  Thank you Socalvows for an Unforgettable Experience

  I just had to share my amazing experience with SoCalVows wedding company for my special event! Seriously, I can't sing their praises enough. Their expertise and dedication made everything a breeze.
  
  Let me tell you about Penjo – not only did she flawlessly plan my event, but she also stepped up as our Day-of Coordinator. We were blown away by her skills and attention to detail, so we gladly paid extra to have her on board. While we know SoCalVows has other fantastic coordinators, Penjo was just the perfect fit for us.
  
  Throughout the planning process, Penjo and the team, including Fina, Joy, and Leng, showed nothing but professionalism, creativity, and a total commitment to bringing my vision to life.
  
  On the big day, the team was incredible! Everything ran like clockwork, allowing us to kick back and soak in every moment without stressing over the details. Pastor Ken delivered a ceremony that had everyone talking, and the music was spot-on.
  
  I can't recommend SoCalVows wedding company enough to anyone looking for an exceptional, all-inclusive service. They truly made our day magical!

  Perfect team made my perfect day

  We had SoCal vows do our whole ceremony package! Officiant, photographers, set up, floral, coordinator and everything you can ever need for a wedding ceremony!
  I would highly recommend SoCal vows for your wedding. Penjo was amazing throughout the process from start to finish and assisted day of coordination for the day. Everything looked beautiful and worked out great! So many hands on which made the day helpful. Our photographer Dave was absolutely amazing! We got our photos back and they are ABSOLUTELY stunning, ask for Dave for your photographer! He knew exactly what he was doing!
  One thing I would like to add is for the ceremony our officiant did not let us read our personal vows, he also pronounced my name wrong in the beginning of the ceremony in which a couple guests have brought that to my attention. We have had at least 3 conversations with many emails back and fourth regarding our wants at the ceremony and we thought everything was clear but during the ceremony Paul continued on a long monologue instead of letting us do personal vows. We were upset with this but nothing we could do now. I would suggest having the officiant actually at the rehearsal so everyone can be on the same page.
  SoCal Vows planning was amazing and we couldn’t have asked for a better company to assist with your big day!

  Easy Breezy, Beautiful Beach Wedding

  We had a fantastic ceremony at Windansea with SoCal vows in October 2022. A special thank you to SoCal Vows for ordering up a beautiful sunset, glassy waves, and a slight sea breeze. ;) A beach wedding was our dream.
  
  We only planned our big day about 2.5 months out, so we appreciated all of the quick coordination to make our wedding ceremony a priority. Penjo helped us coordinate the perfect small ceremony and provided great communication about all of the details we needed over email, phone, and also day-of via text messages. She is very kind, compassionate, and available to answer calls and emails if you need some extra questions answered.
  
  The ceremony itself was casual and fun-- just the way we wanted it! We had only 19 guests in a standing ceremony. The officiant, Ken, did an excellent job. He's kind and charismatic, and made the experience enjoyable and light, just as a wedding should be. We'd spoken to him on the phone two times prior to the wedding, and he was able to capture the right spirit for our ceremony and our personalities. Our guests all commented on what a great job he did officiating -- he made it feel personal and special to us!
  
  Our photographer, David, was also wonderful to work with. He was friendly and made the whole photography experience comfortable and fun for us.
  
  If you are looking for a beach ceremony (or ceremony elsewhere), look no further!

  A perfect ceremony that was well coordinated and went off without any problems!

  We had the most perfect day on the La Jolla Beach with our ceremony thru SoCal Vows. The communication from the beginning to end was excellent and they payed attention to every detail to insure everything went as planned. We did not have an event coordinator for our reception, so it was so nice to put our complete trust into SoCal Vows for the ceremony. They were patient as we helped our moms to the beach and for the wedding party to arrive. They place all our girt bags on the guests seats and pointed us in the direction as to orchestrate the entire production so we didn’t have to even think about the me mechanics of the ceremony. Wel done and met every expectation.

  Absolutely Amazing!!

  Ken Hoelscher of SoCal Vows
  
  I got to married on the 13th of October, Ken was our officiant for the big day. When I inquired with him he was very nice and gave me all the information I could possibly need.
  
  His pricing is very affordable. If you are wanting a ceremony Rehearsal before the big day make sure you inform him so that he has it in his calendar and can give you an accurate price!
  
  He was very professional. If you are getting married I highly recommend Ken as your officiant!

  Excellent Beach Wedding Service Provider

  SoCalVows is an awesome company. Super easy to work with, affordable, and just great service. It was so easy and stress free to plan and organize our wedding because of SoCalVows. We did the beach wedding at Sunset Cliffs, and we absolutely loved it. We used their photographer, their officiant, their flower vendor, and the wooden chairs, and chair drapes. All in, it cost us around $3,000 for a ceremony with 30 guests, which is a fantastic price.
  
