We had the pleasure of working with Robyn and Katie as our day-of coordinators, and they were fantastic! They were organized, attentive, and professional, all while being friendly, calm, and easy to work with - the perfect combination for one of the most stressful days of your life! Even before the wedding, Robyn & Katie helped out immensely with a solid kick off call to get the ground running, hair dresser recommendations, and handling any last minute items that popped up week-of with the vendors. Our venue was historic and required specific insurance requirements that R&R Collective was proactive in making sure they met. On our wedding day, they handled set-up and take-down flawlessly, and kept our vendors and timeline on track while still allowing us the space and flexibility to adjust for any last-minute desires. They were attentive to our own and our guests’ comfort and checked in with us just the right amount, helping create the beautiful, relaxed atmosphere we always envisioned for our wedding. :) Pictured: us cutting the cake — with some much-appreciated, on-the-fly coaching from R&R to make sure we got the perfect shot.

On the actual day, Katie handled all the table setup and decor while coordinating with every vendor to keep everything on track. Her work ethic was unreal—she was on top of every detail and made sure our day felt truly special. We have nothing but praise for her and will never stop recommending her to anyone planning a wedding. Katie is a gem, and we're so grateful she was part of our celebration.

Awarded Best of Zola
I contacted Terri, at TMF, to discuss my daughter’s upcoming bridal shower and she was amazing!  I had a few ideas of what I was looking for and she understood what I was imagining and really refined what I was thinking and converted my few thoughts into a cohesive theme and a beautiful event for my daughter! The bridal shower was beautiful!  The decor, theme, drinks, food, tables and chairs, decorations, umbrellas… and so many details… all came together so beautifully. It was quite impressive to see the event space transformed into my daughter’s dream shower! Because Terri is so creative, organized, resourceful and is a great communicator, I was able to host my daughter’s bridal shower and actually participate and enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime moment stress free.  I highly recommend contacting Terri/TMF to anybody who wants a true professional to create an amazing event guests will really love and you can be proud to host.

Taylored To You Events was absolutely essential to making our wedding everything we dreamed of. From the very beginning, Taylor guided us through the planning process with so much expertise and care. She handled all vendor communications seamlessly, which was a huge weight off our shoulders, and crafted a detailed day-of timeline that ensured everything ran like clockwork. My (now) wife and I tend to stress over details, but Taylor’s experience and professionalism made her incredibly effective at keeping everything organized and on track. Her 30-day takeover was a lifesaver—it allowed us to step back, enjoy the final weeks leading up to the wedding, and trust that everything was in great hands. On the wedding day, Taylor’s team executed everything perfectly. We didn’t have to worry about a single thing because her careful planning and coordination ensured every detail was taken care of. If you’re debating whether to plan your wedding on your own or hire a coordinator, do yourself a favor—invest in Taylor’s services. The peace of mind and flawless execution are worth every penny. Highly recommend Taylored To You Events!

Thanks for visiting Breezy Day, we are so happy you are here! We are a sister team in San Diego, committed to helping you make your engagement & wedding day a breeze! WE CANNOT WAIT TO GET TO KNOW YOU!

I used both the wedding coordination and floral services from Breezy Day and both services went above and beyond, making our wedding day perfect. Courtney was our wedding coordinator and she made the process so much easier. I was so stressed about the wedding planning process until I met Courtney, I wonder if we would have even had a wedding if I didn’t meet her to be honest! From the initial phone call, she explained the wedding planning process and reassured me that we could have a great wedding within our limited budget. She had a list of vendors she recommended which I picked all of my vendors from and it made the process of selecting vendors so much easier. Courtney was always able to help answer my questions throughout the whole year of planning and always responded in a timely manner. Then, on the day of the wedding, Courtney made the entire day so smooth and it went just as planned. I cannot recommend Courtney and the wedding day of coordinator services more. I don’t know what I would have done without her! The florals from Breezy Day Weddings were also incredible. They were more beautiful in person then I even expected. I chose the a la carte options from the Shoppe and the florals were so beautiful. Heather was great and very responsive when I asked questions about the process. The florals were seamlessly delivered to the venue on the day of the wedding and Courtney set the centerpieces on the table for me and placed the florals on the cake and it was so stunning. The service from both the day of coordination services and the florals were 10 out of 10! I cannot recommend them enough. They were affordable, professional, efficient, friendly, reassuring, and just amazing all around. If you’re getting married, you need to hire them for your wedding! Thank you again, Courtney and Heather!

