Faye Fern Creative 

5.0

  • Offers 6 services
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Santa Barbara, CA

Faye Fern Creative is a luxury Design + Planning house based in LA and NYC. We are experience curators who specialize in high touch, understated and effortlessly distinctive weddings. With more than 40 years of collective industry experience between us, we have earned a reputation for architecting extraordinary events built upon a foundation of bespoke service. We focus on quality over quantity, taking on only a select number of mutually aligned clients each year. This allows us to protect our creative integrity, and deliver the caliber of design and production our couples truly deserve.

Hands down, Faye Fern Creative was our favorite wedding vendor. We could not have trusted our day to a more talented, caring, experienced, and fully dedicated team. During our consultation call, I mentioned a mutual Instagram friend connection and discovered that Natalie had coincidentally planned a stylish film industry event for them in New York almost a decade ago and also the wedding of one of their friends. My friend had nothing but fabulous things to say. The way she described what it was like to work with Natalie made me know instantly that we HAD to book her. My husband and I found it very easy to trust the Faye Fern design and planning team throughout everything. Natalie rescued us from making several bad decisions with her sage advice and I am not embarrassed to admit that things could have turned out quite disastrous for us if we had been left to plan our own wedding without her expertise. She also literally saved us hundreds of hours and prevented me from having to go down an endless research blackhole because she introduced us to the best vendors for our vision and managed EVERYTHING. Anyone who has ever had a wedding probably knows how easy it is to get overwhelmed by the number of vendor choices and social media horror stories of bad vendor experiences. We were grateful to have Natalie’s guidance and knew that she was only booking us vendors who were trustworthy and fit our aesthetic. At the start, Natalie told us that she customizes the experience to the couple. She took a lot of care to learn our communication style and how involved we wanted to be in planning. We chose to let her take the reins and just present us options to make major decisions on. She was very respectful of our vision and even made wonderful design suggestions that improved it. Natalie also preferred to get everything locked down sooner rather than later, kept us on track with deadlines, and is so organized and well prepared. This allowed us to spend the final month before our wedding in an unexpected state of relaxation and she encouraged us to turn our focus to self-care since almost all the work had already been done. SO, SO different from our siblings and friends who spent their own final month before their weddings still stressing about timelines, seating and floor plans, and all kinds of last minute tasks. We were grateful to have avoided that because it allowed us to arrive at our wedding feeling well rested, calm, and 100 percent confident that we were about to have the best weekend of our lives. It should also be said that Natalie’s design genius is nothing short of inspiring. She came up with our perfect color palette and wedding design even though most of the inspiration photos I sent her were of travel, fashion, interiors and graphic design that I liked. I told her that I didn’t have much saved in terms of wedding photos and she just said “No problem, I absolutely love that. We don’t want your wedding to look exactly like someone else’s anyway!” and went right to work, coming up with such a gorgeous design that fit who we are. We could not recommend Faye Fern Creative any more highly. If you are looking for a designer or planning team who will exceed every expectation and feel like supportive lifelong friends, this is it. We are so, so, so very happy!

It is so hard to put into words what Natalie and her team at Surraya Events meant to us. She created the best day of our lives flawlessly and we will always be grateful to her! From the second we first spoke we knew she was incredibly attentive to detail. 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! She went above and beyond our contract to complete the wedding day vision. Her ability to coordinate vendors is next level; she is so talented at quickly getting answers to people that need one. 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!!

Hi! I am Clemence the face behind The Perfect Pair Wedding :) I am born & raised in France, in the city of love Paris. During college I got the chance to do a semester abroad in San Diego, and met this really special, handsome, American guy... You see it coming? YES! After 3 years of long distance relationship, I finally married the love of my life. A little bit about The Perfect Pair Wedding... it is a San Diego based Wedding planning company, we plan & design weddings all over Southern California to bring to life our Perfect Pair's dreams.

Awarded Best of Zola
Clemence helped us navigate coordinating our wedding from day 1 and truly lifted so much of the stress of planning off of ourselves. She was very easy to communicate with and always made herself available for questions or talking through certain aspects of planning the day. She took control of communication with our vendors several months in advance and was extremely organized. Her expertise with wedding planning & coordination made us feel very confident going into our big day. Clemence and her team made our actual wedding day and absolute breeze – my husband and I both felt like every aspect was under control and no one was left wondering where they needed to be next, and it was such a relief to not have to handle those details ourselves. We never had to worry about anything going wrong because Clemence had everything under control at all times. Her team was such a pleasure to work with, I highly recommend using them for your special day!

