I’m Anne—the heart behind Pacific Rim Event Planning (PREP).

With over 20 years of experience in event planning, I focus on crafting intimate, adventurous celebrations that feel just right for you. Whether you’re dreaming of a small ceremony with the ocean breeze or a cozy gathering with family and friends, I’m here to bring it all together—beautifully and with ease.

Based in Tofino, PREP specializes in elopements, weddings and custom events along the breathtaking coast of Vancouver Island and beyond. With deep roots in this magical place and trusted relationships with incredible local vendors, I turn your ideas into unforgettable, thoughtfully curated experiences. Every celebration is fully tailored - from intimate elopements and full wedding planning to day-of coordination and professional event support. I also bring the same care and creativity to anniversaries, birthdays, family gatherings, adventure-filled getaways and surf-inspired events.

What sets my work apart is a blend of European clarity and a deep love for the freedom of the West Coast. I guide you through every vision and decision with intention - so the planning feels clear, the experience feels effortless and the result feels entirely your own.

Let’s make something magical together. Excited to hear your story! · Anne

Rainforest Magic

Anne was incredible from start to finish. She jumped through all the hoops for us and made our vision come to life! The day flowed seemlessly and she thought of every little detail. She assembled a rockstar team for us and kept us both equally entertained! With several check-ins leading up to the big day, and a face-to-face meeting when we finally got to Tofino she made sure we knew we were supported every step of the way. She gave great local recommendations and had the inside scoop on the tourist hot-spots. With only one wedding day we are glad we got to spend ours with Anne!

Anne is everything you need and more!

Anne came to us with a glowing smile, and continued to do so the entire time she worked with us. Her personality is relatable, friendly, and brings a great sense of humor. She was confident with taking on the requirements of our day, fitting her services in with our needs, and made sure all details were covered and executed as we wished. She coordinated with all our other vendors to make everything flow, and helped to problem-solve when needed. She also kept the entire day on schedule right down to the beat, which isnt easy when managing a large group of people. All in all, she packaged up our special day with a big bow on top. Took the stress out of the little things, and felt like a part of our wedding party, we were so happy to have her on our team.

Made the day stress free + perfect

Anne is the exact person you want when planning and executing an event. She is detail oriented, can see the vision and make it come to life, is very organized, extremely professional and can handle any situation with class. She is very skilled at what she does and will go above and beyond for you. I highly recommend her services.

A beautiful perfect day

Anne was a pleasure to work with, very efficient, organized, professional, and fun. She took the time before hand with the bride and groom to make sure she knew their vision of the day and brought it all to life. As the mother of the bride I was able to enjoy my daughter’s big day spend time with her and all the guests and not to have worry about one little detail. Such piece of mind when you have PREP on your side. It was a beautiful day and we highly recommend her.
