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.

Rose Event Company

  • Serves Santa Ynez, CA

I’m Ashley, the owner of Rose Event Co. I love being able to share in the love of two individuals and feel lucky to get to work with such wonderful people each day! I’ve been planning weddings and events for over eight years now, and I couldn’t be more thankful with where I am now in my business. I primarily serve the OR | WA | CA markets, but will travel anywhere!

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Ashley at Rose Event Co as our Day of Wedding Coordinator was definitely one of the best decisions we made in planning our wedding. I thought I was going to be able to manage planning our entire wedding myself, but as the day crept closer and closer, I realized that I was definitely going to need a hand. We spoke with a dozen different coordinators, and Ashley just stood out SO strongly amongst the rest. To put it as simply as possible, she saw our vision, she understood it, she stood in and shared in it with us. She knew exactly how to support us in making it happen, and she was easily able to make us feel that. We initially had concerns about her being located so far away from us (we're in Oakland, CA), but she put those concerns to rest so quickly! Throughout my months of planning after hiring Ashley, she was always there to answer my questions, and provide support and reassurance in all of the little things that I just wasn't sure how to handle myself, and she did so with such grace, patience, and an air of calm that was so extremely helpful and reassuring. When the month of our wedding arrived, Ashley quickly got to work on communicating with and organizing all of our vendors and laying out the structure for the day. She traveled to Monte Rio to be with us the day before our big day, walked us through the ceremony, went over all of the details, and left us so confident and comfortable in her extremely capable hands. The day of the wedding, Ashley handled EVERYTHING and EVERYONE with such care and tranquility. All of our wedding vendors absolutely loved her, and we never stopped hearing about how great she was to work with! Ashley is an absolute BOSS in all of the best ways that you can imagine! She is supportive, encouraging, communicative, active, helpful, caring, the list just goes on and on. She wants you to succeed, and you can FEEL it. She remembered and double checked on all of the little details, before, during, and after our wedding, and words simply cannot express our gratitude. She did so many things automatically, that I hadn't even thought to discuss with her, but was so grateful that we had her there to do. Thank you Ashley!! She did so many little things that I didn't even realize until I started looking through all of our photos, and noticed that they had all been done. On top of all of that, she basically packed up the entirety of our decor with the assistance of her extremely helpful husband, which was such a huge relief for us and for our wedding party who had put so much into the day. We were all able to completely disconnect and just enjoy the evening, which was so unbelievably priceless. There are so many things that make Ashley stand out from other coordinators. So many coordinators that we had talked to before Ashley had a big list of things that they would NOT do, but not Ashley. She was willing to do whatever needed to be done to ensure that our wedding day went perfectly, and it did, thanks to her!! HUGE bonus, she brought along her Super 8 camera, and we CANNOT WAIT to see the footage!! If you're looking for someone who has your back, and can handle ALL of the things with a level of calm that oozes into everyone around her, HIRE ASHLEY! You absolutely will not regret it. Thank you so much Ashley, for EVERYTHING that you did, and for ALL of your help in making our wedding day so unbelievably perfect!!

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. He was a joy to work with as he has such a positive and professional attitude. He made our day the best day ever and we'll always be so grateful for him!

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. Our wedding was the most memorable, relaxing, and enjoyable experience for us and many of our family and friends as well! Without Brenda and her team we would’ve been much more stressed and lost.

Maria is the founder and lead visionary of Wünderland & Co., known for transforming creative ideas into unforgettable celebrations. 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.

This is a waaayyy overdue review for Wunderland Co./Maria. This is a review from someone who not only didn’t want to hire a wedding planner, but prior to planning a wedding genuinely did not think I would need one (our venue required one). As someone who can plan and DIY almost anything, I genuinely believed it was a waste of money. So let me lead in with this, the BEST money I spent on my wedding was Maria. From start to finish she became my rock and confidant. She was so responsive, honest, warm and helped bring my vision to life in a way I would not have been able to! You really don’t know what you don’t know with planning a wedding. We joked on the wedding day that it was really our wedding. Planning a wedding can grow so many legs, and ours definitely did. She brought calm when I was losing it and clarity when dealing with vendors. It was a pleasure working with her and I am sad I now no longer have a reason to text her randomly. If you are on the fence or unsure, look no further. You’ll get all the creative genius you see with some of these “bigger” companies, mixed in with the kindness and local salt-of-the-earth honesty. She will listen to you and genuinely respect where you at in any decision process. I would throw another party in Santa Ynez just to see her again.

