Tony N. Sent on 11/13/2023Best Wedding Planner In Slo
Elyse and her team went above and beyond every step of our wedding journey. They worked with our budget, helped us craft the most amazing day based on our tastes, were available to us whenever we needed, and were just an overall pleasure to work with. She planned our dream wedding as she has many others. We used her for the full wedding planning services and it was worth every penny :) She knows ALL the vendors in the area and will connect you with the exact businesses you need for your special day. For anyone looking to have a wedding in the Slo area or anywhere else for that matter, you'll find no better option than Elyse!Elyse Events's reply:
Thank you SO MUCH, Tony! This review truly means the world to us. It was such a joy working with you and Irma, and even though I'm so excited for you guys, I'm so sad the Planning is over haha! I will miss our monthly Zoom meetings. Let's do one for funsies again soon! -

Talie B. Sent on 11/06/2023Highly recommend Elyse & team! Best wedding planners!!
There aren't even words to express how grateful we are for all that Elyse and her team did for us leading up to and on the most important day of our lies! Her and her team (especially Lauryn!) were incredibly helpful in making sure all the little pieces were in place, organized, and ready to go not just before the event but throughout the day-of also, arguably the most important part! Having a 'destination' wedding 6 hours away from where we live definitely could have been daunting but Elyse helped us feel at-ease knowing that nothing would slip through the cracks and everything would fall right into place - exactly what happened! I felt so relaxed all day in large part because I knew they had allll the logistics handled. We seriously cannot express how nice it was to not have to worry about anything and instead just get to enjoy the celebrations with our friends and fam.
It truly surpassed all of our wildest dreams and was so so beautiful thanks to Elyse's thoughtful and intentional design and hard work. From the table design, to the florals, to all the decorative details that Elyse and team set up, it was somehow even better than we ever could have even imagined leading up to it. We heard from sooo many guests after the wedding that it was the most beautiful wedding they've been to which was just the coolest!!
Throughout our planning process, Elyse was extremely helpful in providing vendor recommendations, helping us book all our design vendors, providing mock ups and design suggestions based on the inspiration pics I provided :) and reminding us which things we needed to tackle at each stage of the wedding planning process, which was the part I was most nervous about going into it. She helped us stay on track and ensure nothing was missed in prep for the big day.
We HIGHLY recommend Elyse and her team if you are looking for an organized, passionate and design-oriented wedding planner for your big day! Best decision we made!Elyse Events's reply:
OMG TALIE! Thank you so much for the SWEETEST review!!! I really appreciate all your kind words, and the time you took to write this! It was so awesome getting to work with you and Mike, and I’m SO HAPPY you had such an incredible experience! -

Kaitlin K. Sent on 06/25/2023My experience with Elyse was one of my wedding planning highlights
Elyse was a fabulous wedding planner and I could not recommend her and her team more! From my first email to my wedding day, she was responsive, extremely helpful, kind, and enthusiastic. I had the best time working with her and getting to know her as a person. You can tell she loves what she does and puts thought and care into every decision to helps you make. Wedding planners are supposed to make your experience easier for you, but Elyse goes above and beyond that. I mentioned to her I was having a hard time picking out bridesmaid dresses and she immediately sends me some options (one of which I ended up choosing!) I also gave her full reign over the cake decorations so she surprised me with a paper crane outline in icing - a symbol that is important to me and my heritage. The cake brought tears to my eyes and still does to this day when I think back on it. Huge thank you to Elyse and the rest of her team!!Elyse Events's reply:
Aww thank you so much, Kaitlin! This review means so much to us. We absolutely LOVED working with you and Bradfield and are so happy to hear you had an amazing wedding planning experience! :) -

Rachel Sent on 07/17/2023The BEST Wedding Planner in California!
Let me first start off by saying that I have known Elyse since 2014 and she has been my friend since the beginning of me and my now husband's relationship (she took our very first picture as a couple). We always joked that if she ever became a wedding planner, she would be ours whenever we got married in the future. Little did we know that she would become the professional, multi-tasking, and creative mastermind that she is today. Unlike some brides, I didn't go into our wedding with a very specific vision but I knew the colors and the general vibe we wanted. Elyse helped guide us with vendors, design, and everything in between during the planning process. It's very easy to plan a wedding when your wedding planner handles EVERYTHING (and I mean everything) and all you have to do is say yes or no to certain details. Elyse goes above and beyond for her couples - an example of that is for our escort display I said I wanted a champagne wall with the seating chart. She then hand drew an escort display with arches, acrylic glass, champagne wall, and flower boxes at the bottom and she made it come to life with all involved vendors. Even though my husband and I have been friends with Elyse for years, I know she befriends and loves all of the couples she works with and it's very obvious she loves what she does for a living. During the day of, everything went so seamlessly and if something did go wrong, we knew nothing about it because her priority is keeping the couple happy and blissfully unaware of any mishaps. We would recommend Elyse to anyone getting married because she is truly the best in the business and is willing to do what it takes to create beautiful weddings and the best memories.Elyse Events's reply:
OMG RACHEL! Excuse me while I go cry. This is the sweetest review ever! Thank you so much for your kind words, we really appreciate it. You know this means the world to me and my team. We were absolutely HONORED to plan yours and Travis's wedding with you. I'm so glad it was everything you dreamed of and more. We love you and can't wait for the vow renewal! ;) XOXO -

