  • Offers 7 services
  • Starts at $1,000
  • Serves Lakewood, CA

We believe that beautiful weddings are built on a foundation of absolute trust and transparency. To give our couples complete peace of mind, we utilize an upfront, all-inclusive pricing structure. Alongside our curated custom packages, our baseline includes a Premium Execution Fee (our comprehensive "Puff Fee"). What does this mean for you? It means we don't surprise you with hidden upcharges for things that should be standard. This flat fee covers the heavy lifting behind the scenes—unlimited vendor communication hours, meticulous logistics scouting, emergency backup plans, and the full physical setup and teardown

We hired Popfizz Event Planners to handle our wedding and couldn't be happier with our choice. From our first meeting, the team was responsive and easy to work with—they answered our questions quickly and made sure we felt heard throughout the entire planning process. Their attention to detail was clear in every aspect of our wedding day, from the florals to the timeline to the overall flow of events. What impressed us most was how they managed to create something truly special while staying within our budget. Our guests are still talking about how seamless everything felt, and we credit that to Popfizz's professionalism and dedication. We'd absolutely recommend them to any couple looking for a planner who actually listens and delivers.

  • Serves Lakewood, CA

I’ve been very fortunate to be an event planner these last 10 years, specializing in weddings, corporate events, and social gatherings. What started as a personal passion has turned into a successful business. I’ve always loved entertaining and having my family and friends over, there’s just something so special about being surrounded by loved ones and showing them a good time. This passion has translated over to my work and I aim to bring that same feeling I get to all my clients. I’m passionate about bringing my client’s vision to life, and I’m known for my attention to detail and creative approach.

Working with Yanna at LUXE EVENTS was such a great decision for our wedding. From our first conversation, she listened carefully to what we wanted and made sure we felt heard every step of the way. Yanna brought our flower vision to life in a way we didn't even know was possible, and her responsiveness over the phone made planning feel easy. She was genuinely excited for us throughout the whole process, which made such a difference in how we felt leading up to the big day. The details she put into every aspect of our wedding were elegant and thoughtful, and we could tell she really cared about making our day special. We can't recommend her highly enough.

Sovereign K is a Los Angeles–based wedding planning and coordination studio, producing refined celebrations throughout Southern California and California's Central Coast. We love creating weddings where every detail is thoughtfully considered, allowing couples to be fully present and genuinely enjoy one of the most meaningful days of their lives. With over a decade of experience, I've learned that beautiful celebrations are about creating an experience that feels welcoming, effortless, and personal whether providing full-service planning or wedding day coordination, we offer custom levels of support.

My husband and I recently celebrated a beautiful wedding ceremony and reception, and we owe so much of its success to Sovereign K. We were planning a fairly large wedding in less than three months, and after securing our venue and a few vendor recommendations, I quickly realized just how many moving parts there were to manage. Hiring Sovereign K was one of the best decisions we made. From the moment we brought them on, they immediately put us at ease. Kim took charge of vendor communication, created detailed ceremony and reception timelines, and kept us informed every step of the way while thoughtfully accommodating any changes we wanted to make. On the wedding day, Kim was absolutely incredible. She remained calm, organized, and adaptable throughout the entire event. When our photographer requested "just 20 more minutes" for additional photos, she seamlessly adjusted the timeline without missing a beat. Everything we had hoped for was accomplished, and we were able to fully enjoy our celebration without worrying about the details.

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!!

Grand Entrance Affairs is a wedding-planning business located in Los Angeles, CA. Owner and lead planner, Ingrid, has 14+ years of industry experience and connections and a great passion for helping people celebrate their cherished milestone moments. She is a big "people person" and thrives on the excitement and energy that comes with planning weddings and other special events. Ingrid’s ultimate goal for each client is to create an event they can be fully present to enjoy with their nearest and dearest. From the initial design to the day-of delivery, she and her team are dedicated to creating the wedding of your dreams—piece by piece.

