“The Secret Garden was the perfect venue for our group of 105 guests in May. It has an intimate feel, but still feels open and welcoming. The flowers were in bloom and the grass was very green. The coordination team did an amazing job accommodating all of our set-up requests and took great care of us on the day of. We are very pleased with everything and loved the preferred caterer and DJ that were part of the all-inclusive package. Overall we found this venue to be one of the more affordable options, especially given you bring in your own alcohol/drinks and can take home what’s leftover. This saved us at least 50/person. The surrounding area and city of Rancho Santa Fe are gorgeous. Parking was easy and all our guests loved the venue.”

Epic Events Group

Rancho Santa Fe, CA
  • Planner
  • Offers 3 services
  • Starts at $5,000

At Epic Events Group, we are a team of wonderfully experienced event planners and coordinators that absolutely love what we do. While we manage several of our own venues, the heart of our company is utilizing our supportive packages all over San Diego County and the surrounding areas at venues that may seem less manageable or lean more on the DIY side. Any venue that allows outside coordination, we can support you at! We work with each couple individually based on your budget, style, event preferences, location radius, etc. to not only find the right venue, but support you from there all the way through the wedding day with our amazing team!

“The Secret Garden is the 'happiest place" in the world, ok--in San Diego--to get married! We set out with this criteria: We wanted our wedding day to be MEMORABLE. And it truly was thanks to EPIC.. If you are wanting to create a truly memorable wedding day, this is your place. If you're looking for intimacy where you don't have to share your special day in the middle of a hotel, on public or hotel grounds, or on the lawn of a golf course, this is your place. If you love to be surrounded by flowers and greenery without a hike in the woods, or at a public park, this is your place. What else makes a wedding memorable, is not just the day of, but the lead up to that special day. And that's where the EPIC team shines. We felt like royalty where we catered to, and that our every wish was their command. We felt the TEAM working with and for us to help us create that memorable wedding day. Kendra--whom we first met, not pushy in any sense of the word. Laura--the lead wedding coordinator who walked us through everything. Always with a huge smile, a hug, and creating everything with ease, confidence (which gives you confidence) and so chill. Drew--our coordinator the day of who walked us through not one but 2 wedding rehearsals because we weren't sure how the weather would be---and on the day of , he waited till nearly an hour before the wedding --cuz he knew we wanted to have it outside--to confer with us that the wedding would have to be inside--which was very LOVELY, by the way. He added so many special touches I can't count them. Mary--the manager, who was by our side when negotiating with the vendors. Always available. DJ Shy—OMG! He and I worked together fabulously, even at 7 am the morning of our wedding, we were fine tuning something that I wanted. And he delivered. As I write this, I realize the theme is: EPIC goes ABOVE and BEYOND to serve you and make sure you truly have the happiest wedding day! Rain or shine!”

Floreale Studio 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
Rancho Santa Fe, CA
  • Florist

For years, I worked in headhunting and business operations, where I specialized in helping companies find the right people and built thoughtful systems behind the scenes. Yet, I’ve always been creative and had often found myself craving a tangible form of creativity - something slower and more sensory. Floral design became an outlet, and eventually, my calling.

“Working with Val was one of the highlights of my wedding. Her creativity, communication, and genuine passion for her craft are truly exceptional. I feel incredibly fortunate that she was part of our day. I didn’t come in with a fully formed vision for our florals – just a color palette and a desire for rich, varied textures. Val took that loose direction and ran with it, coming back with thoughtful mock-ups and ideas that immediately felt right. She even wove in deeply personal touches, including visiting our home the day before the wedding to trim leaves from our Monstera plant that we’ve had for nearly a decade. That level of care and intention speaks volumes. Val and her entire team went above and beyond to make our wedding day truly special. I couldn’t recommend her more highly.”

When our bouquet arrived on the morning of our wedding, it was exactly what we wanted—the flowers were incredibly fresh, full, and vibrant, arranged with clear care and attention to detail.

