Every bride deserves a Rachel on their wedding day! I was stressed about my wedding day logistics and managing all the vendors, but Bliss Events made our lives so easy. They are so...
competent, professional, experienced, and kind. I couldn't believe how smooth everything went on my wedding day. Rachel was a comforting presence and I was so relaxed knowing she was on top of everything. Her assistants were also so wonderful, consistently asking me if I needed anything. I promise you will love working with Rachel and her team!
Words cannot adequately convey our appreciation to Rachel Welland for making my daughter’s wedding day a dream come true.
It was an absolute pleasure working Rachel. We hired he...
r as a month-of coordinator, but she went far and above that title. She answered every question and request we had promptly, efficiently, and cheerfully. She made the process easy and fun. Because she took the time to get to know my daughter and her wishes, Rachel's vendor recommendations were outstanding. We were beyond thrilled every single person she recommended to us.
We had an unexpected death in the family the day before the wedding, which was obviously heartbreaking and difficult. As I was trying so hard to hold myself together, it was a comfort and a relief to know that I didn’t have to worry about anything wedding-related. I knew we could count on Rachel to make everything perfect, and she did.
I was also very impressed with Rachel's assistants on the day of the wedding. Not only were they capable and helpful, but they were also kind, cheerful, and fun.
Wish I could give Rachel and Bliss Events 100 stars, they are amazing!
My now husband's family is from the Southern California area, but my husband and I were living in North Carolina while planning a wedding in San Diego. I was getting so frustrated ...
with planning and finding a couple of my last vendors and our venue required a wedding planner. In the end, we got a recommendations for Bliss Events from our venue and I am so happy that we were able to work with Rachel from Bliss Events!! She had great recommendations for the last couple of vendors and really helped with all of the details, timelines, and coordination of the vendors perfectly. She gave amazing recommendations about how the event should flow, was super organized, and on the day of the event she made sure everything ran exactly as planned. I trusted Rachel so much that the day of the wedding I was so relaxed and was able to just enjoy the day! Looking back even if the venue hadn't required a wedding coordinator, I'd book Bliss Events in a heart beat. Cannot recommend them enough. We had so many quirky ideas for our wedding and Rachel was able to make it all work! Thanks so much Rachel and Bliss Events :)
It was both our second weddings and we wanted it to be special and truly "us". A destination beach wedding at The Del Coronado calls for only the best in wedding planning even if i...
t was a wedding for 60! Korie from day one was like our family. We touched base on our vision, what we wanted, and incorporating my teen children. Korie not only helped us choose some amazing vendors, but supplied some great ideas for activities on the Terrace for our day as well. We worried about nothing on our day and everything ran seamlessly from start to finish. Korie has little touches that are personal along the way you just don't find elsewhere. Korie and the Bliss team will be our top recommendation to anyone who asks.
We feel so lucky to have Bliss Events as one of our trusted partners here at Paradise Point Resort. It’s always such a pleasure working with Rachel, Korie, and their amazing team! ...
They’re consistently organized, punctual, and calm throughout the entire planning process. Their attention to detail and clear communication make every event run flawlessly from start to finish. They keep everyone on schedule and remove all stress from the day, which is no small feat! It’s a true joy working with a team that knows their couples so well and brings such positive energy to every celebration. We’re always thrilled to partner with them and highly recommend Bliss Events to any couple looking for a seamless, stress-free wedding experience.
Korie was nothing short of phenomenal. We got engaged in June 2025, picked our "destination" wedding venue in San Diego in August and got married 11/07/25. A very short timeline bu...
t Korie made the experience enjoyable, stress free and handled everything from the vendors and ceremony timelines down to having scissors and tide pens on the wedding day. I couldn't brag more about the great job Korie and her team did.
I don’t know how people plan a wedding without Korie and her team! Working with them was truly an incredible experience. Everyone I know who got married before me warned that weddi...
ng planning would be stressful, chaotic, and overwhelming—but my experience was the complete opposite.
