    Best Wedding Planner Ever

    Lisa made my wedding day the best day of my life. She is the best wedding planner you could ask for!

    She goes above and beyond. My florist forgot the rose pedals for the bridal suite and Lisa (after asking me) took the time to hand pluck rose pedal from my bouquet to put in a heart shape on the bed and it looked amazing!

    She gave the best advice! I originally planned to go down to the beach before the ceremony but she said I would not want to get dirty before the vows and she was right. I had so much more fun on the beach knowing I didn't have to worry about ceremony photos!

    Everything was perfectly timed and she even had little snacks and drinks waiting for us before our grand entrance.

    I also thought her price was very reasonable as well.

    (My wedding was in Orange County, CA)

    Awesome wedding planner!

    We were recommended to contact Lisa by our venue, The Resort at Pelican Hill, as they had only the best things to say about her! She has a ton of experience, knowledge and contacts within the industry and that made the entire process much easier. She thought through all the small details that weren’t even on our mind and because of that the wedding ran smoothly. Most of our vendors came through her recommendations and we can’t thank her enough for this!! We had a great time working with her and would recommend her to all couples looking for the help they never knew they needed! Thank you again Lisa!!

    Lisa was my guiding light throughout the wedding planning process. I don't know what I would have done without her. From our first meeting, I knew Lisa understood my vision and was the person to help me execute it. On my wedding day, she far, far surpassed my expectations and delivered the most amazing day of my life. Lisa was an amazing support system and friend throughout the process, but really helped me out in three primary ways. (1) She helped me set a clear and realistic budget based on my "must haves" and "nice to haves," which was a helpful starting point to reference when meeting with vendors. (2) She knows the top Southern California venues and vendors and will communicate / transact with them on your behalf. It was so helpful when Lisa could speak with the band, for example, to explain exactly how many lights we needed for the reception (because I have no idea). (3) She is incredibly organized and maintains a tight day-of schedule for the wedding party and vendors. No detail is left unnoticed in Lisa's schedules - everyone knows where they're supposed to be at every moment. I had the most amazing, worry-free wedding ever thanks to Lisa, and I will truly miss working with her!! xoxo

    I can not say enough amazing things about having Lisa as your coordinator. I am one of those CRAZY brides that over analyzes EVERYTHING and can't make a decision and rethinks EVERYTHING. From day one though...I never had one doubt about booking with Lisa. From the moment I sat down with her to interview her, there honestly was this HUGE weight lifted off my shoulders and I really felt that through all her experience/knowledge and sincerity, I could really trust her. She also has timely responses, she knows all the questions/things to go over that you would never even think of and she is highly experienced (does weddings for the Ritz/St. Regis and pretty much all over). She is the perfect wedding planner, keeps you from stressing and knows how to get things done all while being very professional with everyone (vendors/family/bridal party).

    Lisa Simpson was recommended by our photographer, Frank Salas. We booked her for the 2-month service, as our hotel (Hyatt HB) required a coordinator and since we are currently living out of state, we figured we may need the extra help. I would 100% recommend her to any bride needing a coordinator/wedding planner!

    She is incredibly experienced, responsive, and professional. She thought of every single detail and wanted to make sure our wedding went exactly the way we wanted, not the way she thought it should be. She gave honest feedback, which I appreciated, as we wanted our guests to also enjoy our wedding.

    We could not be happier with the way our wedding came out. Everything was so beautiful and perfect and most importantly, we were able to actually enjoy OUR day! Thank you SO much Lisa! :o)

    I consider myself pretty on top of things, and initially thought I could do everything without a coordinator. I am so happy our venue required one and we chose Lisa. She quickly proved herself to be one of our most valuable vendors, and I probably would have pulled my hair out without her. We used her for the month-of service, but she was always available and very quick to respond to any questions I had long before our month officially started. She really seems to know everyone in the industry and pointed us in the direction of some fantastic other vendors, which saved me a lot of time. Lisa has a no-nonsense attitude on top being extremely detailed; she will make you consider things you would have never imagined, resulting is a smooth and totally worry-free wedding day. If you think you don't need a coordinator, you are wrong. You need Lisa!

