Our experience with The Stonehurst was fantastic from start to finish. The communication with Nancy, the owner, was seamless and she was so accommodating throughout the planning process. The venue itself is stunning, with different unique spaces to work with that really allowed us to customize our wedding exactly how we wanted. Nancy was so friendly and helpful. Since we got married in October 2021, they've done some additional work to make the space even more beautiful.

Eveni Floral Design 

5.0

  • Florist
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Veterans Administration, CA

Hi, I’m Zoey. I founded Eveni based on my love for all beautiful things. I seek to design the perfectly imperfect, creating unusual yet subtle designs that reflect nature with an undiscovered beauty that is effortless and refined. It is the marriage of these two cultures which gives the work such meaning, combining beauty with balance. I love the way floristry allows me to unleash my inner artist. Putting together displays of seasonal colour and texture is at once fiercely creative and immeasurably soothing, and being able to create wedding flowers that play a part in people’s happiest memories makes it all the more rewarding.

Awarded Best of Zola
Eveni Floral Design was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, their communication was fast, effective and professional. They were very responsive to our needs and flexible in accommodating what we expected and wanted for our special day. The venue we chose was already beautiful, but Eveni's floral arrangements and decor took it to another level. The flowers they chose were carefully picked and absolutely stunning - very modern and elegant. I have nothing but the highest compliments for Eveni Floral Design, and I will definitely be recommending them to all my friends and family for their weddings and events.

The Narrative Weddings (Photo + Video)

  • Photographer

  • Starts at $6,000
  • Serves Veterans Administration, CA

I'm Jarrod. I'm a wedding photographer based in the US. Originally from Florida and now traveling full-time in a Sprinter van shooting love stories. ​I like to describe my approach to wedding photography as documentary with an editorial flare. About 80% of the day I am capturing your day as it naturally unfolds in a beautiful way. The other 20% I love to prompt you or direct you to create romantic images that have intention and FEELING. Sometimes portraits will feel romantic and editorial and other times they will feel playful and fun. It fully depends on your personal relationship. I love to tell your story as authentically as I can.

Awarded Best of Zola
People often debate what's most important for a wedding: is it the venue, the food, the flowers... ?  It's the memories, and putting them in the hands of artists who can show you the heart and soul and feel of every moment - moments you can't plan for, you can never adequately take in, and many you would simply miss. Jarrod and Taylor are certainly technically gifted photographers and videographers, but more importantly they are artists whose true love is capturing yours.  The name says it all: The Narrative. My bride Ali and I will be forever grateful that we found and convinced them to tell our story.  I could imagine a thousands different weddings, but none without them by our side. Thank you, Jarrod and Taylor, you beautiful humans, for your truly awesome and unbelievable care, vision, and talents.  You've given us more than we could have ever imagined or even hoped for, through your perfect lens. With love and a lifetime of gratitude, Mike & Ali

It took me a little while to finally sit down and share my experience, but it’s something I knew I had to do. I got married in August 2024, and when it came to choosing someone to handle the makeup for my special day, Annaliza was my top choice. Her attention to detail is impeccable, and she is truly a perfectionist. Every brush stroke seemed carefully considered, and her work made me feel stunning and confident. The results were beyond my expectations, and I’m certain the wedding photos will do her artistry justice. If you're looking for someone you can trust with your look on such an important occasion, I wholeheartedly recommend Annaliza.

Indigo West 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,900
  • Serves Veterans Administration, CA

I took up photography at the ripe age of 11 with a Polaroid I borrowed from an aunt. It quickly became my sketchbook as I worked to capture stills of the world and people around me. Those images have continued to pay emotional dividends throughout my life, helping me better understand what I have now come to see through a new scope. They are grounding, melancholic, funny and beautiful. Some of my most cherished possessions.

