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!

Korina and her assistant Ashley blended both professionalism and familiarity in their working style. Korina is personable, friendly, and easy to communicate with. Importantly, she initiated communication amongst all our vendors without us needing to ask her to do so. Amidst the busy summer wedding season of 2024, Korina was immediately responsive, constantly flexible, and tracked even the most minute details we asked of her. She answered our questions using her expertise and if there was something we had to find out, she was quick ​in response and immediate to action. For the wedding reception day, she notated which seats were for the young guests so as to remember where the coloring pages were to be placed, she was instrumental in placing each individual gift bag to match the names of our guests in their appropriate seats, and she was even our personal bodyguard during our 10 minutes of eating in peace! Korina's impact was so incredible that we completely forgot there were things we were supposed to worry about on the day of! Korina made us feel at home during a time of potential chaos and multiple moving parts. Our experience would not have shined as much as it did without Korina's leadership and behind-the-scenes work. And to think that she found our 150-guest reception to be a piece of cake. Imagine how much potential she has with your next event!

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!!

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.

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.

I can't say enough great things about Miranda and her team! From our first conversation, we immediately connected with her and she already felt like a friend. She quickly understood our vision for our wedding and what was important to us. She encouraged us to make it very personal and unique--she never shot down any weird ideas we might've had but also brought an experienced perspective, while also keeping us on track with all of the little details and scheduling. She was so well-organized and professional while also keeping things stress-free, light, and fun. There were no questions too big, too small, or too personal with all the drama that can come with such a big event. Miranda was easy to reach via text/email, and took the initiative to reach out and schedule check-ins when needed to make sure we stayed on track with the huge to-do list that comes with a wedding. Her vendor recommendations & other suggestions were awesome, but she also respected a couple of the areas where we found our own vendors with no questions asked. She truly helped us get every detail settled, down to the napkins and our catering order details. She took all the stress off once we got to the month of and leading up to the wedding day, confirming with our vendors so we didn't have to worry about it whatsoever. Our wedding day went seamlessly thanks to her--it sounds cliche but it was the most fun and beautiful day ever and we were able to really enjoy it thanks to Miranda. We couldn't have asked for a better planner and I would recommend her to anyone getting married in the SD area! She also helped us with signage for the day-of and did a beautiful job at a super reasonable price.

We service San Diego, Santa Barbara, Palm Springs, Temecula, Santa Ynez, Los Angeles, Orange County, and beyond.

Where do I even start!? Bryce completely blew us away! As the groom, I’ll admit, I went into wedding planning with the mindset of “we’ve got this, we can handle it all.” I was honestly hesitant about hiring a planner because I didn’t fully understand what they did. I quickly learned that I also did not know what it took to elevate a wedding from “just nice” to one where every single guest felt special, pampered and truly taken care of, from the jaw-dropping decor to the flawless floor plan. Bryce absolutely exceeded all expectations. She was incredibly patient and attentive to every single idea my wife and I threw her way. Bryce came to each meeting so prepared, calm and confident that we completely trusted her judgment and execution. Her organizational skills were top-notch, every action item was clear, graciously presented and backed with kindness. We felt like she was our champion, advocating for us with vendors and even the venue! And the best part? She made us feel like we were her only clients throughout the entire process. If you're planning a wedding in Southern California, you simply have to work with Bryce! Months after our wedding, my wife is still reaching out to her for random advice. Bryce is an absolute gem and she won’t let you down!

Detailed, organized, friendly, and just an overall wonderful human being. We hired Karen for 2-month coordination and right off the bat, she was such a thoughtful planner and her willingness to guide us through anything and everything was amazing. I love a good spreadsheet and Karen has the best!!! Every meeting with her was so productive and we left each one with clear next steps/homework. The day of the wedding, everything went SO smoothly. Karen and her team took care of setting up all of our decor and they did so beautifully! When I arrived to the venue and saw everything, I was taken aback by how stunning everything looked — we had a mix of florals, candles, and fruit for our decor so getting everything set up was no small feat. Karen’s creative eye flawlessly brought my vision to life and I am so so grateful! Outside of decor, Karen’s organization, vendor communication, and speedy cleanup at the end of night was top-notch. We were able to truly enjoy the night, knowing Karen was there. She even took fun videos of the reception on my phone, which were great to watch the morning after to help relive the night :’) Literally each one of my vendors raved about how much they loved working with Karen — if that’s not enough to convince you to hire her for your next event, idk what is! SUCH a pro. Would 100% recommend Karen to any couple!

