Shannon C. Sent on 10/05/2023You NEED Katy on your wedding day!
Katy came highly recommended by our venue, Calipaso, where she has worked many times and we hired her as our month of coordinator. She was extremely helpful putting us in contact with other local vendors in the area. Throughout the planning process, any time I had a question (no matter how random) she would always have an answer for me. I was also very impressed with her quick email response time! The day of our wedding I had complete confidence and peace of mind that Katy would execute my vision and handle every small detail so that we could enjoy the day. I cannot recommend her enough- she is organized, kind, patient, helpful and understanding. Hire her immediately!Paso WeddingSmith's reply:
Thank you Shannon! A BIG congratulations on a stunning wedding! It was a delight working with you. Much Love. -

I couldn’t have planned our destination wedding so perfectly without the help of Katy Smith! Her recommendations for all our vendors were excellent. Katy responded to my emails and texts promptly and her calm and professional demeanor helped get me through some stressful moments due to iffy weather. Our wedding day was perfectly executed and I had 100% confidence that Katy would handle any glitches that might possibly pop up. She didn’t skip a beat. Katy gets my highest recommendation! She's just THE BEST!

Madison R. Sent on 12/01/2022Katy is truly the best! She made our wedding day so perfect and way better than we could’ve possibly imagined.
We hired Katy just over a year before our wedding at Eberle. We decided to go with her full coordinating package since my husband and I did not have a lot of time outside of work to fully plan our wedding. From day one Katy was responsive and helpful. We did contact other coordinators but she outshined them in our honest opinion. She helped us get some of the best vendors and gave us her honest opinion of each one. She was a major help with timeline and keeping in touch with vendors. Katy was a major help with making sure each vendor on the wedding day knew the timeline and where to be. When it came to the wedding day, she was a rockstar! My husband and I are still in awe about how perfectly everything lined up from the timing of the sunset during our ceremony to cocktail hour to the reception. I highly recommend going with Katy as your wedding planner. We are so glad she was a part of our special day.Paso WeddingSmith's reply:
Congratulations on your marriage and Thank you for having me by your side. It was a delight to bring your stunning wedding to reality. -

Brooke H. Sent on 07/10/2022Detail-oriented, calm, and very helpful!
We hired Katy to help us plan our wedding in addition to coordinating the day of and I honestly don't know what we would have done without her! She made our wedding day so flawless, we didn't stress for a minute or need to think about any sort of coordination, instead we just relaxed and had the best day of our entire lives.
In addition to making the day of the wedding smooth, Katy answered my 1 million questions over the course of a year and helped us find the perfect vendors and make all sorts of decisions. Her network of vendors on the central coast is amazing and really helped us since we aren't local to the area.
On top of all of this, Katy is such a joy to work with and has a very calming presence. We never had to stress about anything and she made the entire wedding planning process fun and enjoyable.
I highly recommend hiring Katy for your day, she is the best and you won't regret it!!Paso WeddingSmith's reply:
Thank you Brooke! It was a joy to work with you this past year. I loved how everything came together. Stunning! It is clients like you why I love my job. I appreciate your kind words! Cheers to a lifetime of love and happiness. -

Bridget S. Sent on 11/19/2021Here's to a stress-free wedding!
Katy and her assistant Heidi were both absolutely fantastic to work with! Planning a wedding in California while living in Chicago during a pandemic could have been extremely nerve-racking but having Katy with me every step of the way made it a breeze. She was able to help us figure everything out, suggesting ideas we hadn't even thought of and coordinating all the moving pieces with ease. And because she is so familiar with the Paso area and other vendors, I wasn't stressed one bit with any of her recommendations.
On the day of the wedding Heidi made everything run smooth and my husband and I were able to truly enjoy our day. People would always ask me if I was stressed out leading up to the wedding and I could honestly tell them no, because I knew everything was being handled - thanks to Katy!
I could not recommend hiring Katy as your coordinator enough. You owe it to yourself to truly enjoy a stress-free wedding day and Katy will help you achieve this!Paso WeddingSmith's reply:
Thank you! It was a delight to plan your destination wedding and it warms my heart that we made it stress free for you. Cheers to married life! -