From start to finish, the process felt easy, organized, and genuinely exciting. I trusted Korie completely; she understood our aesthetic perfectly and made the entire vision come to life. I felt so comfortable letting her make choices for me, even when I wasn’t sure what I wanted myself.
She also connected us with the best vendors, all of whom made our day absolutely amazing. I can’t thank Korie and her team enough for making our wedding not just beautiful, but enjoyable every step of the way.

d her experience was evident. She had phenomenal vendor recommendations (who all spoke so highly of her!), would help review our contracts to see if there were any additional items/considerations we should ask for, gave us an awesome checklist so we felt confident nothing would slip through the cracks, and had incredible insights as we were making decisions on the feel and format of our wedding. She was always super responsive and willing to hop on a call. Our wedding day was so beautifully executed by Ashley and her onsite team so we could truly enjoy it with our closest family and friends. I highly recommend working with Ashley and Bliss Events – she truly helped us plan the wedding of our dreams!

support in the year leading up to our wedding, and once the month of our wedding came we were able to really relax and enjoy every second of the process. We had the most amazing wedding and it would not have happened without her.

control. She recommended tons of vendors, made incredibly detailed timelines, reviewed our contracts, coordinated with our vendors, talked to us on the phone repeatedly, gave advice, etc.
On the wedding weekend (Rachel and her team helped us with both our welcome dinner and the wedding day itself), they really went above and beyond. From driving to my grandma's house to pick up items, to fixing our flower arrangements, to continuously reminding us to eat - we honestly felt like I was able to enjoy the day 100% without worrying about any logistics.
So, so grateful for having such an incredible team for our wedding!

hel is the definition of detail-oriented, organized, and knowledgeable, every step of the planning process was smooth, stress-free, and actually enjoyable because of her guidance.
She kept everything on track and communicated with us clearly and consistently, making sure we never felt overwhelmed. Her timeline, vendor coordination, and eye for detail were flawless. On the day of the wedding, we didn’t have to worry about a thing. Rachel had everything under control, and we were able to just relax and enjoy our day.
If you're looking for a wedding planner who’s professional, supportive, and truly passionate about what she does, Rachel at Bliss Events is the one. We can't thank her enough for making our day so magical!
Bliss Events was an absolute DREAM to work with, and our wedding planner Korie Younger was PHENOMENAL!
Korie is fabulously talented: organized, efficient, professional, determine...
d, attentive—all while being incredibly warm and supportive. Her 20 years of experience are apparent in every aspect of her planning and execution.
We were so comfortable with her right away. I loved how from the very first interview she showed us an example of what her organizational system looked like: personalized Google Sheets for every client with everything they need to know all neatly arranged in one place. Amazing peace of mind for the Type-A bride or groom!
Korie also has wonderful working relationships with all the most incredible vendors. Her recommendations really helped us to form the best, most cohesive team. Everyone, from our photographer, videographer, and DJ, to our florist, bakery and string quartet, took the most excellent care of us. She knows the best of the best and it created such a smooth atmosphere because of their experience working harmoniously together with Korie.
Her management skills on the day of our wedding really blew us away. We didn’t have to worry about a single thing because she was the point of contact for all questions and it allowed us to fully savor the moment.
Korie the kind of thoughtful that goes above and beyond. At the end of the night, she topped everything off by making no less than 6 wagon trips (by herself!) to bring 10 of our reception flower arrangements, and hundreds of rose petals to decorate our wedding night suite for the most beautiful, romantic welcome ever.
I could not recommend Korie and Bliss Events more highly. They truly gave us a fairytale wedding at The Del. Thank you for making my childhood dream come true!
Hiring Korie as our wedding planner was, without question, the best decision we made for our wedding. I want to be clear: if you're considering working with her, book her now. Here...
's why:
First, her vendor recommendations are exceptional. She has strong relationships throughout the industry and knows exactly who will deliver quality work within your budget. Every vendor she recommended was professional, reliable, and talented - saving us countless hours of research and uncertainty.
