If you’re planning a wedding on California’s increasingly popular destination location, the Central Coast, you’ll want to know about the new and innovative Broad Street Event Group. With the advent of Broad Street, comes a new era in wedding planning, a “boutique” concept whereby seasoned professional wedding vendors come together at one location to bring information about their services directly to you. At these monthly Open House events, you can socialize over wine and hors d’oeuvres and discuss your wedding plans with a select group of vendors . 

Those vendors include Broad Street’s core group, including the founder of this co-operative wedding planning experience, Beau Kramer, owner of  Kramer Entertainment in Paso Robles.  Offering professional mobile disc jockeys, MCs, and music, Kramer Entertainment will even assist with lighting and the coordination of your event.  It was through this business that  Beau realized the need for a collaborative vendor service, so he purchased the beautiful Broad Street space, then invited three other hand-picked professionals to join in his vision.

One of those is Corinne Smith, owner of Panacea Event Floral Design, a company dedicated to designing the most exquisite flower and décor elements needed to make any wedding  grand or intimate, a personal statement.  Corinne integrates your personal style into every aspect of your celebration, from your personal flowers, such as bouquets and boutonnières, to the ceremony and reception décor.

Mike Larson, Mike Larson Photography, another member, began his career as an international photographer, traveling the world in search of exotic locations and beautiful cultures to photograph. Now he is also widely acclaimed for both local and destination weddings, and his goal is that the images of your celebration be more than just a continued reminder of that day in a book, but also a reason for the family to come together through the years to recall the splendor of your special day. 

The fourth member is  Jennie Sturgeon, owner of Trumpet Vine Catering, a team of professional and enthusiastic chefs, event managers, and service staff dedicated to providing tasteful cuisine, well-orchestrated events, and meaningful life-long memories of your wedding celebration. Trumpet Vine has an established reputation for providing unique cuisine, and has an impressive list of innovative  area  “firsts”:  opening and managing an event venue.

These four professionals  have accumulated  over 35 years of  experience working with other Central Coast vendors, and bring you only the best in wedding planners, designers, and venue coordinators at their Open House events. 

Their cohesive approach is designed to let you enjoy what can normally be an arduous process, involving lots of driving between vendor meetings. 

Instead, Broad Street’s comfortable presentation lounge affords a relaxed manner where you can taste sample menus, view examples of wedding designs, listen to music selections, and taste a variety of wines. There are no sales pitches here, because  the goal is strictly for the Broad Street group to get to know you, provide you with the latest in wedding information and trends, facilitate collaboration between vendors, and do what they love best, help you create a uniquely magnificent wedding.

Whether you live in the Central Coast area, or you’re traversing the country, or the globe, for a California destination wedding, at your service,  you’ll be given the precious gift of time and knowledge, and you’ll leave your selected Broad Street Event Group’s Open House event feeling a sense of friendship, trust, and peace of mind.

Call Broad Street, or any of these dedicated individual vendors for more information.
