Rogue Petals 

5.0

San Diego, CA
  • Florist
  • Starts at $2,000

Hello from Rogue Petals! I am Victoria the owner and lead floral designer. I love flowering weddings with the timeless natural beauty of flowers. I believe every event, big or small, deserves to be adorned with fresh blooms and crafted to reflect your unique style and personality.

Victoria was truly exceptional from start to finish. I was in the middle of moving and renovating while planning our wedding (and I’m colorblind) so needless to say, I needed all the help I could get. Victoria guided me with so much care, helping me shape a vision I wasn’t even sure I had into something stunning, cohesive, and completely personal. When I saw the flowers on our wedding day, I actually cried. They were beyond beautiful!!. But even more than her expertise, what stood out was Victoria’s kindness, patience, and honesty. She worked with me and my budget with such grace, and I always felt heard and supported. If you’re looking for someone creative and genuinely lovely to work with, Victoria is it.

Brittany was absolutely amazing on our wedding day! She blended in so seamlessly that we barely noticed the camera, yet she captured the most genuine, intimate moments. Her ability to read the room and anticipate what’s about to happen is unmatched. Every photo tells a story, and we’re blown away by how she managed to capture the essence of the day so perfectly.

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,500

Hey there, I'm Ben! I believe photography is not just about clicking the shutter at the right moment. It's about capturing the essence of a moment, the emotion, the feeling, and the story behind it. My style is all about telling stories of love, laughter, tears, joy, and all the beautiful chaos in between. Just like your wedding day, every photo shoot is a unique, amazing, and important experience. That's why I pour my heart and soul into creating and capturing the special moments that make each photo shoot memorable. I'm not just taking pictures, I'm crafting narratives. We're not just making photos, we're making memories.

Ben Straily Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with on the wedding day! His communication was honest, quick, and genuinely helpful throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was nothing short of perfection - clean, natural, timeless, and modern. They were great at directing us as a couple and always arrived on time, which put our minds at ease on the big day. We trusted them completely to handle everything seamlessly, and they exceeded our expectations in every way. I would highly recommend Ben Straily Photography to any couple looking for a talented, reliable wedding photographer.

San Diego, CA
  • Planner
  • Offers 6 services
  • Starts at $1,800

We are a full-service wedding and event planning company dedicated to once-in-a-lifetime celebrations. Let I Do… make your vision a reality. Whether you’re planning an intimate affair or an elaborate celebration; you deserve to have a coordinator that will be there with you you every step of the way. We will assist in keeping you organized, and ensure that even the smallest of details do not get overlooked. Our coordinators will advise you in designing, organizing, and executing your event, while making sure your style and personality are at the forefront.

Where to even begin! Jill Hudgins was our wedding planner/saint for the 8 months leading up to our wedding. When I say I can’t imagine how any of our big day would have been possible without her - I absolutely mean it. We knew from our first introductory call with Jill that she was going to be such a great partner and friend through the process. She was thoughtful, organized, and brought the best energy to every detail! When it came time to find and vet vendors, she actually ended up saving us quite a bit of money by either finding identical less expensive vendors or by reviewing contracts and removing unnecessary charges. The real magic happened during the week of our wedding and we needed some emergency rentals - Jill came through with some contacts and got it immediately sorted for us. I got so many compliments on how relaxed I seemed on my wedding day and it was because I knew Jill had my back and everything was going to be perfect. I cannot recommend Jill Hudgins enough. I already miss working with her and I know she will elevate any couple and wedding she works with in the future. Do not miss the chance to partner with such a great planner! Thank you, Jill!

Everlasting Events is a full service wedding planning company founded by Kristi Bulish and based in San Diego, California. We offer everything from month-of coordination to full service planning and design. Our biggest desires are that you and your partner have the BEST day and a celebration that represents what you love most as a couple.