  Our officiant, Pastor Ken, was excellent. He was extremely accommodating, even when we changed the ceremony plans the day before the wedding! He was able to add a unity ceremony to the proceeding without any hiccups. He gave a great speech about love and marriage, and included a lot of personal details about our relationship from the conversations that we had with him. Many of our guests commented on how nice and personal the ceremony was.
  
  We worked with Penjo throughout the process of planning the wedding. She was extremely helpful and patient with us as we decided on chairs, flowers, etc. She was always quick to respond when we had questions. Penjo was also the day-of coordinator for our ceremony and she was really on top things. She orchestrated everything perfectly and dealt with delays like a professional. The bridal party definitely noticed how organized she was and made the whole ceremony run smoothly.
  
  I highly recommend SoCalVows to anyone looking to do a beach wedding in the San Diego area. They are a fantastic service, and even though I don’t need to get married again, I would definitely use them again if I ever needed another beach ceremony!

  Hire socal vals!

  After my husband and I got engaged, we were overwhelmed with the idea of wedding planning. We knew we wanted a beach wedding, but we didn’t even know where to start. We stumbled upon SoCal Vows and hiring them was the best decision we could have made. After selecting one of their wedding packages, they started working on our permits, connected us with one of their officiants, connect us with their floral team, helped us get our marriage license, connected us with their photographer, provided all the day-of set up, and sent us emails throughout the process of what you should be working on as the day approaches. We got to choose our wedding theme and colors, as well as prelude, processional, and exit music. The only thing we had to schedule on our own was transportation to the wedding, and one of their first coordinator emails suggested a list of local businesses that could assist with this. If you are planning to get married in Southern California, make your life easy and hire SoCal Vows. We are so happy with the wedding they planned for us and would 10/10 recommend.

  Skip the search and just use SoCal Vows!

  I cannot say enough about Ken and Penjo with SoCal Vows. From the moment I inquired with SoCal Vows, Ken was extremely responsive and very thorough in his communication. When you have no clue who to use and who to trust these days, something about Ken made me feel very comfortable moving forward with his services. After making the decision to move forward, Ken's regular communication and instructions on what we need to do, asking us questions, getting to know us and coming to a place we've never been before made things so incredibly easy for us. We never even for one moment felt alone because we felt like Ken was right by our side the entire time. What was even more amazing was when we finally met Ken in person and he conducted our ceremony, it was like Ken had known us for a long time and made it feel so incredibly personal. Penjo contacted us the day of our ceremony to see how we were doing and to make sure we were ready for pictures prior to our ceremony.

  Ken was amazing!

  Ken was outstanding. We planned the wedding from Arizona. He was easy to communicate with and did a great job of making our ceremony personal.

  SoCal Vows's reply:

  Hi Brandy... it was great getting to meet and hang out with your tribe. You have a great family. It is amazing all of the similarities that you and Andy have:) I got a sneak peak at a couple of the photos and they are looking great... you should be getting them in the next day or so. Thank you again for thinking of Socal Vows for your special day.

  Thank you SoCalVows

  I found So Cal Vows on the internet. Our wedding coordinator was Penjo who was amazing and funny. They have amazing packages to choose from. I was very particular about certain things for my wedding and a little skeptical about choosing a company I found on the internet and planning everything over the phone. However, Penjo and her staff made sure my day was perfect and PERFECT it was. I was in disbelief when I arrived to the site and seen the set up I couldn't believe they had created my dream Hawaii wedding on the beaches of La Jolla. A HUGE thank you to Amanda, the on site wedding coordinator who made sure everything flowed the day of the wedding. Greta or Greta D Photography for capturing the most amazing pictures. You should really call Greta if you want someone with a true gift of photography. MOST of all THANK YOU PENJO... for all the special touches and for selecting all the perfect people to make this truly my DREAM wedding!
  
  We were married on October 16th, 2021 on the beaches of La Jolla.
  
  Our officiant was Luis Osuna. He was referred to us through So Cal Vows. I was quite nervous having an officiant selected for our wedding without ever meeting them. My nerves were calmed when I received the first email from Luis Osuna. :) He was a breath of fresh air from the moment I read his email. Next we met via zoom and we knew the moment we saw Luis he was the perfect fit. He glows with kindness and sincerity it was beautiful. It was very important to me that our officiant fit our personalities. He asked questions like how we met, what things first attracted us to each other , what qualities we love about each other etc.. The day of our wedding he captivated our guests. He had them laughing and crying at the same time! The only regret I have is that we didn't get a chance to take a picture with Luis at our wedding. :( I highly recommend Luis if you are looking for that personal touch. He really cares about making your day perfect! Thank you Luis!

