    Thank you so much, Laura. What a magical day it was. I seriously can not imagine our wedding day without Laura. Thanks to my amazing photographer I was connected with Laura. I had been conflicted on adding a wedding coordinator and I can honestly say it was the best decision ever. The way Laura pulled everything together throughout the whole process and the day of was incredible to watch. In addition to the coordination package I added a design package so Laura could help me nail down the look I was going for. The room looked insanely gorgeous and I appreciate Laura's help in pulling this vision together. Walking into that stunning room was one of my favorite memories of the day. My hair girl said she had never seen such a detailed timeline accounting for every little things and that it seemed like my planner was really "on it" which she said is not typical of ones she has had experience with. It was really awesome to hear so much positive feedback about Laura from many of the other vendors. I just assumed this is how wedding planners were but now I understand how much Laura really went above and beyond leading up to and during our wedding day. Laura handled absolutely everything that came up and made sure that the only thing we did was have a great time. She was constantly around and checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. I was literally so impressed watching her move around the venue so calmly with everything under control. We loved that we had dinner and drinks served to us and that little touch was awesome to make sure we ate some of the yummy food. I couldn't recommended Back Patio Event Design more and am sad for anyone who doesn't get this kind of services and experience on their wedding day!! We love you Laura!!!

    Laura + Kayla put together a polaroid station at our wedding, and of course, snapped a few behind-the-scenes photos!

I didn't want your average bouquets and asked to add in things you normally wouldn't see in a bridal bouquet. She completely understood my vision and had really great ideas to add. She was excited about creating the arrangements and made me feel completely confident that I was going to get what I wanted. The morning of the wedding when the flowers were delivered I was completely blown away at how perfect they turned out. They were all even more beautiful than I could have imagined and were so unique. They were definitely one of my favorite things about that day! Sarah and her mom Linda were so helpful and accommodating. They were attentive to my price range and were helpful in getting me what I wanted at a price that I needed :) I had some last minute changes that I called about and they were more than happy to help. They are both so sweet and were genuinely happy and excited for me. I do not have enough good things to say about L&S, from their service to their beautiful flowers, they are amazing!...seriously, use them!

I'm so happy to see Sarah open a brick and mortar location. She's done the design for numerous events and campaigns at my company- all wonderful. She has the great ability to illustrate your vision, be it whimsical or professionally clean and crisp. Not to mention, she's a pleasure to work with. This ability with the combination of her mother's decades of event planning for the Coronado Hyatt is truly inspired!

    We used I-Do... for both day-of coordination and florals for our wedding at Scripps Seaside Forum,…read moreand it was one of the best decisions we made! Elena and her team were absolutely phenomenal and made our wedding day so much more enjoyable and stress-free. Day-of Coordination: Elena stood out not only on the wedding day but also in the months leading up to it. She was incredibly helpful during the planning process--offering thoughtful insight into creating a seamless timeline and even helping with ideas for decor and place settings tailored to our outdoor, beachy (and occasionally windy!) wedding. She thought of every detail, from preparing us in advance to get those dreamy photos (like the first kiss and cake cutting) to ensuring everything ran on schedule without a hitch. On the day, Elena was a true lifesaver. From the rehearsal to the ceremony and reception, I never once had to worry about where I needed to be or what was next. She kept everything moving smoothly, pointing me in the right direction while allowing me to fully enjoy the company of our guests and the magic of the day. And she always made sure we were taken care of (never without a drink in hand!). Her leadership and attention to detail made it all so effortless for us. Florals: Melissa tackled all of our floral arrangements, and I couldn't have been happier with how they turned out! Working within my limited budget, she brought my vision to life with stunning florals that perfectly matched our style and the seaside setting. Melissa truly understood the look I was going for, and her creativity and expertise made every arrangement stand out beautifully. She even gave me a calming pep talk before I walked down the aisle, which was such a thoughtful touch during a nerve-wracking moment. If you are considering a wedding at Scripps Seaside Forum (or anywhere else), I cannot recommend I-Do highly enough. Elena is an incredible coordinator who will make your wedding day run flawlessly, and Melissa will make your vision a reality. Thank you, Elena and Melissa, for helping make our wedding day unforgettable!

I booked her early and we initially just did a couple meetings to discuss our vision and needs regarding coordination, vendor contracts and florals since we did not need a full-planning service, only partial. She was always upfront and gave me honest opinions especially when it came to where to splurge and save, and what could look good and what wouldn't. The last 2 months is where she really shined, helping us follow up with vendors on details, setting deadlines for me to book rentals, reviewing contracts and constantly doing sanity checks when I needed it. The day of, she came extremely prepared, everything flowed smoothly (except some technical issues on part of the venue) and she was great at going with the flow and just letting the vibe and natural mood of the day go, and fixing whatever problems I threw at her. We also had her as our florist and she truly out did herself- her prices were incredibly reasonable and she handled everything like a champ when her assistant got sick the day of the reception. She also took my back and forth floral design suggestions and changes very well, as I am quite particular on details in some areas and deferred to her expertise in others. Honestly could not have done it without her and she was without a doubt my #1 worth it vendor! Would absolutely hire her for all your wedding planning and floral needs.