Armed with a Project Management Professional (PMP) certification, I possess the expertise to seamlessly manage all aspects of your wedding, ensuring that every detail assigns with your vision and goals.

Awarded Best of Zola
If we could give more stars we would, Lily ABSOLUTELY deserves it. She was perfect as our wedding coordinator! Even before we officially hired her, she offered to meet me at the venue while I was visiting from out of state, which immediately showed her thoughtfulness and dedication. Her genuineness is what made me confident she was the right person for the job. Before her services officially started, she was always available to answer questions and offer guidance. We purchased the Champagne Package that included 6 weeks of weekly one-on-one meets. She made the meetings fun and something I genuinely looked forward to — thanks to her, I felt excited about the wedding rather than stressed! When she knew she would be unavailable during trip that overlapped with her scheduled service start time, she proactively started her services early to make sure everything was covered — such an incredible level of professionalism and care. Lily made the entire planning process feel seamless and joyful. Her energy, organization, and support on the wedding day were unmatched, and I truly couldn’t have imagined a better coordinator. She made everything feel effortless, fun, and memorable, and we are so grateful for her! Can't recommend her enough!!!

The best decision my wife and I made in the entire planning process for our wedding was hiring Carolyn and Fete Events. I can’t speak highly enough of Carolyn — she was professional, impeccably prepared, ingenuously creative, and a genuine pleasure to work with across the board. She made our wedding a beautiful, seamless experience and her help was truly invaluable. Carolyn was involved in discussions a couple months out from the event, providing guidance and a detailed timeline. Any speed bumps we hit with our venue or other vendors, Carolyn was ready to jump in and assist. She had answers to all our of questions and solutions to problems we hadn’t even considered yet. And that was all before the wedding weekend. On the day of, we didn’t have to think about anything but enjoying our day together. Carolyn had it all taken care of and her cool and calm demeanor kept us feeling comfortable. She provided her creative eye and aesthetic talents to elevate both the ceremony and the reception — it looked stunning!

Awarded Best of Zola
I'll be honest: I almost didn't write this review because I figured my wife would handle it. But Angela deserves to hear from the groom too. Wedding planning is one of those processes where you don't fully appreciate what your planner is doing until something goes wrong... and with Angela, nothing did. At least not that we knew about. That's the point. From our first interactions, it was clear Angela was more than just organized. Any planner can be "organized." Angela was *meticulous.* The timeline she built for our wedding was one of the most impressive planning documents I've ever seen: detailed, comprehensive, and thorough enough to even include outstanding balances and due dates for every vendor. She knew every contract detail better than we did. Maybe even better than the vendors who wrote the contracts! Looking at it, I remember thinking: "ohhh, this is why people hire planners." Angela didn’t just execute. She had taste and judgment. When our programs didn't fit the napkins as planned, she didn't just solve the problem. She came up with a solution that looked better than the original. When the rental company showed up with one too few tables, she rearranged things so seamlessly that no one noticed. As the groom, I can tell you: I felt completely taken care of. I could exhale and enjoy my day. I cannot overstate how *valuable* that was. Angela has this rare ability to run everything on a precise schedule while improvising masterfully when the moment calls for it. Equal parts conductor and jazz musician. If something went wrong at our wedding, I still don't know about it. That's Angela. Hire her before someone else does.

We are so grateful to Stacy and her team for all of their help. They are professional, organized, and so fun to be around. Our ceremony and reception went off without a hitch and I didn’t have a worry in the world. She also kept my dress FRESH! I didn’t think Wedding Day Styling was a thing but it is! Not only did she steam my dress to absolute perfection, helped me put it on to where it fit like a glove (after I faked getting ready photos with my mom lol), also bustled it in less than a minute, fluffed it out for photos, repackaged it at the end of the night, and overall made me feel like a princess living out her dream. My wedding was perfect and that was thanks to everything Stacy did!

