I cannot recommend Love & Laughter Weddings highly enough, especially Evelyn and her phenomenal team. From the moment we started our wedding planning journey, Evelyn's kindness, guidance and unwavering support made every step a happy experience. Planning has never been my forte and I overwhelm easily when decisions need to be made, but her gentle guidance throughout the months of planning alleviated any stress I had, and her attention to detail ensured that every corner of our special day was nothing short of perfect. From coordinating vendors to orchestrating the flow of events seamlessly, they allowed us to fully enjoy ourselves in the moment without a worry in the world. Our guests were also so happy saying on multiple occasions it was the best wedding they had ever been to. One of the extra cherished highlights of our day was the ceremony where Evelyn also took the role as our officiant. Her heartfelt words and genuine warmth created an atmosphere that exceeded our wildest dreams and had everyone crying. We also had live music for ceremony and cocktail hour provided by Aspen Strings which really added that elegant touch we had always envisioned. In short, Love & Laughter Weddings not only met but surpassed every expectation we had for our wedding day. Their passion for creating heartfelt unforgettable moments was present through in every detail, making our wedding a cherished memory that we will treasure forever. If you're looking for a wedding planner, officiant and live music team that will go above and beyond to make your wedding dreams a reality, look no further than Love & Laughter Weddings. They really are the best people!

My biggest regret is I wish I selected Korina's Planning and Design package! For your sanity, planning a whole wedding is stressful on your own and you will need some help. I selected her Wedding Management package at the time and turn of the events, I found out I was having a bundle of joy on the way and was too exhausted to plan with only two months away from the wedding date. Not sure how I did it at all, but Korina helped me get through it and she is always so professional. I don't know how in the world I would have done it without her! Korina and her team, Giselle and Ashley, goes above and beyond for you. Yes you! During the pre-wedding months, she will communicate with all your vendors for you and create a wedding timeline so everyone knows what time, when, and where to meet. This will save you so much time and my advice is not to do this on your own. You will have so many other things to worry about. The day of your wedding, they will help setup your table design working alongside your florist and venue staff. It was perfection. They pay attention to detail and knew exactly what I wanted. My wedding was perfect all because of them. The only thing you have to worry about is getting ready and taking your gorgeous photos. At the end of the night, they will also pack everything for you and drop it off your hotel room so all you have to do is just head to your wedding after party. Quality of service is amazing and worth every penny. Korina is so kind, sweet, and personable too. All of my vendors loved working with her as did I. My wedding went smoothly because of her and I was able to enjoy celebrating my wedding day. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Korina, Giselle, and Ashley.

Teyanna was absolutely everything and more! I hired her for day of coordination, decor and florals. She exceeded my expectations. We had a South Asian Muslim wedding. She took the time to listen and understand my culture, wishes and vision. She was extremely realistic and reminded me of my budget and what I could do vs not do. I’m a project manager and extremely Type A. It’s hard to impress me, but she was not only able to impress me but was a step ahead. She and I worked on a timeline and had multiple versions to make sure everything was accounted for. She started advising me several months ahead of my wedding. I’m so grateful for her, it’s so important to have someone day of. If you’re gonna spend tens of thousands of dollars on a wedding HIRE TEYANNA so you can enjoy the day you spent so much time and money on. Teyanna and her team worked so freaking hard, more than anyone I know. I don’t think my wedding would’ve been the way it was without.

Your love is unique, treasured and special - let's have your day reflect all you both are about!

