Golden Events

ways one step ahead. They handled all the little details behind the scenes so the bride, groom, and wedding party could actually relax and enjoy the day. Everyone was so kind, helpful, and easy to work with. You could tell they genuinely cared about making the day special. I would definitely recommend Golden Events to anyone planning a wedding!

hoto hunt! The meals were great! Kicking off the trip with river rafting was such a great way to set the tone for the next two days. The venue was phenomenal… we just could not be happier with how this all came together. This team of professional party planners kick ass! I am NOT good at organizing people/assigning tasks, but with Erykah and crew putting together the invite, helping with coordinating everything from the logistics and rides to the games and events, it was flawless!

w we wanted things set up, where everything should be, etc. Then on the wedding day, things went very wrong in my opinion. First, my bridesmaids and friends/family who came to help with setup were given little instruction besides what I'd typed up beforehand. Luckily I shared everything with them prior or else things would've gotten even messier. We were promised another assistant coordinator with Caroline. After we arrived, she informed us that her colleague couldn't make it and had replaced her with her own teenage daughter. We felt this was an inappropriate replacement because her daughter couldn't even do a bit of a coordinator's job. Caroline and her daughter were supposed to coordinate the processional by phone because the wedding party was downstairs and we were upstairs, yet her daughter didn't even have her phone when the ceremony was about to begin. As a result, there was an extremely long wait because the bridesmaids were not given cues. One of our guests had to signal them to start walking. Oh my gosh. Horrible. Then after the ceremony, there was NO recessional music, so the bridesmaids couldn't start walking. We were all embarrassed standing at the altar staring at the DJ and, more importantly, the coordinator. Fine, we unfortunately hired an incompetent DJ who misunderstood my instructions, but the coordinator who knew our agenda couldn't even cue him to play the music. It's baffling that something so simple failed to happen. Caroline also failed to keep us on schedule. We don't need a loosey-goosey coordinator but someone who can execute and be firm with our timeline. She told us we're "behind," but didn't specify HOW behind or what we still had time for. I was surprised we ran out of time to even distribute the wedding cake, and I really wanted the wedding to end on a high note with some dancing. That did not happen. When we were ready to cut the cake, Caroline was nowhere to be seen. My partner had to move the cake herself when she's not supposed to be doing that. The worst thing was her attitude when we addressed our dissatisfaction. Caroline tried to explain and shift the blame to everyone else. I don't think she understands that as the coordinator, she is ultimately accountable for how the event went. She couldn't coordinate with her daughter properly, couldn't cue the DJ, and couldn't keep us on schedule. She couldn't even apologize for not making sure she and her daughter were coordinated. She only apologized for the "confusion" and went on a big loop explaining what caused it. In reality, the "confusion" wouldn't have happened IF they both had their phones and were coordinated. It's THAT simple. It was also extremely unprofessional to send her daughter instead of her colleague without notifying us in advance. We would've had no issue with her daughter being there if she could do a coordinator's job. When we asked where Caroline was, she simply said "I don't know," and wouldn't ask what we needed or offer to find her. It's almost like she's there to enjoy our ship wedding. We regretted hiring Golden Event for one of the most important days of our lives. If I knew this would be the outcome, I would've spent 3 times as much to hire someone more competent, professional, and more importantly, someone who takes accountability.

utifully. The florals were absolutely gorgeous, and their communication throughout the entire process was great. They truly went above and beyond for us, and I’m so grateful we had them as part of our wedding day!

vendors, and guided us through the process.  Not only did Golden Events handle the day of coordination, they took care of us-bride and groom. They made us left over boxes of the meal and desserts.  They were always around and available on the day of to answer questions and get/find what we needed. They are the experts, so we could just enjoy our day. Thank you again, Caroline and Erykah.  We recommend them 110%!!

They executed everything we talked about and took care of all the behind the scenes details so that we could fully enjoy the day. I cannot say enough good things about them. Caroline and Erykah are awesome to work with and I highly recommend them. 

rdinated all the food and decorations and setup and clean up. Honestly the amount of detail and thought they put into it was mind blowing. They thought of things I didn't even consider and it all turned out amazing. They even gave me game suggestions for the 20+ family members that came! Thank you so much for your help!!!

t job walking us through everything from beginning to end- the venue, the best prices, all the vendors for dresses, flowers, tables, chairs, decor, drinks, food, dessert, party favors, cake, cloths, runners, stands, streamers, music, DJ, alcohol, lights and so much more we would have forgotten or not thought of in the first place. They helped set up day-of and kept track of everything so it went off without a hitch. They handled any problems that came up so that we did not even know or realize. It all went seamlessly. I would recommend them for any event of any size. Thanks again!
