Every detail was thoughtfully handled, and nothing was overlooked. The level of care and attention they brought to every aspect of the day was incredible. Even the smallest details that mattered deeply to us were executed flawlessly. Throughout the day, we felt completely taken care of. Their calm professionalism allowed us to be fully present and enjoy every moment with our family and friends. Rachel even made a mid-dinner stain on my dress disappear as if it had never happened. And while we know they can't technically control the weather, we're still convinced they found a way to turn an 85% chance of rain into the most beautiful sunny day imaginable. We are endlessly grateful for the care, creativity and heart they brought to our wedding. It was everything we dreamed of and more, and we couldn't have imagined a better team by our side. Some people are meant for days like this, and Molly and Rachel are two of them.

We first found Molly and Rachel while touring what would eventually become our wedding venue,…read moreScripps Seaside Forum. They were setting up for another wedding there and I loved every part of it and had to get their card. From the very beginning they made the entire planning process feel easy and organized. Their use of Aisle Planner was incredibly helpful. We loved that it allowed us to have multiple logins for family members and let us keep track of all contracts, timelines, and details in one place. Molly and Rachel were always quick to respond to any questions we had and they kept us on track every step of the way. I never felt like I had to check in or worry about what needed to be done because I knew they would let us know exactly when something needed attention. They know Scripps Seaside Forum so well and gave us the best vendor recommendations. We truly loved every single referral they provided. Even once peak wedding season began, we never felt overlooked. They continued to be responsive and attentive, even on weekends when they were busy working other weddings. Molly and Rachel are professional, organized, knowledgeable, and have such a great eye for design. On our wedding day when the weather unexpectedly changed, they made the transition to Plan B feel seamless. They gave me their honest opinion about what would make our guests most comfortable and create the best experience given the circumstances, which I appreciated so much. I truly could not recommend Molly and Rachel enough. They made the planning process so much easier and helped us feel completely taken care of from start to finish. My mom and I are counting down the days for my little sister to get engaged just so we can work with them again!!

She was so professional, organized, and had such a kind and calm demeanor. She kept me up to date on all the planning details, provided a schedule well in advance, and connected me with all the vendors. The bride and groom took time at the end of their night to sing her praises as well. I highly recommend working with her, both from a vendor and a client perspective!

Sara at Golden Poppy Events planned my 100-person wedding from start to finish at the Four Seasons…read moreHotel in August 2017. She also was the day-of coordinator. I can't say thank you enough for what she did. The design and styling of the event was top notch and the entire weekend went on flawlessly without a hitch. She executed the whole three-day affair, from rehearsal to rehearsal dinner, the makeup and hair/get ready rooms, ceremony, reception, and post-wedding brunch. She gave us excellent vendor recommendations and was able to get us preferred pricing. Sara was also very good at guiding us through the process - neither my husband or I are familiar with the wedding industry and how things work, she was there every step of the way helping us out. I am not a very creative person (I'm an accountant for a living) and Sara was able to tell me what decorative elements would make an impact, where to save money and DIY, and what the current trends/traditions are in the wedding industry to incorporate into my wedding. I'd highly recommend her for any complex wedding and event planning needs. She killed it!

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. On the wedding day, Melissa and her assistant coordinator, Elena, made sure everything went according to plan. My husband and I felt completely stress-free that morning because we knew Melissa and her team had everything under control. We were able to simply enjoy our day and be present in the moment, which was exactly what we wanted. I would HIGHLY recommend Melissa and her team to anyone planning a wedding. We are so grateful for everything they did to make our wedding day so seamless and special!

I've had the pleasure of working with Melissa from I Do Weddings and Events on several weddings,…read moreand every single time I find myself thinking, "This bride is so lucky to have Melissa!" She is incredibly professional, organized, kind, and truly one of the sweetest wedding planners I've ever worked with. She has such a calm, warm presence, which makes such a difference on a wedding day--not only for the couple and their families, but for all of us vendors working behind the scenes. 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. I highly recommend Melissa and I Do Weddings and Events to any couple looking for an experienced, caring, and genuinely wonderful wedding planner. She is an absolute gem!

