“BE A GUEST AT YOUR OWN PARTY”
What We Do
Central Coast Party Helpers was founded by Brigitte Faulkner in 2000. We are almost 25 years in and we love what we do! We are one of the original companies in Santa Barbara, San Luis Obispo, and Monterey counties to create mobile staffing and clean up for events. We have a great amount of experience in planning and coordination of events, most commonly weddings, but we also plan corporate events, private dinner parties, bridal and baby showers, and a number of other types of events. The floor is yours, really! You tell us the dream event whatever it is, and we will make it happen. What makes us unique is that we plan & coordinate but we also have in house wait staff, full bartenders, and more. When you choose to hire CCPH for your wedding and event needs, you align yourself with a team of professionals that are invested in the overall success for you event. You will rarely find a company that has it all like we do! Using one company for all of the big elements of your big day is key for keeping your event organized and drama free so that you can “Be a guest at your own Party"
How does it work?
When you reach out to us, we set up time to talk with you and get to know all about your vision. We then prepare a package or Ál a cart quote for you. Once you sign on with us, we work with you to get all of your needs met in order to create a perfect day that you will remember always!
How we work with you to achieve your Dream Day
Different needs and timelines will determine the details of how we work! In general, we usually begin by putting together the 5 big things: Your timeline, floor map and layout, your rental order, your desired menu and a list of other vendors involved if any, if your event is months out, you may not know some of these things and that is okay! It will come together with time. If your event needs are small and close to the time of booking, we customize and simplify the process. As the big day approaches, we increase communication with you and dwindle down on details. On event day, we are 100% committed to you and the event we’ve created together so that you are covered and can enjoy!
