Awarded Best of Zola
I was referred to Mandy by my hairstylist and I am forever grateful. Mandy is a down-to-earth bright spirited professional. Other make up artists tend to push and pull you in a direction. Mandy does the opposite. She knows the questions to ask and creates a comfortable environment where you find yourself talking with a friend. Make up can be vulnerable experience for a bride, and all Mandy wants to do is enhance is your beauty and let your smile come through. She is knowledgeable on techniques, trends, and brands. Working with Mandy was a truly collaborative and fun experience. It was comforting to know that she was always focused on me, ready for a touch up or adjustment. She was a trusted friend throughout the day and I know I’ll look back on those photos years from now with the comfort I looked like myself and felt stunning! You’ll be lucky and feel spoiled to have her on your team!

The Black Rose 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
Manhattan Beach, CA
  • Florist
  • Starts at $4,000

The Black Rose has been flowering all over greater Los Angeles for the past 12 years, enjoying success with events, parties, pop-ups and weddings. Our style is elevated with a touch of whimsy, imaginative and always inspired by the inherent beauty of nature and botany.

Working with Black Rose was one of the very best decisions we made for our wedding. From our very first conversation, Rachel listened to my vision and somehow brought it to life even more beautifully than I could have imagined. Every detail — from the bridal bouquet to the staircase accents and reception tables — was thoughtful, artful, and perfectly cohesive. The flowers were undeniably breathtaking, with every detail—from the containers to the candles—adding a touch of elegance to each visual element. If you are looking for someone who can create wow moments and turn your ideas into something magical, look no further. I cannot recommend Black Rose Floral highly enough.

Awarded Best of Zola
I agree with the hundreds of 5-star reviews of Second Song, but I wanted to specifically give a shout out to DJ Tyler O! While Second Song made the process leading up to the wedding easy and seamless (and the cold sparklers were a hit), DJ Tyler did an amazing job at my wedding and absolutely CRUSHED the dance floor. My husband and I have differing music tastes, but DJ Tyler was able to find common ground and played banger after banger that kept all of our guests on the dance floor till the very end. As someone who goes to music festivals often, I was impressed by his mixing skills and appreciated that there was never an abrupt transition between songs. He also did an amazing job MC’ing and executed all of our requests for playing specific songs at certain times and starting songs in the middle. I don’t think you can go wrong with any DJ’s with Second Song, but I do highly recommend picking DJ Tyler O!

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Seth from Vital Event Group for our September wedding, and he exceeded every expectation! From the start, Seth’s professionalism and easy-going nature made the planning process stress-free. His use of the Vibo app was such a game-changer—it allowed us to easily upload our song selections and ceremony/reception timeline details, making communication and organization effortless. We gave Seth just a handful of songs to set the vibe, and he curated an incredible playlist that perfectly matched the energy we wanted. What impressed us most was how attentive he was to the dance floor—when guests weren’t feeling a particular track, Seth quickly pivoted and got everyone back on their feet. By the end of the night, the energy was sky-high, and our friends and family couldn’t stop raving about how much fun they had! On top of all that, Seth’s DJ booth setup was sleek and clean, and we loved being able to display our photos and videos on his screen—it added such a personal and unique touch to the night. We can’t recommend Seth and Vital Event Group enough. If you’re looking for a DJ who’s professional, adaptable, and truly knows how to keep the party alive, Seth is the one! Thanks Seth!!

