Hi! My name is Tiffany Rivers, owner of Rivers Event Planning. I have been in the hospitality industry for 15 years. My journey started in culinary school as a young adult and then as an Event Banquet Captain for various catering companies on the Central Coast. My love for serving others lead me to receive a degree in Hospitality Management!

  • Photographer
  • Classic style

  • Serves Santa Margarita, CA

I grew up on California's Central Coast and obtained a minor in Photography from Cal Poly SLO. My love for photography started in high school and has always been my sole aspiration. As a photographer, I understand that photos hold cherished memories that last a lifetime. Whether it's with family, friends, or loved ones, photos capture precious moments that we can revisit time and time again. These snapshots serve as a visual reminder of the joys we've experienced and the people we've shared them with.

If you’re looking for someone professional, funny, personable, and skilled, Andy is your guy! Getting quotes for photographers can be very intimidating and stressful. When I first reached out to Andy, I had a feeling that he was going to be the perfect match for us (and his price options are reasonable and affordable!). He kept in contact during the months leading up to our wedding, answering all of my questions and sending a list of questions for us to answer. We ended up pre-choosing what family/group pictures were most important to us and providing names. Andy had that list with him at our wedding and stuck to it, keeping us on schedule, but was willing to take on-the-spot added groups, too. He captured all of the moments that mattered to me, from the first look to the first dance. He took beautiful wedding party photos, posed and candid. He was very professional and able to take family group shots while being swarmed by hummingbirds. He made us laugh and smile. Even better, we received a small set of photos 2 days later, and all of the photos within 2 weeks. 11/10 would recommend!!

Kari and her entire staff were amazing!!! I want to get married again just to have Kari be part of it again. Anytime I sent a 3 am email in a stress panic, she made me feel totally normal and sane again. Our guests all raved about the bartenders she had for the wedding for us. Kari had another wedding that she was already committed to on our day but she still made a point to deliver our florals in person (she did all our flowers too - AMAZING) and stopped by before she left to say hi and give a big hug. In place of her on wedding day was an equally amazing gal Korah!! We can not say enough amazing things about Korah also. She was there for anything and everything all day on the wedding. Hire Kari and her crew - you will not be disappointed and will want to plan a second wedding just to spend more time with them all!!! And when it came to planning and all the little details - don't even stress about any of it because she will have it all handled perfectly and blow your expectations out of the water for it all!! And all the vendors that she suggests - book them all. Don't even question it because they will all be the best vendors you could of imagined!

I've always had a love for color and light, and a passion for landscapes and people. Ever since highschool and into college photography was just something that, no pun intended, caught my eye. I've been shooting weddings for 6 years now and there's nothing Id rather be doing. I'm married to the love of my life Rachel, sandwiches are my favorite food and I love long walks on the beach. Seriously I do :)

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we booked Dylan Kyle Photography, we knew we were in good hands. We chose to get married at a location across the country where we had never even visited. When I first spoke with Dylan he was extremely helpful with details I may need to consider in the area, as well as recommendations for leisure activities and must-see spots! Dylan was incredibly responsive, adaptable, and understanding throughout the entire planning process. His communication style put us at ease, and his high-quality, gorgeous work exceeded our expectations. Dylan and Rachel guided us through the day with ease and were even helpful with non-photography things, like teaching us how to properly cut the cake! I always freeze in front of the camera, but they were great at coaching us during the posed photos, and the candid shots we have are ones I'm obsessed with. We have a wide variety of beautiful photos to choose from, and I would recommend Dylan Kyle Photography to anyone looking for a wedding photographer. Truly, using their services was the best wedding decision we made - they made the day perfect.

Dave Tate made our wedding a dream! He played as the guests arrived before the ceremony and really set the tone for a beautiful and heartfelt wedding. He was very professional, on time, set everything up seamlessly, and was great to work with. He made beautiful arrangements of the songs that we chose to walk down the aisle to and he played and sang a song in the ceremony. It added SO much to have such quality live music on our special day. His voice is amazing and his guitar playing is perfect. Cannot recommend him highly enough! He is the best in the area by far. So many of our guests commented on what an amazing musician he was and how much they loved what he played and sang. Thank you for adding so much to our unforgettable day, Dave!!

