MEET YOUR PLANNER

GWYN RIDER─ CENTRAL OREGON WEDDING PLANNER

Why hi there!! My name is Gwyn Rider and I’ve been wedding planning in Central Oregon for over 5 years now. I celebrate and cherish marriage deeply and find it a privilege to be apart of so many couple’s wedding days! I’m a ‘here for the love and stay for the party’ type of gal. I’m all about finding and creating pockets of peace. I truly believe your wedding day should be full of joy & celebration and memorable only in the best ways. It’s my goal to make your day as stress-free for you as I can, and of course, one heck of a good time.
I’m passionate about creating spaces with intentional detail and for you to be able to freely celebrate your love with the people you love. I’m here to help, here to ease, and here to celebrate alongside you.
I constantly feel so honored and grateful to be able to work in the wedding industry and walk alongside brides from day one through day-of.

I CANNOT WAIT TO WORK WITH YOU.

Xx Gwyn

On a Personal Note,

I was born in Santa Barbara, California, raised in Eugene, Oregon, and moved to Central Oregon in 2016. I’ve been married to my husband going on a decade now and am grateful for the life we’ve built together as parents, business owners, dreamers, lovers, and friends. When I’m not designing and planning, you can find me jammin’ with my girlies, my minis; my two amazing daughters. I home school my sweet girlies as well as coach their local softball team in the springtime. I lost my mom to a quick battle with cancer when I was 26. Her life and death was a large component that has shaped me greatly. In her death, I was given the gift of knowing just how short and delicate our lives are here on earth are and that all that matters, is how well we love each other.  I hold my relationship with Jesus highly and I surround myself with a beautiful and wonderful community of women that have been such a lifeline in my everyday, as we do life together. I strive daily to be the best mom, wife, and friend that pursues health and wholeness I know I’ve been called to be.

I’m truly honored you’re here and if you feel I am your people, please reach out. I’d love to meet you!
