Happy Client Reviews
I am a MOB. My 28 are old daughter had definite ideas for her & her fiancé's wedding & reception. I wanted to support them. As we began planning, we quickly knew we wanted help. Penny was our person. She was not only knowledgeable on every level of wedding/reception planning, but she was easy to work with, calming, enthusiastic, and kind. She made the process a joy for us all with her humor and happy attitude. She was 100% in step with Kaitie but also respectful of my hubby & me.
One detail in particular stands out as an example. Kaitie wanted a particular enhancement to the reception venue but none of us could find anyone who could do it. Kaitie was sad that her vision was probably not going to be possible. Somehow, however, Penny eventually - by prayer or untold hours of searching or ??? - found someone to make it happen. On the wedding day, before guests were shown into the reception hall, Penny found me and gave me a peak at the hall. I began to cry. It was the vision my beloved daughter had all along. Penny totally got it, down to every detail! Penny is worth every cent and more we paid. I can't imagine hiring any other wedding coordinator. One last thing. Penny has great recommendations. She suggested the DJ that Kaitie hired (djDaron). He was fantastic. We still are getting compliments on him being the best DJ people have ever heard. That was because of Penny's recommendation.
This MOB gives my highest recommendation to you for Penny and Pennies Events.
Penny is truly one of the best humans I know . I am so glad we found her to coordinate our day of. She made everything simple & easy . We had allot of potential for family drama and I was nervous but she handled it all with grace and strength. She made sure that no matter what we were happy. As the bride when I had my check ins with penny it felt like I was talking to my mom , and from someone who has zero relationship with their actual mom .. this made the wedding experience even more special cuz penny made it feel like I didn’t miss out . She made my vision come to life and worked well with us . Was very realistic and honest . I am gonna miss my check ins with her but that day was perfect all because of penny and the hard dedicated work she did. Forever thankful
Thank you so much for being part of our wedding day and planning process! We loved getting to work with you to help bring our dream to life. You have been so kind and patient throughout the entire process and for that we cannot thank you enough! We appreciate your help in creating unforgettable moments that will last a lifetime!
All our love,
Steven and Gianna
Penny,
Thank you so much for all your hard work in making this day feel even more special for us. Coordinating any event is never easy and we greatly appreciate your skills and experience to make this all come together. Thank you for your patience in answering our questions and concerns. This day would not have been as relaxing and enjoyable without your help.
Much love and gratitude,
Christine and David.
Penny,
Wow, what an absolutely amazing journey that we have had together during this season! We truly couldn’t have done this whole thing without you. You are so incredible at your job and the hardest worker I know. I am so thankful for our friendship - you are family to us now. I ‘m going to miss all our meetings & talks but I look forward to staying in touch in the future.
We love you so much!
Love,
Sydney & Josh & your new Hawaiian Family
Dear Penny and Friends,
The organization and thoughtful details you coordinated with Sydney and Ryan for their wedding were instrumental in creating a joyful atmosphere of calm elegance.
The memory table was stunning; the calligraphy, the table photos and the flow and ease of moving through this event was paved by your creativity. You and your crew worked non-stop throughout the day and I am very grateful for all you have done.
With heartfelt thanks and appreciation

I cannot say enough great things about Pennies Events! My son's wedding was beautiful and her constant attention to detail made it stress free. The venue looked beautiful and exactly as the bride wanted it to be. She regularly updated us on how many people had arrived and how much time we had before it started, then also helped the bartenders when they got behind and made sure all staff had breaks. She kept the reception moving and at the end made sure the venue was good to go. I was able to enjoy the wedding and my guests knowing Penny was taking care of everything. love her.

I highly recommend using penny as your event planner! From our very first meeting she was so organized and really listened to exactly what I wanted. She paid attention to all the little details and had checklists to make sure we were on track. It ended up raining the day of our outdoor wedding but penny switched gears and made it happen! Everything was so beautifully executed I cannot thank her enough for playing a major role in our wonderland wedding!

Penny Yoro, of Pennies Events, is absolutely amazing. My mother-in-law and I have said multiple times that she is worth her weight in gold. From the moment we decided to book Penny, to after our wedding, Penny was there with us every step of the way. She is detail-oriented and very organized. We were given checklists and timelines to follow to make the wedding planning process smoother. She handled contact with all vendors, and walked through our venue with us to make sure she knew our vision of our wedding day. On the day of the wedding, she decorated, organized help, greeted/paid vendors, and made sure the day was perfect. I HIGHLY recommend Penny to anyone in need of a wedding planner or day of coordinator.

