  • Karla was a joy to work with!

    I am someone who is very well organized, and wedding planning was overall a pleasant experience for me. However, I knew I did not want to be the point person on my wedding day. Karla and the Kiss and Say I Do team created a seamless wedding day experience for us. I had no stress on my wedding day, and Karla helped us express our values into our wedding day experience. Karla is kind, highly organized, and working with her was one of the best parts of our wedding experience. I worked with Karla almost three years ago and I still look back fondly on our time working together!

  • Amazing!

    A three month old, but beyond warranted review for Karla and her amazing team. We found Karla through a personalized facebook inquiry for a wedding planner experienced with the Hispanic culture. Through the midst of about 50 responses, her detailed response outlining her resume stood out. And after falling in love with her during our meet and greet, we knew she was the one. I must preface this with the fact that both my wife and I are very particular, attentive to detail, and know exactly what we love/want. And Karla and team tackled this challenge without hesitation, and although I'm sure it wasn't, they made it seem effortless. From the beginning, Karla sent us everything we needed to begin planning our dream wedding. From spreadsheets, to informatory brochures, to vendors, Karla helped us create the perfect design and team to bring our vision to life. Karla was available every and any time we had a question, a concern, or a comment. She not once disagreed, but added constructive criticism when needed. Her patience and understanding were outstandingly impressive, and honestly, I don't know how she did it! Karla made sure all vendors knew our vision, and she advocated for our must haves when needed. The few weeks before our wedding, Karla and team stepped up to the plate with venue and vendor walkthroughs, easing our anxieties and worries, troubleshooting the minor discrepancies, and creating the perfect itinerary for our big day. She also made sure our bridal party was fully understanding of their role and responsibilities (thank you, Karla). Now the big day! Where do I begin? She had us assign two decision makers for the day of. But she did such a wonderful and impeccable job at cooridnating with vendors and the venue, that they had no responsibility the day of. The venue looked amazing for our entire wedding. It was exactly what we envisioned, what we discussed, and what we planned. The coordination was outstanding. Every single part of our itinerary was executed exactly how we planned, even our guests noticed and complimented us. All in all, our wedding we PERFECT. Every single thing about our day was perfect. Karla and her team did an amazing job at everything we hired them to do. It was worth every penny, and I would do it all over again (in another lifetime). The amount of gratitude that my wife and I have is indescribable. Karla, Ellie, and Noemi, thank you so much for everything you did, endured, and executed the day of. We are still processing and talking about our day, and I honestly think we will for the rest of our lives. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you! I almost forgot this is a review. Quit thinking about it and just hire Kiss & Say I Do already! You will absolutely not regret it.

  • Exceptional wedding planning!

    Our wedding was in September 2023 in Los Angeles, CA. There aren't enough words to express how awesome and invaluable my wedding planner, Karla Solorzano and her team at Kiss and Say I Do Events were throughout the entire process. Simply put, our wedding wouldn't have been possible without her. Karla helped us every step of the way, from the initial stages of planning 9 months out to every detail of the design and the logistics of the actual wedding day. She made wedding planning enjoyable and possible so we could enjoy every special moment of our wedding. She is extremely organized, kind, efficient, available at any time to discuss planning, and aims to relieve as much stress as possible. Her team made sure everything ran smoothly from beginning to end. We are extremely grateful we found Kiss & Say I Do Events and would highly recommend to anyone planning their wedding! 3 Alexandra A Jacobs

  • Power Hour Coaching Call

    •Melissa E.•Dec 11, 2023

    My fiancé and I booked a power hour coaching call with Karla after feeling overwhelmed and anxious at the idea of cross-country wedding planning. Due to our tight budget, hiring a full time wedding planner was not in the plans, but I knew we needed some direction and advice. I followed Kiss and Say I Do on Instagram because I admired Karla's honesty and transparency at supporting couples in planning their special day. Meeting with Karla was a tremendous breakthrough for us, as we were struggling with where to start, what to cross off our list first, and timelines for completing tasks, however Karla provided us with an immense amount of clarity that helped us prioritize a step-by-step planning process rather than attempting to do everything all at once. We highly recommend Karla and Kiss & Say I Do for any event planning!