Awarded Best of Zola
One of my biggest regrets with my wedding was not hiring Tatiana sooner! My wedding day was absolutely perfect thanks to Vine Branch. You could not find a better person to help you with your wedding than Tatiana. Whatever you do, your first step after being engaged should be to hire her and not look back. Don’t learn your lesson and regret it like I did! This will be the single best decision you make. Tatiana is made for this role. Her attention to detail, her personality, her organization, her commitment to her people and making them happy and their lives easier. When I got engaged, I contacted Tatiana. She helped me with venue suggestions, logistics, everything - emails, phone calls, texts, you name it. Our budget was small, and at the end of the day, we decided not to hire her. A HUGE mistake. (Taking this second to add, even when we decided not to hire her, Tatiana was the most gracious and still offered to help in any way she could). I am type A, I am an attorney. How hard can this be? My goodness how wrong I was! I struggled coordinating everything and that is an understatement. I read books, I read blogs, I reached out to hundreds of vendors. All while pulling my hair out, not sleeping, and hating the planning process rather than looking forward to my wedding. Fast forward one year to the day before my wedding. I got a text from my rental place - your rentals are in the truck on their way to your venue! Oh no.I had booked my rentals for the wrong YEAR. That night, after lots of crying, I called Tatiana and begged her to let me hire her. I was so nervous, head in my hands, and I needn’t have been - no one is more kind and gracious and understanding and just plain wanting to help.I From that year onward, life was so much easier and less stressful. I had someone in my corner, who I trusted wholeheartedly, helping me every step of the way. She constantly assured me no question was too stupid, no text too needy - and thank goodness. I knew nothing about wedding planning. So many details I had not even thought about - like without Tatiana, I would have forgotten that I needed transportation to my own wedding. She was there for countless questions, from what things can I cut to save money, to how many candles do I need, to which of these invitations looks best after I’ve gone back and forth 100 times. Tatiana is a friend, a comforting presence, a sounding board for all your ideas and a super knowledgeable older sister to walk you through it all. On top of that she is a true professional who knows every single detail of your wedding inside and out. The month before, as I was stressing out more than before, Tatiana was the one confirming everything with the vendors, making sure my rental would be delivered on the right day this time, my florals would be perfect, my photographer and dj knew the timelines she’d created, everything. So much taken off my plate so I could worry about the things I actually needed to worry about. Every single vendor told me that she was incredible, so organized, so knowledgeable, so nice - how lucky I was to have her as my planner. Vine Branch is responsible for my wedding going off without a hitch. I could focus on getting ready and calming my nerves, knowing that her team was getting the ceremony and reception locations set up and making everything perfect behind the scenes. I am a super anxious person, and having someone by my side every step of the way was worth every single penny and then some.

Katie with Wildflowers Elegant Events was an absolute pleasure to work with! We didn't initially plan on hiring a coordinator as I am an Event Planner as a career, but we decided somewhat last minute to hire a day of coordinator so that we could focus on enjoying our special day, and I am SO glad we did! Katie jumped right in and helped us finalize the last few vendors and details that we still had left to do. She kept us on track and made sure we had all the necessary decisions and details figured out in time, and assisted with recommendations as needed. As we got a week or so out, we were getting worried about the weather and she was monitoring the weather daily with us to figure out what to do as our venue was all outdoors. She assisted us with the logistics and contacts of renting last minute tents which worked out beautifully. On the day of, in addition to keeping us sane and making sure we had time to really appreciate the day, she and her team ran point with all the vendors as they arrived, put out the decor that we had brought, and kept us on schedule for all the different parts of the day from first look photos, to ceremony, and reception, and assisted with gathering up all the decor and items at the end of the night so that we could enjoy the day and be present. Our day was absolutely perfect, and we have Katie to thank for that!

I got married on 07/16/23. Where do I begin! Emily was there to help me when my first venue shut down and helped me find a new venue that was 100x more beautiful. Emily went out of her way to help coordinate a meeting and visit. On the day she did such an amazing job that she made everything look way better than I ever imagined. She also helped make the day flow smoothly that all vendors were aware of the timeline and things were done on time. She helped me fit in all my major events during photography coverage. I cannot say enough about Emily. You really need to choose her because she will give it her all to help make your day go smooth and look amazing.

I used Brittany at Heirloom Design and Company and it was by far the best choice I made in the realm of vendors. Brittany is so quick to respond, thorough, and includes her client in every step of the planning process. Brittany is open to incorporating changes that need to be made, and takes all the stress off the bride. As things get down to the wire for the wedding, knowing that your invitation suites are taken care of it phenomenal. Not to mention her packages include addressing, postage, and sending the the suites to guests- this is a huge time saver when it gets down to crunch time! I cannot recommend Brittany and her amazing company enough! -Stacie Fort Mitchell, KY

Hiring Abiola as my wedding coordinator was the best decision ever during my wedding planning.

Abiola and her team made the process during the last two months go as smooth as possible from keeping track of vendors’ contracts , reaching out and emailing vendors , answering questions, putting a very detailed timeline together which was amazing, if i did not hire her i am sure I would’ve missed half of the things she had listed on there. She is truly a blessing and I’m forever grateful for her. Abiola and her team made sure we had the wedding of our dreams, she also made sure we enjoyed our special day and remained stress free which was our top priorities.

Stephanie Wooding (Owner / Lead Planner) When it comes to planning your event, it’s really about how that person (or team) embraces and uses that job experience in a resourceful and creative way. I’m a practical, organized, creative, resourceful, and resilient, “jeans and t-shirt” type chick. Well, the San Diego part of me is anyway. The LA in me is a driven, problem-solving, A-type, “take no guff” lady boss, that gets the job done on time, and within a realistic budget.

