Hi! My name is Tiffany Rivers, owner of Rivers Event Planning. I have been in the hospitality industry for 15 years. My journey started in culinary school as a young adult and then as an Event Banquet Captain for various catering companies on the Central Coast. My love for serving others lead me to receive a degree in Hospitality Management!

I had the joy of working with Tiffany, an outstanding wedding planner, at the breathtaking Villa San Juliette Winery. Despite the scorching 105-degree heat, Tiffany maintained a calm, cool, and collected demeanor throughout the day. Her presence alone was a source of tranquility, as she effortlessly managed every detail of the event. Tiffany’s dedication to her clients and colleagues is truly remarkable. Her genuine care was evident in the thoughtful way she ensured that I and others stayed hydrated in the extreme heat and adhered to our timeline flawlessly. Her organizational skills and attention to detail are unparalleled, making the event seamless and enjoyable for everyone involved. As a photographer, having someone like Tiffany to work alongside is invaluable, as it allows me to focus on capturing beautiful moments without worrying about logistical challenges. I am eagerly looking forward to working with Tiffany again. Her presence not only elevates the event experience but also infuses the entire atmosphere with positivity and calmness.

I am a hopeless romantic - hence moving halfway across the world for the man I adore!

I absolutely adore the small details and believe each wedding is truly unique to each couple.

On the day of our wedding, she was on top of everything, keeping the timeline smooth and stress-free so we could truly enjoy our day. Her calm and positive energy set the tone for everyone around her, and it was clear she genuinely cared about making our day perfect. We couldn’t have asked for a better coordinator.

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.

Her expertise in event planning lended so much insight into what was needed to organize the event in the weeks prior, and her team’s attention to detail made our rooftop event really feel like a celebration. She and her team not only handled set up, decorating, and takedown, but she also offered kindness and joy to us throughout our time working with her.

Moonglow Floral is a boutique floral design studio that creates extraordinary floral experiences for discerning clients hosting events on the Central Coast of California. We strive to create a concierge experience for busy clients through a streamlined planning process, clear communication, and creative guidance. Moonglow Floral strives to be a safe and inclusive business for BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ clients as well as a safe vendor for all ages, bodies, and abilities. Moonglow Floral is happy to collaborate with clients to incorporate cultural or religious traditions into their floral designs. Inclusivity is an ongoing intention.

It's hard for me to put into words the glowing review that Tessa deserves. From start to finish she was so attentive and receptive to our vision. We had multiple text, email, phone call exchanges and she was so patient with me as I was constantly changing my mind or adding something in the mix. She provided amazing input as well. I am so happy that I could send her my Pinterest board and screenshot of ideas and she just completely made it come to life. Her expertise made our planning experience seamless, as we could completely trust in her talent and her vision. I almost cried when she brought in my bouquet as it was exactly as I imagined, and somehow even better. Everything from the dining table florals, to the bar set up, and the ceremony florals completely blew our already high expectations out of the water and the arrangements will always be a highlight of our day and photos. Something I also loved about Moonglow is that Tessa provides extra cuttings for things like the details photos, cake table, etc included, that you may not necessarily think of but because of her experience, she knows that these are needed. She even provided things like extra water vases for my bouquet and the bridesmaid's bouquets to incorporate into the reception space. Not only is Tessa extremely talented, she is so wonderful to work with and so kind. She really is a one stop shop as the creator of the florals as well as the person doing the set up, this was so incredible as it's her vision coming to life from start to finish. Her responsiveness and professionalism throughout this process was 10/10 as well. We couldn't be happier and we still get compliments on our wedding florals! THANK YOU Moonglow Floral!!

I had four (yes, four!) bridal makeup trials and I’m so grateful to have found Taylor! I was looking for a natural makeup look but it seemed impossible to find. The other trials left me with cakey foundation that actually made my skin texture look worse than it normally does without makeup. Taylor suggested that I look up celebrity reference photos as opposed to your typical bridal Pinterest pics. This was a game changer — great advice! Taylor paid close attention to my skin tone, skin type, and bone structure to help accentuate my features. She was so kind, professional, on time, and made the experience so effortless for my bridal party and I. I felt so beautiful thanks to Taylor. I wish I could have her do my makeup every day!

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.

We booked Monica for month-of coordination, and she immediately acted like a true partner. She offered clear advice, scheduled check-ins, and tracked our progress so there were no surprises. When the weekend arrived, she took over smoothly and made everything easy. She managed setup, coordinated every vendor, kept the timeline tight, solved problems quietly, and oversaw teardown. On Sunday morning our items were already condensed, labeled, and staged by the exit, so pickup took minutes. Beyond all the compliments on the wedding, we heard constant praise for Monica herself. She is organized, calm, and relentlessly helpful. We could not recommend her more.

Hello there! I'm Patrick, a professional wedding officiant based in Paso Robles, California...Our little drinking town, with a farming problem...but I do travel! I take absolute delight in helping make your wedding ceremony just as you envisioned it. After all, it's your special day! In addition to working as an officiant, I'm also the owner of a distillery in Paso Robles, a voice-over specialist, and I have a multiple-subject teaching credential. That's right, the booze making officiant!

Patrick is amazing! He made everything so enjoyable and easy. He definitely kept things fun but still professional, both in first meeting him and on the day of the ceremony/during the ceremony. It was all super detailed to us as a couple. He's a really good dude inside and out. Very respectful too. We love this guy!

Hello! My name is Shane Espy and my mission is deliver timeless memories for you to have for your entire marriage! I aim to capture "documentary/storytelling" styled imagery to let you remember your day for what it really was. I am intentionally involved with my client's wedding experience, making your day/planning as seamless as possible! A bit more about me: I consider myself quite an extrovert! I love adding life to the party. So, if you want a fly on the wall, I ain't your guy! I aim to please and make your wedding guests feel like I am just another family member/friend.

From the moment we reached out, Shane was consistently kind, knowledgeable, and communicative. His attention to detail and stunning, exceptional photography captured all the special moments of our engagement photos. Shane was able to fit us into his schedule on short notice and really took the time to understand what we wanted. His warm presence and charisma helped put us at ease in front of the camera. You can tell Shane is a genuinely good person who could work seamlessly with any couple. If you're looking for one of the best wedding photographers in the business, Shane's your guy.
