The Secret Garden At Rancho Santa Fe was an absolute dream venue for our wedding! This venue came with the best team and I would 10000% recommend them to anyone looking for a seamless experience and beautiful wedding. From the moment we first reached out, the team was responsive, quick, and clear in their communication, making the planning process smooth and stress-free. Kendra did our initial tour and did a great job laying everything out on the table so there wouldn’t be any surprises. We could not believe everything that was included and the value- but it truly is an all inclusive experience. Mary was great with communication and answered all of my questions (even the really silly ones). On the day of, the quality of their work was truly amazing - they executed my vision perfectly, with every detail thoughtfully considered. Tammy, Ellen, and Brian who were our incredible photo/video team, went above and beyond to make us feel at ease and ensure we had a fun, memorable experience. Last but certainly not least - Laura was our coordinator and she was absolutely EPIC. She played such a huge role throughout the process and relieved so much of my stress through multiple meetings and emails. She made sure everything was perfect the day of, kept me calm (which is not easy to do) and was an absolute gem. She is truly one of a kind and the absolute best - I could not have asked for a better coordinator. We are so grateful to the entire team for helping make our special day perfect (and EPIC) in every way. It truly was the dream team and a dream wedding - thank you epic events for everything!

Epic Events Group 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
Rancho Santa Fe, CA
  • Planner
  • Offers 3 services
  • Starts at $5,000

At Epic Events Group, we are a team of wonderfully experienced event planners and coordinators that absolutely love what we do. While we manage several of our own venues, the heart of our company is utilizing our supportive packages all over San Diego County and the surrounding areas at venues that may seem less manageable or lean more on the DIY side. Any venue that allows outside coordination, we can support you at! We work with each couple individually based on your budget, style, event preferences, location radius, etc. to not only find the right venue, but support you from there all the way through the wedding day with our amazing team!

The Secret Garden is the 'happiest place" in the world, ok--in San Diego--to get married! We set out with this criteria: We wanted our wedding day to be MEMORABLE. And it truly was thanks to EPIC.. If you are wanting to create a truly memorable wedding day, this is your place. If you're looking for intimacy where you don't have to share your special day in the middle of a hotel, on public or hotel grounds, or on the lawn of a golf course, this is your place. If you love to be surrounded by flowers and greenery without a hike in the woods, or at a public park, this is your place. What else makes a wedding memorable, is not just the day of, but the lead up to that special day. And that's where the EPIC team shines. We felt like royalty where we catered to, and that our every wish was their command. We felt the TEAM working with and for us to help us create that memorable wedding day. Kendra--whom we first met, not pushy in any sense of the word. Laura--the lead wedding coordinator who walked us through everything. Always with a huge smile, a hug, and creating everything with ease, confidence (which gives you confidence) and so chill. Drew--our coordinator the day of who walked us through not one but 2 wedding rehearsals because we weren't sure how the weather would be---and on the day of , he waited till nearly an hour before the wedding --cuz he knew we wanted to have it outside--to confer with us that the wedding would have to be inside--which was very LOVELY, by the way. He added so many special touches I can't count them. Mary--the manager, who was by our side when negotiating with the vendors. Always available. DJ Shy—OMG! He and I worked together fabulously, even at 7 am the morning of our wedding, we were fine tuning something that I wanted. And he delivered. As I write this, I realize the theme is: EPIC goes ABOVE and BEYOND to serve you and make sure you truly have the happiest wedding day! Rain or shine!

Floreale Studio 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
Rancho Santa Fe, CA
  • Florist

For years, I worked in headhunting and business operations, where I specialized in helping companies find the right people and built thoughtful systems behind the scenes. Yet, I’ve always been creative and had often found myself craving a tangible form of creativity - something slower and more sensory. Floral design became an outlet, and eventually, my calling.

