About

Kanani Young, who goes by Nani, started her event management and coordinating experience as a Special Events Coordinator at One of the largest Wedding/Conference Centers in San Diego. After years of experience with Weddings and Special events from a venue standpoint, the need for a coordinator was one problem for clients she wanted to help resolve. Once discovering the love for weddings, people, and event coordinating, Nani Events was born in May of 2009.
"I remember in my earlier years: attending a wedding and watching the Bride and Groom set up with little time to relax before walking down the aisle. The family members and close friends would assist the bride in cleaning afterward for hours! It was then I decided I would never sit and watch this happen again."
Before putting the cost in front of the need of a coordinator, choosing a friend with little to no experience to save money, or deciding to coordinate your wedding alone: Ask yourself these things:

  • While I'm getting hair and make-up done, who will set-up/check the ceremony site?
  • When it's time to walk down the aisle, who will place the runner?
  • Do the flower girls have flower petals in their baskets?
  • Did the vendors arrive? On-time?

This is just the beginning. Let me help make your special day stress free!

Having a Coordinator will allow you to be a guest at your wedding. On the most important day of your life, the most important people in your life should embrace every moment stress-free. Nani Events offers a variety of services, which include Wedding Management (Partial Planning) or Full Coordinating. Let's schedule a time to assess your needs!

Wedding reception

Kanani Young brought my dream reception idea to life. She helped me find food vendors, bartender, linens, all plates/utensils, DJ, and the perfect venue (Hidden Gem). She decorated and was the perfect hostess. My husband and I were very pleased and impressed with her professionalism and knowledge. I definitely plan to use her for my events in the future.

This little powerhouse can DO ANYTHING! She is a blessing beyond measure!

Words can not describe the impact Nani has had on the life of my marriage, much less the impact she has made on me as a person. We developed a bond over the several months leading to our wedding. Her wisdom and optimism provided a steady hand during a time that was more stress-filled than I had imagined. Her experience, creativity and understanding made her the perfect team captain and cheerleader. I will only utilize her expertise in all future endeavors. She is rare gem of a human!
