Coastal Coordinates

he had an answer to every question and always put her bride and groom first. I cannot say enough nice things about Coastal Coordinates, Lindsy and her team are truly wonderful. Having a destination wedding can be stressful for so many reasons, but Lindsy took all of that stress away. You will not regret hiring Coastal Coordinates for your next wedding or event!

amily, and looking back on what was the picture-perfect day for my husband, our friends and family, we owe much of the ease and effortless calm we felt to the love and expertise shown by the CC team! Cheers to an amazing partnership!

ll the details. The two weeks leading up to the event I was in constant contact with Lindsy over multiple issues that had come up that were unforeseen . Then a Hurricane decided to arrive the day of the Wedding in August. Lindsy was thorough , honest about options and constantly looking at how to continue to have a dream wedding given every detail was now threatened. The Wedding ended up being the most memorable wedding for most of our guests as we all pivoted with the weather conditions. Lindsy worked hand in hand with the Coordinator at the Venue and the outcome was the most spectacular, magical Wedding experience for all in attendance . The Bride and Groom had the Wedding of their dreams and ended up loving the outcome better than had there not been a Hurricane. And this was only due to the hard work and creativity of Lindsy from Coastal Coordinates! I hope to be able to use her for another family wedding as it was such a pleasure working with her!

orth the fees.

planner and we were overwhelmed looking for one but we went with Coastal Coordinates and it was the best decision we could have made! Lindsy dealt with our procrastination so well, she figured us out as a couple and made the planning process as smooth as we would let her. She was quick to respond to questions and on the day I can't imagine anyone doing a better job. We threw a lot of curveballs at her and she batted 1000! If you're on the fence about having a planner I can't recommend it enough and Coastal Coordinates is the way to go!

ing was organized and even the small details were so well thought out. I didn’t have to worry about anything the day-of or after, because she had it all worked out and pre arranged. She kept me in the loop on everything and gave me me great suggestions on things that I hadn’t even thought about, from sound equipment to napkin folds. She really came through for me when the original cake vendor completely failed me, and quickly proposed an alternative cake vendor that worked out so much better logistically and taste wise. I would definitely recommend her! Especially for weddings, and all other party planning events like baby showers or anniversaries!

flaws that the untrained amateurs don’t. She is without a doubt worth every penny. My daughter had a very magical wedding brunch reception on Catalina Island that will be forever remembered. It was a dream come true. Perfect in every way because of Lindsy.

of experience. Lindsy was truly a blessing, she worked with us not only on a short timeline, was always available for late night texts- and was the quintessential wedding day fairy godmother you see in movies (think the The Wedding Planner). We had decor that didn’t arrive in time and Lindsy immediately handled the situation, provided an amazing vendor replacement-all without any involvement from myself. I trusted her and coastal coordinates irrevocably with the best day of our lives and she was the BEST VENDOR decision we made. I cannot speak enough to her professionalism, interpretive vision skills, attention to detail, genuine support and and the warm personalities of all her staff. The Coastal Coordinates Team will be the best decision of your wedding day journey (besides your fiancé!)!

tail oriented and helped my mother and I stay on track and across everything we needed in order to host 250 guests on Catalina Island for the weekend. She saw through all of my wild ideas and even helped with some big editorial decisions with her unique and very relevant taste. I feel lucky to have had her as a part of my wedding weekend and will continue to highly recommended her to all my friends.

so easy and seamless for us and I couldn't thank her enough! She truly was instrumental in helping create the best weekend of our lives! Thank you Lindsy!!! <3

e had a better experience, she made everything PERFECT! We will forever cherish all of Lindsy’s hard work and support. You truly feel how much she cares and goes above and beyond for her clients. We LOVE Coastal Coordinates!

great person all around. It was so much fun planning my wedding with Lindsy. My (now) husband and I both have demanding jobs and needed a lot of help. We specifically needed assistance in finding vendors, design, and logistics both leading up to the wedding and day of. Lindsy was available when we needed her, helped us find amazing vendors, and execute our vision overall. Thank you Lindsy and Coastal Coordinates for making our dreams come true! XOXO

(the couple) as well as most of our guests, so it was key that Lindsy be on top of everything as we were not able to physically be there for a final walkthrough, etc. She let us in on every detail and truly cared about every concern we had. Come the day of the wedding, she had a calming energy that was very much needed. There were a couple of concerns that I had the day of and she (as well as her team) instantly addressed them. We also had a major mishap with one of our vendors and Lindsy advocated for us during the wedding as well as after. She apologized on behalf of this specific vendor (when it wasn’t her fault at all) and followed up with various emails, even weeks after our wedding, to make sure that we were fairly compensated. You really don’t know how intricate the wedding planning process is until you go through it yourself and I’m so thankful that Lindsy worked with us to help make our dream wedding a reality.

short engagement (6 months) and we still thought we could pull this off alone. I’m huge on DIY but we finally reached the point in our wedding planning where we could not keep up without finding help. And it’s crazy what you don’t know about wedding planning that you really need to know. That’s where Lindsy stepped in. We weren’t required to have a outside coordinator and our venue had a coordinator but we would not have had the event we had without her. She helped bring our ideas and dreams to life while also providing her professional advice where we really needed it. Lindsy went above and beyond to keep everything running smoothly. Since our venue was a rather small space, it had to be flipped several times. The amount of coordination this took with vendors and the venue coordinator was not easy but on the day of my wedding it felt so smooth and elegant. I’m so glad that the only thing I had to worry about on the day of my wedding is if the weather would be beautiful, but even if it hadn’t I’m confident Lindsy would had a plan. If you want to enjoy the fruits of your labor after planing for months or years, you should give her a call. The only thing I regret is not calling her sooner!

