Best decision I made as a bride!

Where do I even start? Rebecca and her team exceeded my expectations and truly made my wedding day a dream come true. During COVID times, we had everything working against us at one point but Rebecca and her team all showed up with smiles on their faces happy to help with whatever was needed. They paid close attention to detail and nothing was left out or forgotten. The girls at one point even got the party started doing the cha-cha slide on the dance floor (one of my favorite memories of the day). Rebecca also made my rose gold acrylic wedding invites which came out stunning! I had a vision that I was not sure would be able to be met but, once again, she exceeded my expectations. Hiring Rebecca and her team was the best decision I made during the wedding planning process. I would highly recommend her to any bride.

The Best Planner.

I truly cannot say enough incredible things about Rebecca and her amazing team. From the very beginning, they went above and beyond to bring our vision to life—and somehow made it even more beautiful than I ever could have imagined.

Every detail was handled with such care, precision, and creativity. Throughout the entire process, I felt completely supported and at ease knowing we were in the best hands. On the wedding day itself, everything flowed seamlessly. I didn’t have to worry about a single thing, which allowed me to fully be present and soak in every moment.

Their professionalism, organization, and genuine passion for what they do truly set them apart. Not only did they execute everything flawlessly, but they also made the entire experience joyful and stress-free.

If you are looking for someone who will treat your wedding like it’s the most important day in the world—because it is—look no further. I am endlessly grateful for everything they did to make our day absolutely perfect.

5 Stars for Rebecca Calagne


FIVE STAR review for the amazing Rebecca Calagne! There are not enough affirming adjectives to describe Rebecca in her wedding planner role. From beginning to end, she was timely, professional, communicative, experienced, creative, resourceful, connected, PATIENT, generous & overall... EXCELLENT!

When we were in the process of choosing a wedding planner, we spent a lot of time getting recommendations from friends and interviewing and pricing out various planners. We obviously wanted to choose a planner that had great executive and execution skills, but we also wanted someone that was creative and was a personality fit. We had some strong opinions and ideas, but also needed a lot of guidance and Rebecca managed all it all beautifully and with grace- we can't recommend her highly enough!

Wed like to highlight Rebecca's skills:

Communication- Rebecca is an excellent communicator and provided us with clear goals and weekly action items to complete throughout the year long engagement timeframe. She held us accountable to do our part, which made for a seamless process. She was extremely thoughtful of our temperament and tastes as a client and responds accordingly!

Creativity and guidance: we were starting with a blank slate and Rebecca helped us hone into our vision (because we were all over the place) and make it a reality, all while managing a budget. She created detailed vision boards for each design element that we considered and was incredibly helpful in guiding our various ideas. She was very personal and patient and pointed us in the right direction with finding vendors that would match our tastes. She provided great reassurance with all of our decisions, and if we had a question or need, she answered immediately.

Vendor relationships and Recommendations - Rebecca was super helpful with providing her vendor options that she already had working relationships with but was very open to our vendor contacts and comparing prices. Every vendor who has worked with Rebecca also has the utmost respect for her execution skills but also for her humble and thoughtful demeanor and professionalism. EVERY vendor loves working with her.

Timeline creation and execution- Rebecca created and incredibly detailed timeline document that covered every minute of the rehearsal and wedding. She communicated and executed the timeline seamlessly which made for a smooth and stress-free experience. She has a calming and in control presence and is responsive to every request and every need.

Rebecca goes above and beyond and has become a true respected friend in the process. She has a HUGE heart and is a strong leader. She wasn't just our wedding planner, she became family! We love her! We had the best wedding EVER!

Rebecca Calagna Events and Brianna are absolutely invaluable!

Hiring Rebecca Calagna Events was the best decision we made for my daughter’s wedding, and we were so lucky to have Brianna as our coordinator! From start to finish, Brianna and her team were incredibly organized, professional, and thoughtful. As the mother of the bride, I was able to enjoy the entire day without a single concern or worry - a true gift.

There was rain in the forecast for the outdoor ceremony, and I started to get nervous. When I reached out to Brianna, she had already contacted the vendors, arranged a Plan B, and reassured me that everything was under control. Thanks to her preparation, I knew we didn’t need to worry. In the end, the day was overcast with a little wind, which made for gorgeous pictures, and the sun even came out for the ceremony - it was perfect!

There was a moment in the bridal suite when champagne spilled down a bridesmaid’s dress. The team had it cleaned up immediately, leaving no stain, and the bride never even knew it happened. Their calm, proactive approach ensured that every potential hiccup was handled flawlessly.

