The best event planners in vancouver

We believe we are people first and planners second. We want your connection to be easy and organic with us. We are active listeners. A wedding or event is stressful but beautiful. We are here to ensure you have the best day ever!

A little about our story. We met at our corporate 9-5 job as Vancouver Event Planners. Eventually one played a Disney playlist and the other offered many snacks, and thus our friendship was born. We owned our own companies prior (Coastal Fern Weddings & Halcyon Events Company). We continuously hired one another on each others events, as we realized the day was so much smoother when we had one another for support.

In September 2018 we launched our new brand, Say Events! We recognized the event world is crazy as it is wonderful and fun, and it is so much better to run a company together. We balance one another like yin and yang. We promise you, your event will be much more successful with two planners on your side!
