About Mg Event Design

Mg Event Design

Lead Planner/Designer

Marcea's experience comes to you decades in the making. Having grown up with a wedding coordinator mom, Marcea started coordinating weddings and receptions at a very young age. She went on to plan events with a prominent Seattle restaurant company, and has planned dinners and parties large and small for churches, non-profit organizations, schools, and small businesses, ranging in size from a small gathering to a crowd of 1,000. Her own Christmas parties are legendary, something she also learned from her mom. She brings the same passion to every event, every time.

We are three-generation planners! Marcea works most weddings with her daugher and occasionally her mom will still help out, too. We have decades of experience between us and understand family dynamics!

    When my wife and I were shopping around for a wedding planner, we spoke with a handful of folks who just didn’t seem quite right for us. Many were friendly and seemed plenty organized, but they lacked a certain quality that we couldn’t put our finger on. That all changed when we spoke with Marcea. From even our first conversation, Marcea’s assuredness and clear headed approach to our big day was clear. She brought a kind of confidence to our wedding discussion that was the missing link for those we spoke to beforehand. That confidence carried into our planning once we started working together, and it completely eliminated much of the doubt and worry we had about our big day. While much of the wedding planning process is joyful and exciting, there is a less-than-desirable side fueled by stress that can sour the experience. Marcea’s magic juju is taking that stress away, and she helped make our planning process as joyful as possible. When the big weekend came, Marcea’s professionalism shined. From orchestrating our rehearsal to seamlessly ushering vendors on site, Marcea did not miss a single logistical beat. And, as we prepared for our ceremony, she also brought an infectious sense of excitement and positivity that my wife, myself, and our wedding party greatly appreciated as nerves ran high. A particularly special moment that my wife and I greatly appreciated was when Marcea brought my wife and me a plate of hors d'oeuvres after our photos were finished. It may sound like a simple gesture, but the fact is Marcea kept our well-being and comfort top of mind, and we sincerely appreciated her effort to keep us fueled up on such an action packed night. I could go on and on about the countless ways Marcea went above and beyond to ensure our wedding was as enjoyable as possible, but a review has to end somewhere. With that said, I’ll end with this. Although there are many great wedding planners, working with Marcea felt like cheating our way to our perfect wedding. In our honest opinion, working with her is like a guarantee that you feel less stressed, more happiness, and can focus on the good stuff from beginning to end.

    We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding coordinator than Marcea Galindo! Her attention to detail was impeccable—every aspect of our wedding was thoughtfully planned, and nothing was overlooked. Marcea was incredibly responsive throughout the entire process, always available to answer our questions and provide guidance, often within minutes. What truly sets her apart is her dedication to going above and beyond her duties. Whether it was coordinating last-minute changes or handling unexpected challenges on the day of, Marcea's problem-solving skills were exceptional. She never let us stress and always found solutions that fit our vision. She also took the time to customize every element of our wedding to suit our personalities and preferences, ensuring that our special day felt uniquely ours. Marcea made our wedding dreams come true, and we couldn’t recommend her more highly!

    Marcea and Natalie were nothing short of amazing through the whole wedding process. The help they provided us was instrumental in the success of our wedding day. They checked in with us frequently and always made sure we had anything we could need. I couldn't say better things about them and will recommend them to anyone I know!! We will be forever grateful for their services.

    Marcea was so great to work with for my wedding. She is very detail oriented and made sure everything was perfect for my big day. We had several meetings leading up to my wedding where she made sure every detail was discussed, even things that I had otherwise not thought about. Day of, everything went so smoothly. I didn't have to worry about a thing. It seemed like she was always a step ahead, and when I did think about something, she had already been on top of it. I'm so grateful we decided to hire her! She is clearly very experienced in the wedding industry and I couldn't recommend her enough!
