I can’t say enough great things about Haylie and Monica from Trilogy Events! They took my 30th ski-themed birthday celebration to new heights—everything was seamless from start to finish. Their attention to detail, creativity, and professionalism truly blew me away. They brainstormed unique ideas to incorporate the ski theme, handled all the logistics with ease, and went above and beyond to ensure every guest had a wonderful time. Communication was always clear and timely, and they made sure I felt supported and stress-free throughout the entire planning process. It was evident how passionate they are about what they do, and their enthusiasm was contagious. I can't tell you how incredible it was to just *show up to my event, they're worth it!!
I wholeheartedly recommend Trilogy Events to anyone looking to plan an unforgettable celebration—you’ll be in the best hands with Haylie and Monica!

I cannot recommend Trilogy Events highly enough! I originally wanted to hire Trilogy to do our baby shower start to finish, but was outvoted by my cohost (boo, hiss...never again!). I ended up hiring Trilogy for set-up, execution, and break down...and oh my gosh did they far exceed my expectations!
When initially reaching out to Trilogy Events, response time and communication back and forth with them as a (woman owned, heck yeah!) business from beginning to end was flawless. They answered every ridiculous question I had, they clarified information by brain chose to toss out the window, they were accountable, they were professional, and they were thorough. I had the absolute pleasure of communicating with Hailey, Monica, and of course the magician that is Emily, throughout the course of my event.
I was so worried that I should have hired two professionals, but super yacht Trilogy Events threw us a life-preserver in Emily just as we were going dooowwwnnn. And Emily is better than two professionals! Emily helped execute my daughter-in-law's baby shower and she was absolutely incredible from start to finish.
She arrived on time, professionally dressed, with a ready-to-go attitude. I quite audibly let out a sigh of relief when she walked through the door. Emily jumped in the moment she arrived...blowing up balloons, putting together decorations, placing food, and helping me set up the dessert/sweets table. AND, she made a plain white boring cake into a beautiful masterpiece (see photos!). She took the initiative wherever it was needed without ever being in the way; whatever we needed she had it covered and beyond!
Emily has this amazing sixth sense; any time we realized something had been forgotten, we’d turn around and there she was, ready to fix the issue! I need her to follow me around in real life just so I can keep it together. I'd totally hire her, she is that good! Until I win the lottery, Trilogy can hang on to her...but I'm still buying tickets!
Emily made every guest at the baby shower feel welcome and ensured everyone interacted with the games and activities, made sure guests had full drinks and were fed, coordinated games, and basically kept me sane all day so I didn't jump in my car and drive away. Emily effortlessly, and made sure the day ran smoothly without ever needing to be asked. It honestly felt like she was everywhere and nowhere at once—working tirelessly in the background while letting us shine in the spotlight.
At one point, I asked her to please let me know, discreetly, when it was 3:30pm. I'd absolutely forgotten, but at 3:30pm on the nose, Emily quietly walked by me and whispered, "time check." It seems silly, but these are the things that set businesses and professionals like Emily & Trilogy Events apart from the rest. Just absolutely exceptional service across the board.
I wanted my daughter-in-law to feel relaxed, happy, and loved while she was surrounded by those closest to her to celebrate this precious baby coming into our lives. Thanks to Emily and Trilogy Events, that’s exactly what happened. If we hadn’t had Emily on our team, it would have been a completely different (and much more chaotic) day. She’s a true professional, and I’m so grateful we found her. Thank you, thank you, thank you Emily and Trilogy Events!

I've had a fantastic experience working with Monica and Haylie on two occasions, and I’m finally getting around to writing a review.
This past summer, they happened to be available on a Saturday—despite relatively short notice—and helped me put together a surprise gender reveal and pregnancy announcement for our closest friends and family in the Bay Area. Everything was perfectly executed, on time, and the event was a blast. They quickly mobilized to meet my high level of attention to detail, were incredibly responsive, and stayed on top of everything.
After that, we contracted with them for my niece’s 10th birthday party in the Central Valley. Even though the event was further away, they flawlessly executed the Taylor Swift-themed party (which I knew absolutely nothing about!) just as the birthday girl had envisioned.
Again, we literally just showed up to the party and didn’t have to lift a finger—before, during, or after. The event had been planned months in advance for a backyard setting at a private residence, but due to unexpected rainfall, we had to switch to a venue at the last minute (literally on Tuesday for a Saturday party). Monica and Haylie handled it seamlessly, laying out all options, providing honest recommendations, and coordinating with all vendors to adjust their plans accordingly—including reconfiguring the decorations to fit the new space. They never once made me feel stressed; they simply got to work. Even with last-minute requests, nothing ever felt impossible—they just made it happen.
I’ve worked with other planners in the past who transferred their stress onto clients, but Monica and Haylie operate with calm confidence, execute everything to perfection, and are extremely professional and reliable.
I cannot recommend Trilogy enough and look forward to working with them on future events!

Monica is an excellent coordinator. She was incredibly detail oriented and made sure that everything went smoothly on the day of the wedding. She worked with all our vendors to make sure the vision was delivered the day of. We couldn’t have had asked for a better coordinator for our wedding! I highly recommend Trilogy Event Planning.