Randall de Leon Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (51 reviews)
  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Manhattan Beach, 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
It was a true pleasure to have Randall and his staff a part of our wedding vendor team. He is a true professional and master at his craft. My wife and I were very particular in choosing our wedding photographer. We knew that our wedding photos were going to last forever and wanted to be sure that the photographer we choose was going to capture all of the essential moments. Every photographer has their own style when it comes to editing the photos and Randall’s was exactly what we were looking for. After we wrapped up our initial consultation call, my wife and I knew that he was the photographer we wanted. He was easy to communicate with and we felt very comfortable with him as if we had know each other for years. He built us a personalized package that accommodated all of our specific needs. Leading up to our special day, he made sure to check in on us multiple times and made sure we never had to worry about a thing. His knowledge and experience as a wedding photographer made us feel like we had another wedding coordinator. He knew all of the ins and outs and was going to be prepared for any unexpected changes that might come his way. On the day of the wedding, him and his staff were able to seamlessly work with our videographer to capture all of the important moments we wanted. They were well organized and had a clear game plan. I cannot stress how important having him was on the day of the wedding. He kept my wife and I at ease and was able to adjust to all of the twist and turns that were thrown at him. He was always looking out for us as a couple and made sure our best interests were held. Everyone involved with our wedding spoke so highly of him and his staff. If we were to choose an MVP of the day, Randall takes the cake. We were so excited when he told us our gallery was ready to view and when our hard drive was available to pickup. He captured every single moment and every time we look through the photos we can relive one of the most important days of our lives. We truly appreciate Randall and will always recommend him to any of our family or friends. There is no one else we will call if we ever need a photographer.

Can't say enough about the quality of James's work, his attention to detail, his professionalism, and curating the best dance party experience at our wedding!! From start to finish he was extremely prepared and provided us with all the materials needed to organize the music and run of show. As both DJ and MC, James truly went the extra mile to make our day run seamlessly, and made us feel so special. He was even accommodating to our last minute music requests and was very patient with us. In addition to being extremely professional, prepared, and organized, he is such a down-to-earth and kind, genuine person. He even captured some videos of our first dance and grand entrance that we wouldn't have had otherwise because we didn't have a videographer. This was so thoughtful and truly above and beyond! We personally added on the photo booth option and are glad we did, as it was a hit. His rates were very reasonable as well especially for the package we got. Everyone raved about James and the music.

Faulks Floral Co. was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From our very first interaction, their communication was easy, thoughtful, and incredibly helpful - they really listened to our vision and preferences. Jonathan came to the ceremony location (my father's backyard) and really understood the space and what would work best. I enjoyed working with him and had absolute confidence everything would be beautiful. I did not even go to the ceremony space or reception space to check on anything. The floral arch, floral arrangements and bouquets they created were simply stunning, with a superior level of artistry and quality that exceeded our expectations.

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!!

I’m Peter, the guy behind Bedrosian Photo. I photograph weddings, people, parties, emotion, chaos, and all the weird little moments in between. I care way more about honesty than perfection — the nervous energy before a ceremony, your drunk uncle on the dance floor, your grandma crying quietly in the corner, or the split-second look your partner gives you when they think nobody’s watching. Those moments matter more than anything staged ever could.

He captured so many beautiful candid moments and worked with such professionalism. We were blown away by how quickly he delivered our photos, just two days after the wedding, we had them all! His great personality and professionalism truly made the experience so enjoyable. We couldn’t recommend him more, hire him!

They are just LIFESAVERS! For some reason, don’t ask me why, we decided to look for Photographers about 1 month before our wedding day. And by true luck, they were still available. They were recommended by my mother. She was at my cousin’s wedding, and she was amazed at how well the photographer operated on the wedding day. I contacted them, and the whole process of booking wasn’t difficult at all. They had answers to all of my questions and concerns I had at that moment, everything was really easy and smooth. They showed me that it would be beneficial for us to consider booking a videographer as well. Luckily we had a budget and, oh my god, it would be horrible if I didn’t get video as well. On the actual day, their level of customer service was nothing but excellent! Since it’s our first wedding :), we had no clue how the shooting process worked, I was a little bit concerned about that, but the way they operated and instructed us was so smooth and seamless, it was as good as it could be done! The result was amazing! Both photos and videos were shot and edited very professionally. In the photos, we looked like we are models from the cover of a magazine. The video wasn’t some ordinary romantic wedding video, it was a movie, with great storytelling and a fantastic choice of music! My husband and I recommend them!