She has earned every bit of her "F" rating through the BBB. My wife was referred by an acquaintance who unfortunately had not finished her business at the time and ended up getting screwed too. Roxanne was given our credit card # to make a deposit of $500 towards our $666 quote that we authorized through email. A couple weeks later we had an unauthorized charge of almost $500 and had to contact her to figure out what it was. She stated that it was for the remaining balance of our bill and a $300 deposit that would be returned. We were uneasy but it was too late to find another linen rental for our wedding. My wife asked twice for a contract that was never delivered to her. On our wedding day the linens we received were not good quality, had tears, weren't how they were described, and the colors of our yellow napkins came in about 3 different shades. We survived and had a beautiful day despite this disappointment. I would have given 3 stars had the story stopped here and we got our deposit back. My wife and I were the last ones to leave our venue and we know all linens were collected and put in the return bags. Our close friend dropped off the linens to Roxanne's garage that was unorganized, chaotic, and our return was dumped into a bin with many others returns. Hmmm??? After we got back from our honeymoon we noticed another charge to our card for $415 but we never had any communication from Roxanne about additional charges. So we contacted her and she claimed we lost numerous pieces, stained the napkins with lipstick and wine (isn't that what napkins are for?) and burned some items for an additional damage total of $715. I'm not saying some of this may not be true and we probably would have let her have our security deposit just to be done with her. But she was charging us more than double our original quote! My wife asked her to meet in the middle somewhere to settle but she wouldn't budge. We just didn't trust her anymore so we fought it through our credit card company and won our deposit and damage charges back. Oh it doesn't stop here!!! I found out we won our dispute because I saw a charge on my card for $715 from ALL SAN DIEGO PARTY LINENS. I contacted my CC company and they notified me it was a new charge and the dispute was resolved in our favor. SHE CHARGED OUR CARD AGAIN after she lost just because she had our #. Not only is she trying to steal from us but she is obviously challenged in the smarts department! Really?!? She made 3 unauthorized charges without ever contacting us. Please friends don't do business with her and save yourself the headache. I had to cancel my card so she can''t go on a shopping spree and I'm going to file a report with the PD for attempted theft. She doesn't deserve to be in business!

Glad all she can do is flag reviews on yelp. All of 1 star reviews show that I'm not the only one with such horrible service. She replied 8 months after my review thinking I would not remember everything that happened. We called Roxanne the morning of setting up the wedding. These "extra linens" were NOT RECEIVED. How do we return linens that we never received? We called her multiple as soon as we started setting up, not days after. She was more than welcome to come by and count them herself, but she was too busy hanging up on us when we tried calling or not answering at all. I recommended this company twice because I give people a chance to do better business. First time around, there was only an issue of a run around. Second time around was worse and cost us money. She thanks me for referring her twice and laughs it off. Her customer service at its best. I will let the other 1 star reviews help speak for this company's reputation as well as the F on BBB..

Jill handled my wedding and a good portion of the design, while Lindsey (who has since left Coastyle to spread her wings) was my amazing coordinator. I went with just the "month of" coordination after I had gotten the ball rolling on my own on all of my big decisions - venue, caterer, photographer. This was a good fit for me because I'm great at starting things, but terrible at finishing them, so the girls at Coastyle were LIFESAVERS!! I would absolutely recommend their services to anyone who needs a couple extra helping hands in their wedding planning. Hiring a coordinator was the best thing I did.

Everyone one knew what they were supposed to be doing and where to be, which led the event to be produced flawlessly. We also had her and Jillian design our wedding theme/decorations. Jillian is so creative and can make just about anything you need! They helped us pull off an elegant vintage sports themed wedding...I know sounds out there, but it was amazing and totally us. If you are getting married in San Diego you need Coastyle Events to coordinate and produce your magical day!