THE BEST HIRE!!!! Christine and Lavish were recommended to…read moreme by a friend at work. She said her sister was a wedding planner and created beautiful weddings. She was not wrong! I am so impressed by Christine and her team. My husband and I were engaged for over a year and Gabriela took care of us in the beginning from getting a vision board together, a color palette selected, and an overall concept/theme put together. They recommended different vendors and were realist about setting a budget. I originally found their online aisle planner website difficult and hard to navigate at first and learned to really appreciate it down the road. It wasn't that it was hard to navigate more than I didn't take the time to explore all the different features. It was a life saver for me and later turned into my wedding bible because it housed all my vendor information, payment schedules, important dates, seating chart, checklists, and more. Fast forward to the month before the wedding. Christine was amazing and set up all our final vendor meetings, etc. she made sure all the vendors talked to each other and coordinated everything with the hotel. She took care of all the vendor logistics, COI, etc. Which at the time, I didn't realize was a lot. She was crucial in selecting our decor and creating the timeline. The day of the wedding comes and Christine was there bright and early setting everything up. We had an attendant, Tiffany, assigned to the bridesmaids, another one dedicated to the groomsmen, Christine setting up in the reception hall, and later, Diana, a runner and they all were amazing! They were there the entire time of us getting ready and making sure we could connect with Christine as she handled the vendors coming in. They made sure we were taken care of, checked in, and never left. Diana was also a life saver and had my shoes ready for me to change into after all the photos. I could go on for days and never capture how much Christine and her team truly helped us. They helped set up, tear down, managed my family and guests, managed all the vendors, and handled all the melt downs. They were the absolute best hire! I am truly impressed and am forever grateful to Christine and her team. I 100% recommend Lavish & Co. for any wedding. They were truly amazing and went above and beyond, exceeded all expectations. My husband and I are not the easiest people and I know that. But, Christine and her team were so gracious and accommodating throughout the whole process. I have no complaints. Thank you Lavish for making my wedding a beautiful dream come true!

We cannot say enough great things about the Lavish Wedding Team, and especially Gabriela! From the…read moremoment we met Gabriela, it was clear that she wasn't just a wedding planner--she was someone deeply invested in making our wedding day a reflection of us as a couple. She took the time during our very first meeting to ask about our personal story--how we met, how my husband proposed, and what made our relationship unique. This was something no other planner had done, and it immediately made us feel like we were in the hands of someone who truly cared. She has become more than just a wedding planner, and is now one of our friends. Our wedding was a beautiful blend of two distinct cultures, and Lavish went above and beyond to ensure that every detail honored both of our traditions in a way that felt seamless and cohesive. Gabriela found creative ways to incorporate elements of each culture into the decor, ceremony, and reception, making our celebration not just special, but incredibly personal. Her thoughtful approach to merging these cultural elements was absolutely perfect, and we were so grateful for the care she took to ensure everything felt authentic and meaningful. On top of all that, the Lavish team was incredibly attentive to every last detail. There were a few last-minute challenges on the day of the wedding, and they handled them with such grace and professionalism that we didn't have to worry about a thing. If you're looking for a wedding planning team who will go above and beyond to make your day as special as it can be, look no further than Lavish.

Jamila was my contact for a wedding. I am a wedding photographer and film maker for Image In Love…read moreand we were both working with a lovely couple for their wedding at the wedding bowl in La Jolla. Jamila was so thorough and went over all the details with me. She was easy to get ahold of and had all the info to help me with the day of. When I met her at the ceremony site I noticed everything was dialed in and looking very pretty. I met her and she was so nice. She was very on point with the schedule and also just a very friendly person. During family photos I was gathering people and she just jumped in to help me and did such a good job. That is really above and beyond what I am used to at weddings. Overall I was just so happy to meet Jamila and get to work with her. If you are looking for a solid detailed friendly and on point person for your wedding. You are in great hands with Jamila.