Working with Val was one of the highlights of my wedding. Her creativity, communication, and genuine passion for her craft are truly exceptional. I feel incredibly fortunate that she was part of our day. I didn’t come in with a fully formed vision for our florals – just a color palette and a desire for rich, varied textures. Val took that loose direction and ran with it, coming back with thoughtful mock-ups and ideas that immediately felt right. She even wove in deeply personal touches, including visiting our home the day before the wedding to trim leaves from our Monstera plant that we’ve had for nearly a decade. That level of care and intention speaks volumes. Val and her entire team went above and beyond to make our wedding day truly special. I couldn’t recommend her more highly.

I truly don’t think my reception would have been what it was without Connor. It was not a traditional wedding and we are a couple with two very different backgrounds; somehow Connor made it work perfectly. His professionalism and expertise was top tier. He helped us throughout our day with our timeline, the music went perfectly with whatever the vibe was at the time, and overall was just a great experience. If you’re in the market for a rad DJ, Connor is your man! Thank you for an incredible time.

Kolibri Flower Lab is a creative haven nestled in the heart of San Diego, California. Our floral journey began with a vintage "Pink Flower Truck," a handful of blooms, and rolls of colorful wrapping paper. If each step we take marks a chapter of our adventure, then our floral designs serve as a vibrant reflection of the diverse and lively community we are proud to be a part of.

Awarded Best of Zola
When I was first looking for a florist, I was overwhelmed with how many options there were. I came across Claudia / Kolibri Flower Lab's instagram and immediately knew that this was the one! All of Claudia's floral arrangements were gorgeous and were in line with the color scheme I was planning for my wedding. Throughout the entire planning process, Claudia was quick to respond and made it clear that I could reach out to her at anytime. Whenever I wanted to have a quick call, she always immediately scheduled some time for us to chat. Claudia was not only super responsive, she was so sweet and friendly and it's clear she's passionate about what she does. In addition to having Claudia do the florals for my wedding, I also rented candles from her. In the end, the florals combined with the candles were literally everything I'd been imagining but 10000x better. I got so many compliments from guests on how beautiful everything looked and the attention to detail! If I had to do it all over again I'd choose Kolibri Flower Lab without a second thought. Florals can be expensive and I was afraid I wouldn't be able to do everything that I wanted, but Claudia's affordable pricing allowed me to. I am sooo satisfied and impressed with Claudia's work, thank you so much Claudia for bringing my dream to life! It was everything I'd imagined it to be and more. You truly have a gift!!

Four Seasons Flowers was very prompt in their responses. I was able to make an appointment with Carma to go over my wishes and photos I liked. When it came to my mock creation, we had three different centerpiece designs, Karen (the designer) was there to help tweak the flowers to look exactly how we wanted it to! The work was stunning. Our photographer was happy that we went with Four Seasons because he knew the flowers would look good and have water for the hot summer day. I guess some florist's flowers do not survive long enough for the photos, while ours were gorgeous the whole day. Their team set up and delivered my flowers smoothly all day. Not one point did I ever question if the flowers were going to be there on time. They were also very friendly. I highly recommend using them!

On the day of the wedding, he arrived on time and immediately began getting B-roll of the venue. He did work with my groomsmen and I as well as my wife and her bridesmaids. We also hardly even noticed him during the ceremony. The finished product was stunning. In beautiful cinematic fashion, he perfectly captured the emotion and love we felt.

They say your wedding day passes by in a flash, we'll be there to capture your special moments to watch throughout the years.

We are so happy that we chose Ryan Films as our videographer! They were a delight to work with at every turn. Ryan was really helpful on our initial phone call, and in making sure everything was all set for the big day. Kris and Alec were our videographers, and they were such a joy to work with. From the second they showed up, they were helpful, fun, and warm. They were great at directing us and helping us feel comfortable in the shots with just the two of us, and then they were awesome the rest of the day/night at blending in with our guests and capturing some amazing footage. They had a great sense of humor, and they clearly enjoy their work and sharing in the joy that they are helping to capture. We never felt nervous or self-conscious, and barely noticed we were being filmed. And the finished product is just incredible! The footage they captured and the way Ryan Films edited it truly captured the essence of the day. The music they chose to put our footage to matched our vibe perfectly, and they chose some of the most beautiful words from the ceremony and speeches to include. We originally ordered the cinematic highlight reel, and ended up adding on the full ceremony cut and reception cut as well. We were so stoked and surprised by the 1 minute teaser video they sent us a week after the wedding! And they were very timely in their delivery of our full finished product. We will treasure these videos forever and ever, and are so grateful to have footage to look back on and share for years to come. Thank you for your beautiful work, Ryan Films!

