About Heather
Hi there! I'm Heather, owner of Lucky Penny Events. With experience as a catering manager, event rentals coordinator, and venue supervisor, I bring a wealth of expertise to ensure your event is nothing short of exceptional. Let's work together to make your event the best it can be!
My passion for weddings and events stemmed from my many years of being in the industry. From managing a timeline to picking the perfect linen, I have a natural ability to stay calm under pressure, communicate all needs to vendors and wedding party members & design a wedding that is tailored to the couple's vision. It brings me joy to see the big smiles of not only the couple but the entire family on the wedding days. I would be honored to be a part of your special day.
The spark for my event planning business ignited when countless clients from my venue job voiced their belief that event planning was my true calling. Now, weddings and events dominate my days and nights, but nothing beats being home with my husband, daughter, and four adorable cats. Curling up with my kitties and diving into a Maas book is my ultimate sanctuary. IYKYK.

About Madi
Hello! I am Madi, Event Assistant and Social Media Manager with Lucky Penny Events. While I am young and newer to the event & wedding industry, I have been watching and helping my mom with events for as long as I can remember - both personal parties and catering. As a new and upcoming event professional, I bring a fresh eye and a keen perspective along with an eagerness to learn! When I am not working I am taking local hospitality courses to expand my knowledge of all things events! I am proud to be a hardworking member of the Lucky Penny Events team and look forward to bringing my contagious smile to every party we plan!
When I am not attending or planning an event, you can find me scrolling through Pinterest to stay abreast of the latest trends & fashions. I enjoy visiting local coffee shops, researching venues, and taking pictures of Ventura's natural beauty. I look forward to connecting with you and assisting with any details you envision for your big day!

"I needed help planning a 70th birthday celebration for a close friend and Heather at Lucky Penny Events came to my rescue!
Not only did she find a wonderful venue, but she helped with the theme and food. It was a magical evening. I would use her again and would recommend her to my friends!"
XoXo, Sandie