on the day. She also had some great decor ideas and repurposed some ceremony flowers for the reception which helped with the budget. Also she was great working with the venue’s on-site coordinator and was able to get us a discount due to unforeseen circumstances with Covid. I was very happy and used her a second time to help plan my best friends bridal shower which was also amazing. Thanks Lindsy and coastal coordinates!

ndsy. Lindsy and her team went above and beyond to bring my vision to life. She has great relationships with some amazing vendors she recommended for us to use and we couldn’t have been happier with them. From start to finish Lindsy was organized, reliable, patient and fun! She made my wedding dreams come true and I am so grateful!

sting & recommended other unnecessary vendors the couple should hire. Our daughter called many times 2 months prior to wedding with questions &she never answered calls or said that she was to busy doing other weddings. These questions ended up getting answered by other locals working on Catalina island. During the month of wedding was little to no contact. The day wedding she arrived off boat, it was 3 hours prior to ceremony. Our daughter was in a panic, she had received last minute cancellations prior to event & caused many changes to her seating tables. She was not on island day prior to wedding &bride had to scramble to fix her table seatings. She sent the videographer home early the evening on his job. We lost recordings and speeches that were eloquently delivered on the evening of the venue. She had no right to send the videographer home as he was hired by our daughter independently and the videographer told my daughter laterhe was willing and wanted to stay over on island but party planner insisted he should leave the island right in the middle of him taping speeches. She should had consulted with my daughter but instead told him to leave . She never secured the two tier cake that we had shipped to the island. The cake disappeared after the first cake cutting and no one ever saw the cake again. Our daughter wanted it to be brought back to their suite . This was a smaller wedding cake for only 35 people vs for 130 people but this cake was ordered just for bride and groom cake cutting.The cake was then suppose to go back to their suite after the wedding reception for friends and wedding group to enjoy. It stated she would secure cake but she already left the island and never told her assistant what to do with the cake. No one got to eat the cake. It was never delivered nor knew where it went? She also said NO to mother of bride when she asked her on day of wedding to please put a bow on back of the golf cart &handed her the 2 bows. She replied I do not do this ! She finally did it when she was challenged by mother. She also said she would not take the flowers off the trellis after ceremony to put them on the receiving gift table . She told my daughter that she would only do it for an additional fee. It finally got done by someone else as we were questioning to others why was she so difficult. She was asked to put the cake topper on top of cake and even that she walked away from doing it. I finally did it , mother of bride. It took all of 2 seconds. The bride and groom were both upset during this two month prior to the wedding process with many unanswered questions and on the day of wedding with last minute surprised issues popping up but no one there to help. No Bride, Groom nor a family member should have to deal with these issues on their special wedding day. I suggest before you hire any Party Planner that you find out exactly what duties they do or not do. We regret hiring this party planner as it was an excessive amount of money to pay for very little work done and most importantly our daughter was upset during the entire process working with this planner on her wedding . We lost many beautiful memories that cannot be recaptured.

n to her calmness and kindness. She asked me what was most important to me on my wedding day and took care in making sure those things were a priority for her too. She and her team went above and beyond to make sure the day was so simple and fun for me. I didn’t have to think about one detail and had so much confidence in everything turning out perfectly. They made sure the day flowed organically, the set-up was beautiful and everything was so easy for me, my husband and all of our guests. Nothing felt rushed or stressful. Lindsy and her team delivered a day just like I had imagined! I am so grateful for Coastal Coordinates 🤍 thank you for making my wedding day such a dream!

gantly setting out our every wedding detail or corralling our giant wedding party, Lindsy and her assistant were absolute saints.

mendations and easily answered questions I had along the way. She was always readily available for any question or concern that came up. On the day of she had such a calming presence and made sure every little detail was perfect. She worked wonderfully with all of the other vendors as well. I could not have asked for a better wedding or better planner!

antly she made me feel comfortable during the process and I was so lucky to have her by my side the day of.

d so much knowledge about the Orange County area, and was ALWAYS available to us whenever we needed her. As the bride, I literally felt zero stress on our wedding day and it was truly thanks to her. Oh, and did I mention this was during the crazy COVID wedding season AND she was a brand new mom?! We are still scratching our heads trying to figure out how she nailed every single step! 100/10 I recommend working with Coastal Coordinates.

on while maintaining a positive attitude were all I could have hoped for! And I feel like I gained a friend in the process. Thank you Lindsy!! <3

located from a historic museum to a family backyard for our modified ceremony & reception, and there were some big planning gaps to fill. Lindsy dove right in; she helped us secure last minute vendors, created and reviewed the best layout for the space, and covered every last detail. She made us feel like it really WAS going to happen and we wouldn't have to sacrifice our vision in the process! When the day came, Lindsy was the first in and last to leave. She made sure everything was GORGEOUS, and kept every vendor on schedule. Call it fate or luck, we are so happy we ended up with Coastal Coordinates to make our wedding day wonderful. Trust me, you will NOT regret booking her. Just do it!
