Every detail was thoughtfully handled, and nothing was overlooked. The level of care and attention they brought to every aspect of the day was incredible. Even the smallest details that mattered deeply to us were executed flawlessly. Throughout the day, we felt completely taken care of. Their calm professionalism allowed us to be fully present and enjoy every moment with our family and friends. Rachel even made a mid-dinner stain on my dress disappear as if it had never happened. And while we know they can't technically control the weather, we're still convinced they found a way to turn an 85% chance of rain into the most beautiful sunny day imaginable. We are endlessly grateful for the care, creativity and heart they brought to our wedding. It was everything we dreamed of and more, and we couldn't have imagined a better team by our side. Some people are meant for days like this, and Molly and Rachel are two of them.

They were setting up for another wedding there and I loved every part of it and had to get their card. From the very beginning they made the entire planning process feel easy and organized. Their use of Aisle Planner was incredibly helpful. We loved that it allowed us to have multiple logins for family members and let us keep track of all contracts, timelines, and details in one place. Molly and Rachel were always quick to respond to any questions we had and they kept us on track every step of the way. I never felt like I had to check in or worry about what needed to be done because I knew they would let us know exactly when something needed attention. They know Scripps Seaside Forum so well and gave us the best vendor recommendations. We truly loved every single referral they provided. Even once peak wedding season began, we never felt overlooked. They continued to be responsive and attentive, even on weekends when they were busy working other weddings. Molly and Rachel are professional, organized, knowledgeable, and have such a great eye for design. On our wedding day when the weather unexpectedly changed, they made the transition to Plan B feel seamless. They gave me their honest opinion about what would make our guests most comfortable and create the best experience given the circumstances, which I appreciated so much. I truly could not recommend Molly and Rachel enough. They made the planning process so much easier and helped us feel completely taken care of from start to finish. My mom and I are counting down the days for my little sister to get engaged just so we can work with them again!!

I clicked with Heather from the very first call. She took the time to get to know us and our story,…read moreanswered all our questions and it felt like talking to a friend. We wanted a wedding that felt personal and intimate: with meaningful details and moments of connection that would outlast the weekend. Heather understood the vision perfectly. We never followed up with anyone else. The journey of planning was also so much fun. The whole team is so attentive, proactive, and collaborative, I never felt overwhelmed. They handled all the coordination, contracts and scheduling so I could focus on the fun parts :) They replied to every thought, idea and question in the essay length emails I sent! Heather thought of things we never would have, down to whether our chairs would actually be comfortable for a long night. I am still in awe of Heather's eye for detail and how creatively and beautifully she wove our story and the people who shaped it into the design: the puzzles and picnic baskets at our Haldi; the garden party of our dreams for the Welcome Dinner; the handcrafted canopy for our ceremony; my painted flowers in the invitations and reception decor - the details still make us smile. I spent my wedding weekend celebrating with the people I love and truly being in the moment. The team took care of everything, from making sure I had water throughout, gluing my broken earring back together, to straightening my veil before I walked down the aisle. I am so grateful for everything. Heather and team are more than just planners to us, they became family.

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Heather and the Amorology team! From day one, their…read moreattention to detail and creativity were next-level. They took our vision, elevated it, and brought it to life in ways we could have never imagined on our own. Throughout the entire planning process, they were thoughtful collaborators - always listening, guiding and finding fresh, beautiful ways to make the day feel uniquely "us." What impressed us even more is that this was a venue they had never worked at before, and they absolutely blew us away. You would've thought they'd been designing events there for years - they understood the space instantly and transformed it flawlessly! On the wedding day, they didn't miss a beat. Truly. Their team was on it from morning to night, managing every moving part seamlessly. We never had to worry about a thing and they handled it all with so much grace, calmness and professionalism that we were able to be fully present and just enjoy the day. We highly, highly recommend Amorology! Working with Heather and her team was one of the best decisions we made. Our day was a dream, and we owe so much of that to them!

What initially drew me to I Do Weddings... was her team's familiarity with San Diego wedding venues, and especially with our venue, the Scripps Seaside Forum. From our first consultation with Melissa, through every call and email, we immediately felt at ease knowing she was by our side. Melissa truly made the wedding planning process so much easier. She was incredibly responsive and always had an answer to my many questions in the months leading up to the wedding. I never felt like I was bothering her or asking too much, and knowing we had someone experienced and dependable to turn to made such a difference. On the wedding day, Melissa and her assistant coordinator, Elena, made sure everything went according to plan. My husband and I felt completely stress-free that morning because we knew Melissa and her team had everything under control. We were able to simply enjoy our day and be present in the moment, which was exactly what we wanted. I would HIGHLY recommend Melissa and her team to anyone planning a wedding. We are so grateful for everything they did to make our wedding day so seamless and special!

