  • You’ve put your heart into planning this thing —but between coordinating vendors, managing expectations, and keeping everything on schedule, it can start to feel more overwhelming than exciting. You’re not looking for perfection—you’re looking for something that feels like you, where the pressure is off and you can actually be present with the people you love. You don't want to just pay for planning help—you want to have some peace of mind, knowing someone’s got it covered, so you can breathe.

    That’s where Events by Erin comes in. I work with clients who want support they can trust—someone who listens to their vision, understands what matters most, and knows how to bring it all together with calm, steady guidance. Whether you have a detailed Pinterest board or just a few must-haves, I help simplify the planning process and create an event that reflects you.

    Clients often say working with me feels like having a friend who is calm and organized—someone who shows up, keeps things running smoothly, and makes sure you’re not the one answering questions or solving problems on the big day!

    If you’re looking for a collaborative, grounded planner who’s as invested in your event as you are, I’d love to connect!

    "I can be a control freak and I wanted to manage every detail. As a bride, you don't have time for that! So that's where I needed to hire a coordinator for the big day.
    Erin was so helpful in getting all of the vendors on the same page, and getting them all coordinated. It was easy to work with her and she is super organized and helpful. She was really easy to get ahold of, which was awesome.
    Erin has such an open personality and she really made all of my visions come to life, without me feeling like I had no input. She made the wedding feel so unstressful. It was nice to feel like everything was taken care of and I really didn't have anything to worry about!
    Erin is definitely like your friend. She really gets to know you and figures out what is important to you and makes your day go exactly how you dream of."

    "I was worried if the cost would be worth it, but Erin was very knowledgeable right off the bat, had fantastic ideas and suggestions, and made us feel at ease at the first meeting. We could tell she’d take a lot of pressure and stress off our plate. Our venue was uncommunicative, unprofessional, and barely any help at all, but Erin listened to our concerns and assured us that we’d get through the day as best we could. And we did! What stood out most was her attention to detail. Something as small as ordering more forks and plates for dessert. I would’ve never thought of that. It was a huge relief to have someone who’s actually planned weddings help plan ours. She thought of every tiny thing that we had missed. So many people were grateful that we had her. My mom especially said over and over that Erin was such a gem, and she was right. Everyone was so glad she was at the rehearsal, so we all knew who to turn to on the wedding day. My advice to future couples: hire her before you choose a venue! Seriously. It’s the only thing I wish I had done differently. It would’ve saved us a world of worry.”

    "As a mother of the bride, my biggest hesitation was whether a wedding planner or coordinator would be worth the money (P.S. the answer is “Yes!”). One of our biggest challenges with the wedding was trying to figure out how to guide everyone through the rehearsal the day before, and then on the wedding day.

    Erin was so easy to work with for the wedding. She was grounded, realistic about expectations and confident in her ability to execute so many parts of the wedding. Erin worked so well with all of us, our various personalities and all of our input, questions and ideas. She helped fill in the gaps where we needed guidance and always had options to help us figure out what was going to work best for us.

    We were so happy with her service and so glad we hired her. She worked continually to keep things flowing at the rehearsal and wedding. We couldn’t have done it without her!"

    "We hired Erin as our wedding coordinator and we could not have been happier! Erin was on top of the ball every step of the way and was eager to jump in to help when we ran into issues with certain vendors. On the day of, Erin was our go-to person for anything we needed and constantly made sure we were taken care of. From last minute hair adjustments, to making sure we both had food amidst all of the craziness, we were able to rely on her for anything! She truly was instrumental in making our day perfect and I can't thank her enough!"

  • The best weddings happen when there’s trust, good communication, and just the right amount of collaboration—and that’s exactly how I love to work. If you have a clear vision for your day but are open to suggestions that could make it even smoother or more meaningful, we’ll probably work really well together. I connect best with couples who know what’s important to them, have a general budget in mind, and are flexible enough to roll with the small stuff (because let’s be honest—weddings always come with a few surprises!).

    You don’t have to know everything—that’s what I’m here for—but if you’re excited to plan, trust my experience, and want someone who can take the pressure off while still making sure your voice is heard, we’re speaking the same language. You value kindness, clarity, and calm energy. You want to be involved, not overwhelmed. And you know that a beautiful wedding doesn’t mean everything goes perfectly—it means you’re surrounded by your people, feeling present and relaxed, knowing someone has your back.

    If that sounds like you, I think we’re going to get along great.