Stephanie has been so great to work with! I work with a lot of coordinators (I've shot around 1000 weddings), and they are not always super friendly and accommodating with the other vendors, but she has been great at the weddings I’ve worked with her at. On the wedding day she arrives early and is always on top of everything all day long, tirelessly. I always arrive about 2 hours prior to my start time on the wedding day to scout the location for photography angles, lighting and so forth, and eat lunch, and Stephanie is always there super early as well. There are a lot of moving parts during a wedding, and they all need to stay on track or everything can get derailed, and she is always on top of it all. Of course prior to the wedding day she collaborates with me on the timeline and in general to make sure I have what I need on the day so that my photography will go smoothly and the couple would get what they want out of the photography. I would highly recommend hiring Stephanie and her team!!

Megan was a joy to have as my wedding coordinator! She lifted the heavy burden of communicating with vendors and the venue off of my shoulders as wedding planning got more busy as it came closer to my wedding. She was also amazing at the rehearsal, guiding everyone into position and explaining everyones roles during the wedding the wedding ceremony.

At our core, we embody a design-centric ethos that transcends the ordinary in the world of wedding planning. We are more than a full-service wedding planning company—we're storytellers of love and artisans of celebration, crafting unique, imaginative events that resonate with experience, style, and effortless luxury. We believe that weddings should be immersive experiences that mirror the essence of the couple's journey and their distinct personalities. Our speciality lies in intertwining stories, infusing them with creativity, and transforming them into memorable moments.

My experience working with Nicole was amazing! She is hands down the best planner/ design stylist in the wedding industry! I work in the wedding industry as a wedding photographer so I was a little particular with my wedding planning needs. Nicole has been amazing since our first virtual meet up! Not long after our first virtual meet up she drove down to see our wedding space in person and took lots of videos and photos and even measurements. Nicole is amazing at what she does and is so detailed! We discussed placement of items briefly and not long after nicole sent a mood board with photos of the space with items she thought would look best! I was so shocked and excited that she went above and beyond to give me a visual of what the space would look like. Throughout the year leading up to our wedding , Nicole was extremely responsive to all of my emails and I loved that so much about her. Communication is so important to me and Nicole stayed in communication all year long. Nicole found all of my rentals that would match the vibe of my wedding and communicated with all of my vendors for me. I honestly would not have survived the wedding planning process without her. Nicole is so detailed with her planning & designing and sent me a final design board with everything we had been discussing all year with exact pictures of our rentals and photoshopped mock ups of what my florals would look like. Nicole listened to all my wedding needs and wants and created the most beautiful design board absolutely nailing my vision! The day of my wedding I was blown away at how beautiful everything turned out! Although it looked almost identical to the design board she found ways to still surprise and add unique touches to the design. The day of I didn’t realize things weren’t completed( on my end. Some signage didn’t get made) but Nicole improvised last minute and rearranged some items so that I wasn’t even able to tell. Nicole is truly so talented and I’m so happy I found her!! She is so sweet, creative, talented, and communicative and I will forever be recommending her to everyone! 10/10 recommend nicole with Nicole Leza Design! P.s my husband says he is forever grateful to you for keeping my stress levels down! Wedding planning is stressful and you made it so enjoyable for us.

He kept all decisions moving, had absolutely amazing vendor contacts, and had really beautiful and fun ideas on decor that felt very us. He also did a really good job working within our budget. The day of was honestly the best day of our lives, and was 100% perfect (which is to say, we *know* there must have been some unexpected challenges crop up but the Creative Happens team handled everything so quickly and seamlessly that my husband I had no idea). We also felt that Dan just genuinely cared about us; he made sure to save us various desserts and remind us that we should take a break to eat or switch to a cold glass of champagne before toasts. It was like having another best man/maid of honor (which really let our wedding parties relax and enjoy the night). We HIGHLY recommend Creative Happens.

Taysia Alves found her passion for event planning when she took on her Senior Prom in high school. It started as a fun project which turned into a love and passion for seeing her visions come to life and seeing the smiles on all of her fellow classmates' faces. She started her career working at a luxury wedding dress shop then moving to planning events for several upscale hotels. The passion that she puts into her work speaks for itself. She takes every event personally, creating strong relationships with her clients in the process.

Placentia, CA

  • Serves Santa Monica, CA

Karen Sieger founded Blissfully Styled Events with one simple goal: to provide a planning process couples could actually enjoy. As the go-to event enthusiast any time her friends were planning a celebration, she’d long dreamt of planning parties professionally, but it wasn’t until 2016—when a vendor at her sister’s wedding was surprised to hear Karen wasn’t actually a professional wedding planner—that she decided to leave behind a 20-year career as a real estate executive and make the leap she’d long contemplated.

