My husband and I had to cancel our original destination wedding out of the country due to Covid. We wanted to keep the same date and still get married, but did not know where to start. Our morale was low and we had little to no motivation to plan a second wedding in such a short amount of time. I started to reach out to wedding planners and as soon as I had my initial consultation with Cassie, I knew that I wanted to work with her! She is so so sweet and gave us hope that a wedding during a pandemic can still be special while remaining safe. Cassie's communication and professionalism throughout the planning process was exceptional. She was always responsive to any questions that we had. She reached out to multiple venues that matched our criteria and she ended up finding the most perfect venue in Palm Springs for our small intimate party of 15. She coordinated all the vendors and took care of all communication between them. She served as our advocate and made sure decisions were made in our best interest and she always made sure to stick within our budget. In just a little over a month, Cassie put together such a special ceremony and dinner reception for our immediate families. The day was seamless and my husband and I had zero stress on our wedding day thanks to Cassie! The wedding that she put together in such a small amount of time was above and beyond what we had imagined and to say the least, it was perfect. Both of our families were saying that our small intimate micro-wedding ended up being better than our original destination wedding! We cannot thank her enough and highly recommend her for anyone in need of a wedding or party planner! :)

From my first conversation with Cassie, I knew I had found someone who could help make my dream wedding a reality! She is friendly and super organized. Her experience planning weddings helped take a lot of stress off of us. I love lists and really enjoyed using the Aisle Planner software through Cassie. It was an amazing resource to stay organized and know what to do next. Cassie organized and communicated our wedding day timeline to vendors, the wedding party and family, which saved me soooo much headache. It would have taken me forever to figure out how to plan out the day and this felt like one of the best payoffs of having a wedding planner.

The wedding day went off so well! In fact it felt perfect. I learned later about a few hiccups and was thankful that Cassie and her team handled everything with ease. To be clear, nothing that happened was their fault and they knew who to communicate with to get things resolved and not get me involved. What bride doesn't love that? Austin and Zaire were there to set up and assist on my wedding day and they were so awesome. The venue was set up exactly how I envisioned it and tear down felt like it was done in record time.

Cassie is truly wonderful to work with! I'll recommend her to anyone I can! She's sweet, thoughtful, organized and takes charge. Plus she is so knowledgable about weddings! Thank you Cassie, Austin and Zaire!!

Where can I begin? Cassie stood out from the rest of the wedding planners that we interviewed due to her awesome personality and industry knowledge. We were amazed that every wedding vendor we spoke to before selecting a planner knew who she was. This gave us confidence and assurance that she’d be the right choice for us.

We were very stressed out when we started the process as we chose a rapidly approaching wedding date. We honestly thought we wouldn’t be able to swing our dates, but Cassie quickly assured us that we would be ok, despite not even having a venue selected! She was very patient with us and helped us every single step of the way. She provided recommendations within our budget for everything from venue to the wedding cake and she nailed every single one of them! Her “day of” assistants were also phenomenal and made sure our wedding went smoothly and that all our guests had a great time.

We are so happy that we chose Events by Cassie and so will you!

Cassie Howard is by far one of the sweetest and most thoughtful planners I have ever met. As a Bride, you want someone who can guide you, genuinely listen, support you, encourage you and bring your dream wedding to life - Cassie did exactly that!

She was always willing to answer any and all questions we had during the planning process. She looked through contracts for us, gave incredible advice and handled any issue or conflict that came up with professionalism and kindness. She has an incredible eye for design and knew exactly what my husband and I wanted even with us giving vague descriptions ;) She has relationships with all the best vendors in the LA/OC area making it so easy to find the right people for us. Cassie truly made the whole process fun and exciting! She is extremely organized and uses an incredible program called AislePlanner to keep everything on track for you. Throughout the 12 months of planning, she always made us feel special and completely focused her attention to our wants and needs every time we met or talked.

