Best Day Ever Weddings + Events 
Rating: 5.0 (21 reviews)
Santee, CA
  • Planner
  • Offers 5 services
  • Starts at $1,800

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.”

Invisible String Photography

Santee, CA
  • Photographer
  • Classic style

We’re Chris and Briana, the husband–and–wife team behind The Lovers Photography — storytellers drawn to the quiet, soulful magic of moody sunsets, intimate moments, and love that feels lived-in and real. We’re partners in life, in art, and in raising our two little wildlings, who remind us every day why the small, fleeting moments matter most. Between nap schedules, messy mornings, baby giggles, and the beautiful chaos of family life, we’ve learned to celebrate the beauty in imperfect, honest, heart-wide-open living — and that’s the same energy we pour into every story we capture.

“I can’t say enough good things about working with this photography team. They are professional, calm under pressure, and incredibly thoughtful in how they move through a wedding day. They communicate clearly, respect timelines, and make the entire experience seamless—not just for the couple, but for every vendor involved. Their eye for detail is exceptional, and it’s obvious how much care they put into capturing genuine, emotional moments. They create a comfortable atmosphere that allows couples (and vendors!) to feel at ease, which truly shows in their final work. I always know when I’m on a wedding with them, the day will flow beautifully and the end results will be stunning. I would happily recommend them to couples and vendors alike and look forward to working alongside them again.”

From the sweetheart table arrangement to the delivery and setup, I did not have a single stress about my florals, and as a bride, I am grateful! All the arrangements were beautiful and absolutely everything I had dreamed of. After an initial phone consultation meeting, I knew I had found the right person to create the perfect floral vision for my wedding. Claudia created a potential flower recipe and color palette based on my existing color scheme, precisely what I had in mind. Claudia was also extremely accommodating with the various changes throughout the wedding planning process, like adjusting quantities for centerpieces and bouquets, which eased my worries. I highly recommend Kolibri Flower Lab; truly brought a wonderful touch to my wedding, and the day would not have been the same without it!”

“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!”

Champagne (maybe that’s why I love weddings) and sushi lover here! Photography has been my passion ever since my dad gave me my first film camera and introduced me to the dark room at age of 10. I lived in Japan for 12 years, and even performed on a stage there. I’m always up for a great road trip! I love tuna fishing.

She was wonderful to work with and I would highly recommend her.I chose Carlsbad Photo before I even picked my dress! When you meet people with a good heart who are loving life, everything around them is that much better. Why would you not want someone like that shooting your special day when you are surrounded by everyone you love? Her energy enhances everything and she will make you laugh so much! She will help you with questions beyond photos for your big day - she has a lot of experience and literally knows everything about weddings! She was pretty much our coordinator. She instructed us when to stop and kiss after we headed out of the isle, how to cut the cake, and even how to toss my bouquet to get the most beautiful pictures!!!And to me, the best part of booking Irina is that you will have someone on your special day who truly is the TEAM BRIDE!”

“Julep was the perfect sized wedding venue for our guest of 150. We loved that the design of the space was so clean and spacious, it was the perfect blank canvas for our how we wanted to make the space., while still having a character of its own. We also loved that we could hold the ceremony and reception in the same area. We had a number of elderlies in both sides of our families so it was really important to us that they didn't need to be moved from one location to another, and make sure that the space was accessible to them. All the amenities in the venue was great as well! They had plenty of bathroom stalls that were clean and spacious. Their Bridal Room was so cute and comfortable. The patio space was perfect for cocktail hour. Heather and Kirsten were our main point of contacts and they were both so lovely to work with. We really appreciated how organized they were and always being so quick to answer any questions, big or small. They were both so personable and made no questions feel like dumb questions. We really appreciated how organized they were, and how detailed they were in laying out details of our contracts and were so flexible with making any changes.

The photo booth itself was a huge hit—our guests couldn't stop talking about it and had a blast taking pictures throughout the night. The quality of the photos and prints was excellent, and we felt like we got real value for what we paid. Pixster went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly, and we'd definitely book them again for any future events. Highly recommend them to any couple looking to add something fun to their wedding!”

DJ Pat made the whole wedding process seamless, his music app was amazing and we couldn’t work at our own pace.

  • Serves Santee, CA

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 is a true professional with a creative vision and great imagination. She is so talented in capturing stunning images! Maya provided helpful guidance on posing and positioning to ensure we felt comfortable and natural in front of the camera. She was attentive to every detail, helping us select the perfect backdrops and locations. Maya's calming presence and warm personality made the photography experience smooth and enjoyable. The pictures turned out beautiful!! See it yourself!”
