From our first conversation with the team at Ranch of the Sun, we knew we had found the right venue. They listened to what we wanted and answered our questions right away, making the whole planning process feel easy. We booked through WEDSTAY and appreciated how transparent and organized they were with every detail. On our wedding day, the venue itself set the tone for everything. Between the view and the fact that we got to bring our own vision to life. It truly did all came together to create the exact atmosphere we had envisioned.

Artistic Laser Productions

Valley Center, CA
  • Event extras
  • Lighting/AV
  • Starts at $1,750

A Marriage of Engineering & Art. You could say that laser light is in Marc and Paula Steger's blood. Marc's father was an electrical design engineer.....his mother was an actress, poet, and artist. Paula's father was a civil engineer....her mother was an artist. Laser show production allows them to use both sides of their inborn skill sets. They entered the laser show industry in 1999 and are extremely passionate about their craft. They work carefully with each client to produce a laser light show that enhances their event production with special event lighting and elevates it to one everyone will remember for years to come.

Artistic Laser Productions is absolutely top-tier. From start to finish, their team is professional, responsive, and incredibly easy to work with. The quality of their laser and production work is outstanding—clean, precise, and visually impressive. They clearly know their craft and take pride in delivering a polished final product while staying on schedule and accommodating event needs. Communication was seamless throughout the process, and their attention to detail really sets them apart from other production companies. If you’re looking for a reliable, high-quality laser or event production partner, I highly recommend Artistic Laser Productions. We look forward to working with them again.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired DJ Kaleb to DJ our wedding and reception. We couldn't imagine a more seamless process. From the beginning, Kaleb was very communicative, very open to any ideas we had, and really enjoyable and fun to work with. He let us give him a solidified list of songs along with our full wedding vibe (funky/disco). Kaleb understood the assignment. He played all of the songs we really wanted to hear while also finding some other songs that fit our vibes to a T....also made sure he didn't play songs we didn't want to hear. We asked him if he could give our wedding guests certain queue's and guide the wedding on the mic...the day before, we even asked him to say a few things word for word on the microphone. He did just that and absolutely killed it. Dancing DJ productions was a very communicative, organized, and professional company throughout...plus had a very competitive price. Thanks so much for making our big day so special and groovy!

DJ Conner was absolutely amazing and my husband and I couldn't be happier with the dancing music and all the music played throughout the evening. He listened to our music needs, which were not the clearest at times, but nonetheless he came up with a great playlist that fit the diverse age range and what we were envisioning. It seemed that all the guests were dancing on the dance floor at some point in the evening. Just recently a guest from the wedding reached out commenting how Conner was the best wedding DJ they have ever heard. Conner brings a cool, sophisticated vibe that is truly great for all age demographics. Additionally, Conner was super professional, on time, and had state of the art sound equipment. He also did an incredible job micing the night and keeping the pace. The fact that I didn't want the night to end speaks volumes to how much I enjoyed our wedding and a big part of that was the music. Hiring the right DJ is one of the best wedding decisions we made and was also way more cost effective than a live band. To wrap this up, we are so thankful Conner decided to take his DJ talents to the wedding industry. I am sure his business will take off. Thank you Conner, we will always remember how you made our night so special and my brother's EPIC speech :)

These girls are so dang talented!!! Heather was in charge of hair for my wedding and Cynthia applied our makeup. Everyone looked absolutely stunning once they were done with us and it all lasted for the entire night. They even got complimented by the photographer for being efficient and finishing on time. I received a hair and makeup trial prior to the wedding, and they really listened to my vision and took their time getting it perfect for the big day. On the day of, they managed to do 5 bridesmaids, myself, and my mom’s hair & makeup in the time provided with ease. Heather used her skills and creativity and was able to create different hairstyles on the spot for each of the girls and even helped with makeup. Cynthia worked her magic and applied everyone’s makeup to accentuate our features while still appearing more natural.

From our first conversation, Kolibri Flower Lab made planning our wedding flowers stress-free and straightforward. The owner was professional, kind, and responded to every question quickly, which meant so much during wedding planning. 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. I smelled like a field of flowers all day, and the arrangement truly looked like art. The pricing was reasonable too, which was a huge relief while juggling all the wedding costs.

I found Pixel Perfect Photo Booth Co at the Bridal Bazaar in San Diego & honestly it was one of the best vendor decisions I made for my wedding. If you're looking for a wedding photo booth company in San Diego, hire Pixel Perfect! What really drew me to them over other companies was their pricing, the image quality of their photos, & the fact that they included both physical prints & digital files AND put together a physical album on the spot during our reception. I got to go home the night of my wedding with a finished album in-hand! My husband and I loved sitting down and going through it together the next day. That alone made it so worth it. They offer a good variety of service tiers so there really is something for every budget. The package I chose was called "The Chic Package with The Tuxedo Booth". All of my communication with them was done through email & I was really impressed with how quickly they responded every single time. After the wedding they also sent over the digital files fast which my guests & I appreciated greatly! I've already recommended Pixel Perfect Photo Booth Co to so many of my friends who are planning their weddings & i'd 100% hire them again in a heartbeat!

I’ve been happily married for almost 27 years. I have three awesome sons. My parakeets Kiwi and Sparky are very social, meaning very loud! 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. I love hats and want to wear them everyday (over 20 hats in my collection). I’ve been shooting beautiful weddings for almost 10 years. I secretly cry at every wedding.