My husband was traveling for work majority the planning process ands bummed he couldn't be at most of the meetings but Cassie always made him feel included and that it is as much the Groom's decision as it is the Bride's which I loved!

She has a team of awesome assistants that were so kind the day of our wedding - helping in any way they could with a smile. I'll always remember that special moment Cassie and I shared before I walked down the aisle - she gave me a big hug and said let's do this!

I consider Cassie now a dear friend and I cannot imagine our wedding day without her!

Amazing professional. I met Cassie while working an event and got back in touch when I got engaged. Throughout the process, we realized one of our priorities was to make sure someone was able to coordinate the day of and make sure things went smoothly. She certainly delivered! We had a year and a half to plan and so was so responsive when I asked her questions and wanted opinions, incredibly knowledgeable and reassuring. There were times when I was getting overwhelmed by vendors' questions and she totally stepped in and relieved the pressure. Her pricing is very reasonable, beyond that her service was priceless. We were able to enjoy our day, she prompted us when we needed to be present for dances, tosses, etc. We were able to rely on her to get us through one of the most important amazing days of our lives. I would recommend her services to EVERY couple getting married, so worth it! I managed the budget and would much rather cut expenses in other categories rather than not have her services. She is one-of-a-kind. A true professional for ANY event! I will use her in the future for more milestones to come!

We loved having Cassie as our day of coordinator! She made our day run smoothly and we would highly recommend!

Finding a wedding coordinator was like hiring an employed for my business. You must meet and interview them. This is the most important day of your life and if you don't bond with the person in charge of executing your day you got issues. I met/interviewed a lot of wedding coordinators but when I met Cassie there was an immediate connection and understanding.
I planned and did a lot of dyi decorations for my wedding. Cassie did a great job executing and organizing our wedding day. She took care of the all the little details that you don't think of when planning your wedding . That's why you hire a professional.
During the wedding she did an amazing job Letting me know what happens next and always being there when we needed her. She stayed till the very end to make sure everything was packed up and put away .
Cassie is a must for your special day !!!!

I wanted to do all my own wedding planning but our venue required that we have a day of coordinator, so my photographer recommended Cassie. Cassie was a pleasure to work with. Her pricing was within my budget and she pretty much started working right after I signed my contract, 8 months before my wedding. She attended both our menu tasting and final details meeting with us and answered any question I might have via email leading up to our wedding. On the actual day of I never once felt stressed and I was able to fully enjoy my day. She kept us on our timeline and made sure everything ran smoothly. At the end of the night she made sure everything was cleaned up and packed in my sister's car. I know I didn't use Cassie to her full potential since I had booked almost all my vendors before booking her, but she did just what I needed her to do.

Cassie made the planning and day-of our wedding SO much easier!! We are so thankful that we had her to help us throughout the entire process. Anything we needed she was exceptionally responsive. She brought a full team the day of the wedding that we never even noticed, but obviously made everything run smoothly. So many things to consider while planning a wedding and Cassie helped us to remember all of the small details. Thank you!!

Hiring Cassie as our Wedding coordinator was the best decision we made during our planning process. Cassie took the stress and planning pressure off our shoulders and ran with it. Cassie is a true professional and she really knows what she is doing. If you are a new bride to be, I know it can be stressful and we want everything done NOW ... But I promise you that you can have faith in Cassie and turn it over to her and she will get it done ! There was a swim meet where our venue was and we could not access it until 3pm to set up for a reception that started 2 hours later at 5pm .. We showed up to our reception and it was like a showroom floor masterpiece. Everything was set up beautifully and perfectly. I swear if I didn't know any better I would have thought she had a magic wand !! Cassie took care of the smallest details that we would have never thought about if we were doing it ourselves. We had a perfect postcard wedding and reception. Our guests are still talking about how great everything was that day and it is because Cassie knows what she is doing and she helped make our wedding day more special and more extraordinary than we could have ever imagined. My expectations were exceeded above and beyond. Thank You Cassie for everything. We could not have done it without you !!
