Gretchen made my daughter’s 13th bday with her best friend the best memory and birthday yet. They were in shock and couldn’t believe the party setup (so was I)! I loved the customized gifts for each girl that made it extra special! The candy cart was so amazing too! So many amazing things included! I did not have to lift a finger!! Worth every penny and more!

"Gretchen was an absolute dream to work with!"

I recently hosted a beach birthday party for my 4-year-old daughter - Gretchen and her team were wonderful! From the moment we started planning, she was organized, creative, and incredibly efficient. The tent, tables, and signage were beautifully arranged, creating a magical atmosphere for the celebration. The team was friendly and professional, making sure every detail was perfect.  I am grateful for their exceptional service and would highly recommend Coastal Dreams Events!

"Gretchen made my daughter's birthday unforgettable!"

Gretchen and Coastal Dreams were absolutely amazing to work with. She totally brought my ideas to life. My best friend turned 50 and her daughter turned 21 so we had a big joint bash. I would highly recommend coastal dreams for your party decor and Gretchen is the sweetest!

"The ballon display was such a hit by everyone at the party!"

Gretchen is an absolute gem! Her creativity, attention to detail, and dedication to her craft always blow me away. I’ve booked a sleepover and balloons (arches, backdrops, etc) and she consistently exceeds my expectations. Her vision and work ethic are unmatched, Coastal Dream Events has a customer for life in me!

"Highly recommend using her to make your next event! extra special!"

I HIGHLY recommend working with Gretchen and her team! My daughter’s bday came out better than the photos.. her and her friends loved everything! We added our own beach towels for the guests and they matched perfect! Gretchen was so kind.. I will definitely be working with them for any customized event moving forward. Thank you so much for making this birthday so special.

"Gretchen made my son's graduation party so special and memorable"

Gretchen is amazing. We booked a sleepover for my son’s 10th birthday. I casually mentioned that he wanted a Stranger Things theme, but I laughed it off thinking that wasn’t very doable. Gretchen asked if I was open to her being creative and trying it out. She did not disappoint!  It was a very memorable party.

"She was very creative and amazed not only my son, but his friends too!"
