San Diego Wedding Planners + Coordinators
providing stress-free celebrations for fun-loving couples of california
Serving the Greater San Diego area
If you’re looking to get married in the Birthplace of California, and one of these sounds like you:
“I have a pretty good idea of what I want for my wedding, but zero ideas on how to get there.”
“I’m feeling stressed out and I wish I could just enjoy this special time of being engaged.”
“We are having a fusion/multicultural wedding, and I want to make both families happy.”
“I’m worried about how much everything is going to cost.”
“I’m dreading any awkwardness or even flat out discrimination we may face from vendors.”
“I don’t really need a wedding planner. I can either do this myself or let my venue do it, right?!?”
“I have a pretty good idea of what I want for my wedding, but zero ideas on how to get there.”
You’re in the right place (and we are so excited to meet you!)

Imagine finding an advocate that not only cares deeply for your wedding vision but has planned hundreds of seamlessly executed weddings before. They will not only pull together your wedding vision, but they have advice, knowledge, and they will be your voice of calm in the midst of it all.
Someone who will sit you down, and calmly say, “You don’t have to do it all yourself. I’m here for you.”
We will perfectly match you with your San Diego wedding planner who will do just that.
Our team of wedding planners are:
Expertly trained and very experienced
Connected to quality (and inclusive) vendors
More fun than you might expect from a bunch of Type As
Going to save you money (for real)
Here’s the thing: We may plan hundreds of weddings each year, but you’re guaranteed to feel like our one and only.
Our mission: Make wedding planning fun (the way it is supposed to be) and give kind + generous couples (like you) a joyful celebration of love (because you deserve it!)

A Note From Our Team
Well hey there!
We are so happy that you are here! Are you feeling a little overwhelmed with planning your San Diego wedding? Don’t worry, we’ve got you! While we have you, we want to let you in on a little known secret. That yes, even if your venue is offering a “complimentary coordinator” you more than likely still need us. Let us explain...
We love working hand-in-hand with venues, so that they can do what they do best (provide awesome hospitality) while we do what we do best (execute your wedding vision.) Often when venues have a "complimentary wedding planner" as an incentive for booking their venue, they merely promise a person that will be present only on the wedding day, but not a true wedding planner.
Some venues may offer a bit more, but make sure you get an itemized list of what they plan to do for you. Will they be setting up all your decor even if your ceremony is offsite? Are they helping you with your first look photos? Will they coordinate and lend a helping hand with all vendors (even assist with the floral install if needed)? Will they cue the DJ and Photographer along with all your loved ones giving speeches? Will they be tearing everything down at the end of the night?
In our experience, probably not. And we don't want you to have to worry about those things!
The thing is: planners do about 90% of the work before the wedding day even happens and coordinates with all vendors so that you don’t have to. As San Diego wedding planners, we work for you, and our commitment is to you.
We understand how stressful planning can be. So we wanted to explain one of the biggest myths out there to ensure you have the information you need to have the perfect day. We want you to have a wedding planner! (and yes, even if it doesn’t happen to be us.) Because the truth is, if you are reading this, we care about your wedding.
We want your wedding to be the most stress-free, incredible day of your whole life. Because a love like yours deserves it.

The team was a joy to work with and they really bent over backwards to make our day a success.
I cannot recommend The Simply Elegant Group enough! The team was a joy to work with and they really bent over backwards to make our day a success. They were an expert at coordinating multiple vendors on a tight schedule, while ensuring the bridal party had everything we needed. I was on the fence about hiring someone in this role, but I am so glad we did! They helped do all the preparations that allowed the day to run smoothly, we would have been lost without them!

Who We Are
Our company was built on the idea that every engaged couple deserves a San Diego wedding planner. To provide that opportunity, we have four core pillars for our success:
A Personalized Experience
Hiring a team affords you more resources and expertise than hiring a sole planner so that you can receive an experience unlike what you’ll find anywhere else. We have perfected our planning process so that we can provide you an expert lead planner with a team of people under them for troubleshooting. We customize everything, and we do it without ever trying to sell you more than you need. Our services range from Day Of Coordination to Full-Service Planning, and we will tailor our services to match your exact needs and budget.
Preferred Vendor Program
To save you money during the planning process, we offer pre-negotiated discounts and incentives from 400+ vendors across the country. We do not profit from these partnerships, because our vendors cannot pay to be a part of our list and we do not accept any commissions from them. The vendors on our list are solely there because we have worked with them time and time again and know they take incredible care of our couples.
Unparalleled Resources
Huge planning platforms often offer resources, but usually they are written by advertisers, not by wedding professionals, so they can lack the up-to-date information you need. Which is why our team of over 20 lead planners worked collaboratively over five years to develop wedding planning documents that you won’t find anywhere else. These lists, timelines, and other materials are guaranteed to give you the most relevant and valuable knowledge available.

"We could not be happier with our decision."
We had the pleasure of working with The Simply Elegant Group and it was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Our planner was attentive, organized and so supportive throughout the entire planning process. Whether it was via email, phone or a frantic text about a stain on my dress the day before my wedding, she made sure to make us feel like her #1 priority. I am forever grateful to SEG for making our dream wedding come true, keep me calm and collected throughout the process and bring our ideas into a reality. We highly recommend the Simply Elegant Group to anyone planning a wedding, we could not be happier with our decision.
