Megan at Privé was an outstanding coordinator and huge help for my husband(!), Zach, and I during our wedding this summer. We got married at my parents' home in the Seattle area, but we were living in Madison, WI and Chicago, IL respectively over the course of our eight months or so working with Megan. Nonetheless, Megan found time to work with us, making three-way conferences calls at all kinds of times of day to help make sure our wedding was exactly like we wanted it to be. On the day of, Megan and her staff did an incredible job making sure that we had everything we needed, from wine with dinner to pens for signing our wedding license. They even whipped up some salad dressing in my parents' kitchen when the caterer forgot to send it. With a wedding at private residence there were all kinds of small snafus that could have been bothersome, but not a single guest noticed a single hiccup. In fact, they all commented on how seamless the day was, and we attribute that to Megan and her staff. They even found time to clean up afterward, making the next day a breeze! We cannot recommend Megan highly enough! You will not regret having her be a part of your wedding. read more

Working with Prive Events was money well spent. Krista and Landis helped us create our dream wedding. Landis was our day of planner and she was AMAZING. Krista worked with us leading up to the day and she was always willing to answer any questions we had. They were also very organized and caring throughout the whole planning process. They were so helpful since this was our first wedding, and it was great to have their expertise. Would hire them for other events coming our way!!!!! We love you two, thank you for everything!!!!! read more

Privé Events - Wow! So nice, we got a card from Prive Events after our wedding! - Wedding Planning Near Me - Redmond, Washington

Krista and Prive Events- Simple the BEST! My fiancee and I got paired with Krista due to the venue we picked requiring a day-of coordinator, but Krista and her team at Prive did so much more. Not only did Krista give us the most awesome vendor recommendations, which helped save us so much time in finding the perfect ones, but also she got every single detail right and never missed a single thing. Krista is simply the best, not only is she super responsive, fun to work with, but also you can tell her passion in what she does from the level of professionalism she displayed all throughout the 8 months we worked with her. We had so many questions and concerns and she was always the first person we asked for guidance and we were never disappointed! She keeps us on track, gets us to hand off everything on the big day, and even had time to ask our friends to give us a moment to ourselves after the ceremony which was so perfect because the day really did just fly by with very little alone time with just the bride and groom. We simply could not be happier with Krista and her team, her knowledge of the venue often exceeded those of their own staff, so if you are planning a wedding in one of the Woodinville wineries, hire Krista! Her and her team will make sure you have a stress free day and you can trust her to take care of everything you did or didn't think of. Thank you and your team so very much Krista, for executing our vision for the big day so perfectly and then some! We cannot thank you enough. Cheers, Fremily read more

Krista and her team at Privé Events are savvy, experienced, and very easy to work with. Having staffed gala fundraisers and other events, I very much appreciate Krista's organized, detail-oriented approach - she and her team are all about making your event what you want it to be. My fiancé and I booked a wedding package with our venue that included day-of coordination, and we were lucky enough to be paired with Krista in that role. She and her team have pulling off the perfect wedding down to a science, and will ensure all your questions are answered and everything is in place for the celebration you want. We were originally scheduled for a June 2020 wedding, so we were heavily impacted by COVID-19. We initially rescheduled to September 2020 and ultimately ended up cancelling our original plans in favor of a very small, family-only ceremony. Krista was the best resource we could have asked for about changing public health guidelines, and was very straightforward with us about what our options were for celebrating during this stressful time. Although she and her team ultimately won't be part of our wedding this year due to the changes we've made in response to the pandemic, we would work with Krista again without hesitation, and hope that she'll be coordinating an anniversary or vow renewal celebration for us in the future - one with all the hugs and dancing we wish we could have this year! read more

I cannot recommend Privé Events enough! Megan was an absolute lifesaver. She basically made everything happen and ensured it was stress free, exactly what we wanted, and as perfect as can be. She was essential in making our big event at Canlis a huge success. She handled every last detail, the vendors, the venue... all of it. The best money spent was to hire her. I will not hesitate to do so again for future events. Thank you Megan and Privé! read more

