DJ Will is literally the best. He was so communicative and reached out multiple times to make sure he had the latest information. Our wedding was Indian fusion and he did such a great job considering our playlists and also adapting to the crowd. The energy on the dancefloor was insane - no one could leave because the music was too good. Literally the best decision and worth the value. He adjusted the package to make sure we got the best experience at the venue. Ceremony went off without a hitch and he took cues from the Indian priest very well. Professional timing and setup.

We booked with Ryan Films back in 2020 and had to make some pandemic changes. Ryan and his team did an amazing job capturing our ceremony. Fast forward to 2022, Ryan kept in touch and gather all up to date information for our postponed reception and made sure we were all set for our big day. We had the pleasure of having Zack and Brenda shoot all day and let me tell you, we received our sneak peak trailer 2 days after our wedding date and I cant explain the footage that they were able to capture without being all in your face. I literally barely saw them but when we did, direction was smooth, quick and so much fun! The drone footage Zack was able to get was the icing on the cake. We have already received so much positive feedback on how our trailer came out. If we come back with a 3rd wedding celebration we will most definitely be booking with Ryan Films! Thanks team!

Conner was absolutely amazing! Every single one of our guests and venue staff complimented the music and just his overall attitude. He kept the party going and made sure that everyone was enjoying themselves. He also made sure that us (the couple) had eaten and got drinks, and helped our coordinator with any tasks she needed as well.

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.

Hi! My name is Ayleen and I have been a makeup artist for 5 years. In my few years of experience I have been able to learn a lot from working in photoshoots, along with other artists and at countless weddings. From my first bridal makeup I’ve done on a close friend, I knew that’s what I wanted to do as my job. It took a few years to build my career and I am so glad I chased after my dream of becoming a bridal makeup artist. My favorite part of what I do is being able to be a part of such a special day in your life and there’s nothing that makes me happier than making girls feel their best.

Ayleen is so professional and her work is amazing. After meeting a couple times for trials and day of wedding, I learned that she takes so much pride in her work and the end results are stunning. She made me feel and look so beautiful on my wedding day

Thanks for visiting Breezy Day, we are so happy you are here! We are a sister team in San Diego, committed to helping you make your engagement & wedding day a breeze! WE CANNOT WAIT TO GET TO KNOW YOU!

I used both the wedding coordination and floral services from Breezy Day and both services went above and beyond, making our wedding day perfect. Courtney was our wedding coordinator and she made the process so much easier. I was so stressed about the wedding planning process until I met Courtney, I wonder if we would have even had a wedding if I didn’t meet her to be honest! From the initial phone call, she explained the wedding planning process and reassured me that we could have a great wedding within our limited budget. She had a list of vendors she recommended which I picked all of my vendors from and it made the process of selecting vendors so much easier. Courtney was always able to help answer my questions throughout the whole year of planning and always responded in a timely manner. Then, on the day of the wedding, Courtney made the entire day so smooth and it went just as planned. I cannot recommend Courtney and the wedding day of coordinator services more. I don’t know what I would have done without her! The florals from Breezy Day Weddings were also incredible. They were more beautiful in person then I even expected. I chose the a la carte options from the Shoppe and the florals were so beautiful. Heather was great and very responsive when I asked questions about the process. The florals were seamlessly delivered to the venue on the day of the wedding and Courtney set the centerpieces on the table for me and placed the florals on the cake and it was so stunning. The service from both the day of coordination services and the florals were 10 out of 10! I cannot recommend them enough. They were affordable, professional, efficient, friendly, reassuring, and just amazing all around. If you’re getting married, you need to hire them for your wedding! Thank you again, Courtney and Heather!

