Led by Kimberly with the support of her husband, we bring a personal touch and shared commitment to creating truly unforgettable weddings that reflect your love story.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kimberly’s Ever After Planning is the whole reason my day went so smoothly and I didn’t spend the whole day worrying. I hired Kimberly’s Ever After Planning for outside day of coordination for my Disneyland Hotel Wedding. From the moment I booked them, I felt a weight lifted off my shoulders. I knew that my DIY & Personal items would be handled carefully and nobody from the wedding party or any guests would have to take time out of their day to set it up. I had lots of communication from Kimberly from the moment I booked with her until the wedding day. Kimberly and her husband Travis had the same venues as we did for their own wedding, plus she has worked many Disneyland weddings as a planner, so I knew she was someone I could trust to know all the details & peculiarities when having a Disneyland Wedding. On the day of the wedding I just showed Kimberly and Travis all the items I had, I had binned them up and labeled them, and they handled everything from then on. I didn’t need to worry about anything while I was getting my hair & makeup done because they were handling it all and updating me occasionally. Kimberly even ran to get a tide pen for me from my hotel room when I spilled cupcake on my white shirt! At the end of the reception, Kimberly & Travis packed up all my items and they were so smooth at it, I didn’t even notice them while I was dancing with my friends! I also hired Kimberly’s Ever After Planning for content creation, and once everything was set up, Kimberly and Travis got so much footage of behind the scenes, the ceremony, and reception footage. I didn’t know if I wanted to spend the money on a videographer & hiring them for content creation was a happy medium. I definitely recommend hiring Kimberly’s Ever After Planning, especially if you’re having a Disneyland Wedding. They know what they’re doing, and they’re going to take care of you, and care about making your day special just as much as you do.

DJ Dominiq 
Rating: 5.0 (36 reviews)
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,995
  • Serves El Toro, CA

My name is Dominiq and I have been in the wedding industry since 2006. I absolutely LOVE what I do. My middle name is Jakob so my name is literally DJ, I was born for this. I have 6 sisters so not only do I love what I do, but I believe in it as a hopeless romantic at heart. I enjoy bringing together families and friends to forget about their problems for a day and just enjoy life and celebrate.

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Dominiq since 2009, and he has consistently been the key to elevating every event. His DJ skills are exceptional, with a diverse music repertoire that can energize any crowd—even those who seem reluctant to dance. Yet Dominiq’s value extends far beyond the music. He is a natural problem-solver, always proactive when it comes to event flow. If anything runs off schedule or unexpected issues arise, he steps in with solutions and keeps everything seamless. Dominiq’s MCing is charismatic and engaging, effortlessly connecting with diverse audiences—different ages, backgrounds, and preferences. No matter the setting—indoor or outdoor—his setups are flawless. From lighting to photo booths, he brings a polished experience. His communication is always clear, prompt, and professional. Every time I plan an event, securing Dominiq is my first step, because he brings it to the next level—every single time. Here’s a photo of Dom and I from 2014 when he DJ’d at Club Sutra in Orange County CA.

"I am still in awe. 100/10 absolutely phenomenal. Thank you for above & beyond service. BOOK HIM you will not regret it." -Reese Free. As you compare performers, you likely wonder what makes one a better fit than another. Of course, musical skill is important. This is something I've developed in my 15 years of playing. But there's more than that—it's the ability to fit seamlessly with a DJ, to connect with vendors behind the scenes to minimize weight on your shoulders, to deliver your important songs in a way that accentuates the emotions of the moment. With Seps, you can expect a performance of a lifetime, with the easiest prep imaginable.

We had an incredible experience with Tyler’s Saxophone Experience from start to finish. Booking was easy, the contract was thorough and clear, and Tyler was extremely communicative throughout the entire process, which made everything seamless and stress-free. I booked him for my daughter’s XV, and he truly went above and beyond. Tyler listened carefully to all of her song requests and put together a hip, amazing playlist that perfectly matched her style and the vibe of the event. He even took the time to visit the venue ahead of the event to scope out the space and make sure everything was set up for the best possible experience. The ceremony songs were absolutely beautiful, and during cocktail hour he was upbeat, engaging, and brought such great energy. We received several compliments from our guests about how much they loved the music and the atmosphere he created. I would absolutely book Tyler again and highly recommend him to anyone looking to elevate their event with a talented, professional, and thoughtful musician.

