The team at Peace Cottage was very responsive, replying to all of my inquiries within 2 hours. I rented the entire house and backyard for my engagement party, and they provided the space for a full 24 hours - much more than I expected. Their team was extremely helpful, treating me very professionally while also working with me in a personalized, family-like way. The space was beautiful, the beds were comfortable, and the master bedroom was a hidden gem that served as my own private retreat.

Choosing second song as our DJ service for our wedding was the best decision we could have made!! The team is so accommodating and made the process of choosing our DJ so easy. After choosing second song, they allowed us to set up phone calls to interview DJ's to find the perfect fit for us. We ended up choosing DJ Daniel Cabral. Daniel was attentive and set up multiple meetings with us prior to our wedding to discuss our vision for our wedding day. Everything ran perfectly throughout the entire day. The audio for our ceremony was perfect and the music selections throughout cocktail hour, dinner, and the reception set the mood for our wedding. We also hired a string trio through second song and they did a beautiful job at our ceremony and cocktail hour. Our reception was a party and Daniel made sure people were on the dance floor all night long. We also had my cousin play the trumpet at our reception while Daniel played a song in the background. Daniel mic'd up his trumpet for us and it was such a hit! We also got our Photo Booth through second song and they provided the uplighting at the venue! They are everything you could want from a DJ service and more!! If you are looking for a DJ service, second song is the way to go!!!!

Where to begin... From our initial consultation with Seth, all the way through after our wedding, Seth was absolutely amazing. He was communicative, professional, friendly, organized - everything you could possibly want from any vendor on your wedding day. He listened to every single request we made, and was such a delight on our big day. His calm demeanor put all our worries at ease. He kept the dance floor packed, and all our guests raved about the music. So much so, that a cousin ended up hiring him for her wedding as well. If we could give him more stars, we would! Thanks again for everything Seth!!

Randall de Leon Photography

  • Photographer

  • Serves Duarte, CA

Photography has always been a lifelong passion of mine, I picked up my first camera as a gift from my dad when I was 14 years old. Never in a million years would I have thought that my lifelong hobby could eventually become my career. I focused on my future, working my way through college and grad school to achieve my license to practice, but a part of me realized that I wanted to pursue a career that allowed me to go on adventures and meet a lot of new people. So in 2019, I took that risk, changed my hours from full time to part time and put more focus on my photography. I booked my first gig later that year and have never looked back.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are so grateful to have had Randall as our photographer for both our engagement and wedding day. From start to finish, he was a dream to work with professional, warm, and so thoughtful in his approach. For our engagement session, we wanted to recreate the Japan vibes since we got engaged there, but we weren’t sure how Little Tokyo in Downtown LA would translate in photos. Randall completely exceeded our expectations. Between the Venice Canals and Little Tokyo, he perfectly captured the aesthetic we were hoping for, and the final shots were stunning. On our wedding day, Randall went above and beyond. He made my bridal party feel so at ease his presence was calm, kind, and unobtrusive, which helped all of us relax and enjoy every moment. He captured everything: the big, emotional highlights and all the small, beautiful in-between moments. Now we have a gallery full of memories that we’ll treasure forever. If you’re looking for a photographer who is incredibly talented, easy to work with, and genuinely cares about delivering your vision: Randall is it!!! We couldn’t be happier!

James was so much fun at our wedding! He was a great MC/DJ and was a hit with all of our wedding guests. He communicated with us throughout the wedding process and kept in touch with both me and my wedding coordinator whenever we came across any details we needed to discuss. My only concern was not having him longer at the wedding. My husband and I still talk about our wedding playlist and how we wish we had more dance time with our guests.

