For the couple who has a vision and needs someone to carry it — from the first vendor call to the final dance. I specialize in partial planning and full production across Northern California and beyond, so you can stop managing the details and start enjoying the celebration you've been dreaming of.
THE WORK I LOVE MOST
MEET THE FOUNDER AND CEO
I've spent my career inside Northern California's most respected venues: assisting top planners at luxury properties, working in venue sales in San Francisco, and learning this industry from every angle. Now I run the room.
I know what venues need, what vendors look for, and how to make a big, complicated day feel effortless. Couples come to me for calm and stay for the details I catch before they ever think of them.

She was incredibly organized, ensuring every detail was accounted for, and her communication throughout the planning process was impeccable. On the wedding day, Kaiya was a calming presence, handling last-minute changes and unexpected issues with grace and efficiency… Kaiya exceeded our expectations.
I had the absolute pleasure of working with Kaiya for Zoe and Trevor’s wedding at Grace Cathedral and the Fairmont San Francisco. This was a large, detail-filled celebration with multiple locations, outfit changes, entertainment, and an after-party, and Kaiya handled every moving piece with complete calm and confidence. She anticipated what was needed before anyone had to ask and made sure Zoe and Trevor could genuinely enjoy their celebration. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to any couple looking for a planner they can trust completely with their wedding day.
Zoe & Trevor's wedding at Grace Cathedral & the Fairmont San Francisco
Working with Kaiya was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Throughout the entire planning process, she was incredibly helpful, remaining flexible and available for meetings that worked around our demanding work schedules. She took the lead on organizing and communicating with our vendors, and when the big day finally arrived, she and her organized team ensured every detail followed our timeline perfectly. Beyond the logistics, Kaiya made sure my husband and I were well tended to all day, allowing us to truly enjoy ourselves while she brought our specific vision to life. Our guests are still raving about how wonderful the wedding was, and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a seamless, stress-free experience!
Working with Kaiya was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. She made what could have been an incredibly stressful process feel calm and manageable. What amazed me most was that Kaiya was always on top of things before the thought even crossed my mind — every detail, every follow up, every timeline adjustment, she already had it handled. That level of care is incredibly rare. If you get Kaiya as your wedding planner, you are truly setting yourself up to have the wedding of your dreams with someone who GENUINELY CARES about you, your family, and your vision.
I am SO glad that we entrusted Kaiya with our event and room block management. She negotiated and secured a great room block, led communications with vendors and a challenging venue team, and even procured a last-minute rain tent three days before the wedding so we could still use the entire venue space we paid for. She advised me through a sticky personal guest situation that resulted in a totally peaceful wedding day. I didn't see much of Kaiya on the wedding day — but I DID see our vision come fully to life. Kaiya truly allowed me to be a guest at my own party and I am SO grateful for that.
If I could give Kaiya more than five stars, I would. I threw an absolutely over-the-top amount of details, ideas, and moving pieces at her, and somehow she handled every single one without ever making me feel like I was too much. She was incredibly organized, proactive, and calm from beginning to end, and multiple other vendors even went out of their way to tell me how impressed they were with how on top of everything she was. Because of Kaiya, I actually got to enjoy my own wedding instead of worrying whether everything was being handled — she took all the chaos I handed her and made it feel seamless. I would choose her again and again.
Kaiya and her team were absolutely incredible, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. She took the time to understand not just the logistics, but also what mattered to us personally, and she consistently helped turn a very complicated weekend into something that felt calm and manageable. I’m someone who cares deeply about details, and by the time the wedding arrived, I genuinely felt that I could hand things over to Kaiya and know they would be taken care of. Our wedding weekend was one of the happiest and most memorable experiences of our lives.
