Meet Kayla

Owner/Founder of Ophelia Events

Hello and welcome — I’m Kayla,, founder and lead planner of Ophelia Events, where timeless elegance meets thoughtful design.

As a first-time mom and wife of two and a half years, I know firsthand how meaningful life’s milestone moments truly are. I celebrated my own wedding at the stunning Estate at Florentine Gardens, an experience that not only deepened my appreciation for detail and beauty but also inspired my passion for creating unforgettable celebrations for others.

At Ophelia Events, I blend creativity with precision to craft events that feel effortless, elevated, and deeply personal. From intimate gatherings to grand affairs, every detail is curated with intention — ensuring that your day reflects your story with grace and sophistication.

My goal is simple: to provide a seamless planning experience that allows you to be fully present in the moments that matter most. Because your love story deserves nothing less than extraordinary.

Working with Ophelia Events…

Kayla Rizzo was one of the best and easiest decisions I made during the wedding planning process. She helped me stay calm during an incredibly stressful process and the day ended up going off without a hitch! I don’t think I would’ve made it through the wedding day without her! If you need a wedding planner/day of coordinator, Kayla is the best out there!

I highly recommend Kayla and Ophelia Events to anyone in need of a day-of coordinator. I planned every detail of my wedding myself and would have handled the setup too, if only I could’ve been in two places at once. I knew I needed someone I could trust to execute my vision, and I’m so grateful I found Kayla. We had two phone calls leading up to the big day, and I provided her with a detailed setup list and reference photos. She absolutely exceeded my expectations. Everything was set up exactly how I envisioned it!

I don’t usually write reviews. But, I’ve decided that you all need to know that Kayla and Bernadette of Ophelia Events are the best money you will ever spend for your wedding. Last minute, we hired them as our content creator and little did we know they would be so much more. In addition to just taking photos and videos, Ophelia Events was my advocate, friend, biggest cheerleader, emergency make up artist, emergency hair stylist and everything I needed in between. You may be wondering “do I need this vendor?” Or “is this ‘extra’ worth it?” And the answer is unequivocally YES. Our wedding would not have been as special as it was without their team.