Awarded Best of Zola
I've never been so excited to review somebody in my entire life!!! We were so lucky to have Irina as our photographer. I cannot say enough how important it is that your photographer on your wedding day is just as wonderful as a person as she is a professional at what she does. A good photographer makes you feel comfortable and effortless behind the camera. Posing parents, siblings, wedding parties, flower girls, ring bearers, and the bride and groom coming together perfectly in a crazy short amount of time? You feel like it’s IMPOSSIBLE. It’s not! I’ve heard that weddings are always not on time. The truth is it’s more worth. The rings may be forgotten, the very important guest is being extremely late, and a lot of other reasons. Irina was super patient, she captured each and every photo I wanted without me even having to make sure that she did it. Her creativity, eye for perfection, and professionalism are unbelievable. The wedding day does by so fast, and it's important to have all the moments captured. My now husband and I could not have chosen a better photographer. Everyone at the wedding was talking about how great our photographer was. Irina introduced herself to every guest and family member at the wedding and made sure she got every guests’ picture which we are so grateful! We had so many out of state guests and wanted to remember every moment with them on our best day. If you are looking for pricing that makes sense, photographer who cares about the quality, your happiness on your wedding day, and feeling confident throughout that entire day and every time you look at pictures afterwards, then look no further!

Thanks for visiting Breezy Day, we are so happy you are here! We are a sister team in San Diego, committed to helping you make your engagement & wedding day a breeze! WE CANNOT WAIT TO GET TO KNOW YOU!

We got married last weekend and Courtney, the founder of Breezy Day, was our coordinator. I truly cannot overstate how incredible she was to work with - she made ALL the difference in the day and how smooth it yet. We kept a moderate budget for a traditional wedding and did a lot of it with the help of friends and family, and I truly think that the outcome being SO good was partly because of Courtney. She was so well worth adding that line item in our budget. Her knowledge, sunny and cheerful attitude, efficiency, and thorough attentiveness made it so we could actually enjoy our wedding, instead of worrying about anything else or any little issues. Having a professional makes all the difference. She just made it all happen. If you want to relax on your wedding...she's your gal! My husband was very hesitant and resistant to having a coordinator and his view on it has completely shifted because of how great she was. She also took some fun photos for us that turned out so cute, and we have those in addition to our photographer and videographer. And, if you're looking into the Thursday Club in Point Loma, she is the preferred coordinator for a reason!! She really is the best! BOOK HER!

The Julep Venue was a wonderful place to host our wedding. The communication with the venue manager was easygoing and stress-free throughout the planning process. They always responded to our questions quickly and provided helpful information about the venue's layout, amenities, and policies. The venue itself offered a simple, spacious blank canvas for us to decorate however we envisioned for our big day. With its high ceilings, large windows, and neutral walls, it served as an airy backdrop that allowed our floral arrangements and decor to really shine. For couples wanting an unfussy venue that allows you to put your personal stamp on the event, the Julep is a great value - their reasonable rates mean more money for gorgeous flowers or spectacular lighting.

Throughout our two-year engagement, Slay Events guided us seamlessly through the entire destination wedding planning process. Lily was incredibly attentive, organized, and genuinely invested in bringing our vision to life. Because of her, our wedding day unfolded flawlessly. It was smooth, stress-free, and absolutely perfect. Watching her in her element was inspiring, and our guests could not stop raving about how amazing she was. We truly could not have done this without her. For any couple planning a wedding, we wholeheartedly and confidently recommend Slay Events for all of your coordination needs. Lily is a dream!

Sound Prodigy and DJ Pat was awesome to work. The app he had us use to add music to so he could get a feel for what we like was very easy to use. He’s clearly very experienced and knew how to get the crowd energized and keep the dance floor packed all night. Their intuitive sense of the vibe and flow of the evening was spot on, and they kept the music going seamlessly through all the key moments. We couldn't have asked for a better DJ to make our wedding celebration so memorable. We also booked a photo bus through him and I highly recommend that. Our guests had a great time taking pictures and you get both physical and digital copies and we had so much fun looking through everyone’s photos after the wedding. Highly recommend!

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.

I've been djing since I was 15 years old. I had a fascination for parties and events at an early age. I tagged along with my brother who dj'd at house parties back in the early 80's. I was hooked after seeing how much joy the music brought out in the crowd. I started buying my own 12" records, and it evolved into doing my own gigs: house parties, jr. high & high school dances, colleges, raves, underground parties, night clubs, weddings, corporate events, and so on. I started my DJ business in 1987, and have been honing my craft now for 3 decades. Thirty plus years later, I continue to love what I do. Now let's get the party started.

I'll be honest: I almost didn't write this review because I figured my wife would handle it. But Angela deserves to hear from the groom too. Wedding planning is one of those processes where you don't fully appreciate what your planner is doing until something goes wrong... and with Angela, nothing did. At least not that we knew about. That's the point. From our first interactions, it was clear Angela was more than just organized. Any planner can be "organized." Angela was *meticulous.* The timeline she built for our wedding was one of the most impressive planning documents I've ever seen: detailed, comprehensive, and thorough enough to even include outstanding balances and due dates for every vendor. She knew every contract detail better than we did. Maybe even better than the vendors who wrote the contracts! Looking at it, I remember thinking: "ohhh, this is why people hire planners." Angela didn’t just execute. She had taste and judgment. When our programs didn't fit the napkins as planned, she didn't just solve the problem. She came up with a solution that looked better than the original. When the rental company showed up with one too few tables, she rearranged things so seamlessly that no one noticed. As the groom, I can tell you: I felt completely taken care of. I could exhale and enjoy my day. I cannot overstate how *valuable* that was. Angela has this rare ability to run everything on a precise schedule while improvising masterfully when the moment calls for it. Equal parts conductor and jazz musician. If something went wrong at our wedding, I still don't know about it. That's Angela. Hire her before someone else does.
