Veronica and her team are absolutely incredible, and I would give them 10/5 stars if I possibly could!! Veronica helped to create my dream wedding, and there is genuinely nothing I would have changed. She made the entire process as stress free as possible, and included me, my fiancé, and both of our families in the process. Not only is Veronica on top of everything and regularly sending reminders, she was also so kind and personable and made a lot of wedding planning just feel like hanging out with a friend who wanted to make your vision come alive! Our venue had strict rules about things we could bring in (i.e. tablecloths, glassware, etc.), but Veronica fought for those small special details that made our day that much more special. I had a lot of lofty ideas and visions for I how wanted my day to look and Veronica surpassed what I thought was possible!! On the day of the wedding, everything flowed so smoothly, and her team made me and my fiancé feel so calm and so taken care of all day. If there were any issues on the day of, I was unaware because she completely handled everything! She was the architect behind the best day of my life and I am BEYOND grateful!!! read more

Best Wedding Planner! Veronica and the Type A Soiree team were fabulous, and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to throw a beautiful and well-orchestrated event. Veronica went above and beyond on the day of the event solving problems left and right. We misplaced all our table signs and Veronica and the team took it upon themselves to print new ones. I couldn't have asked for a better and well-prepared wedding planner! read more

We were so lucky to find Veronica! She and her team ( especially love Oni) stepped in after our original full service wedding planner backed out 3 months before the wedding because the job was too big and she was overwhelmed. Veronica was able to do more in 1 week than the previous company did in 6 months. She is organized and gets the job done while executing your vision beautifully. No one would have ever known she pulled it off in a few weeks! So many people told us it was the most beautiful wedding they had ever attended!! We were so pleased with the entire day! I was more beautiful than we could have ever imagined! read more

I've been working with Veronica as a makeup artist for years now and I can confidently say that she is absolutely AMAZING! She goes above and beyond for her clients, vendors and everyone that knows her LOVES her. Her attention to detail and ability to solve any problem that arises is top notch. She can literally have a plan A, B and C within seconds if needed. Any vision you have, she can execute AND bring ideas to the table that may have not even crossed your mind. You'll be beyond happy working with Veronica as everyone always is. read more

Veronica is hands down the most amazing, professional, efficient, and meticulous planner. Better yet, she is so personable and fun to be around. We feel extremely lucky to have found Veronica who made our wedding so perfect. Our wedding was not easy to plan as we wanted both a beach wedding and a classy downtown wedding. So we did a beach ceremony and reception at US Grant with buses for our guests. Veronica executed the transition seamlessly. We did not have to worry about anything because the moment we think about something, it's already taken care of. She also kept us on track throughout the planning process and also gave helpful opinion and suggestions. Additionally, Veronica is a well-established planner who has personal connections with a great list of top quality vendors who will help with one's vision for his/her dream wedding. And it will become a reality! :) We cannot be thankful enough for Veronica. We would like for all the couples to have the greatest experience that we both had! read more

I had the pleasure of DJing a wedding that Veronica coordinated a few weeks ago, and I have nothing but amazing things to say! The couple made many last-second changes the week of the wedding that they did not inform me of. Veronica kept me in the loop, ensuring the timeline flowed perfectly and that all the vendors worked great together! I look forward to working with her again in the future and highly recommend her! read more

Working with Veronica and her team is always a great experience. Veronica is absolutely meant to be a planner and it shows! Her assistants are always knowledgeable and informed, which is great for vendors when Veronica is occupied during events. Her organizational skills, creative eye, and confidence, all come shining through in her events. Discerning couples will receive nothing but an amazing experience when they bring her company on board. We always know what she and her clients are looking for when she reaches out to us for proposals - she is clear and to the point - we don't have to guess what couples need or want - she understands them and can articulate that with ease. Thank you for continuing to bring your clients our way and for putting your trust in us time and again - your support is so appreciated! ~Dawn (Owner - Gaslamp Floral & Event Production) read more

I wish I could give Veronica and her team more than 5 stars. She went above and beyond at every turn and really helped my fiance and I so much. No matter the issue Veronica was there to calm us and help us out. The night turned out better than I could ever imagine and I really owe it all to her and her team. Hiring her was the best decision we made for our wedding and I couldnt recommend her more. Even leading up to the wedding if we needed her on a call or to meet somewhere she would make sure she could make it even if she was busy. She will literally do anything to make sure the couple has the best wedding possible! read more

