My passion for weddings began early, but planning my own wedding in 2019 truly sparked my love for creating intentional, meaningful celebrations. Since then, I’ve coordinated 40+ weddings and events, specializing in backyard and estate weddings by transforming non-traditional spaces into beautifully curated wedding experiences. With a detail-oriented and personalized approach, I focus on creating seamless celebrations that feel elevated, welcoming, and uniquely reflective of each couple.

I had the pleasure of working with Kalyna as our Day-of Coordinator for our wedding on October 21st, 2023, at Arden Hills Country Club, and I can’t recommend her enough! While the venue had its own coordinator, Kalyna was absolutely essential in making our day run smoothly. One of the biggest challenges we faced was having a large wedding party, and Kalyna took charge of wrangling everyone, making sure that all our bridal party members and vendors were exactly where they needed to be. She was super organized and kept everything on track, even when things got a little hectic. Kalyna’s ability to troubleshoot any logistical issues that popped up was amazing. Whether it was managing timing or helping with last-minute adjustments, she handled everything seamlessly. She was calm under pressure, and we felt so relieved knowing that she was behind the scenes making sure all the moving pieces came together. In addition to managing the big day itself, Kalyna also helped us with finding vendors leading up to the wedding. She connected us with an incredible hair artist who did an amazing job on the bridal party, which was one less thing we had to worry about. Her resourcefulness and network made the planning process so much easier! Her attention to detail and proactive approach made such a difference. From coordinating with the vendors to ensuring our crew was in the right place at the right time, Kalyna made the day stress-free for us, allowing us to focus on enjoying the celebration. If you’re looking for someone who can handle the logistics of your big day with grace, organization, and a calm demeanor, I highly recommend Kalyna! She truly helped make our wedding day perfect.

Amanda was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the very beginning, she was always available whenever I had a question or concern. No matter how big or small, she responded quickly, reassured me, and made the entire planning process feel so much less stressful. On our wedding day, she was absolutely incredible. While we were able to be fully present and enjoy every moment, Amanda was behind the scenes making sure everything ran flawlessly. She handled every detail with such professionalism and care, and I know there were countless things she took care of that we never even had to think about. The perfect example of this is something I didn’t even find out about until a few days after the wedding. A family member told me that our cake was about to be cut and served before we had done our cake-cutting ceremony. Amanda caught it just in time and handled everything so seamlessly that I had absolutely no idea anything had happened. That’s how amazing she was. If there was ever a hiccup, I never knew about it because she took care of it before it ever reached us. She allowed us to be completely present, soak in every moment, and truly enjoy our wedding day without a single worry. I am so incredibly grateful for Amanda and everything she did to make our wedding perfect. She gave us the gift of a beautiful, seamless, and genuinely stress-free day, and that is priceless. If you’re looking for a wedding coordinator who truly cares, anticipates problems before they happen, and goes above and beyond for her couples, I cannot recommend Amanda highly enough. She exceeded every expectation, and we will always be grateful for everything she did to make our day so special!

A wedding often starts long before the venue or vendors, with a childhood dream, saved images, or a vision waiting to take shape. At Aesthetic Embassy, that vision comes first and holds everything together, so nothing feels random or disconnected. Vendors, meetings, contracts, timelines, and budgets are kept under control, so you’re not chasing people or dealing with last minute issues. Each program is structured like a show, with clear timing and cues, so nothing feels rushed or out of place. No vendor commissions, only a trusted network. Full service planning and coordination in the Bay Area.

Aesthetic Embassy just got us from the start — not only the look, but the whole vibe of our wedding . Everything was handled with so much care and professionalism , and on the day of the wedding I was actually able to relax and enjoy it, which meant everything to me, since I am a freak controlling person It all felt very personal, amazingly beautiful, and real. So grateful we worked with them

Hi, I’m Athena! As a wedding planner and event coordinator based in Northern CA, I specialize in creating seamless and memorable celebrations. With years of experience in the industry and a background in design consulting, I focus on bringing my clients’ unique visions to life while ensuring a stress-free planning experience. Whether you're dreaming of an intimate gathering or a grand affair, I’m here to guide you every step of the way—from vendor coordination to timeline creation and all the little details in between. My goal is to make the planning process enjoyable and to craft an event that truly reflects you.