I used Prive events as my planner for my wedding at JM cellars. They were a blessing! I thought I could do everything on my own since I'm a pretty organized person. When touring and eventually booking the venue JM kept saying they only required a day of coordinator but actually they require a partial planner. Originally I was peeved because that was not my plan but I'm so so happy I booked Prive. Krista was amazing from the start. She has so much experience with planning and her experience with my venue paid off. When I had some freak outs (hello pandemic wedding) and wrote her emails she would pick up the phone and give me a call immediately . I really felt like she cared. Landis was my day of point person and she was also amazing. She made sure to have cocktails and a plate of passed apps waiting for my husband and I after the ceremony. She was readily available for anything I needed day of. She and her assistant helped set up everything in the short time the venue allowed and made it look gorgeous! I really credit Prive with my smooth stress free wedding! Can't say enough about them!!! Use them trust me you won't regret it!!! I'm so grateful I had them as my planners. read more

My husband and I worked with Megan at Prive Events as the day-of coordinator for our post-elopement wedding celebration this spring at the Fremont Abbey, and we can't recommend Prive highly enough. Far beyond just coordinating the day of the event, Megan met with the two of us several times in advance to make sure the day would be exactly what we wanted. We threw some curveball concerns at her (guests with the tendency to get rowdy, groomsmen with toast nerves, parents disagreeing with us, etc.) and she remained totally unfazed. Throughout the planning, we felt like she understood our vision for the day and we trusted her judgment, so when she told us something we wanted wouldn't work (like hanging paper lanterns from the 12-foot ceiling while standing on a shaky metal ladder), we knew it was for a good reason. On the day of our celebration, which included a ring-warming ceremony and reception, Megan and her assistant (Amanda, I think) took care of things that we didn't even think of. We were damn disorganized about some things, and it only took until about 11 AM for me to make my first "oh sh*t" call to her. She took everything in stride and handled challenges behind the scenes while we were getting ready. In a rush, I threw some of the decorations into a box with no directions for what went where, and I didn't have time to think about what happened to them for several hours. That evening, I saw the Megan had almost psychically set up things how I would have done it myself, including the photo of my late father that meant a lot to have displayed at the reception. Plus, Megan and Amanda pushed a rolling coat rack up the long wheelchair ramp...in heels, after a freak hailstorm...so our guests could get their coats without going back downstairs. Bonus points for badassery. Before we met Megan, my husband and I were on the fence about using a coordinator; we really wanted to do things ourselves. But working with Prive Events was one of the best decisions we made during our planning, and also some of the best money we spent. Wedding coordination WIN! read more

We recently hired Privé Events to help with an informal Welcome Dinner to start off our wedding weekend. Our caterer planned to set up and deliver food for a buffet, and to be honest, we didn't think we needed to hire anyone and were pretty annoyed that the venue decided to require it just a week before the event. Well, we were wrong. The team was phenomenal, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. The three staff members were upbeat, very helpful, and willing to accommodate last minute requests with smiles on their faces. They worked quickly and made everyone feel welcome. Lindsey, the lead, was extraordinarily professional and kind, and she made everything run smoothly. We appreciated their expertise with regard to staffing numbers and anticipating our needs, and especially their responsiveness via phone, email, and even text. By contrast, Invisible Hostess promised a quote within a few hours or by the next morning when we first called, but we didn't get an email back until a week later (a few days before the event), and there was no quote. So my advice is this: even if you think you probably don't need to hire an event hosting company, you should just do it. And when you decide you're going to hire one, make your life easy and go with Privé. read more

I highly recommend Krista. From the moment I met Krista, we hit it off and I could tell she was trustworthy and knew what she was doing. She is so sweet and nice, and an awesome planner. She was there every step of the way during our planning and made sure that we were always on track and didn't forget anything. I am from Boston and she was very flexible and accommodating to our time change and traveling schedule. If we had issues with any of our vendors she would go to bat for us and made sure we got what we wanted and deserved. Everyone in our wedding party/family members/ and vendors commented how organized she was. They had never seen such a meticulous timeline for a wedding. Day of, I wanted to make sure we, or any guest, would not have to worry about any of the logistics behind the wedding; set up, coordinating with vendors, tear down and clean up; etc.; and she definitely delivered that. Everything went off without a hitch, and if anything did go wrong she problem solved and made sure it was not an issue. Our guest still keep complimenting how great and fun our wedding was. We also hired her for design, and she did a great job helping us aesthetically. Her knowledge and connections in the industry are a huge plus. You won't go wrong hiring Krista. I don't know how we would have done it without her! read more

