  Best wedding planner ever!

  When we booked Zoe to be our day of coordinator I knew we were in good hands, but what I didn't expect was that we literally struck gold with her! Her guidance in the months of planning before the day were so helpful and appreciated, she knows literally every single vendor in Tofino and every trick in the book, she always has a solution. Our phrase of the weekend was "Zoe take the wheel!" and boy did she, we didn't have to worry about a single thing. The actual day of went so smoothly and Zoe was with us every step of the way, making sure every single detail was executed so perfectly and that we always took a moment to take everything in. She goes so far above and beyond for her couple, it is insane! After an unfortunate mishap with my reception dress she literally brought me three of her own dresses to wear and saved the day! Her staff are all so wonderful and friendly to work with, the whole team at Rare Earth is truly exceptional. I won't be getting married again, but I recommend Zoe to anyone who is getting married in Tofino.

  Best day ever thanks to Rare Earth!

  Zoe and the team at Rare Earth go out of their way to ensure you have your dream wedding day! Leading up to the day, Zoe & Maude were extremely helpful with planning and bringing our vision to life. The actual wedding day was stress-free and exactly what we had hoped for thanks to Zoe. Zoe is extremely punctual and organized which we really valued! It was evident that Zoe really cared that we had the wedding day we had envisioned. If you’re getting married in Tofino, Rare Earth is truly the best!!

  Best day ever

  There are not enough words to express how amazing my experience working with Rare Earth was! They had originally been recommended to me by a friend who got married in Tofino the summer of 2022, who had nothing but good things to say about her experience as well. The entire team made the whole year of planning leading up the wedding as stress free as possible (talking me down from many stress induced ledges). Once the wedding day finally arrived, I felt so prepared and completely at ease, knowing that all the hard work was done and that the team would just take it over from there to ensure the day ran completely smoothly.. and it did! A major shoutout goes to my girl Madi who kept me sane the day of! Always checking in to make sure I was doing ok and most importantly, eating! Madi you truly were my wedding day angel and I can't thank you enough. I am still so emotional thinking about our wedding day and how perfect it was.... thank you thank thank you!!

  Beautiful and simple beach elopement

  Rare Earth was super easy to work with and did a wonderful job. We wanted a relaxed and small wedding in Tofino, and Rare Earth helped us complete this. The day of our wedding was so smooth and went off without a hitch.
  All of the other vendors they organized were also fabulous (bouquet was beautiful, hair and makeup did a great job, and cake was gorgeous too). They were easy to work with too and I really appreciated their flexibility- for example, they helped us make a dinner reservation and also organized a cake which was outside of our package.
  Madi was our day-of coordinator and she was kind and lovely and had such a calm energy. We also just got our photos back from Mayfly and June, and we love them too! Overall we had a great experience and would recommend them to anyone wanting to get married in Tofino

  Thank-you so much Zoe

  I work in project management so in the time leading up to the event I sometimes thought... do I need a planner? The answer, though my experience has only been with Zoe and the Rare Earth team is absolutely.
  
  Zoe helped with an initial free consultation to start putting our Tofino dream into reality and lay down the best vendors for the job. One month out she takes more control, coordinating vendors and making sure we could relax on the morning of the wedding as their team put everything together.
  
  As for the event, I am pretty sure she has clones; she was everywhere and everything to all people. Giving lifts to elderly relatives, co-ordinating the backroom food team like a seasoned orchestra composer and at one stage physically building a bridge from driftwood as a rogue wave hit the beach.
  
  We have been to weddings where things ran long and thus things were missed. Our pre-mixed playlist finished at 12.01 with perfect timing. Whilst doing all of this, Zoe came up to myself and my wife a couple of times and asked, 'Is there anything you need, or anything I can do to help' which was awesome.
  
  I watched the Wedding Planner the day after our wedding and she even puts J'Lo to shame.
  
  So Thank-you to Zoe (and her team) for making our day so magical. Dale

  Absolutely Speechless - Just Above and Beyond!

  So hard to keep this short but Zoe and her team made planning our elopement in Tofino seamless, fun and incredible. We decided to elope in 75 days and made us feel like it was do-able. From the start they were personable and very responsive. They kept us on track and helped us bring our vision to life (even when we weren't clear on what that was at times) Their connections with the best vendors in the area helped us secure the reception venue we wanted and reservations for other details. On the day of, Zoe and her team went above and beyond to make the day so special for us and helped take any anxiety off by being organized, clear and thinking of every detail so we could focus on taking it all in. If you are thinking of eloping in Tofino or Ucluelet, Rare Earth Weddings is the first (and probably only) call you need to make!

  Dream Tofino Elopement

  The Rare Earth Team (Zoe and Maude) were truly fantastic from beginning to end. Prior to the date, they were extremely responsive in answering all of our questions and ensured we stayed on task with the very few items we needed to complete (Rings, Marriage license, dress/suit). We chose to elope just the two of us and although they also do full weddings they made us feel that this was the perfect chose along the way - all the vendors chimed in as well about what a great choice we made. We had an officiant who didn't feel like the right fit and the team worked to call in a favor and quickly change her out.
  
  Once we arrived in Tofino, Zoe was truly amazing! She showed up with a little surprise the day prior at the same time our wedding would be to see the locations in the light that would be most similar. She walked us to a few spots and got us even more excited.
  
  Day of, Zoe had a great balance of letting us enjoy the morning/day but also checking in to make sure we didn't need anything. When it was time for TheKnotArtistry (Also recommend) to arrive, she came by to check-in and see if we needed anything. Zoe helped to get a small stain out of my dress from steaming. She recorded the entire wedding as we chose not to have a videographer and while we were getting our pictures done set up the most beautiful sunset picnic. We knew we got a charcuterie board but did not anticipated the beautiful candlelight picnic which was the highlight of the night. Lastly, our package included in-room massages the next day which was the perfect treat to a late night!
  
  Not only was the service exceptional and the elopement beautifully designed, but the value for the price was exceptional! I recommend Rare Earth 100 times over and wish we could go back and do it all again!

  Zoe is wonderful!

  Even though I wasn’t able to have my wedding in tofino due to a wildfire rare earth was so accommodating and helped me to the best of her ability during stressful times. She is such a kind soul and I’m very grateful for her and her crew.

  The perfect day!

  Zoe and her team at Rare Earth made our day absolutely perfect! The planning process was smooth and enjoyable. Zoe was flexible and a pleasure to work with, and helped us plan a unique and wonderful wedding day. She recommended a number of vendors (photography, videography, cake, venue, transport etc.) and helped us coordinate with all of them to make the day completely stress-free. She thought of things that would never have occurred to me, and kept on top of all of the details! We are so grateful for all her help, and would highly recommend Rare Earth to anyone considering a wedding in Tofino!