The planning process with Korie was seamless. She created a detailed timeline that kept us on track without ever feeling overwhelmed. She's incredibly organized but also flexible, adapting her approach to match our style and needs. When we faced decisions or challenges, she presented clear options with pros and cons, helping us make confident choices.
What truly sets Korie apart is her ability to enhance your vision while keeping it authentically yours. She suggested creative elements that made our wedding even more special, but never pushed her own agenda. She listened to our ideas and refined them with her expertise.
On the wedding day itself, her value was immeasurable. She handled everything - from vendor coordination to timeline management - with remarkable efficiency. Because of her, our entire family was able to fully enjoy the day without worrying about a single detail. When unexpected issues arose (as they always do), she resolved them so smoothly that we didn't even know about them until later.
Korie is exceptionally good at what she does, and it shows in every aspect of her work. She's direct, professional, and genuinely invested in making your wedding the best it can be. Most importantly, she delivers results. Our wedding was even better than we imagined, and that's directly because of Korie's expertise, dedication, and hard work.
If you want a planner who will truly have your back, keep you on track, and ensure your wedding day is exceptional, Korie is your person. I cannot recommend her strongly enough.
I know you're prepped to have something "go wrong" on our wedding day, but truly nothing went wrong on our wedding day thanks to Ashley & Bliss Events. We loved every single vendor...
she recommended and she made the whole process seamless. Made our wedding experience way less stressful and allowed us to truly enjoy the day and planning process.
WOW!! That is what you will be thinking the entire time you work with Ashley and Bliss Events. This team is like no other and will make your special day perfect. I truly could not ...
have done my wedding without them. They will keep you organized and make sure your checklist is complete. Thank you so much!!
PARTNER WITH KORIE @ BLISS EVENTS AND YOUR WEDDING WOES WILL NO LONGER BECOME A THING!
We had an absolutely amazing experience planning our wedding with Korie. Where do I even beg...
in! Let's be honest - planning a wedding is freaking stressful. I've planned many different events including huge corporate-related events and nothing beats the planning of your own "once in a lifetime" event. With that said, I just KNEW I had to partner with a planner that not only knew what they were doing but was also kind of OCD-organized like me. I'll tell you, my friends, after vetting 8 different planners, Korie came in the strongest for the following: 1. BUDGET 2. experience 3. approachiveness.
Out of the 8 planners, Korie was THE ONLY ONE who was able to visually share with me Google Excel templates and examples of how she would plan, keep track of, and explain in detail how she would keep us aligned throughout our wedding planning timeline. The other vendors, needless to say, only shared with me verbally "Oh yeah, we track things through Google Docs and Excel..." but had nothing to show me which only told me one thing - they had something to hide! Not Korie or Bliss Events. Transparency was the constant thing that was exemplified throughout our planning experience which allowed us to stay on top of it the entire way through, and all with a smile on my face. Suffice it to say I did NOT experience any bride meltdowns during my conversations with Korie.
From the start of the planning almost 14 months before the wedding, Korie was already setting up time to meet with me and begin those strategy conversations. Most "partial planners" would wait until the final 3 months to help you plan, but not Korie! Her goal was to have you pretty much ready to go 3 months before the wedding. That frame of mind is what reassured me that I was in the right hands. The month leading up to the wedding, Korie took it up a full notch by taking on the reigns and working directly with each of our vendors to ensure everyone understood their arrival and set up times as well as break down times. She also ensured that our transportation vendor arrived at the hotel to pick up our guests and drop them off at our ceremony location right on time! There were no shuttles or guests for that matter who took the shuttles who were late to our ceremony! On the day before the wedding, Korie partnered with our ceremony location day-of planner to coordinate the ceremony in a very organized manner. We were able to get through everything within the 1 hour allotted timeframe as well! Our entire wedding party complimented how well-organized and lovely Korie was.