Choosing Daniel from Indigo West as our wedding photographer was hands down one of the best decisions we made. From our first conversation, we loved his calm, thoughtful demeanor and his organic, artistic approach to capturing the day. His eye for composition and detail is exceptional and the photos truly tell a story. As a same-sex couple, we wanted someone who could move beyond traditional wedding clichés, capture the grandeur of our museum venue (complete with dinosaur skeletons) while making it feel intimate, and handle dark, dramatic spaces. Daniel did all of that and more. He captured the energy, emotion, laughter, and joy of the day beautifully. Daniel was efficient but never rushed. He was professional yet playful, and it felt like he immediately understood our dynamic as a couple and with our guests. We trusted his vision completely, and it absolutely shows in the photos. Most importantly, Daniel brought such a fun, relaxed energy—it never felt like he was just doing a job. We can’t recommend him enough.

Mountain Meadows caught our eye as we loved the pictures that were featured. I looked at their pricing that was available through The Knot and saw that they had very reasonable prices compared to other venues. We decided to book a tour with Gaby, and she was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions that we had. She acted very professional and didn’t hesitate to offer her help. We ended up booking that same day because they had a few booking specials. We picked, a free additional hour of event time, 500 off ceremony site fee, and a free upgrade from classic to premium bar. In addition, we really liked that brands like Jameson, Hennessey, and Patron were in their premium bar package. I know a lot of venues would charge more and would even see these brands on “top shelf” menus. Throughout the whole process, Gaby was very responsive, even though since she was busy with other weddings. She would always make sure to reply on the same day but no later than the next day.  The look of the venue wasn’t too fabulous, but good enough for us. I was a little nervous about the food as I have seen mixed reviews stating that the food is good or that the food is bland. I also been to a Wedgewood wedding early last year with a similar menu and the food was average at best. The Wedgewood Wedding also had prime rib carving which was really dry, tough and well done. However, most of the food at Mountain Meadows was very surprisingly tasty. I could probably pass on the rice, but the scalloped potatoes and mac and cheese were both good. The salmon was okay to me, but I heard from a few guests that they went back for seconds. The prime rib at Mountain Meadows was probably my favorite as it was properly cooked and well-seasoned, which relieved me as I was paying extra for this feature. I know that the short ribs are really good too as we tried this during our tasting, but we did not pay extra for this since we already opted for the prime rib. Mountain Meadows also had great recommendations for vendors as well. The florist that we picked (Tutta Bella) really nailed it with the spiral centerpieces. Everyone loved SomeCrust (bakery) since their cake was very moist and not too overly sweet. The photo booth that we picked also (LX Pix) also had GREAT quality pictures (which I will be posting). Mountain Meadows also allowed outside vendors to come in also and did not require proof of insurance. I know that there are a lot of venues that are very strict and only allow their own services/vendors. We were able to hire an ice cream cart and a late night Kogi Truck to serve tacos. The only con I would say is that we ended up overestimating our guest count early in the process and didn’t adjust until right before the deadline. We ended up making payments for a little over our actual guest count and they mentioned they had to go through an approval process to refund us the extra expenses. My advice is if you would like to book, make sure to give an accurate guest count, or give a lower guest count. That way, you can pay the venue the difference versus going through the approval process. Or if you have a better idea of your guest count, make sure to adjust before you submit the remaining payments. Overall, it was a great experience. The service on the day of the wedding was fantastic. They saved my husband and I hors d’oeuvres as we were taking pictures during cocktail hour. The hors d’oeuvres were delicious and they did not skimp on the portion sizes as well

