The best vendor decision we made for our wedding!
Chabeli and her team are absolutely amazing and we could not recommend them enough for all your wedding planning needs!
As soon as my fiancé and I got engaged we established we wanted to prioritize paying for a full planning package with a wedding planner given our busy schedules. It was the absolute best decision we made going into a year of wedding planning. From our first meeting with Chabeli, she was super in tune with our desire to properly scale our wedding for a smaller event, somewhere around 50 guests, and to stay as close to our budget as possible. Her diverse vendor list helped us stick to one of our other priorities, to hire as many minority-owned small businesses as possible. When a dire family medical emergency came up just six months before our wedding date, when we expected to go in deep on wedding planning, Chabeli was super encouraging that she wouldn’t bother us until we absolutely needed to make decisions, which allowed us to continue tending to our family needs full time. Come the final weeks before our wedding, Chabeli and her team kept on top of things we definitely didn’t even realize we needed to take care of.
Our wedding day ended up being an absolute dream. So many people told us they wanted to duplicate so many big and small details for their own nuptials! -

We just returned home from our destination wedding that we put on for our daughter at the Alisal Guest Ranch. Chabeli and her team were exceptional. I literally can’t think of anything that they didn’t handle perfectly and with ease. They made the event super enjoyable for our family as we didn’t have to worry about a thing. They held our hand all the way through the planning process through the actual events. I could not recommend them any higher. This was a 3 day event with multiple parties and photo sessions of which each one went smoothly and seamless. Also their recommendations of different vendors was helpful of which they were also very professional and top tier. Thank you again Chabeli and team you are a rare gem in your business. -

Could not have done it without P.S.!
Chabeli and the whole P.S. Team were everything I could have hoped for in a wedding planner - if you do literally one thing for your wedding day, hire P.S.! From the initial planning meetings, all the way through to the wedding day, Chabeli and her team held every responsibility, emotion, and detail for us. There were details I could have never imagined that were taken care of and most importantly, we got to truly enjoy our wedding without worrying about anything else. -

Amazing all around!
Can’t say enough good things about the ladies at ps plans. They made my wedding as non wedding as possible and made all my wants come true despite them being out of the norm. I would recommend them 100 times over! -

PS Plans should 1000% be the first wedding vendor you hire!! Literally book them right now! Hands down, the best money we spent! We truly can't say enough good things about Chabeli, Sheena + Jeanine. Their helpful + engaging personalities, their organization + attention to detail, their help keeping things running on time, managing family dynamics + photos, is true perfection.
My (FINALLY) husband + I were supposed to get married on March 28th, 2020, but COVID had other plans. In the very beginning of the pandemic, when no one knew what was going on + when the world shutdown, Chabeli managed to get our entire wedding postponed in a matter of days. Then, when we had to postpone a 2nd time, it was again taken care of in less than a week.
Every single experience with Chabeli has been incredible. She is so helpful, incredibly responsive, + is great at helping you figure out your wedding day priorities + making your vision come to life.
As a wedding photographer, I've worked with many coordinators, but the moment I met Chabeli while working a wedding together several years ago, I knew she would be the one I would hire for my own wedding someday. From both a vendor + bride perspective she is absolutely amazing to work with. I truly couldn't have asked for or dreamed of a better experience.
We are beyond grateful for you ladies!! -

Kate W. Sent on 04/20/2022The Best Wedding Planner EVER.
10/10 the best wedding planner in the game. Chabeli and team are ROCKSTARS that know the industry, will steer you in the right direction at every turn, and will do so with a smile while handing you champagne. They think of every possible detail, help deal with the trials and tribulations of family fun during wedding planning, and make sure that your day is actually the day that YOU want. Just a few things Chabeli helped navigate for our wedding: -- COVID rescheduling -- MASSIVE wildfire on the property two days before the wedding -- Vaccination requirements -- Bus driver who got pulled over en route to the wedding Honestly, outside of picking my hubby, Chabeli was the best wedding decision I made. HIRE HER. YOUR WEDDING WILL BE INCREDIBLE. -

The best team to have by your side on wedding day
I strongly recommend P.S. & Associates! We did a lot of "DIY" stuff for our wedding but knew that we wanted some pros to help us on the day-of. We got all that and more from the P.S. team.
Chabeli worked with us in advance providing no-nonsense advice and great recommendations. She quickly understood our vision and kept us on track to achieve it.
We were blown away by the P.S. team on our wedding day - they were the difference between us stressing out about everything, and us having a fantastic worry-free night (we did the latter). They nailed the setup, getting everything placed how we had envisioned and even using some of our decor items in ways we wouldn't have come up with. Throughout the event they kept everything running smoothly and on-time, without us ever feeling rushed. Where they truly went above and beyond was striking the event, making sure that all everything got packed up and even thoughtfully decorating our suite.
We can't say enough about P.S. & Associates! Hire them - they are the best! -

