THANK YOU, Samantha!…read more Samantha was my wedding reception coordinator this past January (2012). My husband and I tied the knot in November and decided to celebrate with 75 of our closest friends and family at Longshadow Ranch Winery in Temecula. Longshadow was the perfect venue and Samantha was the perfect coordinator! We could not have asked for a better person to help plan and organize our event. Samantha is friendly, personable, organized, efficient, and energetic. The day of our event, Samantha was the first person to arrive and the last person to leave. Everything turned out better then we could have ever expected. All of your hard work and dedication made our event extra special =)

Words will never be able to express how much Samantha helped me with my wedding. I could not have…read moredone it without her! We checked out Longshadow back in November of 2011 for our wedding a year later. Longshadow is a beautiful venue, of course, but what absolutely sold us on the place, was Samantha. She was so sweet and SO WELCOMING! We never felt like we were being hussled. Coordinators at other venues can be so pushy and "salesy" which is such a turn off, but Samantha was nothing like that. She was so genuine, we had to get married where she was! For the entire year of planning, Samantha was there for me! No matter what I needed, she would try and help me as best she could. Any questions were answered, and phone calls or texts answered or returned right away. Heck, I even called her when I was freaking out about guests of horror, and she calmed me down! My own future hubby couldn't even do that! I really could not have survived the year of planning without her. As it got closer to the wedding, Samantha heard from me much more, and NEVER made me feel like I was bugging her. She helped me with vendors, gave me some great ideas (we served pies at our wedding thanks to her ingenious idea!) and let me bounce my own ideas off of her. She was not only a wedding coordinator, but a great friend! The day of the wedding, she was SUPERWOMAN! I do not know how she did it, but she managed to coordinate all of my vendors, bridal party, family, and STILL I felt like she was always next to me, asking how she could help me. She did so many little things for me, that I can never list all of them, but I will never forget! I could not have lived through my day without her. She made me wear a bib while drinking red wine before the ceremony (thank goodness because I ended up needing it,) made sure my photographer got all the shots I wanted, made sure all my songs were played, MADE SURE I ATE (huge help,) took me outside for a breather if I needed it, calmed down unruly guests, and ultimately made me feel like someone had my back that day! Like I said, words can never express my appreciation for Samantha, and I know that my wedding day was such a success because she was there to help me. Sam, you're the best!!!

Hayleys attention to detail and professionalism was unmatched, and she handled any issues that arose with grace and ease.

My husband and I got married in April and hired Soiree to do our floral design. Sheila, Jen, and…read moretheir team did an amazing job making our vision come true. They are truly talented. Soiree was easy to communicate with via phone, text, and email. Sheila even found ways for us to save money by reusing some of the florals from the ceremony for reception. That was a very honest and realistic way for us to stay in budget but still have the florals of our dreams. They were prompt day of the wedding. In addition, we were worried about not having enough time with our photographer to complete the flat lays; Sheila accommodated this and allowed my husband and I to pick up the flat lay flowers the day before for this to be done (her idea!). We highly recommend this company for florals for your event! We would hire them again!

My boutonnière was so much more than what I expected and my wife's bouquet was incredible. It's one thing for us to say that we loved our arrangements.

We sent over our inspiration board/mood board and we discussed everything we wanted and didn't want. Sheila also brought us around the shop to show us different flowers she thought would work well and was so open to all of our suggestions. We highly highly highly recommend Soirée!

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.

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 helped me have the most relaxing and fun wedding day where I didn't have to worry about anything.

She joined us on numerous calls with our vendors (being flexible with timing, even during Mother's Day). Whenever we had any questions she was quick to respond and was there for us through the entire process. We were able to send her the items like our audio guest book phone, name cards, signs, fans, etc and they magically arrived when we needed them for the wedding. She took away a lot of stress during the planning process and the day of the wedding which made it much more enjoyable and memorable. I give my highest recommendation to Jen and would book her again in a heart beat.
