We had Brooke S. in Phoenix as our coordinator and we are floored with how she transformed our ideas into real life. She was incredible, so on top of each vendor communication and weekly meetings. She went above and beyond what we imagined and we couldn’t have done half of it without her expertise. The most professional person that could have organized our wedding day. Thank you so much. She also had Tatum, a day-of junior coordinator who worked so well alongside her to make it all happen. This duo was the absolute best and I recommend anyone in Phoenix to snag these two if they have the chance.

My husband and I cannot recommend Haylie enough. Seriously – if you are getting married, do yourself a favor and book her. She made the entire wedding planning process so smooth and enjoyable. We were really able to enjoy our engagement because of her guidance and support – and that's a gift we will always treasure. Our wedding day was more beautiful than we ever could have imagined. Again, because everything had been planned so thoughtfully and meticulously, we were able to truly live every minute of the best day of our lives. We will always be so so grateful to her and will recommend her to every couple who gets engaged – and maybe even just random strangers on the street!

The Joyfully Co team made wedding planning a breeze! I knew I needed a full package planner because the idea of planning a wedding was extremely daunting. Joyfully helped me build the dream team of vendors to create my fairytale wedding day. My loved ones all said they had never seen such a stress free bride. Joyfully was very responsive when I had questions throughout the process. They provided budgeting tools to help us stay on track. They provided wedding design services in the easiest way. On the day of the wedding, Blaire had every detail mastered so that I did not have to worry about a single thing.

If you haven't hired Connie to coordinate your wedding day you're missing out! She and her assistant were amazing. Our day went off without a hitch. Even when I didn't know I needed something, Connie knew and was there to help. It was HOT all day but you would have never known the way both gals zipped around our venue to set up and keep the day going and managed to have smiles on their faces. Thank you so much for being a part of making our dream wedding come true.

Lindsay not only plans weddings for our Simply Elegant couples but also trains our entire team of planners to ensure that every Simply Elegant wedding is flawless and our client's vision is fulfilled.

Awarded Best of Zola
Simply Elegant Group was by far my favorite vendor! Every single person we talked to from Lindsay Mackey, their amazing manger and our first contact to the hotel-block assistant was a joy to work with, communicative and helpful. The workbook, spreadsheets, and connections with other coordinators and vendors made the whole wedding planning process more enjoyable and streamlined. We chose the Day of Coordination and are very grateful to have had Hanh as our wedding coordinator! Hanh is worth her weight in gold! With Day of Coordination we received not only ten hours of custom coordination from the wonderfully efficient and empathic Hanh, we also had the help of her assistant. This was perfect because someone was by my and my husband’s throughout the day. I loved that with SEG we had a whole team of magnifically organized, thorough and compassionate individuals to support us in executing our dream wedding. Once we had submitted our information Lindsay contacted us to go over all of the things included in wedding planning. She created a rough draft of our day of timeline and gave us access to our Wedding Workbook. They have templates for everything you will need for organizing your wedding and making sure you do not miss out on important, but often overlooked details. Two months before our wedding date we were connected with Hanh. From our first meeting throughout the whole time before the wedding and for the duration of our wedding itself Hanh was both our wedding angel and ninja rolled all into one. I had done a lot of the initial setting up vendors, but as soon as she could she took over as my contact person. This meant the vendors had to email/reach out to Hanh and left me feeling like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders. From this point on I started to enjoy wedding planning.I love that she reached out to not only myself, but included my now husband and daughter in on a meeting. If there were any hiccups leading up to the wedding I did not know until they were already handled. On our wedding day, everything went smoothly for my husband and I and our family.Again if there were any mishaps my husband and I were oblivious of them and we had the best wedding ever! Hanh was ready for anything, made sure we were treated like royalty and also took some amazing pictures! Thank you to Hanh and Simply Elegant Group for making our dream wedding come true!

oso events began with our own wedding, and as a husband-and-wife team, we know firsthand how important it is to have a day that feels effortless, personal, and entirely yours. We’ve been in your shoes, and that’s why we approach planning with both expertise and empathy.​ But we don’t do it alone. Behind every wedding is team oso—a group of experienced planners who share our passion for seamless events and thoughtful execution. We bring a calm presence, deep expertise, and an obsession with making sure things run smoothly—so you don’t have to worry about a thing.

