Kari did an amazing job of planning and coordinating our wedding. From the very beginning, she was incredibly responsive, kind and always available to answer our questions and make suggestions about vendors and other details. We were planning from out of town, so having Kari was essential in our planning and I am certain it would have been a mess without her! She is well known and well respected within the wedding planning community in Paso and it was obvious that all of our vendors loved working with her. On our rainy wedding day, she and her team seamlessly moved our ceremony inside at the last minute and transformed the space into something truly gorgeous and magical with the beautiful winery vibes that we wanted while keeping everyone dry. They were then able to transform that same space for dinner. We didn't think it was possible for us and our families to have a relaxing day pre-wedding, especially with rain, but we truly did. Kari and her team took care of everything and kept everything on schedule with every detail attended to, and we didn't have to worry about anything. She also did our flowers which were gorgeous, reasonably priced and exactly what we had hoped for. Throughout the entire planning process and on our wedding day, Kari and her team brought great style and energy that helped make our special day truly unforgettable and better than we could have ever imagined. We are so grateful for their hard work, attention to detail and would not hesitate to put your full trust in her and her team to create the wedding of your dreams! It was quite honestly the BEST money we spent on our wedding.

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 then worked as an Event Coordinator for a private school in San Luis Obispo. 5 years later I decided to start my own company as a Special Event Planner and the rest is history!

Awarded Best of Zola
Tiffany is amazing! We selected her Day-Of Coordination package and it was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. We were married at the Madonna Inn with 140 guests. I was a very detail-oriented bride with a very specific vision for our event, and Tiffany made it all happen so seamlessly. Throughout the process Tiffany was there to offer support and ease any anxiety I had about the planning. On the day of the wedding, we didn’t have to worry about a single thing. She executed our vision flawlessly, and we were able to be fully present for the whole day. I would work with Tiffany for any event I plan in the future.

I am a lifetime Central Coast resident, born and raised in Templeton. I have spent most of my career in the hospitality industry. It wasn't until I started a job in catering management that I realized I had a passion for weddings. I continued doing catering management for 2 years, and then I started assisting all of my favorite wedding planners for 2 years. Most recently I landed a job in Venue Management and that is when I knew I wanted my own wedding planning business. In my free time I love to go hiking, lift weights and spend time with my family, including our 4 rescue pups. I look forward to meeting you!

Awarded Best of Zola
From the very beginning of this journey, Sara was so much more than a wedding coordinator. She was truly my rock. She held my hand through every step of the planning process, guided me through every decision, and gave the most thoughtful, perfect recommendations. What could have been overwhelming, she made feel calm, exciting, and so special. I always knew I had someone in my corner who genuinely cared about bringing our vision to life. Her communication, kindness, and support went so far beyond anything we could have ever expected. She didn’t just do her job. she showed up like a best friend, someone who was just as invested in our day as we were. On the day of our wedding, she knew exactly what I needed as a Type A bride. She let me be part of the moments that mattered most to me, while quietly and flawlessly handling everything else behind the scenes. If anything went wrong, I never knew because she made sure I didn’t have to. That kind of peace on your wedding day is something I will forever be grateful for. And despite the wind trying its best to challenge us, Sara never let it take away from our vision. She adapted, adjusted, and somehow made everything still feel absolutely perfect. She didn’t just execute our wedding she protected the feeling of it. She gave us more than a beautiful day,she gave us the ability to be fully present, to soak in every moment, and to truly live our dream wedding. There are honestly no words that feel big enough to thank her. We will carry so much gratitude for her forever. If you are even thinking about hiring Sara, do it. She is truly one of a kind.

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.

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 was so incredibly helpful and thoughtful in helping us curate a rooftop reception following our SF City Hall marriage. 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. We can’t thank Rose and her team enough for making our day feel special!