I am a lifetime Central Coast resident, born and raised in Templeton. I have spent most of my career in the hospitality industry. It wasn't until I started a job in catering management that I realized I had a passion for weddings. I continued doing catering management for 2 years, and then I started assisting all of my favorite wedding planners for 2 years. Most recently I landed a job in Venue Management and that is when I knew I wanted my own wedding planning business. In my free time I love to go hiking, lift weights and spend time with my family, including our 4 rescue pups. I look forward to meeting you!

From the very first interaction, her communication style was insightful, clear, empathetic, consistent, and reliable - she truly listened to our needs and vision. The quality of her work was fantastic, with great attention to detail and consistent, high-quality service throughout the planning process. Sara dealt with some family drama for us, which was a huge relief, and she even brought props so we didn't have to buy them. She communicated with us daily to ensure everything was on track. Sara is amazing as both a coordinator and a person, and we're so glad we got to know her. She provided incredible value and we're thrilled with the work she did to make our special day perfect.

I don't just capture moments, I ✨create✨ them! I'm for the couples who want photos that look candid, but are actually directed so you never feel awkward!! If you're sarcastic or a dog person, I like you already...if you want emotive photos that feel like art...HIT MY LINE.

I had been following Tessa's incredible work for a few years, so the moment we got engaged, she was the first vendor we reached out to—we knew she had to be the one to capture our elopement. She exceeded every expectation we had. Her artistic vision, fun energy, and incredible eye for detail made the experience truly unforgettable. She was also fantastic at communicating throughout the entire process, making everything seamless and stress-free. In fact, when we started to plan our reception, I quickly realized I couldn't imagine not having her be a part of that day as well—and again, she exceeded every expectation. Her talent behind the camera speaks for itself, but beyond that, she is just an all-around incredible human—kind, fun, and a joy to be around. We’ve already decided we need to come up with more occasions just so we can hang out with her again. Highly, highly recommend!

I absolutely adore the small details and believe each wedding is truly unique to each couple.

Weddings have been a part of my life since I was six years old. Growing up as the youngest of eight cousins, someone was always getting married. The summer of my 21st birthday, I started my career with weddings at an Alaskan lodge hosting ten weddings that first summer. Since then I've worked in floral design, photography, & the food/wine industries. In 2017, I toured California working event logistics at five different festivals, including Coachella.

She and her team not only handled set up, decorating, and takedown, but she also offered kindness and joy to us throughout our time working with her.

Moonglow Floral is a boutique floral design studio that creates extraordinary floral experiences for discerning clients hosting events on the Central Coast of California. We strive to create a concierge experience for busy clients through a streamlined planning process, clear communication, and creative guidance. Moonglow Floral strives to be a safe and inclusive business for BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ clients as well as a safe vendor for all ages, bodies, and abilities. Moonglow Floral is happy to collaborate with clients to incorporate cultural or religious traditions into their floral designs. Inclusivity is an ongoing intention.

It's hard for me to put into words the glowing review that Tessa deserves. From start to finish she was so attentive and receptive to our vision. We had multiple text, email, phone call exchanges and she was so patient with me as I was constantly changing my mind or adding something in the mix. She provided amazing input as well. I am so happy that I could send her my Pinterest board and screenshot of ideas and she just completely made it come to life. Her expertise made our planning experience seamless, as we could completely trust in her talent and her vision. I almost cried when she brought in my bouquet as it was exactly as I imagined, and somehow even better. Everything from the dining table florals, to the bar set up, and the ceremony florals completely blew our already high expectations out of the water and the arrangements will always be a highlight of our day and photos. Something I also loved about Moonglow is that Tessa provides extra cuttings for things like the details photos, cake table, etc included, that you may not necessarily think of but because of her experience, she knows that these are needed. She even provided things like extra water vases for my bouquet and the bridesmaid's bouquets to incorporate into the reception space. Not only is Tessa extremely talented, she is so wonderful to work with and so kind. She really is a one stop shop as the creator of the florals as well as the person doing the set up, this was so incredible as it's her vision coming to life from start to finish. Her responsiveness and professionalism throughout this process was 10/10 as well. We couldn't be happier and we still get compliments on our wedding florals! THANK YOU Moonglow Floral!!

