Creating the Moment You’ll Always Remember

When you glance back at your wedding day, you’ll recall more than the color palette or table linens, you’ll feel the warmth in the room, the ease of friends gathered, the sense of belonging. That’s what CES Weddings & Events brings to life. Based in Chico, California, this team has mastered the balance of artful design and authentic celebration.

Whether you’re planning a luxe vineyard wedding or an intimate coastal affair, they lean into what makes you unique and design every detail accordingly.

• Destination Weddings: Available for weddings beyond California, including resorts and international locales. For couples who want the California-based planning expertise with global reach.

What Makes Them Unique

CES is all about relationship, design, and ease. They begin with an in-depth consultation and then build a team of vendors, timelines, and systems around your vision so you can actually be present on your wedding day.

Their process uses cloud-based planning tools for seamless collaboration, which means whether you’re local or planning from afar, everything flows. What separates them is their blend of creative design, strong logistical expertise, and a calming presence. All wrapped into an experience that doesn’t feel cookie-cutter.

Their couples typically spend around $80-$150 per guest.
