My husband and I were working with another planner prior to Korina , however we met through the referral of my photographer and it was the best decision for our wedding . From the initial phone conversation I knew I wanted to work with her because she was excited to make our vision her vision. Korina is based in the San Diego area but that did not stop her commitment to traveling to Hollywood for our wedding. She was contracted as a “day of coordinator”, but in all honesty her commitment and professionalism far exceeded one day. She was responsive to texts, phone calls, in person walks throughs, and dress rehearsals. We were truly grateful to provide all the details and have her tie it together with a bow. Truly, I couldn’t imagine our wedding day without her and her staff by our side. Thank you again Korina, I now have the wedding blues and miss planning everyday with you !

DJ Conner was absolutely amazing and my husband and I couldn't be happier with the dancing music and all the music played throughout the evening. He listened to our music needs, which were not the clearest at times, but nonetheless he came up with a great playlist that fit the diverse age range and what we were envisioning. It seemed that all the guests were dancing on the dance floor at some point in the evening. Just recently a guest from the wedding reached out commenting how Conner was the best wedding DJ they have ever heard. Conner brings a cool, sophisticated vibe that is truly great for all age demographics. Additionally, Conner was super professional, on time, and had state of the art sound equipment. He also did an incredible job micing the night and keeping the pace. The fact that I didn't want the night to end speaks volumes to how much I enjoyed our wedding and a big part of that was the music. Hiring the right DJ is one of the best wedding decisions we made and was also way more cost effective than a live band. To wrap this up, we are so thankful Conner decided to take his DJ talents to the wedding industry. I am sure his business will take off. Thank you Conner, we will always remember how you made our night so special and my brother's EPIC speech :)

Our team is dedicated towards telling your love story through our love of story-telling with film! Capturing your moment on camera is our specialty - your wedding day and our expertise is a match made in heaven. They say your wedding day passes by in a flash, we'll be there to capture your special moments to watch throughout the years.

TLDR: Hire Ryan, he’s worth every penny! I had roughly an 18 month engagement and I interviewed several videographers in the valley and I couldn’t find a good fit. I just stopped looking for like a year when I saw there was a new player in town: Ryan Films was at the bridal convention and his style was impeccable for what I was looking for. I reached out immediately and he was so responsive and nice. I already loved his style but his organization and communication were just godsends during our busy season. He sent us the proposed contracts and everything was done through a handy portal and he was great at reminding us for important dates or to dos and I feel like he really wanted to get a sense of what we were like as a couple. I loved his detailed emails because he mentioned things to do that I would have never thought about! And of course, day of, Ryan and his assistant were extremely friendly and great to work with. They worked well with my photographer and had great energy. The team together was amazing, I feel like I could have not chosen better vendors for our special day. Now the product itself (delivered very promptly after the wedding with expedited delivery) was immaculate. He has an amazing eye at capturing all the little things I’ve missed because the day flew by. When I saw people’s videos on their cellphone of the night, you can literally see Ryan and his assistant flying through the room catching the best views but it’s crazy because during the day of, I didn’t feel like his presence was distracting, he just seamlessly existed in the background while capturing magic! Overall, if you are in the market looking for a videographer, I highly suggest Ryan Films. I’m so happy I procrastinated for a videographer because the right one just wasn’t here yet!

I've been djing since I was 15 years old. I had a fascination for parties and events at an early age. I tagged along with my brother who dj'd at house parties back in the early 80's. I was hooked after seeing how much joy the music brought out in the crowd. I started buying my own 12" records, and it evolved into doing my own gigs: house parties, jr. high & high school dances, colleges, raves, underground parties, night clubs, weddings, corporate events, and so on. I started my DJ business in 1987, and have been honing my craft now for 3 decades. Thirty plus years later, I continue to love what I do. Now let's get the party started.

I had heard about this company from a co worker and I read all there reviews. I had Mike Zee as my DJ and he was awesome. His mixing skills are off the chart. We wanted a three hour dance party and he is an absolute beast. He crushed it, played our playlist and added so much fire and remixes. My family said they could barely walk the next day since they danced so hard!!! Mike n GE I can’t say enough about the job you did.

Angeline was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding. From the moment we met with her, we could tell she was incredibly passionate and committed to bringing our floral vision to life. She paid meticulous attention to every detail, creating a breathtaking asymmetrical floral arch, a cascading flower fountain, and arrangements that incorporated seasonal blooms in an artistic, ikebana-inspired style. The final results spoke for themselves - our guests were in awe of the beauty and creativity of the florals, which perfectly complemented the rest of our wedding theme. Angeline's own artistic flair made our wedding look unique and vibrant and beautiful. We couldn't recommend Flower Rush more highly.

