1000% Recommend KB Events!

We interviewed a lot of wedding planners before hiring Katie and KB Events- while there are other good ones out there, I cannot imagine a better experience than what we had with Katie, Adam, and the KB Events team. We always say that it was 100% the best decision to work with them, second only to saying I do!

We had a large wedding (300+ invites, 250 guests) and combining of cultures, and Katie was available and helpful with every question we threw at her as we walked through the process together. We still hear from our guests all the time that our wedding was the best wedding they've ever been to, and that is in large part due to the work Katie & Adam put in behind the scenes to make everything feel seamless and cohesive. They care and notice every detail and we truly cannot say enough good things about our experience. They act with integrity and warm professionalism, and we are just so so thankful for their huge role in our big day!

Amazing Halloween Wedding!

My husband and I were married on Halloween of 2025. While we live in Los Angeles we fell in love with the Santa Barbara area for our venue and could not have been happier with our choice to go with KB Events. Our planner Hannah was approachable, incredibly friendly, and professional every step of the way towards the wedding date. We always felt taken care of and that everything that had to be organized with vendors and our own personal check list was expertly handled. It was therefore no surprise that on the day of the wedding every little thing went as smoothly as possible. It was a dream day for us both thanks to Hannah and her team. We could not recommend them enough!

Cannot recommend more!

We worked with Hannah at KB events on our wedding for 15 months, and it was a true pleasure. She is incredibly organized and thoughtful, and always knew how to guide me in the planning process without being overbearing. Our actual wedding day went off without a hitch. It's hard for me to let go of control, but I trusted Hannah and her team to carry out our plans seemlessly, and they did. I cannot recommend Hannah and team more highly!

The actual best planner team!

So blessed to have been able to work with the incredible husband and wife team that is Katie and Adam. From our first call it was a match. Their style and system is top notch and so easy to work with. They have a strong network and great relationships which allowed me to have zero stress going into the big day. Every question had a plan, a timeline, and a back up which matched my event planning mindset. I wish we could do it again just to have the honor of the KB team to back us up and make our special day as stress free and perfect as possible. Thank you!

5 Stars for Hannah

Working with Hannah from KB Events was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! From the very beginning, she brought such calm energy, professionalism, and expertise to the entire planning process. She made everything feel organized, seamless, and stress-free. We always felt like we were in the best hands.

One of the moments that stands out most was during our wedding speeches, when a private home behind our venue happened to be hosting a quinceañera, complete with a full high school marching band (tuba and all!). Our venue said this had never happened in over a decade of weddings, and just as that moment of panic set in, Hannah stepped in with total calmness and confidence. Within minutes, she had seamlessly ushered in our guests who were sitting outside to inside, turning it into a more intimate, cozy setting for everyone, and it ended up being even more special for our speeches and first dances. She coordinated with the hotel staff so quickly and had everything back in motion, by the time our DJ started playing again, the doors reopened and we couldn’t hear the high school band at all. It’s now a funny story we’ll always laugh about, but in the moment, it was Hannah’s grace, quick thinking, and professionalism that completely saved the day. She truly handled it with such urgency and ease that only a true expert could.

Our wedding day was everything we dreamed of and more, and we owe so much of that to Hannah. She’s talented, kind, and genuinely cares about her couples. We can’t recommend her highly enough! — Madison & Brandon

Truly the Best Decision We Made

Working with KB Events for our partial planning package was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. The level of service we received went far beyond what we expected. We felt completely taken care of every step of the way, and looking back, we can’t imagine going through the process without them. Hannah was an absolute superstar. Truly the best part of the entire planning experience. From our very first call, through every email, meeting, rehearsal, wedding day, and even the follow-up afterward, she was consistently clear, direct, personable, and so professional. She’s incredibly organized, knowledgeable about everything Santa Barbara weddings, and has such a calm, confident energy that instantly puts you at ease. Every step of the process felt smooth, thoughtful, and well-communicated. We always knew what to expect and felt fully supported, which made planning feel enjoyable instead of stressful. On the day of, everything ran seamlessly thanks to her and her amazing team. We were able to be fully present and soak up every moment, knowing that everything behind the scenes was being handled perfectly. The end result was more beautiful and meaningful than we could have dreamed of. It was clear throughout that Hannah truly cared about us, not just as clients, but as people, and that personal touch meant the world. If you’re getting married in Santa Barbara, we couldn’t recommend KB Events more highly. Their pricing is very reasonable for the level of service, professionalism, and peace of mind they provide. We’re endlessly grateful for everything Hannah did to bring our vision to life and to make the entire experience so joyful from start to finish.

Hannah and the KB Events team are the best!

Hiring Hannah was priceless. She took care of everything with a smile and made sure that our day went off with a hitch. Hands down the best money spent on our wedding, we could not recommend her enough! Truly no notes. Our guests were sad to hear she only does Santa Barbara area or she would’ve had many new clients! We will miss working with Hannah she made our day perfect

Making Our Wedding a Dream Come True

From the very beginning, working with KB Events was everything we could’ve hoped for—and so much more. Planning a destination wedding could have easily felt overwhelming, but Katie and Adam made the entire process feel calm, intentional, and genuinely exciting. They created space for my now-husband and I to be fully present on our wedding day, without a single worry—and that’s a gift we’ll never forget.
They listened with care, helped us find our dream venue, guided us through vendor selection, answered every single one of our (many!) questions, and brought our vision to life at Machias Meadows in the most beautiful way. Every detail felt like us—from the layout to the flow of the day—and it was clear how much heart and pride they poured into making it all happen.
From vendor coordination to timeline flow, everything was handled with such precision and warmth. Adam even jumped in to help build the floral arch, which speaks volumes about their dedication and hands-on support. What stood out most was how they always seemed one step ahead all week and weekend, allowing us to truly relax and soak in every moment with our loved ones. The entire day felt calm, joyful, full of fun, and a true dream come true—exactly what we had hoped for.
We’re so deeply grateful to have had KB Events by our side for such a meaningful chapter in our lives. Their kindness, expertise, and attention to every detail made our wedding feel like a true reflection of us and the love we share. I cannot recommend them enough. KB Events didn’t just plan and execute our wedding—they crafted memories that will live in our hearts forever. They have a beautiful gift for turning dreams into reality, and we feel so lucky to have experienced that firsthand, and hope others do too!

the absolute best!

We’re so grateful we had Katie and Adam as our wedding planners. From day one, they were warm, kind, and clearly knew their stuff. And as a husband-and-wife team, they brought such a great energy. We wanted to plan many details ourselves, and they struck the perfect balance, giving us space while stepping in with great ideas, organization, and guidance when needed. They created a vision board that nailed our colors and style, kept us on track with checklists, and handled all vendor communication. They were always quick to respond and made the process calm and stress-free. On our wedding day, everything ran perfectly on time and felt effortless. Our guests even commented on how smooth it was. They went above and beyond, from bringing little things we forgot to literally driving us to our hotel after the ceremony. If you want planners who are organized, creative, and genuinely invested in making your wedding special, we can’t recommend KB enough.