Awarded Best of Zola
As soon as I got engaged, I was quickly overwhelmed with all the details and work that went into creating a wedding day. I didn’t want to just go through the motions of planning a wedding but I wanted to enjoy the process from start to finish and knew I needed a wedding planner to help facilitate this. After researching for a planner, I kept seeing reviews raving about Jenniffer at Pineapple Hospitality Events and I could not be happier to have found her. Her organization, keen eye, and patience was above and beyond - with every conversation, you can tell she pours her heart and soul into helping create your event for you. If Jenn was on it, I never had to worry about something getting handled. Her help far exceeds logistical planning but extends from keeping me on track, conversations with vendors, to helping remove a splotch on my dress with the supplies from her amazing bridal box. Wedding planning was going so seamless, that I knew I needed her help in planning my rehearsal as well! The rehearsal and wedding day could not have gone more perfect and seamless without Jenn and her assistant Kissy - if there was a hitch in the day, I would have never known! Not only can I not say enough about Jenn but neither could my vendors. Everyone talked about her energy, determination to get it done regardless of roadblocks, and her organization. With Jenn and Kissy’s touch, you will watch your vision and dream event come to reality!

My husband and I were blown away by the service provided by Heart and Sol Events! One of the best decision that we ever made was hiring them for day of coordination. Dre made the overwhelming process of wedding planning fun, easy and truly enjoyable. She is personable, down to earth and has a true passion for what she does. Her knowledge and experience in the field shoes. Dre and her team were there for us throughout the process and we could not have done it without them! A special thank to our day of coordinator, Denies Drum! We can't even begin to explain how blessed we were to have her be a part of our day. Denise was kind, genuine and radiated this calming presence that she carried with her throughout the planning process. She was involved in every detail from leading meetings with our vendors, to ceremony site reviews and setup, and even to discussing details about hair and dresses. She was patient and took the time to understand our vision and then was able to execute that vision with grace. Denise made herself available for several meetings via phone and in person with vendors to coordinate comprehensive schedules so that everyone was on the same page. I am positive that her attention to details and her continuous open line of communication is what made things run so smoothly on our wedding day. (If something went wrong or unplanned my husband and I had absolutly no idea because the Heart and Sol team had it all under control). All of our vendors had nothing but wonderful things to say about Denise and the rest of the Heart and Sol team. All in all.... WE could not have asked for a better experience. The day was better than we could have imagined.

I am a wedding photographer and I worked with Wind N Sea Events this last weekend for the first time. From before the wedding began, when they contacted me and delivered the schedule for the day, I knew it was going to be a great experience with them. Heather was so organized and helped the day run SO smoothly. She was fun to work with, very personable, very professional, and helped keep everyone on track. She was running around taking care of every little detail and making sure that it all was perfect for the bride and groom. I was very impressed with their services, hands down the best I've worked with, and would highly recommend them!

We’re two friends based in sunny San Diego, and we’re passionate about turning your dream wedding into a reality. While we call the West Coast home, we love traveling across the country to help couples create unforgettable celebrations. From the big decisions to the tiniest details, we can’t wait to be a part of your planning journey and make your special day as magical as possible. Let’s make your wedding everything you’ve imagined and more!

I could not be more thrilled to recommend Kate at Timeless Ties! As someone who was on the fence between a traditional wedding and eloping, Timeless Ties helped me envision and craft an immensely beautiful and special wedding. It encapsulated every bit of love and the joy of sharing the beginning of a lifetime together with our dearest friends. Leading up to the wedding, Kate was intentional about connecting with my fiance and I multiple times to help us plan through all relevant details for preparation. She walked me through her comprehensive wedding planning documents and to develop a wedding timeline. The planning documents included details regarding important contacts, space to assign wedding tasks, and so much more. She connected with wedding vendors, and was especially helpful in connecting with and working with the wedding venue. Timeless Ties even referred us to our dream photographer! On the day of the wedding rehearsal, Kate came for several hours. She helped map out all of the important placement and transitional elements, directed the rehearsal, worked with our DJ, and helped with so many other details. I was unaware of many things that came up in the last minute because Kate handled them all graciously and independently, giving me space to truly be present with family and friends at our rehearsal and rehearsal dinner, and on our wedding the following day. On the wedding day, Kate and her assistant coordinator arrived earlier than I did. Kate is the kind of person who leads by example and hard work; she spent hours setting up chairs, tables, placements, and arranging DIY decor. She worked well with our vendors and was the main point of contact for them the entire day. Kate was the maestro for our timeline and kept everything running according to schedule. During cocktail hour, she and a small team that she led completely changed the main grassy area from a ceremony set up to dinner set up. I wouldn't have changed a thing! If there were any snags in the day, I never knew about them as Kate handled everything. Kate is not only deeply competent, organized, and professional, but an absolute joy to work with. She cared deeply about the vision and priorities my fiance and I had in our wedding, really listened to understand what mattered to us, and spent the time to talk through any potential logistic conflicts to help us have a true understanding of the situation and all of the options available to us. Kate remained a calming presence throughout the wedding day, even as she managed so many details, which truly helped me stay present and able to soak in the day as well. Kate is kind, so positive, and connected with my family and friends. My wedding was one of the most special, incredible days of my life, thanks in no small part to Timeless Ties, and I had a blast spending time with her throughout the process as well!