We got married in March of 2024 at the Ebell Club of Santa Ana. We’re so lucky that someone as thoughtful and organized as Claudia was our wedding coordinator. As a husband/wife duo who manage the execution of films and commercials for a living, we had high expectations for the coordinator of our own wedding. We’re glad to say that Claudia did not disappoint us once in the 9 months that we worked together! (Honestly, we were impressed since Day 1, when she shared with us that her past profession was in the Quality Assurance field.)

Even when we had no idea what songs we wanted he asked for a vibe and executed beyond our wildest dreams. Let me just say, he knows all the right questions to figure out what you need, even when you didn’t know you needed it, and doesn’t make you feel bad when you text him at 10 pm saying you forgot to add a song. Haha. We had a little bit of everything when it comes to music (romantic ceremony, elevated jazz cocktail hour, and a wild Hispanic/English reception) and he melted it together seamlessly. Not to mention our photo booth attendant was HILARIOUS, kept it lively and helped even the drunkest of us get awesome pics. Honest, affordable and everything we were looking for. He even let us take pics behind the booth and as you can tell we were having the greatest end to our night (see pics)

She brought this warm energy and excitement to wedding planning that drew us to her. I was planning a western church wedding that still preserved elements of traditional Vietnamese culture so I really wanted a wedding planner who could anticipate those needs and felt that Jenny was our perfect fit! Our venue already provided catering and bar services so we elected to do the day-of-wedding planning package. We were planning from NorCal which made it challenging in many ways. Jen had several check in’s with us over the months and was extremely responsive via e-mail when we requested assistance, such as needed recommendations for late night snacks. She knew all the best vendors in the area so we felt reassured with our vendor line up with her green light. We were also grateful that she was flexible with our tight schedules when we drove down to SoCal. I was a cricut bride and I had A LOT of DIY decor and activity ideas. Jenny was always encouraging yet realistic. She knew or would figure out how to best execute my vision and always had a back up plan which made me feel so secure about trusting her with creating our vision for our big day. For example, I really wanted to create a warm, rustic look over the dance floor with a ceiling of rattan pendant lights with greenery, which the venue had never done before. She really delivered on working with our venue and thinking thoroughly of all the details for execution! It turned out SO AMAZING, just perfect. We received SO many compliments on the decor from our guests! We couldn’t be more grateful to Jenny and her team for carefully making every detail look perfect. Jenny was very thoughtful about details of the wedding that we would have never personally considered and asked clarifying questions to intently understand what we wanted. Her communication was responsive and clear, and it was just an absolute joy working with her. We HIGHLY recommend her for your wedding planning needs!

Nikki Velasquez Mua is an incredibly professional and talented wedding beauty professional. Her communication was clear, timely, and organized throughout the entire process. The makeup trial before the big day was amazing - not only did Nikki do an incredible job on my makeup and hair, but she also gave me a sweet goodie bag and recommended an affordable place to get my hair extensions. On the wedding day, she made sure I was happy with the final look, gave me a touch-up kit, and ensured I had plenty of time to get everything just right without feeling rushed. Nikki's work was AMAZING and exactly what I asked for - it photographed beautifully and looked stunning. I would 100% recommend Nikki for your wedding makeup needs. Her kindness and ability to deliver the exact bridal vision I had make her a 10/10 in my book!

I cannot recommend Sam enough! She was the day-of coordinator at my wedding, and she made everything run smoothly and effortlessly. From managing the timeline to coordinating with vendors, she took all the stress off my shoulders, allowing me to truly enjoy my day. One of the standout moments was when we had a last-minute issue with our floral arch. Sam immediately stepped in, working with the florist to come up with a beautiful Plan B that saved the day. Her quick thinking, attention to detail, and calming presence were invaluable. If you’re looking for someone who is professional, organized, and passionate about making your wedding day perfect, Sam is your person! I’m so excited to see her grow her own wedding planning business—she’s amazing!

