Not only is Jesse so talented, he is also so kind and caring. Taking pictures can be so uncomfortable and he really put our nerves at ease and directed us in a way that resulted in epic photos. I would 100% recommend him. We also added on video services and I’m so glad we did. I cried within thirty seconds of watching the highlight video he made. It was so well done and something I will cherish forever. He also guided us on the timeline for our wedding so we would have the best lighting and that was really important as we had the time of sunset wrong and we had booked the ceremony at the wrong time. Because of Jesse’s expertise we were able to adjust everything in time before we sent out the invitations.

We had the absolute best experience having our wedding at Tijeras Creek from start to finish. Logan and Bryce were our points of contact and they made every piece of the planning process seamless. We opted not to have a day of coordinator and the way the Tijeras Creek team was there for us, felt like the same level of support. They had a ton of recommendations for vendors if we needed (we used the DJ they recommended and he was amazing!) The backdrop of the ceremony was picture perfect. They also had a bunch of recommendations for spots on the course to take our photos after the ceremony and gave us a golf carts to use with our photographer. The communication was always very thorough and quick to get back to me on the millions of questions I asked. They have a ton of options for food selection and style of service but we really had our heart set on Mexican food. We had been to Tijeras Creek for their Taco Tuesday so we asked if we could have that as an option. They were more than happy to accommodate and our guests RAVED about how good the food was! Everything about our wedding day was a 10/10. Thank you Tijeras Creek team!!!

DJ Solstice 
Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
Rancho Santa Margarita, CA
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,900

With many years of experience, our team of experts are trusted names in the wedding DJ business. Our DJs are great at reading the crowd & keeping the energy up on the dance floor with clean mixing and smooth transitions, while also knowing when to slow it down for those special moments or throw it back to some classics. Guests are blown away by the level of professionalism (and a good bit of fun) our team provides, with dedicated experts in lighting/sound design, photobooth, and MCing. With music catering to all generations, we excel in keeping the flow of the event and eliminating dead time, while PACKING that dance floor!

All the roses to this guy right here! My wife Rachael and I had our wedding at Aliso Viejo Wedgewood and DJ Solstice far exceeded my expectations and those of our guests! I spent excruciating days and hours combing the internet, listening to plenty of vlogs and samples from DJ after DJ, for anyone that can match the vibes my wife and I were seeking for our wedding and Matt absolutely delivered! He continued to work diligently with me as we worked through our vision for the wedding day and he was noting short of a consummate professional through the whole processes despite the obstacles, definitely worth every bit of time and budget we had set for him! Every single guest we had come up to us loved him from his transitions, to his control of the dance floor and vibes, and even his ability to MC was far above what we have experienced in other weddings! Not to mention all the lights, sounds, and CO2 cannons he brought out! Certainly at the grade and level he promised when we first met and more! We asked for an EDM Set and he gave us one way above anything we ever expected, and we've seen plenty! For a day we don't ever plan to replicate again in our lives, I'm glad my wife Rachael and I were able to share this day with Matt and his team and they have our highest recommendation we could give to anyone for ANY of your music genre needs! Matt, looking forward to seeing your future clips, gig logs, and your continued growth in the forseable future!

949 Studio met and exceeded my expectations for the wedding day! Our DJ Mike was considerate of our wants and met with us a few times before the wedding day to ensure everything was nailed down. He double-checked our chosen songs and made suggestions if he thought one of them wouldn't work. He really brought the party to the wedding day! Our MC Matt was top-notch. He made sure that he had everyone's names correct, that our timeline was on schedule, and was able to work on his feet when something didn't happen exactly in the timeline. He was professional and kind and brought the energy to the wedding day! This team was incredible and made our wedding a night we will never forget!! Pictures don't capture just how much fun we had! I can't recommend them enough!

Taylor Made Makeup was wonderful to work with for my wedding day. Their communication was prompt and direct, which I really appreciated as a busy bride. The quality of their work was excellent - they had a confident approach and the results were fantastic. Taylor accommodated my bridesmaids' last minute requests and showed up early to make sure we were all taken care of. She is kind, easy-going, and very confident in her abilities, which helped ease my nerves on such a big day. Taylor made me feel so beautiful, which is an amazing bonus on a nerve-wracking wedding day. I highly recommend Taylor Made Makeup for any bride looking for a skilled and professional beauty team.

After The Tone is on a mission to further human connection with the creation of the audio guest book. In 2020, we started the company after first introducing the idea at our own wedding. The service provides a vintage rotary phone for guests at any event to leave voicemails on. Then, the phone is shipped back to the company’s headquarters where the messages are transferred onto a digital file, USB, or vinyl record as a way to relive those special memories through the voices of loved ones.

The after the tone phone is such a unique and wonderful experience ! Our guests loved it and I feel so grateful to be able to hear the emotions and memories from the day in our guests’ voices! 10/10 would recommend for any special gathering!

