I decided to hire Kelly as my florist several years ago. I was photographer at the wedding and was…read moretaking pictures, thinking "I love all the details. I LOVE THEM!" I decided on the florist for my wedding even before I met my husband. He he. So I got Kelly's business card and emailed her when the preparation for the big day came. She was sweet and personable. I wasn't too detail oriented. I just showed her a few things that I liked to give general direction and asked her to play and do the best she can from there. She acceded my expectations so much that I ended up giving her my deposit for all the props as a tip. Highly recommend!

I've never hired a DJ before! This was important! I was planning my own surprise birthday party…read more hahahaha! Checked out reviews on Yelp. Called the three that caught my eye. Talked to a few via tele and selected Events by Design. Mostly because John G. returned my call so quickly and the price was right! I coordinated with the owner John Gillon by phone and email. He couldn't have made it easier! He is an easy going guy. Pleasure doing business with him. He followed through on every promise and every one of my questions. He set me up with a DJ named John! I had a few special requests. Some mellow tunes for dinner then some dancing. Had to include some Persian tunes so I could watch my hubby 'shake it up' on the dance floor. Also, this party was in my backyard so DJ John recommended a visit to scope out the party pad! He stopped by at the time he promised. Hung out with us out back and discussed what we wanted and what he could do for the party. He was so nice! Offered to bring lights for the caterers, too. Plus, dance lights. He said he'd bring them and then he'd have them if we wanted to use them. We did --- it was a fabulous idea. He took the list of my favorite bands and solo artists. Suggested 40's during the mellow times. I loved it! Then dance tunes. He was very receptive to play for kids and adults. He asked if he could take requests from the guests. Absolutely yes. The night of the party. He set up even earlier than he said he would. He taped down the wires. Set-up the speakers. Checked in with me frequently but at the appropriate times (never intrusive). I had wanted a DJ to make it more about atmosphere and music --- rather than focus on the DJ (or even the birthday girl). He did a fabulous job at keeping the tunes rolling. Made the announcements for dinner and dancing. Yes, we did dance! Woop Woop HANDS UP IN THE AIR! Even announced when my daughter lost her first tooth. I cannot say enough nice things about the personal and seamless service! The end of the night. He taught the little girls to scratch. Sweet. He also stuck around and taught me and another mommy a few things about the dj world and music in his computer. I am so happy with the outcome of my surprise birthday party. Really, so much better than just me dj'ing with my Ipod and speakers. THANKS SO MUCH FOR MAKING MY BIRTHDAY SPECIAL AND MEMORABLE!

My husband and I hired Events by Design to DJ our wedding. We worked specifically with Scott…read moreZimmerman and had a FANTASTIC time working with him! Unlike other DJ's that some friends have worked with, Scott did a great job of playing almost all of our requests, filling in the "blanks" with songs that he knew we'd love based off of our requests, and completely avoiding anything on our do-not-play list. He could not have been a more nice, professional, or fun DJ to work with. Due to a few other "glitches" (not related to anything to do with Scott or EBD), the wedding/reception were running a bit behind schedule and Scott offered to stay and play a bit beyond his ending time so that the reception could wind down properly. We'd met with a few other DJs and were feeling a bit skeptical by the time that we met with Scott, but my husband and I really clicked with him and knew that he'd be perfect for our ceremony/reception as soon as we'd talked with him the first time, and we were right. Scott was awesome, and we highly recommend him.

I live in a neighborhood of San Diego which requires all home owners to financially support the RB…read moreSwim and Tennis Club, have been since we moved to our current home some 12 years ago. There are two levels of membership, the required one, which has an annual fee approaching $500, and which only allows up to six visits per year, and the unlimited one with an annual fee nearing $700. When people buy in this area, they are adequately informed of their future financial obligations. The facility is quite nice, the other members are generally friendly and most of the lower level staff are equally friendly and capable. There exists two pool areas, one reserved for seniors, adequate shade, and also an ok fitness facility. There are areas for children, many tennis and pickleball courts, meeting rooms, and several annual family picnic events. Of late, many of the required members, who often moved here when the annual rate was much lower, have been unhappy with the cost for something they do not use, and if they did, it would be around $80 per visit, while the enhanced members can attend daily if they so please, possibly at as low a rate as $2 per visit. I understand the need for funding of the physical plant and of adequate reserves for future expenses, and would not personally use the facilities much anymore, as 80 is in my rear view, but think that the board should consider an increase in the allowed annual allowed number of visits equal on a percentage basis to the lat ten years of financial obligatory increases. This might mitigate some of the current unhappiness. And no, I don't wish to serve on the board of directors. Been there, done that.

I came here to play pickleball as a guest of one of the RBSTC members. Therefore, this review is…read moremainly for the facility and the pickleball courts and playing conditions. RBSTC is an old HOA membership only club (for people that live in the community). It is dated, crowded, and very guarded with partitions, fences/gates to separate different activities. They are very strict with tracking and making sure guests are checked in properly. You feel like you're visiting a friend in prison with all the info and form that you have to fill out and sign. But once you get through the check point, the facility is quite nice with swimming pool, tennis courts, pickleball courts, basketball courts, batting cages, etc. Pickleball is the latest craze and is very popular among club members. RBSTC has 8 pickleball courts to accommodate the demands. The courts are nicely surfaced and maintained. However, the center fences are too close to one side of the back courts which hindered your movement and serves. It's great that the courts have lights so you can play at night. But they should upgrade to LED lights for better visual and to enhance play.

I wanted it to be extravagant, classy and a little sassy. They spent so much time coming up with different ideas for me and paid so much attention to all the little details and gave me amazing options. They were patient with me and really made me feel comfortable with every decision I made. The party was a huge success. They showed up and delivered! All of my guests were so impressed with the decor and design. The vibe was perfect and direct quotes from a few of my guests were "Party of the year!"

The rental process was easy: I filled out a form with my contact information, and everything was handled smoothly. They brought the chairs out right away, unloaded them from the dolly, and loaded both the chairs and canopy into our car with great care. They even took extra steps to protect the interior of the car from any damage. It seems like the business is run by a husband-and-wife team with a few helpers, and they are all extremely friendly and thoughtful. The best part was that they never pressured us about the return date or time, which made the whole rental experience stress-free. We truly enjoyed doing business with them and would absolutely rent from them again. Very thrilled to write review on the store.

They set up everything to the T, exactly as I had envisioned (if not better!). When I first walked through the foyer, my jaw dropped because everything was set up so beautifully! I loved every little bit!! Throughout the day, they were incredibly helpful and went above and beyond, anticipating needs before we even realized them. They also checked in with us making sure we were hydrated and had full belly's! We are so grateful and very thankful for their dedication and hard work that made our day absolutely perfect.

Our first initial meet with Janine she was warm, kind, smiling, professional, and listened to our vision for our perfect day while still suggesting great options. I knew then that she and her team were the ones we wanted to hire. She kept in constant contact throughout our whole planning time not only with us but all our vendors as well. The day of the wedding ran perfectly and any hiccups that came about (because they do) she handled it with ease and professionalism and made my day so incredibly special. The venue was more than I expected and her detailed touches to the decor made for a very personal and intimate setting. I highly recommend Janine Sofianos at Lace and Champagne Events.