Lily is an actual god among men!! The wedding wouldn't have happened without her. She was amazing throughout the entire process and stayed planning with me throughout her pregnancy. Lily is detail oriented, hard working, thoughtful, and inspiring. She understands the ins and outs of this industry so well and can manage any issue on the fly. When she found out she'd be 8 months pregnant on my wedding day, she provided a superhero lineup of a team. We had a fantastic day of coordinator (Krista) and the best ever coordinating assistant, Ellie, who literally sewed my dress 10 minutes before I walked down the aisle, changed me into my reception outfit, and gave me a carrot out of her own lunch box (you really don't eat on your wedding day). The wedding went so smoothly and it wouldn't have gone that way without the help of Lily and her team. She even showed up just to say hi to me on the day! Thank you Lily and Slay Events for giving us the best day ever. We'll hire you for the vow renewal in ten years ;)

If you're reading this review, congratulations, you can stop your wedding DJ search! DJ Pat is without a doubt the man you are going to want to keep the party going on your special day. We hired Pat for both our ceremony and our reception and he completely knocked it out of the park all day long. The app that he provides his clients makes it SO EASY to setup the songs you want to play and even lets you put together a schedule for the day, which we found to be incredibly useful during planning. On the day of the wedding, Pat showed up early to setup his equipment at two different sites and because he is a professional, he didn't need to worry us with questions about where things needed to go. Thanks to Pat, our day went as smoothly as we could have dreamed. He delighted guests at our ceremony with his extensive backlog of lovely instrumental music, even some really niche ones. He also provided a microphone for our officiant so no one had to shout as our ceremony was outdoors. Then during cocktail hour, dinner, and finally open dance, he kept the party going with suggestions we added to his app, requests from our guests, and his own surprises that he tailored to us as a couple. We seriously cannot recommend DJ Pat enough. Thanks to him, our wedding day was truly magical.

The Thursday Club was the perfect venue for our wedding. The beautiful ocean views, charming garden, lovely ceremony space, and great reception area made it feel so special. Since it feels more like a house than a traditional venue, it created a warm and intimate atmosphere that my husband and I loved. Chris, the venue manager, was kind, professional, and wonderful to work with throughout the process. The venue also hosts open houses a couple of times a year, giving couples the chance to meet a variety of wedding vendors. Choosing The Thursday Club was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding, and we highly recommend it!

I've been djing since I was 15 years old. I had a fascination for parties and events at an early age. I tagged along with my brother who dj'd at house parties back in the early 80's. I was hooked after seeing how much joy the music brought out in the crowd. I started buying my own 12" records, and it evolved into doing my own gigs: house parties, jr. high & high school dances, colleges, raves, underground parties, night clubs, weddings, corporate events, and so on. I started my DJ business in 1987, and have been honing my craft now for 3 decades. Thirty plus years later, I continue to love what I do. Now let's get the party started.

Witnessing DJ Xray live is like stepping into a whole new world of sound and rhythm.

If you are undecided on a coordinator, just stop here. Carolyn made our wedding day the most perfect stress free experience. Any hiccups that happened she took care of without having my husband and I getting involved to worry. She communicated with us monthly up until the wedding to make sure we were on track with getting everything done and always offered to help with anything if we needed it. The timeline she made for us was perfect. We even finished early with pictures before our ceremony giving us even more time than intended to touch up and relax before the big moment. The set up looked better than I had pictured, thanks to her. I really can’t say enough great things about her, truly, she’s the best! She is the sweetest superwoman who does it all. 100/10, go with Fete Events!!
