Reviews of White Haven Weddings & Events (Event Planner)

Can't imagine my day without White Haven Weddings - Above and Beyond Amazing! Amazing customer service, so professional and truly attentive to every detail. Would definitely recommend Cassandra at White Haven Weddings for your special day! She was able to balance my HUGE chaotic wedding party, kept everyone organized, and made sure we had a 100% stress free, fun, magical day. She went above and beyond for every single detail and step, from table-scape design, selecting bridesmaid dresses, to making sure I looked perfect moments before I walked down the aisle, Cassandra was there for me. I had two venues, and I was worries it would be difficult coordinating decor, setup, and people between the ceremony and reception but Cassandra at White Haven Weddings made sure the transition was flawless. Best day of our lives thanks to Cass!!!

Cassandra was SO awesome during the whole process of helping us plan the wedding. We hired her for day of services & she was our florist also! She was amazing with co-ordinating timelines, helping us to communicate with our vendors etc. which would’ve been a nightmare to do alone honestly! We don’t live in Kelowna & we’re so thankful we had her to help us with everything since we were planning from a distance! The florals turned out beautiful, our arch was TO DIE for it was so gorgeous. Loved having Cassandra & would highly recommend her services!

Cassandra is a 'jack of all trades' in the Okanagan Wedding Industry. She is constantly adding to her skillset and looking for new ways to offer her clients more. She is very genuine and down to earth, and VERY knowledgeable in florals and design. After only knowing Cassandra for a few short weeks, it's clear her work intentions are a top priority and her dedication to her clients is inspiring. As a fellow planner in the Wedding Industry I'm happy to have made a strong connection with Cassandra and hope we can continue to collaborate together in the future!

The owner, Cassandra McColman, and her team are your dream team!! A group that you can count on, with a strong vision, and just the right blend of creativity, functionality, and practicality in their work. I have worked with White Haven as a vendor and have been immensely impressed by their attention to details and caring for the couple on their big day. Cassandra has a knack in bringing a luxury experience to life while being extremely mindful of the potential environmental impacts of her work.

We hired Cassandra for our day-of event organization and she was wonderful. Her service was attentive and supportive. We had our wedding in Penticton and I’d thoroughly recommend her for any Okanagan Events or as a local Kelowna Wedding Planner. She completely took the stress away so we could enjoy our day and was responsive, professional, detail-oriented, flexible and easy going. She has a really lovely demeanour and we felt an authentic connection with her.

I cannot say enough good things about Cassandra. She is the face of the brand and it was such a wonderful experience to get to plan my wedding with her. We had Cassandra as our day-of-coordinator and she went the extra steps to make our wedding perfect. With postponing our wedding to the many restrictions, she came out on top to make sure our day ran smoothly the months leading up and to the final touches. Her organization made my bride brain calm during the days before the wedding. She was able to bring my ideas to life, while also adding a spice of her visions, which made the day memorable. Cassandra is professional and loving in all sense of the words. I would highly recommend Cassandra for any wedding or event you are planning on having, it made our whole day easy and relaxing knowing she was there to coordinate. Thank you, White Haven!

I debated getting an event coordinator for quite a while as we only had a 40 person wedding, however - hiring White Haven Weddings was a choice I did not regret! Cassandra was so organized, helpful, caring and was a HUGE part of the success of our wedding day! Cassandra is thoughtful in her approach and an absolute dream to work with! If you are on the fence, don’t hesitate - hiring Cassandra will be worth every penny and more!!

We can't tell you how fantastic it was working with Cassandra on the lead up to our wedding. She was so helpful and responsive! She was full of good ideas and suggestions and really helped us bring the vision of our big day together. On our wedding day, she was indispensable! She made sure everything went as planned and handled all the last minute details. Having her in our corner really put our minds at ease and let us focus on the each other and our guests!

Cassandra did the most beautiful job on my wedding flowers this summer. I didn't have any vision for flower types, I simply gave her my colour palette and she absolutely knocked it out of the park. They were so stunning and I couldn't have asked for a better florist. Would highly recommend!

Aimee Thievin

White Haven Weddings was extremely organized and helpful in planning our absolute dream day! They created the most beautiful spreadsheet which was coordinated with all of our vendors to ensure everyone knew what they were doing on the day of (and leading up to). They were always quick to respond to questions and emails and were willing to hop on a phone call or facetime anytime we needed! Lastly, they created the MOST gorgeous bouquets and floral arrangements for our day! They were seriously a highlight! We are so grateful to have been able to work with them!

Before we hired Whitehaven wedding I was a skeptic. Maybe it's a guy thing but I didn't see the value of a wedding planner. Wow, I couldn't have been more wrong. She was amazing. Simply put, Whitehaven weddings made our day a complete success. I totally changed my tune and was on board as soon as I met her. Cassandra is professional, organized, and exceptional at what she does. I had literally no stress throughout the whole day because she meticulously orchestrated everything flawlessly behind the scenes. Cassandra ensured all 10,000 of my wife's requests were met. Thank you for a day we will never forget. 6/5 stars.