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.

Lizzie jumped in as our wedding planner midway through the planning process and didn’t miss a beat! She made every part of the process so seamless. She really took the time to get to know us and our style/preferences and recommended vendors that fit our needs perfectly. Every request was met with a positive attitude and a willingness to make anything work. It was so nice to have a roadmap and to be able to focus on the big picture, knowing that all of the little details were being taken care of. The day of our wedding was totally stress-free and executed perfectly so that we were able to enjoy our time with loved ones. We didn’t even find out until after the event that our pizza order for the after-party had been cancelled! Lizzie somehow made sure it still showed up as expected. We can’t recommend RBE’s team enough to anyone planning a wedding in NYC or beyond. The level of care and thoughtfulness truly exceeded expectations and didn’t go unnoticed by our guests.

Thanks for visiting Breezy Day, we are so happy you are here! We are a sister team in San Diego, committed to helping you make your engagement & wedding day a breeze! WE CANNOT WAIT TO GET TO KNOW YOU!

I used both the wedding coordination and floral services from Breezy Day and both services went above and beyond, making our wedding day perfect. Courtney was our wedding coordinator and she made the process so much easier. I was so stressed about the wedding planning process until I met Courtney, I wonder if we would have even had a wedding if I didn’t meet her to be honest! From the initial phone call, she explained the wedding planning process and reassured me that we could have a great wedding within our limited budget. She had a list of vendors she recommended which I picked all of my vendors from and it made the process of selecting vendors so much easier. Courtney was always able to help answer my questions throughout the whole year of planning and always responded in a timely manner. Then, on the day of the wedding, Courtney made the entire day so smooth and it went just as planned. I cannot recommend Courtney and the wedding day of coordinator services more. I don’t know what I would have done without her! The florals from Breezy Day Weddings were also incredible. They were more beautiful in person then I even expected. I chose the a la carte options from the Shoppe and the florals were so beautiful. Heather was great and very responsive when I asked questions about the process. The florals were seamlessly delivered to the venue on the day of the wedding and Courtney set the centerpieces on the table for me and placed the florals on the cake and it was so stunning. The service from both the day of coordination services and the florals were 10 out of 10! I cannot recommend them enough. They were affordable, professional, efficient, friendly, reassuring, and just amazing all around. If you’re getting married, you need to hire them for your wedding! Thank you again, Courtney and Heather!

Awarded Best of Zola
We were initially introduced to Wilder Minds Events after one of our friends recommended them to us for wedding planning. Aside from deciding on my husband, choosing Wilder Minds event planners was the best decision I made for my wedding. We started working with Delaney and right off the bat I knew we made the right decision—Delaney was attentive and quick to respond to any texts/calls/questions we had, although I didn’t know exactly how right my decision was until much later. About a week before the wedding we were faced with some extremely difficult decisions to make because of hurricane Helene. Our reception venue didn’t have power 24 hrs before the wedding and Delaney stepped up and was ready with several alternative options, providing us with peace of mind and reassurance every step of the way that she would do everything and anything within her power to make this wedding everything we had dreamt of it being. We ended up completely switching venues several hours before the welcome party started, and everything ended up being absolutely beautiful and unforgettable—all thanks to our amazing, kind and caring wedding planner Delaney and the wonderful, dedicated venders she had connected us with. I cannot thank Delaney and the Wilder Minds event planners enough for saving the best day of our lives. My husband and I are both genuinely sad that our time planning with Delaney is over and we will miss hearing from her on a regular basis very much.

Angel was such a grounding and supportive presence throughout my wedding planning journey. She made me feel so at ease, even when the details started to feel overwhelming. She set clear deadlines that kept me on track, and she was always there to guide me when I felt unsure—whether it was something big or even something as small (but stressful!) as picking tablecloths. Every little detail truly came to life because of her thoughtful guidance. Even though we weren’t full-service clients, she went above and beyond for us. She gave such helpful advice on handling contracts, tipping etiquette, and all the things I never would have known how to navigate on my own. What I loved most was that she kept it real with us—always honest, always mindful of our budget, and always making sure we made choices that felt right for us. I’m so grateful to have had Angel by my side. She didn’t just help make our wedding day seamless; she made the entire planning process less stressful and so much more enjoyable. I truly can’t imagine doing it without her.