Professional. Friendly. Exceptional. Knowledgeable. Attentive. These are just five of the words that describe why Prive gets a 5 star in my book. We recently used Prive for a festive event at a residence for bartending services. Their road to 5 stars began as soon as we showed interest in their service. They always communicated in a professional manner, and followed up with key information and insightful questions. The real magic happened on-site. From the moment that Megan and Krista arrived they were unbelievable helpful and responsive. They jumped in and lent a hand to every part of the event. It did not matter that we hired them for one part of the event, it was clear that a successful event was their aim. When they had "down time" at the bars, they always found other ways to be useful. From maintaining a tidy bar area to bussing, this company proves that they understand events from soup to nuts and have a can-do team attitude. I would and plan to use them in the future! I sense that there are many more skills and talents on the prive team that I have yet to tap into! read more

Working with Krista and Landis was an absolute pleasure! They made the process so easy and were extremely organized. My fiance and I had both started new jobs and were sooo busy so having them keep us on track and help us get through all the details was super helpful! They are amazing at what they do and made it so that we could completely focus on enjoying our wedding day and not have to stress about any of the set up. I will be recommending Prive Events to all of my friends who get married! read more

Megan Main was my coordinator and she is absolutely amazing! She's so easy to work with and we got along great. She kept up with all the details and made sure everything went smoothly for my wedding reception. She did not let anything slip through the cracks! Her referral for my caterer resulted in the absolute best wedding food I've ever had. I took leftovers back to the hotel afterwards and devoured them. I still think about that food lol. I absolutely 100% recommend her! read more

Megan from Prive is basically the best! We booked the Lake Washington Rowing Club (one of the venues that Prive manages) for our wedding and working with her was super easy. She was always responsive to questions and tried to help us out in any way that she could. She met us at the venue various times before the wedding and let us bombard her with questions. She was always super professional and fun to be around! She also made sure to follow up with us after the wedding to say congrats and see how everything went, which was very thoughtful! We also used Prive for our bartending services. Again, awesome. Easy to set up, reasonably priced, professional, super helpful at the wedding, and really fun to work with. Can't ask for more than that! read more

Privé was amazing to work with and I would recommend them to any couple thinking of hiring a wedding coordinator. We worked with Megan throughout our process leading up to our big day and she was on top of everything. We were so stress free during our wedding day and knew everything was taken care of. Megan was so detail oriented and helped us make sure we had everything checked off our list. She even did this while stepping into our planning process a bit late in the game when our original coordinator became double booked after losing an employee. So the fact that she totally crushed it and helped us feel at ease after the stress of losing our original coordinator was so helpful! Worth every penny, don't think twice about hiring them! read more

I cannot even begin to describe our experience with Prive Events... Our event coordinator was Krista. SHE IS AMAZING! We had our wedding reception at 415 Westlake in Seattle. Krista coordinated everything and brought her fabulous staff along. I didn't have to stress about anything. The evening was a night to remember and I honestly couldn't have pulled it off without Krista. Everything went smoothly - even our guests were impressed and noticed how well everything was put together. Before the event, she always made herself available via e-mail and phone, (also in person) she took care of every single little detail, she even contacted ALL of my vendors. No one called my phone the day of. I was so impressed by her and her servers. If you are looking for staffing and an event coordinator, please contact Krista @ Prive Events! You will be so glad you did! read more

I love Prive! They helped us with our wedding at Lake Washington Rowing Club last July and I've been meaning to write a glowing review since then. We worked with Krista and Megan. They were always available, positive, and friendly. They were very flexible, especially since we had a holiday wedding. I went in to check something the venue about ten times in the last two weeks before the wedding and Rachel accomodated me with a smile and reassurance every time. She even stayed available for us over the holiday. We coudn't believe how much service we were receiving for just a small venue cost. We really couldn't have done it without them. If I could give them more than five stars, I would.They are wonderful! read more

Megan was fantastic! As we we are living in SoCal, we needed a planner that could handle all of the details (giving us recommendations, emailing quotes, telling us what is/isnt a good value, checking out venues, some light design plus all the craziness of the day) and she handled it all without much direction. Our weekend was one of the best weekends of our lives - what a perfect 4 days thanks to Megan and her team! Hire her and don't go for the day of package - let them do it. They are flexibile so you won't feel locked in on any one package if it doesn't work for you. Thank you, Megan and Prive! read more

