The Coda's Collective

My husband and I hired Charley and Coda to plan our 240-person wedding in St. Louis from out of state. Shortly after signing, Charley relocated to Australia and her business partner left the company. We were assured service would not be affected, but throughout planning we found ourselves managing budgets, vendor follow-up, logistics, and unresolved planning items that we expected a full-service planner to handle. Important design and operational decisions remained outstanding despite repeated requests. We had to request design renderings ourselves, and some items required expedited production at our expense. Two days before a final walkthrough that required our travel from New York, Charley informed us she would not attend. After the wedding, we learned custom design elements were never used. Despite raising concerns throughout the process, we received little accountability. I would not recommend working with Charley and Coda.

I had Charley and her team help create our dream wedding. When I first starting looking into planning the wedding I was so lost. I reached out to Charley & I never looked back. Her teams creative design, the logistics to the presentation of the event was flawless. It was really nice having someone in our corner for the whole process. From advice to getting it done, the team at coda collective was incredible. Highly recommend for anyone requesting their service. Our wedding was help in Kirup, Perth (in the south west).

It was wonderful working with the coda’s collective. Charley helped make our vision for our wedding day happen. She was easy to work with, kept us on task, and helped guide us through the process. Highly recommend!

Our experience with CODA Events was deeply disappointing. From the start, the planning process was riddled with disorganization and a lack of transparency. We were repeatedly misled about whether they had communicated with vendors, and we received no reassurance during critical moments. Midway through planning, our coordinator Charley relocated to Australia without informing us when we initially booked her services and the time difference made communication nearly impossible. When a serious family health diagnosis forced us to cancel our wedding, CODA remained inflexible and continued to pursue payment, despite the circumstances. In contrast, other vendors showed compassion and refunded us generously. The lack of empathy and professionalism from CODA left us feeling frustrated and unsupported during an already difficult time. Avoid the stress look elsewhere for your event planning needs.

As a venue owner, I’ve had the opportunity to work with many planners, and I can confidently say this company stands out as one of the very best. Their professionalism, organization, and attention to detail were exceptional. Every aspect of the wedding was executed beautifully, making the day seamless for everyone involved.

I had a great experience with Coda's Events for my wedding on 9.24.22! They were incredibly detail-oriented, adding a special touch to every aspect. The team's fun and positive energy added to the joy of the day. Their meticulous planning ensured that everything ran smoothly. Charley especially understood the assignment. She got my vision and vibe right from the start. Highly recommend Coda's Events for a memorable and stress-free wedding!
