    A dream wedding planner!!!!

    As former event and production professionals, we had high expectations and were very diligent in our wedding planner search- after just one meeting with Kim, we knew we had found the one!! She made it so easy to immediately bond and connect and we instantly felt like we could fully trust her to execute our dream wedding! Kim completely understood us and our wants and needs and she made it all happen! She kept us calm when we got stressed and she kept us smiling through the whole process. Not only did we love working with her, but all our other vendors went out of their way to share how fantastic she was to work with!! For the most fun, stress-free wedding experience, please hire Kim and her team- they will make every dream and vision you have come to life PERFECTLY and she'll keep it fun along the way. A great planner is one of the most important aspects of making sure your day goes just as you want, and Kim is ABSOLUTELY the very best!!!

    Fabulous Wedding planner

    We cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible support and expertise provided by Kim & her team! From the moment we met, she was dedicated to making our dream wedding a reality, and she far exceeded our expectations every step of the way. Kim's experience in the industry and connections to other vendors was very helpful through out the planning process. She was always available to answer our questions, offer guidance, and provide support whenever we needed it. She made the wedding planning process enjoyable and stress free!

    Kim and her team were wonderful!

    Kim was our coordinator for our wedding, and her services started the minute we booked her. She was incredibly communicative and helpful, providing guidance to all the questions I had. With her help, we were able to save on rentals and found an amazing DJ. She also handled a lot of communication with us and the venue – which was helpful.

    On wedding day, Kim was amazing! She was calm, helpful, on top of it, and had our best intentions at heart. I truly felt like a guest at my own wedding, which was incredible. Would definitely recommend Kim and the Ebeling Events team.

    Kim was sheer perfection!

    I couldn't have done this without Kim. She was incredibly helpful with anything I needed and made my day come together with the most confidence and professionalism, all while feeling as if a very good friend was by my side. I will actually miss her after leaning on her for many months and highly recommend Kim and her team to anyone looking for a wedding planner or coordinator.

    A perfect experience!

    I can't write enough about Kim and her team - we hired Kim for month-of coordination, but she was available throughout the entire planning process for questions I had and suggestions, making planning our wedding a seamless process. I was nervous heading into planning a wedding based on friends' past experiences, but I couldn't believe how easy things seemed and I owe so much of that to Kim's guidance and execution. On the day, Kim and her team handled absolutely everything and I felt so comfortable just handing the reins over to her knowing that she had everything under control. She also blended seamlessly with our guests - they absolutely loved chatting and having fun with her the whole night!

    I would recommend Kim and her team a thousand times over. Thank you for everything!

    Kim & her team were invaluable for an insanely hectic several weeks

    We heard about Kim's company when she was hired for our close friend's wedding (Los Angeles) and we loved the work she did so we went with her for our own event (Orange County). My wife and I were married in the summer of 2023 in the midst of a bunch of hectic non-wedding circumstances (e.g. new jobs, moving). Kim and her team were invaluable during this time. She was a consummate professional, available to answer our every question, easy to talk to, and always had useful advice both for executing our vision as well as avoiding problems/pitfalls that we hadn't foreseen. Our event had approximately 150 guests and while a bunch of things came up last minute (e.g. a vendor's car broke down en route, problem with the arch) with their help everything was taken care of by the time the event was scheduled to start and everything went off without a hitch.

    Ebeling Events

    Kim Ebeling, of Ebeling Events, was very communicative, and gave solid advice all along the wedding planning process. Since we started the process a bit on the early side she was gracious and patient from the very start. These attributes are very necessary when dealing the the public during an emotional moment in ones’ life. Not all planners/coordinators have these traits. Katie, Kim's assistant, who was by our side during cocktail hour/reception couldn't have been more accommodating. 100% would recommend Ebeling Events to those who are planning to get married, engaged, or just a celebratory party!!!!!!

    Always one step ahead!

    Kim is incredible and extremely talented at her job! We worked with her for over a year (virtually!), planning our micro wedding in Carmel, CA. We put all of our trust in her recommendations, as we didn't meet or see anything in person before our wedding day. She surpassed expectations!
    Kim was always one step ahead of us, the vendor team, etc., and planned everything to the very last minute. I would 100% do this process again with Kim - she made our wedding dreams come true! Also, she's an incredible sommelier :)

    Ebeling Events's reply:

    Hi Mary,

    It was an honor and privilege to serve you, Geoffrey and your guests. Your wedding turned out so beautiful and I wish we could do it all again. Thank you for trusting me throughout the planning process, providing feedback along the way that gave us the structure to create an ultimately amazing wedding celebration.

