Sara Elizabeth Events

  • Offers 6 services
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Carpinteria, CA

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 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!

Sara is the best! I would hire her again in a heart beat. She is so easy to communicate with and respond quickly and efficiently. She is so well-versed in her vendor knowledge and knows exactly how to make a successful event flow. Plus I just love how positive and friendly and easy she is to work with. She is the whole package!

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.

Without skipping a beat she would recall comments we made earlier in the conversation and circle back to answer any previous questions. She is a master communicator, incredible organizer, go-getter, and a truly sweet person. When choosing a wedding planner or coordinator it was most important to us that we receive value out of the cost. When I say Natalie blew us away I really mean it!

It's worth mentioning also that her team is incredibly kind and kept us calm during the day when she was busy setting up. Walking into our cocktail hour and reception was the most moving and emotional experience because of Natalie's dedication. Reflecting on our wedding is such a joy because of Natalie's hard work! She has a forever friend and fan in us and we can't wait to watch her continue to master this industry!!

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!

I’ve always been drawn to the coast. I grew up on Nantucket, a hardworking little island off the coast of cape cod, Massachusetts, and took a leap of faith when I moved across the country to Santa Barbara, California, for school. To say I fell in love with this place is an understatement. It’s here that I found my true calling as an event planner while working in restaurants and as a catering manager. I went on to work as director of events at a large winery, where I managed hundreds of events including weddings, corporate events, wine festivals and concerts. Eventually, I decided to start my own event planning company in 2008.

When you’re in the business of bringing people together, it never feels like work. Calmerin Designs and Events (CDE) is an event planning and coordinating company. We are a family-owned and operated business. CDE was born after many requests from friends and family to offer our love for hosting events to a service we can provide to others. The CDE squad has planned intimate affairs for 10 guests to more elaborate weddings for 500 guests.

Awarded Best of Zola
When we were looking for a day-of coordinator, I immediately thought of a friend who worked in wedding planning. It was a while since we were in touch but despite no longer working at Calmerin anymore (decided to go on a different career path), she highly recommended booking them and working with Glennie, the owner. Glennie was so communicative throughout the whole process. She explained what was included in the different package levels, which is especially helpful to understand if you’re just starting the wedding planning process. I let her know that I would only need a day-of coordinator since I was already pretty far along in the process having booked multiple vendors already on my own. Glennie and her team were AMAZING. Understood the assignment. They provided detailed instructions and spreadsheets to help better understand your vision and start compiling all the information together to make sure your big day goes smoothly. Drew was assigned to be the on-site coordinator and worked alongside Glennie. We also had a few other coordinators join us if Glennie wasn't available (she's physically based in SoCal but has a steady team based in NorCal). All were absolute sweethearts! Asked all the right questions during the venue walkthrough and made sure to follow up with you and your vendors in a timely manner. Made rehearsal a breeze when none of us knew what we were doing. Took all my DIY décor and placed them better than I could ever imagine. My family members told me after the wedding how they really enjoyed having Drew and Glennie around to help them be at the right place at the right time and how they were helpful throughout the whole day. If I ever had a question or needed anything throughout the entire process, especially during the day-of, they were there for me. They had an emergency kit ready to go (which really helped when we had a lapse of planning for our video game station where we needed a flat screen to project on). They made sure we were taken care of, fed and hydrated, and ready to go. We had SUCH a blast enjoying our day without needing to worry about the little details or our guests. At the end of the night, they made sure to have everything that we wanted back packed up and ready to go. I honestly recommend Calmerin Designs and Events if you're looking for a planner and/or coordinator!

Wow! What can we say about Brandi? Literally everything, because she was that amazing! We came all the way from South Carolina without seeing anything in person, and we put our full trust into Brandi and her team. They FULLY delivered. On our wedding day, countless guests approached us to praise her professionalism, kindness, efficiency, and quick thinking. And that was just the wedding day! We experienced her exceptional service every step of the way. Brandi always took the time to truly understand my husband and me. She fought battles for us that we didn’t even know existed! Reaching the month of the wedding without feeling stressed was something I never thought possible, but it was truly magical. On the day of the wedding, I was dancing, singing, and basking in the excitement of marrying my husband because Brandi took care of EVERYTHING! She even gave my Maid of Honor a walkie-talkie to ensure clear and concise communication. To any future Mr. & Mrs. who don’t know where to turn, Brandi is your go-to! We are so blessed to have had her as our wedding planner and are filled with immense gratitude for her!