You can search us on your preferred search engine or social media. Bryce Gaston Events brings an unparalleled standard of detail to high-end weddings in Southern California. We'll plan your wedding seamlessly by prioritizing even the smallest details and designing a day that doesn't just look stunning but creates memories that last a lifetime. We service San Diego, Santa Barbara, Palm Springs, Temecula, Santa Ynez, Los Angeles, Orange County, and beyond.

I can say with full confidence that our wedding would not have been possible without Bryce Gaston Events. From the beginning, Bryce took my vision and brought it to life in a way that exceeded our expectations and what we even thought was possible. Bryce not only ensured every detail was perfect but also advocated for us when it came to dealing with a VERY challenging venue that fought us on just about everything. Her extensive relationships with vendors gave us access to the best options, and she skillfully negotiated on our behalf, always keeping our best interests at heart. Even when my hair and makeup canceled 9 days before the wedding, she was able to help me secure the best artist who was better than who I'd originally chosen, myself. When the venue’s freight elevator broke on the day of the event, Bryce already had a Plan B in place, ensuring everything went off without a hitch. Thanks to her preparation and quick thinking, the day was flawless and our guests are still talking about our wedding! She was organized in the way she presented how everything would look day of, and always had a creative solution. Everything felt custom and tailored and was true to who we are. Her experience is truly unmatched. Truly every detail and minute of the day was accounted for with aisle planner and a schedule. If you want a planner who truly cares, has impeccable taste, is patient, and goes above and beyond to ensure your day is perfect, Bryce is the one. She was always accessible and had a creative solution for any issue that arose. I can't say enough about Bryce, but I know that we genuinely couldn’t have done this without her. I learned so much from working with her and I am forever grateful for how she brought my dream vision to life.

Olivia is incredibly detail-oriented and truly committed to making your day perfect. As a type-A person myself, I deeply appreciated her meticulous approach and her ability to stay on top of every little detail.

There are a lot of things that people regret on their wedding day. Maybe the flowers they chose or the music they picked or even some of the guests who were invited, but one thing that no bride will ever regret is hiring Corinne as their wedding coordinator. Not only did she coordinate my wedding which went off without a hitch, but I’ve assisted her in another wedding where I was able to witness firsthand just how much she does and how many small details she doesn’t let slip through the cracks. She strives to make the bride and groom as comfortable as possible, and to have to worry about as little as possible. She has an eye for detail, a commanding yet kind presence when instructing others, and most importantly, she makes sure that the bride and groom are able to truly enjoy the time together on their big day.

From the moment we booked Spark & Sage Events to coordinate our wedding, we knew we were in good hands. Amanda and her team were incredibly helpful, ultra communicative, consistent, and dependable throughout the entire planning process. Her attention to detail and clear communication style made our wedding day a low-stress experience. Amanda was SO attentive to guests, answered their questions, and managed vendor communications seamlessly. We also were able to have multiple meetings before the day, as well as for the rehearsal. She provided us with a list of amazing vendors and even lent us some additional items we could borrow on the day. It also felt very comforting that she not only got married at our venue (Scripps Seaside Forum), but also knew almost all of our vendors intimately from past weddings/events. Having access to AislePlanner and a venue planning site was such a game changer and helped us feel like we had a strong hold on the planning process. We truly received so many compliments from our guests about how smoothly everything ran. Spark & Sage Events provided high-value, affordable service, and I would recommend them time and time again to any couple looking for an experienced, dependable wedding coordinator!!

I have been officially working as a professional wedding planner since 2017. My love of all things weddings and events began at an early age. I worked at a country club in the summers before my freshman and sophomore year of college, I worked on the food and beverage staff which included being a banquet server, and can you guess which was my favorite shift to work, you guessed it, the weddings. Once I got to the point in my life where my friends were starting to get engaged and I was a bridesmaid in their weddings, I found myself taking on extra duties and wanting to be more involved that it hit me, I need to pursue being an event planner.

