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. I got a few extra brains, ears, eyes and hands on my project and they completely succeeded in making my vision a reality and minimized the number of headaches I had to deal with throughout the process.

We never would have discovered them with out her. She is super organized and detail oriented, which made me jump for joy as I am very Type A as well. She ran our rehearsal in an efficient and timely manner. She also created a complete script and timeline for our wedding day. 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! I got married two weeks ago and am still getting messages from friends and family saying our wedding was the best they have ever been too!

Let me start off by saying Back Patio Event Design was one of the best things to happen for our…read morewedding planning journey! And it was a journey; we were supposed to get married September of 2020 and we needed to reschedule due to COVID to August 2021. Laura and BPED were instrumental in helping us reschedule with all of our vendors. They also were very informative with all restrictions and guidelines and helped us in the decision making process. We had the pleasure of working with Laura as our primary Event Director and she was phenomenal! She was always super responsive, willing to hop on a call to chat through things, and had a great list of vendor referrals. And let me tell you, day of the wedding, she ran the show flawlessly! We had a lot of vendors and rentals we brought in that needed to be directed on where everything went. During the last couple of months leading up to the wedding, we met with Laura multiple times and we walked through everything from rental/item placements, personal items, logistics, etc. and I felt so confident in Laura's vision as well as her understanding of my own vision for the wedding. We always felt such relief after meeting with Laura. The wedding itself was beyond perfect. Every detail that we discussed was executed perfectly. Laura put together an incredible timeline based on what was important to us as a couple on our wedding day. We were able to actually enjoy cocktail hour, we ate dinner (which I've heard can be difficult!), and had hours out on the dance floor. Laura made it all possible for us to soak in every moment of the day and enjoy it with all of our guests. I will be recommending BPED to every newly engaged couple that I know because everyone deserves to have an incredible planning and wedding experience! If you are thinking about booking them, just do it! You will not regret booking this incredible team!

At time when we were searching…read morefor an event coordinator or even only a day of coordinator it was honestly so difficult to decide what we wanted to do and what was within our budget. When we first reached out to BPED, Laura was eager to setup a call and get to know us. I kid you not, after speaking with her, she was such a breath of fresh air, so much weight had been lifted off our shoulders, we knew we had found our team. Not only are they super organized (which I adored), throughout the entire planning process Laura and the BPED team were right there for us, answering every small and big question, offered their suggestions, anything we needed, they were there. They kept us up to date on what still needed to be done on our check list and what items we should focus on in the future. We planned each week and/or month out and never felt overwhelmed. They constantly asked us such GREAT questions on different topics, that truly made our day go so smoothly. The day of the wedding arrived and there is absolutely no way, we could have done anything without Laura and BPED!! They made our dreams into a reality, the day was perfect, absolutely perfect. Laura always checked on us and asked if we needed anything. There was a constant smile on both our faces and we did not want the day to end. We will forever be grateful for Laura and BPED. They are a professional team, so talented, and have a true passion for what they do best! Look no further, Back Patio Event Design is here to make your dreams come true!!!

Daniel is the absolute best! His positive energy and great vibes made for an unforgettable night…read more We didn't have a wedding coordinator, but Daniel took the time to call me beforehand and iron out a schedule. He were super attentive to our guests' needs and read the energy of the room perfectly. He helped us stay right on schedule without me having to keep track.

Daniel was open to all of my ideas regarding music. He is an absolute perfectionist when it comes to sound quality. The sound equipment provided from our venue was not very good especially for a wedding ceremony on the beach. Daniel provided all of his own sound equipment and we heard every emotion and inflection without any wind/static interference of any kind. He was amazing at creating our personalized choices on all things (our music selections, timing, grand entrance announcements, etc.). The wedding was non stop dancing and he also added incredible lighting that just made people want to dance! Daniel really knows how to read a room and play perfect songs that get the people going! Best decision hiring Daniel as our DJ.