Awarded Best of Zola
I’m not even sure where to begin to describe how amazing Events by McKenna is at what they do!! McKenna is the most kind, helpful, and enthusiastic person to assist you during such an important time in your life. She made sure everything went perfectly on our wedding day and every day leading up to it! When we first started our wedding planning journey, we only knew where we wanted to have it, and due to the venue location not regularly being used for weddings, we needed to outsource vendors for everything. That's where McKenna came in and helped us out by hand-picking every vendor that she knew would provide the exact things we were looking for. From catering, florals, furniture rentals, DJ, and all the little details, she knew who would be perfect for the job and she was right about every single one! Every time we had a question or a crazy idea, she had an answer right away and she would do everything she could to make it happen. One thing that we were really hoping for was getting a disco ball above our dance floor, but since we were outdoors, it wasn’t looking promising. McKenna was the one who made sure that we got our disco ball, and it was absolutely perfect! That’s just one example of the many ways McKenna ensured our dream wedding would become a reality. On the day of, McKenna and her team were so efficient and handled everything so that my husband and I could relax and focus on ourselves. We got to our venue and everything was already done and ready to start the day! McKenna was amazing at time management throughout the day, and she was so helpful to not only us, but our families, wedding party and guests as well. Everything went perfectly on schedule and all the crazy ideas that we had came to life with no issues! It was truly the best day of our lives and it wouldn’t have been possible without McKenna’s help! I could write so much more on how incredible Events by McKenna is, but to sum it all up, they are the best choice for your wedding planning and coordinating needs and you will not regret choosing them for your big day!!

My partner and I’s venue search ended the second we ascended in the historical elevator to the penthouse of the James Oviatt Building. The Oviatt venue is a multifaceted piece of beautiful Art Deco history that lends itself well to whatever event you are trying to throw. In our case, they hosted our wedding. We will forever be grateful for their immense care and kindness leading up to, on, and after the big day. We met the President Gabe first, who had his own wedding at this venue before he managed it. He made us feel right at home and answered every question we could muster. Our one hour showing turned into a two and a half hour conversation where his care and passion for the venue and his clients became very clear. We felt a connection right away. He shared a wealth of great advise and reassurances and gave us an impeccable pool of preferred vendors. We were sold in minutes. Every event is different, but my partner and I did not feel the space needed any help to become beautiful. The architectural art of the space is breathtaking and unique from the valet area outside of the Cicada Club all the way to the terrace. We saved a fortune on a florist. Who needs one when everything is already so classy? Speaking of class, the Director of Events Lindsey took point on execution and was our resource during the planning process. I as an individual am not the most communicative. I needed someone with that attention to detail and she delivered. After giving her all the venue required specifications (seating chart, insurances, etc,) two conversations was all it took for her to equip the venue with everything it needed and make it gorgeous. It seemed effortless for her. Not a spec of dust or dirt to be seen and the staff was respectful, efficient, and welcoming. I had a panic attack because I forgot to ask them for valet and she was able to get her people on it without issue the same week as the wedding. (Don’t be like me, but that is a perfect example of how on top of it they are.) They had EVERYTHING we could have wanted for a downtown metropolitan wedding and then some. If they didn’t have it? They knew exactly where to refer you. One of my personal favorite features was their completely customizable LED lighting strips on the hedges that lined either side of the rooftop. We had them a bright warm light for dinner and then a cycle of rainbow colors for dancing. They are inclusive and welcoming to any and all who come to visit. We felt valued, respected, and well cared for. It truly was the best day of our lives and we owe it all to The Oviatt. I implore to to reach out to them. I can say with certainty that you won’t be disappointed and whatever it is you are planning will become a memorable experience unlike any other.

Hi! I'm Tavi (pronounced Teh-Vee). Hun Events is a boutique wedding planning & event design company with a focus on the sweet details of intimate gatherings. I specialize in weddings that range from 30-100 guests, but also work with larger events and am always open to unique venues and experiences! I plan weddings in Los Angeles, Central Coast, and Orange/Ventura/San Diego Counties.

