McKenna is amazing!

McKenna was the perfect month-of coordinator for our Disneyland wedding. She is kind, confident, warm, poised, and ready for anything that may come up! We loved working with her and her team-- they were amazing at liaising with our vendors, keeping things running smoothly day of, and being a much needed support on our joyous but potentially stressful wedding day. Hire her! She's the best!!

We love McKenna!

It was truly such a pleasure working with McKenna leading up to our wedding. She was always on top of everything and the day of coordination on her apart was exceptional. She was always happy, fun, professional, and excited to meet with us and I felt so taken care of on the day of the wedding. We couldn’t have chosen a better planner to work with. I’d recommend her to all of my friends if they weren’t already married!

Hello there, I'm McKenna!

I started Events by McKenna in 2021 after nearly ten years of working in the hospitality and event field.

After working with so many brides, as well as being a bride myself last year, I have put together my packages and planning systems to take as much stress out of the wedding planning process as possible. My goal is for all Events by McKenna brides to be relaxed and have the perfect wedding of their dreams.

In my free time I am studying for my sommelier certification, playing with my golden retriever, and spending time with my husband.
