Hi, I’m Morgan! Thank you so much for being here. I am the Owner and Lead Planner of MBK Events. Let’s get straight to it - I freaking love love and I love planning. I swear, celebrating love, planning events, and getting to meet new people is my specialty. While planning my own wedding, I realized that so many Brides are not enjoying the process - so, that's where I plan to step in! I officially launched my business in October of 2021 so I can help other brides execute, plan, style and enjoy the wedding planning process. It is the most magical time of your life so lets make sure it feels magical all the way to the big day!

Awarded Best of Zola
Where do I even start? As soon as I got off my first inquiry call with Morgan, I immediately booked her and it was the best decision I made during the entire wedding planning process. We had less than a year to plan because of the specific date we wanted, and Morgan absolutely delivered (and more). We hired her as a full-time planner, and I cannot recommend this enough. Wedding stress? Don't know her. Morgan handled everything, from contacting all of our vendors and reviewing contracts, to securing us extra perks thanks to her amazing connections. She’s not only incredibly organized and professional, but also so much fun to work with. She knows how to get things done promptly and keeps the whole process stress-free. Honestly, we would have been lost without her. And let me just say, your wedding day WILL go smoothly with Morgan by your side. I cannot say enough positive things about MBK Events and how amazing this company truly is. My wedding day was magical and it was all thanks to Morgan.

Hello 💫 I wanted to a minute to introduce myself, My name is Lisa, I’m a wife & mama, and I’ve finally decided to take a passion of mine & turn it into a career. For 10 years coordinating events had been a hobby, and I’ve had the honor of being part of so many beautiful days. Now, I can’t wait to be part of YOUR most important days 🤍 We take care of your small details so you can enjoy your big day!

Events by Lisa was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding! Her communication was 10/10 - Lisa was so easy to reach out to and the connection was definitely there. The quality of their work and value was unmatched, as Lisa went above and beyond. She thought everything through and even when little things went wrong, she took care of them so quickly without worrying me or anyone else. For example, Lisa made sure to call all the vendors ahead of time to confirm, and turns out one vendor had the dates mixed up, but she got that figured out on the wedding day without even telling us so we wouldn't worry. She also had extra makeup on hand which was so helpful for touch-ups throughout the day. I think everyone needs to invest in a day-of coordinator, and Lisa was such a life-saver - I can't imagine how bumpy our day would have been if she wasn't there!

The quality of their work was amazing, providing beautiful, high-quality photos that captured all the special moments of our day. Diego, one of the photographers, even spent extra time with us because I ran a little late as a bride, and he never made me feel judged for any of my requests.

Honestly I ended up choosing Sean as my DJ for the wedding because he was the nicest and the most communicative out of everyone I contacted. I thought he did an awesome job at helping me through the process. Sean even was pretty flexible when I kept missing my zoom appointment (sorry about that) and didn't make me feel bad about it. He was great when it came to choosing songs for the big day. He also had the timeline on lock and was able to provide some insight. I love that I chose to include the photobooth because we can go back and look at all the photographs which is great. Every one of my guests loved that and was excited they could get each one afterwards. The printer was super quick too. I didn't even know we would have a personalized print with our wedding date on it which was a nice surprise. The only thing I would have liked would be that when the bride/groom requested a song that it would get played. Instead he asked if the venue was okay with it which I felt like wasn't a concern since I paid for both to be there. That was my only note for future events. Rick Flare Drip never got played and it's a banger. Sean also had another surprise which was Audio he recorded from the ceremony which I thought was a cute touch. Thank you for making our big day a success.

Hey y'all, I'm Meagan! This is typically the section where I should hype myself up, but instead, I’m going to actually tell you about me! I am a Northern California couples, elopement, and wedding photographer who encourages all my clients to include their dogs! Wondering where Lou Grace comes from? My business name is a tribute to my late grandfather, my guardian angel, and greatest supporter. I drink iced coffee year-round and I prefer Dutch Bros over Starbucks. I love country music but listen to just about everything and love a good song recommendation. Also, I’m obsessed with my dogs! Let me know if we have anything in common :)

Meagan was as easy and comfortable to work with as a best friend on my wedding day. She checked in with me throughout the day, gave me clear cues to look good and kept the whole experience with photos so lighthearted and fun. She pulled me away for photos at the perfect times so that I was actually able to enjoy my entire wedding day without feeling like it was one big photoshoot. I even got all my photos done in time to enjoy almost my entire cocktail hour! The photos she sent literally the next morning made my friends cry they were so beautiful. The work speaks for itself!!!

