Working with Nicole and the team at Mostest was an absolute pleasure. From the moment we first reached out, Nicole was communicative, prompt, and incredibly kind in her responses to all of our questions. Her expertise and easygoing, calm demeanor really put our Type A brains at ease throughout the planning process. Nicole was great at handling the day-before and day-of coordination between our bridal party, vendors, and the venue, ensuring everything ran smoothly. She even joined us on a few vendor calls, put together a realistic and well-organized timeline that we were able to stick to, and ran our rehearsal seamlessly.

Where do I start with the ladies at Love & Laughter Weddings?! From the very beginning, they made us feel heard and cared for, like we were their only clients. They understood our vision and made it even better with their creative ideas and thoughtful touches. The entire planning process was SO smooth because they were always one step ahead! On the big day, they handled everything so seamlessly that all we had to do was soak it all in and enjoy the moment, which is really what we wanted at the end of the day. It was so reassuring knowing they had everything under control! Peace of mind is priceless!

We are so grateful to Stacy and her team for all of their help. They are professional, organized, and so fun to be around. Our ceremony and reception went off without a hitch and I didn’t have a worry in the world. She also kept my dress FRESH! I didn’t think Wedding Day Styling was a thing but it is! Not only did she steam my dress to absolute perfection, helped me put it on to where it fit like a glove (after I faked getting ready photos with my mom lol), also bustled it in less than a minute, fluffed it out for photos, repackaged it at the end of the night, and overall made me feel like a princess living out her dream. My wedding was perfect and that was thanks to everything Stacy did!

During college I got the chance to do a semester abroad in San Diego, and met this really special, handsome, American guy... You see it coming? YES!

We don’t even know where to begin because words truly can’t capture how incredible Clémence and The Perfect Pair Wedding were. From the very first meeting to the final moments of our wedding day, Clémence was so much more than just a wedding planner - she was our guide, our support system, and our biggest cheerleader. Her passion for what she does is so evident. You can feel the love and care she pours into every single detail. But what truly stood out was how much she cared for us. Clémence was there not just to plan the wedding, but to make sure my husband and I felt supported, calm, and cared for every step of the way. She wasn’t just a planner; she was a steady, reassuring presence, offering both her expertise and her emotional support, problem solving skills when we needed it most. Her eye for detail is unmatched. She coordinated every element with such thoughtfulness and precision that everything came together flawlessly. She brought out the culture and traditions so well! And it wasn’t just us who noticed - our friends, family, and loved ones are still talking about how beautiful the wedding was and how amazing The Perfect Pair Wedding team was. We’ve been receiving so many texts and calls from guests, all raving about how stunning the day was, thanks to Clémence and her team in coordinating so well. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your wedding with as much love, effort and care as if it were her own, Clémence is the one.

My husband and I want to thank Stephany and her assistant Annie for all the attention given to us on our magical day. Our favorite part of working with Stephany was that she is extremely friendly and funny. Which honestly made us feel comfortable from the day we met, to every meeting that we had before the wedding day. We would recommend Stephany and Annie to family and friends. They are professional, friendly, and most important patient. Not once did we sense they felt overwhelmed or stressed about anything. Which definitely gave us peace of mind knowing everything was under control by them both. We are also thankful that Stephany and Annie went above and beyond for our magical day. We only hired a photographer, but without us asking Stephany and Annie ensured to capture many special moments during the event. Such as us walking down the aisle, dancing with our moms, and getting funky on the dance floor.

** Please inquire directly with us (we are not able to respond here since it charges us). You can search us on your preferred search engine or social media. Bryce Gaston Events brings an unparalleled standard of detail to high-end weddings in Southern California. We'll plan your wedding seamlessly by prioritizing even the smallest details and designing a day that doesn't just look stunning but creates memories that last a lifetime. We service San Diego, Santa Barbara, Palm Springs, Temecula, Santa Ynez, Los Angeles, Orange County, and beyond.