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. They're worth every penny for the amount of value they provide, and the level of professionalism, care, and heart they bring to the process is unmatched. We honestly can't imagine doing it without them.

If we could give more stars we would, Lily ABSOLUTELY deserves it. She was perfect as our wedding coordinator! Even before we officially hired her, she offered to meet me at the venue while I was visiting from out of state, which immediately showed her thoughtfulness and dedication. Her genuineness is what made me confident she was the right person for the job. Before her services officially started, she was always available to answer questions and offer guidance. We purchased the Champagne Package that included 6 weeks of weekly one-on-one meets. She made the meetings fun and something I genuinely looked forward to — thanks to her, I felt excited about the wedding rather than stressed! When she knew she would be unavailable during trip that overlapped with her scheduled service start time, she proactively started her services early to make sure everything was covered — such an incredible level of professionalism and care. Lily made the entire planning process feel seamless and joyful. Her energy, organization, and support on the wedding day were unmatched, and I truly couldn’t have imagined a better coordinator. She made everything feel effortless, fun, and memorable, and we are so grateful for her! Can't recommend her enough!!!

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
When we first connected with Clemence, we were feeling overwhelmed and anxious. With our wedding less than six months away and having recently parted ways with our original planner, we were in urgent need of someone who could bring our dream wedding to life. Clemence stepped in with infectious enthusiasm, and from the outset, it was clear she genuinely cared about realizing the vision we held for our special day. An early experience that solidified our confidence in Clemence, and one we will always cherish, was our engagement photoshoot. Just a week after our initial meeting, Clemence learned of our upcoming anniversary trip to the Loire Valley, where we planned to stay at a Chateau and have our engagement photos taken. The photographer we had initially found was unresponsive, creating a stressful situation. Clemence immediately took charge, connecting us with an amazing Parisian photographer she had collaborated with previously, Lea Everin. Within a couple of days, she had arranged a two-hour photoshoot for us at the Chateau. This swift action and dedication left us speechless and demonstrated a level of commitment that truly made the entire experience unforgettable. Clemence excelled in understanding and aligning with our expectations, particularly regarding organization. She effectively utilized a shared spreadsheet to keep us synchronized on tasks and, crucially, the budget. Her proficiency with Canva was also a great asset, allowing her to create clear visual representations for elements like table settings and decor, which was immensely helpful. During our meetings, Clemence had a remarkable ability to make us feel as though our wedding was her sole focus. She also introduced us to an outstanding team of vendors, including the talented photographer Renata Amazonas and Katlyn Jernigan from Toast Catering, all of whom contributed significantly to our day. What truly set Clemence apart was her receptiveness to feedback and her proactive approach. We had several productive meetings at the venue, which fostered a sense of calm and shared understanding, ensuring our wedding would be everything we envisioned. She also skillfully managed the planning process itself, making it feel like a unique and enjoyable experience in its own right. We'll never forget how she coordinated with cake vendors; after we expressed our desire for a fun and memorable tasting, she arranged a delightful experience at the venue with Connor’s Cakes, complete with delicious samples and champagne. Given the exceptional service leading up to the wedding, it's hard to imagine Clemence could have surpassed our expectations on the actual day – yet she did. Our wedding day proceeded flawlessly. Despite concerns about potential rain leading into the weekend, Clemence had worked diligently with us to prepare for all scenarios. Thankfully, the weather was beautiful, and we had the most perfect wedding we could have ever asked for. Throughout the entire day, we were completely free of worry, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in and savor every precious moment. Thank you, Clemence, for truly making our entire wedding journey and the day itself absolutely perfect. We will cherish these memories forever.

Kari was so incredible to work with. She thought of everything and more to make our day so special. As the bride, I was never stressed on our wedding day because of her. It was the perfect day because she kept us on time, helped with vendors, let everyone know when and where they were supposed to be. She cares deeply about her couples and is a joy to work with. Highly recommend her and her team for all event services. She’s goes above and beyond. We were so grateful.

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.

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. We cannot recommend Dana and her team highly enough to any couple looking for a wedding planning team that will truly make their day unforgettable. Could not imagine our day without her!