On the day of the wedding, Korie went full send on wedding planning. Ensuring every single vendor arrived on time to set up and take care of us, even down to our hair stylist/MUA vendor. She also arrived early at our reception venue to drop off the items we brought down for the wedding and she and her team along with our vendors started setting up the venue accordingly. She also oversaw the other vendors, ensuring things were getting done and double-checking to make sure that the table decor was being set up properly. During the ceremony, she came in clutch as a backup photographer since we only were able to hire 1 photographer within our budget, and captured amazing photos of me before, during, and after walking down the aisle. During our reception, she continued to keep everyone organized by ensuring cocktail hour and reception needs were being met, including, coordinating my husband and I with taking photos at each table within a reasonable timeframe that also allowed for the both of us to eat and finish our dinner! Suffice it to say, our entire wedding timeline was met accordingly, all thanks to Korie.
We cannot thank Korie enough for all the hard work she has done to help us bring our wedding vision to life, while still having fun. If you're looking for an experienced, no BS, but fun wedding planner - look no further. Korie is here to the rescue.
Working with Korie and her team was hands down the best decision in the wedding process. There is not one part of my day that wasn't seamless because we were in such good hands. ...
The attention to detail, guidance, and professionalism was top notch. I have already referred her on and will continue to encourage brides to seek her out! Thank you Korie for making my dream day come to life!
I've been meaning to write this review since my daughter's August wedding! I can't say enough great things about Rachel from Bliss Events. We hired her to help with the last mont...
h and day-of details and she was so incredibly organized, professional, calm, friendly and helpful! She has a wonderful reputation in the business and every time we told a vendor that we were working with Rachel we heard "you are in GREAT hands! " And that was completely true! Every vendor that she recommended to us was amazing and all contributed to making our event exactly what we had hoped for. Rachel kept us on task and moving forward in the last stages of planning without adding any extra stress. On the day of she was so helpful, handling the little "emergencies" that arose with ease and we were able to focus solely on enjoying the wedding and our guests! I highly recommend hiring Rachel!
We worked with Korie from Bliss Events to plan our wedding at L'Auberge Del Mar. She provided full service planning since we were planning a wedding across the country. Korie is ex...
tremely detail oriented and her timelines and templates were very helpful during the planning process. She had close relationships with vendors and could quickly text them for fast responses whenever we had a question.
She was very experienced with the wedding venue and provided us with the vision of what would work for that specific location. The timeline was specifically tailored to fit the space.
Korie really shined during the wedding day with how she made our day as stress free as possible. Along with her team of assistants, Korie took care of every detail we thought of and more. She really knows how to keep the bride and groom focused on enjoying the day rather than worrying about the logistics. We really couldn't have done it without her!
Korie with Bliss Events was absolutely incredible to work with! We worked with her as a partial planner for our wedding and she made the whole process so easy and organized. She re...
commended amazing vendors, solved problems before we even knew they existed, and overall made our wedding day flow so seamlessly so we could enjoy our perfect day!!
We had a wonderful experience with Bliss Events and Ashley as our planner! We planned our wedding from afar and Ashley was integral in our process. She met with us early on to unde...
rstand our vision and to help break down what we would need to do for planning. She had wonderful vendor recommendations that aligned with our budget. She was extremely responsive when questions arose. In the last weeks before the wedding she was imperative for nailing down small details, and took care of all of the vendor coordination for us. Our wedding day went extremely smoothly because of her, and we enjoyed every minute of it. We would strongly recommend her to anyone in need of a wedding planner.
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 togeth...
er” 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!
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 s...
moothly - 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!!!
Korie at Bliss Events is an amazing wedding coordinator!
Throughout our many months of planning, Korie offered support, strategies, and excellent access to the best vendors. She ...
helped me solidify my vision for our wedding and absolutely formed that vision into a reality. Her skills, sensitivity, attention to detail, responsiveness and creativity made our wedding everything I hoped for and more.
On our wedding day itself, Korie and her assistants were front and center, handling everything, which allowed me to stay calm and truly enjoy the day. Korie kept the event running seamlessly and on schedule, and handled every little hiccup professionally and quickly, She even found time to capture some great photos and video to tide us over until the professional shots come in.
Truly the best!!!
