Working with Erika O'Brien Events as our wedding planner was an absolute pleasure. From the very beginning, Erika's communication style was laid-back yet professional, and she demonstrated an incredibly organized approach to planning our special day. Her attention to detail was excellent, and she executed flawlessly without any ego, working tirelessly before, during, and after our wedding to ensure everything ran smoothly. Although we hired Erika for month-of coordination, for the 9 months leading up to the wedding she was in doing checkins and helping us as needed. She helped wrangle vendors, create a detailed schedule, and handle all the little details so we didn't have to worry about a thing. Erika's expertise and calming presence were invaluable, and we highly recommend her services to any couple planning their wedding.

Isabel and TYR were simply the best! We may have been communicating on email, pinterest boards, instagram reels, and text - all at once! And yet somehow it was always cohesive, nothing was ever missed! Isabel has a sound aesthetic for South Asian Weddings, and she understood our unique needs for the pre-wedding Mehendi and Haldi events, and the rituals and traditions for our big day! Communicating with all the vendors, the suggestions for apps, and making our design vision come alive! TYR was part of the family by the end of our wedding week, even our dog would agree!!

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.

Nick and I can’t express enough all the hard Work she has done in the last 2 years. I literally was walking in the dark when it came to wedding planning but Brittany made every part of the journey as fun as possible. I’ll never forget reading her page and I just knew she was the one I needed by my side on the big day. I was already being pulled 1000 different places on the big day and I couldn’t imagine how much busier I would be if she weren’t there. I enjoyed every second and she has always gone above and beyond what was expected from her and I will always be grateful for that. You’re the best at what you do and any bride would be lucky to have you by their side on the big day. We love you! Thank you so much for everything ! Love nick and Jess Jess and Nick

We highly recommend Jennifer Fox for wedding planning services. As a bride, I was able to enjoy a stress-free experience thanks to Jennifer's excellent communication and coordination skills. She was responsive, organized, and ensured that every detail was handled professionally. Jennifer took care of running the entire wedding show so that my husband and I could relax and soak in every special moment. From vendor contracts to decor set-up to keeping the event on schedule, Jennifer handled it all seamlessly. Her services were well worth the value. The only thing I had to worry about as the bride was getting all the necessary information to Jennifer, and she took it from there. Jennifer is a consummate professional and we're so appreciative that she helped our wedding vision come to life perfectly.

Awarded Best of Zola
As a fellow event professional in Las Vegas & California, it's always great to see a new crop of young & talented vendors make their way into the industry. With Taylor & TayCheney Events, she brings a certain energy that I believe connects more with the bride & grooms of today. She has a pulse on pop culture, event trends, and connects with couples & vendors alike in a way that "she just gets it." As someone to collaborate on events with, she was attentive to some our quirks as a DJ & MC, and always made sure to follow-up / check-in with us on timelines in case some deets may have slipped by (hey, DJs have weird schedules lol) We've worked in multiple cities, and alongside my roster of DJs, and Taylor just continues to crush it. TayCheney Events is an amazing planner and I can't wait to see (and be a part of) her future productions. Would recommend her to any couple / client ten times over!

It’s difficult for me to fully articulate how extraordinary a wedding planner Sandra is. We threw every difficulty her way - a shortened timeline; a busy couple that had no time to devote to planning; wanting things a certain way and constantly changed our mind; and a budget to keep. Sandra dealt with it all with empathy, creativity, skill, and a preparedness that allowed her to roll with the punches.

Congratulations! You’re making the leap! If you’re here, it’s because you’re ready to tie the (k)not. So exciting -and nerve-wracking, too! If you’re going to pop the question, it has to go RIGHT. The only surprise should be the one that makes your future spouse scream YES! And a cookie-cutter proposal just won’t do. After all, no two love affairs are alike - and proposals shouldn’t be either. If you’re planning a wedding, you know it’s not the kind of event you should entrust to just anyone. You might have a vision and just don’t know where to start. Or maybe you’re so excited you can’t think straight. Either way, you’re in the right place.

