Elena and her team were absolutely phenomenal and made our wedding day so much more enjoyable and stress-free. Day-of Coordination: Elena stood out not only on the wedding day but also in the months leading up to it. She was incredibly helpful during the planning process--offering thoughtful insight into creating a seamless timeline and even helping with ideas for decor and place settings tailored to our outdoor, beachy (and occasionally windy!) wedding. She thought of every detail, from preparing us in advance to get those dreamy photos (like the first kiss and cake cutting) to ensuring everything ran on schedule without a hitch. On the day, Elena was a true lifesaver. From the rehearsal to the ceremony and reception, I never once had to worry about where I needed to be or what was next. She kept everything moving smoothly, pointing me in the right direction while allowing me to fully enjoy the company of our guests and the magic of the day. And she always made sure we were taken care of (never without a drink in hand!). Her leadership and attention to detail made it all so effortless for us. Florals: Melissa tackled all of our floral arrangements, and I couldn't have been happier with how they turned out! Working within my limited budget, she brought my vision to life with stunning florals that perfectly matched our style and the seaside setting. Melissa truly understood the look I was going for, and her creativity and expertise made every arrangement stand out beautifully. She even gave me a calming pep talk before I walked down the aisle, which was such a thoughtful touch during a nerve-wracking moment. If you are considering a wedding at Scripps Seaside Forum (or anywhere else), I cannot recommend I-Do highly enough. Elena is an incredible coordinator who will make your wedding day run flawlessly, and Melissa will make your vision a reality. Thank you, Elena and Melissa, for helping make our wedding day unforgettable!

Melissa was incredible - she helped us plan our reception at Seabird Resort and I truly feel like…read moreshe went above and beyond- in logistics and emotional support! I booked her early and we initially just did a couple meetings to discuss our vision and needs regarding coordination, vendor contracts and florals since we did not need a full-planning service, only partial. She was always upfront and gave me honest opinions especially when it came to where to splurge and save, and what could look good and what wouldn't. The last 2 months is where she really shined, helping us follow up with vendors on details, setting deadlines for me to book rentals, reviewing contracts and constantly doing sanity checks when I needed it. The day of, she came extremely prepared, everything flowed smoothly (except some technical issues on part of the venue) and she was great at going with the flow and just letting the vibe and natural mood of the day go, and fixing whatever problems I threw at her. We also had her as our florist and she truly out did herself- her prices were incredibly reasonable and she handled everything like a champ when her assistant got sick the day of the reception. She also took my back and forth floral design suggestions and changes very well, as I am quite particular on details in some areas and deferred to her expertise in others. Honestly could not have done it without her and she was without a doubt my #1 worth it vendor! Would absolutely hire her for all your wedding planning and floral needs.

Simply put, Gina is the absolute best at what she does!…read more There is a reason she is consistently at the top of every ranking for best wedding planner. She made everything so easy from the moment we hired her through our wedding day. She is kind, easy to talk to, and made us feel comfortable from the moment we met her. They say something goes wrong at every wedding however at our wedding everything went perfectly and that was all due to Gina making sure everything was in its place. We were able to fully enjoy our wedding day because Gina was there to do all of the background work and she executed it all beautifully. With the planning process, she is super communicative and keeps you on schedule to make sure everything is booked ahead of time. She has great relationships with vendors and she recommended the best vendors to us (DJ, videographer, florist, etc). Every vendor we worked with repeated the same genuine sentiment "Oh, Gina's the best!!!" or some variation thereof...and it wasn't hyperbole. We aren't from the San Diego area so we knew we needed a planner that was local to help us and Gina was the perfect planner. For those wondering the process, you have an intro call with Gina to go over your vision for your wedding. We discussed vaguely what we were envisioning for our wedding. I can't express this strongly enough...TOUR YOUR VENUES. We met her on the tour of the 5 or so recommendations and ultimately decided on the La Valencia hotel that day. (The best venue ever!!!) Following venue selection we had a handful of emails and calls discussing vendors and people she has worked with. She will give you a number of recommendations but it is up to you to ultimately decide. She is available and quick to respond if you have any questions and will make sure you have everything you need to make sure your wedding day goes perfect. On the wedding day she helped our vision come to life and made it look even better than we could have imagined. Everything was beautiful and everything went according to schedule. We had no stress on our wedding day because we knew Gina was taking care of every single detail to ensure our day was everything we wanted and more. If you want the wedding of your dreams and to be able to enjoy it as well, look no further than Gina!

The restrooms are porta-potties, and the parking lot is dirt. Recently, we attended a wedding at Cheval Farm. We had to wait about an hour and a half for dinner after the wedding ceremony. We were in an open-sided tent with large cables, held into the ground with giant spikes. It was very dark outside of the tent. When I went to get in line for dinner, I ran right into one of the spikes. It hurt like hell, and left a large bruise. I told an employee, who said nothing. When I noticed a large goose-egg forming, my husband went to get ice. He spoke to the owner and, while they gave him a bag of ice, the owner did not apologize or even seem concerned. I saw another person run into the spike as well. I have heard of other people falling and getting hurt at Cheval Farm, and from what I have heard, they have not received apologies either. Do better, Cheval Farm!

From the…read moremoment we met Gabriela, it was clear that she wasn't just a wedding planner--she was someone deeply invested in making our wedding day a reflection of us as a couple. She took the time during our very first meeting to ask about our personal story--how we met, how my husband proposed, and what made our relationship unique. This was something no other planner had done, and it immediately made us feel like we were in the hands of someone who truly cared. She has become more than just a wedding planner, and is now one of our friends. Our wedding was a beautiful blend of two distinct cultures, and Lavish went above and beyond to ensure that every detail honored both of our traditions in a way that felt seamless and cohesive. Gabriela found creative ways to incorporate elements of each culture into the decor, ceremony, and reception, making our celebration not just special, but incredibly personal. Her thoughtful approach to merging these cultural elements was absolutely perfect, and we were so grateful for the care she took to ensure everything felt authentic and meaningful. On top of all that, the Lavish team was incredibly attentive to every last detail. There were a few last-minute challenges on the day of the wedding, and they handled them with such grace and professionalism that we didn't have to worry about a thing.

Everyone tells you something will go wrong on the wedding day and to go with the flow - I was fully prepared for that, but literally was PERFECT. From day one, they made me feel like I was planning my wedding with two of my best friends who just happen to be experts at throwing the perfect event.

We found Amy online and had an initial phone call consult and that was pretty much all we needed. When we first met Amy, I knew she was the one to get it done.

She recommended vendors who, on our wedding day, delivered top-tier service. She is well-connected within the San Diego wedding industry and is beloved by these vendors, and I understand why. She attended vendor meetings with us and made sure the vendors understood our vision all while remaining cost-conscious. Did I mention she helped us stay within our budget?!