Keep in mind, I'm writing this as a freshly minted groom as of July 6, 2013…read more.. I'm nothing more than an average male. For some reason, my now beautiful wife agreed to marry me. Before she said yes to my proposal, I never dreamed of how my wedding would look or what food would be served to our wedding guests or what I'd wear. I assumed we be visiting a justice of the peace. When the now wife said she wanted a fairly traditional wedding, I tried to encourage her to try a DIY wedding. We'd book a venue, we'd book a caterer, a DJ, a bartender, buy the booze, find someone for decorations, find a florist, etc. I didn't want to hire a wedding planner...probably because I disliked that J-Lo movie. After writing down all of the things we needed to arrange for to pull off a proper yet contemporary wedding that would satisfy my Chaldean family and her American family, we both felt overwhelmed. Even though my better half is very organized (me, not so much), we still were feeling extremely insecure. We were drowning under "what ifs" and "should wes" and "do you thinks." Frankly, as time ticked closer to summer, we became more lost. Our only accomplishment was booking a ceremony and reception venue on the date we wanted. The then fiancée happened to walk past an event being held at our reception venue about four months before our date. We were both still reeling under the chest pressure of trying to create, plan and pull off our day. When she looked inside, she was floored by the look, smell, sound and feel of the venue. With some pushy prying and some happenstance, she met the event planner, Lauren Lisker, that night. Later that night, I was told tales of Lauren's talent and we met with Lauren and her Joie de Vivre parter, Erica, for an interview. Both women instantly struck me as being confident, experienced, classy and completely organized. More importantly, neither of the two women gave off any vibe like they were running a for profit business. They both were sincere about wanting to make our wedding day special. They were patient with us, which was important, as we didn't have a large budget. And even though we told them our below average budget, they didn't laugh at us, flinch or find a way to leave the meeting early. They never made us feel ashamed. They said they would find a way. We hired them and Lauren sure did find the way! Lauren is probably the most thorough, most organized and most wedding industry connected person I will ever have the chance to meet. She ushered us calmly and creatively out of our self induced wedding pressure chamber onto an organized pathway to the perfect party. She was so calm that I wanted to check her for a pulse or add her as a closer on my fantasy baseball team. She responded promptly to emails and phone calls and made us feel like she was working only for us even though we knew she had other clients at the same time. Lauren always had options for us. She never told us we couldn't do something. She always found a way to make it work, within our budget, and to our liking. Most importantly, Lauren was always gracefully glowing, happy, positive and encouraging. So much so, that after it was done, our bridesmaids told me my bride showed no signs of pre-wedding stress at all. I owe that to Lauren being there and being ready for anything. I can't write enough good things about Lauren Lisker and Joie de Vivre without sounding like I'm on their payroll, which I'm not! From the groom's perspective, if you're thinking about a DIY wedding that's more than a simple backyard affair, don't. Hire Joie de Vivre. They kicked ass! They did such a good job that I may have cried a couple of times at my wedding and my buddies from work probably won't let me forget about it for the rest of my career. Thank you, Lauren! You are great at what you do and you are an incredible person!

All her recommendations for vendors and things to add to enhance our big day were amazing! Any time I had an idea, concern, or anything, she was there for us. Throughout the whole year leading up to the big day, she truly became a part of our family. Our day was picture perfect and seamless.

She is an excellent listener and makes sure she has a full understanding of what you envision for your wedding day. If you don't know what you want, she will ask the right questions so you figure out your vision. During the planning process, she was our counselor, negotiator, hypewoman, and oftentimes - therapist. Her kindness and down to earth nature really helped guide us through the intensity of planning. It's inevitable that drama occurs during the process, and we were so grateful Jessica had our back on all fronts. She is someone you 100% need on your team. Our wedding day was perfect, and we got so many compliments regarding not just the beautiful wedding, but compliments for Jessica herself! Several of our wedding party mentioned that they would have loved to hire her for their weddings. She was a beacon of calm and serene (on the outside :P) during the crazy hectic day and made sure we were our own priority, which is a difficult task when everyone wants your attention! Thank you for taking care of us Jessica - my only regret is that I only plan to be married once, otherwise, I'd get to work with her again and again. Run, do not walk, to get Jessica on board for your wedding! Xo, Max + Myan