We had an exceptional experience with Prive Events! Krista helped me through the entire wedding planning process to make it a dream come true from smallest details. Krista was personable, warm, easy to talk to and a great communicator, completely available to me when I needed her. Our wedding day was run incredibly smooth without a hitch all because of Krista's amazing ability to see the whole picture and deal with any unanticipated needs. I could not have chosen better! read more

Megan and her assists with Prive Events made our night everything we imagined it would be and more. Before we interviewed Megan we had met with another wedding planner and took her to our venue (a private venue in the groom's aunt backyard). When meeting with this planner she told us that we could have the wedding there, but she would have to charge us more money from all of her vendors since it is down about 100 flights of stairs. We scratched that idea very quickly and started looking for a new coordinator. We interviewed Megan and immediately felt put to ease. She reassured us that whatever we wanted it would happen, unlike with our previous experience. We had an interview scheduled for another coordinator, but after meeting with Megan we cancelled that and just hired her without a second thought. Megan was everything we had hoped for. Anytime I had a question about anything wedding related, from invitation wording to where to find sparklers, Megan had an answer and was quick to reply (which I have found is not always the case with wedding vendors). Where her and her team really shined was the days leading up to the event. Our venue was a bit of a challenge since it was down the stairs, all outside and next to the water. There were issues with the lighting and the speakers (which I found out about after the wedding). I never had to worry about anything going wrong because I knew I had Megan to fall back on. Throughout the evening she kept checking on us to make sure everything was ok which was also reassuring. I would definitely recommend her to anyone I knew getting married. She gave us peace of mind and allowed us to be in the moment and remember what a special day it was. read more

We hired Prive Events for day of coordination and bartending services for our wedding and they were fantastic! Megan was our day-of-coordinator and she was phenomenal. Upon meeting Megan and talking through my vision - I immediately knew we would be in good hands. She asked all the right questions and provided guidance every step of the way. She was always available to meet and worked through every detail without making it feel overwhelming. I very much appreciated Megan's ability to think outside the box to make things happen. She was also very patient in working with our vendors - especially the unresponsive ones. The team at Prive really took care of us on our big day - they were on top of everything, including making sure we (the bride & groom) ate! The best combination of drill sergeants and problem solvers which made for a wonderful wedding day! read more

Megan from Prive Events was an amazing coordinator! She went above and beyond what was required of her in so many instances. Megan was professional, organized and most of all - she knew exactly the right questions to ask. The night went off without a hitch, everything went how it was planned out and previously discussed. I had a very particular vision, and Megan executed it perfectly. On the day of, I felt completely relaxed because I knew I was in good hands. Throughout the planning process Megan was a great person to turn to for advice regarding aspects of a wedding you didn't even know existed! I'm telling you, she thinks of absolutely everything. She is clearly experienced and thought of things throughout the planning process, that I surely would have missed if doing it alone. She also has great connections with vendors, giving us great suggestions for companies to choose. Overall, Megan made the day very special, stress-free and seamless. I would absolutely recommend her services. read more

I used this company to bartend an outdoor party at my home. My initial contact with the owner was great. She was responsive to questions and quick to get back to me. The day of the event Morgan, the bartender, was AMAZING! He arrived 30 minutes before his scheduled shift. He was very personable and did a great job setting up/organizing the bar. After he was finished setting up, instead of just waiting around for guest to arrive, he asked if there was any thing he could do to help with the rest of the preparations. I would definitely use and recommend this company again. read more

I interviewed a handful of wedding planners; after only a few minutes with Megan, I knew Prive Events was head and shoulders above anyone else I met. Her responsiveness and attention to detail from day one all the way through the last vendor departing our wedding venue was impeccable. Megan helped my husband and I develop the perfect team to make our dream wedding come true. The Prive team is top-notch, provided options and ideas throughout the experience and made our wedding simply the most enjoyable day possible. Megan kept track of our budget, our timeline (to the minute), our vendors... everything in such a professional and caring manner. Megan has a gift of incredible organization and a one-of-a-kind character that makes you feel like you are her number one priority, even when she is juggling a million tasks. Her team was able to provide options for every single aspect of planning a wedding: flowers, invitations, food, photographers, DJs, etc. She is well known, respected and praised in the community. I absolutely cannot imagine our wedding day without Megan and Prive Events. I recommend their services to anyone who is looking for event planning and/or any of the other services they provide. My wedding was better than I could have imagined thanks to Megan. Overall best experience I could imagine with an event planner. Caring. Professional. Connected. Trustworthy. Reliable. Excellent! read more

