    Lily and her Team Slay Events were a fantastic choice for our wedding planning. From the very beginning, their communication was punctual, organized, and friendly. They were incredibly detail-oriented and organized throughout the entire planning process, which put us at ease. When a few unexpected hiccups came up on the day, the Slay Events team thought fast and seamlessly resolved the issues, ensuring our wedding day was perfect. Their dedication to delivering a high-quality, valuable experience was evident in every aspect of our special day. We got so many compliments from friends and family about how organized the whole wedding experience was. None of this would've been possible without Lily and her team. We are so grateful to Slay Events for helping make our wedding dreams a reality!

    Slay Events (Lily) was the absolute BEST wedding planner we could have ever dreamed of. From our very first interaction, we knew we couldn't have made a better choice. Her communication style is professional, prompt, and personalized - we always felt as though we were her top priority (and that she enjoyed having us in that position). The quality of her work is simply unmatched. Lily is knowledgable, adaptable, innovative, elite, thorough, and has a beautifully thoughtful approach to every detail. Every aspect of our wedding day felt elegant, effortless and enjoyable. I could go on for days about how incredible Lily is. She quickly became a very close friend that we love having in our lives post wedding day. She is an incredible listener and curator. Lily took care of us and our wedding as if it were her own, ensuring the flow and schedule of what can be an insanely hectic day was executed flawlessly. She is undoubtedly a star on the rise and we can't wait to see how she will continue to grow and expand her business. The respect and admiration we have for her is unmatched!

    I immediately loved Lily. I met her at a bridal bazaar that I really only went to for fun. I had the majority of my vendors locked in, but going to bazaars is part of the fun during engagement! Lily was amazing throughout our entire process. She is the most thorough and detail-oriented person I think I've ever met, and she does it all while smiling and finding humor in everything. Planning a wedding is very stressful, but with Lily, I really didn't notice much. I felt like she wanted to get to know us on a personal level, and we bonded over our love for T-Swift during our months of planning. She really is a gem, and I can't imagine how our day would have went if not for her. 1000/10 recommend. The only sad part is now that it's over, I'll never have the chance to work with her again lol We loved you Lily, thank you for making our vision come to life.

    There are a lot of wedding industry people that I've had the pleasure of getting to know and Slay Events with Lily stands out. These are the traits that you will find in her and her group: 1. Detail Oriented - SO SO much detail goes into a memorable wedding and Lily is the kind of person to ensure that EVERY detail is accounted for, allowing you to relax and ENJOY the experience. I've seen several couples OVERJOYED with her team on their wedding day because every detail was taken care of. 2. Charming - Here's a hidden truth about the industry -- as a vendor, it pays to be magnetic and charming because it greases the wheels and makes things happen. If you look tired, unfriendly, and unreliable, no one will want to work with you. HOWEVER, if you are positive, well put together, and professional, then vendors, coordinators, and caterers take you seriously and will work well with you. This means getting all the puzzle pieces to the perfect wedding in place on your special day. Lily's company is not only respected by the clients she works with but also among those in the wedding industry. For myself as and wedding venue, I breath a sigh of relief whenever I hear that Lily is on the job. Her magnetic personality is a perfect fit as So Cal's premier wedding coordinator. 3. Hard Working - Lily goes that extra mile to make sure the lead up to your special day is worry free and enjoyable as possible. My tell tale sign of a good coordinator is that on wedding day, they are BUSY and COMMUNICATING. Lily is a buzz of activity, directing the couple and their families, and staying in touch with vendors and caterers. She understands that she is the linchpin who ensuring that the day is a success. Highly HIGHLY recommend Slay Events.