Gretchen D. Sent on 09/12/2021Katy was a dream to work with!
Katy helped us bring exactly what we were envisioning to life and she didn't miss a single detail we threw her way - even last-minute ones. She's incredibly flexible, responsive, budget-conscious, professional, supportive, and the list goes on! She truly helped us plan the most perfect day. I'd recommend her to anyone - not sure what we would have done without her!Paso WeddingSmith's reply:
Thank you!!! Congratulations on a stunning wedding you are set for a lifetime of happiness. It was my pleasure to assist in your celebration. -

Maggie Sent on 11/22/2020Calm, knowledgeable, and the prefect coordinator
As crazy as planning a wedding in 2020 was, Katy made the whole thing possible and was attentive with the information that kept changing. Katy was calm, and incredibly understanding with all of the changes that had to be made. We were so lucky to have Katy help us with our wedding.Paso WeddingSmith's reply:
Thank you Maggie! We did it a 2020 micro wedding and your photos are stunning! Cheers to you two 💗 -

Dominique Sent on 04/26/2021Such a pleasure to work with!
Katy was amazing at handling everything with our wedding! We originally had our wedding planned for 3/28/2020 and when we had to postpone 10 days before the wedding, Katy was fantastic! She contacted all of the vendors and helped us quickly find a new date and made sure all the vendors were available! Her response time is amazing and she is very organized! The week of the wedding, she was readily available and made sure all of our specifications from last year were still correct! The day of the wedding she was amazing and kept my husband and I on track and because of her our wedding went off without a hitch, at least that I knew about! Katy is extremely professional and a joy to work with!Paso WeddingSmith's reply:
Thank you! A big congratulations to you two! I am so happy we were able to give you a special day even though it was a year postponed. Cheers! -

Jodi C. Sent on 04/19/2020Couldn’t have done this without her!!
We couldn’t have pulled off this wedding without her! Her knowledge, professionalism and her willingness to go over and beyond for our day was priceless to us! If you are wondering if it’s worth it to you to hire a planner.. SHE IS! She set us up with the perfect hairstylist, flowers, and the photographer was the best in business, just like Katie! We couldn’t have been happier and we didn’t have to worry or stress over anything! Our day was perfect! I don’t recall what she charged, but it was way under what we felt she was worth!Paso WeddingSmith's reply:
Thank you Jodi! It was my pleasure to assist in your beautiful CA destination wedding. Wishing you all the best. -

Heather C. Sent on 09/21/2019Absolutely Perfect!
We got married three weeks ago and it was absolutely stunning because of Katy's attention to detail! All of our guests said that it was the best wedding they had ever been to and that could not have been possible without Katy's expertise!
Katy was extremely responsive from the very beginning and offered solutions immediately. Since this was a destination wedding, I was a bit nervous about coordinating everything. Katy took the stress out of planning and the day of execution. She also worked extremely well with the other vendors and communicated with them flawlessly to make it a perfect day! We had the dream team of vendors!!
Most importantly, Katy is a very nice and honest person. She was so fun to work with and has a positive attitude. She was calm and collected during the whole process. Not to mention it was about a 100 degrees on our wedding day!
If you are thinking of booking Katy, DO IT! She is a professional at a reasonable price. Our wedding was absolutely perfect and I couldn't have asked for anything better! Thank you Katy for making our big day flawless!!Paso WeddingSmith's reply:
Thank you so much, you two warmed my heart and I loved helping create your perfect wedding. Thanks for being the reason why I love my job. I wish you al the love and happiness together. -

Kate Sent on 07/15/2019Made our wedding magical!!
Our venue made it a requirement for us to have a month of wedding planner. Little did I know it would be the best money I spent for the entire wedding. Katy took all the stress out of planning and the day of. She also is so fun to work with. There are so many things that make Katy stand out...here's just a few:
1) Attention to detail: She really listened to the vision we had for our wedding, picking up on little things we said we liked and then made it happen. For example, we had briefly mentioned that we like our red wine chilled...then she made sure the venue had all our red wine chilled.
2) Behind the scenes: There were so many times throughout the planning process that Katy would work her magic behind the scenes without me knowing it. Whether it was reaching out to our officiant to coach and prep him, to working with the vendors directly, and only pinging me when I absolutely needed to be involved. It really made the planning process stress-free
3) Cost Conscious: There were numerous times that Katy suggested ways to save us money, while enhancing our wedding. For example, the venue had gold chargers that a previous wedding had left behind...Katy worked with the venue to get them for us at an almost zero cost. Or secured an easel from the venue for not cost...saving me money and one less thing I had to worry about bringing to the wedding.
I can't say enough great things about Katy. She's THE BEST!!Paso WeddingSmith's reply:
Oh! Thank you, Thank you! I am SOOOO going to miss planning with you. I am so delighted with the amazing outcome of your beautiful love story. Cheers to your best day ever! -