From the moment I spoke to Carolyn during our initial phone consultation, I was filled with ease and knew she was the person I could trust in the process of coordinating our special day! Carolyn’s calming and positive demeanor was such a Godsend in the otherwise overwhelming process of making many small decisions leading up to the big day. Communication with Carolyn was such a breeze and she was available through text and several phone call meetings where we would talk through ideas and details. I shared my ideas with her, and she immediately understood my vision and helped so much in executing everything we wanted in our wedding day and more. Carolyn coordinated with our vendors on the month of the wedding to ensure that everyone was on the same page. She helped our day flow so effortlessly and even between several locations from the hotel where we got ready, to the church for our ceremony, to our reception venue, and eventually after party. She added personal touches to the experience that were so special to us. Carolyn is truly such a joy to work with and made us feel so cared for during the whole wedding experience. We were in the best hands. We highly recommend Fête Events to anyone looking for a wedding planner who combines professionalism with a personal touch. Her dedication and expertise ensured that our day was nothing short of perfect, leaving us free to enjoy every moment without worry. Carolyn exceeded our expectations in every way, and we couldn't have asked for a better partner to help bring our dream wedding to life.

We had DJ Jimmy Grizzley as our DJ. We had met him at the bridal bazar in Del Mar and we could tell he was all business from how he was dressed. He made a great first impression with us and after we had a phone consultation we booked his services. He has a very easy system to work with regarding music selections and he even helped provide us with some guidance. He was in communication with our coordinator and they were on the same page for all the details of our wedding. When our big day rolled around we definitely had some things we were worried about however he was not one of them. My family is all about partying and dancing, and we have a diverse group. Jimmy crushed it with the grand entrance and as soon as the key moments were done, we were ready to party. He straight up crushed it. He played the majority or our list and worked in a few surprise tracks and even some Latin ones for my hispanic people! Bottom line was it was lit, and his mixing skills are off the chart. Hire this man if you want the wedding of a life time!

As your Wedding Planner, our mission at Amor Atelier is to help you enjoy the wedding planning process while we focus on perfecting each and every detail for your wedding. We partner with you to capture the essence of your personal style, honor your once-in-a-lifetime love story, and celebrate life’s most remarkable moments. We believe you deserve a wedding planner by your side who is truly invested in going above and beyond to make your dreams come true.

When I got engaged, I truly believed I'd be able to handle the details for my wedding. I'm an accomplished business owner who is capable of handling alllllllllll the details. As I started planning my wedding I very quickly realized that 1) planning a wedding was very much out of my skill set 2) I didn't enjoy the process and 3) investing in a wedding planner was the best use of my time, energy, and focus. I wanted to spend the months leading up to my wedding enjoying the time - and not stressing about flowers, invitations, and cake. It was a divine intervention when I found Olivia and Amor Atelier Wedding Planning & Design. Right away Olivia and I bonded and I truly loved her energy and clear professionalism. It was obvious to me that she loves her job and truly wants to provide the best service possible. During our first reception planning meeting with our venue, Olivia took charge with a calm confidence that allowed me to sit back and focus on the big decisions, without having to deal with the small stuff. I loved that Olivia leads while also remains flexible and supportive. It was clear that she wanted my wedding to be what I wanted, and had no personal ulterior motives. She was there to support ME so that I could love the experience. Our wedding day was magical without any glitches or issues at all - ALL because of Olivia and her team. Throughout my wedding day I knew Olivia and her team had my back so that I was able to relax and focus on each minute with our guests. Investing in a wedding planner felt like a big spend for us, but it was worth every single penny. I hope you'll give yourself the gift of space a freedom during your wedding process by allowing Olivia and her team to support you. This is a once-in-a-lifetime experience that you can't ever get back, or do again. My wish for every bride is to focus on the moments of your special days, and let Olivia free you from the details. When I think of Olivia and her team, I think: professional, supportive, detail-oriented, and truly committed to the utmost importance and meaning of a wedding. Olivia is lovely. I hope you get the opportunity to be supported by her and her amazing team.

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 fill in the gaps with professional guidance and still remain reasonably priced. 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 and budget!