Best Money spent on my wedding!
Wow there is so much to say about how amazing Chabeli and her team are but here are a few reasons on why her services are beyond amazing!
When it came to planning our wedding, we knew right away we were in need of a wedding planner as we are two very busy individuals. I inquired with various planners on their services and so many had outrageous fees such as mileage fees for every in person meeting and only allowed a certain amount of communication with them regardless of package! I was a little discouraged until I found PS Plans. From the moment I reached out to Chabeli she was professional and got back to me right away.
After meeting her for the first time my Fiancé and I knew she was the perfect person to help us out. We decided the Carefree package was exactly what we needed. The planning process can be overwhelming and Chabeli made it as easy as can be. She worked at our pace and created a timeline and vision board to ensure she captured everything I wanted. The most important part is she helped manage the budget and helped us as much as possible to stay within the amount we planned. Did we go over? Yes… but she made sure that all of overages were something we really wanted and made sure nothing was excessive. She helped us find a venue based on our budget and recommend vendors also within budget. If we didn’t like the options she gave us she’d find more until we found something we liked. She’d accompany me to every vendor meeting to ensure my needs were always met and heard.
Not only was she phenomenal throughout the planning process but wow the day of was beyond perfect. When you have a big wedding and a wild bridal party with a lot of personalities and a lot of moving parts it can be hectic and things are bound to happen. Chabeli and her team ensured that both my husband and I were taken care of in every single way. We didn’t have to worry about a single thing besides ensuring we were having a great time. The obstacles we had on the day of I didn’t even notice! Chabeli and her team were phenomenal. My friends and family still comment on how she was so organized and made sure everything was great.
Looking back at our wedding day the best thing we spent our money on without a doubt was on Chabeli and her team! So if you are thinking “oh I’m trying to not spend that much on my wedding and don’t want to have an extra cost of a planner” think again. You are already spending money so why not enjoy every single one of your dollars spent by hiring PS Plans and enjoying the day of your wedding.

Belinda P. Sent on 03/21/2020Incredible Planning Team!
I am a SoCal photographer who was hired to work with PS Planning & Associates at a wedding last October. I am so impressed with the way this team handled EVERYTHING for our client from the engagement session, bachelorette, and most of all the wedding day (both the way it was run and the beautiful fulfillment of the bride's vision!). Chabeli and her team went above and beyond to make sure the day ran smoothly for the couple. When unexpected delays came up they adjusted effortlessly, and they made our job as photographers so incredibly easy that even we felt kind of spoiled! Since then, I've been recommending PS & Associates Event Planning at every chance I get and consider them a MUST HAVE for your wedding day! -

Hiring Chabeli and her incredible team was the best decision we made in the wedding planning process! Fun and professional, she made everything SO much easier and we could actually relax and enjoy our day. She gave us vendor recommendations that were perfect - and ended up saving us money! It's months later and I still can't believe the most perfect day we had that was beyond what we had dreamed- and so much of the credit goes to them. -

Samantha J. Sent on 11/20/2019Best coordination team!
WOW! I can’t imagine a better wedding coordinating team than p.s planning and associates! From every step of the process they were there to help or to answer any questions or to offer suggestions! I hired Chabeli and her team for month of coordination in January for our October 12th wedding. We were looking for someone to help with the process and to make our wedding day easy. They truly did that and were in contact with us throughout all the months. They are professional, easy to communicate with, and quick with responses.
Chabeli and her team have gone above and beyond for us. Five months before our wedding we found out our venue has shut down; Chabeli stepped in immediately and not only calmed us down but we found a new venue (that we absolutely loved) within 48 hours!
The day of the wedding went so smoothly because of them. Juliana, Sadie and Brianna were so amazing, kind and professional. My friends and family were so impressed with everyone’s expertise and attention to detail! My family could not stop raving at their hard work because they did not have to lift a finger and they were able to enjoy the whole wedding night!
Chabeli and her team are wonderful to work with and exactly what we needed in a wedding coordinator!
Thank you all so much!! -

Mallory F. Sent on 10/29/2019We Love P.S.!
My husband and I married in August of this year. We both work 9-5 jobs, and typically have a lot going on over the weekends. We knew if we were to attempt wedding planning on our own, it would turn into a disaster. Chabeli came highly recommended from a co-worker, and it didn’t take us long to realize why. From our initial meeting, Chabeli hit the ground running. She nailed our vision and because of her, Sheena, and the whole PS team, we truly experienced our dream wedding. I would recommend (and have been recommending) PS Plans to everyone considering a wedding planner. Something that sets PS apart from the rest is that you don’t just get one wedding planner—you get a team. From start to finish they were attentive to our needs, and super responsive via email, text message, and phone call. Chabeli and her team are absolutely incredible and thanks to them, we were able to enjoy the most beautiful and fun wedding there ever was!P.S. & Associates Event Planning's reply:
Mallory + Brad, thank you so much for the lovely review!! We had so much planning with you two and had a BLAST in Mammoth! The wedding was incredible, thank you for letting us be a part of such a memorable occasion!!! -

