We can't say enough good things about Rose Event Company! Planning a wedding is never easy, but doing it in just 4 months, from across the country, and in a remote area with limited vendors seemed impossible—until we found Ashley. She took our vision of an intimate elopement with our closest family and friends, and turned it into the weekend of our dreams, managing every detail with perfection and making the entire process stress-free. From the moment we first spoke, I knew that Ashley was everything I was looking for. She is professional, organized, and full of creative ideas. Despite the challenges of our location, she found the perfect vendors to bring our vision to life. She understood our style and preferences right away and worked tirelessly to ensure everything was just as we envisioned. Even with the distance, Ashley was always available, responsive, and kept us updated every step of the way. She organized all the activities for our wedding weekend, including putting together our guest welcome bags. The entire weekend was a like a dream. Every single detail was meticulously executed, and we received so many compliments from our guests about how beautiful and seamless everything was. We truly couldn't have asked for a better experience. If you're looking for someone who is not only incredibly talented but also kind, patient, and genuinely invested in making your day perfect, look no further than Ashley. She made what could have been a stressful and overwhelming process into something fun and memorable. Thank you, Ashley for making our dream wedding a reality!

Andrina and her team at Confetti and Cocktails are the greatest wedding planners ever ever ever. We wanted an intimate wedding and I was worried that a planner would not be as invested as they would for a larger wedding - that could not have father from the truth. From the initial call, all the way through the wedding day and beyond, she has been our designer, therapist, and dream maker. Her professionalism, quick response times to my million questions, and advice on all things wedding related were so helpful during the planning process. She knows the best venues and has great relationships with vendors near and far. The design creation was so fun. She sent a personalized mood board of things we had discussed on the phone and I got to go through and choose the ideas that spoke to me. Then we got to meet at the showroom and put all the pieces together. The day of, Andrina came prepared with EVERYTHING you could possibly ever need. She managed all the vendors and helped everyone stick to the timeline. All I had to do the day of was enjoy getting married. Everything went so smoothly and the day was exactly what we had hoped and planned for. I literally cannot put into words just how wonderful of a person Andrina is and how talented she is. You can tell it is not just her job, but also her passion. If you are looking for a planner, I recommend her a million times over.

Our wedding planning business was born out of a love for all things dreamy and romantic. We understand that every detail matters when it comes to planning your wedding. That's why we're committed to paying close attention to the small things, while keeping the big picture in mind. Our hope for all of our clients is for them to feel the love and care we've put into building oso events. Your special day matters to us, and we always want to go above and beyond to make it exactly what you envisioned. Our goal is to ensure that you feel comfortable every step of the way to make informed decisions and to make the process as stress-free as possible.

Awarded Best of Zola
We first learned about Oso Events in the summer of 2022 while remotely planning our California wedding from the East Coast. From the very first introductory call, they blew us away with their professionalism, punctuality, warmth, organization, and excellence. Without them, our wedding would not have been nearly as amazing as it was! They found us fantastic vendors in the Bay Area like the food, HMUA, DJ, and server staffing company, organized our wedding day schedule, held regular video calls with us, got quotes from vendors, kept track of our budget and payment schedule with weekly updates, arranged set-up of the ceremony and reception venue, made sure our vendors got day-of tips, and more! The only thing that could be improved is that there was a specific deadline for event liability insurance that I and the planning team all missed initially. No harm was done though! The mistake was caught in time before it affected the event, and all went well! Michelle and Raymundo excellently identified what our energy levels as a newlywed couple would be like in the week leading up to the big event, and the day of the actual wedding. Raymundo directed our impromptu ceremony rehearsal, helping our officiant and party mark their places and signaling where/when we should stand and walk. Michelle checked in with the bride and the groom consistently throughout the night of the reception, asking if we needed water, food, or other drinks since we were often distracted by the festivities. They maintained effective communication leading up to and on the day of the wedding. Their decorations at the ceremony and reception were absolutely gorgeous and exactly what we wanted. At the end of the night, they managed takedown, and made sure all of the personal decorative items and remembrance photos we brought were conveniently all in the same box for us to take home. Through the yearlong process of planning, they dealt with last-minute logistical changes with incredible poise, and truly grounded us, allowing us to enjoy the day with free minds. The team even accommodated two of our guests who tested positive for COVID last-minute by setting up a separate table for them in the outdoor venue. We couldn't recommend them more highly. Not to mention, their BobaHolics boba bar was a huge hit and the photo booth was a lot of fun. We got a lot of mileage out of the sustainable decor inventory, which prevented us from having tons of wedding stuff on hand that we'd accumulate and need to resell after. The entire range of services offered by Oso is incredibly helpful and will make any event an absolute hit. We have loved working with the team and we’re so grateful they decided to take us on as clients at the start of their wedding planning journey.

We worked with Yoko from Two Perfect Events, and her team was on top of it every step of the way. Yoko made sure to get to know us and took every step possible over the year we worked together to make sure that we were prepared for the big day. She was in touch with our vendors, and our families and made sure that everything ran as smoothly as possible. We never felt behind schedule or rushed because Yoko and team were so organized and on top of it. They really took care of us throughout the entire process. Something we appreciate is that they anticipated we'd need breaks during the day and scheduled those for us as well, they also made sure we were fed and hydrated throughout! Our families could not stop talking about how efficiently the entire day was managed. 11/10 want to plan another wedding just to hire them again.