  I found So Cal Vows on the internet. Our wedding coordinator was Penjo who was amazing and funny. They have amazing packages to choose from. I was very particular about certain things for my wedding and a little skeptical about choosing a company I found on the internet and planning everything over the phone. However, Penjo and her staff made sure my day was perfect and PERFECT it was. I was in disbelief when I arrived to the site and seen the set up I couldn't believe they had created my dream Hawaii wedding on the beaches of La Jolla. A HUGE thank you to Amanda, the on site wedding coordinator who made sure everything flowed the day of the wedding. Greta or Greta D Photography for capturing the most amazing pictures. You should really call Greta if you want someone with a true gift of photography. MOST of all THANK YOU PENJO... for all the special touches and for selecting all the perfect people to make this truly my DREAM wedding!
  
  We were married on October 16th, 2021 on the beaches of La Jolla.
  
  Our officiant was Luis Osuna. He was referred to us through So Cal Vows. I was quite nervous having an officiant selected for our wedding without ever meeting them. My nerves were calmed when I received the first email from Luis Osuna. :) He was a breath of fresh air from the moment I read his email. Next we met via zoom and we knew the moment we saw Luis he was the perfect fit. He glows with kindness and sincerity it was beautiful. It was very important to me that our officiant fit our personalities. He asked questions like how we met, what things first attracted us to each other , what qualities we love about each other etc.. The day of our wedding he captivated our guests. He had them laughing and crying at the same time! The only regret I have is that we didn't get a chance to take a picture with Luis at our wedding. :( I highly recommend Luis if you are looking for that personal touch. He really cares about making your day perfect! Thank you Luis!

  Great Ceremony with Ken

  Ken was great! He was extremely informative and communicative via email and took the time to find out more about my future husband and myself and weaved that information into the ceremony seamlessly. He was charismatic and well-liked by the guests and we are grateful that it went so smoothly. He answered our questions regarding the license and arrived early the day-of and made sure it was properly filled out and he also took the responsibility of turning it in so we did not have to. Thank you Ken!

  Fantastic wedding officiant

  My husband and I wanted a small, intimate service for our nuptials so we called SoCal Vows to get a quote, and were highly satisfied with their services. From flexibility in planning, to COVID precautions, to wedding prep with vows, etc, they really made it easy for us to simply relax and enjoy our day. Our officiant, Ken, was awesome! He really took the notes we sent and filtered into the ceremony seamlessly.

  Amazing ceremony and location!

  Socalvows was just amazing from the very beginning to the end and made our wedding dreamy. Penjo was always quick to respond to any questions We had and went over the whole ceremony right before the wedding day. Amanda and her team did an outstanding job setting up the venue and making sure all went smooth. David, our photographer captured our day perfectly. Thank you so much!

  Top Notch!

  I just want to say how much I loved our vow renewal ceremony. It was better than I imagined! Everything was done so professionally. Every little touch was so beautiful. The communication was spot on. I am tearing up just thinking about it all. We had a pretty amazing wedding 20 years ago so the expectations were high. You guys nailed it. I cannot thank you all enough for making our special day one of the most memorable moments we’ve had so far!!

  50 year vow renewal!

  Socal Vows was an absolute dream to work with! Trying to plan a last minute intimate 50 year vow renewal (in the middle of a pandemic) from the east coast for my parents was an intimidating feat.... knowing only that we will be vacationing in southern California but not knowing the area at all. But Penjo and her team put me at ease and recommended a breathtaking location in Dana Point easily accessible for my eldery parents, provided the most caring officiant Ken and a photographer Xavier that risked his life for the perfect photo. It was beautiful, intimate, and everything my mom asked for. Wonderful memories were made and looking back brings me to tears. Highly recommend Socal Vows for anyones wedding or vow renewal celebrations! They are the BEST!

  Wedding with Socal Vows

  We choose Socal Vows for our wedding ceremony based on the Yelp review and we are happy that we did. Ken and the photographer Dave were very nice, kind and understanding. The ceremony went well, with a nice speech about love, commitment, and marriage. We could not ask for a nicer officiant. Thank you for being a part of our ceremony. We are looking forward to seeing the pictures!

  SoCal Vows's reply:

  Thank you Anna... it was great spending the day with you and Chris, and you two did a great job getting the Monarch Resort all set. Both Dave and I really enjoyed ourselves. It was an experience to see a golf ball come through the ceremony:)
  
  Thank you for thinking of Socal Vows!!
