“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.”

Sovereign K is a Los Angeles–based wedding planning and coordination studio, producing refined celebrations throughout Southern California and California's Central Coast. We love creating weddings where every detail is thoughtfully considered, allowing couples to be fully present and genuinely enjoy one of the most meaningful days of their lives. With over a decade of experience, I've learned that beautiful celebrations are about creating an experience that feels welcoming, effortless, and personal whether providing full-service planning or wedding day coordination, we offer custom levels of support.

“My husband and I recently celebrated a beautiful wedding ceremony and reception, and we owe so much of its success to Sovereign K. We were planning a fairly large wedding in less than three months, and after securing our venue and a few vendor recommendations, I quickly realized just how many moving parts there were to manage. Hiring Sovereign K was one of the best decisions we made. From the moment we brought them on, they immediately put us at ease. Kim took charge of vendor communication, created detailed ceremony and reception timelines, and kept us informed every step of the way while thoughtfully accommodating any changes we wanted to make. On the wedding day, Kim was absolutely incredible. She remained calm, organized, and adaptable throughout the entire event. When our photographer requested "just 20 more minutes" for additional photos, she seamlessly adjusted the timeline without missing a beat. Everything we had hoped for was accomplished, and we were able to fully enjoy our celebration without worrying about the details.”

Hi, I'm Mackenzie, owner and lead planner of Vow & Co. Weddings! I believe your wedding day should be spent making memories—not managing timelines. My passion is creating beautifully organized, stress-free celebrations that reflect each couple's unique love story. Whether you need full-service planning, partial planning, or wedding management, I'm here to guide you every step of the way with personalized support, thoughtful organization, and seamless execution. I can't wait to help bring your vision to life!

“From our first conversation with Vow & Co. Weddings, we knew we had found the right planner for our day. The team communicated quickly and kept everything organized from start to finish, which made the entire process stress-free. Our winery venue had tight setup windows, but she didn't just focus on her own team—she coordinated with all our vendors to make sure everyone stayed on schedule and nothing fell behind. With 250 guests, there were a lot of moving parts, yet every detail came together flawlessly on the day. Her hard work and eye for detail showed in every moment, and our wedding felt effortless because of her behind-the-scenes hustle. We can't recommend Vow & Co. Weddings enough.”

As a food stylist, event planner, and business owner with over 25 years in hospitality and events, 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

“Lou is incredible and I absolutely LOVED working with her. Having her coordinate my wedding was - hands down - the best decision I made about the whole process. Working in the event industry myself, I just couldn't wrap my head around my own wedding... thank goodness Lou was ready for everything! She set us up with great timelines, connected us with some awesome and affordable local vendors, and really came through making magic happen *both* behind-the-scenes and literally setting the scene. Vibes? Check! Hustle? Check! She flawlessly made my vision come to life. It was honestly such a relief working with her. I can get really anxious and overwhelmed, and she walked and talked me through every step at a pace that felt consistent and manageable... and when I slacked, she kicked my butt back into gear, which I needed 100% lol. She has such a respectable history coordinating events, she preempted things I never even considered. I highly recommend working with her!”

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.”

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.

Our hard work, loyalty, and professionalism shine through in every project we undertake. We believe in transparency and always strive for the perfect end result.

“When I finally reached out to Otilia at Sparkling Stars Events, I had been planning my wedding alone for about 7-8 months without a coordinator. Hiring this company was the best decision I ever made. I highly recommend not only hiring a coordinator but hiring Sparkling Stars specifically. Being the only person in my family to get married in over 15 years, it was daunting to plan. Although I planned some of my wedding, Otilia kept me on track with the finer details leading up to the day, comforted me when I was stressed and helped make our wedding the most magical day. Our venue, while beautiful, ended up being a lot more disorganized and chaotic than we were led to believe. Due to this, the night before the wedding and morning of we had to release full control and trust to Otilia because at that point there was nothing more that we could do to change what the venue had done. Our day surpassed our expectations. It was the most beautiful and Sparkling Stars really took control and calmed our worries. I never felt so seen in my vision and letting go of my stress felt so easy with Otilia. We had so many small details and DIYS that were exactly where we envisioned. Everything was so well executed. Aside from that, they felt like family. They were so sweet and kind throughout the wedding day we did not feel like we were putting on a production or being pulled left to right. They were also welcoming, sweet and polite to all guests and family. My biggest regret during this entire bridal era was not hiring Otilia from the very start of my planning. We love you guys and are definitely hiring for our vow renewal!! 3”

“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.”

One of Ashley’s greatest strengths is her ability to handle every aspect of the event with grace and calmness. Whether it was coordinating with vendors, managing last-minute adjustments, or making sure every guest felt welcome, she made it all look effortless. Her dedication and passion for her work truly shine through. Anne and Michael’s wedding was nothing short of magical, and so much of that is thanks to Ashley’s expertise. If you’re looking for a wedding planner who will go above and beyond to make your day extraordinary, Ashley from Rose Events is the one to call. We highly recommend her and look forward to seeing her bring more dreams to life!”

“While planning my daughter’s wedding, I knew I needed a Day-of Coordinator to assist with the final weeks and the day of the wedding. I thank my lucky stars for asking Courtney Stammler of Enchanted Events to be my wedding coordinator. From the moment I hired her, I felt completely confident in her organizational skills, her professionalism, and her creativity. Courtney and her team were truly the dream team. She suggested ideas that I wouldn’t have thought of on my own. She followed up on every detail with the vendors, the venue, and the church. She and her team also helped me with the rehearsal dinner/family reunion which went so smoothly and gave me time to be with family members who came from all over the world. Courtney and her team at Enchanted Events offered me the help and guidance that I exactly needed. I could not have asked for a better wedding coordinator than Courtney Stammler who made sure the day of the wedding went smoothly. As the mother of the bride, I did not have to worry about anything on the day of the wedding. Thank you Courtney for everything you and your team did for our daughter’s wedding: it couldn’t have been better! Barbara J.”

“If I had one piece of advice for every bride getting married at the Madonna Inn, it would be to hire Krissy. Her and her team were able to expertly execute my day and we’re outstanding partners throughout the entire planning process. They helped me get tire grease out of my dress, they made sure that my fiancé showed up to the ceremony on time, and they expertly handled multiple family members in our processional. They are able to make outstanding recommendations for any and all vendors that you’re looking for, and they even do their own floral arranging if that’s something you’re interested in.

“From the moment we first met with AnnaMarie and the team at AR Weddings N Events, we knew we were in good hands. Their communication style was attentive, positive, and enthusiastic throughout the entire planning process. The attention-to-detail, big picture perspective, and warm approach they brought to executing our vision was truly impressive. AnnaMarie executed our vision for the table settings and flowers perfectly while I was away getting ready, and they were around monitoring the entire wedding to make sure it was perfect and we didn't hear of any problems. As very organized and anxious planners, we appreciated that AnnaMarie checked in with us bi-weekly to ensure everything was on track. They truly brought our dream wedding to light.”
