We truly cannot say enough great things about Yard & Sea as an event venue!…read more We hosted our 20-year high school reunion here, and from the very first interaction, Jay went above and beyond as a venue host. He made our site visit seamless, and once we booked, the level of support exceeded all expectations. The pricing is incredibly reasonable--especially compared to other venues--and Yard & Sea includes so much like tables, linens, chairs, etc. It is flexible, customizable, and works for a range of budgets and needs. The vendors they work with are top-notch. We received tons of compliments on the tacos and the photo booth was a huge hit. (This wasn't your average setup--it was a high-end experience where you can customize the photo strip design, pick your backdrop, and choose from options like GIFs, photo series, and more!) The space itself is open concept, essentially a blank canvas with tons of potential for decor, and perfectly located in the heart of Pacific Beach. The reserved parking lot was a huge bonus, and Jay let us in as early as noon to set up--and even allowed us to store things overnight for next-day pickup. The setup and breakdown team worked fast and efficiently, and they were incredibly friendly and helpful before/after the event. Between the location, pricing, flexibility, and overall vibe, Yard & Sea was the perfect venue for our reunion. It felt like an elevated house party in the best possible way, and we're so glad we found it!

She helped plan and coordinate our wedding especially since both my husband and I have full time jobs. She helped make our dream and vision come true at our wedding. She incorporated two different cultures so elegantly. We have received numerous compliments from our wedding guests on how beautiful the wedding was from the small details to the flow of the night. We highly recommend her and we couldn't have planned such a beautiful wedding without her.

If I could give Gisele 6 stars, I would! Gisele did an incredible job…read more She helped us pull off a 400 person winter wedding in just 5 months! With our tight work schedules and living 2 hrs away from San Diego, it was like planning a destination wedding. But Gisele's vendor recommendations were on point and everyone worked incredibly well together. As a detail oriented person, I stressed the small details. Gisele did a great job reassuring me and also suggesting great, fun and creative ideas to produce the wedding of our dreams. Everyone delivered more than they promised. When looking for a planner I wanted someone who was responsive, creative, but also maintained our privacy. Gisele went above and beyond anything we expected. She's a great communicator, and immediately responsive to emails / phone calls. She spent hours of her personal time to make sure everything came out exactly how we wanted it, even the night before our wedding. If we said we didn't like something she never took it personal, and helped us find exactly what we wanted. The other nice thing is that if you're on a budget, Gisele would take it upon herself to pass along any professional discount to the bride and groom, which saved us thousands of dollars! Not to mention, she protected our privacy throughout the whole process. I had a lot of surprises in mind that we didn't want to reveal before the wedding. She worked great with the hotel staff and all the guests complemented how professional her team was. On the day of the wedding, we knew we were in great hands. The timeline worked like clockwork, and as the bride and groom, we did not feel a single hiccup! it was timely and perfect. Our guests were all soo pleased with the event, some even saying its the BEST wedding they've ever been to!!! We have Gisele to thank for that! My only regret is I didn't call her sooner in the process. Thank you for all that you did Gisele and team!

My dad wanted to surprise my daughter who just started school at SDSU with a bouquet of flowers…read more Because of the time he called it in, all the delivery guys were already gone for the day however, Melissa said she could drop them off on the way home from work so she went the extra mile for us. Melissa made my daughter the BEST bouquet of flowers, honestly so much better going to a boutique flower store versus one of the larger franchisees.... being a family owned business, they take pride in their work, and they're unique flower bouquets are absolutely beautiful. I highly recommend this flower store!

I strolled into the Bridal Bar at the beginning of my wedding planning process where I really…read moredidn't know where to begin. After being there for 1.5 hours, I left with a stack of magazines, vendor information, a wedding resource book, and a better idea of what I wanted for my wedding. Leah helped me a lot in having me rank the different wedding related items to see what was important to me. This helped me with determining my budget and made me realize what was important for me to include in the wedding. Leah also followed up with me on certain vendors after our appointment and was always willing to help. The only downside with The Bridal Bar is that they only recommend vendors that pay them to advertise their services. Since they are in La Jolla, a number of the vendors are on the pricier side. There's no expense to you to use their services though, so I definitely recommend them to anyone planning their wedding in San Diego.

Amazing experience with Zoey and her team,…read more My husband and I hired her for our toddlers birthday out on the bay, we where referred to her by a friend. The style we opted for was a bohemian beach picnic styled birthday party, it was done super professionally, the design was perfect with many thought out details and the atmosphere was very inviting. Both the kids and the adults had a great time. Z designs exceeded our expectations, we are super happy with the results. We essentially showed her some photos of what we kind of wanted and just had to show up, which is so nice being that my husband and I are both pretty busy. hopefully i'll have time to upload pictures shortly.
