WE CREATE A PERSONALIZED
MEMORABLE WEDDING DAY FOR YOU

ABOUT ME

I grew up in Santa Cruz  and reside in Ben Lomond. I am a Santa Cruz based wedding planner with over two decades of experience.  I have had a passion for event planning starting at a young age helping organize gatherings for our large family. Combining my corporate experience of planning and organizing  large and small sales meetings, off-site and employee engagement events, I am well versed with problem solving and quick thinking. I pride myself on being proactive and engaging all in the event planning process to ensure it has your personal flair, individuality highlighted.

Most of my corporate and individual clients are locally based and organically sourced through word of mouth. That type of personal connection with my community enables me to engage in quality conversation with clients with particular design aesthetics. There is joy in being a part of the process, especially the challenges and pressures that come with successful executions. As we discuss the details and decor, I cherish the moments where many memories will develop during the day. As a wedding planner, I’m invested in my clients wedding day needs. In fact, when I see clients years passed from their epic events, we tend to reminisce about the seamless blissful experience of the entire day. Their responses to my work sustains my joy for this line of work.

My organically developed wedding savvy network gives clients multiple options to personalize their day of nuptials. As a wedding planner project manager, I become the single point of vendor contact. This allows me to efficiently manage the day’s schedule between the bridal party, event staff, and vendors leading up to and on the wedding day.

What elements provide a memory? Together we can discuss how to incorporate all five senses into your memorable wedding day. Would you like your day to smell like jasmine and honeysuckle? How about a theme of decor that resonates with the sunset? As you touch the texture of food, does it taste like love? Will the musical arrangement involve a smooth jazz infusion? Let’s turn your wedding into a daydream!

  • Penny was an indispensable wedding planner who truly saved the day. Her meticulous attention to detail and proactive assistance made all the difference. We met multiple times to plan and discuss every aspect, ensuring our special day was everything we dreamed of. Additionally, Penny scheduled meetings for us with the DJ, caterer, photographer and venue host to meticulously review every detail in advance, ensuring a seamless wedding day without any last-minute issues or questions. On the day of our wedding, Penny consistently ensured that my husband and I were taken care of- making sure we had drinks, were fed, and even encouraging us to take moments to sit down and savor the experience. Our wedding truly wouldn’t have been the same without her. Penny took charge of all the decor I had collected, expertly arranging everything to perfection despite my initial uncertainty about the layout.

    Penny is not only an exceptional wedding planner but also a talented event organizer for gatherings of all sizes. I have attended parties she has orchestrated and they were equally fantastic. I highly recommend choosing Penny as a wedding planner, you will not be disappointed.
