We worked with Ann as our month-of wedding coordinator for our August 2025 wedding and had a wonderful experience! Ann is incredibly kind and she truly thought of everything. Her a...
ttention to detail is next level, and we were very impressed and grateful when she caught tiny mistakes in the coordinating process, including an incorrect meal, misspellings, etc. She also has many connections in the San Diego area and set us up with some of our favorite vendors. And on top of that she was wonderful with our venue and all of our other vendors on our wedding day and the time leading up to it. After our wedding, the feedback we heard the most from our guests was how “smooth and seamless the day was,” how “perfect the flow was,” and that “there wasn’t a single lull or blip.” We really have Ann to thank for that and definitely recommend working with her!
5 stars is nowhere close enough to what Ann deserves!!! From the first moment I communicated with Ann I knew I was going to be in better than good hands for my dream wedding. Ann w...
as always kind, personable, thoughtful of my opinions, and also transparent about suggestions that I wouldn’t of even considered as a first time bride. Ann felt like a big sister walking me through such a big moment in our lives leading up to our wedding day. Her coordination with the venue and all vendors was incredible and helped me feel less pressure of getting every single thing done. Her ability to create such seamless timelines for rehearsal, to ceremony, to reception is chefs kiss! I can’t forget about how my heel strap literally BROKE off and Ann came to the rescue with her mini sew kit, and I was able to dance the entire rest of the fight and my heel strap did NOT budge. Also, Ann absolutely nailed exactly how I envisioned the decorations set-up for ceremony and reception. She respected how much our cats mean to us and how we wanted them integrated in our wedding. I honestly could not imagine how our wedding experience could have gone without Ann.
I truly wish I could give Ann 100 stars because she is really THAT amazing. From providing honest guidance, to being my emotional support and an endless well of knowledge and resou...
rces, Ann is truly the best of the best. If you're even considering a coordinator, let it be Ann!!!!
5 starts isn’t enough! Ann was amazing to work with. She was always so professional, responsive, organized, and willing to share her perspective on ideas to make our wedding day a ...
dream. I’m a Projector Manager so I had high expectations of a coordinator’s ability to plan and execute. Ann exceeded all expectations and went above and beyond! 10 out of 10 stars. ⭐️ Do not hesitate to book Ann as your planner or coordinator.
Ann is literally the best, period. We booked her as our day of coordinator and she went so far above and beyond what we were expecting. She handled every request with consummate pr...
ofessionalism, communicated with the venue and our other vendors, and was a warm and reassuring presence throughout! If you're considering hiring her, DO IT.
Ann was an absolute dream of a coordinator! She came highly recommended from our DJ and our wedding venue coordinator. Even though we hired her for only month-of planning, our firs...
t meeting was 7 months before our wedding. From there, she was involved whenever we needed help (preparing for other vendor meetings, preparing for venue details meetings) all before the actual month-of our wedding. As we got closer, she helped us track vendor payments, venue layout/seating chart, list of items we're bringing, what she could bring for us, and more. She was in communication with our venue coordinator on our behalf which made things so much easier for us.
On the actual day of, she instilled such a sense of calm in both me and my husband knowing she was running things behind the scenes. If we needed something she'd get it for us, if a vendor missed something she would work to rectify it. She also packed up all of our stuff so nicely at the end of the night and made sure we got it all into our car. She really helped us make our vision come to life and helped us enjoy our wedding to the fullest extent. She was the best investment for our wedding day. I can't recommend her enough!
Bar none the best investment we made for our wedding. Book Ann, you will not regret it. We hired her for full service planning for a wedding 1.5 years out. She helped us with findi...
ng and negotiating with the venue, finding most of our vendors, talking through which things we wanted/didn't want to have happen before and during the wedding, and she made sure we didn't forget about any important details. She also helped us navigate and solve an issue we ran into with a vendor I picked. She helped with our timelines, and did so much behind the scenes stuff I'm still unaware of because she handled it so smoothly. Day of, she made sure everything went off perfectly - we had the event of the year thanks to her. She also saved us a bunch of money by providing decor that she already has and by networking with the many vendors she has good connections with - everyone in the wedding industry seems to know and love her. I can't recommend Ann enough, she is a vital part to your wedding being a success! WE LOVE ANN!!
Our Darlington House Wedding was an absolute dream, all thanks to Ann overseeing and orchestrating our big day! We booked Ann as a 'month of' planner/coordinator and her help was i...
nstrumental in making sure all our vendors, little details, and odd and ends were in line. Her guidance in the weeks leading up to our wedding made us feel well prepared and taken care of. On our day of, Ann ensured our vision came to life and anticipated all of our needs. We never had to think about what was next or checking in with vendors - she did it all! If you are looking for a Wedding Planner, look no further! We love you Ann and wish we could do it all over again and again!!
Do yourself a favor and book Ann. She was our “day of coordinator” and she was incredible and just went above and beyond. Right from the start she was checking in with us making su...
re we had our vendors picked out and a contract signed. When we didn’t have any idea where to start, she would point us in the direction of a vendor has worked with and trusts. When it got down to the final weeks, Ann was on top of all the details, confirming things with me and making sure all the vendors had a timeline and the day of she made everything run smoothly. It was such a pleasure working with Ann and such a huge relief to have someone helping me tie up all the loose ends!
