Stephanie Wooding (Owner / Lead Planner) When it comes to planning your event, it’s really about how that person (or team) embraces and uses that job experience in a resourceful and creative way. I’m a practical, organized, creative, resourceful, and resilient, “jeans and t-shirt” type chick. Well, the San Diego part of me is anyway. The LA in me is a driven, problem-solving, A-type, “take no guff” lady boss, that gets the job done on time, and within a realistic budget.

Stephanie kept me on track, she helped me make sure things were done when they were supposed to! I honestly could not have had such a great wedding without her! I provided her with my vision and gave her creative license to make it happen and she delivered! The last month of wedding planning life threw us some curve balls and Stephanie was so kind to us during that challenging time. If you are not sure whether or not you need a wedding planner, you do. Let me tell you not having to worry about set up, clean up, timelines and who knows what else made my day a breeze as a bride. Also Bonus! I was able to use some of her items-I didn’t have to buy them!!

CONNER UNDERSTOOD THE ASSIGNMENT!! My husband and I gave him a few "must have" songs and explained the vibe/type of music we like- leaving him pretty much in charge of the playlist. HE NAILED IT. He played banger after banger making it impossible for myself and guests to leave the dance floor. He even included clips from some of the speeches that were given earlier in the evening. INCREDIBLE! I've had several people since, ask for his contact information to play future events! If you're looking for someone to keep the dance party flowing- call Conner! 5 STARS ALL THE WAY!

Ryan Films SD

  • Videographer
  • Cinematic style
  • Starts at $2,900
  • Serves Santee, CA

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.

Beauty By Ayleen

  • Beauty professional
  • Starts at $300
  • Serves Santee, CA

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
My mother and I did a trial with Ayleen prior to booking and immediately knew as soon as she arrived that she was our gal. She is so organized, very communicative, and just so talented. I also love that she continues to learn and improve her skills! During our trial, Ayleen first took the time to understand what our skin concerns were (mom having dry, aged skin and myself having oily skin). She took that information and did the appropriate skin prep to have our makeup stay on all day. My mom was absolutely blown away by her makeup and felt so beautiful! I ended up going with a look that turned out to be a bit too warm on my extra-pale skin, but Ayleen had the knowledge to suggest something that will work better for my complexion! However, the look was stunning, falsies applied flawlessly, and overall it was blended to perfection. Do yourself a favor and book with her now while she’s available! Pro tip: if you’re extra pale like I am and are planning to get a spray tan for your big day, do it for your makeup trial as well! It will give you a much better idea of the final look:)

On top of that, her rates are extremely competitive and this was the vendor of all my wedding vendors that I felt like I got the most value for my money. The florals were absolutely gorgeous and our room looked so lush. She repurposed almost everything from the ceremony for the reception which saved us a ton of money. I got more compliments on the flowers than on anything else at the wedding, many of my friends recently got married and they said they wished they would have known about FlowerRush before! I cannot recommend Angeline highly enough, book her for your wedding you will not regret it!

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 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!

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!!

We're continually striving to elevate our skills and knowledge so that we can continue to exceed our clients' expectations and offer the same wonderful experience across the board.

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.

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.

As a photographer, my goal is to capture stories in the form of images. Photos have the power to help you relive a specific moment in time and recall all of the emotions and details surrounding that moment. When I work with you on a photo project, my goal is to provide you with photographic records of those moments. I want you to be able to look back at your photos years from today and be able to relive that moment in time.

Say Cheese Photography is the best company I have ever worked with. She was incredibly organized, detail oriented, and friendly this was so helpful throughout our planning process - she was communicative and quick to respond to any & every question I had with tons of helpful information. I had no doubt that not only would she take amazing photos but I wouldn't have to worry about any detail not being captured or something feeling unorganized. She totally delivered. We're obsessed with the photos from our wedding weekend everything was captured perfectly & the photos really feel organic and like "us". Not to mention there are so many photos, we keep looking back and finding new favorites or little memories captured that we forgot happened! Neither me or my husband love having our photos taken and She made the entire process fun, easy, and very efficient (which was especially key given how hot it was on our wedding day). Our family and friends continue to rave about our wedding and how amazing it was. She is so talented and professional but also personable. It was so fun working with her I will recommend her to any couple looking for a wedding photographer!!

