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.

Jeremy was especially helpful in coordinating arrival and pickup times, and he was very flexible in working through multiple quotes as our needs evolved while staying within our budget. The entire team was friendly, professional, and courteous throughout the process. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone planning an event.

We had a GORGEOUS wedding in March 2015 filled with love and NO stress! Yes like NO stress! However…read moreit took some quality vendors to make this happen. I could say without a doubt it would never had been stress free or run so smoothly without the huge help of Jessica and her wonderful team aka her daughters (amazingness runs in the family). We were on a mission to find vendors who were able to work with us on flexibility and responsiveness. After a search high and low, I stumbled on Jessica! She really set our minds at ease and was super responsive. Never took very long to answer any questions or concerns we had. Her line of communication was always open. She also has a "I'm not a push over attitude" which is what you need in a wedding coordinator. She will get your vendors in line if any step out of line or are slacking or needs to be done right away. These were all great signs so we decided to go with Jessica as our day of coordinator. We spoke multiple times about what we expected and she covered all the bases even ones we totally didn't think about. The day of the wedding, we felt in good hands and the proof was in the pudding. Walking into the ballroom, I was taken back! The centerpieces and decor exceeded my expectations. She went above and beyond. It all was perfectly placed and beautiful. At some point before the reception, there was a little miscommunication with the DJ but she made it a point to make sure he understood our vision and not what HE thought was best. She is also truly thoughtful. For example, when she grabbed my flats from my emergency bridal bag and handed them to me when taking pictures walking around the venue. She did it without me asking or discussing that I would desperately need my flats. Jessica and her team had our backs and we felt it. Shoutout to her beautiful daughters who are just as thoughtful and sweet. Thank you ladies! So if you are debating whether or not to use Jessica as a coordinator, let me make this decision easy for you. Pick up the phone and give her a call as she is wonderful to work with. Thank you Jessica and team..a million x100. We can't thank you enough. Jessica & Steven Tran

I told her my theme of what I wanted (Enchanted Garden) and gave her a couple Pinterest pic ideas and she just nailed it! My baby shower was absolutely incredible! It was so awesome that I changed the name from "baby shower" to "baby wedding" because it was the most beautiful baby shower I or my friends and family have ever seen or been too! She is very crafty and made everything by hand. Everything that was there was authentic and original. She really puts a lot of time and thought into everything she does, she even goes above and beyond expectations. AND I am NOT exaggerating that at all because my boyfriend is the WORST! picky, boojie, fancy "Everything has to be perfect" worse than a bride on her wedding day kind of man. Let's just say when we walked in and saw what Jess had done, his jaw dropped! My baby wedding was such a memorable experience and I definitely owe it all to Jessica, and I'm positive she will do the same for you whether it be your wedding or baby wedding or whatever it is she can plan for you. She will NOT disappoint you. Some photos were taken by Yrsina @ycphotographsd check out her IG for inquiries.

From the very beginning, both Robyn and Sarah made us feel completely supported and genuinely cared for. The wedding coordinating team at Ivory + Stone are truly incredible at what they do -- professional, understanding, calm under pressure, detail-oriented, and somehow always one step ahead of everything. When I say that Ivory + Stone Event Co. made our wedding vision come to life, that would be an understatement. They not only executed the wedding planning process perfectly, but helped make our wedding one of the most memorable days of our lives. Planning a wedding can feel overwhelming, but our Lead Wedding Planner, Sarah, made the entire experience feel so seamless! Sarah not only made sure that every detail reflected our vision perfectly, but her ability to keep everything running smoothly gave us so much peace of mind throughout the process. She is not only an amazing wedding planner, but was an incredible support and friend to us along the way! On the wedding day itself, Sarah and the Ivory + Stone team absolutely went above and beyond. Every detail was flawless, the timeline ran perfectly, and we were actually able to relax and fully enjoy our day because we knew we were in the best hands possible. Our wedding day could not have gone more perfectly because of the relationship we built with Ivory + Stone, and the love we felt from Sarah throughout the entire day! Finding a wedding planning team that you trust can feel overwhelming at the beginning, but I promise that choosing Ivory + Stone to plan your special day will be one of the best decisions you make. If you are looking for a wedding planner who genuinely cares and delivers an exceptional experience from start to finish, we cannot recommend Ivory + Stone enough. Robyn, Sarah, and the entire Ivory + Stone team are all absolute gems, and we are so beyond grateful for everything they did to help make our wedding unforgettable!