We wanted a wedding that felt personal and intimate: with meaningful details and moments of connection that would outlast the weekend. Heather understood the vision perfectly. We never followed up with anyone else. The journey of planning was also so much fun. The whole team is so attentive, proactive, and collaborative, I never felt overwhelmed. They handled all the coordination, contracts and scheduling so I could focus on the fun parts :) They replied to every thought, idea and question in the essay length emails I sent! Heather thought of things we never would have, down to whether our chairs would actually be comfortable for a long night. I am still in awe of Heather's eye for detail and how creatively and beautifully she wove our story and the people who shaped it into the design: the puzzles and picnic baskets at our Haldi; the garden party of our dreams for the Welcome Dinner; the handcrafted canopy for our ceremony; my painted flowers in the invitations and reception decor - the details still make us smile. I spent my wedding weekend celebrating with the people I love and truly being in the moment. The team took care of everything, from making sure I had water throughout, gluing my broken earring back together, to straightening my veil before I walked down the aisle. I am so grateful for everything. Heather and team are more than just planners to us, they became family.

They took our vision, elevated it, and brought it to life in ways we could have never imagined on our own. Throughout the entire planning process, they were thoughtful collaborators - always listening, guiding and finding fresh, beautiful ways to make the day feel uniquely "us." What impressed us even more is that this was a venue they had never worked at before, and they absolutely blew us away. You would've thought they'd been designing events there for years - they understood the space instantly and transformed it flawlessly! On the wedding day, they didn't miss a beat. Truly. Their team was on it from morning to night, managing every moving part seamlessly. We never had to worry about a thing and they handled it all with so much grace, calmness and professionalism that we were able to be fully present and just enjoy the day. We highly, highly recommend Amorology! Working with Heather and her team was one of the best decisions we made. Our day was a dream, and we owe so much of that to them!

Kelsie and the team at Heart for Hospitality were by far the best vendor-hire decision we made…read morewhile planning our wedding! With them, you get so much more than what you pay for. We first hired Kelsie as our Day of Coordinator, and unlike most Day of Coordinators, she didn't limit our texts, emails, or chats leading up to the wedding if we needed anything or had any questions to run by her. Along with being a go-to source for more ideas, questions, and recommendations, she also has a whole warehouse full of rentals at your disposal! We then hired Lori for our florals and she did a beyond stellar job! I initially went into florals not knowing what I wanted other than "colorful" and "cascading bouquet". We went to a floral warehouse and pointed out flowers my fiancé and I thought looked nice and then let Lori handle it from there. When she handed me my bouquet on the day I gasped at how gorgeous it turned out. I went from not caring that much about the florals, to raving so much about them that we decided to get ours preserved! We cannot thank Kelsie and the team at Heart for Hospitality enough for truly being even better than we could have imagined. You will not regret hiring them!

I knew we had to have a safe space for our littlest guests since our venue has concrete but was close to giving up after so many contacts that returned unreasonable prices. Then, I stumbled upon Thaisha. From inquiry to execution, her and her husband helped us bring our vision to life. She was so responsive, accommodating, and budget friendly. They ensured that setup was done before the party started, and tear down happened after guests had left-- and timely too. There were so many compliments from adults and smiles from the littles. Highly recommend to all parents!

Thaisha was super responsive to questions and kept in communication before the event. Their prices are so reasonable; my aunt in the Bay Area had to pay twice the amount I did for a similar setup! My package included vinyl name personalization for only $10 extra which I thought was a nice touch. Thaisha and her husband arrived right on time for setup and set the play area up quickly. I was impressed with all that was included with the play area and how spacious it was; it was perfect for our indoor venue. The littlest party guests ranged in age from infants to kindergarteners and all the kids had a great time! It was a relief knowing the kids had a safe area to play that could somewhat keep them contained so they couldn't get hurt. It also provided a great place for my kiddos to play while we cleaned up after the party. They arrived right on time to break down the equipment and take it back. Whenever I throw another kids' party I will most definitely book with this awesome company again; and recommend it to all my North County mom friends!

We were very picky, but she had patience with our process and showed us multiple iterations until we felt comfy, which we SO appreciated.

On our big day Heather and her team took care of everything! We didn't need to think about anything except marrying one another (and our coordinated first dance ). Heather is very sweet and reassuring which helped put us at ease. She even won over our 4 yr old nephew who can be difficult, and he did a great job as the ring bearer thanks to her!
