About Blue Dahlia Events

Blue Dahlia Events

Your experienced wedding coordinators!

You have a vision and so many options for making that vision a reality. And while you can hire someone to plan and execute it all--it may become their vision. Or, you can have a family member execute it, but that leaves them working on the day of your wedding. Or, you can find the right balance. You do the planning and we swoop in at just the right moment to bring your vision to a reality. Allowing all the important people to be present and enjoy your day.

With over a decade worth of experience, our team at Blue Dahlia is calm yet upbeat, we're organized but flexible. And since, we've been doing this for a long time and we've pretty much seen it all--we always have a plan in place and are ready to adjust when necessary. And best yet, we do it all with a smile!

In three words: Calm, Organized, Positive

    Game changer!

    Working with Blue Dahlia Events was a game-changer for our wedding planning process. Their communication was organized and streamlined from start to finish, which made the whole experience feel smooth and stress-free. My fiancé wasn't even sure we needed a day-of coordinator, but after the ceremony he said they were worth their weight in gold. Blue Dahlia kept everything running on schedule and handled all the details behind the scenes so we could actually enjoy our day. The quality of their work was amazing, and the value we got was absolutely worth it. We'd recommend them to any couple looking for a planner who truly cares about making their wedding day special.

    So glad we had Blue Dahlia in our corner!

    From the moment we started working with the Blue Dahlia team, we were impressed by their quick response times and their kind and thoughtful demeanor. The whole team's thorough, experienced, and detail-oriented approach ensured our wedding day was stress-free and seamless. Joyanna and her team took care of all the family wrangling and vendor logistics, allowing us to truly enjoy our day. Our guests even commented that it was the most well-run wedding they had ever attended. We are so grateful to the Blue Dahlia team for making our special day absolutely perfect.

    As an interfaith wedding rabbi and officiant, I have had the privilege of working alongside many talented wedding planners, and Blue Dahlia Events is one of those firms that understands that exceptional weddings are built on more than beautiful details. They are built on relationships, thoughtful planning, and creating experiences that feel authentic to the couple at the center of the celebration. What I especially appreciate about Blue Dahlia Events is its emphasis on personalization. Rather than approaching weddings with a predetermined formula, the team focuses on understanding each couple's story, priorities, and vision. That collaborative approach allows them to create celebrations that feel meaningful and distinctive rather than simply following current trends. From my perspective as an officiant, one of the most valuable qualities a planner can possess is the ability to provide calm guidance throughout the planning process. Blue Dahlia Events places a strong emphasis on communication, organization, and attention to detail, helping couples navigate vendor selection, timelines, logistics, and design decisions with confidence. The result is a planning experience that feels supportive rather than overwhelming. I also appreciate the company's commitment to creating a seamless guest experience. Great weddings are not simply beautiful; they make guests feel welcomed, comfortable, and included. From the flow of the event to the countless details that happen behind the scenes, Blue Dahlia Events understands how thoughtful planning contributes to an atmosphere where everyone can relax and enjoy the celebration. Another quality that stands out is their ability to balance creativity with execution. Beautiful design matters, but so does making sure every element works together smoothly on the wedding day itself. Blue Dahlia Events brings both of those skills to the table, helping couples create celebrations that are visually stunning while remaining practical and enjoyable for everyone involved. Most importantly, their work reflects an understanding that weddings are fundamentally about bringing people together. The décor, flowers, and details are important, but the true purpose of the day is connection, commitment, and celebration. Blue Dahlia Events keeps those priorities at the center of everything they do. For couples seeking a planning team that combines thoughtful organization, personalized service, creative design, and a genuine commitment to creating meaningful experiences, I am delighted to recommend Blue Dahlia Events. Their approach helps transform wedding visions into celebrations that are both beautiful and deeply memorable.

    If you’re considering hiring a wedding planner, Blue Dahlia Events is worth every penny. Working with Kate made the entire planning process feel organized, manageable, and genuinely fun. Every meeting left me feeling prepared, confident, and excited for the next step. Instead of feeling overwhelmed, I was actually able to enjoy planning our wedding, which is exactly how it should be. On the wedding day, everything ran seamlessly. Kate and her team thought of every detail, kept everything on schedule, and made sure I could stay fully present and enjoy the day. There was always someone checking in on me, making sure I had water, asking if I needed anything, and taking care of things before I even had to think about them. Because of Blue Dahlia Events, I was able to relax and soak in every moment of our wedding day. It truly could not have gone better. I cannot recommend Kate and Blue Dahlia Events enough, and I would choose them again in a heartbeat. 🤍
