Sam was absolutely spectacular in coordinating the reception for our wedding. She went through great lengths to ensure that all the details of the venue (Eden Oaks Ranch) exceeded the vision we had. Sam provided wonderful guidance to build out an appropriate timeline with flexibility for unexpected bumps in the road. She was also fantastic in providing us with shopping lists of supplies we would need to provide for a well-rounded bar selection, which would be enough for our guests to enjoy during the entire event. Sam made sure to coordinate all the vendors and staff like an orchestra, which allowed us to have a great time at our wedding. Overall, Sam has several years of experience in the wedding planning/coordinating industry and she really brought her A-game to show it. My husband and I are truly grateful to have found Sam for our wedding, she is a gem!

I can’t say enough good things about Courtney. She made not just our day, but last few months of planning not only stress free, but FUN! She was quick to answer any questions, at any time, and never once made me feel like I was an inconvenience! Texting her made me feel like I was texting a friend. She met every moment with kindness, ease, and an even keeled temperament that was SO incredible appreciated by everyone! On the big day she was joined in our joys, and had every moment handled with ease. Also, our plates and drinks were never empty. She paid the most attention to us, what we wanted and needed, but also kept everything moving in a timely manner. It truly was the best day ever…I wouldn’t change one thing…and I know it was due to Courtney’s professionalism and commitment to our day! I would recommend her to ANYONE planning a wedding.

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.

At JCDesigns, we believe wedding planning should be fun and stress-free. Your engagement should be filled with celebrations of your love with family and friends—not worrying about your to-do list. Our goal is to bring your vision to life on your wedding day by incorporating personal details and unique touches that showcase your love story and express who you are as a couple. Our passion is creating and facilitating the perfect event, where everything looks stunning, runs smoothly, and my couple and their guests not only enjoy themselves to the fullest, but experience something truly special and memorable!

I was trying to cut corners on wherever I could as Weddings are just outrageously expensive. My venue required a coordinator, so I looked and reached out to a few. Most never responded to me or were just way too expensive. Finding Jenna was meant to be. She really made me realize how valuable a wedding coordinator is and above all how valuable she was to us. Jenna made all of the difference with how smoothly planning went amd how the day rolled out. I didn't have to worry about a thing because Jenna literally took care of it all - set up, pick up, making sure everyone was where they were supposed to be, and so much more that I am likely unaware of. She is extremely professional and on top of it all and my husband I highly recommend her. All of our guests commented on how smooth the wedding went and for us was nearly stress free. Thank you Jenna!

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!!

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.

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.

We service San Diego, Santa Barbara, Palm Springs, Temecula, Santa Ynez, Los Angeles, Orange County, and beyond.

Where do I even start!? Bryce completely blew us away! As the groom, I’ll admit, I went into wedding planning with the mindset of “we’ve got this, we can handle it all.” I was honestly hesitant about hiring a planner because I didn’t fully understand what they did. I quickly learned that I also did not know what it took to elevate a wedding from “just nice” to one where every single guest felt special, pampered and truly taken care of, from the jaw-dropping decor to the flawless floor plan. Bryce absolutely exceeded all expectations. She was incredibly patient and attentive to every single idea my wife and I threw her way. Bryce came to each meeting so prepared, calm and confident that we completely trusted her judgment and execution. Her organizational skills were top-notch, every action item was clear, graciously presented and backed with kindness. We felt like she was our champion, advocating for us with vendors and even the venue! And the best part? She made us feel like we were her only clients throughout the entire process. If you're planning a wedding in Southern California, you simply have to work with Bryce! Months after our wedding, my wife is still reaching out to her for random advice.

Detailed, organized, friendly, and just an overall wonderful human being. We hired Karen for 2-month coordination and right off the bat, she was such a thoughtful planner and her willingness to guide us through anything and everything was amazing. I love a good spreadsheet and Karen has the best!!! Every meeting with her was so productive and we left each one with clear next steps/homework. The day of the wedding, everything went SO smoothly. Karen and her team took care of setting up all of our decor and they did so beautifully! When I arrived to the venue and saw everything, I was taken aback by how stunning everything looked — we had a mix of florals, candles, and fruit for our decor so getting everything set up was no small feat. Karen’s creative eye flawlessly brought my vision to life and I am so so grateful! Outside of decor, Karen’s organization, vendor communication, and speedy cleanup at the end of night was top-notch. We were able to truly enjoy the night, knowing Karen was there. She even took fun videos of the reception on my phone, which were great to watch the morning after to help relive the night :’) Literally each one of my vendors raved about how much they loved working with Karen — if that’s not enough to convince you to hire her for your next event, idk what is!

I first met Dre on a wedding we were both booked as vendors at in La Jolla, CA. The wedding was one of the best planned and executed that I had ever seen and it was clear why - Dre. Dre’s clear and proactive communication leading up to the events I’ve had with her sets her apart from other planners I’ve worked with. Her attention to detail, and ability to predict problems before they arise - and the fact she already has plans around any potential problems - makes events with Dre enjoyable as a vendor - but also for everyone in attendance as there is never a moment of panic or stress at any weddings I’ve done with Dre. Highly recommend Dre if you’re looking for a planner who will care just as much about your big day as you do! (She might even even care more than you!) 10/10 recommend for any wedding in San Diego / Southern California!