    Lisa came highly recommended by our wedding venue, the Ritz Carlton. We hired her about 4 months prior to the wedding and it was the best decision we made. Lisa is incredibly knowledgeable about weddings, the process, all the small details you would not even think of, vendors, etc. She listened to what WE wanted for our wedding, made GREAT suggestions (she really knows what she is talking about), kept us on track, and made our wedding day P-E-R-F-E-C-T… honestly, it was flawless. The vendors she recommended were amazing, reliable and perfect for what we were looking for. And my parents got to feel like they were guests at the wedding (not stressed out) which they REALLY appreciated. If you want a wedding coordinator, she is the best- you will not be disappointed. And soooo reasonably priced for all the work she does. If there were 10 stars on this survey, she would get 10s across the board.
    LISA- thank you for making our wedding day perfect, beautiful, stress free and more than we could have hoped for , Love Lisa & Scott

    Came highly recommended by our hotel at the St Regis, Lisa Simpson is a fantastic and talented wedding coordinator. We hired her for 2 month service coordinating package for both ceremony and reception, but you also get unlimited emails with her starting from the day you book, providing you with her suggestions and recommendations on vendors. I highly recommend her to any bride for your wedding day. It was the best decision we made and we couldn't be happier with the outcome. She is extremely meticulous and she does exactly what you wish for. She took care of things for us that we didn't even consider ourselves and she made our wedding day flawless and perfect. Everything ran so smoothly and she was SOOOO good at dealing with situations that came up at the last minute and even emergencies during our reception!!! Our wedding was huge, 300 guests, and she really handled the crowd extremely well. She made it seem so easy and was extremely happy and friendly with all our guests. We had guests come up to us during and after the wedding saying what a great coordinator we had!!! She worked so well with our entire bridal party and our family members, communicating to them when it's time to take the stage for the speech, etc. She also communicated extremely well with all our vendors during the months leading up to it and more importantly, on the day of. She has worked with so many vendors that she practically knows everyone in the wedding industry in orange county!!! she has about 15+years of experience so you KNOW you are in GOOD HANDS. she has great suggestions, great recommendations, and definitely listen to what she says! she made our beautiful wedding at the st. regis extremely memorable and it was so stress-free and filled with fun memories. I HIGHLY recommend Lisa Simpson for your wedding!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH, LISA!!!! You made our wedding day so memorable - Michelle and Matt

    Hiring Lisa as my wedding planner is, by far, the best decision I have ever made. She is incredibly knowledgeable about wedding planning and covers every single detail. She also has great connections with different vendors in Orange County, such as DJs, photographers and florists. She has also been incredibly accomodating to my fiance's and my work schedules and is okay with planning our meetings after 4pm. She is worth every penny - and more!

    Where do we begin, we loved her! My husband and I chose her two month of coordination package, would not have chose less. In the beginning of our planning, my husband and I were not sure we even needed a coordinator but she sold herself well...turned out we definitely needed an experience, level-headed, non-emotionally involved person during the process. We had met with one other coordinator but found we clicked with Lisa best and liked her advice. Lisa had great ideas, was very organized and detail oriented. Her personality is fun and calming; she also has a great accent! Lisa worked well with our other vendors, even vendors she had not personally recommended. We would highly recommend her.

    We decided to hire Lisa from the beginning to help out with all of the wedding plans. She did an amazing job and I would recommend her to anyone who is planning a wedding. Our wedding day was flawless unlike other wedding I have been to. She really takes the time to get to know you and go over every single detail with you. Hiring Lisa was the best decision that we made. Our wedding planning and wedding day was stress free thanks to Lisa. Thank you so much for all your hard work.

    Lisa Simpson from her blog:
    “To you who don’t know me – I am someone who you will immediately know will take the worry off your shoulders and take the control so you can relax and enjoy. I am someone you can feel at home with and as if we have known each other for years. I have been told that I am someone that will make you laugh on your day and lighten things up when needed. I am someone who understands the responsibility of what you are entrusting me with and I will be there until the end for you.”

    I have to say after working with Lisa that these self proclamations could not be more false.

    Brides: I urge you to interview other planners. There are lots out there and I would really think twice before hiring Lisa.

    If I had not been diligent on my own then our wedding would have been a complete disaster. I worked closely with our venue wedding coordinator, other vendors, and band. Yes, the band! We hired a great band and thankfully their manager worked with us for hours to create our timeline and maximize our time at the reception for the things that were important to us (this is what Lisa is for!).

    There were so many things that were very important to us that she messed up.

    Brides, its your ONE day, its simply not worth putting your trust in her hands.

    BEWARE!!!!!