I have so many good things to say about Celebrations by Brandi aside from being AMAZING! First off, she is an wonderful human being. I knew from the beginning that she was the one! Talking with her was like to talking to a girlfriend. She is genuinely kind, warm, fun, and easy to talk to over the phone. I regretted not hiring her from the beginning because I went with another wedding planner (The W Event Planner) due to budget, which was the biggest mistake ever! I ended up losing my deposit with the other event planner, but it was all worth it when I finally got the planner I really wanted from the beginning. I was very grateful that Brandi was still available for my wedding and that she was kind and understanding enough to take me back after explaining what had happened with the previous wedding planner I hired. After that it was history! Brandi became the person to go to for any and all advice (psychological stuff too!). It was so easy to see her as a friend. Being able to fully trust her with every detail of my wedding just made wedding planning that much more less stressful and made the whole process much more fun and exciting. Throughout the whole process Brandi was always available to help calm nerves and offer effective solutions to all problems, big and small. She was always on hand, day or night, to offer support and guidance. I found the enormity of planning a wedding rather overwhelming at times, while trying to live up to the expectations of myself and others. She took away this worry on so many occasions. Her eye for detail, focus on perfection and wealth of knowledge on all things wedding was invaluable. On the day she was by our side with her assistant Victoria, making sure everything ran smoothly, and we trusted their organization and decision making on our very special day. Together, they did an amazing job! I couldn’t have asked for a better duo on my wedding day so if you are looking for a hugely talented lady, who genuinely cares about your wedding – almost as much as you do – then look no further because Celebrations by Brandi can and will deliver 110%. Thank you Brandi and Victoria, you really made our day the best day of our lives!

  • Serves El Toro, CA

Hello! We are the Magic is in the Makeup! I am Liz, the Owner and Lead Stylist. I have been doing Makeup for 19 years and Styling Hair for 10 years. Helping people feel like the most beautiful versions of themselves is why I do what I do! I love beauty and am passionate about helping every Bride and Bridal Guest feel their best on their Special Day. My team members are just as experienced and have similar training, as well as passion! I attended and graduated from The Empire Academy of Makeup and worked for and was trained by MAC cosmetics, Bobbi Brown and Laura Mercier. We would love to be the ones to put the final touches on you!

Liz was so easy to work with and very easy to communicate with. She did my hair and makeup trial on my rehearsal day because that’s what worked for me logistically, and she absolutely nailed the look that I wanted. She then executed it flawlessly again the next day for my wedding and I could not be happier with the result. She is punctual, professional, clearly very experienced, and she listens to what you want. Every single person who got a service from her was thrilled with the outcome. My mother in law originally only signed up to get her hair done, but after she saw how great everyone’s makeup looked she asked if she could get makeup done too and Liz was able to fit her into the schedule AND still get everyone done on time. I felt so beautiful and elegant and my husband could not stop complimenting the way she did my hair and makeup, and he does not give compliments out unless they are well-deserved!!! I don’t have close ups of my hair and makeup yet, but I’ll come back and add them later if I can!

It is my fortune to have Herbert as my wedding photographer. This gentleman is responsible, skillful, and friendly overall. Herbert and his assistant arrived one hour earlier than any of us to take pictures and videos of the wedding site. During the wedding, he kept shooting videos without taking a break. after the wedding ceremony, every guest left the wedding but him. he suggested my wife and I for more night time videos. Herbert had been working over 12 hours during that day. Not long after the wedding, Herbert sent us the demo of our wedding video and asked our suggestions. We gave a few of our thoughts, and he sent back the final video and It was a immaculate wedding video. Every detail of the wedding, the background music, and the whole color are perfect. I would like to recommend this photographer to anyone who needs one. It was a great experience with Herbert on my wedding day.
