Where do I begin? My daughters wedding was perfect. I think I’m a perfectionist and am very hands on with events, well, I have to say that I was at ease with Shelby and her team! She executed my thoughts and my daughters vision before we even thought to say anything.
I would highly recommend them!
They are on point! They made our dreams come true! They made everything very easy. And to boot, I was just a little star struck with Shelby and how amazing her and her team were! -

As someone who considers herself very organized and detail oriented, I still had no idea where to start with planning a destination wedding. After interviewing various wedding planners for my Cancun, Mexico wedding and not feeling a connection or inspired by any of them - when I spoke with Shelby I just knew she understood my vision. We contracted Shelby for full wedding planning services and the 1.5 years that we worked together were flawless! She is personable, creative, and extends herself to be available to her brides for every question, comment, concern or random thought that you have any day or time. The communication was flawless and effortless and she has the unique ability to make you feel like you are the only person in the room.
We met Shelby and Charlie when we traveled to Mexico for our food tasting/venue walkthrough about 1 year prior to our wedding. I already felt like I knew her based on the amount of calls/video chats/texts we had exchanged leading up to the initial meeting. She was equally as wonderful in person and the ideas and input she provided as we did our venue walkthrough were spot on and very appreciated!
The months leading up to the wedding were great, and as a bride I never felt stressed or overwhelmed because I knew I had the best team backing me. Shelby facilitated every interaction, kept contracts/payments organized, put together the best team & brought in the best vendors to support us on our special day.
Now for the wedding: As if the interactions, communication and unique ideas weren't enough, her wedding day execution was also FLAWLESS. I knew everything would be beautiful because I had painted a picture in my mind of what the tables, flowers, dancefloor, lighting, etc. would look like, but what Shelby created was beyond my wildest dreams! Every detail was perfection, the food was great, the timing was spot on, and the entertainment was a show stopper! All of her ideas of what to add/what wasn't needed were exactly what we needed. Lastly, Shelby and her team also have the best way of anticipating and navigating guests and their needs. With 100 people traveling to Mexico for our wedding & our family/friends having larger than life personalities, Shelby quickly got to know the whos who of our family and treated everyone with the utmost kindness and respect, while being gentle regarding our unique family dynamics. I will forever appreciate that she was able to navigate the family personalities and cater to everyone's unique needs during wedding week - needless to say, EVERY guest had the best time and the memories we created will last a lifetime!
I could not have pulled off the wedding of a lifetime without her and her team. She was our BEST decision and we are lucky to have been a Simply Classic couple! The gratitude we feel in our hearts will never go away - if you are looking for THE BEST, look no further! -

The team who does it all
Where to begin?! Shelby and Charlie are incredible to work with. My now husband and I did a destination wedding in Mexico with 80 guests. While we have always loved planning parties, a wedding is a whole different game, especially in another country. Shelby and Charlie were there every single step of the way. Prior to the wedding, the communication was incredible. From continuous texting to phone calls, every question (and there were a lot) were answered! Our wedding was a week of fun. The wedding day was a DREAM. Everyone was coming up to us saying it was designed perfectly just for US. The detail was amazing! I remember one of our first phone calls going over what I envisioned and the day itself encompassed all of it and more. I often hear from brides that they feel like they miss their wedding day from everything going on, that was not my case. I was on the dance floor all night, partying with my new husband, family and friends all because Shelby and Charlie were taking care of everything else. If you’re on the fence about who to hire for your wedding planner, I promise, you found the right people! -

My husband and I always knew we wanted a destination wedding in Mexico, but the how and execution part would always stress us out. From the heavens above coupled with lovely Instagram, we came across the Simply Classic IG page and set up a meeting with Shelby. After the very first consult meeting, we were sold and it was the best decision we made in this whole wedding planning process. Compared to other brides that I had chatted with, I was amazed with how little stress I had throughout the entire process and it’s all because I knew I had Shelby at every turn. She would be super honest about what was doable/practical and design worthy, which I really appreciated. The actual wedding week was no different. The most common piece of feedback we received from nearly all of our guests was how this was the most perfect and thoughtfully detailed wedding they had ever been to. When I say Shelby and Charlie are the dream team, I am not lying. I’m only sad because now I don’t have an excuse to talk to them every week. If you are looking for a sign to commit to working with Simply Classic Events, look no further. You will not be disappointed! -

Simply Easy
Using Simply Classic events for your wedding planning is the second easiest decisions you have to make besides saying “ I do”. Shelby has a wealth of knowledge and ideas from venues to the simplest touches that make your wedding day that much smoother and fun. The day of our wedding we had zero stress about everything behind the scenes because we knew it was in the meticulous hands of shelby. She is easy to work with as your planner and always has your best interest at heart: She gets sh*t done. -

Everything and more!!
Shelby at Simply Classic Events & Simply Classic Travels made my wedding dreams come to life! She was amazing with helping me find my perfect venue, set up room blocks for all my guests, help coordinate multiple events and listened and fulfilled every last request & detail my husband and I wanted. She would answer every panic email and text instantly and eased any nerves I had through out the whole planning process. She truly made wedding planning a breeze and always had me & my fiancé in mind. I truly cannot thank her enough for making my dream come to life! All my guests raved about her all weekend :) -

My brother in law and his wife hired Shelby and Charlie to help plan their Texas wedding in November of 2022. As a member of the wedding party, I was able to see them in action on the day before and the day of the wedding. They were there the day before to accept deliveries, begin setting up, and keep all of us on track of what needed to be done. The wedding took place at the bride and grooms home so there was a lot that we were doing that normally would be taken care of by a venue. The dance floor was being delivered later than we expected and they were happy to wait while we headed to the welcome dinner. On the day of, they made sure that everything was on time, the bride and groom's needs were met at every turn, and that the guests were having a good time. The team at Simply Classic Events is organized, professional, and most of all fun! You will not regret hiring Shelby and Charlie for your wedding whether you need someone to plan every detail from start to finish, or you just need support executing your vision the week of. -

Erick C. Sent on 01/11/2023Amazing Experience w/Shelby and Her Team
We highly recommend Simply Classic Events for your wedding. Shelby and her team were amazing. We hired them for full event planning and it was extremely helpful having Shelby guide us through the planning process. She was always available when we had questions - we talked so much that she felt more like a friend than just our wedding planner. She was also great under pressure - we had a wind issue right before the ceremony started and glasses in the reception area were shattered. Shelby was picking up broken glass out of the grass to make sure everything at the reception was ready. She handled everything so perfectly that we didn't even realize how serious the issue was until speaking to her about it later that night. She absorbed all the stress from the situation, which we really appreciated. Again - HIGHLY recommend! -

Shelby and her team helped create my fairytale wedding dreams come true in the Italian countryside. I truly couldn’t have done it without her. As you can imagine, being located in San Diego and planning a wedding in another country such as Italy can be challenging. But Shelby helped coordinate it all. From the venue, the flowers, the photographer/videographer, the hair/makeup team and so much more. And her eye for design is one of kind! Thank you for making all my dreams come true!Simply Classic Events's reply:

Let's go back for a group trip, it was just to special!