From start to finish, everything was handled with such care, professionalism, and attention to detail--it made our day feel effortless and unforgettable. A huge thank you to Will for his clear, thoughtful communication from the very beginning. He took the time to walk us through every detail, answer all of our questions, and make us feel completely confident in the process. Petr was also incredibly helpful throughout the planning process--so kind, enthusiastic, and genuinely a joy to work with. We especially loved getting to meet both him and Will in person at their incredible food tasting, which made us even more excited (and confident!) about our choices. The food was truly out of this world and deserves a special shoutout. During cocktail hour, guests raved about the hummus and pita, bacon-wrapped dates, arancini balls, and mini beef Wellingtons--each bite was flavorful and perfectly prepared. For dinner, we chose a dual entrée of salmon and pork served with seasonal vegetables and truffle mashed potatoes, and it exceeded every expectation. Multiple guests told us it was some of the best salmon they've ever had. The vegetarian curry cauliflower steak was also absolutely delicious and such a standout dish. We heard over and over again that this was the best wedding food our guests had ever experienced--and as the bride and groom, we completely agree! All of their partnered vendors were excellent and we feel so lucky to have been connected with all of them through Abbey. Mishele's floral arrangements were nothing short of stunning--every piece was beautifully designed and elevated the entire atmosphere of our event. We received so many compliments on the flowers! Renato and everyone at SugarBear Sweet Provisions absolutely blew us away with the cake and cupcakes--they were not only gorgeous but also incredibly delicious. Our guests are still talking about them! Tareq was a joy to work with, and he even brought out his drone to use to capture footage of our special day! We cannot wait to see his wedding video, he is so talented. DJ Brain was incredible!!! His communication was excellent, and he brought so much positive energy to our event, set up our mic stands seamlessly, and got everyone onto the dance floor! My mom said she looked around at one point, and didn't see a single person of the 114 guests sitting down at the tables during the reception. Chuck was truly a standout throughout the entire day. His coordination was flawless, ensuring everything ran seamlessly behind the scenes. We had so many small décor items, and he set up every single detail perfectly--it honestly exceeded anything we could have imagined. At one point, he even found double-sided sticky tape to make sure our candles stood up straight on every table. He went above and beyond in every way--bringing us plates of appetizers during cocktail hour and even surprising us with passionfruit mojitos throughout the night without us having to ask. That level of attentiveness meant so much to us. And finally, the Abbey service staff were exceptional--professional, attentive, and incredibly kind. They made sure our guests were well taken care of and contributed so much to the overall experience. We are beyond grateful to this entire team for making our event so special. Every detail was thoughtfully executed, and we felt completely taken care of the entire time. If you are getting married or planning an event in San Diego, do yourself a favor and book this team--you will not find a more talented, organized, and genuinely caring group of people. They exceeded every expectation and then some. Highly, highly recommend!

From the start Will, who signed us up, was most helpful and really knew his information. We clicked instantly and it was such a pleasure to talk with him and meet him in person.

After meeting Will we really had a great feeling and signed up within that week. The food was incredible at the tasting, and it was hard choosing which entrée and hours d'oeuvres to choose from since everything was so good. Chuck, our wedding coordinator, was beyond great and so helpful. He was such an asset to have on our side and really made the day go smooth. He was also so friendly and great to work with. We really felt like we made friends with our Abbey team There were absolutely no hiccups whatsoever and I was so calm the whole day. David, our catering lead, was another amazing team member. He was right there to offer us food first and make sure we had enough of our share. The rest of the catering team always made us a priority too and I was very hungry after the ceremony in between pictures so that was so great. We ordered the following for tray passed hors d'oeuvres: petite beef wellington, wild mushroom arancini, bruschetta, and bacon wrapped stuffed dates. We opted for the dual entrée of the boneless short ribs, and the panko-herb crusted chicken with vegetables and the truffle smashed potatoes. All were so good and I wish I could eat them all again Our guests could not stop raving about the food. They even made dietary restriction meals for several of our guests, and they said it was one of the best vegan/vegetarian meals they have ever had. We really were impressed with the food and so glad we went with Abbey as that was important for us to have really good tasting food. We opted for the whole package with their vendors for flowers, DJ, photographer, and cake. Best decision ever!!! We had Emerald and Ivy for the florist and my goodness Mishele, and the Abbey team put together exactly what I pictured in my mind! Such beautiful flowers and we rented bud vases and candles from her. DJ Abel from the Wedding Entertainment Collective was beyond amazing! He played our songs and knew the vibes we were going for. The dance floor was a hit, and our guests were dancing the whole night. Everyone was telling us the DJ was so good! Misha, our photographer, was amazing and made us feel so comfortable. The pictures are so beautiful! The cake and mini cupcakes from Sugar Bears Sweet Provisions were out of this world! I'm so glad we saved our wedding cake because we ate it the next day. Our guests loved the mini cupcakes too and we even had enough to give out at treats and take home. We really are so grateful we decided to go with Abbey catering. They really went above and beyond. The whole team, Will, Chuck, David, and the caterers were 10 out of 10 Thank you so much and to the Abbey vendors for making our day even more special!
