“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!”

“As someone who doesn’t get professional makeup done very often, it’s usually a little hard for me to feel comfortable with it. But she made the entire experience amazing. I was in California for an event (I traveled from New Jersey), and she took every detail into consideration even how the weather was affecting my skin and hair. The makeup looked perfect. The shade match was spot on. Ididn’t look lighter or darker, just like myself but enhanced. She was professional, punctual, and very kind. You can truly tell she knows exactly what she’s doing. I absolutely loved her work and would highly recommend her.”

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.

“After the Tone Guest Book provided an exceptional experience for our wedding day. Their communication was timely, friendly, enthusiastic, and incredibly helpful throughout the planning process. The quality of their work was clear, professional, and quick - we were thrilled with the final product. After The Tone allowed us to cherish the voices and memories from our special day in a way that photos or written cards simply could not. We had such an amazing experience all around and are so impressed with the quality of the recordings we captured. We would 1000% recommend After The Tone to any couple on their wedding day. Being able to hear the emotion in our loved ones' voices is something photos or cards simply can't replicate. We've loved listening back to the messages from our friends and family, and know they'll only become more meaningful with time. We're so grateful we chose to include this unique memento of our wedding day!”

“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.”

Awarded Best of Zola
“We got married in October in the OC, and hiring the Joyfully team to help us plan our wedding was one of the best decisions we made! We went with the full-service package as my partner and I both work pretty demanding jobs. In hindsight, we are so glad we opted for the full-service package because doing so saved us so much time and stress. There is still so much you have to do and deal with during wedding planning so it was great to know that we had a team behind us taking care of things and keeping us on track. Blaire was our main planner, and we also worked with Hannah and Sharon along the way. All 3 ladies are so kind, knowledgeable, and overall just a pleasure to work with! With the full-service package, the team connected us with the most amazing vendors at varying price levels, which we appreciated. This saved us SO much time of having to do our own research. We also really appreciated the honest advice they gave us in terms of where to spend vs. where to save. This is the kind of insight that we would've never had on our own and was so valuable to receive from an experienced wedding planner. There were also a few times where Blaire stepped in and advocated on our behalf with some of our vendors which resulted in less stress for us and more money saved. They also worked with us to execute the vision we had in terms of design and aesthetics. Even though we had a few changes of heart with some design elements along the way, the team didn't flinch and gladly adjusted things for us. Joyfully also offers their own rental items (discount included with the full-service package), and renting most of our decor items through them also saved us a lot of time and money (can you sense a theme here?!). Fast forward to our wedding day, everything looked so beautiful and the evening went so smoothly. It was truly the happiest day of our lives! We had always heard horror stories of things going wrong on your wedding day, but for us, none of that happened & if it did, we didn't even know because Blaire and her team took care of it for us. We got so many genuine compliments from our guests about how much they enjoyed our wedding and a lot of that was because of the thoughtful planning efforts of Joyfully Co.! We are truly so grateful for the Joyfully Co. team and wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone searching for a wedding planner!”

Awarded Best of Zola
“When I started planning my 40th birthday party, I couldn't decide between a band or a DJ. Each one I was looking at was just not the vibe and I was starting to get discouraged. Then, a friend of mine posted a story at a party where Tyler was DJing/playing the sax, and right away I knew he was the missing piece. I've attended parties with a sax player before, but NEVER like this and never one who does BOTH the DJing AND the sax! From the moment I reached out, Tyler was incredible. He followed up quickly and was great with all communications - we hopped on a call and to go over my theme and ideas, and he was so receptive and amazing with adding in things to help take my existing ideas to the next level. He even helped with the floor plan suggestions to help ensure my goal of "everyone being on the dance floor with me all night" would be more achievable - and omg am I glad I listened. Additionally, he suggested extending the party 1 hour, and thankfully we did because my initial timing guess was way off. Bottom line - trust him, HE KNOWS HIS STUFF. At the same time, he was never pushy and I never felt like I HAD to go with his ideas, but again, so glad I did. On the night of the party, from start to finish Tyler and his team were flawless. He made sure to play all of my "must play" songs, and read the vibes of the room perfectly - I've truly never seen some of my guests dance this much EVER. The amount of people who came up to me that night and have texted and called me since to tell me how epic Tyler and his team were is not surprising in the least. Multiple guests described it as the "best party they've ever been to" and said they "haven't danced that much since college" (and let's just say, it's been at least 15-20 years since then for all of us). One of my friends even booked him on the spot for her upcoming birthday! I could truly go on and on, but I will just end with this - DON'T THINK TWICE, DON'T BOTHER LOOKING ELSEWHERE, BOOK TYLER. You will NOT regret it! Thanks Tyler and team for the most epic night of my life!!! (also, I wish I could upload videos here because photos don't do any justice!!!)”

