So nice to meet you!

Chief Event Planner
CHRISTINE E. POLETTO
My name is Christine and my passion in life is planning and executing events. I live for the adrenaline (and exhaustion) of an event: Really, it's true.
My career background in corporate trainings, conferences, and incentive programs combined with my personal passion for weddings and private, events qualifies me to plan and coordinate just about anything that comes my way. I have prepared and built up to owning and running my own business one day and here we are nearly 3 years in.
I am a San Diego native, but spent several years of the last decade living abroad (both studying and working) in Vienna, Austria where I met my husband who I have since imported to the U.S. after years of making long distance work. It goes without saying that travel is a huge part of my life and my second passion (tied for dogs---Those are up there as well).
I can't wait to meet you and serve your planning needs!

Lead Coordinator
Giving people their magical day is my passion! This spark came from independently planning my own wedding, then finding out after that most people crave the feeling of being done with the process. Me? I couldn't get enough! My priority through coordinating with Threshold is to be the calm presence putting the pieces together for you to create your beautiful day, seamlessly making it all work. When not coordinating, you can find me with a book in my hand, pursuing great coffee, or enjoying San Diego's best local spots. I can't wait to meet you!

Hello! I have been working in events for nearly a decade and have loved every moment of it. My goal is to make each client feel known and taken care of. I've had the pleasure of coordinating and running the whole gambit of events, from birthday parties to corporate events, bridal showers to summer camps, and more weddings than I can count. My eye for detail and heart for people is essential in this industry. I can't wait to work with you on making your event dreams a reality!

What they're saying:
client testimonial:
''If you are considering using (Threshold Event Co.) for your wedding, DO IT. I could not be more happy with how my wedding turned out, and I could not have done it without Christine. She is soooo organIzed and on top of it, I have no idea how she does it …This woman has a gift. Threshold Event Co. works like a well oiled machine. They took all the most stressful parts of planning off of my shoulders. Christine not only crushed it with the finished product, but she made the process fun. She’s so personable and invested, I’m really going to miss talking to her throughout the process!!''

‘‘Planning a wedding across the country requires an immense amount of trust in the event planner and Christine put her heart and soul into our wedding. We actually joked the entire year of planning to our friends and family that our wedding was Christine‘s party and we were just attending it. We would also say the biggest compliment is the fact that we forgot that we were planning a wedding - more times than we’d like to admit.
Her warm, compassionate energy immediately felt like family and her expertise, vendor connections and organization was beyond comprehensible.
The only downfall is in order to work with her again we have to get married again - which because of her we have considered making it an annual thing!
We are forever grateful for Christine, her team and every vendor she recommended and connected us with! Wedding planner turned life-long friend’.’
