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.

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.

KB Weddings & Events is a Southern California-based planning service designed to create seamless, thoughtfully executed weddings. I work closely with each couple to bring their vision to life while keeping the process organized, calm, and stress-free. With a structured approach and a focus on the details, I make sure everything comes together exactly as it should. From Wedding Day Management to more involved planning support, I’m here to handle the logistics so you can truly enjoy the experience and be present for every moment.

If I could give Katie and the entire KB Weddings team more than 5 stars, I absolutely would! From the very beginning, Katie was an absolute joy to work with. She was incredibly responsive, reassuring, organized, and genuinely invested in making our wedding day everything we had envisioned. Wedding planning can be overwhelming, but every time I had a question or concern, Katie was there with guidance, encouragement, and a calm presence that helped ease my nerves. As our wedding day got closer, I found myself becoming more anxious, but knowing Katie was coordinating everything allowed me to truly relax and enjoy the experience. She brought our vision to life even more beautifully than we imagined. Every detail came together seamlessly, and the entire day flowed so smoothly that we were able to be fully present and soak in every moment. What made the experience even more special was how wonderful Katie was not only to me, but to my entire family and wedding party. Everyone commented on how kind, patient, professional, and caring she was throughout the day. She made everyone feel comfortable and supported, and it was clear that she genuinely loves what she does. We received countless compliments from our guests about how beautiful everything looked and how smoothly the wedding was run. That is a true testament to Katie’s hard work, attention to detail, and dedication. Thank you, Katie, and the entire KB Weddings team, for helping make our dream wedding a reality. We are forever grateful for your support, your kindness, and the incredible care you showed us every step of the way. I wholeheartedly recommend KB Weddings to any couple looking for a coordinator who will treat your wedding as if it were her own.

Matt & I truly cannot say enough good things about our incredible wedding coordinator, Sandy. From the very beginning, she was extremely thorough, organized, and attentive to every single detail. She kept us informed and reassured through every step of the planning process, always one step ahead and never missing a beat. What makes Sandy truly exceptional is not just her professionalism, but her heart. In the middle of planning, we were faced with the sudden and unexpected loss of a parent—a devastating and emotional time. Sandy handled everything with such compassion and grace, stepping in seamlessly to manage the moving parts when we needed to step back. She was our rock, quietly making sure everything stayed on track while allowing us the space to grieve and heal. On the day of the wedding, Sandy brought it all together flawlessly. Every extra touch we had dreamed of, every tiny detail we hoped someone would remember—she did. And more. She created a weekend that felt not just organized, but magical. It was truly the best weekend of our lives, and we owe so much of that to her. If you're looking for someone who genuinely cares, who listens, who remembers the little things, and who will show up for you in every possible way, Sandy is the one. We would recommend her a million percent. No hesitation. Just book her—you will be beyond grateful you did!

Sunflower Event Planning was born from a true love of creating joy-filled celebrations. I started planning weddings and events for friends and family back in 2009 simply because it made me happy to see others happy. What began as a passion quickly grew into a calling.

She listened closely to my requests and preferences, then transformed them into an event that exceeded expectations.

Lily is an actual god among men!! The wedding wouldn't have happened without her. She was amazing throughout the entire process and stayed planning with me throughout her pregnancy. Lily is detail oriented, hard working, thoughtful, and inspiring. She understands the ins and outs of this industry so well and can manage any issue on the fly. When she found out she'd be 8 months pregnant on my wedding day, she provided a superhero lineup of a team. We had a fantastic day of coordinator (Krista) and the best ever coordinating assistant, Ellie, who literally sewed my dress 10 minutes before I walked down the aisle, changed me into my reception outfit, and gave me a carrot out of her own lunch box (you really don't eat on your wedding day). The wedding went so smoothly and it wouldn't have gone that way without the help of Lily and her team. She even showed up just to say hi to me on the day! Thank you Lily and Slay Events for giving us the best day ever. We'll hire you for the vow renewal in ten years ;)

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! There’s many more things I could say but the gist is simple: Carolyn is a freakin’ ROCK STAR. Hiring Carolyn to coordinate your big day is the biggest favor you can do yourselves. Full stop.

During college I got the chance to do a semester abroad in San Diego, and met this really special, handsome, American guy... You see it coming? YES!

Clemence helped us navigate coordinating our wedding from day 1 and truly lifted so much of the stress of planning off of ourselves. She was very easy to communicate with and always made herself available for questions or talking through certain aspects of planning the day. She took control of communication with our vendors several months in advance and was extremely organized. Her expertise with wedding planning & coordination made us feel very confident going into our big day. Clemence and her team made our actual wedding day and absolute breeze – my husband and I both felt like every aspect was under control and no one was left wondering where they needed to be next, and it was such a relief to not have to handle those details ourselves. We never had to worry about anything going wrong because Clemence had everything under control at all times. Her team was such a pleasure to work with, I highly recommend using them for your special day!

