From the moment we started planning our wedding with One Fabulous Event (Angela), we were impressed by their prompt, responsive, and transparent communication style. Angela was always honest and advising, guiding us through the process with professionalism and expertise. The quality of her work and support exceeded our expectations - she was more than we could have hoped for, truly knowledgeable and time-saving. When we felt overwhelmed at the reception (lots of love!), Angela set up a private table for us in a quiet corner so we could take a break and have our own space. Everything I envisioned for our special day, Angela made come true. Angela was so professional and really made the day feel flawless. We are so grateful for her incredible service and would highly recommend her to any couple planning their wedding.

Slay Events

Hello and Welcome! I'm Lily, a dedicated and enthusiastic wedding 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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

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.

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. Bryce is an absolute gem and she won’t let you down!

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!!

From the moment we started working with Samantha Vande Vegte, we knew we were in great hands. Her communication style was quick, hands-on, and extremely knowledgeable. Samantha's passion, happiness, creativity, and heartfelt approach truly shone through in every aspect of our wedding planning. We had initially told ourselves we didn't need a coordinator, but Samantha informed us of so many important details we never would have thought of on our own. She went above and beyond to ensure our special day ran smoothly, from arranging hors d'oeuvres between the ceremony and reception to keeping everything on a perfect timeline. We had time to fully enjoy ourselves and connect with our loved ones, all thanks to Samantha's incredible organizational skills and intuitive problem-solving. Samantha is honest, flexible, and so passionate about her work - you can tell she truly loves what she does.

Olivia was such a bright spot of the wedding planning process. She is a positive person with infectious joy, which brings much needed levity to the wedding planning. More than just a bright, can-do attitude, Olivia is an adept problem solver and planner. As a 2022 couple, we faced high demand for many of the things we envisioned and a number of changing policies and prices as the wedding industry recovered from the pandemic. Olivia had key insights into how to navigate these very real challenges and, best of all, solved many of these problems for us. From her years of experience in the wedding industry, Olivia has ample contacts with many vendors. Her knowledge of their offerings and her working relationship with many of the vendors we ultimately hired helped to streamline our process. She recommended some of the best in the business (seriously – people at our wedding were asking our vendors for their contact information!) and helped to make our wedding day so special. She successfully leveraged her contacts to help us realize discounts with certain vendors. Working with Olivia helped us take the dream wedding vision we had in our heads and make it a reality. Even when we couldn’t put into words exactly what we wanted, Olivia was often able to understand and propose designs that reflected our asks. She also helped to push us creatively, so our wedding presented a more cohesive design with high design elements. Without her, we would not have had some of my favorite aspects of our wedding day. For these reasons (and more) we unequivocally recommend Amor Atelier. We are including some details shots from our celebration, but highly encourage you to reach out to Amor Atelier and have a consultation for your specific vision. If you dream it, she can do it!

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.

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! SUCH a pro. Would 100% recommend Karen to any couple!

I am SO glad I found Dre and her team for our wedding! I am very type A and planned 90% of our wedding but as I got closer to the date, I started to feel overwhelmed and needed an extra hand. I spoke with Dre and immediately felt more at ease. Dre worked with us from the very beginning to make sure all the details I was most worried about were ironed out and taken care of. Dre assigned Lisa as our day-of coordinator and I ABSOLUTELY LOVED LISA! Although Lisa was our main point of contact, Dre was involved every step of the way so it really felt like I had the dream team making sure our wedding went as planned.... & it did!! I can probably go on and on about how amazing Lisa was on the day of! She was professional, SO DETAILED, quick, had amazing energy, and had the best attitude. A handful of my guests even made comments after the wedding about how hard Lisa was working to make sure everyone was taken care of. I had such a great time at my wedding and everything went smoothly (& if it didn't, there is no way I would've known because Lisa was killing it). I cannot thank Lisa and Dre enough for making all my wedding dreams come true!! If I could go back and do it all again, I would book Dre & her team even sooner!!!

Heather was such a joy to work with! We weren’t sure if we wanted/needed a day of coordinator at first, but within the first conversation we knew we had made the right choice. Heather and her team took all the stress of the day and handled everything, leaving us to enjoy the whirlwind of a day! She set up everything as we wanted, kept everyone organized and even ran to the grooms room (down the street!) where he had left the money for the vendors! Wind ‘N Sea was amazing and extremely worth it!

Creative Happens Events was founded in 2017 by Daniel DeSantis-Mallia. An experience Event Planner, Daniel's goal was to offer Wedding and Event Planning services that are both affordable and high quality. Our offerings are designed to ensure our clients can relax and enjoy their celebrations. We treat every event as though it is our client's most important day. The special moments in our lives also tend to be the most creative moments. That is where our tagline comes in, "When Life Happens, Creative Happens!"

We are beyond grateful for everything Chris did to make our wedding day truly exceptional. From start to finish, he went above and beyond—far exceeding our expectations in every way. His professionalism, calm demeanor, and incredible attention to detail gave us complete confidence from the moment we started working together. Every part of the day came together beautifully, and it was clear that Chris's behind-the-scenes dedication made all the difference. Guests were literally raving about him—comments like “Where did you find Chris?! I’ve never seen a planner hustle like that” and “I saw him run up and down those stairs a dozen times before the ceremony!” were just a few of the compliments we heard. Several couples even asked for his contact info on the spot, which speaks volumes. A personal highlight: the care Chris showed my sister before her speech meant the world to us. He went out of his way to reassure her and help her feel confident—his kindness and thoughtfulness truly stood out. He also handled last-minute hiccups (including a DJ situation and a centerpiece mix-up) with total grace and professionalism, allowing us to stay fully present and enjoy the celebration without stress. Chris is experienced, compassionate, and incredibly dependable. He made our wedding not only beautiful, but seamless and stress-free. On top of that, his rates are more than fair—honestly, he could charge more and still be an amazing value for the caliber of service he delivers. If you're lucky enough to have Chris on your wedding team, you're in the best possible hands.

Welcome to The Dainty Daydream, where together we create beautifully styled gatherings from romantic elopements in the mountains to breathtaking ceremonies in National Parks or elegantly curated weddings closer to home. ​

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Emily from Dainty Daydream for my wedding, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. I originally found her on Zola and hired her for day-of setup and design support—but she ended up being so much more than that. From the very beginning, Emily was incredibly responsive and kind, answering questions and offering guidance in the months leading up to our big day. We really dove in a month before the wedding to finalize all the details. I had already designed and chosen the decor myself, and Emily took everything I envisioned and brought it to life beautifully. On the wedding day, she handled setup and styling with such care and professionalism. Every detail was perfect, and walking into the finished space felt like stepping into my dream. Emily is sweet, calming, and so easy to work with. Dainty Daydream is a truly special company, and having her as part of our vendor team was one of the best decisions we made. If you’re looking for someone to bring your wedding vision to life with grace, precision, and heart—Emily is the one!

She communicated with us every step of the way and ensured we felt comfortable with each decision. She took away any and all stress on our wedding day so we could enjoy the day and our guests. Seriously! Hire Charnecia to coordinate your wedding related events if you want a stress free coordination!! She is one of the most communicative vendors we hired and one of our FAVORITES! 10/10!