She listened closely as we described our vision and offered wonderful suggestions to bring that vision to life. Devina was extremely responsive throughout the planning process, promptly answering our many questions.

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 love all things weddings because witnessing couples' happiness brings me joy and fuels my creativity. I want to create photographs that can stand the test of time so couples can relive their day years from now and for generations to come.

Khoa was our wedding photographer from getting ready until the end of the night and we had an amazing experience with him the entire time! He is incredibly sweet and easy to work with, and made us feel very comfortable from the get-go. He was very thoughtful and thorough in using all aspects of our venue to provide amazing photos capturing the whole day. He worked very efficiently with us leading up to the ceremony to get us photos while still keeping us hidden away from our arriving guests, and then, during the ceremony and reception, he was amazingly unobtrusive but still able to capture all the great moments of our night! Khoa sent us a few preliminary photos which were all so perfect for personalizing our thank you cards. Once we got the full complement of photos from him we were blown away by the quality, editing, and energy he was able to capture from our wedding day. He is immensely generous with the number of photos he provides, and we have to stress that he somehow manages to deliver on both quantity AND quality. He is also very talented in composition and there were more than several photos that we never noticed him getting - everything perfectly captured the energy and feeling of the day and felt like we were reliving it again. Overall he feels like the complete package and we recommend him without hesitation!!!

Bryce Gaston Events brings an unparalleled standard of detail to high-end weddings in Southern California. We'll plan your wedding seamlessly by prioritizing even the smallest details and designing a day that doesn't just look stunning but creates memories that last a lifetime. If you're looking for a wedding planner who prioritizes logistics to ensure everything runs smoothly and infuses every ounce of your personality into the design of your day, you've come to the right place! We service San Diego, Santa Barbara, Palm Springs, Temecula, Santa Ynez, Los Angeles, Orange County, and beyond.

I can say with full confidence that our wedding would not have been possible without Bryce Gaston Events. From the beginning, Bryce took my vision and brought it to life in a way that exceeded our expectations and what we even thought was possible. Bryce not only ensured every detail was perfect but also advocated for us when it came to dealing with a VERY challenging venue that fought us on just about everything. Her extensive relationships with vendors gave us access to the best options, and she skillfully negotiated on our behalf, always keeping our best interests at heart. Even when my hair and makeup canceled 9 days before the wedding, she was able to help me secure the best artist who was better than who I'd originally chosen, myself. When the venue’s freight elevator broke on the day of the event, Bryce already had a Plan B in place, ensuring everything went off without a hitch. Thanks to her preparation and quick thinking, the day was flawless and our guests are still talking about our wedding! She was organized in the way she presented how everything would look day of, and always had a creative solution. Everything felt custom and tailored and was true to who we are. Her experience is truly unmatched. Truly every detail and minute of the day was accounted for with aisle planner and a schedule. If you want a planner who truly cares, has impeccable taste, is patient, and goes above and beyond to ensure your day is perfect, Bryce is the one. She was always accessible and had a creative solution for any issue that arose. I can't say enough about Bryce, but I know that we genuinely couldn’t have done this without her. I learned so much from working with her and I am forever grateful for how she brought my dream vision to life.

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.

Irina is an awesome and experienced photographer which is helpful when you have no idea what to expect on your wedding day. She works with you and your coordinator to make sure you get the shots you want. She even recommended some based on previous weddings she did at our venue. The planning process was straightforward and her rates were reasonable. On the day of the wedding she helped us get ready and reassured us that everything would be okay. She never stopped taking pictures and captured some wonderful moments throughout the night. We anxiously awaited our photos and they turned out better than we expected. She did a wonderful job capturing all the important memories. All of the pictures were gorgeous and she really made you feel special.