    See all

We've never planned a…read morelarge event before, and most of our family and friends lived in different states making it hard for them to help us plan our dream wedding. Lacking crucial wedding industry knowledge, and working full-time quickly made us realize we needed help! We met with several wedding planners, who were all great, but once we met Lisa we knew she was the one! Lisa immediately felt like family, someone you could trust, someone who listened and asked all the right questions. She always has your best interest in mind and is always there to remind you that everything will be okay. We selected the "wedding planning assistance" package because we truly needed all the help we could get! I would HIGHLY recommend this package to anyone because wedding planning is truly a marathon and Lisa is your coach during the whole process. She helps you sort out all the details that you don't even realize you need to think about. Right away, she came up with a game plan that prioritized our budget. She recommended vendors who, on our wedding day, delivered top-tier service. She is well-connected within the San Diego wedding industry and is beloved by these vendors, and I understand why. She attended vendor meetings with us and made sure the vendors understood our vision all while remaining cost-conscious. Did I mention she helped us stay within our budget?! Bailey and I frequently communicated with Lisa, asking her all kinds of questions. She responded quickly and offered incredible advice when we were torn between certain decisions. Lisa is so positive, always smiling, and constantly reassures you that your special day will turn out beautiful. AND IT WILL, in large part, due to her execution on the day of. Wedding planning isn't just Lisa's business, it goes deeper than that - it's her passion. During the whole planning process, we felt just how much she cared about making our wedding day special for us. Bailey and I agree that our wedding day was the best day of our lives! Everything flowed so smoothly, she made sure we stuck to the timeline all while ensuring we did not miss special moments with our guests. She is a people person who knows how to execute a timeline and tie all the small details together. We cannot recommend Lisa enough!!

Lisa was the second coordinator I interviewed and after meeting with her I knew I wanted to go with her based on her experience and ease she carried. My husband and I got married at The Darlington House in La Jolla and she was one of a few that were highly recommended, and it was the best decision ever! I am an extremely organized and scheduled person, so when I met Lisa I was instantly at ease. She was so friendly and so organized that I knew our wedding was in good hands. Lisa was also there for me with answers to any of my questions and a couple weeks before the big day when we met, she had everything laid our perfectly. She really helped bring my visions to life with her attention to detail. She knew exactly the aesthetic and vibe I was going for and really helped tie up any loose ends. The day of our wedding could not have gone more perfect! There wasn't a single thing I would have changed and just so grateful for Lisa and her team to make the whole day run so smoothly. Lisa it was truly a blessing to have worked with you, thank you!!!

Kimberly took the time to sit down with us and our wedding planners to ensure her vision matched not only what we had pictured for our wedding day but also what our planner was putting together. She brings a relevant style that doesn't surrender classical beauty for current fads. Her ability to provide florals for an immense variety of locations and needs is a testament to her skill and eye for design. Not only did she handle classic bouquets, center pieces, and boutonnieres, she also created beautiful flower boxes and a wonderful floral piece for the wood house we were married under. We highly recommend Kimberly for any wedding (or other event!) in Southern California.

She is absolutely amazing at being a wedding florist. Also, she's super sweet and easy to talk to. I told her the style I liked and she did the rest. Our wedding was beautiful. Much to my surprise she is very competitively priced without having to negotiate. I spoke with many florists trying to find the right one within our budget. I found Kimberly and thanked the other florists I spoke to for their time. They would email me back saying they could give me a lower price. Ok, why didn't you give me that price to begin with? Anyway, Kimberly is such a gem. She gave me a good price from the beginning, and I think that says a lot about her character. Check her out on Instagram. She has beautiful pictures of her work.

She knew when to ramp up our frequency of meetings and she also knew when to tell us to relax and not worry about stuff. We like that she comes with the aisle planner software and lets us access it. She provided a thorough checklist for us with indications of when an item on the list should be completed by. She was very accessible and we knew we could count on her to respond quickly even if our question was not urgent. As our florist in addition to our planner, she helped a lot with some last-minute florals that we wanted to do and made sure everything happened very smoothly. When we couldn't find any freshly squeezed juice near me Melissa was eager to help and make sure we had that by the time of the wedding. Everyone was impressed at how quickly the venue was able to transform between the different stages of the wedding and how knowledgeable Melissa was. We really appreciated about how Melissa joined us in our vendor meetings and kept in touch with them for us. We definitely would've gotten overwhelmed if we did not have Melissa.

The reception hall of my wedding allowed a 4 hour window the day prior to drop off items and begin setup and their delivery drivers worked with the schedule and was there right when the hall was opened for us to setup. I also only had a 30 minute window for the hall to be unlocked for me the morning after the event for the chairs to be picked up and their drivers worked with my schedule. I was considering renting a box truck to pick up the rentals to waive the delivery fee but after seeing how large the load was and how hard the two delivery drivers worked, the delivery fee was 100% worth it and their two drivers did a phenomenal job. They did not have all of the chairs we wanted in their inventory on my event day so they subleased the remainder from another rental company for a very reasonable fee. They took care of the sublease for the additional chairs behind the scenes and it was so smooth that I wouldn't of have known it was subleased. All of the chairs were a perfect match and made all the difference in the overall setup of our wedding.
