Sweet Blossom Weddings

y kind! Her college Jasmine was great as well! Even taught my husband how to slow dance because we didn't practice lol but I can't recommend Sweet Blossom more! Also Emma's hat was amazing (:

know us on such a deep level. Midway through planning, I found out I was pregnant (our baby girl was 8 months at our June 2022 wedding). After telling Melissa, I feel like our partnership/relationship truly evolved for the better. Mom to soon-to-be mama, she had my back. When my husband wasn’t able to make the tasting prior to our wedding b/c of a work commitment, Melissa met me at our venue and saddled up right next to me at the table with kindness and guidance. I bring these little details up b/c it’s not just transactional with SBW. They’re a genuine, kind team of planners willing to do whatever it takes to bring you love story to life!

of recommendations for each vendor category. She was very helpful in helping us articulate our vision to vendors, and offered fantastic advice regarding decor, etc. She made postponing a wedding during the pandemic feel like a breeze, which is not an easy thing to do. I would absolutely recommend SBW to any couple!! THANK YOU ALL AGAIN!

t go anywhere else!

the start of our wedding coordination, Melissa provided guidance and suggestions to help our planning process move along. We were later assigned our coordinator, Emma! Emma was a fast friend and so easy to work with. We would not have had such a great day without her help. She really understood and listened to exactly what we wanted and helped tailor our special day to meet our needs. We had a meeting a few months out to determine our timeline and finalize all vendor details and communication. Emma took over all communication and relieved so much stress! On the day of, I had a bridal assistant, Mae. Mae went above and beyond to coordinate our bridal party, photos, and make sure my morning was stress free. At the event, Emma and her team set up our venue exactly as planned! It looked beautiful. She made sure we were all in the right place and the wedding went beyond smooth. Sweet Blossom are the planners you need for a perfect event.

n by so many vendors as (in their words) "the best wedding planner in San Diego." I believe it! She was so calm, kind, and patient and really helped us make the right choices for our event that helped our vision come true and respected our budget. Thank you, Melissa!

l oriented and positive throughout the entire planning process which definitely helped settle all those pre wedding nerves! During the wedding weekend she went above and beyond to ensure all of our needs were met and the day went as smooth as possible. She handled difficult situations like a pro and was extremely resourceful in resolving any issues that came up. It was such a relief to know the wedding was in such good hands. The day truly would not have been the same without the Sweet Blossom team. We are so thankful for their help and cannot recommend them enough ! ❤️

and specifically Sweet Blossom. We had Emma R., Emma B., and Mae and they made our day magical and so easy!! Anything we needed, they were there on it and even thinking of things ahead of time. If you're debating on coordinators, look no further this is the team you want on your big day!!

to anyone looking to have their wedding planning taken to the next level. Do not hesitate to call them and book them right now. Emma Rosen and Emma Broughton are the very best.

se of 1.5 years and are so thankful to have met and worked with such an awesome and experienced planner like her! We had interviewed several wedding planners but we instantly bonded with Melissa and her warm personality and authenticity. She was great to work with, communicated frequently, and helped us manage wedding priorities. We met several times either via Zoom, phone call, and in person and she also offered us to use Aisle Planner and All Seated, both professional online wedding planning sites that were easy to use for our wedding planning needs. Melissa had a great list of amazing wedding vendors that we were able to choose from/work with, many of which we had already bookmarked before speaking with her too! Melissa also helped us with our wedding design (since we are not the best with aesthetics) and did an amazing job setting up everything for our wedding and making everything look beautiful. Melissa’s team was also a big help on the wedding day and came in the clutch several times throughout the day. All of the ladies of the Sweet Blossom Weddings team were a dream to work with and cannot recommend them enough. Thank you Melissa, Jasmine, Jessica, and May again for making our wedding day a dream come true! We are forever grateful for y’all and cannot recommend Sweet Blossom Weddings enough!

layout for the wedding along with orchestrating set up and take down. She gave us so much advice and was always available to talk and meet virtually (we planned this wedding across the country!). Melissa also had a lot of little pieces that we used free of charge on the wedding day which was huge as we were traveling! On the day of Jess was my personal attendant and she allowed me to just enjoy my time while she kept me on track and held my personals and was a true ray of sunshine. She even drove myself and my bridesmaids to the venue! Truly so fortunate to have had this wonderful team by our side on our big day!