Awarded Best of Zola
I can say without a doubt that I would not have made it through the wedding planning process without Kristi. It was obvious from the start that she has plenty of expertise in this area and she offered her advice in a gentle, non-judgemental manner. For instance, my fiance liked the idea having the ceremony in a particular location followed by an immediate conversion into the reception area after the ceremony; Kristi calmly and kindly explained that this endeavor was harder than it looked and helped us brainstorm different options. She never once made my fiance or me feel that any of our ideas were trivial or stupid; she listened with excitement and spoke with encouragement while also knowing when and how to point out the pros and cons of pending decisions. She went above and beyond in every way possible: when it was clear that family drama was taking its toll on me, Kristi offered numerous times to be the point of contact for a certain family member so as to take stress away from me. I hope I did not take too much advantage of that as it felt like I was using her as a scapegoat. From engagement to leaving the reception, Kristi was patient and kind and was an absolute delight. Her capacity to keep all of the numerous details straight and to recall them instantly was mind-boggling and to boot, she did it all with a calm, unflappable demeanor. I don't think I will ever be able to thank her enough for all she did.

Beauty by Heather Arnold

San Diego, CA
  • Beauty professional
  • Starts at $150

Hi, I'm Heather and my passion for enhancing a woman’s beauty is the reason I became a makeup artist. I have spent the last decade helping my clients showcase their best features, making them feel confident and beautiful. I am known for my soft and natural touch, providing a classic look that my clients will enjoy looking back on for years to come.

I am so grateful to have found Heather! As someone who doesn’t typically wear a ton of makeup, certainly not wedding-level glam on a regular basis, I was nervous about finding a makeup artist for my wedding who could make me feel like a better version of myself. But Heather did exactly that! I found her through a recommendation from my wedding planner and booked a trial several months in advance of the wedding (because I was nervous, stressed, anxious!) and did both a hair and makeup trial. Heather was super sweet from the beginning and the trial went so well. She listened to the things that I like makeup/color wise, used some example photos I provided, and learned about our wedding vision and myself – then she executed my wedding look perfectly on the first try! And she brought Nancy to do my hair, which also looked amazing even without extensions in. I was instantly SO relieved that I had found my beauty team on the first try – there was no need to shop around! I showed my photos from my trial to my bridal party and they all agreed and we booked Heather & her team to do both services for all of us. Heather was so easy to work with and is such a kind soul. Everyone who got their makeup done, ranging from our 13 year old junior bridesmaid to MOB loved their hair and makeup. Even the picky ones! We all looked stunning on the wedding day. AND – I’m a huge crier (happy tears flowed ALL DAY) and my makeup stayed looking amazing! I would absolutely hire Heather for any special event makeup in the future and would recommend her and her team for bridal parties 100%. Thank you for helping me feel my most beautiful self!

Welcome. Our bakery is 100% vegan and your guests will never know! We pride ourselves on the quality of our baked goods and cakes. We are here to show that food made without animal products is not a sacrifice.

My husband's family has a number of allergies including dairy, tree nuts, peanuts, and gluten. They also love dessert. We were worried about finding a cake that would work for everyone, but Hazel & Jade absolutely knocked it out of the park. Their cakes, despite being free of dairy and nuts (and they have a gluten free chocolate as well), was absolutely delicious. Everyone at the wedding loved it (even those without allergies/dietary restrictions)! Taste aside, the presentation was also stunning. Finally, they were able to deliver it to the venue without any issues. Would definitely recommend this bakery to all.

I love to dance and have a good time (seriously, I WILL be out there on the dance floor with you).

Kayley was recommended to me by a good friend who had worked with her for years. To say that I was impressed with her work would be an understatement - she blew me away. Not only did she fit within my budget needs, she came up with a plan that captured everything I wanted. My husband had a photographer there when he proposed, so we didn't do the traditional engagement and then wedding sessions. We ended up with an amazing motorcycle couples shoot, a boudoir shoot, and wedding coverage. Kayley was quick on her feet at our wedding - we had 300 guests spread out across a decent sized park with multiple buildings. She not only kept up, she also kept it together during an insane thunder storm at the end of the night! It was such a lovely and easy experience for my husband and I while we planned such a large wedding, we will definitely be coming back to her for future photography needs!

