Meet Mariah

Hey, I’m Mariah! 

 

I’m the owner and founder of Bay & Barn Event Planning.

I always knew I wanted to be an entrepreneur, and I knew whatever business I built had to make people feel something. I wanted to create something meaningful, something that genuinely made a difference in people’s lives. The problem was, for years, I just couldn’t figure out what that was supposed to look like.

 

After helping several friends with their weddings, assisting with planning, designing, vendor communication, timelines, emotional support, and day of coordination, I realized how much I genuinely loved it. I was the type-A friend answering vendor questions while getting my own hair done, printing last minute signage, fixing problems before anyone else noticed them, and making sure everything stayed on schedule. It came naturally and it made me realize there was a reason people trusted me during some of the biggest and most emotional moments of their lives. I thrived in the pressure, the logistics, the creativity, the problem solving, and the emotions behind it all. I loved being the person who could bring calm to chaos while helping create meaningful experiences people would remember forever.

 ​ 

Today, Bay & Barn is more than just a business to me. It’s something I’ve poured my heart into creating. My goal is to help couples feel supported, understood, organized, and genuinely able to enjoy one of the biggest moments of their lives without carrying the weight of it all on their shoulders. I care deeply about the experience my clients have, not just the wedding day itself. I want people to feel calm, cared for, and confident knowing someone is fully in their corner every step of the way.

​

At Bay & Barn Event Planning, we believe the people behind the timeline matter just as much as the timeline itself. Our team is made up of organized, calm, hardworking individuals who genuinely care about creating an experience that feels seamless, supportive, and memorable for every couple we work with.

 

We’re the people fluffing dresses before the aisle walk, fixing last minute problems before anyone notices, keeping vendors aligned, carrying décor, calming nerves, adjusting timelines in real time, and making sure you actually get to enjoy your wedding day instead of managing it. What makes our team different is that we don’t believe in a “that’s not my job” mindset. We step in where needed, adapt quickly, communicate clearly, and work together to keep the entire day flowing smoothly from start to finish. Whether you’re working with a lead coordinator, assistant coordinator, or support team member, every person at Bay & Barn is chosen intentionally for their professionalism, reliability, attention to detail, and ability to show up with both confidence and compassion. We’re here to be the calm in the chaos, while bringing your vision to life with care, structure, and heart.