After wrapping up our wedding, it became clear that it could never have happened without Savvy Weddings. I highly recommend Sandra and her team. When we were looking for help with wedding planning, we wanted a planner who could make our backyard wedding everything we imagined. Since we didn’t have a real “venue,” we had to bring in everything. This overwhelming task felt completely achievable with Sandra's help. Sandra is extremely hardworking and dedicated to making your day the most special and perfect event. Despite only having her partial services, Sandra met with us over ten times and drove to our venue site countless times to reassure us that everything would work out as we imagined. She even brought in extra team members for the complicated task of flipping our ceremony venue into a dinner reception. She attended our tastings with us and advocated on our behalf’s when we had decision fatigue with numerous vendors. Believe me when I say, we would never have been able to plan this event without Sandra’s help. Her expertise in helping us hand-pick every vendor, nail down a super complicated timeline, and ensure we didn’t get overwhelmed in the process was crucial to our Wedding. I have never worked with someone as great as her before! I couldn’t recommend her enough and am so thrilled with how my wedding turned out. We will miss working with Sandra so much!

Welcome and congratulations on your engagement! You’re here because you already have a good handle on the planning process and just need a calm, organized and fun person to ensure everything comes together seamlessly. That’s me! Hi, I’m Patricia. As a former Executive Assistant it was easy to transition to becoming a Wedding Coordinator. I traded managing CEOs and their schedules for managing couples and theirs! I’ve been in the wedding industry since 2006, starting with designing invitations and full planning to where I am now.

Honestly. Patricia was fabulous. As the Mother of the Bride, I watched her handle vendors, last minute surprises, and all of our guests with Grace and Professionalism. I never experienced any anxiety and knew that she had absolutely everything under control. My husband and I arrived before anyone else and watched as she seamlessly made sure that everything was done as planned. Her presence was barely noticeable except when needed and then she would almost magically appear anticipating the need. I am so impressed with her skills and I would wholeheartedly recommend her to my closest friends and family.

I specialize in creating unforgettable luxury elopements and destination weddings for couples who want their day to feel as special and unique as their love story. I've always been drawn to the beauty of weddings - the joy, the love, and the intimate moments shared between couples and their loved ones. There's nothing more rewarding to me than bringing a couples vision to life, and helping them enjoy stress-free, magical experience on their wedding day.

We hired Alexis with Vow Ventures to be our day of coordinator and she did an outstanding job! She came in a couple of months prior to tie up the loose ends and we ended up having an unforgettable day! Would highly recommend to any bride looking for a wedding planner or a day of coordinator!

Blue Sierra Events: it's a promise to transform your special day into a timeless and enchanting celebration. Diana, our owner, is the visionary behind Blue Sierra Events, and she truly is a lover of love. Her passion for turning dreams into reality and meticulous attention to detail set the foundation for a wedding planning service that goes beyond expectations. We believe every wedding is a personal journey, and our team is committed to making that journey seamless and joyous. From the initial consultation to the final toast, we collaborate closely with our clients to understand their vision, preferences, and dreams for the big day.

I've had the pleasure to work with Diana of Blue Sierra Events at three different Lake Tahoe weddings. Diana always works with a smile on her face, while getting the job done. She is a great planner that sets up her events on time and makes sure that everything is always running smoothly. The one big thing I love about working with Diana during a wedding day is that she doesn't micro manage the other wedding vendors that are working with her on a wedding day. This is a huge plus. She trust us vendors and lets us get our job done without telling us what to do. Diana also knows how to solve problems when they arise on your big day, which is one of the main reasons you hire a coordinator for your wedding day. I would highly recommend hiring Blue Sierra Events to plan and coordinate your wedding day.

Every day I plan, design, or execute events for corporations as well as social events. ​ My educational background is in hospitality and my focus is to provide exceptional customer service. I graduated with my bachelor’s in hospitality and Tourism Administration, a Master’s in Business Administration, and a Certified International Wedding and Event Planner.

Margaret and her team are a godsend! I would highly recommend booking with her! I booked her for month of/day of services and she & her team took great care of us. From coordinating with all of our vendors, to handling last minute snags, Margaret was a consummate professional with impeccable resourcefulness. Even though my husband and I do a lot of planning for our jobs, there is just so much that you don’t think of when you’re planning a wedding (& working on top of that). Margaret did a wonderful job at making sure she checked all of our boxes, and was always on top of all the tiny details that we hadn’t thought of. Everything went off without a hitch on the day of our wedding, and both her and her team’s presence made me feel 100% relaxed so that I was ready to walk down the aisle with confidence. If you are considering booking a coordinator for your big day, I highly recommend Events by Margaret, you will be stress free and not disappointed. Thank you for everything Margaret, we couldn’t have done it without you!!

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’s help and arranging at our wedding was invaluable . She’s very professional and still so easy to talk to about ideas, she was full of suggestions that helped make it a beautiful and really smooth day. When I had an idea she figured out how it could be implemented, when I felt a little bit lost she was ready with helpful suggestions that took a lot of the pressure off. Her arrangements were beautiful, the whole event went so smoothly and made it so that we could focus on the specialness of the day trusting that Monica had a constant pulse on the logistics and timing. We are incredibly grateful for her help. Highly recommend!

We had a few zoom meetings to go over details and she also went with me to my final walk through of our venue. Our wedding day was perfect. IF there was any type of issue, I didn't know about it because Shelley took care of everything. I would highly recommend her because of her skill, but also because of her kindness.