Wow, Rachel is the best wedding coordinator out there! She is so organized, is very responsive to questions, and provides her opinion in a calm, kind, careful way. When she took ov...
er our wedding planning during the month of our big day, we immediately felt at ease, as she communicated with all of our vendors and guided us on what we still needed to get done. At the rehearsal and wedding, she was so great at leading our families and wedding party, especially our young flower girls and ring bearer who didn't know exactly what to do. Rachel worked tirelessly on our wedding day to make sure everything was running smoothly and all items were where they needed to be. It took a huge weight off of us! I very highly recommend her to anyone planning a wedding. Thank you so much for all your help, Rachel!
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 planning time. 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.
Ashley from Bliss Events is outstanding. She was easy to communicate with, incredibly responsive, had excellent vendor referrals, and ultimately made our wedding planning + wedding...
experience a dream.
I am highly picky and interviewed 8 different planners in San Diego and can say with confidence that Bliss / Ashley are THE BEST. It is so lovely to know that you can relax on your wedding day (and every day leading up to it) because someone like Ashley has your back.
Thank you so much Ashley and team!!!! Our wedding was everything we could have asked for and more. We love you!!
As a professional wedding photographer, I've worked with hundreds of wedding coordinators, but this is the first time I've felt compelled to leave a 5-star review. Rachel, the owne...
r of Bliss Events, is truly exceptional. I had the pleasure of working with her last Sunday, June 9, 2024, at the Coronado Island Marriott Resort & Spa for a beautiful small wedding with a Korean couple.
Despite the ceremony being in Korean, which I didn't fully understand, Rachel orchestrated everything seamlessly and beautifully. She was incredibly thoughtful, ensuring the couple had ample opportunities for stunning wedding photos without missing any part of their reunion, cocktail hour, or reception.
Initially, the couple booked me for just 4 hours, thinking it would suffice. Rachel, however, reviewed their timeline and advised them that they needed 6 hours of coverage. She then reached out to me to adjust the booking. This level of foresight and communication is rare and invaluable.
Rachel's organization and communication skills are outstanding. She always had people ready for group shots and ensured the couple could step away briefly for photos without missing out on their special moments. She even managed the vendor meals perfectly, pulling us aside to eat quickly and get back to work, unlike other coordinators who often make us wait until the guests are served, causing us to miss important moments.
Working with Rachel was a relief. Her ability to balance the needs of the couple, guests, and vendors is unparalleled. I highly recommend Rachel and Bliss Events for any wedding or event coordination.

Rachel is the best wedding planner!!!!!!
While planning for wedding, I was lost what to do and how to do, but she guided me and provided all vendor suggestions and wedding tips. ...
It was very helpful and useful, so I saved times & money a lot!
If you are working with Rachel, you will be stress-free and focus on what you need to do. Especially wedding day, you don't need to worry about anything! Everything is ready and set up before you realize!!!! (Even all of my wedding vendors were surprised and mentioned how amazing she is.)
I already recommended Rachel to guests & friends who are planning for the wedding!!
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 wit...
h 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!

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!
I wish I could give Ashley and Bliss Events a million-star review!
We hired Ashley from Bliss Events after receiving a referral from a family friend - we knew we would need the he...
lp as we were planning our wedding in San Diego, but currently reside in Wisconsin. Ashley's professionalism, attention to detail, willingness to work around the clock (and being in a different time zone!) is absolutely unmatched. She helped us with the contracts and every detail and sentence in the contracts to ensure everything was flawless the day of our wedding. Planning a wedding is hard enough, but doing it in a different state, in a different time zone is even tougher. Ashley made the entire planning process feel more organized and less stressful.
I can't imagine how challenging it would have been the month before the wedding, without Ashley. She confirmed with all of our vendors the scheduling and necessary details so they too were prepared far before the date. She spoke with them on our behalf but always confirmed our wants and needs beforehand. We hired her to help with our rehearsal dinner as well, and what a relief it was to have her there. The flow of the night was so much more efficient with her there.
