Nicki Sent on 06/29/2023Gina is amazing!
Gina deserves 10 of out 5 stars! She was absolutely amazing for our La Valencia wedding in June! Throughout the entire process she responded to emails, calls, and texts promptly and professionally. As soon as we got engaged, there's a million things that go through your mind of what needs to get done. Gina was so helpful to break down for us when certain things needed to get done to make the process enjoyable, fun and not overwhelming. Right when we hired her (about a year before the wedding), she was all over getting our venue tours scheduled and vendors secured. As we live out of state, it was so helpful to have Gina's guidance on vendors! There's so many out there and she pointed us in the right direction on all of them! She has connections and recommendations to the BEST in San Diego! During the planning process she helped us with the big stuff all the way down to the little stuff with her attention to detail, ideas and creativity! As the big day approached, she worked with all the vendors directly, which made things so much easier on us! When the big day arrived, everything went seamlessly! Gina kept everyone and everything on track, while also being right there for me whenever I needed a bobby pin, a drink or a deep breath. It was like she was everywhere at once, but in a behind the scenes kind of way. People always say wedding planning is so stressful. For us it was not at all, and we honestly have Gina to thank for that and for making our one year engagement and wedding planning such a special year for us! Couldn't recommend her enough! She is worth her price and much more! -

The best ever. Don't do anything else until you hire Gina!!
When we first started planning our wedding, we hired the venue first. Our venue required a coordinator and we had no clue where to start, so we filtered by highest ratings and sent out a bunch of messages to coordinators late at night as we browsed online. We received a message back from Gina within half an hour. Our minds were blown... like WHAT? Who is this superstar who is this responsive? She sent us info and we promptly set up a time to talk during business hours. In the first 5 minutes of our call while Gina was talking, I remember being so impressed with her enthusiasm, professionalism, and friendliness that I wrote a message to my then-fiancé to hire her then and there.
From a great first impression to the final goodbye at the end of our wedding reception, Gina was more than we could've ever hoped for in planning our special day. She guided us through the planning process with such care and love... I mean she is just so much fun to work with! We hired her for month-of services and we really are so grateful for making that decision. If you’re able to hire her to design and plan your entire wedding, do it! She will create something amazing.
We hired many of her recommended vendors because we knew they had to be top-notch to run in her circle, but also because many of them also had a "Gina discount" which helped our budget! Gina took care of making sure all of our vendors were on the same page and we honestly didn't have to worry about contacting any of them once we hired them. She took it from there and pulled together the wedding of our dreams! She is so creative and well-organized and truly, we couldn’t have had such a perfect wedding experience without her. She even came up with an idea to display our 1000 Japanese origami cranes on a cake swing. Everyone was thrilled to see our swinging cake and our cranes displayed so beautifully.
I spent some special time with her as she was with me alone in those last moments before I walked down the aisle. The ease and calm she extended to me really let me take in my moment and head down that aisle with true happiness! Hire her!SD Weddings by Gina's reply:
Thank you so much, Lisa! So very kind of you! Wishing you both the best in your journey together! 💜 -

Liz A. Sent on 10/06/2020The best wedding planner ever!!!!!!
Gina is a truly amazing wedding planner and person. She worked with myself, my now husband, and family for over a year planning our wedding! She was able to find us some amazing vendors that were within our budget but still exactly what we we were looking for. I will also say when I interviewed our vendors, they were extremely appreciative that Gina had recommended them and they were very excited to be working with someone like her! Our wedding was supposed to be April 19, 2020, however on March 17 our venue had to cancel our wedding due to all the COVID-19 restrictions that went into place. Gina, my husband and family fully took care of everything as I was pretty devastated and they were able to fully rearrange everything for our new date on August 1, 2020. Gina was so calm and positive, and took charge during this unknowing time to make sure that we felt good about our new wedding date and she was able to get all of our vendors on that same day as well! Our wedding day was more beautiful and perfect than what we even imagined and we were able to have an amazing time and enjoy the day thoroughly because she handled every single thing without us even knowing! Gina’s genuine energy, professionalism, and positivity throughout the entire process made this experience truly amazing and if it wasn’t for her, our day would not have been as perfect as it was! -

Adrienne Sent on 09/30/2019Best wedding Planner ever!!
I spent the last 13 months planning my wedding with Gina and I must say she has truly become a good friend of mine.
I knew she was the perfect person for me (an anal retentive, bit of a control freak type of lady...lol) when I found her profile late one night at work, filled out the inquiry form, and she responded in less than 10 minutes. Did I mention it was after 10:30pm? That pretty much sums up the type of person Gina is! Hardworking, never slacks with communication, and always willing to do whatever she can for clients.
As I went through the process, I could tell I was working with the best in San Diego because anytime I mentioned her name, vendors would go on and on about how great she was. There were several times I was able to get special discounts just because she was my planner. Gina is so knowledgeable about the wedding field, has the best connections, and isn't afraid to try new things. I loved that she always gave her honest opinion and always gave suggestions for things she thought I'd like. I dodge a lot of bullets because of her.
My wedding day was everything I envisioned and I know there was no way that could have been possible without Gina. People kept saying how surprised they were at how calm I was, but it was only because I knew I could trust Gina to make sure everything was perfect, even if issues popped up (which did happen but I knew NOTHING of them).
If you are looking for someone to help create the vision you have for your wedding and take the stress away from you so that you can enjoy your day.... look no further, Gina is your girl! She will always have a special place in my heart for helping me create one of the best days of my life! -

Adriana Sent on 06/04/2019Gina is Amazing!
Our wedding was amazing and everything went smoothly thanks to Gina. I had planned much of the wedding on my own and was looking for a day of coordinator. When I met Gina I was sorry that I did not book her when I first started planning because I think It would have made the planning experience less stressful and more enjoyable. Especially since she has so much experience and is beyond organized (Exactly what I was looking for since I am a bit OCD). Although we only hired her for a “Day of Coordinator”, she was available months before and even came along to the food tasting at the venue. I am so happy she was around to help out with everything. If you are looking for a wedding planner, book her now, you will not be sorry.

Mark Sent on 05/11/2018Where do I begin? My husband and I hired Gina to coordinate our wedding. She has a few packages and I honestly can't remember which package we chose because her service was beyond what we paid for. We had a few last minute changes and it went so smooth. Gina was always prompt to follow up and provided insight and ideas to help guide us through the decision process. I had zero stress the day of the wedding and everything was implemented and executed flawlessly. I would've paid ten times the amount we paid for her. Definitely worth the money.

Madison Sent on 11/27/2017I cannot rave about Gina more! My husband and I are from Dallas, however, we wanted to get married in the San Diego/La Jolla area. I had found various vendors on The Knot and went out to visit them. A wedding coordinator was still up in the air. I asked the vendors I visited who they would recommend, knowing they work with many coordinators, and Gina's name was the first one out of EVERY single person's mouth!
My fiancé and I made another trip out there to meet with her and we were not disappointed. She has a fantastic personality, so she was easy to get along with, and she was very organized and detailed. She helped me with so many different aspects of my wedding, even though I had a rehearsal and day of package.
Gina went above and beyond for us, and it's clear that is just how she operates. I completely understand why every vendor I spoke to LOVES her, because I know Alec and I would have had a much different experience without her!
Thank you Gina! We are forever grateful to you for making our wedding so magical! -