    We wish you the very best!!!

    XOXO, Kim

    Malibu Proposal

    Kim was a pleasure to work with, she sits down and meets with you to go over all the logistics. I never felt nervous or unprepared with Kim, she will take care of you and I strongly recommended her.

    Kim Works Wonders!

    Kim helped us make our elopement magical. She was very professional, always made sure we got what we wanted in our price range. During our initial talk, I didn't have any idea about what kind of ceremony I wanted. I only mentioned "fall colors" and she just somehow knew what I imagined in my head and made it real. On our wedding day, the weather was so horrible that the roads were closed but she found a back up place -at the last minute- closeby to make our ceremony possible, and that place was amazing as well! All of the vendors she works with have been tasteful too, we were complimented on all of our choices - decoration, cake, location, bouquet, photography - by our guests, and we couldn't have arranged them without the help of Kim. I am forever grateful and I would recommend her to anyone who wishes to organize any event in Malibu. On top of all that, she is very friendly!

    Responsive and helpful wedding planner

    Kim is one of the more responsive individuals in the wedding business! From the initial consultation I knew she was someone who is on it, has of a ton wedding planning experience, and amazing to work with. Highly recommend if you are getting married or planning an event and need someone with good design vision and fast responsiveness!

    Hi Jennie,

    Most Valuable Player

    Kim and her team were absolutely the MVPs at our wedding! Kim is such an awesome person, and she has nothing but awesome people that she works with. Her and her team were so kind and attentive to us and our guests at our wedding. We truly couldn't have asked for a better coordinator. Kim was much more than just a day of coordinator as well, as she helped us along the way to ensure we had all of our ducks in a row weeks before the wedding. Once it came time for the big day, we really had everything figured out and ready to go, a big portion of that was because of her help! I would 100% recommend anyone looking for a coordinator to reach out to Ebeling Events, as Kim and her team truly made our lives so much easier.

    Ebeling Events's reply:

    Hana, Thanks for the kind words. It was my pleasure to work with you. We appreciated seeing everything come together and what a fun wedding!
    XOXO Kim

    Kim the best wedding planner ever!

    I would have lost my mind without Kim! I had NO IDEA how stressful a wedding could be and really I don’t think I ever will since she carried all thee right the entire time! We planned this out for 6 months straight and every little thing was carefully chosen and taken care of. She gave me options form A-Z for decor, Dj’s, flowers, cake, venues literally everything! I was able to have the time of my life on my wedding day because she was so diligent and consistent through the entire process! I was traveling the month before the wedding and she still pushed everything through and secured all the fine details that we needed for the perfect wedding! As far as the day of I worried about nothing! She helped me with my dress, my changes, my feet and shoes, was constantly helping everyone and managed the time so wisely. There were no hiccups, no issues, it was smooth sailing the entire time. I got to take pictures, eat, dance, and cry. All that I wanted to do I did and I didn’t miss a beat because of her! I can’t thank her enough for creating the ever day of my life that I will remember for ever!

    Ebeling Events's reply:

    Alex, It was such a pleasure working with you. You are such an amazing person, and we were honored to ensure everything came together beautifully for you. I'm not supposed to pick favorites, but your wedding is at the top! Can we do it again?
    XOXO, Kim

    Ebeling Events Knocked My Beach Wedding Out of the Park!!!!!!

    Kim Ebeling and her team at Ebeling Events made our wedding beyond special!!! I am so glad I found her, and I highly recommend her, especially if you plan to have a Malibu beach wedding! Kim helped transform a public state park beach into our own luxrious, tropical resort! No detail was overlooked. My guests are still raving about her attention to detail with the cermony and reception. She was an excellent communicator, and she recommended and managed a fantastic vendor team. I did not worry for one second during the planning process. Kim is the best!