  • Not wheelchair accessible

We hosted our wedding weekend at Casa Loma Beach Hotel recently, and it exceeded every expectation. With guests flying in from across the country and around the world, we heard nonstop praise about how cozy, elegant, and effortlessly chic the hotel felt (plus the cocktails and cookies were top notch). The staff was incredibly accommodating--helping with porterage, clear communication, and even a few lost-and-found rescues (thank you Amber!). Allene and Elisa were standout stars throughout the weekend helping us host several events at the hotel over three days - and stepping in to address curveballs from vendors and weather. When a once-in-a-blue-moon monsoon forced us to pivot from our planned rooftop events, the Casa Loma team handled the change with grace and creativity, preserving the overall vibe we envisioned. Guests-both locals and out-of-towners-couldn't stop raving about the views and the unbeatable location. Some spent time in the cute nooks and crannies throughout the hotel or relaxed on their balconies with those unmatched ocean views (when the rain finally let up), while others wandered over to Marine Room for late-night drinks thanks to the perfect location. And of course, the food via Sapphire was amazing! We were able to check off all our boxes when it came to cuisine and transport our guests to all ends of the earth with food from the Mediterranean, Malaysia, and South America. The Late Night Bites of sliders, fries and chicken tenders were crowd MVPs at our Afters. Thank you to the entire team for transforming a rained-out wedding weekend into the intimate, romantic wedding of our dreams.

What really stood out was how communicative Unju was throughout the whole process, which meant we never had to stress or second-guess anything. Our florals were absolutely stunning and looked even better in person than we imagined. We can't recommend Fleurs De Mad enough.

Joyfully Co

  • Planner
  • Offers 7 services
  • Starts at $10
  • Serves Rancho Santa Margarita, CA

Joyfully Co. was founded with the heart and mission to serve every bride and groom joyfully as they plan for the one of the biggest transitions of their life. With event design, styling, and coordination as our forte, we provide our services to make the planning process as smooth and painless as possible for our couples. Knowing that no couple is the same, we cater to each unique vision and inspiration that they have to conceptualize all the details in order to make their dream wedding a reality.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Joyfully Co was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the very beginning, they were an absolute pleasure to work with—thoughtful, professional, and genuinely invested in making our day perfect. I had already secured most of my vendors when I reached out to them, and instead of trying to upsell me, they kindly recommended a more tailored package that better fit my needs and budget. That level of honesty and care really set the tone for the rest of our experience. Every meeting with them was encouraging and reassuring—I felt completely safe and supported in their hands. Having been a bridesmaid in weddings that left me physically and emotionally drained, my biggest goal for my own wedding was to feel calm and stress-free. Thanks to Joyfully Co, I actually got to *enjoy* my wedding day—and everything came together beautifully. We received so many compliments, and best of all, my husband and I were able to leave by 9:30 p.m. while their team took care of all the cleanup. It was such a gift. One of the things I appreciated most was how seamlessly they coordinated with all my vendors—many of whom they had worked with before. I never once worried that someone wouldn't show up or that something would fall through the cracks. As a Korean American, I also want to highlight how thoughtful they were in understanding and incorporating cultural details. They kept everything on schedule and consistently communicated with the bridal party throughout the day, which made a huge difference. The planning tools they provided were lifesavers. Their premade spreadsheets included everything: seating charts, tipping guides, vendor contact lists, timelines, packing lists—you name it. During our planning meetings, they reviewed the timeline well in advance and brought a calm confidence that really helped put me at ease. We also opted for the design package, which was such a game changer. While I could have tried to handle decor myself, having someone bring the vision to life—and then take it all down afterward—saved me an incredible amount of time and energy. They say you should feel like the guest of honor at your own wedding, and that’s exactly how my husband and I felt. Even more importantly, our loved ones were also able to relax and enjoy the day without worrying about logistics. I’ll always be grateful for Joyfully Co and can’t recommend them enough to other brides. They are truly a gift, and I’m cheering them on always!

Raymond (Ray) was great! Very nice, on time and he definitely felt the vibe of the room and played music based on our guests. A lot of our guests were older (millennial and baby boomers). He played songs on our list and accepted request so that everyone could dance to music they like! Which was great!

Petra was amazing to work with and I cannot recommend her enough. Roughly a month before our wedding, we had decided we wanted to include a pianist for our ceremony and even with the little time we gave her, she was able to completely customize our ceremony with songs that are super important to us. She constantly provided us updates on music, and even before booking showed us examples of skills specifically with our song choices. Petra is extremely talented, and her addition to our ceremony made it 1000x more special. I cannot thank her enough for all of the time she put towards making our wedding day as perfect as it was!

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.

DJ Dom was one of my first vendors booked! I went to an open house at my venue and when he started playing millennial emo jams, I knew he was the one for me! Music is SO important to my husband and I, so we needed someone that understood the assignment!! He was so good that my dad even used him for his wedding AND (since i'm a wedding photographer myself) I ALWAYS refer him to all of my couples!!! He is so professional and was literally the best if not one of the top 3 vendors I had on my special day! PS being a good DJ is one thing, but being a good DJ AND MC is another. And Dj Dominiq is the master of both! 10/10 recommend.