Karen and her team have gone above and beyond to help coordinate our wedding back in April and we are still dreaming of that wonderful day! I was originally in the planning process with another coordinator who had a job switch during this process and thus I was referred to Karen. Right off the bat Karen was super on top of everything, and so kind and patient, also just fun to work with. We hit it off with her right away – she was super responsive and knowledgeable. On our wedding day and rehearsal as well she kept the whole crew on top of everything, and everything ran on time and seamlessly. I remember she came over to us during dinner reception and reminded us to take a moment to take it all in with each other – I now realized how important that was as I am still dreaming of that day and reliving all the moments in my mind. At the end of the evening – everything got packed neatly away into our cars so all we had to do was drive back. It was so amazing to work with her we cannot thank her and her team enough for their efforts to make our special day the best ever.

Hi, I am Francine, certified, licensed and insured wedding planner/coordinator, and I’m based out of Ventura, California, servicing Ventura, LA, and surrounding counties. I began WedWithCinEvents simply because I love love love weddings! Some people hate the planning and executing part of weddings, but I see it as more of a fun hobby. I enjoy putting together various things that go into making a wedding amazing and seeing everything come together beautifully.

Jay and I got married this past March 2023. I found Francine on a facebook wedding group. Francine did an amazing job with wedding coordinating and floral arrangements. I had an image of how our neon sign and arch would look like and she made it even more beautiful than I imagined! I wanted specific wildflowers and she fulfilled my request and made the floral arrangements so beautiful. I also requested to ensure the timeline was on time because I’ve been to weddings that the guests are sitting there and nothing was happening and I did not want to waste any time at the wedding reception. She did great with the rest of my vendors, timeline and organization as well. She was honest, direct and knowledgeable about the Wedding industry. She did everything I requested and more! The venue kept asking me to add on things which cost more and she told me directly that it is a waste of money, which I love because I am a budget bride. I love that she is honest with her clients and recommends what looks the best and cost effective. I feel that she is very approachable like a friend but at the same time she keeps her professionalism. She made our dream wedding into reality! I could not have asked for a better wedding coordinator and florist. I don’t know what I would do without her. Thank you so much Francine!

There were so many little things that needed my attention and being the bride, I wasn’t able to attend to them. I had to have either a bridesmaid or my mother handle it, which wasn’t ideal. I wanted everyone in the moment and enjoying the day with me. That’s the moment I realized I needed to prevent moments like this from happening to other wedding couples.

For over ten years, I have managed special and promotional events, which I really enjoyed doing.

Being in several weddings helped me realize how much I enjoyed my duties as a bridesmaid and maid of honor. Ever since I was a little girl, I have always wanted to plan the wedding of my dreams.

I had such a wonderful experience with kimberly. She was absolutely wonderful and having her to plan was such a weight off my back. She started planning with me months in advance and went above and beyond what was expected of her. I never once regretted the cost of her services and she made my day go so much smoother and took care of so many little details I would've never thought of. She was truly a bridal bestie I could rant to and run ideas through. She was always available to pick her brain and was not just a yes woman, but someone who I truly felt like was a friend. Having her there the day of was a life saver from helping me into my dress to unbuttoning all 1000 buttons at the end of the day before my send off. She helped in keeping me calm and orchestrating the flow of the day. I would recommend her to my own sister and any of my friends. It was a joy to have her as part of my day.

Hello 💫 I wanted to a minute to introduce myself, My name is Lisa, I’m a wife & mama, and I’ve finally decided to take a passion of mine & turn it into a career.

Now, I can’t wait to be part of YOUR most important days 🤍 We take care of your small details so you can enjoy your big day!

Lisa was absolutely amazing! I called her a few weeks before our event because I realized I could not do it all alone. She was amazing and was able to travel to coordinate our wedding reception. Lisa communicated with me every step of the way and made it so my fiancé and I could enjoy our event stress free. There is no way we could have done it without her.

Events By Michelle is based in San Antonio, TX. We are a team of five beautiful, strong and talented young women who strive to make every wedding as special as possible! We love what we do and hope that you give us the opportunity to show you our passion to coordinate & capture your special day!

I knew I wanted to capture moments of my wedding day through video, but I wasn’t sure if full videography was for me. I found Michelle through her wedding content on Facebook, and immediately knew her services were exactly what I was looking for. We had a one on one consultation to go over ideas and expectations, and I immediately knew I was in the hands of a pro. Michelle was always communicative and checking in about ideas for content, always open to my own ideas and actually incorporating them into our day. The day of our wedding, Michelle was a calming yet friendly and fun presence throughout the whole day. She captured so many precious moments, from getting ready with my mom, speeches, and first dances to our guests goofy dance-offs at the reception. Her style of capturing small vignettes throughout the day weaved a whole story of the wedding, and makes me smile anytime I see the vids. We also got 4 reels, including a highlight reel of the whole day. Seriously, I get a huge smile on my face every time I watch it! If you’re looking for someone to capture moments throughout your whole wedding day to look back on, Michelle is the best! Seriously, watching back the content she created of our wedding feels like I’m reliving the whole day again :)