Athena was so much more than just our planner: she was our rock, our supporter, and our biggest cheerleader throughout the entire process. I honestly could not have asked for anyone better to be part of our wedding. She helped us create the timeline, designed our decor, created our floor plan, assisted in our rehearsal, kept me on track with my tasks, and even stepped in to meet with vendors when I was overwhelmed. The entire day was perfect - and she made sure I had a drink in my hand and food on my plate at all times!! Our entire wedding party, parents, and guests adored her and recognized all the hard work she was doing. We could not have done our wedding without her. If you are looking for someone who will not only execute your vision but will also feel like a beloved part of your family, look no further than Athena.

It was a pleasure working with Kaiya! She was very cooperative, knowledgeable, and organized throughout the entire process. The package I chose with Kaiya was the event management service. Wedding planning was a bit stressful for me since it was just my partner and I planning the whole thing together but 3 months before the event Kaiya jumped in and helped manage all of our vendors, helped with day of timeline, and more. She also helped coordinate the rehearsals and the day of the wedding. I truly did not have to worry about a single thing on my wedding day, Kaiya handled everything with ease and care, and she guided us through our timelines of events that day with expertise. Without her I don’t know how I would have been able to manage everything on my own. I appreciate her greatly and am glad I was able to work with her! Thank you again Kaiya!

Awarded Best of Zola
I worked with Amanda while planning my May 2026 wedding at Hard Rock Los Cabos. As background, my wedding included 116 guests, with a 30-person wedding party. Also, we had Amanda to guide planning a Rehearsal Dinner, with a Welcome Party following dinner, for the night before the wedding. During the months leading up to the wedding, we had monthly meetings to ensure we were on track for our timeline. And Amanda was amazing at keeping in communication outside of these monthly check-ins. She would send me design inspirations, update me with vendor quotes, and would check to make sure I was feeling good about the process. During the initial design process, she was incredibly patient with me, my mom, and fiancé, when we changed designs (not once but twice). She made sure the overall design and feel of each event was exactly what my fiancé and I envisioned for each event. She was organized, and when we needed to make a few budget cuts, she gave advise on areas we could "save" and areas we could "splurge" without giving up the overall design and "feel" of the events. Amanda handled all communication with my vendors, which was AMAZING. She worked hard to follow up with the vendors, request negotiations, and request follow up quotes when we made design or budget changes. She planned the three event timelines, and everything went so smoothly. Without Amanda, I definitely do not think my wedding planning experience or wedding events would have worked out so flawlessly. I would recommend hiring Amanda every time! She truly was the best.

AWE Planner 
Rating: 5.0 (9 reviews)
  • Offers 5 services
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Hayward, CA

As the founder of AWE Planner, you might wonder: How did she become a planner? How many events do we coordinate each year? What inspires us about this work? For founder Jenn Greel, becoming a wedding and event planner was a natural path. Her journey began with bartending private events, and planning gatherings for friends, which eventually spared the idea of launching her own planning business. From our first wedding fair to signing our first client-who happened to be a coworker at the time-AWE Planner was built from scratch. With every event we've learned, grown, and harnessed our experiences to shape the outstanding team we are today.

