, I started my career with weddings at an Alaskan lodge hosting ten weddings that first summer. Since then I've worked in floral design, photography, & the food/wine industries. In 2017, I toured California working event logistics at five different festivals, including Coachella.

Rose and her team were a wonderful asset to ensuring the enjoyment of our wedding! We hired Rose as a month of coordinator for our May 2024 wedding. Once we started working with her the month prior to the wedding a lot of my anxieties regarding how the day was going to go were taken away due to her depth of experience and professionalism. She really took the reins during those last weeks to follow up on final details with our vendors and getting closer to the date I had people asking me if I was stressed out and I can honestly say that I was not as I knew that we were in great hands. The time frame leading up to the wedding I felt my excitement build with each meeting that we had with Rose! The day of the wedding her team of professionals I feel went above and beyond to ensure that everything was to my wishes. They constantly checked in on me during the whole day from when I started getting my makeup done to the last dance, I felt incredibly happy and was truly able to enjoy my wedding day. They made sure everything ran smoothly, that I stayed hydrated, that I ate at cocktail hour and dinner, helped me change into my second dress of the evening and even helped to fix my hair. I highly recommend anybody looking for a wedding coordinator to hire Rose to the Occasions. We are so glad that we did and can sincerely say that it made our wedding the best day of our lives!

Since 2008, I have been dedicated to making dream weddings come to life. My passion for being a wedding planner stems from the joy and fulfillment that comes with creating unforgettable moments for couples on one of the most significant days of their lives. Being born and raised on the Central Coast is a true blessing. I've grown to appreciate this unique and quirky place I call home as the years have passed. When I'm not flexing my planning muscles you can probably find me still in the mix at a local event, concert or winery. I'm a dog mom, a tiny human mom, and a lover of all things Italian.

Monica helped plan and execute my October wedding in the Santa Ynez Valley and we could have been happier with the entire experience. She was our wedding coordinator starting about 6-8 weeks ahead of the wedding, although she started working with us a few months out to make sure we selected vendors and contracts with the right details in mind. She understood our vision and the vibe we wanted for the day and TOTALLY delivered. She also did our flowers, and they were stunning. Monica ensured the wedding setup and day of schedule went off without a hitch. She worked so hard the day before and day of - especially on the tablescapes, which I had told her I cared a lot about. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone who needs wedding planning or wedding coordination.

My wife and I were married at 1800 El Pomar on April 1st. So many of our guests told us that this was one of the most beautiful weddings they’d ever been to, and the number one reason was the setting. A few months after we booked the date we were notified that the property was sold and we’d be dealing with new owners. Boy are we happy that Brit and Amber bought this ranch, because they made us feel so comfortable from the moment we met. So many improvements were made in just the few months leading up to our wedding, and they were always approachable and willing to help us with anything we needed. Brit even picked up extra firewood for us last minute and helped our make-up artist get her flat tire fixed on the big day. It’s a spacious property with plenty of parking and is easily accessible for the guests. The bathrooms are clean and modern, the layout makes perfect sense, and great pictures are super easy with a beautiful backdrop in any direction. We had 10 of us comfortably stay in the farmhouse, where we also hosted a rehearsal dinner for about 30 guests. Everything went smoothly and I can’t recommend using this property enough for a wedding or any event. We are so grateful to Brit and Amber, we could not have dreamed of getting married in a more magical place.

  • Serves Santa Margarita, CA

Started to study beauty since 1987... Discovered photography in 1999. Studied and practiced wedding photography since 2007. Studied people and relationships since 2008 (college degree in counseling). Started teaching others how to see light, beauty, color, and magical moments since 2017. "The lover is the student of the beloved"

Modern, Romantic and Fun – isn’t that what we want in all wedding photographers. We interviewed several wedding photographers to ensure we picked the right photographer for how we wanted to capture our love on such a special day. Within a couple minutes of talking with Cassia my fiancé and I both looked at each other with a look that was yup this is the one. Cassia spent time getting to know us and we were so happy to see her giving her time at a charity event we attended later in the year after we had booked her. This reconfirmed that she was the right pick. Leading up to the wedding Cassia was great with communication and preparing us for what to expect. On the day of the wedding it had been raining but you wouldn’t know it Cassia and her team were calm and ready to make our day happen regardless of weather. Cassia assured me we would still get the shots we had discussed and that we would creatively figure things out. We have about 20 pictures that she sent to hold us over until the rest are finished and oh my gosh they are so lovely. We have been getting tons of compliments on how she captured our love. Thank you Cassia for getting to know us so that you could capture the most intimate and personal moments as we start our married life together. I can’t wait to see the rest of the photos – we are sooo excited! We highly recommend Cassia and her team of photography professionals!