Where do I begin?!! The Portofino Hotel & Marina was INCREDIBLE!!!!!! From day one all the way to today, a few days after the wedding, all the staff we encountered has been excellent!! Specifically I want to give a shout out to Sierra, Rain, Luis, Paco, & Mac. Sierra was my main hotel wedding coordinator and contact. She was so responsive, attentive, organized, sweet, available, and amazing!! I couldn’t be happier with her and her services. The entire experience was seamless. We planned an entire wedding in under 2 months together as I was eager to marry my man this year. She was so helpful and explained any and all things when I had questions. Starting with booking the venue all the way to the day after the wedding. Everything was so organized, including the deadlines of decisions I needed to make, and payment info, and what to do if it rained. She had everything covered. THANK YOU THANK YOU SIERRA!! Rain was also another venue coordinator & catering sales manager who helped us too and he was amazing as well. He stepped in when/if Sierra was out of the office and he attended our tasting and answered so many questions as well. He was so nice, sweet and great to work with. Very organized and never missed a beat! Thank you Rain!! Luis, the director of Banquets, handled anything food and drink related and everything was perfect. He even placed two of each hors d’oeuvres at our sweetheart table (knowing we probably wouldn’t get a chance to eat them during cocktail hour as we were busy mingling) and he was right!! It was such a sweet, simple gesture that made a big impression on us. Paco was one of the Bartenders from the day of (I never got a chance to meet our other bartender) and he was so fun and cheerful and positive and an overall great spirit. Guests kept telling me how much they loved Paco and me too! Mac worked on the hotel side and we met him when we checked in and he handled ALL our luggage and he also golf carted me around on the actual wedding day so I didn’t have to walk too much. He was super sweet and was so helpful and had a great vibe! Also, my initial point of contact was Melanie who responded to my initial venue request. She was so great and helpful and responsive that right away we were sold and we booked the venue the next day without ever even seeing it in person. On top of all the AMAZING staff, the venue is just absolutely beautiful!! You can’t find a prettier ocean front venue in the So Cal. Just gorgeous. We chose a type of all-inclusive wedding package that included a sit down 3-course dinner, open bar, ceremony, hotel room, wedding cake, and many more perks such as white linen, candles on each table, arch on the ceremony grass, champagne toast, etc. It was perfect, efficient, organized and made my life so easy. I really didn’t have to do much except invite guests and show up!! many of my guests told me afterward they were so impressed with the staff, venue and the food!!! Seriously, the food was excellent. I know all of this sounds too good to be true but honestly it was. I had zero problems, no horror stories, nothing. It truly was a PERFECT day and overall experience. I also found out afterward that a coworker of mine got married here too this past summer and she said the same thing. Her day was perfect as well and I am not surprised at all. Thank you to everyone at the Portofino! We cant wait to come back just to enjoy the restaurant, the views and the excellent service :)

Awarded Best of Zola
Discovery & Initial Communication I learned about Gui’s services through word of mouth. A friend highly recommended him after hiring him for her son’s birthday party. Based on her glowing review, I decided to hire him for my very intimate civil ceremony. My main goal was to have the event beautifully documented so we could share the final video with family and close friends. From the very start, communication with Gui was seamless. He was responsive, efficient, and incredibly patient when addressing my detailed inquiries. One aspect I truly appreciated was his initiative to schedule a pre-event video call. This gave him the opportunity to get to know us, understand our personalities, and discuss our expectations for the shoot. His willingness to listen and incorporate our ideas made the entire process feel collaborative and personal. Planning & Preparation One of the reasons I chose Gui was his ability to include a highlight reel in the video package—something I really wanted. During our meeting, he welcomed my ideas and suggestions for the final video, showing a genuine interest in delivering a product that reflected our vision. Gui’s level of preparation was impressive. He took the time to scout the courthouse and a nearby park beforehand, ensuring we had the best possible locations for our shoot. His preparedness and attention to detail gave me peace of mind leading up to the event. The Day of the Ceremony On the day of our civil ceremony, everything went smoothly. Gui greeted us warmly at the courthouse, immediately setting a positive and reassuring tone. His calm and easygoing demeanor helped ease my nerves—something I truly appreciated amidst the mix of adrenaline and excitement of the day. He captured moments effortlessly, allowing us to be present and enjoy our special day without feeling overly directed or staged. Final Thoughts & Recommendation Overall, I couldn’t be happier with Gui’s work. His professionalism, creativity, and dedication to capturing our special day exceeded my expectations. If you’re looking for a videographer who is not only talented but also personable and well-prepared, I highly recommend Gui. 10/10 – Would definitely hire him again!