Kalyna was an absolute lifesaver for our wedding on November 2, 2019! With over 200 guests, I was worried about how everything would come together, but she made the entire day run seamlessly. From ensuring the ceremony timing was perfect to making sure we got all of our photos and still had plenty of time to enjoy the night with our guests, she handled it all flawlessly. One thing we are especially grateful for was her incredible network of preferred vendors. Just a week before the wedding, we found out our original caterer didn’t have the right permit for our venue, and we were devastated. But Kalyna stepped in immediately and had a fantastic replacement lined up—who not only delivered amazing food but also kept us way under budget. Her ability to handle last-minute crises with ease is truly unmatched. If you want someone who is professional, organized, and ready to take on anything that comes their way, Kalyna is the coordinator you need. We couldn’t have done it without her!

We toured Scribner Bend last November as a wedding venue option and immediately fell in love with the venue!!! We were looking for a venue that was intimate yet romantic and this venue checked off all of our boxes. The romantic, garden-esque setting is absolutely stunning and was everything we dreamed of for our wedding. From start to finish, working with the Scribner Bend team was such a breeze and truly made wedding planning fun and stress free. When we first booked, Shaye was the wedding facilitator and she was absolutely fantastic to work with. Later, we got to work with Hillary, their new wedding facilitator and she was just as amazing! So attentive, quick to answer questions and always accommodating of any last-minute requests. They really have such a well-oiled team and their amazing list of preferred vendors made the entire process seamless. We were married on a Friday which meant we had the wonderful bonus of hosting our rehearsal and rehearsal dinner at Scribner the night before. It was such a fun, easy experience and set the tone for the big day. Paesanos, their in-house caterer was fantastic (separate review) and they provided us with delicious wood-fired pizzas and two salads for our rehearsal dinner. All of our guests were raving about how good it was!! On our wedding day, we had access to the Bungalow for getting ready and wow!! it is such a beautiful, charming space. My bridesmaids and I loved spending the morning there. It has two make up stations that had great natural lighting and is great for making tiktoks! The guys had the Airstream, which was really unique and fun, though on our 100-degree wedding day it was a bit stuffy since the AC couldn't quite keep up (which is understandable for an Airstream!). Still, it was a cool and memorable space for them to get ready in. I cannot rave about Scribner Bend enough. The grounds are gorgeous, the staff is phenomenal and they truly helped create the most magical and smooth wedding day for us. I'd highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for a romantic, beautiful and well-supported place to say I do!!!!

Sienna's Sweets Shoppe was a pleasure to work with for our wedding. They were very communicative throughout the entire process, responding promptly to all of our questions and providing helpful guidance. The quality of their work was truly amazing - they designed our wedding cake to perfection based on the reference photo we provided, and the final result exceeded our expectations. We were beyond happy with the cake and can't wait to work with Sienna's Sweets Shoppe again for future events.

DJ Mark was the DJ for my daughter’s Halloween Themed wedding. Mark was amazing! He was everything we could have hoped for. The communication prior to the wedding was timely, efficient, and professional. He listened to all our requests and gathered all the info needed to make sure the day ran smoothly. We thought the planning app was a perfect touch for everyone. DJ Mark handled the music for the ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, and special dances perfectly. He had great energy and kept the dance floor going strong all night long! DJ Mark was the best!!! Highly recommend him and his Team!

Jess was so great to work with because she is easygoing and super sweet. She has a great eye for detail and can walk into any space and pick out the best spot for pictures. We used her for both our engagement photos as well as our wedding photos and are super happy with the results. She doesn't rush anything and also made us both feel comfortable in front of the camera. I highly recommend using her for her services and will definitely reach out in the future if we ever need professional photos! Thank you, Jess!

Hi, my name is Tatiana (Tanya). I’m a photographer specializing in weddings, engagements, and families — capturing real moments with a clean, timeless, and honest approach. While my signature style is true-to-life and natural, vintage/cinematic editing is also available upon request. Based in Sacramento, available for destination weddings and intimate celebrations.

Tania is more than just a professional photographer. She’s very down to earth and kind, the kind of photographer that makes you feel more than just a client. She doesn’t just take photos, she advices of how to pose and fixes anything in the way of shots to make them look the best she can. She makes you feel beautiful and special in every way. Tanya makes you feel very comfortable working with her and does all she can to accommodate the photos you ask her to take. Before our wedding, Tania made sure to know exactly what we wanted as a married couple. She respected our ideas and style and fulfilled them in every way. And although weddings can be hectic and stressful, taking photos on our wedding day with her was enjoyable and fun! We look back on our wedding photos all the time and are so grateful for all the beautifully captured moments! Thank you for your work! We recommend you to everyone all the time.

We appreciate David and all he did for us on our wedding day! During the day, he kept the music flowing and made announcements when needed. Something to note is that he did claim to be able to fade the music in and out, but with the bridal party, and the bride down the aisle, there was not a single fade in and out. It was a small thing, but as a bride, I notice things like this. He played out playlists that we curated for cocktail hour, but did take a lot of requests (we think) towards the end of the night. We think this because there were a lot of songs on our dancefloor playlist that did not get played. With that being said, he played great songs that kept people on the dance floor and had people singing along! I would recommend David!