Cecelia is everything you want in a wedding photographer - professional, creative, approachable, chill, and very intuitive as to reading you and your partner while taking photos. With natural direction, she let us be in the moment and captured the magic of just us being us. She made us feel very comfortable and our photos did not feel posed or forced, she was amazing at giving direction for a pose and letting us sink into it, capturing a lot of natural candid in-between moments - which is what I was wanting! She has a genuine light about her and puts so much heart into her work, and it shows. We met Cecelia through Instagram and had her take our styled engagement photos. She was very communicative beforehand and was responsive to my personal vision for the photos. She helped with wardrobe choices, met us on location, was a joy to be around. She also delivered our photo gallery in a very timely fashion. Oh and the photos - WE. WERE. BLOWN. AWAY. They were everything we wanted, and her edits were perfection - not too much, and still captured what the light looked like that evening.

Flores Arturo 

5.0

San Diego, CA
  • Florist
  • Starts at $7,000

A.H.R. florals is the love child of Arturo H. Ramirez, born & raised San Diegan and lifelong creator. Growing up picking massive french hydrangea from his Tita's garden and pretending to walk down the aisle wasn't for nothing. With a background in fashion design and a career in creative direction, Arturo was led to his own venture in floral design. What started as a helping hand for family weddings and parties turned into a passion that led to full floral installations and event design. Arturo takes pride in his ability to create a comfortable, fun environment and makes sure you receive your goods with a smile and a laugh.

Arturo is such a creative talent and his florals are pieces of art that scream originality. I remember sitting down with him only having a vague idea of what I wanted and he was able to take little comments about color, personality, and lifestyle to whip up a vision that was spot on. It was refreshing to have a florist who just ‘gets it’ and not have to spend hours scouring the internet for outdated images of arrangements that I didn’t like anyway. Most importantly, I was one of Arturo’s 2020 brides (EEK!) and when I had to change venues he was incredibly gracious even though things did not work in his favor (through no fault of his own). When I didn’t know how to navigate the situation, Arturo contacted the new florist to try and keep our original plan intact and ensure his vision for my personal florals matched the reception florals at the new venue. The best part about working with Arturo was that I never had to worry. He’s flexible, funny, and has a great personality. He sets a high standard for himself and his work so I knew I would love whatever he designed. After working with him, I’m confident he could turn my least favorite color and plants into something I would like. He’s just that good. I cannot recommend him enough and I’m still looking for excuses to use Arturo again in the future!

This woman has some talent, but her professionalism and sweetness is something that is admirable! Not only is she kind, but shes on time, and very communicative! Very personable. I chose her solely on her braiding skills. I had asked for a braided updo for my wedding. I reached out to her, booked my trial, and even the "rough draft" hair was just stunning! Not only that, she taught me how to use my clip-in extensions I had gotten for the wedding as well. Very happy with my choice in hair dresser and I swear I would just drive down to San Diego to get my hair styled by her again.

I seriously cannot say enough good things about The Sweet Co. We hired them for our wedding dessert and went with their cannoli bar, it was a huge hit!! Our guests are still talking about it. The entrance on the dance floor was unique and it tasted amazing. The team was super sweet and professional, and honestly made everything so easy for us. Everything was so perfect and they served with such a good vibe. It really added something special to our day. 10/10 recommend!

Mission Trails Regional Park Visitor Center is the best kept secret and absolute jewel of a location for an event. I had my wedding here and you have access to the whole building, terrace, movie theater and amphitheater. It was a JOY working with Janet (operations manager). Perfect venue for amazing views and unique setting great for nature lovers. Maybe the best part is that what you pay to rent the facility goes to the MTRP Foundation to support the park- it's like making a donation! We loved that so much. Thank you for a beautiful venue for our wedding- it was a SUPERB experience from start to finish!