To the best and most helpful wedding planner in San Diego. Jenna really helped me plan my wedding from the ground up. I was a person who never really dreamt about a dream wedding and knew nothing about planning one. Jenna was there holding our hands from day one helping us navigate and create the most magical and memorable night of our lives. From the big decisions of our venue to the minute details of the table settings she brought our dream night to life. If i tried planning this on my own i think i would have given up. She kept the timelines straight and kept us on schedule throughout the whole planning process. Then when it came to the big day she was a boss. Everything went off without a hitch. I would have to say this might be the best wedding we or any of our guests have attended. The love and gratefulness we have for Jenna is unmeasurable. And the team she surrounds herself and vendors she suggested were all top notch and came through better than expected!!

Because planning a wedding is a big deal, and a big investment, you'll want someone you can count on to take your hard work and make sure that all that time and effort pays off. With a wealth of resources available, I know that you may not need help every step of the way (and you don't want to pay for what you don't need!) so I offer foundational event management services designed to help common planning pitfalls with professional guidance. Instead of a "one size fits all" approach, I would love to work with you to create a bespoke wedding package fitted to your needs.

From the moment we booked Spark & Sage Events to coordinate our wedding, we knew we were in good hands. Amanda and her team were incredibly helpful, ultra communicative, consistent, and dependable throughout the entire planning process. Her attention to detail and clear communication style made our wedding day a low-stress experience. Amanda was SO attentive to guests, answered their questions, and managed vendor communications seamlessly. We also were able to have multiple meetings before the day, as well as for the rehearsal. She provided us with a list of amazing vendors and even lent us some additional items we could borrow on the day. It also felt very comforting that she not only got married at our venue (Scripps Seaside Forum), but also knew almost all of our vendors intimately from past weddings/events. Having access to AislePlanner and a venue planning site was such a game changer and helped us feel like we had a strong hold on the planning process. We truly received so many compliments from our guests about how smoothly everything ran. Spark & Sage Events provided high-value, affordable service, and I would recommend them time and time again to any couple looking for an experienced, dependable wedding coordinator!!

Let me start by saying that the Secret Garden and the Epic Coordination team made all of my wedding dreams come true! I recently got married at the Secret Garden on April 28th, 2024. It truly was the most magical day of my life not just because I was marrying my soulmate, but because of the amazing coordination team that made our vision come to life. It was the first venue that my husband and I looked at, and we immediately fell in love with it. We loved that it was a beautiful indoor and outdoor garden venue, but we also loved how they offered an all-inclusive wedding package. They have a list of recommended vendors, including DJ, caterer, florist, photography/videography, and so much more. They give you the option to choose a vendor that they don't have on their recommended list, but we did everything through them and I wouldn't have had it any other way. They really offer the best-of-the-best professionals that know exactly what they're doing. A special shoutout to our coordinator, Laura, for being so organized and making sure everything was perfect on our big day! When it came to the day of the wedding, the entire timeline flowed seamlessly. None of the guests were left waiting around or wondering what was going on because the coordination team was so on top of everything! Everyone at our wedding, including myself and my husband, had an amazing time. Another thing to mention was that the communication with the Secret Garden and their team was beyond excellent! Any question I had, they answered promptly and made sure that the planning process was seamless. I had an enjoyable experience planning our wedding thanks to the support from the Secret Garden and Epic team! To conclude, my wedding day at the Secret Garden was literally the happiest day of our lives! It couldn't have been more perfect. If you're envisioning a fairytale garden wedding like I was, choose this venue!

I'm in love with taking photos and I spend all of my time working on fine-tuning my photography but also getting deeper than just taking photos. I am taking photos with the purpose now more than ever. Its been my years of experience that has helped me develop my photography into art and not just a picture taker. From the moment I meet my clients, I want to know as much as I can. Getting closer to a client really transcends into the photographs I am taking of them and their special day.

Toby has done my daughter’s newborn photos and other Christmas time photos of our family. He always makes us feel so comfortable. Recently he did our family photos again and we tried a new venue - the beach. The outcome brought me to tears!

He has been playing & singing his entire life, has performed over 2,000 shows, and his balcony concert series has been featured on CBS, NBC and FOX.

From the moment we began planning our wedding, we knew that live music would be a centerpiece of our ceremony. We were incredibly fortunate to have Jeff as our musician and couldn't be more thrilled with the experience. Jeff brought a level of artistry that perfectly matched every moment with the ideal music. Beyond his exceptional skill, Jeff was a joy to work with. He was professional and ensured the music was tailored to our preferences. We received countless compliments from our guests, who were equally impressed, and the music was easily one of the highlights of our wedding. We wholeheartedly recommend Jeff to anyone looking to add an extraordinary touch to their special day.