Jenn is phenomenal! We hired her as a month-of coordinator for our wedding. In the final weeks leading up to our wedding, she created a floor plan and timeline for us, coordinated our rehearsal, and guided us on things like signage and vendor tips, which we would have been completely lost on without her help. She was very responsive (and patient!) as we peppered her with questions. We were already impressed with her at that point, but she really shone on our wedding day. There was so much going on, and she and her assistants handled it all so seamlessly. She made sure that everything was set up, everybody was where they were supposed to be, and that my husband and I were well-fed and hydrated throughout the evening, and she did it all with a calm demeanor that put everyone at ease. We were even ahead of schedule for most of the day! Here's a little story about Jenn and her team's attention to detail: She asked us ahead of the wedding day what drinks we wanted to have waiting for us at dinner. My husband asked for a Diet Coke. In my vows during the ceremony, I made a comment about how he prefers to drink Diet Cokes with no ice, and then when it was time for dinner, his Diet Coke had no ice! We were touched that Jenn and her team were listening and cared to make that personal little change. If you're planning a wedding and are wondering whether you need a coordinator, 1) yes, you do, and 2) you need to go with Jenn! She's the best :)

I cannot recommend Cynthia enough! The last three months leading up to my wedding were incredibly stressful, but bringing Cynthia on board as our day-of coordinator was one of the best decisions we made. From the moment she stepped in, she brought a sense of calm and control that truly helped relieve so much of the pressure I was feeling. Cynthia is incredibly organized and detail-oriented. She thought of things I never would have, and her preparation gave me the confidence to actually enjoy my wedding day. She executed all the decor exactly how I envisioned it and added thoughtful touches that made everything look even more beautiful than I imagined. When unexpected things came up (as they always do!), Cynthia handled them with grace and quick thinking, adjusting both the timeline and details seamlessly without ever needing to stress me out. She also managed all communication with the other vendors on the big day, which was a huge load off my shoulders. I didn’t have to worry about a single logistical detail because I knew she had it covered. My family couldn’t stop raving about how wonderful and helpful she was throughout the entire day. If you're looking for someone who is calm under pressure, incredibly capable, and truly committed to making your day perfect, Cynthia is your person. I’m so grateful for everything she did for us!

At ImPerfect Events, we believe the most meaningful celebrations are human and emotion-driven — which means they’re often a little messy, sometimes unpredictable, and never truly “perfect.” Those moments are usually where the joy lives, and what make a day feel unique and real. We were founded on the belief that weddings and events should be about love and community. They should feel warm, welcoming, and joyful — and we believe that same ease can exist in the planning process, too. In an overwhelming world, our goal is to create a planning experience that brings clarity, organization, and calm without losing heart.

Working with Sydney was such a great experience. She was so open to hearing about our (extensive) ideas and themes, all the miscellaneous thoughts we wanted to talk about, but then helping us understand what we could realistically do while staying true to our vision. Sydney was so on it, being detail oriented, keeping us on track, and helping us through achieving our milestones. Thank you so much, Sydney for all you did to make our special day one we'll never forget!

I am a 'hands-on' Wedding and Events Coordinator that goes above and beyond my client's expectations. I take pride in what I do and ensure that everyone from my Bride and Groom or Host, their guests, and even their hired vendors are taken care of throughout the celebration.

Coco-Creations was an absolute lifesaver for our wedding. Elizabeth was incredibly detail-oriented, thorough, and patient as she guided us through the final stages of planning. She ensured we accounted for all the little details we hadn’t even considered. On the days of the wedding, we were able to fully immerse ourselves in the celebration without a single worry about behind-the-scenes logistics. Elizabeth’s meticulous attention to every aspect, from the big picture to the smallest detail, allowed us to truly enjoy every moment. We cannot recommend Elizabeth enough to any couple planning their wedding.

At The Darling Buds, we are committed to delivering a service rooted in trust, care, and attention to detail. We understand how meaningful your special moments are, and we treat each one with the respect and dedication it deserves. Your happiness is at the heart of everything we do. Let’s work together to create lasting memories, thoughtfully crafted and beautifully remembered.

