We loved having Valerie as our wedding planner! We planned our out-of-town wedding in 6 weeks so we…read moreknew we needed a pro to help us. Wedding planning isn't easy especially when you have to do it in such a short amount of time, but Valerie made it so much better. When we started out she asked us several questions about what we were envisioning. There were a few things we weren't totally sure of but she walked us through various options to help us refine our vision. Her experience clearly showed because she knew so many venues in the Southern California region, many of which we didn't know about until she told us about them. She contacted many of these venues herself and sent us several great options that worked with our timing and budget. When it came time to visit, she came with us and gave is ideas for how we could decorate a place to make it look more like our wedding style. Once we had a venue picked out, she actively communicated with us. She answered every random question we had immediately, with emails and text messages, even off work hours. Wedding day coordination is key. She made sure things ran smoothly so we didn't have to worry about anything like the timeline of events and our families could just enjoy the events too. Her pricing was very competitive. We were looking at other wedding planning companies that wanted way more for full planning service. We didn't need all the bells and whistles of planning, but at the same time Valerie did everything we asked of her and offered us what we think was a much more personalized service than we could have gotten from the average wedding planning company. Valerie really helped us in our planning and made our wedding day ran well. We couldn't have done it without her! Thanks, Valerie!

She truly has a love for weddings, and she can get anyone excited about it. I came to Valerie with a pretty small budget, and she was able to turn that into the wedding of my dreams. Through her experience and expertise, she was able to guide us and advise on where we could spend a little less money and where we really needed to invest in order to achieve my vision. She has great vendors that she works with and will make sure that they fulfill their contracts to the fullest. She put in so much time into making my wedding perfect for me, and it really showed in all the details; she had so many great, original ideas that made my wedding truly unique and special. She was priceless on the day of as well; she had a great timeline and made sure that everything moved smoothly. I had told her incorrect table sizes, and when the linens were delivered, they were too small! She was quick on her feet, found a rental company open on Saturdays and was able to find tablecloths that worked with the table dimensions. She handled some of my more difficult guests with ease and professionalism. She saved the day! Whenever my husband or I had questions, Val was very quick to respond and never left us hanging. She is fun and full of energy, and makes the planning process fun (not easy). Super organized, fun, and full of great ideas-I would hire her again in a heartbeat and hope that everyone can have the same amazing experience I had with their wedding!

My husband and I first met with Lauren only a few months before our wedding date after we got a bit…read moreoverwhelmed with coordinating everything. From the first meeting, Lauren helped us create a specific plan and timeline that helped us achieve everything we wanted for our wedding and enjoy the process at the same time. Lauren fully understood our vision [which I'm sure we didn't explain very well :)] and executed it beautifully. Being a same-sex wedding, we didn't feel bound to some of the traditional elements of a wedding, and Lauren helped us brainstorm to create a very personal celebration, incorporating our backgrounds and families into so many aspects of our wedding. Lauren also introduced us to many other vendors that we would never have found if it weren't for her knowledge of the wedding industry in Southern California. In order to help us stretch our budget, Lauren coordinated with a few different furniture/decor rental companies to give us the wow-factor where it mattered without spending too much where it didn't. She also helped us negotiate prices and impressively created a lot of hand-made decorations that really tied together our wedding's aesthetic. Throughout the entire process, Lauren was so easy to work with, like working with a close friend. Lauren was instrumental in creating the wedding of our dreams and throwing the best party that we and many of our guests have been to in years. Thank you Lauren!

I came to Sarahi with a vision and she executed it perfectly. Our weddings vibe was funky, fun and colorful and Sarahi did an amazing job making our dream wedding come to life.

Arguably, the decision to book with The Divine Plan was one of the best decisions we made in our life when it came to our wedding. The Divine Plan was immediately helpful and resourceful in helping our wedding vision to come to life. The Divine Plan offered suggestions, was always open to tweaking something if requested, and was always timely in their communications with us. When worried or anxious The Divine Plan always reassured us that things were ok and would be okay. Fast forward to our wedding day. The Divine Plan made our wedding day better than we could have imagined from beginning to end. Our ceremony decor/floral, reception tablescapes, signage, sweetheart area were executed as discussed and to the T. With the help of The Divine Plan Sarahi we were on schedule for all things noted on our wedding timeline and honestly if something did go wrong with timeline I had no idea and I'm certain our guest had no idea either. Sarahi and The Divine Plan thank you a million times more for helping us make our wedding so special and memorable. We'll be forever grateful. xoxox-Wilson family

Kimberly was an absolutely amazing wedding coordinator. She was incredibly organized,…read moredetail-oriented, and always willing to step in wherever needed. She scheduled check-ins with us to help keep us on track and reduce stress as much as possible. She coordinated with all of our other vendors to make sure all the different teams were on the same page. Kimberly was the glue that held our big day together and without her, our big day wouldn't have gone nearly as smoothly without her. What really stood out was how much she cared--Kimberly treated our wedding like it was her own. She came prepared with solutions to any issues that came up and always kept our budget in mind. Her suggestions were always thoughtful and curated towards what she knew about us as a couple. She never suggested or pressured us to go in any specific direction, and wanted to always make us feel comfortable in our choice. If there was any opportunity for her to alleviate our stress or take some coordination/work off our plate, she always offered to step in and take over. She truly went above and beyond every step of the way. On the day of - Kimberly ran the entire show seamlessly. From the photo booth to our ice cream bar, she coordinated it all while making sure the rest of the reception went smoothly. All of our activities and scheduled items moved along without skipping a beat. We're so thankful for everything she did to make our day stress-free and unforgettable. We're recommending everyone we know to Kimberly and cannot thank her enough!
