I have to say I was getting nervous, but my daughter (the bride) said don't worry mom she's got this. As it turned out, the wedding was flawless, it was the most beautiful Wedding I had ever seen... and a lot of that was the behind the scenes help. There is no way I could have coordinated this wedding and been there for my daughter. Don't try to do it yourself, call Christina and her partner in crime Kristen. They took care of everything. I thank you from the bottom of my heart!!!

Christina is amazing!!! She was the day of coordinator for my wedding a few months ago and I truly…read moreloved working with her! She has such a gorgeous eye for style, is thoroughly organized, a pleasure to work with, and truly exceeded my expectations as a bride. Since I was a "DIY" bride, I was experiencing quite a bit of stress leading up to my big day. Christina was always 10 steps ahead, and always had quick solutions. She really helped me tie any loose ends, kept us on schedule on our big day, and beautifully orchestrated our ceremony and reception. She delivered so much more than I could have imagined on our special day. I am absolutely thankful that she was my wedding coordinator. I couldn't have been happier with the results! If you want your big day to flow seamlessly and work with such a fun and talented coordinator, look no further and hire Christina! :)

My now-wife and I had our wedding yesterday (9.08.2019) and could not have asked for a better…read moreexperience. We are still reliving the moments and are so happy about how everything turned out. This would not have been possible without Tara of Divine by Design. We informed Tara of our September 2019 wedding back in December 2018 (9 months). She expressed initiative and communicated with us throughout the process both behind‐the-scenes and "on stage". Tara is a Day-Of-Event Coordinator, but for us, she was much more than that: Tara was a mediator who smoothed out any rough patches along the way (vendor contact, logistics, decorations). She was also a counselor during the moments when we were starting to lose our sh*t! Most importantly, she was a planner who held our hands since day one and coordinated every minute of our wedding day - starting early in the morning with decorating the church all the way to the last dance at the end of the night - And when guests were heading out the unintended exit of the venue, Tara relocated the guest gift boxes to the popular exit area. If Tara wasn't our coordinator, our experience would have been a much different story. If you're looking for a Day-of-Event coordinator, do your self a favor and hire Divine by Design.

We hired her for month of but even if I needed to ask questions or get advice from her months before she was always there! She is soooo detail oriented and made our wedding a complete masterpiece. I sent her images from pinterest so she could get the feel of what I wanted, and she did a even better job then the images. She is so well organized and such a pleasure to work with!!! I will recommend her to everyone I know that is getting married. Thank you Tara for making for making our dream wedding come true

We found Ryan on The Knot and are so grateful we did! We hired her for the entire process and could…read morenot have been happier with the result. Not being from San Diego ourselves, Ryan was extremely helpful in finding the best vendors for us within our price range. It ended up being a two year process due to the wait time for the venue we chose, but that never fazed Ryan. She was always quick to respond to our messages in a kind and professional manner, answering our seemingly never-ending questions with her never-ending patience. Ryan's spreadsheets and payment reminders were also incredibly helpful to staying organized and on top of everything. Ryan has an in-depth knowledge of the wedding industry and provided us with a multitude of creative ideas while still keeping our vision in mind. While we had a general idea of what we wanted, Ryan really helped fine tune it and turn our dream into reality. It ended up being even more spectacular than we could have ever imagined! Ryan thought of all the little details to pull the whole event together into a gorgeous, tropical paradise. On the wedding day, all we had to do was enjoy! Ryan took care of everything from coordinating with other vendors to arranging seats and decor. She scheduled our wedding day so we could have fun without feeling rushed -- we actually had time to eat and enjoy cocktail hour with our guests! It was the perfect day and we can't thank Ryan enough for ensuring we had the best of the best. (:

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!

Melissa was incredible - she helped us plan our reception at Seabird Resort and I truly feel like…read moreshe went above and beyond- in logistics and emotional support! 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.

All of the day-of details were perfect and she was a constant calm and fun presence. She had the best vendor contacts for us during the planning process and our vendors and venue clearly loved working with her. I also appreciated that she gave us ideas for things like personalized napkins for cocktail hour, photos on the tables, etc. but also was upfront about which details she thought took a lot of time and money and weren't worth stressing about. I would 100% recommend Gina (and am someone with very high expectations) without hesitation.

We had an incredible experience with Stephanie Wooding and Best Day Ever. From the very beginning,…read moreStephanie brought the perfect mix of calm confidence, deep expertise, and genuine care. We spoke with a few planners before deciding, and what stood out about Stephanie immediately was how organized and experienced she was -- she asked the right questions, anticipated things we didn't even know to consider yet, and made us feel like we were in very capable hands. Throughout the planning process, Stephanie was thoughtful, responsive, and solution-oriented. She helped us stay on track without ever making it feel stressful, and she consistently brought us back to what mattered most: having a wedding that felt like us and actually enjoying the experience along the way. About a month before the wedding, we transitioned to her associate Jenn Anderson as our day-of coordinator -- and we truly couldn't have asked for a smoother handoff. Stephanie set Jenn up with all the context and details, and Jenn executed everything flawlessly. She was professional, calm, and on top of every moving part, which allowed us (and our families) to be fully present and actually enjoy the day. Multiple guests commented on how seamless everything felt and how amazing the coordination was -- and we completely agree. If you're looking for a planning team that is organized, experienced, kind, and genuinely committed to making your day feel easy and joyful, Best Day Ever is it. We are so grateful to Stephanie and Jenn for helping make our wedding the best day ever.
