If you are planning a wedding anywhere in California, you MUST work with Golden Coast Planning! It was a true joy and pleasure to plan together with Josh and benefit from his wealth of knowledge of the wedding industry, vendors, and the Big Sur area.

Josh and the Golden Coast Team were fabulous partners in bringing our dream wedding to life in Big Sur. We worked very closely with Josh for 16 months leading up to our 25 person wedding at the Wind and Sea Estate in September of 2023, and he was such an amazing partner in crime who made all of our wishes come true!

Aside from being an all around amazing human being who is fun to work with, Josh is very well connected with so many local vendors in the Monterey/Carmel/Big Sur area where we had our wedding, and he has an extensive wealth of knowledge and experience in the wedding industry. He was able to curate a stunning group of vendors who were familiar with our venue and who would be able to bring our vision to life exactly the way we had hoped at that specific location.

Josh was with us every step of the way, from selecting a venue over a year in advance, managing contracts and timelines, helping pick up rentals, and even being there on the day of the wedding himself to make sure our day went off without a hitch. He was such a great mentor and sound board throughout the entire process with every little decision we had to make, always guiding us in the right direction. Planning a wedding is a once in a lifetime event, so we definitely needed Josh’s guidance!

In addition, having the Golden Coast Team provide day of coordination services to run our welcome party and wedding day was the best decision we ever made. We did not have to think about anything and were truly able to enjoy the moment and watch all of our planning come to life flawlessly. The team was very organized, timely, thoughtful and creative. We felt like celebrities as they were running the show and always making sure we had everything we needed and were in the right places at the right times.

Thank you again for the most perfect wedding week and a new found friendship!

If you're looking for a wedding planner, hire Josh & and the Golden Coast Planning team! We can't recommend Golden Coast Planning enough. We are SO THANKFUL for GCP and their incredible support over the last year. They made our entire wedding planning process so smooth, and we truly wouldn't have been able to do it without them.

The Golden Coast team put in an immense amount of time and effort before the actual day. They meticulously handled extensive timeline and location layout design, captured vendor details in-depth, never got tired of our continuous changes to the plan, and ensured that every detail was buttoned up. Their coordination with all our vendors was seamless, allowing us to focus on enjoying our special day without any stress.

We chose to have our wedding in Big Sur, a place very special to us. Unfortunately, due to a road collapse of Highway 1, we had to move the date. This could have been a huge disaster considering the amount of vendors we had booked, but Josh and the Golden Coast team were incredible. They swiftly found alternative arrangements and managed to reschedule everything that we had planned, so we were able to keep all of our plans and only moved the date out by 2 months. Their flexibility and resourcefulness turned what could have been a major setback into a smooth transition.

On the day of our wedding, everything went off without a hitch. From the beautiful setup to the flawless execution of the event, their dedication and professionalism were evident in every aspect. We hardly had to worry about any details during the setup, and instead were able to focus 100% on enjoying the wedding. Even during the event, whenever there was a small request, Josh immediately worked behind the scenes to make it happen. Josh, Angelica, Ruby, Nicki, and the entire team at Golden Coast Planning went above and beyond to make our wedding day unforgettable.

Their incredible dedication really came through and made our wedding so special. We are forever grateful for their hard work and HIGHLY recommend Golden Coast Planning to anyone looking to have a beautifully organized and stress-free wedding.