Pennies Events is the VERY BEST!! Penny served as the docent at our daughter's recent wedding. From planning with the venue liaison, to coordinating us through rehearsal, to overseeing all activities at the wedding and reception, she ensured everything went smoothly and as our daughter had dreamed it would be. Penny was responsive to emerging issues and everything went perfectly. She made sure the parents of the bride and groom were free to enjoy the wedding and magical evening. She helped any vendor who needed it and coordinated their collective efforts as if they were one team. I can't say enough about her professionalism, insights, and caring approach. All family and friends shared comments that evening and days later that it was the best wedding ever. Deservedly, most of those sentiments should be directed to Penny. She made all the complexity seem routine and absolutely enjoyable.
Gil Mendoza, Father of the Bride
Penny was an absolute lifesaver on our wedding day! We'd give 100+ star review if we could! When the venue coordinator dropped the ball, she stepped in without missing a beat and made everything run so smoothly. She didn’t just handle the logistics; she made the day feel effortless and joyful for both us and our families. Her time spent on creating a timeline to share with our wedding party, vendors, and loved ones was an amazing touch to help the day include all we wanted. Penny and her daughter Taylor, from Honest Calligraphy, are the ultimate duo. Taylor’s calligraphy was beyond beautiful—it added such a personal, heartfelt touch to our day that we will cherish forever. Penny made us feel like we were more than just clients; she truly made us feel as if we were family. If you’re looking for someone who will go above and beyond to make your wedding dreams come true, Penny is your person. We can’t recommend her enough!
Dear Penny,
We cannot thank you enough for all that you have done in creating the perfect day. We loved working with you to bring our vision to life. We appreciate all the time you put into meeting with us, helping with decor and putting us at ease. Not sure how we’d be functional without you! You are such a positive light to work with and we’re so thankful to have worked with you!
Brandon and Maureen
Penny,
Thank you so much for all the amazing help and guidance you have done from the months leading up to our special day and the actual day itself. You are one of the most hard working people we have ever seen and I don’t know what we would’ve done without!
Thank you,
Meashand and Antonio
Dear Penny ,
It has been an absolute pleasure to have you as the Day -of- Coordinator for our wedding. It feels odd to write “Day - of Coordinator” because you have gone above and beyond our expectations in every way imaginable. You have taken our ideas and desires and helped us make our dream wedding come to fruition. This day would not have come together in the perfect way it has without you. Thank you for all that you have done for us, and I honestly believe that the #1 reason I am /was not stressed for our day is because I have you taking care of us. I can not say thank you enough . YOu are phenomenal, and it has been an absolute pleasure . We will definitely be recommending Pennies Events in the future, and I hope to stay in touch.
Love, Emma and Bridger
I can’t begin to say how thankful I am and lucky to have you all as a part of my daughter’s wedding planning. You all have made Cassondra’s day just perfect in every way, down to the last detail.
Thank you, thank you, Thank you! Love Marielle
Mother of the Bride
The wedding was AMAZING thanks to penny. She did everything in her power to make sure our big day went smoothly. From her attention to detail to her easy going attitude it was incredibly easy to work with her. She was one of the first people to arrive the day of and one of the last people to leave, making sure everything was perfect. I highly recommend Pennies Events to anyone in need of help for their event.
Brandon Thimmes, Groom
When I started planning my wedding I didn’t know what to expect and was quickly becoming overwhelmed. Penny was so organized and helpful. She had checklists for every month leading up to my wedding which really helped to keep me on track and give me peace of mind. Working with Penny was nothing short of amazing, she is so personable and really takes the time to make sure that she understands your vision. She is full of ideas and was able to help make my dream wedding a reality. The day of my wedding was so chaotic and a little nerve wrecking. I had no idea what was going on at the venue as far as set up, but Penny took the time to show me pictures and make sure everything was perfect. She took care of everything from set up to tear down so my family and friends were able to enjoy the day. Penny had great recommendations for vendors and really made sure that they were all taken care of. My wedding went off without a hitch, everything was so beyond perfect and I have Penny and her helpers to thank for that. Everyone still talks about how beautiful everything was and how amazing my wedding coordinator was. I would HIGHLY recommend Pennies Events! ❤️❤️❤️
Cassondra London, Bride
Penny is awesome! Her care for you and attention to detail, is brilliant! I never ever coordinate an event without her, such as Anniversary, graduation, wedding and any celebration event. Highly recommend!
Tracy Lentz, Mother of the Groom
Oh my goodness Penny is 'AMAZING!' My son and daughter-in-law had the most amazing wedding and I give credit to Penny for making it the perfect day. I am in awe of this woman. She thinks of everything and has the most reassuring tone throughout the whole process. How does anyone pull off a perfect day without her? Her professionalism and knowledge of events prevent any catastrophe from happening. I would recommend having Penny for any event that you want to be pulled off flawlessly and with heart.