Hiring Tavi was easily the best thing we could have done for ourselves when we started wedding planning. We really had no idea what we were doing, I was super anxious about everything, and Tavi guided us through it all with grace, expertise, and humor. She helped us figure out what we actually wanted our wedding to look like (a rainbow fruit and vegetable disco party), what was important to us, our budget, our vendors, and most importantly, she kept me from losing my mind (which, let's be honest, is probably the biggest reason you hire a wedding planner, right?). She put together an amazing vendor team that brought our vision to life even more than we could have hoped for. After the wedding, we got so many compliments about how great it was, and how it was the best wedding they'd been to, no exaggeration. You can see it in our photos--everyone had a blast, and we loved every second of it. Our parents were so impressed by how Tavi and her assistant handled everything on the day of--and she'd also had a wedding the day before, so that's saying something. She was always on her A-game, always responsive, and we would hire her again in a heartbeat. And you should hire her too!

From start to finish, Carlos helped make the celebration unforgettable. Highly recommend him if you want a DJ who’s professional, personable, and knows how to throw a great party!

We cannot thank Maria enough for the absolutely stunning florals at our wedding! From the centerpieces to the sweetheart table, every detail was breathtaking. She truly brought our vision to life and exceeded all our expectations. Not only is Maria incredibly talented, but she was also a joy to work with-so kind, professional, communicative and attentive to every request.

My focus is quality. I take my job seriously and I hope that I can make you happy so that you’ll consider me for your next event, and any event thereafter. 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.

DJ Trey is THE BEST DJ!!! I wish we had even more time on the dance floor to keep letting him mix because he’s a genuinely fantastic DJ! Not just a DJ who sets up an iPhone or Spotify and lets it ride mindlessly, but a DJ who reads the crowd, takes input from the bride and groom, and uses his skill and best judgement to provide music that gets everyone on the dance floor. Literally everyone at our wedding was on their feet for dancing and loved all the music DJ Trey played! He also was fantastic in making sure all of the music played on their appropriate cues and was well-prepared. He was great to work with for our wedding and we can’t wait to throw another party just so we have an excuse to use DJ Trey again!

Anna was so great in helping me throughout the process of planning our wedding photos. The first time I met her I could tell that she genuinely loves weddings and understood the editorial concept I was aiming for. We worked together on a mood board and fulfilled the style on the day of. I loved the team she brought and their dynamic together.

Tempoe Entertainment Djs were an excellent choice for our wedding. Their communication style was thorough, clear, and upbeat throughout the planning process. On the day of, they kept the party going strong even when my husband and I were pulled away to other things. The people at the reception had so much fun dancing the night away thanks to Joe, the DJ, who was excellent. Joe led the guests in fun dances and kept us all pumped up! Even the groom, who is not a big dancer (yet!), was super impressed with Joe's work - which is saying a lot. Tempoe provided great value and quality service that contributed greatly to making our special day perfect. Joe also helped a lot with getting us to think through some of wedding details. His input helped us be more sure as we finalized. If we have another party of any kind, we will hire Tempoe! Just so great overall!

Working with Carissa was an absolute dream! I honestly can’t imagine planning our wedding, or enjoying the day itself, without her. She was beyond detail-oriented, kind, patient, and creative! She handled so much behind the scenes that I would never have been able to manage on my own. Carissa created such a detailed timeline that even our reception venue, who has seen plenty of weddings, was impressed. Everything ran so smoothly, and Carissa was so on top of vendor communication that she took a huge burden off of us. Her guidance and calm presence made the entire day completely stress-free. What I loved most about working with Carissa was how she truly listened to my vision and made all of my wedding dreams come true. She didn’t just plan a wedding…she created an unforgettable day that was uniquely ours. I am so grateful for everything she did!

From start to finish, working with Aladdin Films was a great experience. Ali and his teammate responded to our messages right away and were always honest about what they could deliver, which meant a lot to us. On the wedding day, they were flexible when we needed to change locations and showed real dedication to their work. Despite having limited time for filming and photos, they brought serious creativity to everything they captured. We felt like they genuinely cared about making our day special, and we'll definitely be recommending them to friends and family.