My husband and I got married on 6/15/2024. I handled majority of our wedding planning, but as an OCD bride, my biggest anxiety was not being able to be hands on for the day of our wedding.

That’s when I knew I needed a day of coordinator. I came across Star Rose Creations and I’m SO happy that I did. Miranda and Kylie are absolutely gems!!

Her calm and reassuring presence kept us all on track, and we were able to enjoy every moment without worrying about a thing. It was clear that Angela cares deeply about her clients and genuinely loves what she does. Thanks to Angela, our wedding was flawless, and we could not have asked for a better coordinator.

I found Cherish Your Vows through a recommendation from my venue in the Keys and from the start I felt Lisa really understood the vibe I wanted for my wedding. She found me a great Dj and her husband handled the Video. I ended up also selecting Lisa for the florals and it was so beautiful. There's a lot of planning and meetings that go into getting a wedding put together... I learned a lot and could not have done it without Lisa. The wedding was beautiful and I am so thankful.

My husband and I will never stop recommending BW Studio Events!!!! Blair is an absolute pro! She has a fool-proof strategy for wedding planning, a wealth of wedding knowledge and connections with the highest quality vendors, and a stunning vision and ability to understand the vision of others! The peace of mind Blair's expertise and communication brought to our planning process was PRICELESS. We knew no detail would be missed, and we were confident that Blair could handle any challenge that might come our way, whether it was on the day of or during planning. Our wedding day was truly perfect, and the way the vision in my head came to life in our venue surpassed my expectations! Meanwhile, I had the most chill, beautiful morning getting ready for the wedding, and I have her assistant Elly to thank for it! She was absolutely spectacular. She was present every moment we needed her and blended into the background while sneakily helping, like steaming our dresses and setting up the gifts for my ladies without us even knowing. She was like our secret fairy godmother! And when I was getting ready to walk down the aisle and was feeling anxious, she was the most calm presence. She really helped me keep my composure. So so grateful for all she did for us! She made me feel so special :] Long story short, if you're wondering if hiring a wedding planner is worth it, I'm here to tell you THEY ARE WORTH EVERY SINGLE PENNY!!!

Kaci Danae Events

San Jose, CA
  • Offers 3 services
  • Starts at $500

I’ve always been inspired by the strong, ambitious women in my life who built successful small businesses in the hospitality industry — from restaurant owners and bakers to caterers and florists. Growing up surrounded by their entrepreneurial spirit, I was motivated to follow my own path and create something meaningful in the world of events. ​ After spending two years working as a Wedding Coordinator at the Westin, the pandemic hit and forced a pause on hotel weddings. That unexpected turn of events only fueled my determination to turn my passion into a full-time business. And so, Kaci Danae Events was born.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I hired Kaci as our wedding day-of coordinator and it was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! We were able to enjoy our day without stressing about anything and trusted Kaci to handle all of the details that we envisioned. She was so calm, cool, and collected through all of our meetings and was able to calm my nerves on the wedding day too. She was so sweet, listened to the things we wanted, and her organization and communication made her a great coordinator for us. Would recommend Kaci to anyone looking for a coordinator!

Evviva made planning our wedding so easy. Kat and her team are so amazing to work with and made our day run seamlessly. We also had them do design and Kat totally brought my vision to life. Kat is so creative and made our wedding more beautiful than we could even imagine. She took my Pinterest inspo and thought of details that I never have come up with myself such as drink menus, a seating chart and beautiful invitations that matched my vision perfectly. I could not recommend Kat and her team enough. If you’re on the fence, hire them! It will be one of the best decisions you make in the wedding planning process.

