Meet your planner!

Hi, I am Meghan Goforth, owner and lead planner of Goforth Event Planning.

I am originally from Syracuse, NY but currently reside in the Binghamton area with my husband and son. I am a mom to a very active and energetic two year old, who keeps me on my toes. In addition to our son, we are also fur parents and have three rescue pups. I love to travel and when I am not busy planning weddings, you can find me on Pinterest gathering ideas for our next family adventure.

My favorite form of exercise is jogging and I often sign up for local 5Ks and other road races. I love sushi, pizza, and a glass of a good Cabernet.

I studied at SUNY Fredonia and SUNY Cortland where I earned my degrees in Spanish and Education. I taught middle school and high school Spanish for several years before my husband, Zach, helped me form my company in 2019. Since then we have been planning weddings and managing events throughout Upstate NY and the Southern Tier.

Meghan was an absolute dream to work with. I've worked with many wedding & event planners, but Meghan ranks up there with the best of them."
- Chris, wedding photographer

Meghan is the real deal - we can’t even begin to imagine how we could have pulled off our large and complex wedding without her. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!"
- Tom, 2022 groom

Meet the team!

Zachary

I am so lucky to have a job that I truly love, but I wouldn't be able to do it without the help and support of my team. Even luckier for me, my number two is my husband!

Zach not only helped me establish the business but he has also recently stepped into the roll of day-of coordinator. As an added bonus, he is also ordained. Zach can ensure your wedding runs smoothly and be the person that marries you to the love of your life.

In addition to helping me out, Zach is also a sales representative for a local company and works out of our home office. In his free time, he enjoys watching sports and movies, and has become an avid meat smoker, trying out new spices and creating sauces to go with them.

Laura

Introducing the newest member of the Goforth Event Planning team - Laura! Laura started as a volunteer intern in 2023, helping out with dozens of weddings. I am excited to bring her back this year as she officially steps into the role of day-of assistant. She will even be acting as the lead on-site coordinator for multiple weddings later this season.

Laura went to Vestal High School and just graduated from SUNY Broome, majoring in business and education with plans to also get a Bachelor's degree. In her free time, she enjoys reading, watching awful reality TV shows, and cleaning her house (believe it or not!). She loves to line dance and play with her one-year-old nephew. Laura is always eager to try new things and enjoys making decorative crafts with her Cricut.

"I am so enthusiastic to work with Meghan and all of our brides and grooms! It's so special to me to be a apart of such a life-changing day that is so unique to each couple. I am so excited to get to know all of you and your families, and to help make your wedding the best day ever!" -Laura
