Picking Elyse as our wedding planner was by far the best decision we could have ever made. From the moment we met her, we felt her expertise and passion shine through and knew she would be the perfect person to plan our wedding. We quickly realized those qualities were just the tip of the iceberg when it came to Elyse - she was also thoughtful, patient, tasteful, invested and attentive. Her project coordinator, Lauryn, matches her greatness and the two of them were truly our partners, not just our planners, throughout the entire wedding process.

By asking thoughtful questions at the beginning, they quickly gained our trust and their aptitude showed at every turn - we constantly found ourselves saying, “thank goodness we get to work with them” and nothing was a better example of this than the final execution when they turned our shared vision into the wedding of our dreams.

Living in LA while planning a wedding in SLO, we relied on Elyse and Lauryn as our local guides and they did not disappoint. They connected us with the best of the best when it came to our vendor team, and every single person we worked with consistently and genuinely praised Elyse as someone they also loved to work with.

When we reflect on the wedding process, the word that comes to mind is “seamless.” Because we had hired Elyse Events (and because they are so on top of it), we never felt like we needed to sweat the small stuff and instead we got to put our focus and energy towards the fun parts. This seamlessness extended into the wedding day itself, when they ensured that all of our vendors had the necessary information and were where they needed to be… we barely even realized any of it was happening; it just felt like pieces calmly fell into place around us. On top of flawlessly managing the event, Elyse and Lauryn were there for the both of us throughout the entire day, going above and beyond when the moment called for it. This, we realize, is the magic of Elyse Events. They are great planners, but even better people.

We truly cannot imagine having planned our wedding with anyone else and are so grateful that we had Elyse and Lauryn with us on our special day. Anyone would be lucky to work with this team when planning their wedding day.

Elyse was one of the first people we hired for our wedding in Paso Robles and was everything we were looking for and more. We had a specific vision in mind and she knew the best vendors to book to complete that vision, accommodated all of our asks, and most of all made the entire planning process easy and fun for us. She knew we like Disney and sports, and incorporated subtle yet meaningful nods to our personalities throughout the entire wedding, and if there was anything that went wrong on our wedding day, we definitely couldn't tell. Can't recommend Elyse Events enough, so if you're thinking of hiring Elyse this is your sign to do it!

My wife and I recently got married in San Luis Obispo and used Elyse as our wedding planner. She was everything we could have asked for - organized, professional, and fun! Elyse was a pleasure to work with and made our wedding absolutely stress free. She is detail-oriented and had a thorough event timeline for the entire day (and days before) which is something we and our families very much appreciated. She met regularly with us throughout the process and was always on top of checking in with vendors and meeting dates we needed to. Any question we had or any last minute request we had she handled for us! We have nothing but wonderful things to say about Elyse and her team and recommend them to anyone in the area.

Elevated the Elegance . Joy …. And .Professionalism To A Day of Wondrous Love!

All done with confidence and care…. Thank you!

As a professional wedding planner, I hold incredibly high standards when it comes to event execution — especially when it’s my own wedding. I designed and planned every detail with care, and when it came time to hand over the reins, I trusted Elyse to bring it all to life. She exceeded every expectation.

From the moment she stepped in, Elyse took complete ownership of the coordination with confidence, clarity, and calm. She understood my vision down to the smallest detail and ensured everything ran smoothly and precisely. I could actually relax and enjoy the day, knowing she was behind the scenes making sure everything was perfectly in place.

What I appreciated most was how seriously she took the responsibility. I was most worried about things being straight, styled, and timed just right, and she handled every element with such precision that I didn’t need to check or stress. I’ve never felt so secure handing over a production this personal.

Elyse isn’t just organized and efficient — she’s thoughtful, steady under pressure, and incredibly intuitive. She is also KIND. She knew what I needed before I even asked. My husband and I were so happy and present the entire day because of her support, and for that I’ll always be grateful.

If you’re a bride, planner, or vendor looking for someone you can trust completely to execute a vision with excellence and grace, I cannot recommend Elyse highly enough. She’s the kind of coordinator who elevates the entire experience.

We couldn’t be more thrilled with Elyse from Elyse Events for planning our April wedding! From the start, Elyse truly listened to my ideas and then elevated them into something even more beautiful than I could have imagined. She designed the most stunning day, thoughtfully pairing us with amazing vendors who brought our vision to life.

She trusted me to create my own signage and provided insightful, professional guidance to make everything look cohesive and polished. Elyse’s attention to detail was incredible, with seamless backup plans for all weather conditions (which, thankfully, we didn’t need!).

Elyse ensured everything ran smoothly and on time, allowing us to fully relax and enjoy the day. And when I had a hair emergency, she stepped in to fix it herself! Her sweet, kind, and fun personality made working with her such a joy.

We are so incredibly grateful for Elyse’s hard work, creativity, and dedication. She turned our dream wedding into reality and made the entire process feel effortless.

Highly recommend Elyse Events to anyone looking for a planner who truly cares and goes above and beyond to make your day perfect!

Working with Elyse was, without a doubt, the best decision we made for our wedding. She’s more than just a planner—she became a trusted partner and a true friend throughout the process.

Elyse is grounded, incredibly talented, and brings both professionalism and deep sincerity to her work. She’s organized, a clear communicator, and always ten steps ahead. She helped us navigate a complex planning process with calm and clarity, and she always had our backs.

What sets her apart is that she truly puts her heart and soul into what she does. Every detail was executed beautifully and thoughtfully, and she made our dream wedding a reality. We are endlessly grateful to her and couldn’t recommend her more highly.

We cannot express enough how grateful we are for Elyse and her assistant Lauryn’s incredible work on our wedding- as well as her whole staff that helped out on wedding day!! From start to finish, they went above and beyond to make our special day unforgettable. They truly took the time to understand our vision and brought every detail to life with such care and expertise. We were able to use their help to portray throughout our wedding the foundation for our relationship and life - which is Jesus Christ!!

Elyse was not only extremely organized and professional, but she also brought a sense of calm and positivity that made the planning process so enjoyable. Her attention to detail and creative ideas were evident in every aspect of our wedding, and her ability to keep everything running smoothly allowed us to truly relax and be present on our big day. It’s clear that Elyse and Lauryn and the whole team each pour their heart and soul into their work.

Thank you again for helping to make our wedding a day we will cherish forever!!