I don’t even know where to begin to share how amazing and talented Ann Strobel is. Hard-working, detail-oriented, and genuine are just a few of the many many compliments we could s...
hare about Ann.
My fiancé and I got engaged in April 2020 (a month into the pandemic!) and Ann was truly a blessing as she helped us navigate the challenges of planning a wedding during a pandemic. Her wedding experience is unmatched and she provided us with invaluable recommendations for planning a wedding with the many uncertainties of COVID-19. We had no idea what we were getting ourselves into with wedding planning, but Ann always found a solution to any issue or question that arose during our planning process.
On top of all this, she provided excellent vendor recommendations. In fact, a majority of our wedding vendors were from her suggested vendor list. This immensely simplified the process of selecting wedding vendors, especially since I’m not from San Diego.
Working with Ann feels like working with a friend you’ve known for years — she is honest, a great listener, and shares invaluable input. Our wedding was finally able to take place on August 14, 2021 after having to postpone and it was well worth the wait!
Ann, thank you for being such a crucial part of our wedding experience. Not only was our wedding day flawless because of you, but we will always remember how much you cared for us and helped us navigate the immense stress of planning a wedding during the pandemic. You are a true professional and a gem of friend. Thank you again for the amazing support and guidance you provided to Matt and me.
My wedding was perfect, and I owe that to mostly to Ann Strobel!
Ann was my coordinator for the month of - I initially sought her services as a “day of” coordinator, but once I me...
t her and saw how much she could help, I booked her for the month. Worth. Every. Penny.
Since my mom lives out of state, Ann was there to come to tastings and dress fittings with me, floral appointments, and she was there to answer every little nervous question I had. She knows all the vendors and helped me find the ones who would fit my taste and my budget.
Ann thought of all the tiny details that I would have had no clue about - and she already has a ton of “props” (easels, place card display, ring bearer box, table numbers, etc.!) which saved us money and also a lot of extra hassle.
The day of the wedding, Ann was more prepared than Mary Poppins herself. When my eyelashes started to come loose, she was ready to go with her eyelash glue and toothpicks!
If you are nervous about planning a wedding and pulling it off, I highly recommend Ann to make your wedding experience as stress free (and fun!) as possible!
You know you have an amazing planner when every single vendor you talk to has nothing but praises to say about her! Ann is organized, kind, personable, and flexible. She always res...
ponded to my emails within a day or two and gave me unending recommendations. We got her for the month of planning and prior to, she gave us unlimited recommendations. A few vendors even gave us discounts just because she was our planner. The month of the wedding she took care of literally everything. I didn’t have a worry in the world the day of and everything went without a hitch! Definitely use Ann for your wedding!
If I could give Ann more than 5 stars on everything, I would. I initially hired her as a 'month of' coordinator, but quickly realized that I wanted her for the 'full service' opt...
ion. Ann is absolutely wonderful - on top of things, super organized, knows every vendor worth considering, and saves you so much time, effort, and money when it comes to researching, hiring, and coordinating other vendors. As an example, I was based full-time on the east coast while planning my San Diego wedding; as a result, it was overwhelming for me to research vendors since there were so many options. She narrowed down each list for me, within my budget, quickly understood what vibe I was going for, and helped me negotiate all of the contracts. In the end, she more than paid for herself with all of the savings that I had everywhere else. She also goes above and beyond to help personalize your special day - she made my seating place-cards (for which I received many compliments on), lent me a cake stand & serving utensils so that I wouldn't need to purchase new ones while in San Diego, and also has an array of items that brides can use for guestbook holders, vases, you name it! On top of that, she is easy going, flexible, has an amazing personality, and is generally a great person to work with. Leading up to it and on my wedding day, she took care of absolutely everything - I was never worried about my timeline; I was able to eat at both my cocktail hour and reception; everything was set up the way it was supposed to be; and at the very end, I received so many compliments about her professionalism, helpfulness, and positive energy. I would recommend her wholeheartedly.
You could not make a better choice in your wedding planning process than to choose Ann as your coordinator. She is amazing, creative, detailed and on top of everything for your big...
day so you don't have to be. Ann was there to make suggestions, talk me off a ledge if needed and coordinate with the wedding vendors to ensure everything would be running smoothly for us. Our wedding day was perfection and coming from a slightly control freak Bride that is no small feat! We honestly don't know what we would have done without her and recommend her completely to everyone. Don't be that Bride who doesn't hire a coordinator or hires one only based on cost - hire a professional - Ann Strobel!
Ann was a pleasure to work with. She is highly organized and detail oriented. She helped provide me with the wedding of my dreams. I enjoyed having someone to talk to and share ide...
as with throughout my planning process. She seemed to genuinely care about my wedding. Her fees are very reasonable and well worth the peace of mind. She is well-known in the wedding business and it was nice that she had worked with many of my other vendors. I highly recommend Ann!
Very professional and prepared for any eventuality. She's very knowledgable refers to fabulous vendors. Stayed within my budget and made it an elegant event. Truly made my day abo...
ut me and I never had to even think about the details. This was the most relaxing wedding I have ever attended and it was mine!;She's very good and books up quickly.