“Four Seasons Flowers was very prompt in their responses. I was able to make an appointment with Carma to go over my wishes and photos I liked. When it came to my mock creation, we had three different centerpiece designs, Karen (the designer) was there to help tweak the flowers to look exactly how we wanted it to! The work was stunning. Our photographer was happy that we went with Four Seasons because he knew the flowers would look good and have water for the hot summer day. I guess some florist's flowers do not survive long enough for the photos, while ours were gorgeous the whole day. Their team set up and delivered my flowers smoothly all day. Not one point did I ever question if the flowers were going to be there on time. They were also very friendly. I highly recommend using them!”

“I can’t recommend Amari Productions highly enough! We used their services for the videography for our wedding and they were incredible. The team was so kind and professional, and the final product is a beautiful video that we still watch now, years later. The short ‘teaser’ video on instagram was also a really nice addition. I highly recommend working with Amari Productions!”

“Lily went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was what we wanted and more. She was very attentive to our wants from the beginning and her expertise shined through her ability to hash out finer details that ensured the day would run smoothly. Our reception was seamless due to her coordinated preparation and planning. We were able to fully enjoy ourselves, our guests and our vendors without feeling worried. Lily and her assistant, Wen, gracefully blended into the background throughout the night. We can't imagine going through the wedding planning process with anyone else because we truly felt like Lily was more than just our wedding coordinator - she was our mentor, cheerleader, and biggest advocate. We can't thank her enough for the support she gave us during our wedding process because she made it so much fun and that's such an important part of the process. Anyone would be so lucky to have Lily as their wedding coordinator, she will take the best care of you like it was her own special day.”

“From the moment we booked The Thursday Club as our wedding venue, it was stress free. Chris, the venue manager, was a pleasure to work with. Their communication was always prompt and effective, and they were incredibly accommodating to all of our needs. The fact that tables and chairs were already included in the rental fee was a huge bonus and saved us a lot of time and money. On the day of the wedding, I didn't have to worry about a single thing. Our wedding coordinator, Courtney from Breezy Day Weddings, was amazing and worked seamlessly with all of our vendors. I would highly recommend The Thursday Club to any couple looking for a beautiful, stress-free wedding day.”

“We couldn’t have asked for someone better, he did a phenomenal job from the start when guests arrived to the very last song. The music selection was perfect, it kept everyone dancing and was exactly what we wanted. DJ Pat made the whole wedding process seamless, his music app was amazing and we couldn’t work at our own pace. He was extremely responsive and gave us a great recommendation for our wedding game (which we keep getting compliments on!) I cannot recommend DJ Pat enough, he is the perfect person for the job!!”

I’m a people person. I’m observant, intuitive, and deeply inspired by real connection. I care about experiences, emotion, and the kind of moments that can’t be staged. I love photography because it’s storytelling in its purest form. It’s the ability to capture energy, emotion, and meaning in a split second. What drives me is creating images that go beyond aesthetics — photos that hold memory, movement, and feeling. For me, photography is about preserving what’s real, so you can return to it again and again.

“Maya exceeded every expectation. Her eye for detail, light, and emotion is truly exceptional. She captured our wedding day with such elegance and authenticity — every image feels intentional, refined, and full of feeling. Beyond her talent, Maya is professional, kind, and a joy to work with. Our gallery is timeless, emotional, and absolutely stunning. We would book her again in a heartbeat.”

“Hiring her was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. She was truly a godsend. From day one, she was incredibly responsive, empathetic, and always available whenever I had questions or doubts. I’m not naturally a “wedding person,” yet we had a large wedding, and at times the planning process felt overwhelming. She made everything feel doable and manageable, especially during moments when I was second-guessing myself. Her calm presence and reassurance made such a difference. She brings so much experience and is so well connected in San Diego, which made coordination seamless. Most importantly, she brought my vision for our big day to life with very little for me to worry about. I was able to actually enjoy the process — and the day itself — because I trusted her completely. I highly, highly recommend her to any bride who wants a smooth, beautifully executed wedding with a coordinator who truly cares.”
