    Yes, yes, yes!

    You should absolutely work with Creative Happens! We had the pleasure of working with Dan for our Palm Springs wedding recently, and couldn't be happier with our choice. He helped us through the final months of planning by putting together the schedule of our day, connecting with our vendors, and of course being present and extremely helpful one the big day.

    That day, he predicted our needs before we even thought of them and helped troubleshoot issues that arose (even quickly finding me a bandage when I cut myself on the needle my husband's boutonnière!). Super professional, super thoughtful...all in all, an excellent choice!

    Helpful, knowledgeable, professional

    We had a great experience working with Daniel to help plan our wedding in Long Beach in September of 2023.

    We booked him about six months before our date and he jumped right in to start getting details lined up for the big day. He was very responsive to our questions throughout the planning process and was able to offer both good advice and connections to other quality professionals (like bartenders).

    Daniel really shone as our day of coordinator. He had created a detailed timeline that helped us maximize our time on the big day and worked with our other vendors to ensure they knew how everything fit together. He checked in with us several times to see how we were doing but was also able to handle a lot of things for us so that we could spend more time with our guests and enjoying our own wedding.

    Would 100% recommend!!!

    Thank you Dan!!

    My husband and I think back so fondly on our wedding, and our vendors played a huge role in the overall success of the day. Creative happens Events were total champions, and we so appreciate all that you did. We honestly do not know what more you could have done to make the day go more smoothly than it did, we feel very fortunate!!

    Professional service. Great results!

    No complaints whatsoever! Chris and Dan were the ones that we worked with most closely. They were very professional in their preparation, communication, and execution, which made for a wonderful and impeccably-smooth wedding day!

    Easy Peasy!

    Our experience with Creative Happens was perfect. They video chatted with us twice before the big day to talk things out and organize our thoughts and gave us an incredibly detailed spreadsheet to keep track of everything. On the day, our coordinator Klaudia was so helpful and on top of it, while keeping her cool. She made us feel so comfortable and supported on the day. Thank you so much you guys!!!

    The best wedding planner we could ask for!

    Working with Daniel and the Creative Happens team was a wonderful experience. Planning a wedding can be soooo stressful, but Dan dedicated his time and efforts to making the process low stress and even enjoyable. He is professional, kind, dedicated and most importantly a genuinely great human being. I highly recommend choosing him and Creative Happens for planning your wedding!

    Best choice

    To say that Daniel was a godsend is an understatement. Our wedding day, and the many weeks leading up to it, where a breeze with Daniel at our side. He was attentive, timely, great communication, amazing input with ideas and suggestions and on top of everything we threw at him. Not only his services, but we rented a lot of decor items through him which made life so much easier. I HIGHLY recommend hiring Creative Designs for all wedding needs! You, just like I, will not regret!

    Incredible

    Dan was our day of coordinator for our 130+ person wedding at the Hyatt Regency Indian Wells. An absolute dream to work with and we couldn’t have been happier with the day. We couldn’t have done it with him. Everything was HANDLED. It’s was smooth, calm and such a pleasure. THANK YOU, DAN AND TEAM!!

    Thank you Dan, Chris, and Creative Happens!

    Cannot say great enough things about Creative Happens, Dan, and Chris! Dan was so kind, professional, and helped us from the beginning in planning a destination wedding at a private venue, finding the best vendors, and answering every question we had! The best part of the planning process- the online workbook Dan creates. Such an easy way to see where things are at in the planning process and an easy way to communicate with Dan and his team. Chris was also incredibly friendly, answered all of our wedding questions, and was fantastic supporting us both for our rehearsal and day of with Dan. We are so thankful to Creative Happens for all their help, and strongly recommend them for planning any event.

    Couldn't be Happier

    We only have glowing reviews for Creative Happens. Dan and his team were seamless in every way. They were on top of everything from ensuring small but meaningful ceremony details, mitigating conversations with some unruly (ugh!) vendors, setting up the décor even lovelier than we could have imagined, and keeping everything on track, professional and beautiful. Their confidence and wedding experience was evident. We all felt reassured and calm with Creative Happens as they were indeed the magicians making sure our day was magical, which it was! Dan and his team are worth the investment in every way. We would recommend Creative Happens to anyone that needs an utmost wedding coordinator for their special day. You can trust your special day in their talented hands!

