We worked with Mariah for our wedding this past June, she was hands down one of the best investments we made going into our special day 🙌

One of the things that set Mariah apart from other planners we talked to is her connection to the Big Sur/Carmel/Monterey area. She is deeply rooted in the community and is able to give expert recommendations on venues and vendors. We were planning our wedding from Los Angeles so we really looked to Mariah for guidance.

She also brings a sense of calm to planning a wedding. We always looked forward to our planning calls, and no issue was too big for her to tackle. During our very first phone call, Mariah got right down to business helping us coordinate guest lodging and transportation, an issue that we had been stuck on for weeks! She made the wedding day itself completely relaxing and enjoyable - Mariah took care of every last detail so we were able to arrive with our families and not think about any of the coordination details.

Another thing that we loved about working with Mariah is that she really understood our vision and made sure that every last detail was perfect. One of our favorite memories of the day was walking into the venue and seeing our dreams brought to life ❤️ 

I highly recommend working with Mariah, and if you’re on the fence about a coordinator, do it and pick her!

Mariah was the day-of coordinator for our mid-May Big Sur wedding, and we wish we could have worked together for longer! She was an incredibly calming presence from the moment we met her during our ceremony rehearsal, and seamlessly took on multiple responsibilities over the course of our wedding day to make sure that we didn’t have to worry about anything but enjoying ourselves. She handled everything from playlist switching to heating up some items for our dessert bar, all while setting up the event, keeping the day’s schedule on track, and coordinating all our vendors and guests to follow our set timeline. Our wedding day was genuinely stress-free thanks to her expertise, and we were able to fully enjoy our time with our loved ones.

She also has incredible relationships with several vendors in Big Sur - she knew our shuttle driver, caterer, venue groundskeeper, and bartender, and clearly was treated as a trusted partner by all of them. It added an extra element of community to the day which was lovely to experience.

And bonus: she gives off such a warm, kind energy. Even though we had only really worked together for a day and a half, she texted us the morning after our wedding to ensure that everything had gone well after she and the other vendors had left for the night.

Overall, I highly recommend Mariah for any event planning or coordination needs! If we ever plan another event in the Big Sur area, she’ll be our first call.

My fiancé and I were planning a destination wedding to Big Sur, California. I thought it'd be easy, as we were planning a small wedding, but anxiety began to build quickly as the to-do list began to grow. I decided that we needed to hire a wedding planner. From the first moment of talking to Mariah, all worries disappeared. For each detail, she knew multiple people and multiple directions that could be taken. She was such a breeze to communicate with on a regular basis. Her personality was happy and positive. She was respectful of cost by presenting multiple options with varying monetary ranges. She clearly had our best interests in mind. If you hire Mariah, I am certain that the day of your wedding is going to be smooth, happy, and beautiful - highly due to her work.