Type A Soirée planned an event in Mission Bay this evening-- it ended up being right in front of our Air BnB, where we were planning to hold a bonfire for a graduation party. I was definitely frustrated when the situation initially arose, but it was handled with such grace and patience by Type A. I was left with an overwhelming sense of professionalism on behalf of Type A. As someone who interacted with them on the other side of an issue at event, I can assure you, I would be confident that Type A can handle any bump that might come up during your event-- and handle it with such tact that everyone leaves feeling content and impressed. My interactions with Type A started out with frustration, and I left thinking if I ever need to plan an event, I would look to them first. read more

I absolutely loved working with Veronica. She is extremely organized, attentive and has such an eye for detail. She really cares about her clients and will go the extra mile for them. Looking forward to working with her again! read more

Let's go. Jordan palacios delivery manager for Farm Tables and More. read more

Sometimes things happen for reason, and I thankfully stumbled upon Veronica. I was planning my fiance's surprise birthday party and also planning a trip out of the country. Needless to say with time running short I started to think about what if I could use an event coordinator. Having never used one before I found myself looking on Yelp at different reviews. My event was an intimate dinner with about 16 people. Again having never used a coordinator before, I was a little intimidated to see that 99% of the reviews were all about weddings. Veronica at Type A Soirée happened to be the first company I called. I left a message for her as it was approaching a late hour about 6 o'clock for her to call me as soon as she could. I made a few other phone calls leaving messages at each, when Veronica call me a few minutes later. She actually took the time to explain to me what a coordinator does and how she could help. After spending about 20 minutes on the phone with her I quickly came to realize I needed someone like her back in the states to handle all the details. It was the best investment I have made. By the way, I'm still waiting for the other company to call me back. Veronica took care of every last detail including finding the venue that could accommodate a singer. Coordinating with a specific singer that I wanted to be at the party, whom she never done business with before. She also ordered red velvet cupcakes, which our venue couldn't do, ensured that punk gerbera daisies were part of the centerpieces, she had tablecloths laid out, real candles lit all around the room, she stayed on site and took photos and on and on and on. Quite frankly Veronica handled everything right up to the very end and beyond. So don't think your event is too small or too big Veronica did an awesome job and the next party I have she will absolutely be a part of it. My fiance is type A, I am more type B, give me big picture not minutiae and she was over the moon about the party and really impressed, as was I. read more

Everyone says planning a wedding is stressful and while it is, it really all comes down to the wedding day. I couldn't imagine my wedding day going so smoothly without Veronica and her assistant. Veronica put extra touches on everything she touched and eased the minds of myself and everyone in the wedding party. She went out of her way to make sure everything was prefect. Like her helping track down my wives letter (for wine box ceremony) that she misplaced before the ceremony and ensuring I was okay throughout that little mishap saving me from stressing!! We trusted her with one of the most important days of our lives and if we went back in time we would do it again! Highly recommended!!! read more

Veronica and her assistants at Type A Soiree did an excellent job at a recent wedding event in downtown San Diego. They were on top of the timeline from start to finish and there was never a lull in the action. They made sure that the clients as well as the vendors were all well taken care of. I would definitely recommend them for anyone planning an event in the Southern California area! read more

The wedding day can always be extra stessful and having Veronica and her team by our side that day made literally EVERYTHING go so smoothly! There were a few things that came up last minute and she just handled them. We even had some table changes the night before and forgot to tell her and she just figured it out and made things happen. We are so thankful that we were able to find her. My only regret is not hiring her 2 years ago when we started planning our wedding. read more

We know you'd be lucky to have Veronica plan your event in San Diego. Our experience was that in spite of rather short notice & all the challenges with COVID restrictions, Veronica put together a great schedule of events for the weeklong celebration of my father's 100th (!) birthday. Stellar venues, great restaurants, florist, bakery, catering, photography, decorations, music, etc. - everything was addressed so we could focus on just enjoying ourselves. We would highly recommend that you hire Veronica! read more

Veronica is AMAZING! I coordinate weddings on the side and I can honestly say Veronica is one of the best, and I definitely learned a lot from her. I could not make it to a wedding rehearsal for one of my couple's due to a scheduling conflict, and Veronica saved the day! She emailed the couple to assure them that they are in good hands, and she was able to understand their wedding rehearsal needs given the last minute time frame. Anytime I will need a co-coordinator she will be my girl! She's so dependable and friendly and knows her stuff! read more

I recently used Type A Soiree for my wedding and it was the best experience! Veronica was very helpful throughout the planning process with providing referrals and ideas for our decor and theme. She was always responsive to emails and calls and was honest about her thoughts while accommodating what I wanted. She effortlessly coordinated the rehearsal and when it came to the wedding day, it went off without a hitch! She had brought four interns to help with the day and placed every decoration exactly where I had imagined it to be. Throughout the wedding she was on top of the schedule and we were actually running ahead because of the level of organization. Honestly, it was my dream wedding and I wasn't ever stressed because I knew she had it handled. I definitely recommend her and I can guarantee you, that you will not be disappointed and it is totally worth the investment!! read more