de the process seamless. She was so professional, responsive, and timely with any question or concern I had throughout the process. The day of the wedding, her team did an incredible job! The day was absolutely perfect and stress free thanks to the SBW team. I highly recommend Sweet Blossom Weddings and cannot imagine finally having the perfect day without them!

they were on the day of her wedding. It made it an easy choice when I was looking for a planner! Melissa is super responsive, helpful and great to work with! We primarily worked with Emma on her team and we can’t say enough good things about her! She went above and beyond to ensure every detail of the day was perfect - I am so thankful we were paired with her! She is super thoughtful resourceful, detail oriented, hardworking, super nice, and generally just an awesome energy to have around you during your wedding weekend. She also last minute helped us with our rehearsal dinner as well and she did a fantastic job! Thank you Emma (and day of team) for all that you did for us! We are forever grateful! Brides! Hire SBW and ask for Emma!! She will exceed all expectations!

dors. She's respected in the industry and you couldn't be in better hands with the SWB team!

e we knew Melissa was handling everything. Olivia rocked it with our bridal party. We had a HUGE wedding party (over 20ppl with kids) and she kept them on time and in line. They have a yes attitude and if there is something thats difficult they work hard to figure out the best options. Weddings are not easy and mine was at a family home, catered by a family restaurant who doesn't specialize in weddings. We know how hard Melissa and her team worked to make the day a success and we are forever grateful . Our guests continue to rave how amazing the day was and we couldn't have done it without Melissa and team. Thank you so so much! 💓

lessly. She was invaluable in vendor management and helping us with any and all questions. When we were finally able to have our big day a few months ago, she and her team took the reigns and executed things wonderfully. I would highly recommend Sweet Blossom Weddings and couldn't have imagined being able to pull it all together without them!

day-of experience. Not only is she an amazing wedding planner, but she is SO sweet. She always complimented me when she saw me dressed for the rehearsal or the wedding, she made sure everything I wanted came to fruition, and she never let me know if anything was wrong (like my altar florals breaking 30 minutes before the ceremony, which I knew NOTHING about because they fixed it before I could even find out!) My absolute favorite part about working with Sweet Blossom Weddings, and Melissa in particular, is how honest and supportive she was. Whenever I asked her opinion or asked her for advice, she offered me her suggestions and guided me in the right direction without overstepping or overriding my wishes. My family and guests all commented on how incredible she and her team were, and how calm I was as a result! Thank you Melissa + SBW, I couldn't have had such an amazing wedding without you!

My husband and I both have full time jobs, and Melissa took initiative with a lot of items which really put us at ease. If you’re looking for a planner who checks all the boxes, your search ends here!

l of our final details ensuring nothing was forgotten. Melissa is clearly passionate about what she does, communicated very well and was very accommodating as several plans changed with the uncertainty of planning a wedding in 2020. She did an amazing job coordinating with all of our other vendors to ensure everyone was on the same page and nothing was missed. On the day-of, she ensured everything was set up just as we had planned and everything was running perfectly on time. We thoroughly enjoyed working with Melissa and the talented staff she had supporting her to coordinate the wedding of our dreams. We highly recommend Melissa and Sweet Blossom Weddings to anyone looking for a friendly, organized, and creative coordinator.

wedding knowing that she had everything under control. Melissa knows San Diego and Orange County wedding venues in and out, but we ended up selecting a venue a little further away that she had never been to. She did a fantastic job of coordinating with the venue and getting to know the location, it felt like she had done dozens of events there! We got married during the pandemic and she did a great job of keeping up with the changing regulations as well. Choosing to hire Melissa as a wedding coordinator was one of the best decisions I made!

anything outside of hiring my vendors. I was able to hand Melissa all of our contracts and they helped me fine tune my vision and pulled off a flawless rehearsal and wedding day from beginning to end. Melissa and her team were my dream team, I’m am confident that every member of her team handles their events with the same level of care and expertise that she did. Thinking back on my wedding day, I couldn’t have done it at all without Her. We thank you and are forever grateful.