Awarded Best of Zola
“Summary/TLDR:  We had a big wedding with a lot of complex personal decor set up and Kimberly and Travis went above and beyond! Lessen your stress and book her! Full review: My now husband and I had a big wedding at the Disneyland Hotel, and Disney does not handle any personal floral or decor, so we knew we would need help!  We hired Kimberly for her full day of coordination service for things not provided by Disney, and it was one of the best decisions we made.  When I first reached out, she responded quickly to let me know of her services and to set up a call. I was already pretty set on hiring her from the reviews I'd seen, but the call was also extremely helpful! After hearing about our details, she recommended a DJ for us to request from Disney, who was absolutely perfect for our wedding! In the weeks leading up to the wedding, Kimberly checked in to see how I was doing and if I needed help with anything, even though I had only hired her for the day of coordination, which was so kind and thoughtful!  We had a large wedding with over 250 guests, and our bridal party was huge as well, so there were a lot of moving parts.  I was pretty frantic the morning of our wedding as I had overslept with so much left to do. Kimberly was so helpful with everything - and really helped reduce and lessen my stress, which as anyone getting married would know, is priceless! Kimberly and her husband handled all of our personal items so well! Several of which had to be set up multiple times (e.g for the ceremony and then for cocktail hour or for cocktail hour and for the reception). We had multiple guestbooks, some of which had multiple parts, multiple card boxes, favors for each family that had to be set up alphabetically (150 bags), a huge memorial table full of pictures that I wanted set up in a very specific way, reserved row signs, a welcome sign, Filipino shawls for the wedding godmothers, custom bar signs, Venmo signs for the money dance etc. We also enlisted their help last minute to help guide people to their table for the reception because of the way our seating chart was set up. Some cousins were supposed to help with that but got caught up in the moment and forgot! But Kimberly and Travis handled it themselves and made sure everything went smoothly! At the end of the night, she and Travis made sure to pack up all of our personal items and bring them back to our getting ready room.  Kimberly and Travis also worked seamlessly with the Disney staff and other vendors! After the reception ended, I realized I had lost track of my Disney bouquet, to which I had attached irreplaceable sentimental items, and Kimberly, who was on her way home, texted our Disney day of coordinator to help us find it in the nick of time!!  If Kimberly was this fantastic with just day of service, I can't even imagine how incredible she is with full planning. I absolutely recommend her to anyone and everyone! Brides and grooms - do yourself a favor and hire Her!”

“We came across A Colored Mind when we were in the process of interviewing several other videographers. Herbert’s expert videography technique, tasteful cinematic style, and responsiveness really impressed us and we decided to book him right away. We had no doubt he will deliver exactly what we love and he absolutely went above and beyond. First and foremost, the super premium quality of his work. Upon watching the initial version of our highlight, we felt he must’ve read our mind the whole time and made the perfect movie for us. The video was so artistic and thoughtfully created, it definitely brought our big day to the next level! Getting all the raw footage was another great decision we made. Since Herbert had multiple shooting angles setting up, we got to see the celebration in a complete view and it was super fun watching it! Second, professionalism. Herbert lives about 100 miles away from our venue in Malibu and the traffic could be a nightmare. However, on the day-of, he arrived nearly an hour before the shooting start time and used the extra hour to get the stunning drone footages of Hwy1 and our venue details to be used for wedding highlight. Lastly, communication with Herbert was very efficient from start to end. Even after the wedding and after the delivery of all the work, he was still actively responding to all our requests. We strongly recommend Herbert to every couple who love cinematic&artistic videos for the most important day in their life!!”

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.

“Serenity & her team are INCREDIBLE! From the start, she shared so much excitement for our wedding day and was available to answer any questions that we had, even when it was months prior to our wedding day. Her communication is amazing — we could always rely on her to get back to us quickly and help with anything that came up. Meeting her in person, she is just as warm as she is over email/video call. During our wedding rehearsal, she went over every single little detail on what to expect and to make sure everyone was on the same page — it was amazing and she made everyone feel so prepared. On our wedding day, we truly felt so at ease because we knew we had Serenity supporting us. Everything was exactly how we envisioned it, it was the wedding of our dreams! Our wedding party and families have also told us that they thought she was incredible and did such an amazing job at making sure everything flowed smoothly on the day of. We could not recommend Serenity enough!!!”

Seps' Saxophone Experience

"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! Having a live saxophone player at our wedding was one of the best decisions we made—and Tyler was the perfect choice. From start to finish, he brought so much energy, soul, and fun to the party. He knew exactly when to step in with the music to elevate the vibe, and when to let the moment breathe—never too much, never too little. His timing and feel were spot-on. Funny enough, we actually went to the same college—what are the chances? Such a small world, and it made the connection even more special. Super talented, very professional, and just an all-around great presence to have on the day. Our guests are still talking about how cool it was that we had the sax! Highly, highly recommend Tyler!”

“We can't say enough good things about Rose Event Company! Planning a wedding is never easy, but doing it in just 4 months, from across the country, and in a remote area with limited vendors seemed impossible—until we found Ashley. She took our vision of an intimate elopement with our closest family and friends, and turned it into the weekend of our dreams, managing every detail with perfection and making the entire process stress-free. From the moment we first spoke, I knew that Ashley was everything I was looking for. She is professional, organized, and full of creative ideas. Despite the challenges of our location, she found the perfect vendors to bring our vision to life. She understood our style and preferences right away and worked tirelessly to ensure everything was just as we envisioned. Even with the distance, Ashley was always available, responsive, and kept us updated every step of the way. She organized all the activities for our wedding weekend, including putting together our guest welcome bags. The entire weekend was a like a dream. Every single detail was meticulously executed, and we received so many compliments from our guests about how beautiful and seamless everything was. We truly couldn't have asked for a better experience. If you're looking for someone who is not only incredibly talented but also kind, patient, and genuinely invested in making your day perfect, look no further than Ashley. She made what could have been a stressful and overwhelming process into something fun and memorable. Thank you, Ashley for making our dream wedding a reality!”

“We got married in March of 2024 at the Ebell Club of Santa Ana. We’re so lucky that someone as thoughtful and organized as Claudia was our wedding coordinator. As a husband/wife duo who manage the execution of films and commercials for a living, we had high expectations for the coordinator of our own wedding. We’re glad to say that Claudia did not disappoint us once in the 9 months that we worked together! (Honestly, we were impressed since Day 1, when she shared with us that her past profession was in the Quality Assurance field.) Claudia was detail-oriented, punctual, and communicative the entire time. For a "day-of" wedding coordinator, she absolutely went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable wedding. We are so grateful to her and can’t recommend her enough for anyone who’s looking.”