I've had the pleasure of working with Melissa from I Do Weddings and Events on several weddings,…read moreand every single time I find myself thinking, "This bride is so lucky to have Melissa!" She is incredibly professional, organized, kind, and truly one of the sweetest wedding planners I've ever worked with. She has such a calm, warm presence, which makes such a difference on a wedding day--not only for the couple and their families, but for all of us vendors working behind the scenes. Melissa works frequently at The Scripps Seaside Forum in La Jolla, and she knows this beautiful venue inside and out. Her experience there really shows in how smoothly everything comes together. I also have to mention her vendor recommendations. Everyone she brings onto her team is wonderful--professional, talented, and simply the best at what they do. As a wedding photographer, it is always such a pleasure to work alongside Melissa because I know the day will be beautifully organized and the couple will be very well taken care of. I highly recommend Melissa and I Do Weddings and Events to any couple looking for an experienced, caring, and genuinely wonderful wedding planner. She is an absolute gem!

She executed the whole three-day affair, from rehearsal to rehearsal dinner, the makeup and hair/get ready rooms, ceremony, reception, and post-wedding brunch. She gave us excellent vendor recommendations and was able to get us preferred pricing. Sara was also very good at guiding us through the process - neither my husband or I are familiar with the wedding industry and how things work, she was there every step of the way helping us out. I am not a very creative person (I'm an accountant for a living) and Sara was able to tell me what decorative elements would make an impact, where to save money and DIY, and what the current trends/traditions are in the wedding industry to incorporate into my wedding. I'd highly recommend her for any complex wedding and event planning needs. She killed it!

Clemence is AMAZING. As someone who is usually the most organized person in the room, the idea of…read morerelinquishing control of the most important day of my life was difficult. Until we met Clemence. When we started working with her for 'month-of' wedding planning, I was so reassured (more than I've ever been!) that everything would be taken care of and we were in good hands. She went above and beyond for us in many ways, but it's especially worth noting since we had a couple vendors (including the venue!) that were not the easiest to work with and lacked her fabulous communication skills. I would recommend The Perfect Pair & Clemence to absolutely anyone in San Diego looking for an amazing wedding planner at a competitive price. You will get everything you wanted and more!

Where do we even begin? Before hiring Clémence, we met over a video call, getting to know each…read moreother to make sure we worked well together. We think this is an essential step in choosing any wedding planner, since ideas need to be communicated in both directions. Being on the same page about the vision of your wedding is key. It did not take long at all for us to know that she was the absolute best choice for us. Clémence is incredibly friendly and holds herself to such a high standard, and that shows in the work she does. She has an entire process for planning that includes timelines of when things are to be done, vendors are to be booked, and more. Everything is laid out clearly, and she checks in regularly to make sure things are on track. These timelines start from several months before the wedding and go all the way down to the day itself. She makes it known that she wants your day to be exactly how you want it and works hard to achieve that. Whenever we had a new idea or a modification to an existing one, she was always open to hearing it and working to make it happen. We went with an Italian garden-style theme for our wedding, and Clémence executed that vision perfectly. We somehow seemed to be on the same wavelength about everything. Not only did she follow through on executing our ideas, but she also incorporated her own input that fit into the wedding and expanded on it perfectly. As first-time bride and groom, we struggled with knowing how to budget properly. Clémence helped us spend in places where it made the most sense for us and save on things we didn't need. Bit of a random anecdote, but we wanted to have pizza at the end of our afterparty. Our initial search was going to have us spending hundreds of dollars to have standard pizzas delivered to our venue. Clémence saved the day when she found an even closer shop that made heart-shaped pizzas for a fraction of the cost. As Clémence has been doing this for a while now, she's gained rapport with several vendors and was able to speak to the quality of their work and service. This took so much pressure off of us, since we didn't merely have to trust the sales pitch of whatever vendors we happened to find on our own. Once we had our vendors locked in, Clémence took care of managing timelines for each, such as when to meet with them, choosing items for the wedding, and payment schedules. Not only does she work her hardest when she's by your side, she also has your back when you don't even notice. Nearly a month after the wedding, we found out that our venue's staff was incredibly rude and unhelpful to our vendors. This forced everyone to work at 110% to compensate for the lack of assistance. However, the way Clémence handled this was with such grace and professionalism that we didn't notice, nor did any of our guests, that things weren't running smoothly. Her integrity is truly inspiring. As cheesy as it may sound, we've gained a genuine lifelong friend in Clémence. The influence and quality of her work extend far beyond wedding planning. If it wasn't clear already, we cannot recommend Clémence enough. Her work speaks for itself and was by far the best investment we made for our wedding.

