MEET THE GAL

christy

It’s nice to meet you, I’m Christy! With 10+ years in the wild world of weddings and events, I thrive on the details and revel in the creative process. But what truly makes it all worthwhile are the meaningful friendships formed with clients who entrust me with their special celebrations.

I live in Fallbrook with my husband, Ken — and my proudest accomplishments are my two adult babies, Madison and Kaylee. (that’s us!)

When I’m not developing design details for my couples, you can find me immersed in interior design, strolling the great outdoors, or playing with my goldendoodles.

We work with you from the initial consultation, until the last box is being packed into the vehicle. We will brainstorm, design, style, plan, organize and coordinate your event from start to finish, helping you source and book suppliers, as well as coordinating them on-the-day to bring together your dream look. This is the perfect package for the couple who want our professional and creative hands covering all of their day.

MONTH-OF
management

The month-of management service is for the couple who has done all the wedding planning, but wants to be able to relax and enjoy every moment of their big day. Our assistance begins three months prior to the wedding date, and includes the creation of day-of itinerary, as well as a site walkthrough to review the layout and all associated details. Our team will also provide supervision during setup and breakdown on the wedding day and make sure that your event is seamless while making sure all other tasks are executed.

Dreaming of professional design expertise to elevate your wedding styling? Want your day to reflect your story, be unique and look beautifully harmonious from start to finish? In our design and styling package, we’ll be inspired by your story to create a full styling and design plan tailored to your requirements from start to finish for the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception.

  • “Christy was undoubtedly a pillar to the success of having the wedding of my dreams! Incredibly professional and kind, Christy was able to take our meetings and bring to life and help execute the vision I had hoped for. The excellence, eye for design and organization her and her team brought to the venue the day of, gave me such an ease of mind knowing that so many details, both big and small, were in the best hands possible. I truly could not have had a smoother, more beautiful wedding and so much of that is a testament to the amazing person that Christy is, and the business she has built. She went above and beyond, in every way.”

    • Faith + Lorenzo, Bride & Groom

  • "From our initial meeting to the night of our wedding, Christy Events was the best wedding planner my husband and I could have asked for! Christy is so talented, and you can tell she loves and cares deeply about the success of her weddings. She is super organized, easy to communicate with, and very detail-oriented. Our wedding involved over half a dozen different vendors and having Christy there to take over the reins of communication and coordination was a HUGE stress relief as the wedding month approached. She also made sure our family and wedding party knew the schedule along with their specific roles and responsibilities during the wedding weekend. My husband and I felt relaxed going into the wedding weekend thanks to the expertise and experience of Christy Events. Christy was an integral piece to our Best Day Ever!"

    • Taylor + Riley, Bride & Groom

  • "My husband and I got married in August and hired Christy for our design. Getting married during COVID was the craziest whiplash I've ever experienced, as I'm sure many brides can relate, and Christy was already 10 steps ahead of me at all times. I always knew that she had things covered before I even had time to worry about them. Her inventory is extensive with absolutely beautiful pieces and her eye for design is something I was able to easily, blindly trust. Her cleanup is incredibly timely and I'm so grateful that I had her help. We couldn't have done it without you, Christy! Thank you!"

    • Jessica + Cesar, Bride & Groom

  • "As a mother of the bride, I can assure you that Christy is the best decision you could make for your wedding! She goes above and beyond being a wedding planner. She truly cares about every detail and holds your hand through the entire process. We can highly recommend her!"

    • Staci, Mother of the Bride

  • "Christy Berkhouse, the extraordinaire. To start, Christy has got the perfect balance of excellence and fun. Every time Christy has run our countless events, she makes everything happen with such ease and grace. During events, problems always arise no matter how much anyone prepares, but to see her responses and "get it done, extra mile" character is what makes every event more than flawless. She thinks and problem solves unlike anyone else I know. Christy does not let stress or problems take precedence when they happen, she simply fixes it. I trust any event in the hands of Christy. She will add her creative touch and excellent work ethic to make it the event of your dreams. You will never feel like you need to "step in or take over it" because she will already have it all solved. Choosing Christy to run/design your event means not one single stress and lots of fun!"

    • Colbi, Colleague

  • “Christy-is CRAZY AMAZING! I would have given her a millions starts on yelp if I could. Hands down, she is the perfect candidate if you're looking for a wedding planner. I was *completely stress-free* on the wedding day!! I really enjoyed the day because I knew I was in good hands ;) we had time to eat right after after ceremony and we were actually able to eat and felt full. During reception, we was able to greet every single guests and have indicated small talks. Strategy: Christy had really good checklists which was shared through google docs. Both my hubby and I really appreciated it because we worked on the checklists wherever and whenever we like and had constant communication with Christy. I'm so grateful that each checklist deadlines achievable and practical.” (cont)

    • Christina + Kevin, Bride & Groom

  • “Christy is the kind of genuine person who we don't see much anymore. She's sweet, loving, supportive, kind, and patient. I was really touched one time when she asked me if I was overwhelmed? (1.5 weeks before the big day) I told her I was, and she immediately asked how she could help me relieve the stress..and I cried. She not only resolved the problems that I was dealing with but also had much better outcome! Highlights of working with Christy: Christy reviewed contracts and made contacts with all the vendors to make sure everyone is on the same page! This really saved me a lot of hassle to talk to everyone! I loved it! Also, she made sure that our timeline is going to be smooth and practical. She drove from San Diego to visit our venue located in OC and attended final detail meeting with the venue. I especially thank her for talking to the venue people when I told her that I really just couldn't deal with them anymore. She was punctual, experienced, and knowledgeable. The wedding really exceeded my expectations! I gave all thanks to Christy. Christy and her assistant are truly talented and a gift from God! If you're still debating, stop! Just go with her and this will be the best decision you make for the wedding.”

    • Christina + Kevin, Bride & Groom

  • "Love love love Christy's design work for weddings! She did our wedding & it was so gorgeous, exactly what I had in mind.

  • Ah, the venue coordinator, the unsung hero of the venue world. They're like the landlord of the wedding world, making sure the lights are on, the toilets flush, and the doors don't stick. They're there to keep the venue shipshape and handle any venue-related emergencies that may arise.

    Now, your wedding planner? Well, they're more like the conductor of the wedding symphony. They're the maestro orchestrating the entire show, from the first note of the processional to the final chord of the last dance. They're the ones making sure all the pieces of the wedding puzzle fit together seamlessly, from finding the perfect vendors to ensuring every detail is executed flawlessly.

    Think of it this way: the venue coordinator is like the venue's backstage crew, making sure the stage is set and the props are in place. Your wedding planner? They're the director of the entire production, making sure the show goes off without a hitch and stealing the spotlight with their creative genius and impeccable planning skills. So, while the venue coordinator is essential for keeping the venue running smoothly, your wedding planner is the true MVP when it comes to crafting the wedding of your dreams.

  • We believe in quality over quantity, focusing our attention on a select number of weddings each year to ensure that every couple receives the personalized attention and dedication they deserve. While the number of weddings we plan per year may vary depending on the scope and complexity of each event, our priority is always on delivering exceptional service and creating unforgettable experiences for our clients.
