I wish the photo I got wasn’t so hilarious but it sums up how close I grew to Rebecca and how above and beyond she truly goes!
Our entire wedding planning process was a breeze thanks to Rebecca. With us being on the east coast, we needed someone we could trust to bring our vision to life especially when we couldn’t be there personally half the time. Rebecca did this and then some! She was there through every single step of the way serving as a guide and treating us like family. She supported our visions and made everything a dream come true. The day of, everything was perfect thanks to Rebecca and her team. She handled every little mishap quickly and calmly and kept the energy high all day. Rebecca was there early and stayed late to make sure our entire day was perfect. When I couldnt dance because of my train, she whipped out a tool and made me a new bustle so I could keep dancing ! Her and her team were so organized, kind and on top of EVERYTHING. We are so grateful not only to have had her for this incredible milestone, but to have made a friend for life. I cannot recommend her and her team highly enough - if you have a big event coming you NEED to work with Rebecca!

I had the privilege of working with Rebecca and her team at a wedding last year. As a photographer, I really appreciated their organization, kind service, and efficiency in all that they did. They go above and beyond! I would highly recommend Rebecca and her team to any couple and I hope to work with them again!

This review is long overdue. Rebecca is an angel from heaven, I am sure of it. As a former Bridezilla (in recovery now), Rebecca handled all my crazy requests, "urgent" text messages, daily questions with such grace, kindness and professionalism. I pestered her for a whole year leading up to the wedding and she always had an answer to my never-ending questions. However, the best part about Rebecca was how she made us feel on our wedding weekend. We had a logistical nightmare of a wedding with events in different cities, themes, etc. It was also 105 degrees in Palm Springs that day. However, Rebecca never complained. She helped execute everything to our dreams and she just has such a calm energy about her that you can't help but calm down as well. I seriously cannot thank her enough. We are already thinking about the next big event Rebecca can help us plan just so we can spend time with her again! She is truly a gem, you NEED to book her as your wedding planner. She is incredible!!!

This review is long over due.

Rebecca and her team helped coordinate my wedding last year at the Richard Nixon Library. Rebecca is very responsive, friendly, and the best advocate for you. About a month to a few weeks before my wedding, Rebecca created a handbook, listing out every little detail of our wedding - even details that I didn’t even think about. This really showed me her expertise in wedding planning. She made sure all our vendors knew where and when to set up, and this is so important because if you don’t have a coordinator then the vendors will call you. On the day of my wedding, there was always someone from her team that was with me and my husband while the others made sure everything was in order. I even had a guest that showed up without RSVP-ing and Rebecca took care of that. I really got to enjoy my wedding without having to worry about anything.

I’ve been meaning to write this review as Rebecca and her team is so deserving of it. What really pushed me to finally write one was because I had a bad experience with another wedding planner where I was a bridesmaid for. That planner had the bridesmaids set up the reception and was calling the bride constantly about the set up of everything. This experience made me appreciate Rebecca and her team even more. If you are on the fence of whether you should get a wedding planner or not. The answer is YES. And the best person in the industry is Rebecca and her team. They will do all the behind the scene work so you and your partner can enjoy your wedding.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

The best wedding planner and events team ever! Honestly, Rebecca is a literal angel and her team is just as incredible. Throughout the wedding planning process I found myself grateful everyday to have Rebecca and RC Events in my corner. Rebecca worked diligently to make my visions come to life. Whenever I was stuck on a wedding related decision it’s like she knew how to read my mind and provide the perfect solution. Rebecca provided me with a top tier team of vendors who were not only masters at their craft but the kindest, most genuine human beings as well. My husband and I will forever be grateful. Whenever any bride to be asks me for advice I always just say to “Hire Rebecca!” We constantly get questions and compliments about every last wedding detail and we owe that all to Rebecca and her team.

Rebecca and her team were a pleasure to work with. Rebecca helped us with our planning and vendors leading up to the wedding and the day of coordination. Everything went smoothly the day of. Highly recommend Rebecca if you are looking for that extra support during your planning.

Hiring Rebecca Calagna Events was the best decision we made for my daughter’s wedding, and we were so lucky to have Brianna as our coordinator! From start to finish, Brianna and her team were incredibly organized, professional, and thoughtful. As the mother of the bride, I was able to enjoy the entire day without a single concern or worry - a true gift.

There was rain in the forecast for the outdoor ceremony, and I started to get nervous. When I reached out to Brianna, she had already contacted the vendors, arranged a Plan B, and reassured me that everything was under control. Thanks to her preparation, I knew we didn’t need to worry. In the end, the day was overcast with a little wind, which made for gorgeous pictures, and the sun even came out for the ceremony - it was perfect!

There was a moment in the bridal suite when champagne spilled down a bridesmaid’s dress. The team had it cleaned up immediately, leaving no stain, and the bride never even knew it happened. Their calm, proactive approach ensured that every potential hiccup was handled flawlessly.

When the wedding was over, Brianna and her team had everything packed up and ready to go. We literally just got in the car and left for the after-party without lifting a finger- it was incredible!

Even though the venue had its own coordinator, Brianna and her team went above and beyond. They worked seamlessly with the vendors, kept us on schedule, and handled every detail with perfection. This was hands down, the best money we spent during the entire planning process.

I cannot recommend Rebeca Calagna Events, and especially Brianna, enough! If you want peace of mind and a stress-free, beautifully executed wedding day, they are absolutely invaluable.

Hired Rebecca for day of coordination after a previous wedding planner ghosted me. Rebecca was amazing and she did so much more than just day of coordination! She was so organized and her info packet made me feel so at ease. Every little detail I gave her was noted and taken care of. She also has a huge team and they were all wonderful. Truly a seamless wedding and coordinating about ten or more vendors on a rooftop is not an easy task! Rebecca accomplished it all with poise and experience.