I was told to anticipate something going wrong on the wedding day (by friends who recently got married) and to prepare for the stress. When I tell you that the wedding was perfect, I mean it. All of it is due to Ashley's over-communication with us, our vendors, family and friends, and organizational skills. It was the most magical day, and I knew Ashley always had our back and consulted her frequently throughout the day when I needed the reassurance that everything was on schedule. It was the most perfect day. Literally everything went better than I could have ever imagined.
If you're in the market for a wedding planner, look no further. We can't thank Ashley and Bliss Events enough for making this day one we will (and all of our guests too!) remember and cherish forever.
I recently was hired for a dance performance at a wedding at the Coronado Community Center. Korie from Bliss was the coordinator and what a professional! I have worked many weddi...
ngs and events and the planner is the "KEY" to everything! She was smiling the whole time, quick with all responses and dierctions, super organized, very detail oriented, knowledgeable and easy to work with. She even steped in when there was a prop placement need. Above and beyond! I really appreciated the email with all the directions and layout for the entertainers. That little detail makes a world of difference for an event. Wonderful experience! Loved Korie Younger :)
We were recently married at The Prado in Balboa Park, and Rachel from Bliss Events helped make all of our Wedding dreams come true! Rachel was absolutely wonderful to work with and...
we cannot thank her enough for keeping us on track while planning and for making the day of go so smoothly! From the moment we met with Rachel it was clear that she was an expert at her job and really listened to what our vision was for our special day was. We created a custom wedding planning package where Rachel gave us a monthly checklist of tasks to take care of and an accompanying list of vendor recommendations, we then checked in with Rachel each month and kept her up to date, and then in the last month she coordinated with all of the vendors and also provided day of coordination. The checklist was an amazing way to keep us on track, and also not feel overwhelmed with all of the tasks to complete and vendors to contact. The vendor list Rachel provided was great because we had a few options to choose from, but we knew that these vendors had also worked with Rachel before and came highly recommended. I cannot emphasize enough how professional and organized Rachel was and working with her was so easy! She made sure everything we had envisioned on our wedding day was planned and the day itself was well organized and stress free for us because Rachel had thought of everything so we could simply enjoy! Our wedding was even more perfect than we could have imagined! If you are getting married, we would highly recommend working with Rachel and Bliss Events!
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!
Ashely was amazing to work with and we are so glad we decided to work with her and Bliss for our August 2023 wedding! She was extremely responsive and so easy to communicate with t...
hroughout the whole process. She was clear and organized and helped us think through all of the many decision that needed to be made. She recommended great vendors and always had more if needed. Ashley was great about gut checking if my design ideas would go together and helped to clear up any issues with vendors. She was so kind and positive, and kept me calm and focused throughout the process and was very calm and level headed when helping us work through a stressful looming hurricane decision. Day-of Ashley took care of everything and we had the best day! We had an overall wonderful experience and would highly recommend!
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. As...
hley 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 me to fully enjoy our wedding and be present.
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!
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 experien...
ce 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!
I had the absolute pleasure of working with the best wedding planner, Korie, for our special day, and I cannot recommend her enough. From the moment we first connected, I knew we w...
ere in good hands.
Korie's attention to detail and organization skills were exceptional. She left no stone unturned in ensuring that every aspect of our wedding was planned and executed flawlessly. From the initial consultations to the final touches on the big day, she was meticulous in her approach. She took the time to truly understand our vision and brought it to life in the most extraordinary way. I knew I could trust her to make our wedding day perfect.
Korie’s creativity and vision were unparalleled. She took our ideas and preferences and elevated them to new heights. I cannot emphasize enough to trust Korie and her vendor recommendations, she knows all type of vendors for all types of budgets.
Throughout the entire planning process, Korie was a true professional. She was always available to answer our questions, offer guidance, and provide reassurance. She had a calming presence that helped alleviate any stress or concerns we had. She was not just a wedding planner, but also a trusted confidant and advisor. She listened to our ideas and concerns, and always had a solution or suggestion to address them. Her expertise and experience in the industry were evident in every decision she made.