Can't say enough positive things about our experience with Herbert from A Colored Mind. Picking the "right" photographer/videographer is definitely a personal decision and for us it came down to his creativity, professionalism, and understanding of our different cultures. We're kinda awkward and rarely take photos and videos of ourselves to share to others, let alone hire someone to do it. But he made the day so easy. He didn't get flustered or overwhelmed -- just a nice a balance which didn't ruin our ability to experience our day. I have dabbed in prosumer photography and videographer myself as a hobby, and let me tell you, he pays attentions to quality of the shot in terms of color/lighting/perspective. It's just beautiful. Very easy to work with in terms of edits. The shots are unreal. I encourage you to check out his web site and social media. Let his work speak for itself. Thank you Herbert for creating such an EPIC piece of our wedding day!

Looking at our pictures a year later, I'm so grateful for Jenny. I'm not left with a photo dump. Every picture is so good and hand curated. Its a collection, each picture chosen for a reason. Thank you Jenny!!

Our goal for your wedding day is simple: to capture all the genuine, heartfelt moments between you and your loved ones. At the same time, I’ll gently guide you to create stunning scenes where the light, scenery, and you shine perfectly. Capturing your guests’ experiences is the other half of the equation—almost as important as the two of you. When you look back at your gallery, you’ll relive all the amazing moments you might have missed. I’m all about creating timeless photos that will grace your parents’ mantel for the next 40 years. I want to help you preserve those memories and ensure they’re never forgotten.

Adam was an absolute dream to work with from start to finish. We did our engagement and family photos with him, and he immediately made all of us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. I never had to worry about how to pose, he guided me the entire time and made sure I looked my absolute best. We just received our wedding sneak peek photos, and we are completely in love with them. Every single person we’ve shared them with has commented on how beautiful they turned out. Adam is not only incredibly talented but also so easy and enjoyable to work with. I’m beyond grateful we found him on Zola and couldn’t recommend him more!

Hi! I’m Serenity — SoCal-based wedding planner, Day of Coordination pro, and unapologetic lover of crisp Diet Coke. I started out slinging appetizers as a banquet server and worked my way up through the wedding world, from intern to venue coordinator to full-blown planner. Now, I lead a team of professional knot tiers who live for the little details and smooth timelines. You bring the romance — we’ll bring the timelines, the tissues, and maybe a spare safety pin or two.

If you're reading reviews questioning on if you should hire Serenity, let this be your sign as a YES DO IT HIRE HER SHE IS AMAZING! There are so many words I could use to describe Serenity and her teams services they provide but I wouldn't have enough room, she is the kindest, sweetest, most detail oriented person we have met. We hired Serenity earlier this year to be the day of coordinator for our wedding and not only was her price fantastic but what she offers with her packages is even better. She was with us from the moment we put down the deposit. She answered every email we sent her within a day and was always so bright and full of light. She took over all communications with all vendors 2 weeks prior to our wedding to relieve some stress and it definitely did, on day of she stayed in communication with both of us and even when the bride was running a tad bit late she did everything in her power and got us back on schedule! She made the day so magical and got every request done and even more. She kept all the vendors in order and even our other vendors were calling us the following day say how great it was to work with her and she made it so easy for them too. We plan on using her again for any other event we need her for and will be recommending her to anyone and everyone. Thank you for everything you're amazing and we couldn't have asked for a better coordinator.

"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.

Tyler was absolutely incredible - one of the true highlights of our wedding! He was so easy to work with from start to finish and put so much thought into every song, creating beautiful instrumental versions of the pieces we requested. We had him play for the pre-ceremony, ceremony, cocktail hour, and grand entrances, and he absolutely nailed every moment. His communication was excellent - always quick to reply and genuinely went above and beyond for us throughout the entire process. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about him all day! I can’t imagine our wedding without him.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Love and Life Events for our wedding, and they did an incredible job! We got the Wedding Day Management Service (2-month countdown) package and it was the perfect amount of support. From start to finish, their team was professional, attentive, and truly dedicated to making our special day perfect. We worked directly with Chiell, Makayla, and Dalavy. They were so kind, patient, and genuinely cared about our vision and helped bring it to life. We personally did not use the provided Aisle Planner account to its fullest capability (Google Sheets ftw!), however it would have been a great tool since it has everything you need to keep organized, and more. The planning process was seamless, thanks to the team’s attention to detail and creative ideas. Every element, from the little decor decisions to the coordination of the event, was executed with precision and care. On the day of the wedding, the team was on top of everything, ensuring that everything ran smoothly. We were able to fully enjoy our day without worrying about any of the logistics. We owe it to Love and Life Events for making our “backyard” wedding a DREAM! We highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a wedding management service who will go above and beyond to make your day unforgettable. Thank you, Love and Life Events, for making our wedding day the best it could be :)
