Emily and her team made my wedding so beautiful, beyond what I imagined. Emily was a top notch professional and really went above and beyond handling all the planning, details and was a trusted advisor throughout. She gave me friggin awesome vendor referrals and is a very cool cat under pressure. She's an all around wonderful person and can put on a stunning once in a lifetime event!
I am not even sure how to begin to write a review that does Emily and her team justice. They honored every detail and thought from the beginning. Emily helped us plan our dream wedding in California while we were at home in Chicago. She thought of everything before we even knew it was an option. She is incredibly talented, easy to work with and organized. She handled all tough conversations and let us feel at peace on our big day. I overslept by hours on the morning of, and she made it seem like everyone else was just early and we had plenty of time :) I can't thank her enough for the kindness that she showed our families. I could not imagine our day without her!
Emily at Coastal Rose Events was the heart and soul behind my dream elopement and wedding reception. From the very start, she brought an incredible blend of professionalism, warmth, and genuine empathy that made me feel completely at ease. Her communication was impeccable—she kept us informed and checked in regularly, making sure every detail was perfectly in place. When it came to the design process, she embraced my vision with such enthusiasm, giving thoughtful input and seamlessly incorporating her own expertise.
On the day of, her hands-on approach allowed me to be fully present, free from any stress or worry. Knowing she was behind the scenes handling every detail meant so much—I could simply enjoy each moment, which was a gift I’ll forever be grateful for. Emily is a true gem, and I can’t recommend Coastal Rose Events enough to anyone looking for a coordinator who’s not only talented but also truly cares. Thank you, Emily, for making our day so incredibly smooth, beautiful, and unforgettable!
Any questions?
I could not recommend Emily and her team enough! She made planning a wedding, especially with not even being from Santa Barbara, as stress free and seamless as planning a wedding could be. She was always super responsive and available whenever I needed any help! She really gets to know you as a couple and listens to how you envision your day all while providing invaluable suggestions and guidance. She is very knowledgeable about all things Santa Barbara and always had amazing recommendations for us I fully trusted. She is very organized and always helped me stay on track without feeling overwhelmed. She made our vision come to life better than I could have ever imagined and truly goes above and beyond to make sure everything is perfect on wedding day. I have never felt more special and loved, and I owe a big part of that to Emily and her team 🤍 I could never be able to thank Emily enough for everything she did for us!
10/10 experience with Emily and her team. We were so unbelievably happy with the service that Emily and her team provided. I have a hospitality background and crazy high expectations when it comes to standards of service. I can say with 100% certainty this was the best money we spent of all of our vendors. Emily is punctual and kind and overall just a wonderful person. She is a savant on all things Santa Barbara and can provide insight that you really can't get anywhere else. She is detailed where needed and allowed us to express ourselves creatively too. She is just what you need on your wedding day and I could not have done my day without her. If you are even slightly interested in having a seamless, worry free day give Emily a call. She will change your life!
We LOVED working with Emily and her team. She was so attentive and helpful that even our guests were telling us how great she was.
Emily was always calm, helpful, and ready to guide us towards the special day we wanted. We genuinely couldn't have hoped for a better partner in making our wedding as great as it was.
If you are in Santa Barbara (or the area), I can absolutely promise you'll love working with Coastal Rose too.
From the moment we met Emily, we knew we were in the best hands for our special day! Her professionalism and meticulous attention to detail really helped make our day an unforgettable experience that exceeded all our expectations!
Throughout the planning process, Emily was incredibly organized and responsive. She provided invaluable guidance and suggestions while respecting our preferences, ensuring every decision was stress-free and enjoyable.
On the day of our intimate elopement, Emily made sure the day ran smoothly. From managing vendors, to ensuring the timeline was followed, she handled everything with grace and efficiency. We were able to fully immerse ourselves in our intimate ceremony, knowing that every aspect was being expertly managed! I could not recommend Emily enough; she is absolutely incredible and we are forever grateful for her!
Emily is the absolute best!! We quickly realized that while we were having an intimate wedding (32 people), it was still a wedding and we were in over our heads. We needed help coordinating the nuances that a small wedding brought, and Emily was the person to help guide us. We are not from Santa Barbara, and having Emily by our side as not only the resident SB expert, but also an all around positive advocate for us was one of the best decisions we made. Her deep knowledge of the area and its vendors was invaluable. We trusted every vendor she sent our way, and helped to make those tough decisions no brainers. She provided us with insights and suggestions that we would have never been able to find on our own and was the utmost professional the entire time.
Communication with Emily was easy and seamless. She is extremely organized and keeps everything logged. She knew exactly what questions to ask, took the time to understand what was important to us, and listened – all of this helped us clarify our own vision for the day. She encouraged us to prioritize our desires and preferences, even if they strayed from tradition.
Emily was a rock star on the day of – we talked through the way we wanted certain items to look and feel but she really brought everything to life in a way I couldn’t have imagined. I had zero stress that day, never once did I worry about a thing. She had taken care of it all! Our wedding was everything we hoped for and more, and we have Emily to thank for that. She went above and beyond to make our day not just successful, but truly special. We cannot recommend her highly enough.
