We could not be happier - his…read morepersonality was such a light on our wedding day, and he truly helped us loosen up and feel more comfortable, playful, and more like US. He and his team did a wonderful job capturing all of the moments and putting them all together into keepsake digital videos we will cherish forever. Your wedding day is such a whirlwind - when they say it flies by, believe them! Watching our videos back felt like we were re-experiencing our day as a guest, and we could not stop smiling through every second (even when we re-cried during our ceremony video). What drew us to Sure Shot was the editing style - from the intro fonts/design to the speech overlays, Rex was doing everything we wanted, and our end product lived up to all of our expectations! We highly recommend making Sure Shot a priority vendor for your wedding day - videography is just as important as (if not more than) photography, and we will stand by that!

I'm a lot of things, but natural in front of a camera is definitely not one of them. I told Rex and…read moreRicky right away that I'd probably be their most awkward client, but within minutes they had me completely relaxed. They were the life of the party, kept our wedding party laughing all day, and still managed to keep everything perfectly organized and on track. Rex and Ricky were the perfect mix of professional and fun, and honestly felt more like friends than vendors. They made the whole day easy and enjoyable, and the video they created is beyond anything we could have hoped for. I've watched it on repeat since the day we got it back, which, by the way, was incredibly fast! I truly can't recommend The Sure Shot Weddings team enough!

From the very beginning, she brought calm, clarity, and compassion to something that felt impossible to face. I had a vision in my heart for how I wanted the ceremony to feel and look but I didn't know how to bring it all together. Brittany not only made it happen, she brought it to life even more beautifully than I could have imagined. But what truly set her apart was the way she cared for me. I felt like she was holding my hand through every step, not just as an event planner, but as a deeply kind and empathetic person. She understood what I was going through, and she showed up with such grace and support that it carried me through. One moment I will never forget: right before the ceremony began, I was standing in the back behind all the seats filled with emotion, everyone waiting on me. Brittany looked me in the eye and gently said, "You got this." And somehow, in that instant, I found the strength to walk forward to the front row and sit down to begin the service -- to say goodbye to my husband. Later, during the reception, I wasn't eating or drinking anything. She came over and softly asked, "Red or white?" She brought me a glass of wine with such care, and I realized she had also asked the waiters to keep circling back to me with food. She noticed I was fading and made sure I was looked after. She didn't have to -- but she did. That's who she is. I could go on and on about how beautiful the ceremony was--and it truly was--or about how Brittany's talent as a graphic designer leveled up the event signage and the keepsake , or how she skillfully negotiated the best deals with every vendor. But what Brittany gave me was something far more profound: strength, kindness, a steady presence, and genuine human empathy. That's rare. And I feel deeply grateful to have met her and even more grateful to have been guided by her through such a tender and difficult time. Thank you Brittany.

Everything you need to throw a safe and fun party is delivered right to your door. The box was completely custom with amazing personal touches and so much attention to detail. His cake topper was so cute and makes a great keepsake for memories. It was easy to set up and the convenience of having everything right at your doorstep cannot be beat. Balloons, cake, candle, decorations, party favors, plates, cups etc! Being a full time mom I appreciated having everything taken care of so I could just focus on the day and enjoy his party. Would absolutely recommend this service to anyone looking to celebrate a birthday.

Tonya is the consummate professional and the wedding planner you want for your big day. From the…read moreinitial consult to after the wedding, I found Tonya and her team at Soigne Productions to be top notch, high-quality, reliable, warm, and supportive. I found her on Yelp after doing extensive searching, and after interviewing a few wedding planners. From the get-go, Tonya was flexible, extremely organized, dependable, proactive, and very familiar with the wedding venues and vendors available in Santa Barbara County. She allowed me to be as hands-on as I wanted, while providing solid advice and providing support whenever I asked. Besides supporting me with logistics, she has a great eye for style, and I took her recommendations several times for items such as floral arrangements, cake design, etc. I was aiming for a wedding that was minimalistic, romantic, with some handmade items, and uniquely us, and Tonya helped us deliver that. She listened carefully to our vision and helped us execute it seamlessly. If there were any gaps in my vision, Tonya filled them in even better than I could have. When my mom wanted to meet my wedding planner, Tonya was gracious enough to set up a meeting with her to make sure my mom felt confident about the wedding planning. It was great having her create a detailing timeline for the bridal party and the vendors, and running through the wedding rehearsal the day before - it saved me from having so much work! On the day of, we hit a few snafus, from late-arriving wedding guests, to almost going over the time we had set for the trolley, but Tonya handled everything calmly and supportively, and knew exactly what to do. She let us enjoy our big day while she took care of all the little details and logistics (all the small things, like paying the restaurant tab at the end of the night, add up but we didn't notice because she was by our side). It was great having someone we trusted look after us and our guests the day of. Because of Tonya and her team, our guests loved our wedding and we were able to enjoy all the little moments of our big day! I'd highly recommend her for your wedding as well. Some of my favorite guest quotes (that were made possible because we had Tonya): "The wedding was so much fun." "Your wedding is the one I wished I had. I'm jealous." "The wedding was perfect; I don't think anything even went wrong!" "This wedding is so you guys. It's so you!" "It's the best wedding I've attended this year. My favorite!"

I hired My Social Booth for our July 2016 wedding in Santa Barbara. I did a lot of research on…read morephoto booths in the area, and My Social Booth was definitely the most affordable. I was very impressed with the quality of the images, the props, and the booth itself on our wedding day. They set up the booth perfectly to fit the feel of our wedding and all of our guests had SO much fun taking pictures. Michele and her staff were great to work with and definitely exceeded our expectations. I also liked that they offered the classic style of photo strip as opposed to many other companies that require you to "brand" your photos with your name, date, etc. I am taking off one star for communication because I felt that at times My Social Booth was very difficult to get in touch with, even after we hired them. We were promised a flash drive with all the photos on our wedding day and never received it. I also did not hear from them for weeks after the wedding when we were trying to reach them to get the digital photos. I do wish there had been better communication on their part as to how we could expect to receive the photos. All turned out great in the end though and despite the communication issues I would definitely recommend My Social Booth for any event.

I had a solid idea of what my wedding was going to look like and about a year to make it come to life. That said, I had hired all my vendors and planned the event pretty much on my own, but Selena's expertise towards the middle-end of the planning process was key to our wedding going off without a hitch. Selena's expertise really helped in areas such as group vendor phone calls, software to map the venue and flow of event, generating a multi page timeline, and of course day of support. In my instance, I essentially passed off all my planning about 1-2 months out. By then, Selena had already sat in on phone calls with all vendors so she was able to tie up all loose ends/send out final communications. That way, I could start to focus on things like pre-folding 120 napkins, getting my table cloths steamed etc lol Selena is creative, easy to communicate with, and kind hearted. She's very invested in her clients and I felt like we were friends by the end of it.

Selena complained the whole time about being pregnantand even went on vacation the month before my wedding and was MIA for everything. The rehearsal she was eating and we had to run it. The wedding processional she was eating and couldn't be interrupted. She yelled at my wedding party non stop as well as the mother of the bride. My mom was so upset she almost left the reception. She yelled at my bridesmaid as she was trying pin my dress for the first dance. Forget bridezilla she became wedding plannerzilla. She kicked my brother and young kids out of the wedding. Mind you I did so many calls with her 3 year old daughter. Selena literally ruined our wedding. She yelled and screamed the whole time and made the whole day awful. I can't believe the positive reviews. She even bought things without my approval and charged me for them. I can't believe the positive reviews. DO NOT USE SELENA!