I can say with full confidence that our wedding would not have been possible without Bryce Gaston Events. From the beginning, Bryce took my vision and brought it to life in a way that exceeded our expectations and what we even thought was possible. Bryce not only ensured every detail was perfect but also advocated for us when it came to dealing with a VERY challenging venue that fought us on just about everything. Her extensive relationships with vendors gave us access to the best options, and she skillfully negotiated on our behalf, always keeping our best interests at heart. Even when my hair and makeup canceled 9 days before the wedding, she was able to help me secure the best artist who was better than who I'd originally chosen, myself. When the venue’s freight elevator broke on the day of the event, Bryce already had a Plan B in place, ensuring everything went off without a hitch. Thanks to her preparation and quick thinking, the day was flawless and our guests are still talking about our wedding! She was organized in the way she presented how everything would look day of, and always had a creative solution. Everything felt custom and tailored and was true to who we are. Her experience is truly unmatched. Truly every detail and minute of the day was accounted for with aisle planner and a schedule. If you want a planner who truly cares, has impeccable taste, is patient, and goes above and beyond to ensure your day is perfect, Bryce is the one. She was always accessible and had a creative solution for any issue that arose. I can't say enough about Bryce, but I know that we genuinely couldn’t have done this without her. I learned so much from working with her and I am forever grateful for how she brought my dream vision to life.

Kate was beyond what we wanted in a wedding partner; she was everything we needed and more! As a Type A who has trouble relying on people and panics over the small things, Kate was a source of peace and “Don’t worry, we got this!” energy that was much needed! She is the most patient person we’ve ever met. So many things didn’t go as planned on my end, but Kate pulled through every change and last minute adjustment with easy flexibility and calming assurance. She made the space look beautiful, she made our guests feel welcome and excited to be there, and she made sure we ate! I cannot recommend her enough!!!!

I cannot say enough amazing things about Meagan! She was a complete dream to work with. From start to finish, she was the most thorough, detailed, and incredible wedding planner I could have ever asked for. She completely put my mind at ease throughout the entire process, always staying one step ahead with multiple solutions to any little hiccup that came up. Her positive outlook and resourcefulness made me feel confident that everything was in the best hands… and it truly was. Our rehearsal ran so smoothly under her direction… it felt effortless because she had every detail accounted for. On the wedding day, everything went flawlessly. If there were any issues, I’ll never know, because Meagan took care of absolutely everything behind the scenes. All I had to do was enjoy the best day of my life. My venue was at La Jolla Cove Rooftop, which is a “Wedgewood Weddings” venue. Had I relied only on Wedgewood, I would have been completely lost. If I didn’t have Meagan, my wedding would not have been as beautiful and smooth as it was. Meagan made my wedding dreams come true, and I cannot imagine the day without her. She is truly the most knowledgeable, resourceful, and professional planner I’ve ever encountered. If you’re looking for someone who will make your wedding stress free, seamless, and absolutely magical, look no further than Meagan. She is simply the best and I will continue to highly recommend her!

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.

Olivia is, without a doubt, one of the sweetest, most caring, and thoughtful people I’ve ever met. She was an absolute joy to work with from start to finish during our wedding planning process. I still remember our first phone call—it went nearly 30 minutes over because chatting with her was so easy and fun. From that moment, I knew she was the perfect match to be our planner. Olivia is incredibly detail-oriented and truly committed to making your day perfect. As a type-A person myself, I deeply appreciated her meticulous approach and her ability to stay on top of every little detail. My mom was especially impressed with Olivia from the moment they met at our venue tasting. Olivia managed all our vendors flawlessly and paid close attention to the small touches that made our day feel so personal and “us.” With my parents living across the country, it meant the world to them to be able to fully enjoy the weekend knowing Olivia had everything handled.

Zuzu Collective is a bespoke luxury wedding planner specializing in immersive, story-driven weddings in San Diego and throughout California + Worldwide. We craft personalized, extraordinary weddings that reflect your love story and create unforgettable experiences for you and your guests.