Awarded Best of Zola
My wife, Kristie, and I are writing this on our one-year wedding anniversary, and as we reflect on that unforgettable day, it’s impossible not to think of Tavi and the extraordinary role she played in bringing it all together. Simply put, we hit the jackpot with her as our wedding planner. From our very first meeting, we were drawn to Tavi’s calm, grounded presence and the genuine care she showed in getting to know us. Her deep knowledge of weddings, paired with her warm and approachable demeanor, made every step of the planning process feel manageable and, dare we say, enjoyable. People told us to “enjoy the planning,” but it wasn’t until we worked with Tavi that we truly understood what that meant. She made it easy to trust the process—and just when stress would start to creep in, a single call or email from her would immediately bring us back to center. Tavi’s passion for what she does shines in everything—from the big picture to the tiniest detail. She has an incredible gift for listening, for understanding what matters most to her couples, and for making those things come to life with such heart and precision. No detail was too small, no task too tedious. Whether it was vendor coordination, timeline logistics, or just making sure we took a breath and a bite during the big day, she had it covered—always thinking five steps ahead. Her vendor recommendations alone were worth their weight in gold. Each introduction she made felt thoughtful and aligned with who we were as a couple. It saved us so much time and energy, and it was clear that the people she surrounds herself with are just as dedicated and professional as she is. Thanks to Tavi, we were able to be fully present on our wedding day. We didn’t have to worry about a thing. One of the most touching gestures was how she made sure we had a quiet moment to ourselves after the ceremony, complete with our favorite appetizers and drinks. Later, we came back from golden hour photos to find a beautifully plated meal and cold drinks waiting for us—something that often gets missed in the whirlwind of a wedding. These little moments made a world of difference, and they happened because Tavi cared enough to make them happen. Our wedding would not have been what it was without Tavi’s dedication, intuition, and steady hand. She gave us the gift of peace, joy, and the ability to fully experience one of the most important days of our lives. We are forever grateful to her—for her patience, her warmth, and the love she puts into her work. With all our hearts, Kristie & Xavier

Our experience with Xenia and Mark (videographer) was truly amazing. Xenia is truly a dedicated professional and her camera work is truly phenomenal. We booked Xenia for both our engagement and wedding photos and she completely exceeded my expectations! We originally booked Xenia and Mark for our wedding in May but unfortunately our wedding venue closed last minute and we were left to scramble in finding a new venue and once we did Xenia was so accommodating and made the new wedding date work. Xenia and Mark are super easy to work with; truly genuine individuals! I scoured through hundreds of photographers before I came across Xenia and honestly, none of them compared to her work and eye for photography. Stop your search and book her; I promise you won't regret it. Thank you, Xenia and Mark!

Checkout my LinkTree for upcoming events, more reviews, and to visit my instagram. Let's team up and create memories! It is important for me to articulate, that I serve ALL PEOPLE EQUITABLY!! However, I do want to note that I do require that the couple has a Day of Coordinator (not the venue coordinator as they are different). Otherwise, I will also charge for coordination services as that puts the burden of day of logistics on the DJ.

Literally from the first interaction, Trey was thoroughly professional. We knew instantly that we'd be in good hands during the process, and he maintained through the big day. With Trey, we always had clarity over next steps, and we also got as much flexibility as we could ever hope for. We had a slightly unusual (or, unconventional) ceremony in a couple of ways, and Trey handled every request without any issue. Lastly, and most importantly for a DJ, he nailed the music. We felt like he "got" us while also filling in the gaps appropriately. A true professional, and we feel fortunate having him on the deck for our celebration.

Each member of the band is beyond talented and phenomenal. You must hire the Moon Units and I promise you will have the best event you’ve ever been to or hosted. The Moon Units performance at cocktail hour was incredible and then their performance for two dance sets was SO MUCH FUN! The bass player will even get on the dance floor and play with you which is just such a highlight! They are so versatile and know just about every song. Incredible. They can also help MC the wedding/event and that went flawlessly! It’s really amazing how they can cater to such a variety of ages/demographic with their music/vibe. Again every conversation we have about our wedding includes some glowing statement about the band. When you hire The Moon Units, you don’t have to worry about the details/setup, they are such experts at what they do. Thank you so much to the Moon Units for being a part of our big day.

I was almost not going to choose Ingrid as a wedding coordinator and that would have been one of my biggest regrets as a bride for my wedding. I actually had already put a small deposit down for another wedding coordinator, but once I met Ingrid, she stole my heart. She was my calm to my storm, my ying to my yang, my Robin to my Batman…etc Ingrid is not only an amazing wedding coordinator, but she is also an amazing wedding officiant. She took our love story and crazy ceremony ideas (such as taking a shot with us along with our guests before we sealed the deal or taping our ring box underneath one of the chairs for a surprise ring bearer) and created the ceremony of our dreams. To hear from multiple guests that it was the best ceremony they attended was the best compliment we could receive because the ceremony is the most important part of a wedding. It was my favorite part of my wedding. Then she can amazingly switch gears from officiant to wedding coordinator and rock that too. She can do it all (literally). I always have other couples tell us that their wedding day goes by very fast and they didn’t really get to enjoy all the little things. However, my husband and I felt like our special day did not go by so fast and we most definitely got to enjoy the little things mainly because Ingrid took care of everything behind the scenes that no one sees. She created an amazing timeline for us, took charge of our vendors, made sure we were right on schedule with everything, was super communicative along the way… the list goes on and on. She is everything you would want in a wedding coordinator. I am very sad I won’t get to work with her anymore unless I get married again lol, but I would recommend her to anyone I know and hopefully get to see her in action again.