Absolutely THE BEST!
From the moment we met Chabeli it felt like we had known her all of our lives. That’s how comforting she was from the beginning. She understood our vision added her experience and professionalism and made our dream wedding into a reality wedding. We understood that Chabeli and her team were extremely busy with other wedding projects, but they always made us feel like we were a priority.
Chabeli and her team were an absolute pleasure to work with. They knew all the ins and outs of the wedding production and contacts to all the right vendors. And best of all is that they get things done.
Working with Chabeli was a low stress wedding planning. Just wow!
We couldn’t of imagined our wedding without Chabeli and her team at P.S. & Associates Event Planning.
You will forever be in our fondest memories, in our journey, as husband and wife.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. -

Samantha C. Sent on 08/02/2019Nothing but a positive experience, P.S. & Associates are the best in the business!
My wedding was just over a month ago and I still have friends and family calling to tell me how much fun they had at our wedding and how it was the best wedding they have ever been to. The success of the wedding is truly due to the work and preparation of Chabeli and her team.
I started having fun with Chabeli from the moment we met. Planning a wedding can be stressful, but not if you hire Chabeli. She listens to you and embraces your vision right away. Once we picked a style for the wedding I had the opportunity to be introduced to some amazing companies throughout the LA area that would help us bring to life our ideas. Chabeli has nurtured her relationships with vendors and as a result they will take care of you like you are family.
After a year of planning, the wedding day finally arrived and this is when Chabeli and her team knocked it out of the park! I had nothing to worry about because they were in control of every detail. The best decision I made (after saying yes to my now husband) was hiring Chabeli. -

Brianna M. Sent on 05/24/2019Didn’t have to worry about ANYTHING On my wedding day!!
Wow wow wow!! My husband and I just got married 2 weeks ago and I still can’t get over how perfect our wedding was. From the initial meeting with Chabeli she blew us away. She is extremely down to earth and was always honest and up front with her thoughts. There were many times I was unsure of which way to go or how to speak with vendors and Chabeli stepped in immediately and figured it out. We had one design meeting and from then on she just got my vibe and what my vision was for the wedding.
Both my husband and I were overwhelmed at our daily jobs and Chabeli always made sure we were on track. The day of the wedding I was worried with timing and so much family coming in from out of town. Chabeli showed up with a full team and had everything covered. I have a brother with autism and Chabeli’s team made sure to pay special attention to him and help where needed.
I didn’t have to think of ANYTHING the day of my wedding. I was able to let loose and just have Chabeli tell us what to do next and it went flawless (or so I thought).
Later on I found out all these random mishaps happened but I had no idea because her team just took care of it and didn’t bother me or stress me out on my wedding day! I would recommend Chabeli and her team for ANY event! -

Katherine R. Sent on 02/19/2019300+ Guest List? Last minute rain? No problem for PS Plans!
I do not know where to even start with my love and appreciation for Chabeli and her team! Chabeli, Sheena, Meredith, Jeannine, and Sadie were the most incredibly supportive, organized, creative, and professional team throughout the planning and executing process of our wedding. With that being said, if you are a bride that is looking for a coordinating team that will take care of all of your planning needs... look no further!
During the initial consultation meeting, Chabeli was direct and totally open to all of my ideas, fears, and dreams off how I wanted my wedding day to be. From the timeline to the budget, everything was organized and concise. She adhered to the budget set throughout the entire process and even helped save us money overall!
The month prior to the wedding is when I really fell in love with this team. They coordinated the timing with all of the vendors and helped remind me to make the final payments with all of them when it came up to the last 2 weeks prior to wedding day (which is something no one talks about and is kind of overwhelming to remember due dates, amount, etc.)
A week prior to our wedding day, we found out rain was in the forecast for our completely outdoor desert wedding! Chabeli and her team busted their butts with less than 4 days to the wedding day and got organized the tenting of the venue and worked with all vendors to make sure the event would flawlessly transition to a tented venue. I truly was amazed at how beautiful it was and the best part was that me, my husband, and parents didn't have to stress out about these changes because PS Plans took care of all of it!
I would also like to add that I live in San Diego and got married in Palm Springs and this was in NO WAY an issue for me in using a planner based in LA. Chabeli was just as involved as if my wedding was in LA and her communication with me throughout every step of the process was consistent and positive.
I could continue to gush about this team, but basically, you would be silly to not even meet with them for a Bridal Consultation. You'll feel at ease the moment you meet with them and they will make your Wedding Day a dream come true!
