“The Ojai Retreat & Inn was everything we could have asked for for our wedding in early November!! We rented the whole property for our wedding party and the weekend felt like a dream oasis! Before the wedding, we were able to immerse ourselves in the serenity of the Ojai Retreat by taking a stroll on the nature path. We also enjoyed nearby restaurants (Bonnie Lu's for breakfast and Ca'Marco for our Rehearsal Dinner) that were a short car ride away. We used the living room area and the upstairs library for getting ready spaces and they were well air-conditioned and provided more than enough space for all of us- without the groom seeing the bride, of course. Then during our ceremony and reception, the beauty of the landscape and views made for marvelous photos and memories! It was truly magical and felt like an enchanted fairytale! On top of the beauty of the property, everyone who works at the Ojai Retreat & Inn is so kind and helpful! A special thank you to Dana and Lia for your help and to all the workers who helped move lawn furniture before our rentals needed to unload. They were so flexible with us and worked with us on our many random questions and requests. We can't wait to come back to the Ojai Retreat & Inn for our anniversaries!!”

i grew up in europe and from the age of 10 used analogue film cameras. i eventually became a fashion/people photographer in milan, austria, new york city and LA. the nostalgia of polaroids inspired me to make weddings films in a more abstract and ephemeral way, like dreams. my films aim to provide a glimpse of what it felt like on your day, conveying an unmistakable essence about you and the experience.

“Working with Michael from start to finish was absolutely lovely! He is a true artist. He genuinely got to know us and our story beforehand, and by the time we finally met - he felt like an old friend. From the moment they arrived, he and his assistant were ninjas, getting everything from drone shots (!?) to go-pro footage of the groomsmen in the pool. He never hesitated to throw out amazing ideas and things we could capture. Once we finally had the video - we were ecstatic. It blew our minds! It basically should go to Sundance. But really... wow, we wept looking at the most joyous day of our life be reflected to us in such a cinematic and intimate way. This was not your regular wedding video. It was spectacular! We had a chance to show some of our closest friends right away, and of course, everyone was in love with it, and the consensus was, "This is LITERALLY A FILM!" "This filmmaker is incredible," lots of tears, laughs, smiles etc etc :) We absolutely agree. I can't express enough how awesome Michael is; we LOVE his work! Thank you, thank you, thank you. We are so grateful to have had him as part of our day! To sum it up, he is an absolute pleasure to work with; he has an incredible eye and is professional, collaborative, and kind.”

They explored our venue ahead of time to find the best photo spots, guided us through the entire process, and delivered our photos with a super quick turnaround. Laura and her team really took the time to get to know my husband and I, which made the whole experience feel so personal. They were also incredibly flexible and willing to work with all the dynamics of my family.

Hearth is a family-owned, Latin-inspired wood-fired pizzeria based in Moorpark, California. We began as a small catering service that grew into our dream of opening a restaurant. Now, we have the privilege of returning to our roots by bringing our ovens, handmade sourdough, seasonal ingredients, and warm hospitality to weddings and events throughout Los Angeles, Ventura, and Santa Barbara counties. We’re here for couples who want to skip the traditional steak or chicken dinner and share something more fun, personal, and memorable with their guests, without spending their entire wedding budget on dinner.

“From our first conversation, the team at Hearth Restaurant & Catering made us feel confident about our choice. They collaborated with us to create a menu that felt personal to us and our day. They asked for our tastes and preferences and designed three pizzas just for us! Once the wedding day arrived, the charcuterie they prepared for cocktail hour was fantastic and set the perfect tone for the reception and dinner to follow. While it was table dismissal for our guests, their staff went above and our wedding party got served table-side! This ended up being one of our favorite parts of the evening as it meant we could sit back and really enjoy so many fun moments together with those closest to us! Every dish tasted incredible and the whole experience felt like they genuinely cared about making our day special. We can't recommend Hearth highly enough for anyone looking for a catering team that not only makes delicious pies, but that wants to make your experience and day one you’ll never forget! We love Hearth!”

Once we find someone, we put them through a rigorous training process so they meet all of our requirements that our clients expect when hiring Bouquet Sound. This is what your guests will take home from them. Your wedding day is one of the most important days of your life. It is even more important for us to put that same love and care into your event!