On the day of the wedding, Korie and her team worked tirelessly to ensure that everything ran smoothly. They managed all the logistics, coordinated with vendors, and ensured that every detail was in place. They were the behind-the-scenes superheroes who made sure that we could fully enjoy our wedding day without any worries or distractions. They went above and beyond to ensure that every guest felt welcomed and taken care of. From the seamless flow of events to the impeccable timing of each moment, they orchestrated everything with precision and grace.
I cannot thank Korie enough for her incredible work. She truly exceeded our expectations and made our wedding day a dream come true. Her passion, dedication, and expertise were evident in every aspect of the planning process and the execution of the event. She created an experience that was not only beautiful and memorable, but also reflective of our love story and personalities.
If you are looking for a wedding planner who is talented, professional, and dedicated to creating a truly memorable event, look no further. Korie is simply the best in the business. Her ability to bring a vision to life, their attention to detail, and their exceptional organizational skills set them apart.
Thank you, Korie, for making our wedding day the most magical and unforgettable experience of our lives. We are forever grateful for your expertise, guidance, and the incredible memories you helped us create. You are truly a master of your craft, and we cannot recommend you enough to any couple looking to have the wedding of their dreams!!!
I worked with Rachel at Bliss Events for my wedding and had an incredible experience working with her!! Rachel's organization, professionalism and knowledge of the industry were in...
valuable during the planning process. When I began working with Rachel, I had many of the vendors already booked, so I decided that having month-of coordination was best for me and it ended up being perfect. I still had a few vendors that I needed to book and Rachel shared her recommendations with me so quickly after we signed our contract. She has connections and amazing relationships with vendors which made for a fantastic and easy experience! Rachel is so organized and has helpful planning worksheets that she shared with us or met with us about that helped us address everything prior to the wedding day. Rachel took over all communication with vendors at the critical time, so that I could enjoy more of the month leading up to the event and she was able to coordinate everything on the day more easily given she had already communicated with the vendors.
I HIGHLY recommend Rachel and Bliss Events!!! I couldn't have planned the most amazing day of my life without her!!
Korie at Bliss was my planner for my July 2023 wedding at L'Auberge Del Mar, and she was a DREAM! I had actually anticipated that something would go wrong the day of the wedding, o...
nly because that's what I had been told by my friends and family who had been married, was that something inevitably goes wrong on your wedding day.
I really didn't need to worry about it though, because Korie and her team have this thing locked down. Truly, not one thing went wrong. Every vendor she recommended was fabulous- especially Sharon at Organic Elements, DJ Jimmy Grizzley, Raphael's Party Rental Lounge Furniture, Ritas Chiavari white aisle runner, and all of her wonderful assistants.
I trusted Korie to make certain judgement calls about the wedding knowing that she is a pro at this, and I am so glad I did. She truly knows how to make the day run smoothly and she will make everything happen according to plan. My husband and I couldn't have imagined a more perfect day. Thank you Korie and Bliss, we will never forget you!
Hiring Rachel, the owner of Bliss Events, was one of the best decisions we made while planning our daughter’s wedding.
I could go on forever about how much we adore and appreciate ...
Rachel’s expertise. She is one of the most organized people I’ve ever met which made for a seamless planning period and wedding day.
Leading up to the wedding, Rachel asked so many good questions including many things we hadn’t even thought of. Her kindness and knowledge put our minds at ease. We knew our daughter’s big day was in good hands because Rachel is so reliable.
Rachel was the best point-person on the day of the wedding. She was prepared with whatever we needed; band aids, Advil, scissors, hot glue gun, bobby pins and most importantly a reassuring attitude that made us confident that all the details were being handled. We followed a detailed wedding day timeline that Rachel prepared which helped us enjoy every moment of the wedding day – stress free!
We knew we hit the jackpot with Rachel when all of our vendors and even some of our guests mentioned how impressed they were by her and her team. Rachel flawlessly executed our wedding day plans.
Reflecting on the day, we don’t believe a single thing went wrong… and if it did, Rachel took care of it without us ever having to worry about it. Rachel made sure everything was in order, nothing was forgotten and we were able to sit back and enjoy such a special day. Thank you, Rachel!
