Sage + Oak Events

istoric Brown Palace Hotel. Dawn is nothing short of a wedding wizard, blending impeccable professionalism with a warm, calming presence that put our minds at ease from start to finish. Dawn’s meticulous attention to detail transformed our vision into a flawless reality. She masterfully coordinated with the Brown Palace’s staff and our vendors, ensuring every element—from the grand staircase ceremony to the opulent ballroom reception—flowed seamlessly. Her timeline management was perfection; not once did we feel rushed or uncertain. She even anticipated needs we didn’t know we had, like smoothing out a last-minute hiccup with our bridal suite and adjusting the layout to complement the venue’s timeless elegance. What truly set Dawn apart was her genuine care and creativity. She remembered every personal touch we’d mentioned in passing, from the signature cocktail dedicated to our dogs to surprising us with the lights diming as we finished our ceremony, so the room was lit by candlelight. It was the most magical ceremony ever! Her ability to stay composed, cheerful, and solution-oriented left us in awe. Thanks to Dawn, we didn’t just have a wedding—we experienced a joy-filled, stress-free celebration where every moment felt intentional and authentically us. The Brown Palace’s grandeur was elevated by her expertise, and our guests are still raving about how smoothly the day unfolded. If you’re planning a wedding, especially at a venue as iconic as the Brown Palace, Dawn Everett and Sage and Oak Events are an absolute must. Trust us: hiring Dawn isn’t just an investment in your wedding day—it’s an investment in peace of mind, magic, and memories you’ll cherish forever. **Thank you, Dawn, for making our dream wedding a reality!**

rocess. Day-of, Dawn handled everything from set up, coordinating vendors, and tear down. She really allowed my husband and I to just enjoy the day-of and enjoy the family and friends we were surround by. If we had any issues day-of, we were unaware until Dawn had handled the issue and smoothed everything over! For instance we ran out of one of the mixers and Dawn ran to the store to go grab it for us, didn’t even know it was an issue until day after the wedding! Seriously, Dawn is an amazing woman and will be your superwoman on your biggest day.

d Oak for wedding services! :)

d that perfectly and more. She also gave us a lot of tips for a successful day. On the day of, her assistant was able to drive back to our house to get a bow tie that was left behind which saved us valuable time. As a gay couple we felt very comfortable with Dawn and places where her templates said bride and groom she changed for us.

her ability to help us plan our wedding over multiple phone calls. My husband and I live in a different state than where we got married so having the ability to work remotely with Dawn was absolutely perfect. Her communication, attitude, and knowledge made the experience so smooth. I would recommend Sage + Oak Events to everyone!

details that we hadn’t even thoughts about! The day of, she did an amazing job decorating our DIY venue, and then kept our ceremony and reception on track. Truly, we could not have done it without her. Cannot recommend enough!

ride - she made it so we could actually enjoy the events as much as possible. Dawn really listened to what was most important to us and no matter what made it happen! We had a complex situation: an out of state wedding, with a ceremony in Colorado Springs on a Friday and our reception in Denver on a Saturday — Dawn met with us at both locations before the event & worked so well with our vendors to pull off everything smoothly. We had a couple vendors who were difficult to get in touch and keep in touch with, and Dawn completely took over the situation and got it taken care of, and I never had to worry about anything once she was on it. She really kept this type B bride in order and on time!
