My wife and I are busy professionals so when it came to selecting a wedding planner, we needed someone to take charge and seamlessly fulfill all our wants and needs. Thank goodness we found Stephanie at Sophisticated Events. From our initial phone conversation to the morning after our event- Stephanie was there for my wife and I every step of the way. With her attention to detail and her constant follow up- she was influential in making our event a magical experience. Stephanie constantly went up and above for my wife making sure she had nothing to worry about throughout the planning process. The best way to describe it is - my wife concentrated on herself and us while Stephanie handled everything else for our memorable event. Stress gone, panic gone, worry gone - nerves remained...of course they would its our wedding !! What bride wouldn't be nervous? The mere fact that Stephanie jumped in from day one and basically held our hand throughout the whole planning and executing p...

Thank you for being there every step of the way, and thank you for being such an important part of our beautiful day. Sheila and Mike

We hired Stephanie as our coordinator for our wedding at South Coast Winery in Temecula. A huge venue! We were hesitant at first to even hire a coordinator because of the added expense of what one costs, but we took a gamble on her and trusted her from the first conversation we had. She knew our vision and coupled with her already given talents and experience, our journey to the big day was effortless and flawless. Stephanie not only pays attention to the details of your vision, but she will also save you a ton of money in the process by investigating all options and comparisons. On the big day, she communicated with our vendors to ensure that we were not stressed and we could actually savor the moments that would never have the opportunity to be captured again. If you are debating not only to hire a coordinator but to also hire Stephanie to take on the task, trust us... you will NOT be disappointed. Our only regret is that we didn’t hire her from day 1! Please do yourself a favor an... Read mored choose to work with this amazing human being and professional. You can thank us later 😉. A big thank you to Stephanie for leading us in this incredible journey and for being our rock to keep us grounded. We gained a true friend in the process! We are forever grateful ❤️

Stephanie and her crew are amazing! She was with us every step of the way from the moment we signed the contract. She has a great eye for detail and missed nothing. Her response time is impeccable, even for those late night “freaking out” bride calls. My husband and I were so impressed with her and how she handled everything like a BOSS. Do not hesitate to hire her, you will not be disappointed! And... her photography skills should not go unmentioned. She is great and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. She is sweet, professional and understanding and always had time for us! I don’t know how Stephanie does it, as the planner and photographer, but she did it ALL, even more than we expected! We definitely recommend Sophisticated Event Planning and Photography!

Steph is super awesome and sweet. I love how easy it was to communicate with her throughout our wedding. I would recommend her for photography and wedding coordinating.

It was such a pleasure to work with Stephanie. It was the first time we worked together and it couldn’t have gone any better. Worked as a team which we all know weddings are about when it comes down to set up! Highly recommended

Stephanie was our day of coordinator. She absolutely came through for us! We rented a few decor items, she set up everything we couldn’t get to ahead of time, managed all the vendors, worked through schedule hiccups... you name it she already had it handled! We almost didn’t hire a coordinator and I’m so glad we did. She is definitely a get it done type of person and we didn’t need to worry about a thing. Absolutely recommend!
