Kinsey Eager
Owner / Lead Planner
With a decade of experience in the wedding industry, I have worked across all aspects of event planning. Prior to launching Eager Events, I served as Event Director for a full-service catering company in Santa Barbara, managing multiple venues and overseeing everything from planning and catering to rentals, vendors, etc. I’m incredibly grateful for those years, as they gave me a strong foundation in the industry, and I’m so excited to bring that expertise to each of my clients and help them create an unforgettable day! While I love design, disco balls, floral installations, insanely delicious appetizers, a packed dance floor, and working with incredible vendors, the reason I still have an ever-growing passion for weddings is YOU - the couple! I am so excited to meet you and start planning.

Kinsey was incredibly professional throughout the entire wedding planning process. She was very flexible and available to meet with us in person or over the phone. She knows so man...
y vendors in the Santa Barbara area and was able to recommended the best of the best.
Everything was so smooth on our wedding day because of Kinsey. She communicated and scheduled everything with all the vendors for day of (we did not have to worry about any of that). She made sure we got appetizers and drinks! She made sure everything was set up exactly how we wanted it. Everything ran smoothly before the wedding, during the ceremony and reception because of her experiences with weddings! My husband and I would highly recommended Kinsey!!

Working with Kinsey was one of the biggest highlights of our wedding. Working in the industry myself I knew I wanted to work with Kinsey from the beginning. Her reputation was glow...
ing, and she far surpassed it with her dedication and performance. I'm a big believer that booking big vendors should feel like building friendships, and we were so grateful to find that with Kinsey. After each phone call or meeting my now husband and I couldn't stop saying how happy we were to have booked her. She took charge was professional, and offered advice that steered us in the right direction countless times. We were blessed to have the biggest rainstorm since the 80's plow through our Santa Barbara wedding, and she could not have handled it better. She had a backup rain plan sorted for us in under 48 hours, which included new rentals, designs, and logistics. Most brides would be freaking out, but truthfully I knew I could take a step back and let Kinsey handle it. And boy did she deliver. She made our wedding look gorgeous and maintained the guest experience we were looking for while actively sweeping out pounds of rain from our venue (an image that will never make me not laugh). You never expect for your wedding to head in the direction of a shit show, but hiring Kinsey will make sure it never even gets close. She treated our wedding with the care she would a best friend, and as a bride that's the biggest honor. Even our guests told us countless times how incredible and amazing she was. I without a doubt will be recommending her to all my friends and all of my upcoming brides! This is one of the few vendors that will be worth every single penny. We love you Kinsey!!

We can’t say enough good things about working with Kinsey!!! From start to finish, she made the entire experience so easy and fun. Our wedding at the Santa Barbara Zoo was absolute...
ly incredible, and with Kinsey, we never had to worry about a thing.
She handled every detail behind the scenes — coordinating vendors, keeping things on schedule, and solving issues before they ever reached us. Because of her, we were able to just enjoy the day and be fully present with our friends and family.
Kinsey has this calm, confident energy that puts everyone at ease, and she somehow manages to make even the most complex logistics feel effortless. The whole day ran perfectly, and we owe that to her!
We can’t thank her enough for helping us create a day that was not only beautiful but completely worry-free. We’d recommend Kinsey to anyone — she’s truly the best!!!!

From the beginning of our wedding planning journey, Kinsey was incredibly professional and flexible on meeting with us to throw the wedding of our dreams! She has a knack for being...
creatively trendy and also knows how to balance incorporating beautiful timeless elements if you want a classic wedding. She just "got" our vision and called around to give us different options with great local vendors, even if we ended up not going with those choices!
Day-of, she was a total lifesaver as well - she was there to pep talk walking down the aisle, fluff my dress, hand me appetizers, and bustle my dress. You'll make a friend for life with Kinsey and we highly recommend her!