I’m not even sure where to begin to describe how amazing Events by McKenna is at what they do!! McKenna is the most kind, helpful, and enthusiastic person to assist you during such an important time in your life. She made sure everything went perfectly on our wedding day and every day leading up to it! When we first started our wedding planning journey, we only knew where we wanted to have it, and due to the venue location not regularly being used for weddings, we needed to outsource vendors for everything. That's where McKenna came in and helped us out by hand-picking every vendor that she knew would provide the exact things we were looking for. From catering, florals, furniture rentals, DJ, and all the little details, she knew who would be perfect for the job and she was right about every single one! Every time we had a question or a crazy idea, she had an answer right away and she would do everything she could to make it happen. One thing that we were really hoping for was getting a disco ball above our dance floor, but since we were outdoors, it wasn’t looking promising. McKenna was the one who made sure that we got our disco ball, and it was absolutely perfect! That’s just one example of the many ways McKenna ensured our dream wedding would become a reality. On the day of, McKenna and her team were so efficient and handled everything so that my husband and I could relax and focus on ourselves. We got to our venue and everything was already done and ready to start the day! McKenna was amazing at time management throughout the day, and she was so helpful to not only us, but our families, wedding party and guests as well. Everything went perfectly on schedule and all the crazy ideas that we had came to life with no issues! It was truly the best day of our lives and it wouldn’t have been possible without McKenna’s help! I could write so much more on how incredible Events by McKenna is, but to sum it all up, they are the best choice for your wedding planning and coordinating needs and you will not regret choosing them for your big day!!

Aside from my love for all-things-events-and-weddings, I am a cat mom, dog mom (to the best dog ever, truly), goofy type-A (yes, we exist). I love everything coffee, purple, and vintage; I almost never go somewhere without red lipstick. And you’ll probably see me somewhere in downtown Frederick at least twice a week. The SBD team has a team of Leads and Assistants of all backgrounds but we all share a love for logistics and supporting couples on their special day!

Sarah and Sarah were amazing to work with! From day 1 we felt very comfortable with Owner, Sarah Rosier. She is very easy to talk to and super knowledgeable. She never makes you feel rushed and answers all of your questions. On the day of our wedding we worked with both Sarah Rosier and Sarah Rose. Both Sarah's were so helpful and ensured our big day went smooth. We were able to have so much fun and enjoy the moment because we knew Sarah and Sarah were taking care of everything. I highly recommend using SBD&E - especially if you are getting married at Union Mills Public House in Frederick, MD. SBD&E does a ton of events there, so they know the space like the back of their hand. It made everything so seamless and I could not imagine getting married without SBD&E! In the photo below, what you don't see is Sarah Rosier standing across from up giving us step by step instructions on the best way to cut the cake (it is harder than it looks lol!)... talk about attention to detail and making sure even the small details of the cake cutting were covered! Choose SBD&E as your wedding coordinator, you won't regret it!

About wedding planners

How much does a wedding planner cost?

On average, a full-service wedding planner can cost between $3,000 and $10,000. It depends on where you live and where you’re getting married. Planners in areas with high costs of living, like New York City and San Francisco, may charge upwards of $20,000. If you’re having a destination wedding, consider using a planner local to the area—you’ll avoid paying extra for travel, accommodations, and meals. Day-of coordinators cost less. They may have a flat fee between $1,000 and $5,000, or charge hourly. Always ask about pricing up front so nothing comes as a surprise later.

What do wedding planners do?

  Think of wedding planners as jack-of-all-trades experts when it comes to weddings. Many offer different levels of service to meet your needs. If you just want
  day-of coordination, for example, your planner will be there to make sure your ceremony and reception go off without a hitch. This may mean setting up vendors or directing your wedding party and guests to make sure everyone is where they need to be at the right time. On the other end of the spectrum, full-service planning may involve:
  <ul>
    <li>Starting the planning far in advance</li>
    <li>Budget management</li>
    <li>Coordinating with your venue</li>
    <li>Recommending vendors and negotiating contracts</li>
    <li>Staying on top of trends and making suggestions</li>
    <li>Ironing out all-important last-minute details</li>
    <li>Running interference with family members if conflict arises</li>
    <li>Making a schedule and ensuring everything runs smoothly</li>
    <li>Executing on your vision, from the rehearsal dinner to the reception</li>
  </ul>
  

Should we get a wedding planner?

Planners are great resources and can make planning your wedding much less stressful. If you’ve got the budget, a wedding planner is well worth the investment. Planners offer different service levels at varying price points. Choose the amount of help and cost that makes the most sense for you. At the bare minimum, you need someone (hired or delegated) to help manage the event day-of so you will be able to enjoy yourselves without worrying about too many logistics. If you decide to enlist a friend or family member to take on this role, keep in mind that this person will need to prioritize your needs over their own, and will no longer be attending or enjoying the wedding simply as a guest.
