• MEET THE YES LOCAL DUO

    YES LOCAL is a unique wine and food tasting experience for intimate gatherings. There is no greater investment than quality time together.

    We have partnered with the best local vendors in Orange County to bring you a tasting room on wheels to your own backyard or one of our stunning private venues. From marriage proposals and anniversaries to stay-cations and date nights, we love creating unforgettable events for our glowing clients!

    Heather and Kristen met serendipitously after living parallel lives for years. They went to the same high school, Go Diablos! They’ve both been married for over ten years to pilots that happen to be in the Air Force previously and are now UPS pilots. Their kids are the same ages. They bonded quickly as they started juggling kids together on a weeknight to put a meal on the table and sit back with a glass of wine. They are entrepreneurs at heart that thrive on creating memorable experiences. Together they realized that their expertise combined to form something truly spectacular.

  • Heather Vaughn

    chief event planner, founder of The Yes Girls

    Heather has been a successful business owner for over 12 years planning authentic marriage proposals with memories that couples cherish forever. Her business savvy spirit realized years ago that no one in the market was specializing in this form of event planning. She took the idea, ran with it, and created The Yes Girls. Now she has a team creating beautiful proposals all over the country. As her business has evolved, her innovative spirit has launched concepts focused on relationship growth. She released a relationship planner last year, Schedule Me In. Her love of relationships and events is the reason we came to form YES Local centered around intimate gatherings that foster human connection. Heather’s ability to organize and create a seamless event with exceptional decor is second to none.

  • KRISTEN MUIR

    head sommelier, founder of our zesty kitchen

    Kristen has spent over a decade in the wine industry. She has traveled extensively to the major regions around Europe personally visiting with various esteemed winemakers and vineyard managers. She’s worked in the major culinary cities of the U.S. coordinating wine dinners and portfolio shows. For years, she personally managed the imports of roughly twenty small family owned wineries from Europe and South America. Her passion for wine led her to become a certified wine expert via the Wine & Spirits Education Trust in NYC. Her roots are deep, her palate is complex, and her excitement for the industry continues to evolve and grow with time. She couldn’t be more excited to share this expertise with you.

WE CAN'T WAIT TO CELEBRATE WITH YOU!

WE GIVE 10% BACK

We are thankful for the blessings from this business. Your thoughtfulness doesn’t stop after she says “yes.” The Yes Girls donate 10 percent of our proposal and wedding package profits to 3 Strands Global who directly aids Agape International Missions by selling handmade jewelry (made by the rescued sex traffic victims). AIM was founded on the grounds of Cambodia to fight trafficking, restore victims, transform communities while providing safe housing to women and children escaping the sex trafficking industry. Please feel free to contact us for more information about 3 Strands Global and AIM.
