WOW! Ashley from Bliss Events is truly amazing!!! Right away from the first interview call with Ashley I instantly felt comfortable and confident that our wedding day would go so smoothly - and sure enough it did! Ashley was super responsive, gave us multiple vendor recommendations within our budget, and ultimately allowed us to truly enjoy our wedding day as she was the one running around working with all the vendors behind the scenes!
I don’t know what I would have done or imagine how stressed I would have been especially the month leading up to the wedding without Ashley! We had a sit down meeting to go over every single detail. She also was the one to reach out to each vendor and finalize the timeline! We just had to approve it! That was a huge relief and I had every bit of confidence that Ashley was going to make everything seamless.
We can’t thank Ashley and Bliss Events enough for making our day so perfect!!! -

I truly cannot overstate how important hiring Rachel & Bliss Events was to the success of our wedding planning & the wedding itself. We engaged Rachel with the “Tying it all together” package and added a planning meeting at the beginning as well. Rachel was available throughout the entire planning process to answer our questions and always had great insight to share. Once we got down to the wire, she was critical in finalizing conversations and details with our other vendors. At the rehearsal, she was critical in providing advice to our wedding party on timing, common mistakes etc. The day of the wedding, she ensured that everything went smoothly, reminded us of key moments, and was there for everything I needed. During the reception, Rachel asked if I wanted to change into my ceremony sneakers. I told her I didn’t think I could because I forgot to give her socks with the sneakers and she got me socks so I could dance my heart out!!!!!! It’s the little things that make all the difference.
Most critically, we assembled our core vendor team (Photo / Video, DJ, Officiant) based on Rachel’s referrals and recommendations and the quality of this group speaks louder than any words I could share. You always hear from people that “things will go wrong, you just roll with it”. The day & night of our wedding NOTHING that was plausibly in our control or the control of our vendors went wrong. Seriously, nothing. The night was BEYOND perfect and more than I ever dreamed of. This is entirely because of Rachel and the stellar team she put together. One of my favorite parts of the night was just watching the amazing time all of our friends and family were having and this is ALL a credit to Rachel and her team! Working with Rachel & Bliss Events is the best choice you can make wedding planning! -

Rachel has been absolutely phenomenal to work with in every way. When we first got engaged we thought we were going to plan our wedding ourselves. We ended up going with the tying it all together package. Looking back for the type of wedding we wanted, we are so glad we had Rachel’s help as our seamless and perfect wedding day could not have occurred without her.
In the months before Rachel officially took over, she assisted in the communications with our venue’s representatives, provided us with invaluable vendor recommendations, attended our menu tasting to ensure all selections and questions were addressed and brought to our venue’s chef, and was able to answer any pressing questions we happened to have. All of this showed to us how easy to work with and how detail oriented Rachel was. More importantly, our interactions showed how much of an amazing person she is.
When our planned date for Rachel to take over operations began we got to see her in action. Rachel coordinated the logistical planning with our various vendors, helped us manage a minor contract dispute with another vendor, sent us detailed check lists of things we needed to have completed with updates, reminders if we were behind schedule on anything, itineraries for us and our families, timing and musical coordination for the events of the wedding, and was very communicative throughout the entire process for all parties who were to be involved in the wedding. All of this thoroughly put our minds at ease and helped reduce our stress since dealing with family and friends for a wedding is already stressful enough as it is.
The day of the wedding was no different from our excellent experience with Rachel we had thus far. She and her team were there to ensure everything was executed smoothly even when we deviated from the plan. On one occasion Rachel searched the grounds to bring us back to our guests when we had been taking extra pictures with our photographer during cocktail hour. She also made sure that I (the groom) did not miss my que in a song for the mother/son dance. We firmly believe that our wedding would not have gone as perfect as it did without the organization and hard work from Rachel. We have nothing but praise for all she did for us and would eagerly recommend her to anyone who is planning a wedding, whether they think they need a coordinator or not. Thank you again for helping make our special day so perfect. - Mr. & Mrs. Maddox