‼‼ DO NOT BOOK LILAC AND LACE AS YOUR WEDDING COORDINATORS ‼‼…read more We had Lilac and Lace @lilacandlacesd as our coordinators for our 10/11/2025 wedding in Orange County, CA. [For context: ~230 guests, Vietnamese-American wedding with 12pm Catholic mass ceremony + 5pm reception at a museum.] I hope and pray that no other bride/groom will experience the level of stress, frustration, and disappointment that we did on our wedding day. I will say that leading up to our wedding, our calls/texts with Ariana (owner) were helpful; it was the day-of services that failed us when we needed them most. Ariana notified us 9/29 via email that she needed to have surgery the following week and would be handing off our day to a different coordinator (Kez) and assistant, as well as providing another assistant for free - she assured us we were in good hands. (As a nurse, I completely understand prioritizing health and how difficult it is to get urgent surgeries scheduled, and fully agreed with Ariana that it was the right thing for her to do.) First, Kez and her team DID NOT SHOW UP TO OUR CEREMONY. Multiple logistical/crowd control issues occurred during/after our mass, which would have been prevented by the presence of a coordinator. Ariana states this was due to a miscommunication and took responsibility for this. The call time at the reception venue was 2pm, Kez did not arrive until 2:30pm and one of the assistants did not arrive until after 3pm (as 3pm is when my husband and I arrived on-site and we were informed by Kez that the other assistant was on her way.) The assistants never introduced themselves to us, I can't even tell you their names. When we arrived, Kez did not know about our outfit changes or where our grand entrances were from; this was covered in detail at our venue walkthrough (which was only attended by Ariana, and should have been communicated to Kez.) Other errors that occurred during the night: songs switched for parents' grand entrances (Kez then asked if we wanted our parents to reenter, obviously not as that would be extremely embarrassing and disruptive), our second grand entrance in our traditional attire not caught on photo/video because Kez did not notify them on time (again Kez asked if we wanted to reenter), Kez asking us if we were ready for the MC to announce cake cutting even though we wanted unannounced cake cutting , failure to announce last call on our late-night food truck so there was a lot of extra - the list goes on. Again, these were all covered in detail during planning calls and at the walk through. Ariana assured us that a coordinator/team member would be with us at all times during the reception - however, we could not find them at multiple points throughout the night. My MOH ended up coordinating the majority of the evening and handling communication with the coordinators, as I was on the verge of tears every time I had to see them. Kez and her two assistants spent nearly 20 min tying a ribbon onto our welcome sign (which we did not ask them to do), our photographer actually had to shoo them out of the background of a shot. Lilac and Lace's coordination packages also promised free content creation with raw photo/video and a real delivered within 72hrs of the event - we never received this. We sent a strongly worded email to the company, and received an apology response that was very emotional but did not take full accountability. We have received a 50% refund although we requested a FULL refund. If you have only one takeaway from this review, let it be this: Booking Lilac and Lace for our wedding was our greatest regret - their unprofessionalism, lack of accountability, and inability to coordinate RUINED our day. Please PLEASE book someone else to be your wedding coordinator - we wish we had. (Wish we had seen Denice M's Yelp review beforehand as her experience sounds eerily similar to ours) UPDATE: As of 1/26/26 we have received a thoughtful and sincere apology via email and the full refund.

On the wedding day itself, I never had to worry about a thing because I knew she had everything under control. Her strong working relationship with RBI was incredibly valuable throughout the planning process and made everything feel seamless. Since I'm not local to the San Diego area and didn't always have a clear vision of exactly what I wanted, Gina's recommendations and guidance were invaluable. Anytime I needed vendor suggestions, she immediately sent thoughtful recommendations, and whenever I wanted to dive deeper into details, she made it happen. We met in person multiple times leading up to the wedding weekend, and she helped bring all of the details together so beautifully. She was always available to answer texts or calls, which made the entire process feel so much less stressful. I really appreciated how Gina truly followed my lead and helped execute the vision we wanted. By the time the wedding weekend arrived, I didn't have to think twice about anything -- it all came together so perfectly, and it truly was the most wonderful weekend. I'm so grateful for everything Gina did to make our wedding such a special experience.

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.