Oh Amanda and her team! There’s no right words to describe how AMAZING, professional, Kind and helpful Amanda and her team at spark and sage. They concurred our wedding day with such ease! She hustled so much for much and not did it show! Everything went so beautifully and smoothly. Not only do my husband and I thank her for all the hard work she’s done for us, but so do my family and friends. They all raved how amazing she was. She is such a beautiful soul. Amanda, from the bottom of our hearts, you deserve the world. You have the most incredible thing going on for you! Almost makes me want to have another wedding you can plan! We have recommended you to everyone we know who is engaged! We can’t thank you enough. If anyone is looking or unsure about whether to book Spark and Sage, do not hesitate. Do not! You’ll be making the biggest mistake if you don’t go to her! With that being said, 10 out 5 stars for you. We will miss you so much. Thank you Amanda for everything and giving us our dream wedding.

I do wedding and event flowers. From bridal bouquets to centerpieces to arbor to installations, I do them all. All customized to your taste and style. To make sure your vision and vibes come to life. Flowers have always been my thing.

Angeline was an absolute pleasure to work with! Her prices were much more reasonable than some other quotes we got, and she went ABOVE AND BEYOND. We gave her some inspiration photos but trusted her to really complete the vision of the florals and I couldn’t be happier. She helped along the way with suggestions of other decor too. Our florals were so bright and beautiful and really set the mood for our spring wedding! And my bouquet was stunning!

Jeff Jacobs, Singer/Guitarist/Pianist

  • Solo performer
  • Starts at $750
  • Serves La Mesa, CA

Jeff Jacobs is a multi-talented guitarist, pianist, singer, songwriter. His performing is likened to that of Jason Mraz & Billy Joel. 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.

We are Sugar and Plum! We’re a boutique wedding planning company specializing in day-of coordination. With a keen understanding of wedding expenses, we aim to keep our services budget-friendly without compromising on quality. Our passion lies in the details, organization, and ensuring your wedding day flows seamlessly.

I lived out my Fairytale Wedding thanks to Stacy, Jaida, and Jayzle! I didn't meet Stacy until the day before my wedding at the rehearsal but everything leading up to that day was exactly what we needed. Her almost immediate responses and being easily available was super comforting for being a Type-A Bride. It was difficult for me to hire a wedding planner because I had a hard time letting go of all the control during the wedding planning process. She relieved so much stress from my life from managing vendors, reviewing contracts, reminding me of payments due, organizing the decor, and creating the most detailed timeline ever. After we met in person, we instantly clicked and it's like we've known her forever. Stacy, Jaida, and Jayzle were there from start to finish - Stacy was with me at all times, Jaida was at the Ceremony and Jayzle was at the Reception. The three of them together worked harmoniously to ensure our wedding was nothing short of perfection. Stacy is so detailed and is truly a trained professional in wedding planning. We had the best stress-free day, and it was because we hired the best wedding planner ever! Side note, hire her for wedding day styling too. It's such a small feat but definitely worth it. She'll steam your dress and help you in it while making sure your dress looks flawless during photo time. Thank you, Sugar and Plum!

Joanne and Jamie were easily one of my favorite vendors for my wedding. I got married April 7, 2024 and had my hair trial on February 3. I found Joanne’s company through one of my Instagram friends, who also got her hair done with them. I was immediately taken with them for two reasons: 1) They had no minimum person requirement 2) they were so so so quick in their email communications (something I found was super rare when looking for hairstylists). Immediately upon visiting for the trial, I knew I was in good hands. They were both so sweet and really took into consideration my preferences, veil & dress, and venue when making suggestions. I felt so comfortable with them (and they even gave me some tea!). On the day of the wedding, Jamie arrived promptly at our getting ready location and was quite efficient and effective in doing my hair. I never was worried that my hair would fall out during the wedding and the fact that I never once thought about my hair all night is a testament to how well it was done. And as I look back on my photos, I constantly look at my hair, impressed by how well it stayed curled and beautiful all day (even as I danced for 2 hours straight). I could never recommend Joanne and Jamie more for your big day.