Privé Events - Wedding Planning Near Me - Redmond, Washington

We hired Megan two weeks before our June wedding to be our day-of coordinator, and oh are we glad we did. She turned our scribbled-down schedule into a grand masterplan, coordinated with all of our vendors and helpers, and relieved the biggest stresses from our shoulders. If someone text me with a question, I could refer them to her and not have to enter into a back-and-forth question and answer game with them. Megan nailed down the details we'd missed (pretty important ones, too!) and was extremely through with every single thing. Instead of the stressful wedding morning I'd envisioned with me as the go-to organizer, I ended up having the most enjoyable relaxing pre-wedding experience that meant I could truly experience what it felt like to just be a bride. I turned up to our first look feeling as though I was floating on air and it was all because of Megan and her trusted expertise. If there's any advice we're giving to our newly engaged friends, it's to at least hire a day-of coordinator, and to definitely choose Prive Events. read more

Working with Krista at Prive Events was an incredible and unforgettable experience. We hired her as our "Day-Of-Coordinator" and I felt like it made the last month leading up to my wedding such a breeze. We were in clear contact every single day and she created a timeline with every detail to ensure the day would go perfectly. There were some points where I couldn't make up my own mind and she helped me by stepping in and giving her professional opinion, which helped tremendously and spoke for itself on the day of the wedding. When I felt like her services could not have been any better prior to the wedding, she really went above and beyond on the wedding day. She was working hard the entire time to make sure everything was in its correct place and that things were happening at the correct time. She was there waiting for me with a glass of wine at the end of the aisle after we made our exit, and that moment (along with every other moment she was present) just made me feel so comfortable and relaxed, knowing everything was in her hands and she rocked it. Krista constantly put my needs and wishes first and did her best to make sure my wedding day was everything I had dreamed of, and it was. I highly recommend Prive Events, it was the best wedding gift I could have given myself! read more

Prive Events has been a life changer. I hired them for my destination wedding planning and coordination. I was able to work with the owner and her team and I have to say they were instrumental to my wedding happening. They went through every single detail of the wedding, what I needed, all the things I never knew or would have thought of and most importantly they did it with such kindness, utmost concern for my happiness and supplier customer service! 5 stars all the way. When you're planning a wedding whether local or out of country like I was, I would highly, highly recommend hiring them, they are worth the investment times 10! The peace of mind knowing that someone is managing all your request, guest needs, other vendors, etc was a night and day difference from trying to tackle it all myself. They were so knowledgable and gave such guidance as to what things to think about, what to do, when, and how may be the best or most economical way. It was obvious Prive' Events knows all the in's and out's and their experience over the last 10 years in the industry speaks for itself. I also appreciated them going upbove and beyond, making recommendations to current plans to improve on, offering to get hands on and just really taking on whatever task was needed or requested to make the whole process (production) as smooth and stress free as possible. AND they are SO fun to work with. Just really awesome people, I can't say enough good things and will defiantly be referring them and using them in the future for local parties, baby showers and hosted bar events!! read more

Worth. Every. Penny. Thank you Megan! Our venue was sort of unique, a three day, two night event out on the Olympic Peninsula. We had rented out a summer camp on Lake Crescent, which seemed amazing at the time of booking but then insanely overwhelming when we realized we had to bring EVERYTHING in. And I mean, EVERYTHING. I didn't know where to start and even after we'd booked a lot of vendors and thought we had a lot of stuff planned, meeting with Megan proved there were so many things we had over looked. Clearly Megan has done this for a while and it was so great that we let the professionals show us what was needed. We had rented a refrigerated truck, hauled in SO many things for our 160 over night guests and I can say, the day of I was able to just relax and get married. The best decision I ever made was to hire a day of coordinator. Although, she was a huge part of the planning as well. I've also had several friends get married the past couple of years and comparing notes with their day of planners, Megan went above and beyond. read more