Elyse was hands downs worth every penny! She made the planning process smooth and easy. She helped me with every single detail and made sure that I had the wedding of my dreams! We didn't run into a single problem on our wedding day and if there was a problem we had no idea about it because Elyse and her team were there to take care of it! I couldn't recommend her enough! She is the sweetest, most reliable wedding planner you can have! Thank you for all your hard work!Elyse Events's reply:
Aww thank you so much, Mandi! This means so much to me and I really appreciate your kind words! I'm so happy you had such a great experience! :) -

My experience with Elyse was the best possible.
Elyse is by far the best wedding planner. She went above and beyond for my sons wedding and it was so stunning and absolutely perfect. Elyse and her team are so professional, approachable and respectful. Any and everyone that came into contact them were greeted with a smile and warm welcome.
I would highly recommend Elyse to anyone planning a wedding.

Aww thank you so much, Melissa! I really appreciate your kind words. I loved working with you, Claire, & Caleb! :) -

Elyse is very responsive and pays close attention to detail. Her vendor recommendations were amazing and totally made our wedding the best! I'm glad that I could text her and her team all my questions and concerns throughout the while process. It helped me feel much more comfortable with all of the vendor contracts and duties along the way. I felt so much relief the month before our wedding knowing we were in good hands. We had an amazing wedding and everything went very well thanks to Elyse, Gracie, and Bella!!Elyse Events's reply:
Aww thank you so much, Lauren! I really appreciate your kind words. I absolutely loved working with you, and I'm so happy you had such a great experience! :) -

Working with Elyse is always such a great joy! As a florist in the wedding industry, I have always admired her impeccable style and incredible eye for detail. Over the years working alongside her on many events, her upbeat attitude and professional manner always give me the utmost confidence necessary in her event planning abilities. From excellent and prompt communications, to wonderfully executed timelines, her organizational skills and clear visions allow us to always deliver polished stellar events together! Thank you, Elyse!Elyse Events's reply:

Elyse is the best of the best!
We got married in September 2021 and Elyse made my wedding dreams come true! Not only did she consider the entire wedding day and planning process in its entirety but she was so fun to work with. Thank you, Elyse!!Elyse Events's reply:
Aww thank you so much, Avrah! I really appreciate your sweet words. I loved working with you and Ian (obviously) and got so much joy out of seeing your wedding day come together! Love you! :) -

The Best There Is!
From the moment I spoke to Elyse on the phone, I knew she was the wedding planner for us! I just got all around good vibes from her calm but professional demeanor. SLO was a destination wedding for my husband and I, as we live in SD. I was intimidated at the thought of planning a destination wedding without seeing/meeting many vendors and materials, along with working full time. Elyse was our saving grace throughout the entire process. Her organization, vision, communication, positivity, and connections within the SLO area made the wedding planning process run SO smoothly! Elyse took my vision and brought it to life. Our wedding was more than we could have ever dreamed of and we owe it to Elyse and her amazing team. 🤍Elyse Events's reply:
Thank you so much, Lauren! It was so nice working with you and Kevin, and I'm so glad your wedding was everything you dreamed of! -

Christina Sent on 07/04/2021Incredible coordinator, even better person
Wow where do I even begin?! From day one Elyse went above and beyond to help make our wedding dreams a reality. She is a rockstar at communicating with vendors, organizing wedding timelines, managing setups and putting out last-minute "fires." Her wedding layouts and timelines were honestly works of art (they were so well done and so easy to read). On our wedding day, she helped create a ceremony and reception space more beautiful than we imagined and effortlessly handled every aspect of the day. We are 1000% certain things would not have turned out so well if it was not for Elyse.
Beyond her amazing work ethic, Elyse is also a wonderful human being. Her positive attitude and infectious spirit permeated throughout our wedding. She is so kind to other vendors and does everything she can to make everyone feel appreciated and valued.
Hiring Elyse was one of the best decisions my husband and I made throughout our wedding planning process. She is the best!Elyse Events's reply:
Omg christina! -