  • Serves Shandon, CA

As a food stylist, event planner, and business owner with over 20 years in hospitality and catering, I believe the smallest details hold the most meaning. I’m drawn to beauty in how a space feels, how colors and textures come together, and how every element flows effortlessly. When couples trust me with their celebration, I listen deeply and design with intention, care, and heart — so they can feel calm, present, and completely immersed in their day. Proud ally and safe space for the LGBTQ+ and BIPOC community. Best wishes and warmest regards, LouLou

I’ve worked with LouLou Events going on about ten times now, both personally (for friends and family gatherings), as well as professionally (we at Edible Magazine hire her for both her food styling, and event production). I'm not only in awe of her style and the aesthetic she brings to any event or setup; I also appreciate her work ethic and processes. She’s quick and efficient in her responses (a dream for my type-A personality), is dependable, and has an unmatched eye for design. Everything, I mean everything, she creates is beautiful. The events always feel special and thoughtfully done. They leave a lasting impression on guests -- it is exactly what I hope for. Over time I’ve relied on her for all kinds of needs, from production and food styling for various magazine shoots; event management for gatherings; tablescape design for a cookbook party; food setups for long shoot days. She’s someone I return to again and again because she is professional, kind, and delivers every single time. I would recommend her to anybody.

  • Serves Shandon, CA

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.

Planning a wedding for 190 people with multiple spread-out locations within the venue was no small feat, but Sarah handled it with grace and professionalism. She expertly coordinated every aspect of the event, ensuring that every detail was executed flawlessly. Sarah also planned our welcome party, which also included 190 guests, and turned a Lakeside Dock into a magnificent rodeo / hoe-down location that guests were talking about for days! The result was a wedding that was nothing short of luxury and gorgeousness, exceeding our wildest dreams. The decor, the floral arrangements, and the overall ambiance were simply breathtaking.

Planning a destination wedding in Cairo, Egypt came with its fair share of complexities. We had guests traveling from all over the world and were trying to blend three cultures - Lebanese, Egyptian, and American. In Egypt, most wedding planners focus only on décor and receptions, so I found myself struggling with the schedule and flow of logistics beyond that. There were so many moving parts - the ceremony, the bridal party, the reception - and I didn’t have a planner or a day-of coordinator to help me execute the day smoothly. Alex stepped in and became my anchor. She gathered every detail and built an hour-by-hour plan that carried us through the day, from getting ready to the end of the night. That included the procession of the church ceremony, the musical cues, the reception entrance order, the dj song list order, etc. She helped me create breakout schedules to give to each vendor so they all knew what part of the day mattered for them to take part in. Alex brought so much understanding and cultural awareness to our wedding. She respected the way that weddings are done in Egypt, Lebanon, and America, and helped me blend certain moments from each tradition into our wedding. Every special moment flowed. I truly couldn’t imagine how the day would have went without her. She gave me peace of mind, comfort, and support that made me feel extremely take care of on the most important day of my life.

Christina & Samantha are incredible coordinators. They were so helpful in the months leading up to the wedding and I knew I was in good hands the day of. My husband and I planned to have a small wedding on a smaller budget, but we are so happy we made the decision to book a coordinator! CC's Celebrations was honestly the best investment we made for our wedding. They helped with timelines, followed up with all our vendors, kept us on schedule with planning, and gave us so many invaluable tips for making our day go as smoothly as possible. From the first Zoom call to the venue walkthrough and rehearsal, both Christina & Samantha made us feel comfortable and taken care of. They kept our wedding party on schedule the day of and truly went above and beyond to make our day one that we could cherish forever. They truly brought our vision to life and I really don't think we could have pulled it off without them. Thank you, Christina, Samantha, and Gina!

Natalie & Daniel planned the most incredible Palm Springs wedding for us this past May! Everything was truly perfect. From their knowledge & expertise, incredible taste & vision, to their warmth and kindness, it was genuinely a fantastic experience working with them. When our original venue fell through due to extenuating circumstances from the owners of the venue, Natalie was quick with a ton of other options and we seamlessly pivoted which turned out to be an even better decision. Faye Fern completely elevated and exceeded our design vision for the wedding weekend, everything was so classy and elegant while still being fun and totally us. From my first call with Natalie when she spent an hour on the phone with us reassuring us we could make a California wedding work I knew she was going to put us at ease and make the planning process as seamless as possible. We couldn't have done it without them. Thank you so much Faye Fern!

Events by Angela Monique (with her team of 3) was our wedding planner, and we were pleased with their service. Their communication style summarized conversations, was direct, and inquisitive to vendors, primarily through email, and they were assertive in keeping us on track. The quality of their work was comprehensive, detailed, and particular. They did an excellent job setting up and tearing down all of the decorations, and their day-of coordination was flawless, though the pre-planning process was a bit stressful due to some misalignment between their vision and ours. Overall, Angela Monique was a brilliant day-of coordinator, flexible with travel fees, and provided us with a bonus video of the event photos.