Emily and her team are an absolute joy to work with and ensured that our day went smoothly and exactly how we wanted (as far as I know! Lol) Emily went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect - including a last minute stop at Trader Joe’s to grab roses for our recessional petal toss. She’s organized, detailed, supportive, and has great energy. Communication with her throughout the process was easy and pleasant and I’m so happy we decided to hire her as our day of coordinator. It gave us so much peace of mind. Thanks Emily + Coastal Rose! :)
Emily at Coastal Rose Events was the reason my wedding was perfect. She seamlessly orchestrated everything from start to finish in 60 days; my guests were in disbelief at how well everything turned out, saying it couldn’t have been any better had I been planning for 2 years. She is extremely organized, has great planning tools, communicates well, and above all has great taste. She directed me to a wonderful set of vendors, who all beamed about how great Emily is to work with, which speaks volumes about her professionalism and demeanor. I felt comfortable, calm, and confident throughout the entire process and especially on my wedding day. Cannot more highly recommend. Thank you, Emily!
We worked with Emily for month of coordination and are so happy to have had her input for the very important month leading up to the wedding. Emily always showed up with a smile on her face. She kept us on track and communicated with all of our vendors. Her timeline was perfect and shared with everyone so that everyone was on track. Emily has such
Emily is the most organized, patient, and kind coordinator you could ask for! She is a wealth of knowledge and answered every question we had. We forgot to bring our guest book day off and she immediately had a solution and had everything prepared and ready to go for our guests and made me feel SO at ease throughout the whole process. She’s truly a gem to work with! Couldn’t recommend her more.
I want to take this opportunity to enthusiastically recommend my daughter’s Wedding Planner, Emily Greig, of Coastal Rose Events. Emily made what could have been a very stressful experience seamless; she far exceeded our expectations, while always exhibiting professionalism and cheerfulness. Emily worked closely with the vendors so we, literally, had nothing to worry about – to just enjoy the day. Emily is very detail-oriented, focusing on even the most minute detail. I can’t thank Emily enough for making my daughter’s “big day” absolutely perfect – Emily – you really did. Thank you!
If you are looking for a wedding coordinator in Ventura County, look no further! Emily went above and beyond, meeting with me whenever I needed her. Holding my hand throughout the whole planning process. Recommending amazing vendors that were exceptional on my big day. She is very professional, sweet, and is great at making fast decisions. We planned on the majority of my reception to be outdoors but it was too cold, and Emily was able to move everyone swiftly inside without any guests noticing. She even spent at least 10 minutes trying to get my stuck veil out of my head! Lastly and very importantly, she made sure my husband and I were fed and had a drink in our hand the entire evening. She is just amazing, can't recommend her enough :)
We cannot say enough good things about Emily and Coastal Rose Events! From our initial meeting, all the in between and planning meetings and meet ups, and all the way to the day of, Emily made us feel comfortable, heard, and calm. My husband and I wanted a smaller and more intimate wedding (60 people) but to still have many of the aspects we always see at a larger wedding. Emily never judged what we wanted and only welcomed and encouraged our vision for our day. She is patient, detailed, responsive, positive, smart, knows Santa Barbara and the surrounding areas like the back of her hand, and is a genuine joy to be around. She helped provide ideas, encouragement, and support throughout all of the planning. She was always on top of everything when we met with just her and with vendors, and helped us ask the questions needed during those meetings. We walked out of every call/meeting with her feeling less stressed and more excited!
I can't even tell you how perfectly the day of our wedding went. From start to finish, the Coastal Rose Team made sure everything went smoothly, was organized, communicated with our vendors to make everything look perfect, stayed on track with the timeline she created, and communicated to us and our families throughout the day (even just to make sure we were doing great and if we needed anything). Our day turned out better than we could have imagined in every way, and it is because we had Coastal Rose Events on our team!
We feel truly lucky to have had Emily on our team for our wedding day - it could not have been as amazing as it was without her help with planning and coordinating! I highly recommend Coastal Rose Events for your special day, big or small!
We hired Coastal Rose Events to support as a month-of coordinator and we could not be more pleased - Emily is thoughtful, detailed, kind and resourceful. She is insightful and sensitive, takes on challenge with poise, and is always willing to offer her insight and help. Emily helped us navigate some complex details and challenging dynamics and was professional, warm and just amazing throughout the whole process. Emily is a talented event planner and wonderful person and the Coastal Rose Events team will make your event planning process a million times easier. Hire her now! You won't regret it. :)

I was born and raised in the coastal city of Santa Barbara, California. This beautiful city is a gem full of unique settings perfect for all events. Once I returned after college, I knew this was where I wanted to call home forever. I feel fortunate to live and work here. We have an amazing vendor community in Santa Barbara, and it is wonderful to be a part of it.
Outside of weddings and events, you can find me traveling, spending time with my dog & husband, and at the beach or Disneyland.
I can't wait for the time we share together planning this special day!
