Eventful Wedding Planning - San Luis Obispo, California

Chelsy M.

Colleen and her team are absolutely wonderful. My husband and I interviewed a handful of planners/coordinators for our wedding, and we clicked with Colleen immediately over the phone. She's funny, straight-forward, kind, organized and creative.
Colleen created a custom proposal for us that included both Design and Coordination. Throughout our planning process, she was readily available by email/phone/text. She helped us through all of our questions (there were many!) and was candid in her suggestions. She recommended vendors for us in every category and we couldn't have been happier with the selection! We truly had a rock star team of vendors.
On our wedding day, things went off without a hitch. Colleen and her team had everything under control, including all decorations, and my husband and I didn't have to worry about a thing! She and her team had a well developed schedule and literally just told us where to go and when. It was SUCH a relief to not have to make ANY decisions on my wedding day. My husband and I had the most amazing day! I would recommend Colleen and her team 100 times over! Truly amazing!

Dream Wedding in 5 days!!
Colleen and Eventful Wedding Planning helped us create our dream wedding in 5 days after canceling a large destination celebration due to a hurricane. We are so grateful that we met Colleen and were still able to have our dream celebration. I cannot imagine the work Colleen and her team can accomplish with more notice. Thank you to Colleen for making our celebration our dream wedding!

Working with Colleen is always a joy! She is organize, creative and always positive! As fellow vendors in the wedding industry, we are always very excited when we find out that Colleen will be coordinating an event or wedding that we are also working on. We HIGHLY recommend her for your next wedding or event! (See attached pic of one very happy couple + our bar service truck, Bunny. A flawless day coordinated by Colleen)

Firstly, there is no one I would trust more than Colleen to plan or help you plan your wedding. Colleen was our coordinator for 2+ years as we were a Covid couple that had to cancel our first /and/ second wedding attempts. Throughout it all she was right there answering every question and guiding us through one of the most stressful times to plan a wedding! Colleen is so fun, kind, and professional. She gave us incredible and candid vendor recommendations that made the best vendor team we could have asked for. She gave us a warm handoff to another amazing coordinator for our wedding day as she needed to take a step back for her maternity leave, but even at 8 months pregnant she still came to coordinate for us for a few hours on the day of!!! She even went to get us batteries for our flameless candles on the day of when we didn’t realize they didn’t come with the batteries. My husband and I can’t recommend her enough and would hire her again any time we had an event!!! Outstanding.

Popolo Catering has worked with Colleen on a few different weddings and we would definitely recommend her services. Colleen is detail oriented, easy to work with, and a great communicator. Our events with her always go perfectly.

Like many brides, I had goals to have a beautiful wedding while staying within a reasonable budget. However, I was planning a wedding in California from out of state, and our venue required us to have a wedding coordinator, so that led me to find Colleen and her team. I am SO THANKFUL it did. Colleen makes you feel so comfortable and at ease - she is kind, funny, and just a joy to be around. Not only that, but she gets. The. Job. Done. Like, the woman handles anything and everything, and she makes you feel like you’re killin’ it the whole time. She was extremely responsive - I’d send her emails with (no lie) 17 questions and she’d respond within a day, answering all of them. She has amazing connections and really fun recommendations, and she always encouraged me to pick the vendor or option I felt most comfortable with. The absolute best part was that on our wedding day, I didn’t have a single worry about anything logistics-related. I just got to enjoy the day with my husband, our friends and our family and that was the best gift ever. If you’re looking for someone to help navigate all of the crazy details to enjoy your big day, you’ve found her. Colleen is a gem.