My now wife and I had always dreamed of getting married at the Hotel Del. We are both extremely busy business owners and Korie came highly recommended by our contact at the Del. I was skeptical at first to have a wedding planner but it was required by the hotel and we had ambition plans for the event with little available time to spend planning. Throughout the process, Korie kept us on track, had great vendor referrals, and is overall an extremely organized and alpha personality--which is what we needed. There were times we disagreed but Korie is a master at disagreeing without being disagreeable. In addition, whenever there was a problem, she found a solution. The day of the event went off flawlessly. The run up to the event was actually low stress unlike many horror stories you hear about weddings. Korie worked tirelessly behind the scenes and knew what to do (or what to tell us what to do) at exactly the right moments. Her presence was felt but not at all a distraction. Even though we did not hire her for our afterparty, she stuck around to see through the grand entrance and coordinate the vendors we had setup. She embodies the definition of a dedicated professional and I would recommend her without hesitation to any friend or loved one planning a wedding or event in the San Diego area. The wedding was truly amazing and beyond words to describe. Thank you Korie and Bliss Events. -

We initially reached out to Bliss Events because they were a preferred / recommended vendor of our venue. When we spoke with Rachel, it was clear that she is very knowledgeable with wedding planning / coordination and is also super passionate about supporting couples with navigating such a big event. Going in, we were especially nervous because this was the first true wedding in either of our families, so we felt a bit over our heads with everything that needed to be done, especially day of. Even in our initial phone call, she provided her perspective on the vendors we had already selected up until that point (and was familiar with almost all of them), as well as helpful tips + guidance on how to identify the others we were still in search of. We even ended up going with one of the vendors she recommended to us! In the end, we felt she was more than equipped and truly cared to help bring our wedding vision to life. This ended up being absolutely correct - Rachel was extremely communicative and responsive to all of our needs and questions (we had many, given our lack of familiarity with the wedding industry!) and overall was a joy to work with! She was organized, professional, and super helpful throughout the whole process, especially when we had to navigate some difficult situations and last minute changes. Day of, she and her team did their magic and truly allowed us to have a stress-free and amazing day full of love and happiness. We wholeheartedly would recommend Rachel and Bliss Events for any of your wedding planning / coordination needs! -

Charming, fun, and highly-professional, Korie and her team at Bliss Events are the ULTIMATE ASSET every couple needs to have in their wedding arsenal.
Korie provided everything from ideas, vendor recommendations, strategy and organizing docs, and day-of support to make me and my wife's wedding day a literal dream come true.
If you're reading this, I would highly recommend Korie and Bliss Events to anyone - my family, my friends, my mailman, people walking by on the street, etc. - getting married in the San Diego area.
WE LOVE KORIE (See the pic below). -

Adrienne N. Sent on 11/07/2023Ashley from Bliss made my Darlington House wedding day PERFECT
We hired Ashley as our 6-week-out coordinator to take us to the finish line of wedding planning and it was worth every penny. Ashley is so knowledgeable and had experience working with our venue and ALL of our vendors previously. 6 weeks before, we passed off all of our vendor contracts and details we had figured out so far and Ashley took it from there. She was so organized and communicative (with a lightning fast response time) and gave me and my fiancee a clear checklist to keep us on track leading up to the big day.
In addition to coordinating all of the vendors, Ashley even sent out a details email to our whole wedding party which gave them all the info they needed for the day.
The day of the wedding she led a perfect ceremony, took care of displaying all of my personal details and decor (and getting it returned at the end of the night), and kept everything running smoothly and on-time.
My family complimented me on being a "chill bride" but thats only because I had Ashley behind me, taking care of the details and alleviating my stress. I would definitely recommend working with Ashley on your wedding! -

We absolutely LOVED working with Korie. We instantly hit it off and she went above and beyond to ensure the vision of our day came to life. From the very first consultation, Korie provided exceptional advice that you can only get from years of experience. She reassured us at every turn and made the entire process not only easy - but loads of fun! Could not recommend her enough! -