    HIGHLY recommend Creative Happens

    We had an absolutely phenomenal experience with Creative Happens. We worked with Dan from day one of our wedding planning, and he made things so smooth and easy. He kept all decisions moving, had absolutely amazing vendor contacts, and had really beautiful and fun ideas on decor that felt very us. He also did a really good job working within our budget.

    The day of was honestly the best day of our lives, and was 100% perfect (which is to say, we *know* there must have been some unexpected challenges crop up but the Creative Happens team handled everything so quickly and seamlessly that my husband I had no idea). We also felt that Dan just genuinely cared about us; he made sure to save us various desserts and remind us that we should take a break to eat or switch to a cold glass of champagne before toasts. It was like having another best man/maid of honor (which really let our wedding parties relax and enjoy the night).

    We HIGHLY recommend Creative Happens.

    You will regret not choosing Creative Happens

    Do it. If you are looking for any sort of event coordinator and you see this, immediately book them.

    We booked Creative Happens for our wedding in June and it would not have been a better experience. If you want someone you can immediately trust and feel completely confident in, you've found the company. Our event coordinator was Chris and it couldn't have been in better hands. From our first phone call, our follow up calls/emails, to our rehearsal and to day-of - everything went absolutely perfect.
    We had an initial phone call with Chris and immediately after the phone call Aaron & I knew we found our coordinator. Extremely professional, but also his personality shines and we felt as if we found a new friend.
    Our initial planning phone call was with Jessica and she was also professional, extremely organized and helpful and just kept building our confidence in this company.
    Any questions we had prior to the wedding were answered within 10 minutes, if not within the same minute (in a text); it was incredible to feel so prioritized even knowing how many other weddings/events they are planning at the same time.
    Day of - Chris organized everything perfectly, and it was amazing to see how closely we stuck to our time schedule without ever feeling rushed or anything. His communication skills to myself, my now-husband, and everybody else was so welcoming and eased any stresses/nerves I had.
    Normally I'm an "always trying to host/help" person, but that day I knew it was in the right hands.

    I could go on for so much longer, but all you really need to know is if you're reading this: BOOK THEM NOW.

    Fantastic and Affordable Wedding Planning Company

    affordable event planning for our Santa Monica wedding was a huge concern for my husband and i, which is what initially drew us in to Creative Happens. you cannot get a better price in this area nor a better team. little did we know that they would handle quite literally EVERY aspect of our big day that makes them worthy of deserving so much more. they handled every detail, every email thread, every task we needed, like decaling our tedious seating chart mirror with 100 names, every shipment of decor they received, EVERYTHING. Dan was the most calm and collected human ever. him and his team are as creative as their name makes them out to be, were beyond professional, confident, and got shit done. They know what they're doing and how to do it. Could not recommend them more. 11 out of 10 recommend.

    A great experience!

    The Creative Happens Team was extremely professional and great to work with from the very first day! We got the month of/day of coordinating package and it was very affordable for what you get out of it! Jessica is the main coordinator who helps you create your timeline and our day of coordinators were Kayla and Tenyada. They were both so sweet and Kayla did a great job of trying to keep us on schedule but in a gentle way that didn't stress me out too much. Everything that I had planned and asked for happened exactly the way I had hoped it would so I have no complaints!
    Thanks to the Creative Happens Team and our day was truly magical and exactly how we had hoped it would be. We are over the moon!

    Amazing value, great quality!

    Jessica was fantastic! She helped make our 30-person micro-wedding absolutely wonderful by stepping in wherever needed. She is prompt, professional, and has an eye for detail. Upon meeting her we felt confident that she would get the job done and she did, with flying colors. She even helped with things that were beyond the scope of general day of coordinator duties—like pressing play on our Spotify playlist and clearing plates from tables after dinner. She was swift in her tear down—it happened so fast I didn’t even realize she’d been chipping away at things. And that allowed us to make it out of the venue in time before our rental ended. Thank you so much Jessica and Dan for your amazing service!

    Creative Happens is AMAZING! Hire them!!