We couldn't have asked for better wedding planners than Anna and Lucky! They are incredibly responsible, detail-oriented, and an absolute joy to work with. From the very beginning, they scheduled an initial meeting to understand our love story, our vision for the wedding, our budget, and to walk us through the services they offer at The Darling Buds. After that meeting, they sent over a detailed breakdown of their packages. After thoughtful consideration, we chose the Month-of Coordination package--and it was one of the best decisions we made! In addition to coordination, they helped us build a beautiful and affordable wedding website that included our love story, the wedding agenda, RSVP page, photo gallery, and a link to our registry. They also went above and beyond by helping us create a wedding invitation tailored for our international guests to assist with their visa applications--such a thoughtful touch. One month before the wedding, we had a comprehensive prep meeting to go through every detail of the big day. Anna and Lucky became our main point of contact for all vendor communication, which saved us so much time and stress. As first-time newlyweds, we felt incredibly supported--they thought of every little detail we might have missed. They were punctual and helpful at our rehearsal, offering invaluable tips for ceremony positioning, like where each person should stand and how to coordinate with photographers and videographers to ensure all the right moments were captured. On the wedding day itself, Anna and Lucky truly worked their magic-arranging outdoor dining tables, communicating seamlessly with vendors, and keeping us updated on the schedule to make sure everything went smoothly. We are beyond satisfied with the planning and execution of our wedding thanks to Anna and Lucky. My husband and I had a truly magical day, and we wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone who is going to plan their wedding!

Meshawn was such a fantastic coordinator and we got so much value for the price with the day-of coordination package. She followed up with me every month leading up to the wedding to make sure the planning and vendor bookings were on track and. She also helped a ton with planning the full schedule for the day and had a good sense of how long each thing would take. And on the day-of she put out sooo many fires- unexpected guests showing up, adding an extra reception table, grabbing the vows that I forgot in the car last minute, coordinating with all the vendors. And every event was exactly on time and perfectly smooth. Even if you're doing a mostly DIY or budget wedding- day-of coordination is sooo worth it and I highly recommend Perfection Unlimited. They're super professional, calm, and kind. So grateful to their team for all their hard work.

Wed with Carissa pairs a warm, personal approach with thoughtful planning and steady guidance, so couples feel calm, confident, and fully supported throughout the process. Think of Carissa as your trusted expert and wedding planning bestie—the one who keeps things organized, anticipates details, and advocates for you every step of the way. From timelines and vendor coordination to thoughtful design and seamless day-of execution, her goal is simple: to create an effortless, meaningful wedding experience that truly feels like you.

Working with Carissa was wonderful! We worked with her as are month-of coordinator and day-of coordinator because our venue required one. She did a wonderful job communicating with our venue (who could be a bit unresponsive at times) and helping keep the rest of our vendors up to date on the latest plans. On the wedding day itself, I couldn't believe how fast the day flew by, and Carissa really helped us to make sure things were moving smoothly (even putting some appetizers aside for us as we missed cocktail hour for pictures), and made adjustments to the timeline on the fly as well as needed. I'd definitely recommend working with Carissa!

Hi, I’m Kalani! I believe you should be able to actually enjoy the wedding you’ve spent so much time planning. My job is to take the timelines, vendor communication, last-minute questions, and behind the scenes details off your plate so you and the people you love can be fully present.

I seriously can’t recommend Kalani enough. From the start, she was super organized and on top of every detail, which made everything feel way less stressful. Her transparency paired with her ability to problem-solve was the perfect combo. Kalani was always clear and upfront, she quickly communicated any high-priority issues, questions or roadblocks in what we thought was the best way possible. It felt like if anything “small” or “stupid” came up, I didn’t even notice because she handled it. I actually got to enjoy my event instead of worrying. On the day of, everything flowed so smoothly. There was a point when our timeline started to run behind due to vendor issues and she adjusted things in real time and coordinated with vendors to get us back on track without it feeling rushed. She also handled a last-minute seating change for a few guests so seamlessly that no one even realized there had been an issue. We LOVVEEDDD her energy! She’s so lively and easy to connect with, and she didn’t just support me, she connected with my guests too. People were coming up to me talking about how great she was. She’s professional, reliable, and genuinely cares about what she does. You can tell she takes pride in her work. I’m so glad I booked her and would 100% recommend her.