Another Dream Wedding Photo & Video was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding photography. Their communication style is quick, thorough and professional - they responded to emails incredibly fast and were very detailed in answering all of our questions. The quality of their work is nothing short of dreamy, beautiful and amazing - the photos captured all of the special moments from our wedding day in a natural, artistic way that truly tells the story. They have an ability to capture genuine emotions and moments without ever feeling intrusive. Their rates are very fairly priced for the incredible quality of their artistic photography and videography. We could not recommend Another Dream more highly for wedding photography and videography - they are true professionals who deliver beautiful work that we will treasure forever.

La Venta was a wonderful venue for our October wedding. They handled so many of the complicated parts of our event, the price was very reasonable, the food was delicious, and of course the venue itself was stunning. La Venta even helped us find our amazing planner, Helen Vonghack (@eighteenplacecards), and our whole event went off without a hitch. Photos attached by our amazing wedding photographer, @zoomtheory

I can't recommend Julie and Sarah from Emily Lynn & Co. highly enough! They made me and the bridal party feel like our most gorgeous selves, while still feeling comfortable and never overdone. We all got so many compliments on our hair and makeup and look great in the photos too. Julie did an amazing job working with my natural curls to make my hair feel special but still like me.

YOOSHI SUSHI CATERING & EVENT PRODUCTION

  • Caterer
  • Serves Veterans Administration, CA

I had my first shot at managing a sushi restaurant when I took over an empty section of the family restaurant and introduced sushi to my customers. It was a challenge that I will never regret accepting. It was fun, a lot of fun! I had the opportunity to work with some really talented and creative chefs. I quickly learned that it’s not just about having fresh fish anymore. Sushi dining has transformed into a culture. A culture built by imagination and creativity. With the help of GD and the support of my family, I took all that experience and fused it with my imagination and created Yooshi Sushi Catering and Event Production.

Awarded Best of Zola
Yooshi Sushi were a great choice for a sushi bar for our wedding. The display was stunning and we received compliments about how good the sushi was throughout the night and weeks following the wedding. It's been 3 weeks and we still have guests talking about how good the food was. The price breakdown on their website makes planning easy and the owner, Farzad was very kind and made the process easy. Big plus that they are certified Kosher, which took care of providing food for our Kosher observant guests. Highly recommend, you will not be disappointed.

  • Beauty professional

As a licensed Cosmetologist I started working in the fashion industry applying makeup and hair for models as well as working back stage on runways for a wedding gown company. I worked with various professional photographers and fell into the wedding industry by helping with friends weddings. In 2011 I started as a freelance makeup and hair artist in college as a weekend job, then grew my business into a full time job. In 2013 I went to Cosmetology school to receive my cosmetology license. I love everything beauty oriented and enjoy being able to work in an industry that makes people feel and look beautiful.

Awarded Best of Zola
I had the best experience with Sharon! I discovered her on Instagram and was immediately impressed by her work. She was flexible, accommodating, friendly, and incredibly professional! During the hair and makeup trial, I showed her some inspiration photos, and she was able to replicate the look perfectly on me. It just so happened that the trial was on the same day my husband and I went to the courthouse to sign our marriage license, so I was thrilled to look my best! On the wedding day, Sharon did hair and makeup for the mothers of the bride and groom, my husband, and me. My hair and makeup looked flawless and stayed in place all night long—I didn't even need the emergency makeup kit she left me with. Sharon is amazing! You absolutely need to book her for your wedding or engagement shoots!

I had a very unique style wedding and most of it I tried to do DIY. In a nutshell, it became extremely overwhelming for me, so I asked my planner Rebecca to assist. Her and the owner were so kind enough to make my original package of Day of Planning, to Full planning at a discount! Saved my whole wedding day. I cried a few days before my wedding because remembering all the months prior, they were there for me every step of the way. And on the day, everyone kept asking me, Is your planner a friend of yours? I honestly told them, 100% yes. :) Because I feel like we now are friends. Such a family orientated company. I highly recommend.
