From the very beginning, working with Gina gave me complete confidence that every question would be answered and every detail would be handled. On the wedding day itself, I never had to worry about a thing because I knew she had everything under control. Her strong working relationship with RBI was incredibly valuable throughout the planning process and made everything feel seamless. Since I'm not local to the San Diego area and didn't always have a clear vision of exactly what I wanted, Gina's recommendations and guidance were invaluable. Anytime I needed vendor suggestions, she immediately sent thoughtful recommendations, and whenever I wanted to dive deeper into details, she made it happen. We met in person multiple times leading up to the wedding weekend, and she helped bring all of the details together so beautifully. She was always available to answer texts or calls, which made the entire process feel so much less stressful. I really appreciated how Gina truly followed my lead and helped execute the vision we wanted. By the time the wedding weekend arrived, I didn't have to think twice about anything -- it all came together so perfectly, and it truly was the most wonderful weekend. I'm so grateful for everything Gina did to make our wedding such a special experience.

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.

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.

From the very beginning, Troy Sand made us feel confident in choosing Abbey. He was knowledgeable, personable, and helped us feel reassured that we were making the right decision for our wedding. One of the things we especially loved about Abbey was their all-inclusive wedding packages. Having so many important elements coordinated through one team made the planning process significantly easier and gave us peace of mind. Their packages included florals, food, dessert, DJ, decorations, an assigned wedding coordinator, and even options for wedding photography and an officiant (although we selected our own for these 2 categories). It was wonderful having everything thoughtfully organized in one place rather than having to discover and coordinate numerous vendors separately. Our wedding coordinator, Chuck Ferrante, was fantastic throughout the process. He was extremely detailed, reliable, and had excellent communication throughout the entire planning process. We always felt informed, supported, and confident that every detail was being taken care of. Having someone as organized and dependable as Chuck made the entire experience so much less stressful. On our wedding day, the entire Abbey team helped everything come together beautifully. The food was delicious, the setup and decorations were gorgeous, and the service was professional and seamless. Most importantly, they allowed us to relax, celebrate, and truly enjoy our wedding with our family and friends. We are incredibly grateful to Troy, Chuck, and the entire Abbey Catering team for helping make our wedding day so special. If you're looking for a wedding company that can provide an elegant, convenient, and truly all-inclusive experience, we highly recommend Abbey Catering!

From our very first conversation with Troy to the final goodbye with the team on our wedding night, every interaction was exceptional.

A huge thank you to Chuck and the entire Abbey team for going above and beyond for us. The level of care and attention to detail was incredible, and everything came together so beautifully. So many of our guests told us it was one of the best weddings they had ever attended, and we truly credit that to the amazing team we chose. We also have to give a special shout-out to Mishele. Her design eye is incredible! The florals were absolutely breathtaking and exceeded everything we envisioned. We had countless guests tell us they were the most beautiful wedding flowers they had ever seen. Every detail felt thoughtful, elevated, and completely us. And Abel was AMAZING! He is truly one of the best DJs we have ever experienced. Our black-and-white dance floor stayed packed all night, the energy was incredible, and everyone had the best time. Seeing all of our favorite people dancing together all night was one of our favorite memories from the wedding. Choosing Abbey was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. They didn't just provide services--they helped create an experience that we and our guests will remember forever. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you to Chuck, Troy, Mishele, Abel, Luis, and the entire Abbey team. We could not have brought our dream wedding to life without you, and we will forever be grateful that you were part of such an important day in our lives. With so much gratitude, The Dalys

When we met Laura (Josefina Events Founder and CEO), it was immediately clear that she is brilliant, engaging, and kind.

All in all, the trays are absolutely modern and beautiful and all the fill-ins look and taste wonderfully great. The Vietnamese bridal dress is so beautiful as well.

Throughout the day she was constantly keeping things moving while maintaining such a positive and fun attitude that big or small thing she needed us to do felt so exciting to us. There were so many things going on that day, it was so great to be able to trust Katey to know when and where we had to be.

Robert took the time to chat with us and help us navigate the world of wedding planning in San Diego. Even prior to booking them, he spent time chatting with us and genuinely gave us ideas and support to go on our way with our vendor search and decision making. We did our tasting at the Abbey downtown and got to taste our meal at this venue. They asked a lot of questions so that they could just our meal just right. The Abbey was responsible for the catering and bar service at our event. A few months prior to our event, we were assigned our event captain Petr Trebin! HE IS FABULOUS! We loved his enthusiasm, attention to detail and style and focus on ensuring that everyone was well taken care of! Our event was seamless and everything went incredibly smooth. Upon entering our reception, the Martini Tree brought the wow factor! The hanging drinks caught the eye of our guests and warmly welcomed them into the reception. Many of our guests raved over the food and went out of their way to stress how delicious everything tasted. We chose a handful of delicious tray passed appetizers including the bacon wrapped figs, cream cheese wontons and soyrizo quesadillas and for dinner, chose the Abbey Signature Salad (mixed greens with walnuts) and Dual Entree plate with short rib, panko crusted chicken, truffle mashed potatoes and vegetables. Through out our event, Petr was a ninja- behind the scenes ensuring that everything was going as planned. He worked hand in hand with our coordinator and ensured we were well fed and that we had food readily at our disposal (SO IMPORTANT on your wedding day). He plated us all of our apps in a beautiful display. We actually felt full from how much we ate, which we hear is so rare from couples on their wedding day and were grateful for how attentive Petr was. In addition, our guests shared that the bartenders were rockstars! The drinks were pouring and it made for an epic dance party on the dance floor. The Abbey came highly recommended by our venue coordinator and we understand why. We had a great experience with them and are glad they were a part of our big day!