Ashley from Bliss Events made our wedding day the most special day of our lives that we will cherish forever. I am someone that gets overwhelmed easily and Ashley kept me sane. Ashley knew exactly how to approach each step of the planning process. She is extremely organized and trustworthy. Ashley transformed our vision to life and went above and beyond with making sure every detail was perfect. She guided us through many options and was always so understanding, flexible and kind. Right when we hired her she created a very detailed and incredibly helpful timeline. She also turned my chaotic "vision board" into a simplified layout that she was able to send to the florists, venue coordinator etc. Throughout the year of planning the wedding, she was very responsive to emails, and helped us understand the wedding venue's contract. We always felt like we were in great hands and that she was taking care of everything for us. Her and her team did such a great job during the day of the wedding, all of our guests kept complimenting how it was the best wedding they've ever been to. Lastly, all of the vendors we chose went above and beyond for us because of Ashley's fantastic relationships with them. Ashley and her assistants were amazing in putting together our dream wedding. If someone or anything was out of place she fixed it in a moment. I've been to some weddings where the wedding planner can be very abrasive and sometimes even rude. Ashley somehow kept everyone in check including catering, photographers, the DJ, the guests, the wedding party etc, all while having the most kind and positive energy. She was able to keep the wedding going without a hitch while smiling and having fun. Ashley's energy rubbed off on the guests, myself, and the wedding party. The wedding moved so smoothly and everything was timed perfectly. The assistants were also fabulous and brought fun energy while making sure everything got done in a timely fashion. Ashley and her team were so on top of everything to the point where I basically just showed up to the wedding and everything was taken care of. This amazing team truly allowed us to fully enjoy our wedding and be present in the moment. -

Alexandra D. Sent on 09/21/2023Organized, Professional, Knowledgeable, and Experienced
I had an incredible experience working with Rachel for coordination of my wedding. When I was searching for a wedding coordinator, I wanted to make sure they had plenty of experience and were knowledgeable about the wedding industry since I had very little knowledge to begin with like most people. I interviewed 5 wedding coordinators and knew immediately within the first few minutes; Rachel would be easy to work with and would offer advice/tips throughout the whole process even though I only requested the month of coordination package. During the consultation she asked me so many questions, which brought up things I hadn’t thought of. She also provided advice for asking a friend to officiate for the very first time during the free consultation. She was very responsive throughout the entire process and has a very professional demeanor.
The month of the wedding she was SO organized. We had a lengthy appointment to review the vendor contracts in detail, then she communicated the necessary changes to each vendor prior to the wedding, which ultimately ended up saving me some money! She would color code all her documents and timelines so I could keep track of changes easily. I did not have to communicate with any of my vendors the month of the wedding and could refer them to Rachel at any time. This alleviated A LOT of stress leading up to the wedding.
The weekend of the wedding she was calm and collected which helped everyone including the wedding party, my family, and myself enjoy their time and soak in the experience. We were always ahead of schedule per the timeline she created so we could enjoy the day of wedding as much as possible. I received so many compliments from family members and friends at the wedding stating how wonderful a job Rachel did during the wedding and couldn’t agree more. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND working with Rachel for any of her wedding coordination services if you are looking for an organized, professional, and very knowledgeable coordinator for your wedding! -

Working with Korie and her team at Bliss was an exceptional experience from start to finish. My husband and I had 0 clue what we were doing, and Korie helped us feel prepared and relieved of stress the entire year leading up to our big day.
From answering our emails and texts immediately with answers to our questions, from sending us information, assignments, instructions, ways to stay organized on track, inspiration, must-haves + nice-to-haves, helping us navigate contracts with our vendors, affordable ideas to add more detail on the day of, the way she went above and beyond with some of the decor she had on hand and the candles she let us rent, running out for last minute drink ingredients on the day of, and so much more.
On the actual wedding day itself, we didn't have to think about a single logistic or problem. Korie and her team were ON IT. Friends and family had even commented on how amazing Korie was during our rehearsal. She kept us all on track, kept us organized, and left room for excitement and celebration.
She not only made us feel like we were taken care of and in good hands, but she made us feel cared for. She genuinely wants the best for you and your family on your wedding day and the days leading up. I would recommend her a thousand times, and we are forever grateful for her excellence and care.
She's a PRO with a LOT of heart, and she could literally run the world.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!! -

