We hired Beatific Events for day-of-coordination (at the recommendation of our venue in Carlsbad) and I am SO thankful we did. Valerie and Kristyn made sure that our wedding went as smoothly and perfectly as possible without a hitch, and at an extremely reasonable price!

We received so many compliments from our guests about how we hired real professionals who were on top of everything, every step of the way, from planning through execution, and kept things running efficiently throughout the event. The excellent, thorough communication and meetings from the initial consult to the day-of put me at ease knowing that I could trust she and her team would not miss any details and would handle a lot of the behind the scenes work to take unnecessary stress off of the bride and groom. I can't thank them enough for the support and excellent organization of the vendors and timeline.

Because of Valerie and her team, we were able to focus on our friends and family and really enjoy the day without any worries that something might go wrong or fall out of place! She directed our wedding party to where they needed to be and when, and not once did I have to worry about something not going as planned.

We will always look fondly upon the day in no small part thanks to Valerie/Beatific Events' excellent guidance and services, and highly recommend that you hire them for any wedding planning/day-of-coordination in the San Diego area! THANK YOU VALERIE AND KRISTYN!!!

Valerie is professional, creative and extremely organized!
Let me put it another way: I got engaged in the end of November, and got married on February 13th... and we had about 250 guests in attendance. I had decided to DIY my wedding, and, well, needless to say I could NOT have pulled it off without Valerie's assistance! She is AMAZING!!!! You will not have any regrets if you bring her on board! To be honest, to this day my family, friends and I still talk about how beautiful the wedding and reception turned out and what a miracle it was that it pulled together so well and so quickly!... Valerie was a major part of that miracle and we are so grateful that we had her helping us along the way!!!

Valerie was the sweetest, most relatable person I've had the pleasure of working with. It felt like my friend helping out with the wedding, not a stranger. It was great.

Beatific Events helped my wedding day flow super smoothly! Valerie was caring, attentive, professional, organized, and was absolutely wonderful to work with! Beatific Events would be the ONLY wedding planners I would recommend, especially if you're looking for the BEST! My wedding day was that much more perfect thanks to the phenomenal job by Beatific Events! Thank you!!

Valerie will go above and beyond to make any bride/grooms wedding day the perfect day. She is extremely organized and detail oriented no matter what task comes her way, big or small. Valerie is so sweet, caring and her passion for weddings shines through all she does. You will not be disappointed!!!

Really bummed to be leaving this review. I had my wedding in September at The Westin and had Valerie booked for a year and a half before my wedding. It was for a partial coordination so we would connect once in awhile over the year and a half but didn’t really start working together until a couple months out, as planned. I flew to San Diego and ended up meeting with Valerie a couple months before my wedding to finalize most of the wedding plans, in person. We went thru the schedule, vendors, and saw the venue to make sure everything was set. We went thru my top priorities at the wedding, who my bridal party was and what their roles would be that day, how I wanted to flow of the wedding to be, etc. This all went well and Valerie was easy to work with. My family spent days on the seating chart, making a clear table graph of exactly where everyone was suppose to sit. We had everything organized and sent over to Valerie.
The day before my wedding, I get a text from Valerie’s assistant telling me that she would be the one helping me go through the rehearsal walk thru. I thought that was odd, but didn’t ask any questions. She said she was there to help and I wasn’t worried about it. It wasn’t until the next morning while I’m getting ready for my wedding that I find out Valerie was not coming to my wedding at all and it was just going to be her assistants. I was told by The Westin Coordinator that she double booked for my wedding day (which again was planned for a year and a half), so she couldn’t make it. Valerie never once called me, texted me, or reached out to tell me she wouldn’t be there.

The assistants were great and as helpful as they could be with day of. However, I had been communicating with Valerie for the past year and she had all the emails, seating charts, and understanding of how I wanted everything set up and to be and that was not communicated to the assistants that were there. My parents were running around before the wedding resetting the tables because the assistants did not get the table chart and were not apart of our many conversations. They didn’t know that my bridal party was suppose to stay around the dance floor for my grand entrance, so I had to coordinate that with them and tell everyone the plan before we all walked out. My mom had to be in charge of running around getting my bridal party together before walking down the aisle. There was just nothing communicated to these other two ladies. My day of coordinator at the Westin stayed later than she normally would have because she felt bad and wanted to make sure everything was perfect.

I really hate leaving this review as Valerie was always nice. This whole situation just seemed extremely unprofessional and disappointing