My husband and I want to thank Stephany and her assistant Annie for all the attention given to us on our magical day. Our favorite part of working with Stephany was that she is extremely friendly and funny. Which honestly made us feel comfortable from the day we met, to every meeting that we had before the wedding day. We would recommend Stephany and Annie to family and friends. They are professional, friendly, and most important patient. Not once did we sense they felt overwhelmed or stressed about anything. Which definitely gave us peace of mind knowing everything was under control by them both. We are also thankful that Stephany and Annie went above and beyond for our magical day. We only hired a photographer, but without us asking Stephany and Annie ensured to capture many special moments during the event. Such as us walking down the aisle, dancing with our moms, and getting funky on the dance floor.

I have been officially working as a professional wedding planner since 2017. My love of all things weddings and events began at an early age. I worked at a country club in the summers before my freshman and sophomore year of college, I worked on the food and beverage staff which included being a banquet server, and can you guess which was my favorite shift to work, you guessed it, the weddings. Once I got to the point in my life where my friends were starting to get engaged and I was a bridesmaid in their weddings, I found myself taking on extra duties and wanting to be more involved that it hit me, I need to pursue being an event planner.

I can't say enough great things about Miranda and her team! From our first conversation, we immediately connected with her and she already felt like a friend. She quickly understood our vision for our wedding and what was important to us. She encouraged us to make it very personal and unique--she never shot down any weird ideas we might've had but also brought an experienced perspective, while also keeping us on track with all of the little details and scheduling. She was so well-organized and professional while also keeping things stress-free, light, and fun. There were no questions too big, too small, or too personal with all the drama that can come with such a big event. Miranda was easy to reach via text/email, and took the initiative to reach out and schedule check-ins when needed to make sure we stayed on track with the huge to-do list that comes with a wedding. Her vendor recommendations & other suggestions were awesome, but she also respected a couple of the areas where we found our own vendors with no questions asked. She truly helped us get every detail settled, down to the napkins and our catering order details. She took all the stress off once we got to the month of and leading up to the wedding day, confirming with our vendors so we didn't have to worry about it whatsoever. Our wedding day went seamlessly thanks to her--it sounds cliche but it was the most fun and beautiful day ever and we were able to really enjoy it thanks to Miranda. We couldn't have asked for a better planner and I would recommend her to anyone getting married in the SD area! She also helped us with signage for the day-of and did a beautiful job at a super reasonable price.

Hello and Welcome! I'm Lily, a dedicated and enthusiastic event planner on a mission to turn your celebrations into unforgettable experiences. Armed with a Project Management Professional (PMP) certification, I possess the expertise to seamlessly manage all aspects of your wedding, ensuring that every detail assigns with your vision and goals.

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.

I’ve been happily married for almost 27 years. I have three awesome sons. My parakeets Kiwi and Sparky are very social, meaning very loud! Champagne (maybe that’s why I love weddings) and sushi lover here! Photography has been my passion ever since my dad gave me my first film camera and introduced me to the dark room at age of 10. I lived in Japan for 12 years, and even performed on a stage there. I’m always up for a great road trip! I love tuna fishing. I love hats and want to wear them everyday (over 20 hats in my collection). I’ve been shooting beautiful weddings for almost 10 years. I secretly cry at every wedding.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Irina and Carlsbad Photo for our wedding photography, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. From the very beginning, Irina was professional, responsive, and easy to work with. She took the time to understand our vision for the day and helped us create a timeline that would ensure we captured all the important moments. On the day of the wedding, Irina arrived early and was ready to go. She worked quickly and efficiently to capture all the details, from the getting ready process to the ceremony and reception. She even managed to get some great shots of our first dance and all the dancing that followed, which we absolutely love. When we received our photos back, we were blown away. They are absolutely stunning and perfectly capture the joy and love of our special day. We especially love the candid shots that capture all the emotions of the day. We would highly recommend Irina and Carlsbad Photo to anyone looking for a talented and professional wedding photographer. She is truly amazing at what she does, and we are so grateful that she was a part of our special day.