Miranda was absolutely amazing. We worked with her for a year to plan for our Sonoma wedding. She was recommended from a friend whose wedding she also planned and it was stunning. Even though she was not from the Sonoma area, she did an amazing job finding everything from the venue, to the vendors, photographer, and DJ. She has great attention to detail and really makes you feel at ease in the planning process. We had absolutely no idea what we wanted or what we were doing, but she made both me and my husband way less stressed on every matter. We even had a last minute DJ issue and she found us a new one right away. She helped set up food tastings and made sure we were on track for the big day in terms of seating charts and other small details. The wedding was perfect and she did a fantastic job telling us exactly what to do and where to be. She even helped my brother, the officiant, with what he was suppose to say during the ceremony, as this was his first time officiating. She did the signage, decor, literally everything and alleviated all the stress and jitters on our day. I couldn’t recommend her enough to plan and help on your day. I’d hire her again ten times over! Thank you, Miranda!!

Sweet Blossom Weddings

  • Serves El Cajon, CA

Founded in 2010, Sweet Blossom Weddings is a full service wedding planning boutique based in San Diego. We understand that love is in the details and your wedding is an experience that should last a lifetime for you and your guests. Our goal is to design a wedding that is unique to the couple and defines their personality through working together one-on-one in a relaxed and stress-free environment. With our guidance and expertise, we will help you with your wedding, your vision, and your dreams to make it the most memorable day.

Jess and the whole Sweet Blossom team are absolutely incredible. I'm a very type-A person so needed everything to be absolutely perfect - and to say it was perfect would be an understatement. Everyone in my life told me that something at some point wouldn't be what we planned or expected, something would go wrong (big or small), but it never did. Jess and her team of amazing assistants made sure everything was perfect, ran back to my room more than once to get things I'd forgotten, and never made me feel bad about it. During the planning process, Jess set up multiple calls with us, especially in the last 6 months, and always came prepared with a list of things to talk through, things we needed to be thinking about, and the comprehensive spreadsheet she put together for us was an absolute game changer. It had every detail we could have ever needed. I would highly recommend Jess and Sweet Blossom for planning your wedding - they will make sure every detail goes according to plan and that it's your dream wedding day!!!

We couldn't have been happier with our experience! The backdrop was absolutely stunning and ended up being one of the biggest focal points of our wedding. It photographed beautifully and tied everything together exactly how we had envisioned. From the very beginning, the entire process was seamless. Communication was prompt, professional, and incredibly helpful, which made planning so much less stressful. Everything was delivered and set up exactly as promised, and the quality exceeded our expectations. It looked even better in person than it did in the photos. Our guests commented on it all night, and it made such a beautiful backdrop for our ceremony and countless photos throughout the evening. Looking back at our wedding gallery, we're so grateful we chose them because it truly elevated the entire space. If you're considering booking them for your wedding, do it. They are reliable, talented, and genuinely care about making your day beautiful. We would recommend them to any couple without hesitation!

I attended one of Myranda Wright’s weddings and it was by far one of the most well put together and beautifully coordinated weddings I have ever been to. Her eye for design, attention to detail, and sense of timing were truly incredible. Every element from the flowers to the venue was absolutely stunning. I was one of the bridesmaids and I have been to many weddings, but this one exceeded anything I could have imagined. Myranda is the nicest and most patient planner, and her professionalism shone through every moment with her headset and all. I truly hope she plans my wedding one day!

We worked with Kristi from Everlasting Events for our wedding at Sunset Cliffs and I truly cannot recommend her enough. From the very beginning, she was so organized, responsive, and thoughtful with every detail. She helped us with permits, timelines, vendor recommendations, and answered every little question I had (and I had a lot!). She made the planning process feel so much less overwhelming and really cared about making everything run smoothly. On the wedding day, Kristi and her team handled everything with such professionalism and warmth. The ceremony setup was beautiful, everything stayed right on track, and I never had to worry about a thing. She kept us calm and made sure the experience was stress-free so we could actually enjoy the moment. If you’re looking for someone who is not only experienced but also kind, patient, and genuinely invested in making your day special, Kristi is the one. We are so grateful for her and the role she played in making our wedding everything we dreamed of.

Krista was a major support throughout the planning process. She consistently made it clear that she was available to answer questions and offer guidance whenever we needed it. The wedding day itself flowed smoothly thanks to her and her team’s organization and attention to detail. I was very specific about how I envisioned everything looking and the decorations I brought, and they put everything together even better than I had imagined. Weddings can feel stressful because you have a vision, but can’t personally manage every detail on the day of the wedding. With Krista and her team, you can trust they will handle everything so you can be present and enjoy the moment.