When the wedding was over, Brianna and her team had everything packed up and ready to go. We literally just got in the car and left for the after-party without lifting a finger- it was incredible!

Even though the venue had its own coordinator, Brianna and her team went above and beyond. They worked seamlessly with the vendors, kept us on schedule, and handled every detail with perfection. This was hands down, the best money we spent during the entire planning process.

I cannot recommend Rebeca Calagna Events, and especially Brianna, enough! If you want peace of mind and a stress-free, beautifully executed wedding day, they are absolutely invaluable.

Best wedding planner of your life

This review is long overdue. Rebecca is an angel from heaven, I am sure of it. As a former Bridezilla (in recovery now), Rebecca handled all my crazy requests, "urgent" text messages, daily questions with such grace, kindness and professionalism. I pestered her for a whole year leading up to the wedding and she always had an answer to my never-ending questions. However, the best part about Rebecca was how she made us feel on our wedding weekend. We had a logistical nightmare of a wedding with events in different cities, themes, etc. It was also 105 degrees in Palm Springs that day. However, Rebecca never complained. She helped execute everything to our dreams and she just has such a calm energy about her that you can't help but calm down as well. I seriously cannot thank her enough. We are already thinking about the next big event Rebecca can help us plan just so we can spend time with her again! She is truly a gem, you NEED to book her as your wedding planner. She is incredible!!!

The best wedding planner and events team ever!!!

Honestly, Rebecca is a literal angel and her team is just as incredible. Throughout the wedding planning process I found myself grateful everyday to have Rebecca and RC Events in my corner. Rebecca worked diligently to make my visions come to life. Whenever I was stuck on a wedding related decision Rebecca knew how to read my mind and provide the perfect solution. You can really tell Rebecca cares about her clients, she felt like an extension of my family throughout the planning process. My only advice to any bride to be is “Hire Rebecca!”. My husband and I were able to be present the day of our wedding and that is all thanks to RC Events they were able to handle every last detail. We are so grateful to Rebecca and her team.

Rebecca Is Your Wedding Day Lifeline

We got engaged in November of 2022 and wanted to have a full-on wedding. We found ourselves struggling early on because we both work full time and didn’t have as much support in the planning. We had no idea what we were doing!
Rebecca came recommended through a coworker who had worked with her before and had great things to say. We met with her and decided to go with full planning package, which included both the preplanning and day-of coordination.
Throughout the planning, she accommodated our work schedules and met with us in the evenings to make progress. She was organized and detail oriented, which helped ease a great deal of our stress going into this process. She helped us on prioritization in the vendor selection. She has connections to amazing, vetted vendors, some of which we ended up choosing for our wedding day. She also worked closely with the vendors we selected that were outside of her initial recommendations.
Day-of, she had a full team with her, helping guide not only the members of the wedding party, but also the guests and vendors. They were really on top of everything and worked cohesively. They were quick to address any potential issues and made sure the day went by smoothly. As bride and groom, we were truly able to be immersed in and enjoy our special day thanks to Rebecca and her team. Our guests were impressed by how coordinated our wedding was and we received a lot of compliments on how enjoyable the whole experience was for them.
Rebecca is kind, professional, and experienced. Don’t wait any longer and just reach out to Rebecca! It’s the best planning decision you’ll make. She is truly passionate about wedding planning and making your wedding day truly special!

Reliable, professional, efficient, and organized! Such a lovely team.

Rebecca and her team went above and beyond our expectations! Our special day could not have gone smoothly without them. Rebecca was incredibly professional and easy to communicate with throughout the planning. Melissa and Megan ensured everything went smoothly and taken care of the day before and on the day of. This team is highly reliable, organized, efficient, and great to work with. Anyone who has worked with them know how amazing they are at what they do and that they genuinely care about their clients. My husband and I would like to thank you, again, from the bottom of our hearts, for all that you have done for us. We were able to enjoy our special day, stress-free, because of them!

The BEST wedding coordinator

I cannot recommend Rebecca and her team enough. As someone who works in the event industry, I knew I wanted a coordinator to handle the finishing touches and day of details so that I could relax (a bit) and enjoy the day. After an intro call I knew that Rebecca was going to be perfect and I was 100% right. Our wedding wasn't huge and Rebecca came with a small army of professionals. Her team kept us on the timeline and the day was flawless. They setup the reception, took photos for us so we'd have a few right away, worked with all our vendors, and even helped one of our guests setup a special surprise performance with the DJ which ended up being one of my favorite parts of the day. Rebecca's experience, knowledge, and kindness make her the best in the business.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
