We cannot recommend Laura and Nicole enough!…read more They went above and beyond coordinating for our wedding. Our venue burned down around 5 months before our wedding, and Laura and Nicole helped support us every step of the way until we eventually found another venue. They not only are so good at their jobs (knowledgable, experienced, detail-oriented) but they are also so warm and easy to get along with. On the day of the wedding, they were busy making things smooth from morning until after midnight, and were sure to make our day magical. We ended up having the most beautiful wedding, and we could not have pulled it off without their guidance and expertise. Thank you so much!

I have multiple friends who have had Sharon as their event planner and those friends would continuously talk about how amazing Sharon is (even after all these years) I am the world's pickiest person in EVERYTHING. I drive my family, friends and husband crazy from how precise I need things to be. The fact that I fell in love with Sharon's attentiveness, detail and efficiency is absolutely foreign to me. It takes a lot for me to be impressed and I was blown out of the waters by her work. She took care of everything and didn't allow me to lift a finger. I said this to her before and I truly mean it, my day would have fallen short from perfection without her. Thank you for everything you've done for me Sharon!

Helen is responsive to emails and phone calls from beginning to end. She has her own staff and a top notch assistant, Chad. We combed through quite a few other planners and ultimately decided on Helen and Eighteen Place Cards. We too read the reviews and were not too sure how legitimate all of the 5 star ratings were, so we really gave Helen the 3rd degree, 10 months before the wedding date. Specifics: Helen checked in with us regarding every single detail from the venue [The Noor], ALL of our vendors, and remained on top of it all every step of the way. She was constantly going the extra mile at every turn and never once did she drop the ball, or fail at any of the tasks! We were demanding and we put a lot on her shoulders, but she proved to us she knew her job and performed extremely well. Helen and her team always responded with a 'can do attitude', while maintaining a professional demeanor. To say that we are grateful to have done business with Helen, would be a complete understatement. She and Chad are dedicated to getting the job done, no matter what. Everything came together perfectly as a result of her planning, execution and commitment. My daughter's wedding day was a total success because of Helen, Eighteen Place Cards, Chad and the rest of her staff. The proof is in the pudding. All of our guests commented on how nice everything was and how much fun they had. I know for a fact this was a direct result of Helen's passion and dedication to her profession. To sum it all up, I will most definitely utilize Helen for future events. She is worth every dollar we spent, and more. My entire family thanks you very kindly Helen. Respectfully, Ralph G.

My wife and I just wrapped our wedding with Heather and don't have enough words to express our…read moregratitude and how much we would recommend Heather to others! We met her at an open house for the LA River Center and our wedding was planned for April 2020. Well, covid and the universe had other plans for us but Heather wouldn't let that stop her and delivered big, skillfully navigating the craziness of Covid cancellations, postponements and pivots. Throughout the planning phase, Heather helped us navigate vendor selection, review contracts and had tons of best & worst practices to share with us. Plus, when I threw out a random idea or wanted a specific late night taco truck, she did her damndest to make it happen. We basically had our entire wedding planned, then rebooked at the LA River Center for April 2021. Heather helped us get all of our vendors to cooperate and switch the date, and then when the April 2021 wedding was cancelled she got them all to honor our deposits for "a party to be determined at a future unknown date and location". That location ended up being our backyard, and man was it a good party. For having rentals, flowers, dj, caterer, porto potty, photo booth, liquor delivery and all kinds of people in and out of my house, Heather managed it incredibly well and it was no where near as stressful or complicated of a process as it sounds. Over the 2 years of knowing Heather and planning all different versions of our wedding she is a friendly and charming person to work with. It was a pleasure getting to know her and having her get to know us and our quirks to have a wedding that truly reflected us. And let me tell you, the day of a switch was flipped and she was in the freakin' zone! She was everywhere at once doing everything that needed to be done and things my wife and I wouldn't have dreamed of. She would pop up out of nowhere with a plate of hors d'oeuvres and a drinks for me and my wife and next second she'd be handling coordinating with the staff to break down tables to free up the dance floor. She's awesome, incredibly well priced and worth every damn penny and more!

From beginning to end Leslie was a delight to work with and we could not have done any of it without her, she truly delivered us the wedding of our dreams. Leslie came highly referred to us personally as she had already done two of our close friends' weddings so we knew her work was impeccable. It was only after working with her that I could truly appreciate her magic! I am slightly OCD and I thought I was organized but Leslie gave me something to aspire to! Her Google drive documents, prompt responses, and attention to detail is unrivaled. I had a pretty clear vision of how I wanted our wedding to look, aesthetic and color-wise but I had no idea where to start and definitely needed help bringing that vision to life with vendor recommendations and coordination. Leslie and her team were extremely professional, quick, creative, and made our day perfect. We got so many compliments on how beautiful everything was, how smoothly the day went, and how kind and amazing Leslie's team was. We got to enjoy our wedding day stress-free because of ENCORE and their hard work. They truly made us feel comfortable and secure during what can be a very stressful time. She is the BEST gift we could have given ourselves on our wedding day and we will recommend ENCORE again and again to anyone getting married! Leslie is just the very best and we love her!

I literally was stunned by the beautiful trees that were set up with falling flowers just wow!!! The food was delicious and the event was so luxurious not to mention every single staff member on her team was extremely sweet! Even the security guards were friendly. The entrance of the bride was angelic as they put a white light on her as she walked down the aisle. I thought that was so original and refreshingly new as I had never seen it done. There were over 600 people at this event and it didn't feel crowded at all. The location was perfect at the Beverly Hilton and I couldn't believe there were so many people as it felt so spacious. The DJ she hired played the best music I danced until my heels forced me to rest. I definitely recommend Mira if you are looking to throw an event I will never forget that night and wish to have an event of my own just like that one day!!!!