As a food stylist, event planner, and business owner with over 20 years in hospitality and catering, I believe the smallest details hold the most meaning. I’m drawn to beauty in how a space feels, how colors and textures come together, and how every element flows effortlessly. When couples trust me with their celebration, I listen deeply and design with intention, care, and heart — so they can feel calm, present, and completely immersed in their day. Proud ally and safe space for the LGBTQ+ and BIPOC community. Best wishes and warmest regards, LouLou

I’ve worked with LouLou Events going on about ten times now, both personally (for friends and family gatherings), as well as professionally (we at Edible Magazine hire her for both her food styling, and event production). I'm not only in awe of her style and the aesthetic she brings to any event or setup; I also appreciate her work ethic and processes. She’s quick and efficient in her responses (a dream for my type-A personality), is dependable, and has an unmatched eye for design. Everything, I mean everything, she creates is beautiful. The events always feel special and thoughtfully done. They leave a lasting impression on guests -- it is exactly what I hope for. Over time I’ve relied on her for all kinds of needs, from production and food styling for various magazine shoots; event management for gatherings; tablescape design for a cookbook party; food setups for long shoot days. She’s someone I return to again and again because she is professional, kind, and delivers every single time. I would recommend her to anybody.

We couldn’t be happier with Pete for our recent ranch-style wedding. From the very first meeting, he truly listened to our vision of an intimate, heartfelt celebration and brought it to life in the most beautiful way. He handled every detail with such care and creativity — from coordinating the DJ setup, lights, photography to making sure the barbecue feast was to take place at the right time and music vibes flowed perfectly. What stood out most was how he went above and beyond — coming early to fix last-minute issues, adding thoughtful personal touches we hadn’t even thought of, and keeping everything running smoothly so we could actually relax and enjoy our day.

I am a luxury portrait and wedding photographer on the beautiful Central Coast (with a stint spent in the Midwest). I discovered my love for photography while at Allan Hancock College and have spent the last 4 years learning, growing, and perfecting my style and flow. I took a few years to travel around and find where I wanted to end up, and, of course, after spending a few years in the Midwest with my husband, my inspiring home called me back, and we, and our little boy, Stetson, now live in Nipomo, CA. We spend our free time walking on the beach and mountain biking.

Isabella has an amazing eye for great photos! She was super sweet and really loved experimenting with different sceneries, props, etc. I could have never asked someone better to do my photoshoot for graduation!

Old Fashioned Lounge came out to my house for my daughter's engagement party and put on a great show for everyone. David used his cocktail bitters and mixers to help us create a special drink menu that turned out amazing. Highly recommended since he is very punctual and easy to work with.

Since 2008, I have been dedicated to making dream weddings come to life. My passion for being a wedding planner stems from the joy and fulfillment that comes with creating unforgettable moments for couples on one of the most significant days of their lives. Being born and raised on the Central Coast is a true blessing. I've grown to appreciate this unique and quirky place I call home as the years have passed. When I'm not flexing my planning muscles you can probably find me still in the mix at a local event, concert or winery. I'm a dog mom, a tiny human mom, and a lover of all things Italian.

We booked Monica for month-of coordination, and she immediately acted like a true partner. She offered clear advice, scheduled check-ins, and tracked our progress so there were no surprises. When the weekend arrived, she took over smoothly and made everything easy. She managed setup, coordinated every vendor, kept the timeline tight, solved problems quietly, and oversaw teardown. On Sunday morning our items were already condensed, labeled, and staged by the exit, so pickup took minutes. Beyond all the compliments on the wedding, we heard constant praise for Monica herself. She is organized, calm, and relentlessly helpful. We could not recommend her more.