    As someone who used to do event planning, I have high expectations when it comes to handing over the reigns to someone else, especially for our wedding day. However, Creative Happens was absolutely out of this world in their execution, responsiveness, and overall partnership throughout the coordination process of our wedding. Jessica took over about a month before the wedding, and was extremely organized & thoughtful, and was there for any question or ask we had along the way. The entire team at Creative Happens was an absolute joy to work with, and there is no one else I would rather have worked with for the most special moment of our lives. Thank you, thank you to the entire team at Creative Happens.

    Dan and his team were amazing!! They made our lives a million times less stressful. Dan helped bring our vision to life and our day couldn’t have been more perfect. His energy the day of the wedding was very calming and helped us to feel stress free. I recommend him and his team to every couple out there!! ❤️

    Dan made it happen!

    Dan was a pleasure to work with! I originally booked him to plan my wedding for April 2021, but when it was clear to me that postponing would need to happen, he was on the ball with getting all the vendors and venue sorted and moved to our new date. He was very responsive to any questions or concerns I had leading up to the wedding, over text and email. And our day turned out beautifully! Our guests raved about how much fun they had and how beautiful the reception was. I just gave what decorations I had to Dan, and his team made the reception look better than I could have imagined. Thank you, Dan and the Creative Happens team for making our day memorable and smooth!

    Amazing wedding coordinators

    The Creative Happens team helped us as our day-of coordinators. They were GREAT! We really appreciated the ease with which we were able to give them the information about everything that had been planned so far, and how well they executed everything on the day of. Everything went much smoother than we could have imagined. They were great about keeping us updated if/when things shifted a little, and keeping us calm about those changes. We really appreciate the positivity and organization. Definitely recommend hiring Creative Happens for your big day!

    Best Decision to Hire Creative Happens

    I always knew I’d need a wedding planner, and I’m so glad I found Dan and his team. I need the gentle nudges to keep things moving and on the timeline. And we’ve gotten great recommendations for all the necessary vendors. We’ve now postponed our wedding until next year thanks to COVID! Can’t wait to see how it all comes together next year!

    Professional, dependable, best planner

    Dan is one of the most hard working person I’ve ever met. Not that this means you should demand and expect a reply right away, but Dan even gets back to me at 10 pm at night sometimes just to get things done. He really cares about his clients and business. In addition, he recommends great vendors within reasonable price that should fit most budgets. Dan and the vendors he recommended made our wedding day memorable and beautiful! We couldn’t see the venue in person until the day of, and Dan was able to coordinate with just Pinterest photos and the whole setting came out beautiful, and photogenic, just like the Pinterest photos we had in mind but fits the venue and our style elegantly. I knew this was a challenge going in, but hiring Dan is one of the most important decisions I’ve ever made. Thank you Dan for making our big day stress free. Hiring a planner should def be top of your list when I panning a wedding, you’ll feel less stressed, a professional like Dan would take care of most things that you haven’t even thought of and more! Plus, Dan’s pricing is more than fair based on what he does compared to others and he does a phenomenal job. We will def hire him again for future events. Thank you Dan, we wish you nothing but success because you deserve it!

    The BEST Coordinator I Could’ve Asked For

    My husband and I haven’t stopped talking about how amazing Chris was at our wedding. He wasn’t just great at his job but he was also one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met. He made my day soooo much more special than I could’ve ever imagined. He helped make the day flow so nicely without being super strict on the timeline. But I know if I wanted to stick with the exact timeline he would’ve made that happen too. He helped with way more than I thought he would. His assistant was amazing as well. I’m sure the entire creative happens team is amazing so you will not regret hiring them. I wish we could’ve gotten a picture together Chris! My husband and I wish you the best and are super thankful to have met you!

    Creative Happens's reply:

    Thank you for the amazing review, Lorena! It was a pleasure working with you and Julian for your big day, and we'd love to wish you all the best! Thank you again for choosing to have us as a part of your big day.

    Perfect Creative Collaboration

    We had the great pleasure of working with Daniel and his team. We all know there are so many details to getting everything "just right" on the day of the Wedding. Daniel was wonderful to work with and brought everyone together to create a perfect outcome for the Bride and Groom. I would give them 10 stars if possible.
