About Rose to the Occasions

Meet Rose

founder/owner

Hi, I'm Rose!

I grew up in the heart of Solvang, surrounded by love, lace, and the magic of celebration. With grandparents who owned a wedding venue and an aunt who was a florist, weddings have always been part of my story.

The summer I turned 21, I flew the coop and moved to a little town in Alaska, where I found myself managing events at a charming lodge. That adventure launched my career in the wedding industry in 2011, and I've never looked back.

Today, I plan and coordinate weddings throughout San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, San Francisco, and beyond. My approach blends timeless elegance, thoughtful details, and a calm, confident presence. From our first conversation to your final dance, I'm your planner, your guide, and your biggest cheerleader.

When I'm not knee-deep in timelines and seating charts, you'll find me enjoying life with my husband, who restores vintage locomotives, and our two Frenchies, Gloria and Fiona.

Whether you're dreaming of an intimate vineyard ceremony or a full wedding weekend, I'm here to make the experience feel effortless, personal, and beautifully you.

Let's create something magical together.