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

If you need an organized, detail-oriented, and reliable wedding planner, we highly recommend Carissa. As busy professionals planning on an accelerated timeline (under six months), opting for her full-service package was the best decision we made. Excellent Vision & Design We initially sought out a designer in the wedding planning process, and Carissa delivered and more. We started only with vague ideas, a list of dislikes, and a general vibe for our guests but no color scheme, mood board, or concrete design. Through thoughtful questions and curated options, Carissa translated our input into a cohesive vision we loved. She brought it to life by seamlessly coordinating with our florist and helping style the groom. Expert Guidance & Execution Planning without Carissa would have been hectic. The time she saved us and the efficiency and smoothness of her execution were phenomenal. Having her at vendor and venue visits gave us peace of mind because we had someone who knew exactly what to ask and pushed the vendors to deliver. Her monthly check-ins and master checklist kept us on schedule without feeling overwhelmed. She handled most vendor correspondence, offered budget-respecting recommendations, and patiently answered our questions (big and small). Having someone to lean on for guidance and input every step of the way was invaluable for our busy schedules. A Stress-Free Wedding Day On the wedding day, Carissa’s detailed timeline that covered everything from hair and makeup arrival to vendor setups kept logistics running smoothly without any effort on our end. Her inclusion of planned breaks between events gave us quiet moments to reset, greet guests, and actually enjoy the celebration. Carissa handled behind-the-scenes issues seamlessly. When the venue set out the wrong (and clashing!) wine glasses, she caught the mistake, got the venue to reset everything to baseline before any guests sat down, and later secured us a refund for the upgrade we paid for. Even while recovering from ankle injuries that week, Carissa was fully present, coordinating with her assistants, bustling the bride’s dress, and checking in on us throughout the night. Many of our guests commented on how remarkably smooth everything went. Carissa’s organization, professionalism, and warm demeanor set her apart. We are so glad we did the full-service planning with her, and we cannot recommend her enough!

Hi! Thanks so much for your interest in working together. I’m Jackie, a Wedding & Event Planner based in Southern California (and beyond, always) I’ve been in the event world for what feels like my entire life.

This review is long overdue! Working with The Social Event Planner was an absolute pleasure. Jackie and her team were quick, efficient, professional, and easy to communicate with throughout the entire planning process. Their work was truly amazing and the decor they created for our wedding was absolutely beautiful and way better than anything I could create. Jackie provided exceptional day-of coordination and assistance with decorating the cocktail hour and reception spaces. All I had to do was create a mock-up table and provide the decorations. She was responsive, quick to jump in and tie up any loose ends, and made our wedding day as stress-free as possible. Jackie went above and beyond my expectations, and she and her assistant ensured everything looked perfect and assisted with cleanup after the wedding. We are so grateful to have found Jackie via social median and would highly recommend The Social Event Planner to any couple planning their wedding.

(Full disclaimer: This was before Jill’s prices went up.) I originally was looking for a day-of-coordinator for my wedding because my budget at the time was under 1k for one, but Jill gave me a great deal at the time to be a full on wedding planner as she was just starting her business. And I’m glad I went with that option because I didn’t realize how much goes into the type of wedding I wanted. If you’re having a wedding that has over 110 guests and has a lot of moving parts- you need to hire a wedding planner (with an assistant ideally). In hindsight, I think I would have paid a little extra for an assistant as well because there were some details in the reception that were overlooked-through no one’s fault- just a lot was going on that day. Thankfully, none of the guests noticed these missing details (Like the customized dessert bags that were never used, or candy that were still in boxes, the heaters not being put up on time -This was a November wedding, and the wedding cake missing its decorative flowers). But this was a learning experience, and overall, I’m thankful to have had Jill by my side, because I think things would have been much worse if I didn’t have her help. At one point, a second mariachi band showed up announced, but that was taken care of lol. I’m not sure what other wedding planners do, but I was happy that Jill allowed me the freedom to come up with the vision and design for my wedding, while she took care of the logistics and planning- like arranging video call meetups w/ the vendors and venue which helped a lot. It also helped that her schedule was flexible despite some personal family emergencies that happened during the process. I’m sure once her business grows more she will be able to get the extra help needed to plan much bigger, more fantastical weddings! Overall, I would recommend Jill as a wedding planner: She’s very down-to-earth, punctual (thank you for getting to the courthouse on time while I was running late) , professional, compassionate- took well to my notes, and concerns, and jumped to the occasion. Thanks again, Jill!

I met Christina at a Bridal Expo and was amazed with the offered Day Of Coordination package. I was able to easily communicate my priorities on the special day and even share my wedding pet peeves to avoid. Christina was excellent at brainstorming ideas and suggested plenty of ways to approach a situation. When we worked on building the timeline together, she was very thorough and insightful. I sent her so many timeline revisions (as timing means EVERYTHING and it definitely matters), but Christina took them and made it look seamless. On the wedding day, Christina and her team (thank you Heather and Leanna!) made sure we were happy and stress-free. Our morning started with Heather running the errands of the busy morning and was the go-to person for myself and the wedding entourage. Heather was also able to help us create a floral bouquet we used for our ceremony offering. It turned out so beautiful! She did a terrific job. I was always reminded to take a bite of food and to stay hydrated while we were getting ready. Christina helped us execute the ribbon wand exit after our church ceremony. It turned out to be one of the highlights of the day. Everyone had so much fun doing it. As for the reception, Ingobo was able to help set the table decorations- centerpieces, candles, name cards, order of guests, etc. Leanna was at our side making sure we were well-fed and no one pulled us away from the sweetheart table. She was able to give us reminders of the timeline and was very sweet. Overall, Christina and her team orchestrated our wedding day perfectly. We received many compliments from our guests stating they noticed how smooth the day went. Ingobo's Day of Coordination services made a huge impact on how we were able to enjoy our special day. My husband and I are truly grateful for hiring them as part of our wedding team.