The best!
If you’re planning an event, use Bliss Events!! They are the absolute best!!
From the first meeting, we were so impressed with Rachel’s organization, the kinds of questions she asked (which made us feel so seen!), and her kindness!
Rachel really heard what we wanted from our wedding (unorthodox as some of the ideas may have been haha) and did such an incredible job pairing us with vendors! All of the vendors were not only awesome to work with but did such a great job! It was a truly amazing day for us and her expertise and vision allowed us to have a wedding that truly surpassed our dreams!!
I will look back fondly on the planning process. The timeline of wedding planning—from getting the big vendors like catering, florals, photography, and rentals to the details like place settings and reminding us to start looking for parent gifts—worked so well! We cannot thank Rachel enough for all of the hard work that she put into our wedding organization, for reminding us about tasks when we got really busy at work, and for keeping us on track.
Our wedding day was absolutely perfect! I would not change a single thing! From the very beginning of the day through to the very end, Rachel made us all feel so relaxed and like everything was taken care of. All I, as the bride, had to do was get ready and remember to eat and hydrate before. And during the actual wedding, I didn’t have to stress about a thing! I could just revel in the feeling of being married and enjoy time with my friends and family in an absolutely magical setting!
Everything was incredible!! I would not change a single thing! -

Timmy M. Sent on 03/22/2023Couldn't Speak More Highly of Bliss
If you are on the fence about getting a coordinator please listen and use Bliss Events. As a typical "we can handle it" male, I didn't really see the point of getting a coordinator. I thought it wasn't necessary but I can say this was the best decision/money spent on our wedding. Korie did an amazing job and relieved so much stress in the planning process and the day of the event. I didn't have to worry about anything because of the phenomenal job from Korie. We had monthly calls the year of the event and had a master excel sheet that had everything single detail we needed for a flawless event. The organization is world class and she is a master in the wedding planning field. We got married last week at Kona Kai and it was the perfect day thanks to Korie. I trust her word with my life, she recommended our videographer and DJ; both were excellent. If you are still reading call Bliss now and book. -

We worked with Rachel from Bliss Events and had the best experience. Bliss Events has many packages with different levels of involvement to work with what you're looking for. We went with month of coordinator but never felt restricted in our communication with her. Working with Rachel felt like working with a close friend that just wanted to make sure the day went off seamlessly for our special day and that is exactly what her and her team delivered. Rachel is a professional and communication with her was always easy, clear, and efficient. She worked to manage all of our vendors and they commended her on the details and scheduling she provided. We had a fabulous day and owe so much of it to Rachel. -

Rachel from Bliss Events is the most thorough, detailed, and thoughtful planner. She made my wedding at Estancia go flawlessly! She referred me to incredible vendors and completely ran the show leading up to the wedding and on the wedding day. She does not overlook ANY detail and takes notes on everything. She is so responsive and has amazing ideas and input on how to create an immaculate wedding. As soon as my family met Rachel at the ceremony rehearsal, they were all beyond impressed with her kindness, assertiveness, and level of detail. She already knew everyone's names and had everything so organized, even distributed handouts of the wedding weekend timeline to 13 family members and highlighted the parts that pertained to them. She confirmed every vendor, their arrival time, and made it so I did not have to lift a finger on my wedding day. At the end of the night, she even put all of the wedding keepsakes back in my room, even down to our escort cards, menus, and all the details. If you are looking for a wedding planner in San Diego, there is no one better than Rachel and her team. Look no further and book her immediately as she is worth every penny and her value is tremendous. She will be your most important wedding vendor and make everything go exactly as you requested. We love you Rachel, you are an incredibly hard working woman who gets so much done in a day all while having a kind and loving heart. I will be referring you to everyone I know getting married in San Diego, and I miss you already!!!