Working with Soul Agave few exceeded all expectations I had for a wedding coordinator! While I already planned to someone for day of coordination, my mom was the one really pushing for one to ensure everything ran smoothly the day of. Dominique and her team went way above and beyond that! I met Dom at SoHo63’s open house and knew it was meant to be. Charming, humorous, smart and put together, I knew we would click! She set expectations with the package I selected (which was extremely reasonable and included more than competitors). She gave me a timeframe for when our appts would begin and what I could work on leading up to them. Her day of toolkit was a lifesaver!! She kept everything organized and had amazing recommendations for all my ideas. Nothing was left in the unknown so I never felt anxious. The day of went off without a hitch, on time, and our guests still continue to compliment us on how amazing our wedding was! It could not have been done without Soul Agave. They truly are the best!

With Kaity Campbell Events, you will have a truly luxurious customer experience from the moment you sign your contract all the way up to your event day, and even beyond. We believe that every wedding should be a reflection of your unique love story, and we are here to ensure that every detail is perfectly tailored to your desires. Our passion for creating unforgettable experiences, combined with our industry expertise, allows us to curate a seamless and stress-free wedding day that exceeds your expectations. Being able to create an event that is truly yours, and has all the elements you care about, is why I started doing what I do.

Kaity did a great job, especially considering all the uncertainty of bad weather (my ceremony was outdoors) we had to all deal with. She always had an upbeat and positive attitude the whole time, which I know can be very difficult to do around my family. She definitely would just roll with all the punches to keep us on track. I was anxious the entire day, but Kaity reassured me that she had everything under control and I knew I could trust her. She even went out of her way to get me and my husband little care packages on the day of, with inspiring notes. The only hiccups I actually noticed was with announcements and speeches, because the volume and echo was not great, so people didn't know when things were actually happening, so I wish we could've told the DJ sooner to fix the issue. We had also wanted to have our dinners boxed up, because my husband and I were both too anxious and excited to really eat, so our food ended up being thrown away, plus we didn't receive the top tier of our wedding cake to save for the tradition thing (but my guess is because they served it all to the guests). Unfortunately, at the end of the night, we were super rushed to get everything out of the building, because of the time and the pouring rain- I was running around barefoot in my dress while my husband was passed out in the car, and I was one of the few trying to get everything packed and cleaned up. However, Kaity and her husband really helped us out by collecting all the left items and holding onto them for us until the next day. She kept in contact, since at least a month beforehand, to make sure we had everything in order and sent her all the vendor contacts , so she could be included with all the day-of plans. She really did go above and beyond to make sure I had the best day possible, and I really appreciated that from her. I would definitely hire her again.

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!

Wow. Where do we even begin? We could not have asked for a better Day of Coordinator. Brooke was everything we needed and more. At every turn, she was so in tune with the entire event. Any snag or potential bump in the road was immediately dealt with by Brooke flawlessly. She plays the role that anyone can only dream of at their weddings. She goes above and beyond and even helped with planning, organizing, setup, and cleanup. To be clear, the extra duties she did were NOT in her job description but she did them anyways because she wanted everything in our wedding to go perfectly. Specifically, she not only made sure all members of our wedding party and vendors stayed organized, timely, and on task but also made sure all of our guests were confortable and made sure their every need was met. She handed out flip flops we provided to guests when their feet were tired, she helped charge the father of the groom’s phone when the battery was low, and came the day before for our rehearsal so we all knew what to do and where to go. The best part was we didn’t need to ask for these things, she just knew how to help and took initiative. Multiple people at our wedding have commented that they’ve never seen a more smoothly ran wedding. Our parents even told us how kind and helpful she was to them throughout the wedding. Brooke has a true talent at her job. Do what you love and your work will speak for itself. Well it’s clear that Brooke loves what she does because she may have just been one of the best (if not the best) member of our wedding team. When we first talked with Brooke she reiterated that her goal was to make us feel like the bride and groom and she did exactly that. Brooke is professional, kind, helpful, and above all does her job flawlessly. We thank you Brooke, from the bottom of our hearts.