Zoe put in so much hard work leading up to the wedding and especially on the day of. She pulled off a huge afternoon tea wedding with grace, good cheer, and patience. Everything was just so beautiful, I didn’t want it to end! Every time I talk to my mama about what an incredible job she did she says Zoe never stopped working so quickly and efficiently the whole day!! From the moment I spoke with Zoe, I knew I wanted her to be the one to make my afternoon tea wedding reception come true! She is so kind and organized and quick to respond to questions. She made a timeline for the wedding and added teacups, teapots, and a cute cart to the timeline so it wasn't just text on white paper. She really is more of a months-before-coordinator instead of a day-of-coordinator. She responded to texts and emails quickly and helped me stay calm leading up to the wedding day. Zoe met me, my then future husband, my mama and dad, and our caterer at the bridge club about two weeks before the big day. She helped figure out where everything was going to go and had a contingency plan in case it rained (which it did) She timed out how long it would take for my parents to walk me down the aisle so we knew how long we could let the processional song play. On the big day, it was raining but that didn't spoil Zoe's mood or ability to put everything together in a timely manner. She worked alongside our tea service person to set 14 tables with different color tablecloths, mismatched teacups, saucers, bread plates, luncheon plates, 3-tiered stands, water glasses, coupe glasses, napkins, decorative books, table numbers, bud vases, and wedding favors for 52 people. She also set-up our welcome table with bread and butter, water dispensers, guest book, and library card catalog for the seating chart. In addition to all this, she made sure I had my bouquet and was ready to walk down the aisle on-time, played the 3 different songs we had for the ceremony, and wrangled the guests to be seated and placed our floral arrangements on either side of the alter. During the afternoon tea she poured water, Prosecco, and sparkling apple cider for everyone. She played our Spotify playlist from her phone and brought out the wedding cake for us to cut. Once the reception was over, she and our tea server packed up all of the items so our Taskrabbit person could take everything back to our condo. She did this so quickly and efficiently and told me and my husband we didn't need to help. I really don't think we could have pulled off such a huge event without her!! Oh! and she was so sweet during the getting ready portion of the day, she gave me a glass teapot ornament as a wedding day gift (((*warm fuzzies*)))

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!!

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.

I highly recommend them for their professionalism and their stunning product. I hope to work with them again on another event!

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!

Jenn does an amazing job! We did a wonderful wedding together and every detail was just like the bride & groom wanted. I was the DJ and she coordinated the ceremony reception. The ceremony was beautiful and the reception was so much fun. The special dances, speeches & events flowed nicely. Highly recommend.

An experience Event Planner, Daniel's goal was to offer Wedding and Event Planning services that are both affordable and high quality.

The special moments in our lives also tend to be the most creative moments. That is where our tagline comes in, "When Life Happens, Creative Happens!"

We had an absolutely phenomenal experience with Creative Happens. We worked with Dan from day one of our wedding planning, and he made things so smooth and easy. He kept all decisions moving, had absolutely amazing vendor contacts, and had really beautiful and fun ideas on decor that felt very us. He also did a really good job working within our budget. The day of was honestly the best day of our lives, and was 100% perfect (which is to say, we *know* there must have been some unexpected challenges crop up but the Creative Happens team handled everything so quickly and seamlessly that my husband I had no idea). We also felt that Dan just genuinely cared about us; he made sure to save us various desserts and remind us that we should take a break to eat or switch to a cold glass of champagne before toasts. It was like having another best man/maid of honor (which really let our wedding parties relax and enjoy the night). We HIGHLY recommend Creative Happens.

Welcome to The Dainty Daydream, where together we create beautifully styled gatherings from romantic elopements in the mountains to breathtaking ceremonies in National Parks or elegantly curated weddings closer to home. ​

Hiring Emily was the best decision we made. From our first call Emily brought a level of creativity and calmness that we didn’t even know we needed. Emily was there every step of the way helping explain every wild idea to our vendors that brought the magic to our wedding. From driving and picking up our flowers (4 hour round trip) on the day of our wedding to setting everything up and being a constant source of calm during the hectic day. She deeply cares about her clients and handled everything with grace and professionalism. She continued to check in with us to make sure we were present and soaking in the day. Our guests are still raving about how seamless and beautiful everything was. If you on the fence about hiring a planner - do it. If you are looking for the one to trust with you big day - stop looking. You’ve found them. Thank you Emily! We will be forever singing your praises.

I attended one of Myranda Wright’s weddings and it was by far one of the most well put together and beautifully coordinated weddings I have ever been to. Her eye for design, attention to detail, and sense of timing were truly incredible. Every element from the flowers to the venue was absolutely stunning. I was one of the bridesmaids and I have been to many weddings, but this one exceeded anything I could have imagined. Myranda is the nicest and most patient planner, and her professionalism shone through every moment with her headset and all. I truly hope she plans my wedding one day!