    Ebeling Events's reply:

    Celia it was an absolute honor to work with you and help bring the vision of a beach retreat / beachside resort to life. On a beach that only had fire pits and personal meaning, we brought it all in and built it. Wow! I’m proud to have done this in a way that pleased you and allowed you to enjoy every moment of your wedding day. Congratulations!

    Kim and Her Team Are Amazing

    Kim was absolutely amazing from the beginning! She was always super helpful throughout the wedding planning process and was always quick to respond whenever we had questions. As wedding day approach she and her team helped give us the ease of mind and stress relief we needed. The wedding day couldn’t have been better or smoother and I don’t think we couldn’t have done it without her and her team. :)

    Ebeling Events's reply:

    Sarah,
    It was such a pleasure working with you & Jordan. Your family and friends were lovely and you deserve all the happiness. Our team is pleased everything went so well at The Adamson House on your wedding day. Best wishes on your new adventure as a married couple! XOXO Kim

    Great wedding planner

    Overall, we are very pleased with how Kim Ebeling/Ebeling Events helped us put together a wonderful wedding. Kim's knowledge of Malibu area, keeping us on track and exceptional network of vendors helped make us feel at ease throughout the wedding planning process. Kim is very experienced in wedding planning and is an all around lovely person. Any issues that arose Kim was very responsive and supportive in resolving. Although the wedding day ended up being a little hectic, we were able to focus on each other knowing coordinating the activities was in good hands. We recommend Ebeling events.

    Kim is the best

    Kim did the most amazing job planning and coordinating my wedding. Throughout the whole process she always kept me calm and confident and took all the stress off my plate. She found me the most amazing vendors who helped her pull off the perfect fairytale night. Everyone has been nonstop raving about her and her team since the wedding. Every vendor throughout the planning process kept telling me not to worry and that I’m in the best hands with Kim, and they were right :) Can’t thank her or recommend her enough!!

    Wonderful!

    We hired Kim to be our coordinator for the day and had such a good experience with her that we also hired her as our officiant. She listened to what we wanted and offered great advice along the way. Kim and her team went above and beyond to help move flowers and decorations to different areas when needed. They made sure everything looked beautiful and ran smoothly. Highly recommend!

    No Stress Wedding

    We hired Kim & her team to coordinate our daughter's wedding in October. That was the best decision we could've made! We had the wedding in our backyard with 65 guests and Kim helped us pull it together perfectly.
    As mother of the bride, I was so happy to have Kim at the helm. She is not only a polished professional at her craft but she's also an easy going, kind-hearted and fun-loving person who pours herself into all the details of your special day. Her communication is flawless and her amazing organizational skills keeps everything on the right track. Save yourself headache and stress by hiring her for your wedding. Kim is THE BEST.

    Thank you so much, Lisa! We LOVED working with you and cannot wait to help with your son's wedding this year in 2022! XOXO

    Kim was an excellent coordinator!

    Kim was an excellent coordinator! She came on pretty late into the process as our prior coordinator cancelled on us, but she got dialed in immediately. She asked all good questions to get caught up and also ones we had not thought through yet. She had recommendations based on experience that were super helpful. She was super organized and nice! She even jumped into the pool to grab a family member's phone they had dropped. 10/10 stars!

    Ebeling Events's reply:

    Tom - it was such a pleasure to jump in and help you. Your wedding was beautiful and I am glad we could assist. And I need that video of me fishing out the phone. I almost forgot about that! Thanks for the kind words!

    Great experience working with Kim!

    Kim is wonderful! She is organized, professional and experienced. She really prioritizes your goals for your special day and pays close attention to detail. We had the most fun at our wedding and can thank Kim for helping make that happen! Highly recommend!

    Cait,
    Thank you for the kind words. I loved helping you & Matt pull off a super fun party including your fur babies! Even though it was postponed twice, you finally got the wedding you deserved.
    XOXO
    Kim

    Execution and attention to detail

    Kim was everything we could ask for in a wedding planner. She was on top of everything and on the day of the wedding and before. We were not worried about logistics, crises, or family. It all just worked. For context, our wedding venue was not in a traditional venue nor are we "easy" clients to please -- we care a great deal about detail and we have high expectations of project managers. Of course, it was not luck that pleased us or prevailed under fire. Rather, it was Kim's preparation and execution in the heat of the moment that brought our dream wedding to fruition.