We hired Stacy very last minute and were on the fence about hiring her because we didn't have a lot for her to do as a planner but for peace of mind, we scheduled one call with her and were 100% sold. We had so many "little details" that we didn't want to get lost in translation or have to worry about. We also didn't want to depend on our bridal party or family members to help out because just like us, we wanted them to enjoy the day too. Stacy took care of everything and then some, even stopping to make sure we had our signature drinks and that we got to eat our appetizers. She went as far as making sure we got our wedding cake packaged up for later. She is so thoughtful and thorough. She also has a creative flair. We gave her complete authority with design and she made all of our personal items look even better than we imagined. We got married at the Wedding Pavilion and had our cocktail hour and reception at Italy Isola in Epcot. With all of the moving parts, Stacy was amazing making sure all of our personal items were where they should be and packed everything up at the end of the night. She worked well with the Disney Team and hiring her was one of the best decisions. We had a completely stress free wedding experience. Stacy with Meilani Weddings is the ultimate Disney coordinator!

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.

Stephanie Wooding (Owner / Lead Planner) When it comes to planning your event, it’s really about how that person (or team) embraces and uses that job experience in a resourceful and creative way. I’m a practical, organized, creative, resourceful, and resilient, “jeans and t-shirt” type chick. Well, the San Diego part of me is anyway. The LA in me is a driven, problem-solving, A-type, “take no guff” lady boss, that gets the job done on time, and within a realistic budget.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Stephanie Wooding and Best Day Ever was the reason we were able to actually enjoy our wedding day. We met with other planners, but Stephanie stood out right away — she’s warm, grounded, and incredibly organized. From the start, she made the process feel less overwhelming and helped us make smart decisions without pressure. Leading up to the wedding, Stephanie helped us stay focused, keep all the details moving, and feel confident that nothing would fall through the cracks. Then, about a month out, we transitioned to her associate Jenn Anderson as our day-of coordinator. We were a little nervous about switching that close to the wedding, but it ended up being seamless. Stephanie clearly set Jenn up for success, and Jenn was phenomenal — calm, proactive, and completely unflappable. The day itself felt smooth and stress-free, and multiple guests even told us how impressed they were by the coordination. That’s the biggest compliment — because it meant we got to be present, have fun, and soak it all in. We’re so grateful to Stephanie and Jenn, and we would recommend Best Day Ever to anyone who wants their wedding to feel truly taken care of.

From creating group chats with our entourage for open communication to creating a minute by minute schedule of the event. She was PERFECT! She also coordinated with all vendors and helped solve problems without having to involve my husband and I!

Being extremely type A, I was very hesitant at first when it came to finding the right planner, but I am so glad I found someone EVEN MORE type A than I was. Olivia was extremely helpful throughout our entire process and extremely detailed oriented. Every single vendor I worked with had nothing but amazing things to say about Olivia and how they're hoping they can work with her and her team again. When I was reading Olivia's reviews before, I saw a review that said she went the extra mile and took care of the dog that was in the wedding and I instantly knew she would be perfect as we had both our dogs in our wedding. Olivia checked on them in our room multiple times throughout the day. She also was the one who released them down the aisle which went perfectly! 10000/10000 will recommend!

I love to plan all events, especially Wedding's. I don't view this as work, I view this as fun and a hobby, and I treat every wedding as if it was my own. From Planning to Execution, I view everything as if it was my own event, so I strive for perfection in everything! I love to craft and can make anything that you need: Bridesmaids Gifts, Seating Charts, Hangover Kits, you name it, I can do it!

Samantha Vande Vegte and her team were incredibly organized and beautifully put together our entire wedding day. They went above and beyond in every way to ensure our special day went off without a hitch. Samantha personally made sure that every detail was attended to, from the gorgeous floral arrangements to the seamless timeline, so that my husband and I could simply enjoy ourselves and be present in the moment. I had the best time knowing that Samantha had organized everything exactly the way I had imagined it. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care for making our wedding dreams a reality were evident throughout the entire process. I cannot recommend Samantha and her team highly enough.

San Diego Life Events was founded by a San Diego local with a passion for planning weddings and events. Wedding Planning and Day Of Coordination is our specialty, and creating memorable events is what San Diego Life Events is known for. We listen to our Clients, and will work with you to bring your celebration to life! We are well-known in the community for our personable team, vendor connections, budget-savvy flexibility, and sense of urgency to deliver in even the shortest of deadlines.

From the very beginning, Rachel was not only a sweetheart but also a true professional. We hired her for Day Of coordination for our wedding at the Catamaran, and she made sure everything was planned perfectly and ran like a dream. When the notorious bike riders of Mission Beach rolled by just before the ceremony, Rachel skillfully timed the start to make sure they cleared the area. It was such a perfect day, and we truly couldn't have done it without her!

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!!

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!