Awarded Best of Zola
My biggest regret is I wish I selected Korina's Planning and Design package! For your sanity, planning a whole wedding is stressful on your own and you will need some help. I selected her Wedding Management package at the time and turn of the events, I found out I was having a bundle of joy on the way and was too exhausted to plan with only two months away from the wedding date. Not sure how I did it at all, but Korina helped me get through it and she is always so professional. I don't know how in the world I would have done it without her! Korina and her team, Giselle and Ashley, goes above and beyond for you. Yes you! During the pre-wedding months, she will communicate with all your vendors for you and create a wedding timeline so everyone knows what time, when, and where to meet. This will save you so much time and my advice is not to do this on your own. You will have so many other things to worry about. The day of your wedding, they will help setup your table design working alongside your florist and venue staff. It was perfection. They pay attention to detail and knew exactly what I wanted. My wedding was perfect all because of them. The only thing you have to worry about is getting ready and taking your gorgeous photos. At the end of the night, they will also pack everything for you and drop it off your hotel room so all you have to do is just head to your wedding after party. Quality of service is amazing and worth every penny. Korina is so kind, sweet, and personable too. All of my vendors loved working with her as did I. My wedding went smoothly because of her and I was able to enjoy celebrating my wedding day. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Korina, Giselle, and Ashley.

Michelle made the whole wedding planning process so easy and our wedding turned out absolutely AMAZING. We really couldn't have imagined it without her. I think it's safe to say that her and the Somni Events team brought our vision to life and more! From picking the venue, selection of vendors, design process, day of coordination, to checking in consistently throughout the past 1.5 years, Michelle was truly a DREAM to work with. We really cannot thank her enough for everything. She genuinely took the time to understand our vision, making sure that every single detail was addressed. More than anything, she's been so kind, patient, thoughtful, & incredibly generous with her time from start to finish. Truly every single guest at the wedding and our family members told us numerous times how beautiful the wedding was, and how well thought out every single detail was. We loved all of our vendors.. truly, we were obsessed with all of them!! Of course, we thanked them as well, but we also wanted to give Michelle & team credit in helping us discover vendors that were the perfect fit for us. As we reflected back on the day and looked through the photos & videos, we couldn't stop smiling because of how perfect the day went! We especially appreciate how the team took care of all the little things, allowing us to truly live in the moment and soak in everything as it was happening.

We would love to be a part of your day and ensure you have the wedding of your dreams! Please take a moment to fill out the form so we can learn more about you and your partner for life!!! ​

I first heard about Abibi Bridal when I was assisting my best friend CakedbyMel assemble a wedding cake in New Hampshire in September 2023. Mind you, I was visiting my best friend in Boston for the weekend because it was her birthday. I live in New York, so I took a flight to Boston to spend time with her. My friend was hired to construct the wedding cake by Abibi Bridal because Abibi Bridal was booked as the wedding planner for the wedding. I was observing how Abbe was working with the vendors and the wedding party, and I was instantly impressed. I walked up to Abbe and told her; I am getting married next year, and I am going to book you to plan my wedding. Abbe said of course! I set up my consultation with Abbe and I booked her for her wedding coordination services immediately. I just knew Abbe and her team would execute. From when I booked Abibi Bridal at the beginning of October 2023, up until the day of the wedding, April 25, 2024, Abbe has been a blessing when it came to planning my wedding. Even though she was booked for wedding coordination, Abbe was so helpful, knowledgeable, patient, kind, and just overall amazing throughout the entire process. She knew exactly what vendors would work great with the vision I had. Abbe knows all the best vendors and has great relationships with so many amazing vendors, that you know the vendors will execute not only because they are dedicated to their craft, because of their relationship with Abbe and Abibi Bridal. Now let’s fast forward to the day before the wedding, Abbe and her team came down from Boston, and from the moment Abbe and her team arrived until the end of the wedding the following day, Abbe and her team were all hands on deck! When I say the level of professionalism Abbe and her team had is unmatched compared to other wedding planning teams I heard about. She was a shield from all the stress, questions, unsolicited advice, and energy that was heading my way. Words honestly cannot describe what Abbe and her team did for my wedding. She made everything so seamless and special. My advice to every upcoming bride is to book a wedding planner or wedding coordination because it will make the wedding planning process go so smoothly. I strongly recommend booking Abibi Bridal because everyone deserves a piece of mind when it comes to wedding planning, and that is what you will get when you book with them. I do not only consider Abbe as my wedding planner, I consider her my friend and family because what she did for me and my wedding, I will never forget. Those memories will forever be cherished.

With a variety of offerings to choose from, we're sure you'll be happy working with us.

