I am an experienced planner and designer with a passion for connection. I grew up in North Carolina and love the idea of bringing southern hospitality to California. Creating opportunities for people to gather and celebrate life's precious moments with one other is what MBE is all about!
My approach is one rooted in intentionality, creativity, organization, collaboration, and also fun! I really enjoy getting to know my clients so I can curate a beautifully designed event full of custom details that is unique to them and what they are celebrating. At MBE, we not only put a premium on client experience, but also on guest experience, as we want both you and them to feel special and taken care of at all times.
MBE is based in the Bay Area but we work with clients from all over and we specialize in weddings, bridal showers, baby showers, dinner parties, and more!
MEAGAN BAKHTIARI
Owner + lead Planner & Designer
When I'm not planning events, you can find me hanging out with my husband and our two goldendoodles, Sprig and Clove. Most weekends we look for a new coffee shop to try (we both love coffee probably a little TOO much), preferably one with good donuts because who doesn't like a donut with their latte?! I also love fitness, fresh flowers, champagne, country music, charcuterie, and of course hosting impromptu happy hours at our house!

"From my very first conversation with Meag I knew that she was going to be the BEST! She was absolutely integral in making our wedding day perfect and seamless. Her confidence, poise, and professionalism are unmatched. She went above and beyond in every aspect and to her I am forever grateful! She is insanely organized and made every part of the wedding planning process smooth and stress free. Meag was 100% on top of the timeline, vendors, budget, venue, details, everything. She had fantastic recommendations and brought our exact vision to life. She's easy to talk to and her warmth and patience are contagious. Couldn't have imagined anyone better to help make our dream day a reality!"
Sidney and Conor (bride and groom)
"The best decision we made during the whole wedding planning process, was to hire meag. she is irreplaceable! meag was supportive, prepared, a great listener, and so organized. not to mention her kindness and calmness, even during the crazy times! Meag allowed me to feel at peace during my planning process. As a type a bride, sometimes it can be nerve wracking letting go of a little bit of control. meag didn't pressure me or make me feel like my vision was ever not good enough. she is the best of the best and i would recommend her 10 times over. we love you!"

"We had the most special first birthday party for my daughter this summer all thanks to meag! she was a true joy to work with -- so responsive, so creative, so attentive to our requests. she juggled multiple vendors with ease and made the entire event run seamlessly. she's also just lovely and has great energy. i can't wait to work with her on future events!"
Elizabeth and Jason (Bride and Groom)
"Meag Is Worth Her Weight In Gold! Not Only Did She Successfully Execute The Most Spectacular Day Of My Life, She Is The Reason I Was Able To Go Into The Day Fully Rested And Calm. Over The Few Months That We Got To Know Meag, She Became A Friend And Member Of Our Family. I Don't Think I'll Ever Throw Another Event Without Meag, Whether She's Helping Plan It Or Just Joining In On The Fun. I Truly Can't Recommend Her Enough! Thank You, Meag, For Truly Everything You Have Done For Us"
Joanne (Mother of The Groom)
"my now daughter in law found meag online as she was just starting her business. What a win! Meag was everything you might hope for -- organized, thorough, detail-oriented, calm, creative, personable, and a total pleasure every step of the way. her business should be fully booked in no time! line up her services while you can for a wedding or any event that needs coordination or planning!"
