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.

Stephanie kept me on track, she helped me make sure things were done when they were supposed to! I honestly could not have had such a great wedding without her! I provided her with my vision and gave her creative license to make it happen and she delivered! The last month of wedding planning life threw us some curve balls and Stephanie was so kind to us during that challenging time. If you are not sure whether or not you need a wedding planner, you do. Let me tell you not having to worry about set up, clean up, timelines and who knows what else made my day a breeze as a bride. Also Bonus! I was able to use some of her items-I didn’t have to buy them!!

Hi!!!! I am Nikki and it is my joy to provide you with beautiful images of your day. Seeing you relaxed, laughing and feeling beautiful is what fills my personal love tank.

No matter what your wedding day looks like I am here to capture all of the sweetness, tears and laughter of the day. The wedding day itself is a bleep in the lifetime of memories you will make with your partner but it is my joy to make sure you remember each and every magical moment!

Nikki and Taylor were absolutely AMAZING!! Their energy is fantastic and they are very professional. We did both our engagement and wedding photos with them and they turned out incredible! I could not recommend them more! Nikki was willing to have a Plan A, B and C in place depending on if a family member was going to be able to make an appearance-it meant so much that we had plans in place depending on if the family member could make it.

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!

CONNER UNDERSTOOD THE ASSIGNMENT!! My husband and I gave him a few "must have" songs and explained the vibe/type of music we like- leaving him pretty much in charge of the playlist. HE NAILED IT. He played banger after banger making it impossible for myself and guests to leave the dance floor. He even included clips from some of the speeches that were given earlier in the evening. INCREDIBLE! I've had several people since, ask for his contact information to play future events! If you're looking for someone to keep the dance party flowing- call Conner! 5 STARS ALL THE WAY!

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!

I used both the wedding coordination and floral services from Breezy Day and both services went above and beyond, making our wedding day perfect. Courtney was our wedding coordinator and she made the process so much easier. I was so stressed about the wedding planning process until I met Courtney, I wonder if we would have even had a wedding if I didn’t meet her to be honest! From the initial phone call, she explained the wedding planning process and reassured me that we could have a great wedding within our limited budget. She had a list of vendors she recommended which I picked all of my vendors from and it made the process of selecting vendors so much easier. Courtney was always able to help answer my questions throughout the whole year of planning and always responded in a timely manner. Then, on the day of the wedding, Courtney made the entire day so smooth and it went just as planned. I cannot recommend Courtney and the wedding day of coordinator services more. I don’t know what I would have done without her! The florals from Breezy Day Weddings were also incredible. They were more beautiful in person then I even expected. I chose the a la carte options from the Shoppe and the florals were so beautiful. Heather was great and very responsive when I asked questions about the process. The florals were seamlessly delivered to the venue on the day of the wedding and Courtney set the centerpieces on the table for me and placed the florals on the cake and it was so stunning. The service from both the day of coordination services and the florals were 10 out of 10! I cannot recommend them enough. They were affordable, professional, efficient, friendly, reassuring, and just amazing all around. If you’re getting married, you need to hire them for your wedding! Thank you again, Courtney and Heather!

I can't put into words how happy we are with Dakotah and the work he did on our wedding. Due to unforeseen circumstances, our original videographer fell through. We found Dakotah and loved everything we saw in his portfolio. We reached out and we were immediately struck by his professionalism. We knew we had found our guy. On the day of the wedding, he arrived on time and immediately began getting B-roll of the venue. He did work with my groomsmen and I as well as my wife and her bridesmaids. We also hardly even noticed him during the ceremony. The finished product was stunning. In beautiful cinematic fashion, he perfectly captured the emotion and love we felt. We honestly can't thank Dakotah enough. If you are looking for a videographer for your special day, look no further.

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.

Hi! My name is Ayleen and I have been a makeup artist for 5 years. In my few years of experience I have been able to learn a lot from working in photoshoots, along with other artists and at countless weddings. From my first bridal makeup I’ve done on a close friend, I knew that’s what I wanted to do as my job. It took a few years to build my career and I am so glad I chased after my dream of becoming a bridal makeup artist. My favorite part of what I do is being able to be a part of such a special day in your life and there’s nothing that makes me happier than making girls feel their best.

Awarded Best of Zola
As a makeup lover, I was really picky about who was going to do my glam for my special day. Ayleen uses quality products, is super patient and precise, and was very collaborative as I described what I wanted. The final look was a soft brown halo eye with hints on pink and sparkle with a natural/dewy finish and just enough contour. She went above and beyond and even did my neckline and shoulders to accommodate my strapless dress I LOVED it! I was bathed in setting spray so the look was sealed in and lasted all day, even through dancing and rain. Ayleen also recommended someone to do hair for me, which was perfect all around! If you’re looking for somebody with a broad range of skills, an experienced network, and works quickly and efficiently, look no further!

Where do I even begin? Wedgewood Weddings at the Fallbrook Estate far exceeded all our expectations! Our planners, Angela and Lauren, were absolutely amazing. They stayed on top of every request and were quick to answer all our questions throughout the entire planning and execution process. They made everything run so smoothly, both leading up to the big day and on the day itself, which helped take a huge weight off our shoulders. I’m incredibly grateful to the entire staff for putting together the most perfect wedding day. Everything was a dream come true from the ceremony to the DJ, food, and decorations. I truly couldn’t recommend a more beautiful venue or a more dedicated team to help celebrate such a special moment! -Alexis & Roman

Michael did a wonderful job on videography for our wedding. He was helpful in the planning process, and clearly understood our vision. He was also very accommodating and amazing to work with on the wedding day itself! He had a super quick turnaround of over wedding video, and the product was absolutely beautiful! We look forward to watching it many times over the years to relive our special day, and to see the true joy he was able to capture.

We booked Katherine to shoot our wedding day, which also came with an engagement shoot session, and we cannot recommend her enough! Within the first few minutes of our engagement session we immediately could tell we were in good hands and that our pictures would be amazing. Seeing how incredible our engagement shoot turned out only made us more excited for our wedding day. Katherine was so amazing to work with and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. She was professional and punctual and even gave us great advice when discussing other areas of our wedding! Our family and friends could not stop complimenting her direction and vision the day of the wedding and Katherine was so willing to look through some inspo photos I sent her prior to the day and looked for ways to recreate them at our venue. We were absolutely floored by her work when we received the photos back. The images are so crisp and the colors are gorgeous and she gave us so much variety! It is going to be so hard to decide which photos we want to hang on our walls!