You’re Invited Events is a wedding coordination & event planning company started by besties, Bre & Jenna, founded in the beautiful city of San Diego in 2016. From the day we first met, we both knew we had a lifelong dream of creating our very own event company. After working together as event coordinators since 2010, we decided to finally pursue our dream.

Awarded Best of Zola
Bre and Jenna may have been the main reason our wedding day was the best day of our lives. They are extremely organized, great at communicating, very prepared, very detail oriented, and so easy and fun to work with. I run a lot of smaller events for an alcohol company so I have the tendency to triple check on things just to make 100% sure nothing falls through the cracks, and they had to keep reminding me they had everything covered, and they absolutely did. They literally think of everything for you! Because of them, I felt the most amazing, calm feeling all day. I was really able to enjoy the beauty of my wife, the day, and all of our friends and family around us with zero distractions. Also, the value of having two coordinators for a similar price to 1 was such a game changer. Thank you Bre and Jenna for making us feel like we were working with our good friends to co-create such a perfect, beautiful day. Can't imagine there are better wedding coordinators out there!

We are a full-service wedding and event planning company dedicated to once-in-a-lifetime celebrations. Let I Do… make your vision a reality. Whether you’re planning an intimate affair or an elaborate celebration; you deserve to have a coordinator that will be there with you you every step of the way. We will assist in keeping you organized, and ensure that even the smallest of details do not get overlooked. Our coordinators will advise you in designing, organizing, and executing your event, while making sure your style and personality are at the forefront.

Where to even begin! Jill Hudgins was our wedding planner/saint for the 8 months leading up to our wedding. When I say I can’t imagine how any of our big day would have been possible without her - I absolutely mean it. We knew from our first introductory call with Jill that she was going to be such a great partner and friend through the process. She was thoughtful, organized, and brought the best energy to every detail! When it came time to find and vet vendors, she actually ended up saving us quite a bit of money by either finding identical less expensive vendors or by reviewing contracts and removing unnecessary charges. The real magic happened during the week of our wedding and we needed some emergency rentals - Jill came through with some contacts and got it immediately sorted for us. I got so many compliments on how relaxed I seemed on my wedding day and it was because I knew Jill had my back and everything was going to be perfect. I cannot recommend Jill Hudgins enough. I already miss working with her and I know she will elevate any couple and wedding she works with in the future. Do not miss the chance to partner with such a great planner! Thank you, Jill!

Our biggest desires are that you and your partner have the BEST day and a celebration that represents what you love most as a couple.

Awarded Best of Zola
I can say without a doubt that I would not have made it through the wedding planning process without Kristi. It was obvious from the start that she has plenty of expertise in this area and she offered her advice in a gentle, non-judgemental manner. For instance, my fiance liked the idea having the ceremony in a particular location followed by an immediate conversion into the reception area after the ceremony; Kristi calmly and kindly explained that this endeavor was harder than it looked and helped us brainstorm different options. She never once made my fiance or me feel that any of our ideas were trivial or stupid; she listened with excitement and spoke with encouragement while also knowing when and how to point out the pros and cons of pending decisions. She went above and beyond in every way possible: when it was clear that family drama was taking its toll on me, Kristi offered numerous times to be the point of contact for a certain family member so as to take stress away from me. I hope I did not take too much advantage of that as it felt like I was using her as a scapegoat. From engagement to leaving the reception, Kristi was patient and kind and was an absolute delight. Her capacity to keep all of the numerous details straight and to recall them instantly was mind-boggling and to boot, she did it all with a calm, unflappable demeanor. I don't think I will ever be able to thank her enough for all she did.

Kristin Watkins is the joyful, energetic and detail-obsessed lead event designer at Stephanie Rose Events. Her impeccable reputation for creating memorable guest experiences attracts local and destination clients like you. Specializing in nontraditional venues, Kristin has transformed barns, museums, airplane hangars and private homes into one-of-a-kind luxury destinations. As a native San Diegan, she knows the city intimately and works with the best local vendors. With an incurable case of wanderlust, she has traveled to 19 countries and all 50 States. And as a mom to 2 sons and a cancer survivor, there isn’t much she can’t handle.

Kristin at Stephanie Rose Events was excellent from start to finish. We did not have a lot of prior knowledge of our chosen wedding city (San Diego) and actually were living across the country at the time. As such, we purchased the full service package from Kristin. Even before we spent a single cent, Kristin provided us with several recommendations for wedding venues, and several pieces of advice regarding our specific needs around having a Catholic wedding. Once we got into wedding planning, Kristin was extremely helpful with finding us an ideal church, reception venue and date. She set up several visits for us, and aside from that provided helpful advice for each venue. In a similar vein, when we chose our vendors, Kristin had a ready-made list for every vendor we'd need, - her advice and expertise literally saved us thousands of dollars in florals and food. For the actual day itself, Kristin was pretty much everywhere ensuring things were done correctly, and it was an incredibly smooth experience. I can only wish that I did her justice in my toast. Everyone generally needs a planner for their wedding, but we would like to highlight Kristin's service as invaluable. She was communicative, helpful and professional from start to finish, and is a true expert in the field. We would fully recommend her skills for anyone planning a wedding!