The reception hall of my wedding allowed a 4 hour window the day prior to drop off items and begin setup and their delivery drivers worked with the schedule and was there right when the hall was opened for us to setup. I also only had a 30 minute window for the hall to be unlocked for me the morning after the event for the chairs to be picked up and their drivers worked with my schedule. I was considering renting a box truck to pick up the rentals to waive the delivery fee but after seeing how large the load was and how hard the two delivery drivers worked, the delivery fee was 100% worth it and their two drivers did a phenomenal job. They did not have all of the chairs we wanted in their inventory on my event day so they subleased the remainder from another rental company for a very reasonable fee. They took care of the sublease for the additional chairs behind the scenes and it was so smooth that I wouldn't of have known it was subleased. All of the chairs were a perfect match and made all the difference in the overall setup of our wedding.

THE BEST HIRE!!!! Christine and Lavish were recommended to…read moreme by a friend at work. She said her sister was a wedding planner and created beautiful weddings. She was not wrong! I am so impressed by Christine and her team. My husband and I were engaged for over a year and Gabriela took care of us in the beginning from getting a vision board together, a color palette selected, and an overall concept/theme put together. They recommended different vendors and were realist about setting a budget. I originally found their online aisle planner website difficult and hard to navigate at first and learned to really appreciate it down the road. It wasn't that it was hard to navigate more than I didn't take the time to explore all the different features. It was a life saver for me and later turned into my wedding bible because it housed all my vendor information, payment schedules, important dates, seating chart, checklists, and more. Fast forward to the month before the wedding. Christine was amazing and set up all our final vendor meetings, etc. she made sure all the vendors talked to each other and coordinated everything with the hotel. She took care of all the vendor logistics, COI, etc. Which at the time, I didn't realize was a lot. She was crucial in selecting our decor and creating the timeline. The day of the wedding comes and Christine was there bright and early setting everything up. We had an attendant, Tiffany, assigned to the bridesmaids, another one dedicated to the groomsmen, Christine setting up in the reception hall, and later, Diana, a runner and they all were amazing! They were there the entire time of us getting ready and making sure we could connect with Christine as she handled the vendors coming in. They made sure we were taken care of, checked in, and never left. Diana was also a life saver and had my shoes ready for me to change into after all the photos. I could go on for days and never capture how much Christine and her team truly helped us. They helped set up, tear down, managed my family and guests, managed all the vendors, and handled all the melt downs. They were the absolute best hire! I am truly impressed and am forever grateful to Christine and her team. I 100% recommend Lavish & Co. for any wedding. They were truly amazing and went above and beyond, exceeded all expectations. My husband and I are not the easiest people and I know that. But, Christine and her team were so gracious and accommodating throughout the whole process. I have no complaints. Thank you Lavish for making my wedding a beautiful dream come true!

We cannot say enough great things about the Lavish Wedding Team, and especially Gabriela! From the…read moremoment we met Gabriela, it was clear that she wasn't just a wedding planner--she was someone deeply invested in making our wedding day a reflection of us as a couple. She took the time during our very first meeting to ask about our personal story--how we met, how my husband proposed, and what made our relationship unique. This was something no other planner had done, and it immediately made us feel like we were in the hands of someone who truly cared. She has become more than just a wedding planner, and is now one of our friends. Our wedding was a beautiful blend of two distinct cultures, and Lavish went above and beyond to ensure that every detail honored both of our traditions in a way that felt seamless and cohesive. Gabriela found creative ways to incorporate elements of each culture into the decor, ceremony, and reception, making our celebration not just special, but incredibly personal. Her thoughtful approach to merging these cultural elements was absolutely perfect, and we were so grateful for the care she took to ensure everything felt authentic and meaningful. On top of all that, the Lavish team was incredibly attentive to every last detail. There were a few last-minute challenges on the day of the wedding, and they handled them with such grace and professionalism that we didn't have to worry about a thing. If you're looking for a wedding planning team who will go above and beyond to make your day as special as it can be, look no further than Lavish.