We are forever grateful for AnnaMarie of AR Weddings N Events. She is both our hero and our angel. Our daughter and her now husband (both developmentally delayed) had a special dream—they wanted a Disney Frozen fairytale wedding. I called AR Weddings N Events one evening around 8:30 PM and AnnaMarie answered – first try! From this first call, I knew in my heart that I found the most amazing wedding coordinator. AnnaMarie is responsive, punctual, resourceful, flexible, kind, and compassionate. And of great importance, she is calm and creates calmness around her. I was clueless in terms of what is needed for a seamless and successful wedding, and AnnaMarie proceeded to explain all of the moving pieces in a wedding puzzle. Her vendors are amazing too — DJ, flowers, photography, videography, and “Date Of”coordinators—all extremely professional, kind, and caring. AnnaMarie helped with every imaginable detail: color coordination, decor, rentals, dinner service, balloons, photo backdrop, and more. She helped us with a wedding timeline that made sense and kept the guests happy and entertained. She also helped with cleanup and made sure we got our full venue deposit back. On the day of the wedding, any time I thought of something and instinctively started to do it (I’m a mother!!), one of her coordinators would swiftly intercept me and say, “I’ve got this,” and send me back to enjoy our guests. She and her team took care of EVERYTHING—all with smiles, compassion, and warmth. The wedding was magical and beautiful—so many guests said they were in AWE and that our wedding was one of the best (if not THE BEST) wedding they’ve ever attended. Thank you AnnaMarie and the entire AR Weddings N Events family for making our very special daughter’s Disney Frozen dream wedding come true—down to the last snowflake! We love you!

Hey there! My name is Tiffany Wiere, the owner and lead planner of Wiere Weddings! I was born and raised in Australia, and moved to the USA 7 years ago to be with my husband. I am a hopeless romantic - hence moving halfway across the world for the man I adore 💗 I studied hospitality management at the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa, and have been working as an events and catering manager ever since. My love for events, and especially weddings, is my passion. I love hearing each couples love story and how I can make their wedding day a reflection of them!

Tiffany was our Month of Wedding Coordinator, and she did an amazing job! She was able to easily pickup where we left off in wedding planning. She provided us with a wedding checklist and vendor recommendations which was super helpful. It was a pretty smooth transition once the month before the wedding began. One thing that really gave us peace of mind was that she worked on creating multiple backup plans for us in case it rained on the day of our wedding. On the actual day of the wedding, we didn’t have to do or think about anything. Tiffany made sure our venue and ceremony site were set up exactly how we wanted it, and made the day flow pretty much seamlessly. Her process during the month of is also great because she helped us create the timeline of the day, made a personal decor list, and helped us solidify plans with our vendors so everyone was on the same page. We couldn’t thank Tiffany enough for helping make our wedding perfect!

I had a very unique style wedding and most of it I tried to do DIY. In a nutshell, it became extremely overwhelming for me, so I asked my planner Rebecca to assist. Her and the owner were so kind enough to make my original package of Day of Planning, to Full planning at a discount! Saved my whole wedding day. I cried a few days before my wedding because remembering all the months prior, they were there for me every step of the way. And on the day, everyone kept asking me, Is your planner a friend of yours? I honestly told them, 100% yes. :) Because I feel like we now are friends. Such a family orientated company. I highly recommend.

Cannot say enough good things about Juliette; we would have been absolutely lost without her leading up to and on our wedding day. She expertly coordinated with all our vendors to make sure our day flowed seamlessly. She effortlessly anticipated and solved every problem that popped up throughout our day and we were none the wiser that anything was amiss. She is the absolute sweetest and the hardest worker. Planning/coordinating with her felt like talking to an old friend. It was so apparent how much she cared about us as a couple and she did everything in her power to make our day perfect. If we ever plan a vow renewal, we will be calling our girl Juliette to help. You don’t want to miss out on the opportunity to work with Juliette and have the best, most stress-free event!

We are from out of state and had no knowledge of what vendors to use. Candice was extremely helpful with providing us with multiple options and making sure each vendor was on top of everything. We would recommend her to anyone looking to have a California wedding, but we would especially recommend her for those who are out of state or not familiar with the area.

Working with Bliss Wedding Planners was one of the most important decisions we made when we were planning our wedding. Looking back at the way our wedding unfolded day to day, we realized that Sehar and her team were a very big reason why everything flowed so seamlessly. From making sure vendors were on time and communicating well with each other while also prioritizing us and our requests and vision, Bliss Wedding Planners really did it all! We got married in May of 2022 in Houston and started planning with Sehar in Jan of 2021, knowing we were going to be in line with many who had put their weddings on hold during the pandemic. Sehar always made us feel important as her clients all while we were still traveling for work from California to New York, answered our questions in a timely manner, and met with us in person to discuss the details as the wedding got closer and closer. She even met with our family members so we could discuss timelines and any concerns for the week of the wedding so everyone could feel involved and know what to expect! Her team makes an incredible effort to make sure your wedding looks and feels effortless... and we couldn't be more grateful! A wedding needs a wedding coordinator and we were very pleased with how Bliss Wedding Planners brought our wedding vision to life!

Genevieve was the wedding planner of our dreams!

She totally understood the feeling and aesthetic we were going for, was organized to a T, came up with the sweetest details we never would have thought of, and was a stellar communicator. I didn’t think I’d be someone who would say this, but our wedding day was the best day of our lives, and Genevieve's art of wedding planning made it so.