ruary of 2019. We were only in San Diego for three days and it rained every day, but despite the rain Mackenzie helped us to make the most of our time. She took us to a handful of stunning venues then sat down with us over coffee and went over the numbers. We ended up picking a beautiful venue and over the next year Mackenzie helped us find a team of incredible vendors for our spring wedding. Unfortunately COVID put a wrench in our plans and like so many other couples we had to postpone our wedding. Mackenzie corresponded with all our vendors to make sure our new date worked and made it so easy for us! Just a month before our new wedding date, our venue informed us they would no longer be able to deliver the wedding we envisioned. In just four weeks Mackenzie helped us find a new venue that was so much better than I ever dreamed. She put together the perfect wedding - even in the midst of a global pandemic. I will forever be grateful for Mackenzie and the team at Sweet Blossom Weddings for everything they did for us over the past year and half. Working with them not only allowed us to have our dream wedding, but they also took away so much of the stress of wedding planning and allowed us to enjoy our engagement!

ed. Me--old school mama was like we don't need no stinkin' coordinator. OH WOW was I ever wrong! Fast forward to now--I did NOTHING the entire time except walk in, sit, eat, dance, smile, & be the mother of the bride. Let me tell you the in between of 18 months. Sit back & relax... Mackenzie - Had our first call. My daughter had spoken to her a couple of times and we had an intro. First off-her voice. So soothing, so calm. Just like a butterfly that floats around, not disturbing, just a soothing voice to calm my nerves and worries. Me--like a machine gun asking her 1 million and 1 questions trying to rattle her. Nothing phased her. Impressive. She proceeded to get to know us. Likes, dislikes, expectations, what was feasible what wasn't. We ended up doing a "Month of" coordinator. Countless emails were included and she was spot on in answering anytime we emailed. She would pick up the phone and call for clarification when needed. Went about reviewing all our contracts, hotel contacts, DJ, photog, Marriott, lighting, drapery, flowers, centerpieces, candles, bridal party, bridal party drama, mama drama (not really), no bridezilla moments thank goodness, but if there would have been, Mackenzie would have soothed the bride. Covid hit and one month before the wedding, shut down. Tears, anger, frustration, but Mackenzie was there to handle contacting all the vendors. We knew the wedding industry would be decimated with this. We wanted to try and regroup and not ask for refunds if possible. That included our coordinator. She graciously offered a refund on services not rendered. Are you kidding?? She went above and beyond her role as month of coordinator. Mackenize worked with us in rescheduling. It was like herding kittens. But she did it. Got the DJ, Photog, Florist, Hair, Make up artist, & caterer & we proceeded to do an intimate event of 55 immediate family members at a private residence-socially distanced. This was a big change from 175 people originally. I can tell you--if anything went wrong--WE did not see it. We had a tight schedule between walking in, dances, toasts, speeches, dinner, appetizers, etc.and it was seamless. Seriously-I was bored I had nothing to do except enjoy! Mackenzie and her team were like ninjas!!! The were working the event but we never saw them. But if I needed something and even if I looked like I was contemplating a question, she would be right there. Like where did you come from and how did you know I needed you?? LOL!!! The professionalism, the extra love and care she provided during this VERY LONG journey made this a dream come true for my daughter and her husband and our families. You can work with a vendor who is a machine and master scheduler and be one and done or you can select SBW and know that you're being taken care of as an individual, not as a standard bride. She got to know us and felt like part of our family. In that knowledge, she was able to make things unique to us and not a cookie cutter every day wedding. For that I am forever grateful my daughter got her dream wedding, just on a smaller scale. Thank you Mackenzie and your beautiful team. We wish you the best during these trying times!! You definitely knocked it out of the ballpark for us!!

the cracks. On our wedding day, Mackenzie, Olivia and the rest of the team were so kind, helpful, and knowledgeable. These are true wedding experts, people! They handled everything. Our wedding flowed perfectly and they helped us throw the huge party that we wanted for our guests. I cannot recommend them enough.