Awarded Best of Zola
“Short version: We hired DJ Aeron from Bouquet sound to DJ/MC our wedding reception this May in Santa Barbara. I could not recommend Bouquet Sound or DJ Aeron in particular more highly. Bouquet Sound was fantastic to work with: transparent, quick to respond, flexible, and very reasonably priced. No notes, great experience. DJ Aeron is just next level. He was a blast to work with and a master of his craft. Once we spent about 45 minutes chatting about our shared music (and video game) taste on our intro call, we knew we'd found the right DJ for us. Aeron's MCing style exudes calm and command -- he's an expert and letting people know what's happening and where they need to be while keeping the mood light without putting the spotlight on himself. Aeron is also just an exceptional DJ, full stop. We shared a Spotify playlist with him a few weeks before the wedding to help him understand our general musical vibe, and he crushed it all afternoon and evening. Aeron read the vibes of the room perfectly, nailed my wife and I's musical vibe, and had some absolutely diabolical cuts and transitions. Aeron is just an incredible DJ and so fun to work with. This is far and away one of the easiest and best hires of our wedding.”

“We were thrilled to have Eli as our wedding photographer! His relaxed manner and constant smile made the whole experience enjoyable. Eli has a wonderful ability to focus on capturing natural interactions, steering clear of overly cheesy poses, which was exactly what we were looking for. Our wedding ceremony took place at the Santa Barbara courthouse, and with 60 of our closest friends and family in attendance, Eli documented the intimate atmosphere. One of the highlights of our experience was when he surprised me by showing up at my hair appointment unannounced. It was such a thoughtful gesture, and he managed to capture special moments with my family that I will cherish forever. His willingness to go above and beyond throughout the entire day truly impressed us! Eli's photography style is modern and simple, featuring clean lines and natural colors that beautifully reflect the essence of our wedding day. He even brought along a second photographer for the ceremony, which was fantastic! This ensured that every precious moment was documented from multiple angles, and we are so glad he did. We can’t wait to plan our next party so that Eli can be there to capture every special moment again. If you're looking for a dedicated and talented photographer who is genuinely passionate about his craft, we wholeheartedly recommend Eli! Thank you for making our wedding day so memorable!”

“I had a very clear feeling and vision for our wedding from the beginning: romantic and ethereal, but relaxed, effortless, and incredibly fun…something that felt completely at home in Santa Ynez and completely like us. Courtney was the person who made that vision possible. I had lots of ideas and was admittedly pretty particular about the things that mattered to me, while also being very “anti-bride” about a lot of traditional wedding expectations. Courtney was incredible at understanding what I cared about, translating my ideas into an actual plan, and then managing all of the details required to bring it together. What really set her apart was how she handled the moments when something didn’t go according to the original plan. She could pivot without making it feel like we were compromising the vision. She always seemed to have another idea, another approach, or a way to make something work, and that made the entire process feel so much less stressful. Then on our wedding day, I could just enjoy it. I trusted Courtney completely, and seeing everything come together after months of planning was one of the best feelings. It was exactly what we wanted: romantic, ethereal, relaxed, personal, and SO much fun. She brought the vision to life while making sure we actually got to enjoy it, and I’m forever grateful we had her there.”

“Working with Fairytale Hair and Makeup was such a relief. Lily showed up on time, stayed organized, and treated us with genuine kindness throughout the whole process. She did hair and makeup for me and three bridesmaids, and honestly, we all felt beautiful and confident walking down the aisle.

“From the moment we booked The Gardens at Los Robles Greens almost two years ago, their communication was always prompt and informative. Leading up to the wedding, they answered all my emails promptly and always made me excited for my wedding. The venue provided a day for all couples getting married in the next 4-6 months to taste the delicious food options and see the elegant rental displays, which made it easy for us to envision our perfect day. We were getting married in May so our "tasting day" was in the November before. A month before the wedding, we met with the director to finalize the floor plan for our ceremony and reception, and they handled all the setup so everything looked electric, clean, and beautiful. The one challenge I had as a bride was their rule about not having a place to refrigerate the cake prior to it being set out during the wedding, but our baker was able to deliver it at the right time so that it stayed fresh during the evening. The Gardens at Los Robles Greens truly made our special day incredibly easy and stress-free. We are so grateful for their excellent service and stunning venue.”

“We don’t even know where to start when it comes to Brett and his team! Brett was referred to us by family friends and we could not be more happy with our experience. First of all, Brett was incredible about listening to exactly what we wanted out of our photos for our big day. We met up and Brett took all the time in the world to show his incredible work and listen to us on all of our hopes for our photos. When the big day finally came out experience even got better. Brett and his team were early and incredibly kind. The two gentlemen that he brought were incredibly sweet and very talented. Even with a team of three, Brett still managed to run the show and make sure that our dream photos were being captured. Brett has an eye for photography and you can see that in every photo! Every time we go through our album we see yet another photo that means the world to us! Brett truly captured our wedding perfectly and we couldn’t be more thankful! Thank you, Brett! Now we can relive our wedding at anytime because of your work! You’re the best!”