Absolutely excellent! Veronica stepped in for us when our original wedding planner went on maternity leave and it was such a smooth transition we couldn't have asked for more! She made our wedding easy, enjoyable, and everything was absolutely on time and fantastic! It was the BEST day of our lives because she made it run smoothly!! Our guests had mentioned that it was THE BEST wedding they had ever gone to!! She was incredibly thorough, detail oriented, thoughtful, punctual... all we had to do was just show up and enjoy the day (which we completely did). We are SO thankful and appreciative for all the hard work Veronica and her assistant Oni had put into everything and making our day one that was filled with so much joy, excitement, and love in seeing all of our friends and family without any stress or worry. Highly recommend her, you can't go wrong and you won't have a thing to worry about!! read more

I have now used Type A Soiree for 2 different events, a 50th Birthday and a retirement party. No matter how many times I hesitate using a party planner, I am always blown away by the work they do and the stress they relieve. Veronica thought of details that I would definitely have missed, especially ad-midst all the organization it takes, from picking things up, drop things off, helping with scheduling, and contacting vendors. Veronica truly knows exactly what she is doing. I was able to enjoy the party as opposed to be stressed out. Her designs and decorations are absolutely beautiful and her connections are priceless. Her list of vendors, DJs, florists, Chefs, and venues is exceptional. I would highly recommend Type A Soiree to anyone throwing any type of event, from a party, to a business event, to a wedding. You will be in good hands. read more

I am so happy that I chose Type A Soiree's full wedding planning services package because Veronica made my wedding perfect! I was so impressed with her ability to listen to my vision and recommend vendors that aligned with my taste. I was looking for a planner who could do the vendor coordination and negotiate contracts. Veronica was a tough negotiator, getting me the best deals without sacrificing quality. Veronica was also very responsive via email throughout the year, and she setup day trips with me to look at rentals, provide feedback on the menu and help design our cake and groom's cake. Not only was her assistance fun, but she helped articulate my likes and dislikes to vendors and helped me make some tough decisions. The day of my wedding was stress free because of Veronica and her team's flawless execution, and she is such a talented decorator. I would definitely recommend Veronica and her team. read more

Veronica is an amazing and talented event planner. She planned a retirement party for my moms boyfriend and every little detail was absolutely wonderful. She is a very organized and driven person which in turn makes her events truly one of a kind! read more

I had a pleasure to work with Veronica from Type A Soiree and let me tell you - this girl knows her stuff!! Not only she is very hard working person, she is very professional and organized! After working with her and getting in some 'behind the scenes' of whats involved into planning and organizing a wedding/event, i have complete new respect for wedding planners! Veronica has so much knowledge about littlest details that i would not even think of! She paid attention to everything.. size of the table, size of the runner, matching colors, particular shapes of chargers, etc, etc.. She even told me she hired a florist to get some education on flowers, their names, which ones r in season, when and so on! I can go on and on but one thing i know for sure - my event would not turn out nearly as beautiful and organized had Veronica not coordinated it! Thank you SO much Type A Soiree! You r the best!! read more

Veronica helped my fiancé throw an awesome, surprise birthday party for me in Little Italy, complete with my favorite champagne, dessert (red velvet cupcakes), pink gerber daisies, candles lit throughout the room and even a Frank Sinatra singer (my favorite!) If you have an event to plan, call Veronica!! read more

Veronica is a fantastic coordinator! She coordinated my day of wedding in August and did a great job. She not only coordinates well, her personality is fabulous and she gets to know you as a person so she can help with any final touches with an event! I would highly recommend her!! read more

If you think you can plan your own wedding, you can, but it's a million times easier and less stressful if you have Veronica to help! Veronica was our day-of coordinator for our wedding and her help and advice were invaluable. Leading up to the day, she was helpful in providing and coordinating vendors, sending me timelines, and being an experienced sounding board. The day-of she was available all day, keeping the event flowing and our guests happy. I never worried because I knew she was there to help my husband and I realize our dream day. Thank you Veronica! read more

Veronica, the woman behind Type A Soirée Events, may be the hardest working woman in the state. As a wedding planner, you have to be negotiator, project manager, accountant, expert in photography, florals, cakes, etiquette, sometimes a therapist...the list goes on and Veronica manages to do all that for her clients. It's always a pleasure to work with Type A Soirée Events! read more