I can’t stress the amount of compliments we received about the talent and just overall vibe. They were a major highlight for every single guest. They are a truly talented group of individual artists and performers, who seamlessly come together collectively to put on an amazing show. But more importantly, they could not have been any more lovely as humans. They really made a magical weekend that much more magical, and we cannot say enough positive things. The team worked back and forth on the setlist and specific sound queues throughout the event. We likely weren’t the easiest to work with because of how specific our vision was for those individual moments throughout the run of show and the team really killed it when it was time for the event! I don’t know when we’ll ever host a party like this again, (though we won’t look any further than Dart) but we will certainly shout our referrals from the rooftops if any of our friends, families or coworkers are ever planning an event.

I can't imagine how chaotic our wedding would have been without the incredible help of Carissa! I got a month-of planning package, and I was especially grateful for their expertise on the day-of. It was such a relief knowing that everything was in capable hands! What I liked best about working with Carissa was her calm demeanor that helped me not get too stressed during the planning process. I wholeheartedly recommend Carissa and her their services to anyone looking for a seamless, unforgettable experience.

Michelle's floral design brought our love story to life. She is a true master of her craft. Her understanding of design, and I mean true design (placement, weight, balance, materials, etc) created the wedding floral design of our dreams. She’s the kind of artist who listens to your vision and elevates it tenfold. I wish I could get married all over again just to work with Michelle.

I was born in Beirut, raised in an Armenian home where Greek disco and Arabic music played nonstop thanks to my mom. That early blend of cultures shaped my love for exploring the world—I’ve traveled to over 20 countries so far, always drawn to new places, people, and perspectives. Photography became my way of connecting. It lets me dive into different cultures, capture honest moments, and hear stories that stay with me. Becoming a photographer helps fulfill that need to explore, to listen, and to create something meaningful. I treat every event like I’m photographing for family—because the connection always matters.

We've known Peter for years and have always been fans of his work. My husband and I are both super uncomfortable in front of the camera—we’re not traditional, and I personally hate being posed. Honestly, I didn’t expect much… but then Peter sent us teaser photos the very next morning, and I was completely blown away. The photos looked like art. He captured us in such a natural, beautiful way. Peter’s work is truly the best, and we are forever grateful.

Sandy at Makeup by Sandy was an absolute dream to work with for my wedding day. From the start, she was very responsive and attentive, taking the time to listen to all of my likes, preferences, and dislikes. As someone who rarely wears makeup, she made sure I felt completely comfortable throughout the process and I absolutely loved the final look she created. Sandy's attention to detail was evident during the test trial, where she took meticulous notes and followed up afterward to get my feedback. On the day of the wedding, my makeup and hair looked amazing - she executed the look I had shown her in my inspiration photos perfectly. Sandy was a true professional who contributed greatly to making our special day a success.

I'm a CA based and travel wedding photographer. I've photographed almost 200 weddings, and every single one goes by so quickly. I love my job because even though the day goes by fast, I get to find and capture those small moments, sometimes just a fraction of a second long, so they can be relived over and over in photographs. I have a photojournalistic and documentary style, plus 9 years of wedding experience under my belt, so trust me that I've got it while you are able to fully enjoy your day and be present.

This has taken me a little while to get to writing as after wedding day life has been a little chaotic but wanted to express praise where it was well deserved. Holly exceeded my husband and I's expectations as our photographer on our wedding day. Not only was she extremely professional, but she was kind, personable and very helpful. The photos ended up coming out GORGEOUS! We just could not be happier with her and are definitely going to be recommending her to anyone seeking a photographer.