Planning a destination wedding in Cairo, Egypt came with its fair share of complexities. We had guests traveling from all over the world and were trying to blend three cultures - Lebanese, Egyptian, and American. In Egypt, most wedding planners focus only on décor and receptions, so I found myself struggling with the schedule and flow of logistics beyond that. There were so many moving parts - the ceremony, the bridal party, the reception - and I didn’t have a planner or a day-of coordinator to help me execute the day smoothly. Alex stepped in and became my anchor. She gathered every detail and built an hour-by-hour plan that carried us through the day, from getting ready to the end of the night. That included the procession of the church ceremony, the musical cues, the reception entrance order, the dj song list order, etc. She helped me create breakout schedules to give to each vendor so they all knew what part of the day mattered for them to take part in. Alex brought so much understanding and cultural awareness to our wedding. She respected the way that weddings are done in Egypt, Lebanon, and America, and helped me blend certain moments from each tradition into our wedding. Every special moment flowed. I truly couldn’t imagine how the day would have went without her. She gave me peace of mind, comfort, and support that made me feel extremely take care of on the most important day of my life.

Our day was perfect!  Amy and James were so professional, detail oriented, friendly, caring and all the things we needed them to be for our big day.  Amy confirmed with all the vendors, was available whenever needed for questions, they managed the set up, kept us on time, and packed up all the stuff at the end of the event.   I had zero stress about the details and was able to just be the bride on our wedding day. I highly recommend Love Like Crazy for any event planning needs you may have.

We had such a great experience working with Desiree. Immediately when I met with her, I knew she was the perfect Day of Coordinator for us. Her energy was positive and friendly. We booked with Desiree for our destination wedding in Yosemite National Park. With the specific NPS event requirements, DIY decor, and traveling, Desiree was so helpful during our consultation and helped me stay on track with all the intricate details of what was needed for the ceremony and reception. A few of our family and friends commented on how much they liked Desiree and were glad that she was our Day of Coordinator.

Sabina was a blessing to work with: from helping me discern what was really important and prioritize, to assisting me to reformat my notes and timelines for staff, to bringing new, creative ideas to improve a triple story wedding flow, to calming and reassuring me it all was going to be great! She was my favorite, go-to clarity wedding angel. I highly recommend Sabina for your wedding planning and execution. My wedding came together so well and it was such a relief to hand it over to capable people like Sabina to make my vision come to life.

Natalie is the sweetest, most detail oriented wedding planner I’ve ever met!!! Her and her husband Daniel make such a great team. Along with Lead Production Designer Brendan, Assistant Luke, Production Assistant Caterina, and her whole Production team, they all contributed significantly to my big wedding day! From the moment we started working with Natalie at our first initial call, we felt an instant sigh of relief that we were able to work with someone who understood our vision. Natalie was able to build mood boards and decks of beautiful inspiration photos after describing to her how we wanted our wedding to look and feel. She worked with us as a partial wedding planner, although we truly wished we found her from the start to book her as a full wedding planner! With every decision that needed to be made along the process (whether it was deciding to spend more on an item or cut back on other items) she always made sure to lay out ALL the options, which helped us make an informed decision. Natalie even took a day out of her time to go shopping with me for welcome table decor the week of my wedding to ensure that we had something ready and set up for the big day! We are so impressed with her kindness, patience, and professionalism in the wedding planning industry! I truly recommend her to any couple that is looking for someone who is responsive, extremely detail oriented, and knows how to work within your budget! Our dream wedding was not possible with you!!!!

Working with Michelle has been an absolute pleasure. We selected Michelle because of her long successful track record and also because we have close friends who admitted that Michelle was to be trusted. Selecting a planner can be difficult but thankfully we were blessed with the best one! My wife expects nothing but perfection so the communication between her and Michelle was constant. Everytime my wife had a question or some reassurance; Michelle was there to assist immediately. As a husband, what I appreciated the most was her attention to detail and her calmness. She would always jot down all of our wishes and requests in her notebook in which I respected because there were a lot of asks on our end. Such a professional, responsible, trustworthy person. Thank you Michelle and to the team for allowing my wife and I to enjoy our special day. I would trust your work with my family and friends.
