They are very quick to respond, and stay on top of all the details of your day for you. My makeup artist dropped the ball last minute, they recommended me to a new artist, set up the appointment, and went to my trial with me. I couldn't be happier with this new artist. They both have gorgeous taste, and bonus, you get two opinions !! We're planning a destination wedding in SD, and its been seamless. Do not plan a socal wedding without this fantasist duo. Thank you for everything ladies, Ellie

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 had such a wonderful experience at Babylon Palace, thanks to the owner, Mike. From the very…read morebeginning, he did everything he possibly could to make sure my daughter's Sweet 16 was the most special and memorable night. He's honestly one of the kindest and most humble business owners I've ever me, and it showed in the way he took care of every detail. We loved that we got to sample his popular chipotle sauce...amazing! Also let us sample the chocolate he uses for the chocolate fountain, also amazing! We actually got to sample a slice of cake, which was very delicious. Even though we went with a different person for the cake, it was delicious! The hall itself was gorgeous and much bigger than what we actually needed, but that turned out to be a blessing. There was so much room between tables, so guests could move around comfortably without squeezing between chairs. My cousin, who was on a knee scooter due to a leg injury and an aunt with a walker, were able to get around with ease, including to and from the large restrooms. What really surprised me were all the extras that came with the hall-I didn't even have to bring in much of my own, though I still added one desert table for the candy apples we had. The snack table he had, was a big hit and everyone loved it. Mike made it the whole process so easy and stress-free, and I can honestly say the night couldn't have been better. I'm so grateful for the experience and would recommend Babylon Palace to anyone who wants their event to feel truly special.

Our venue came with coordinators but we decided to hire Megan Joy Events (per the recommendation of…read morea friend). And thank goodness we did!!! Our venue's coordination team did not compare to Megan. We mostly hired Megan to help us with our planning prior to the wedding since we were planning it from the Bay Area (and our wedding was in San Diego). We started working together about 10 months before the wedding and she attended all of our coordination meetings - bringing up things I never would've thought of on my own and helped to try to get us the best prices. She helped brainstorm things for our vision of the wedding, and offered tons of advice along the way. Once things started coming together she was a HUGE help in coordinating all my vendors, setting up a detailed timeline (this was seriously key) and following up on any and all unanswered questions. She managed all of our vendor contact - which was sooo helpful. Everyone knew to go to her before coming to me so I had a filter before any questions came to my inbox. When our timeline was nailed down, she did a great job of communicating it with everyone and making sure that everyone was well informed. We didn't have to worry about anything! On the actual day of, we had Montana as our onsite coordinator. She was also amazing!! She made sure everything went to plan and there were no snags in our timeline. I had little gifts for the bridesmaids that I wanted set up before we arrived on site, and she made this happen. We actually ran out of alcohol (twice!) and she was a hero and ran to the store to the grab us what we needed. I cannot thank her enough for doing this! I didn't have to worry about any of this during the day - she just confirmed once with us and the bar was restocked before we knew it. Not only was Megan amazing as a coordinator but she's an awesome human as well. She made sure that I was happy with everything and was SO readily available whenever I needed to chat - whether it be about a vendor, or any other detail that came up. I'm so happy that I had Megan Joy Events for our wedding day and would absolutely choose them again in a heartbeat.

We had a midweek wedding at the end of August at the Sacred Mountain Retreat in Julian California…read more The venue is a very a la cart package which gave us both the privilege and responsibility of vendor flexibility. Megan came recommended and trusted by the venue so we had faith in hiring her. She more than delivered to our expectations. With only six months to arrange our vendors Megan helped coordinate the various points of contact allowing us to focus on the personal logistics of getting married (legal, insurance etc) which took so much stress off of us. Each of our vendors praised Megan's thorough approach and organized planning when we went for our final walk-through. The day of the wedding Megan was busy ensuring our table arrangements matched our vision and communicated to the other vendors where to set up. She was everywhere. Megan also checked in with each of us personally to make sure everyone was moving according to schedule. We had heard that many weddings feel like they are running behind or pressured for time but we had none of that - likely due to Megan's great work. When the cocktail hour and reception came around there was one issue of bees attacking some of our food. Megan was on top of it and managed the situation wonderfully. Reflecting on our wedding we only have positive memories - an amazing day we will never forget.

You responded with clear, detailed plans that were easy to review and adjust. When we suggested changes, you were willing to modify the food plan, even suggesting the addition of vegetarian menu options. Andie and Stephanie worked so hard and made the event absolutely perfect. They professionally set up, and they were so wonderful with cleaning and packing up. The food displays were dialed in with all the needed parts and looked fabulous. Afterward, the weather was so hot and humid that it must have been very difficult to get all the equipment out; however, they hauled out all the supplies, making it seem like they were never even there. They worked so hard for our party and I was so grateful that I didn't have to think about the food and drinks for the entire event. I will recommend you to friends and family, and I look forward to another event in the future.

The communication was easy. There was a last minute change in venues and he was very nice and flexible to the changes. Sam gave us a photo package that works with our budget. He made us feel comfortable during our photo session. My husband and I tend to be awkward when posing for professional photos, but Sam was able to make us feel relaxed and be ourselves. He has a unique talent of capturing special moments, resulting in photos that truly captured the essence of our special day. Not only is Sam incredibly talented behind the camera, but he is also have a great personality. He is truly a pleasure to work with.

We worked closely with Hannah, Sabrina, and Victoria. I would absolutely choose BRICK again!
