LUXE EVENTS by yanna

  • Offers 7 services
  • Starts at $1
  • Serves Manhattan Beach, 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.

Yanna was exceptional. Her taste, the set up, responsiveness, and communication, going above and beyond were all excellent. We had over 450 guests and people are still talking about our party after a couple of months. It was truly magical.

Desiree from Serenity Weddings made our entire wedding experience feel effortless and truly enjoyable. From our very first call, she made us feel comfortable and supported. Her communication was quick, clear, and reassuring. I could tell right away that she genuinely cared about making our day everything we hoped for. She was incredibly organized and kept all of our vendors perfectly in sync, making sure every detail was handled and nothing fell through the cracks. Thanks to her, the entire planning process felt smooth and stress-free. On our wedding day, she went above and beyond, driving all the way from Los Angeles to Winters just to be there for us. She stayed calm, kept us calm, and somehow thought of every little thing (including having cough drops in her pocket right when I needed them!). We’re endlessly grateful for her dedication, kindness, and professionalism. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect, and we truly couldn’t have done it without Desiree and Serenity Weddings.

I contacted Terri, at TMF, to discuss my daughter’s upcoming bridal shower and she was amazing!  I had a few ideas of what I was looking for and she understood what I was imagining and really refined what I was thinking and converted my few thoughts into a cohesive theme and a beautiful event for my daughter! The bridal shower was beautiful!  The decor, theme, drinks, food, tables and chairs, decorations, umbrellas… and so many details… all came together so beautifully. It was quite impressive to see the event space transformed into my daughter’s dream shower! Because Terri is so creative, organized, resourceful and is a great communicator, I was able to host my daughter’s bridal shower and actually participate and enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime moment stress free.  I highly recommend contacting Terri/TMF to anybody who wants a true professional to create an amazing event guests will really love and you can be proud to host.

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!!

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. I spent a decade as a professional DJ, years producing corporate events, owned a catering business for a while, and even stepped into private cheffing during COVID. The common thread through it all? I genuinely love throwing a great party.

We cannot recommend Jackie enough! She was an AMAZING event planner. My husband and I live in Ireland (although I'm originally from LA), so it was crucial to hire someone we could rely on to be on top of everything and give expert advise. Her organization skills and attention to detail were a life saver. She really helped put us at ease from our initial call and subseqent video chats after that. She understood our vision and really helped us make it come to life. Removing any unnecessary stress from our special day. It turned out so much better than we could've imagined.

Alexandra Khoury Modon’s path to founding à la Modon Events is anything but conventional—woven through years of discipline, artistic expression, and an insatiable drive to bring visions to life. From visual and theatrical artist to Division I tennis player, courtroom prosecutor, and now event planner, she has mastered high-pressure environments, honed meticulous attention to detail, and refined the art of storytelling. Today, she channels that same precision and creativity into designing seamless, deeply personal events that reflect each client’s unique story.

From our first conversation with Alex at Modon Events, we knew we had found our planner. She kept us informed every step of the way and gave us honest feedback about what would work best for our vision. Alex coordinated with all our vendors seamlessly and even scored us some great deals we didn't expect. What really set her apart was how much she cared—nothing was ever too much to ask, and she treated us like family throughout the entire process. She somehow manages to juggle being a working mom while still delivering the kind of attention to detail that made my princess wedding a reality. Alex refused to settle until we were 100% happy, and it shows. She's truly a rockstar, and we can't recommend her enough!

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.

(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!

Hi, I’m Kelsey your wedding day’s calm in the chaos 💛 Your bridal bestie you didn’t know you needed. After 15 years in hospitality, I’ve learned how to read a room before anything ever goes off track. That intuition is what keeps your wedding day smooth, stress free, and full of joy. I make sure every moment feels effortless. Based in Covina and serving all of Southern California including LA County, Orange County, Inland Empire, and San Diego+ Beyond I’m always ready to travel for love. Now booking 2026, 2027, + 2028 weddings Let’s make this official your date is waiting Follow along on Instagram everafterbykeke I can’t wait to marry you!