I hired Veronica for consulting and month of/day of coordination for my daughter's wedding on March 27, 2015. The wedding was at the Darlington House in La Jolla, California. The venue provides nothing (except an amazingly beautiful setting for a wedding!) so EVERYTHING needed to be brought in. We had to pick and hire every single vendor and it was daunting at times! We could NEVER have done it without Veronica! She put us in touch with some of the most incredible vendors! She definitely earned her fee (a few times over!) with all the emails, meetings and a LOT of hand-holding and reassuring. The wedding was everything my daughter dreamed of and we are still getting complements that it was the most fun and the most beautiful wedding our guests have ever attended. I would definitely hire Veronica (and her awesome group of "day of" interns!) in a heartbeat! read more

Veronica is totally on top of everything. Believe me, when you are working with a coordinator you want them to be type A and detail oriented. She runs a tight ship and yet, is incredibly kind and easy to work with. All of the characteristics you would want in a coordinator! read more

Veronica was the best fit and plan for my needs as a planner myself. I had a very good friend whom I helped plan their wedding but was sadly unable to attend the event as a guest or even help day-of due to other prior commitments. My friend needed some professional, top-notch, detailed day-of help and after knowing Veronica, we were the best team for her. It was hard handing over an event that I had worked so hard on to her as things got closer, kinda felt like a bride that plans everything and has full control and then has to do what is best -- which is hand it all over so someone else can check handle all the final details. I felt FULL comfortable doing so with V and knowing that my work would not only be understood but taken to the next level and done-so with grace, poise, hard-work, professionalism and just overall above and beyond attitude. She is fun, positive, knowledgeable (has a background with rentals too so knows lots more than most on that stuff) and just a pleasure to be around and work with. Would partner with her again any day and (if I'm not able to use my own colleagues at my company), I would ask Veronica to plan my own events in a heartbeat! She is one of the best at what she does! Very impressed and happy with the overall finished result! Truly an outstanding Event Planner! read more

I worked with Veronica for the Harrison reception at the Coronado Yacht Club when I was employed there. She and her team were professional and concerned that everything would be perfect for the couple. The reception for 210 people, was spectacular - every detail seen to.

Veronica and her interns, Jennifer and Emily, were OUTSTANDING!!! I had one month to plan my wedding and when the day finally came everything was perfect!!! I honestly owe it to these ladies for making the day run so smoothly. Prior to the wedding, Veronica was responsive in both email and text communications with myself and my vendors. On the day of the wedding, her and her girls were professional and attentive. They were also so easy to get along with and made me feel so at ease with everything. Anyone who needs an excellent coordinator should definitely consider Type A Soiree! read more

If you are looking for an event coordinator that will make your event run smoothly while making every detail count, Type A Soiree is the one for you! Veronica is so dedicated to her job and really has a passion for making others happy.

As a bride, Veronica will always make sure that your requests are met, and that you can relax and enjoy your special day! Ensure that your event is one to remember, and put your trust in Type A Soiree!! read more

We met Veronica right after we were first engaged. After setting our venue and date, our first search was wedding planners. Veronica was the first and only planner that we met with. We loved her direct and honest communication. We hired her for partial coordination, but she was there for us throughout the whole year answering my questions and making sure we were on track. Throughout the way we had meetings where she made us feel more like friends rather than clients. Her expertise and knowledge of vendors and the industry were a huge asset to us. Her recommendations always accompanied our style and wedding vibe. When it came to the day of, she took care of things I didn't even know needed taking care of. She was always one step ahead and kept us on track with time and agenda. The only thing she couldn't do was make the wedding day last longer than 24 hours! It was magical and the day went so smoothly because of her and her team. Even her husband helped out when I asked her to set up my multiple stacks of marble! read more

Veronica at Type A Soiree did an excellent job at a recent wedding event at The Park Hyatt Aviara. She collaborated with clients to create a memorable destination wedding and made sure that the clients, as well as the vendors,​ were all well taken care of. I would definitely recommend Veronica for anyone planning an event in the Southern California area! read more

This review is from the father of the bride. Veronica did a great job at my daughter's wedding. I was able to have fun and feel like a guest, which is the best of compliments, and not worry about a thing... or think anymore about what could go wrong. I totally underestimated the time, planning, coordination, level of detail, intensity and for sure, the cost of a wedding for 175 people, and really wondered how I let this go as far as it did....but Veronica was there whenever I called or needed her-to keep it calm, and everyone on task. On the big day, she was in tactical form and ready to go. She was everywhere, handled the vendors, guests, and anyone who needed help or attention. She is organized and professional, very flexible, well informed, full of good ideas, and has an amazing capacity to handle it all, and maintain coolness and grace under pressure. We had a wonderful event and it was a great success. I strongly recommend Type A Soiree Events for wedding planning and coordination. read more