Amazing!!!
We were married on 4/20/19 and our experience with Katy was excellent. We met with several wedding planners but Katy was by far the best. She is easy to work with, professional, organized and has a great relationship with other vendors. Our wedding was flawless, planning was easy and stress free and everything came out beautiful. Katy’s recommendations were excellent. We received many compliments by family and friends on how great our wedding planner was and how wonderful everything had turned out. Katy went above and beyond our expectations. Thank you Katy we couldn’t have done it without you!!Paso WeddingSmith's reply:
Cheers to you two and thank you for the nice words it warms my heart that your wedding was flawless. Your photos are gorgeous and I can't wait to see the entire portfolio. Thank you for being so great to work with and I wish you all the happiness. -

Emily A. Sent on 04/08/2019Stress Free Wedding Planning
My husband and I got married in Paso Robles, CA. Since we lived out of town we decided to hire a wedding planner. Katy was one of the best decisions we made with our wedding date. Katy was kind and patient and did not try to push certain vendors on us. She had many recommendations for all vendors with prices and contracts following each recommendation. She was quick to respond and was very easy to talk to. I had many of my vendors and friends compliment Katy on her attentive schedule, which she was able to produce multiple months in advance and tweaked it when added or getting rid of certain things. Katy was readily available when we traveled into Paso Robles as well. She assured that she communicated with all vendors. I never had to contact a vendor to book to get details. I reached out to Katy for all vendor inquiries and she was able to get accurate information from all vendors, including our officiant and cousin 3 towns away making our wedding cake. There is not one single detail that I had to worry about because Katy had it all under control. All we had to do was pick from the recommended vendors and say "that one" and she took care of the rest. So much ease its difficult to put into words because we hardly had to do anything besides show up with a smile! The day of the wedding things went very smooth. She assured my husband and I were stress free along with making my parents comfortable. She assured we knew exactly what was going on ahead of time and where we needed to be next without making us feel rushed. If you plan on getting married in her area I highly recommend giving her a chance in helping you reduce your stress for your big day!Paso WeddingSmith's reply:
Thank you thank you thank you. Emily you are the reason why I love my job, thank you for being so great to work for. Your wedding was beautiful and so fun. The photos are gorgeous! Wishing you and Sean all the best! -

Stephanie Sent on 01/17/2019A calming organized ninja!
Katy was the best! She was so helpful and organized for our event we felt completely comfortable. Each time we came to something that felt overwhelming or unknown she was on it. She helped with numbers for ordering, suggestions for ceremony and reception she handled our entire timeline and was available via text, phone or email anytime we needed her. We live in Pasadena and had our wedding in Paso Robles and felt so confident with her as our planner! Her price was completely reasonable and more affordable than most in the area if not all. Also every vendor she suggested was spot on! If we had to do it all over again we would hire her again and again! Thank you, Katy for a day we will never forget!Paso WeddingSmith's reply:
Thank you! Your wedding was stunning and I was so happy to assist. What a great way to spend NYE, wouldn't have had it any other way! -

Christina Sent on 10/25/2018You won’t regret hiring the best!
I hired Katy based on a recommendation by a venue site that I didn’t end up going with. I planned most of the details but Katy really helped as we got closer to our wedding date with details, order of the ceremony, and helping us with things we didn’t even think about! She was so professional, responsive, positive and really helped my family, spouse and I enjoy the day without worries or regrets! Thank you Katy for all that you’ve done and I won’t hesitate to recommend your services to others. 10/10Paso WeddingSmith's reply:
Thank you Christina! Congratulations on a stunning wedding. It was my pleasure to help and I was delighted with the outcome. Wishing you two all the best💖. -

We had Katy for the day of our wedding. We were from out of town and she was very helpful with recommendations for local vendors or if there was an issue with a vendor she took care of it. She was very organized and thought of all the things you don’t think of while planning a wedding. She was so sweet, easy to work with, and did an amazing job on our wedding. If I lived in the area I would definitely work with her again or recommend her to others. She will truest make your special day magicalPaso WeddingSmith's reply:
Thank you Emily, it was a joy to help you and Jacob this past year. What an awesome celebration you had! Wishing you the best💕 -