I can't write enough great things to say about Kelsey and her company Ever After by Keke. My now wife and I were struggling to get things planned for our wedding reception. We began the process with some nice wins but found out very quickly that this would be a much larger task than we imagined. We were referred to Kelsey by a family member and from Day 1 she turned what was a major stressor in our lives to becoming the best asset we had going for us. She was amazing at coordinating every aspect of the process with us, our vendors, and the venue. It wasn't easy. There were a lot of moving parts but at each point Kelsey helped with any and all questions that came her way. Whether it was contacting the vendors, or making sure the venue was ok with certain changes, she made sure to keep us up to date on everything. She was even able to give us both a photobooth and DJ recommendation when the original parties had to back out 2 weeks before our party. With all of this said, she somehow outshined all of the planning and prep processes by being an absolute rockstar on the day of the reception. We had a very tight window to get things set up and decorated. Kelsey and her team did an INCREDIBLE job and made our day more than we had ever imagined. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Whether it was communication, being our therapist for certain issues, giving us recs, and executing the day of she was most professional person we could have hired. If anyone needs a rec, please feel free to reach out to me!

From start to finish, Love Like Crazy made planning our wedding feel effortless and exciting. We had a backyard wedding and they listened to what we wanted and brought our vision to life in ways we didn't even know were possible—the decor was stunning and felt totally us. Their communication was clear and consistent, and they had a way of making the whole process fun instead of stressful. We never had to worry about whether things would come together because they stayed on top of every detail. The creativity and care they put into our day showed in everything, from setup to the final moments. We can't recommend them highly enough to couples looking for a planner who truly cares about making their wedding special.

We were thrilled with Grande Events as our wedding planner. Their communication throughout the entire planning process was thorough, concise, courteous, and always prompt. They responded to emails within 24 hours and made sure all our vendors were looped in on important details. The quality of their work was fantastic - every document, timeline, layout, etc. was neat, detailed, and beautiful. On our big day, they went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly, coordinating seamlessly with all our vendors and wedding party. The ceremony flowed perfectly in the order we desired thanks to their attention to detail. We truly appreciated their dedication to understanding our vision and bringing it to life.

Sabina was the star of our wedding night. She did a wonderful job assisting all of our vendors with their assignments and handling miscellaneous tasks of organizing and setting up odds and ends we left for her (with little instruction). At no point throughout our wedding did we or any of our loved ones have to think about logistics, organization, decoration or cleaning. She also was great at helping manage family dynamics! We were able to fully enjoy every moment of the day knowing if anything came up she was ready for it. She brought many of her own tools to keep her prepared for any situation and was incredibly comforting at each stage of the night. I highly recommend Sabina as a planner and even more-so recommend her as a person! I don't plan on getting married again, but if I do I know Sabina will be there.

Jessica and the 3LB (3 little birds) team did an amazing job with my daughter’s Parisian themed bat mitzvah with the planning, decorating, and day of planning! The most impressive thing was we shifted venues from outdoors to indoors less than a week before the event and they turned a drab reception hall into a Parisian café wonderland. For their day of coordination, the day went off without a hitch with everything running smoothly down to almost the minute. They helped with planning and pre-party meetings every step of the way. When the event happened, it looked stunningly beautiful and all I had to do was relax and enjoy. Highly recommend!

Our wedding day felt absolutely effortless thanks to Sarah. From the very beginning, she was perfectly organized, detail-oriented, and genuinely invested in making sure our vision came to life exactly the way we imagined it. She puts so much care into what she does, and it truly shows in every detail. She listened to all of our wishes and executed them flawlessly, allowing us to relax and actually feel like guests at our own wedding — something every couple hopes for but rarely gets to experience. She may be small, but she packs a big punch! Her energy, professionalism, and dedication made such a huge impact on our day. We truly couldn’t have asked for anyone better to be on our side, advocating for us and bringing our wedding dreams to life. If you’re looking for someone who is organized, passionate, and completely committed to making your day perfect, she is the one. We are endlessly grateful for everything she did to make our wedding so special.

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!!!!
