My (now) husband and I were fortunate enough to work with the lovely, talented, insanely hard-working and detail-oriented staff of Elle A Events! They were invaluable to us from beginning to end. As everyone knows, a wedding entails so MANY details - so many of which you'd never think to think of; that's where Elle and Sydney helped so much. From rentals, to style, to vendor help to trouble shooting issues with our venue (and there were several) Elle A Events supported, listened and provided their expert and professional insight as well as their connections to ensure our wedding was executed seamlessly. Though the planning part was super valuable; we really couldn't have had our wedding without them running the entire day. They seriously did not sit still! They took our design pieces and preferences and executed them beautifully, creatively and beyond what we could have imagined. They made sure the events followed the schedule, moving us and our guests along in a timeless manner while still respecting the natural flow of the day. Elle and Sydney even took it upon themselves to clean up after our guests when the catering team disappeared without completing their job. No job was beyond their abilities and no job was beneath their willingness. All in all, Elle A Events gave us what every couple wishes for on their wedding day...no stress, no worry and absolute beauty. I would recommend them for any size, style or type of event; not only can they handle it -- they will execute it with grace, personal charm and absolute class! read more

I had the pleasure of working with Elle and Sydney for my neighbor's wedding recently. They were amazing....fun, friendly and highly organized. They knew when to jump in and handle logistics and when to pull back and let things flow organically. Planners are like the police.... don't want a planner in your face every 5 minutes but when you need them you expect them to be there fast and handle things smoothly. You'll be in good hands with Elle A Events! read more

My wife and I hired Elle to do day-of coordination of our wedding, and we were expecting to simply get someone who would make sure things ran smoothly. What we got was a creative, dynamic person who turned our wedding from a simple backyard dinner to a truly magical experience--all within our budget. From the beginning, Elle was focused on us: she heard what we were expecting of our wedding, what we dreamed our wedding could be, and the resources we had to work with. She made our wedding better in every way and never made us spend more than we were comfortable with. She is easy to talk to and to work with. I doubt anyone would have a hard time getting along with her on a professional or personal level, which means everything when dealing with a wedding, a time when both bride and groom are anxious, nervous and concerned with every detail. She was able to decorate our wedding so it looked like a high-budget production. Her taste in decor is impeccable. Given our limited budget, she put together table pieces, decorations and lighting for our backyard that truly transformed the space. She also helped coordinate the minutia of a wedding: how we would walk down the aisle, where to arrange our food, utensils, beverages, etc., and all sorts of other things I'm sure even I am not aware she handled for us. Basically, day of, all my wife and I had to do was show up to our own wedding and enjoy it! Finally, we have to mention her team, which absolutely shined on the day. They worked hard to put every last detail in place and, during our reception, they continued working hard to make sure things went smoothly. We had a better wedding than we could have imagined, and the best part was it was all done within our budget. She made our wedding look and feel like it cost twice as much as it did. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone who needs their event to go perfectly. read more

I hired the Elle A Events Team to help produce our yearly tech conference. The planning process leading up to the conference was just under a year. We had weekly 'check in' calls, they were always in constant communication with options and/or updates and easily accessible whenever we needed to get ahold of them. On site for the actual conference, they were on time, professionally dressed and always upbeat and positive with our clients and guests. The production was beautiful, the locations for off site events were the talk of the conference and they ensured every detail was handled and executed. Overall, a very impressive team and solid run business practices by them and all of their suggested vendors. Highly recommend this company and their team! read more

I was at an event a few weeks ago for a friends charity that was produced by this company. The party was beyond beautiful. There were quite a number of huge celebrities at the party but it was so very casual. Whatever they did to make these rockstars feel at home ultimately worked. I noticed a few business cards on the bar and grabbed one and will be calling Elle very soon for my Spring Gala. Not only was the event beautiful but the employees working the event were quite lovely and incredibly well mannered. The DJ... I believe it was DJ Splyce was wonderful. Realistically this is the company I would like to ultimately produce my next event. Cheers read more

I hired Elle A Events to host the grand opening of our new salon in Beverly Hills. From the moment I met Elle and her team, I was sure my event was going to be a successful one. In fact, it was beyond what I could have expected or imagined. The team made the planing process so effortless and really fun! I look forward to working with Elle and her team again, as they produced an amazing event that our clients still can not stop talking about! I highly recommend Elle A Events if you're in need of a event planner. This team will not let you down! read more

Since the owner Elle flagged my review because im not someone on here lying for her by posting a good review. She is a dishonest person, she steals from others just because she feel like she is entitled to it. She doesn't actually work, she puts everything on her assistant Meghan who's like a chicken with her head cut off. They do not actually know how to put on a successful event and I have seen it first hand. Extremely unprofessional. Seems like this company is a front for something else or something because the ability of these people to actually put on an event is slim to none. Untrustworthy, and just don't deliver anything close to what they promise. read more

Two reviews in one here. I had the pleasure to attend a launch party put together by ELLEAEVENTS. The food and decor was top notch. Elle and Sydney were charming hosts and made sure everybody was happy. They were. Also went to a private event that was produced by them over the Holidays and again, first class all the way and lots of fun! Kudos. read more

Wow, the team at Elle A Events is truly amazing! They are professional, great with people and brilliant when it comes to bringing a client's vision to life. I highly recommend Elle A for your next event. I have worked with Elle A Events now for several events they constantly raise the bar. Thanks, Ell for always being so amazing! read more

Elle A Events was awesome. I asked them to plan a 50th wedding anniversary (for my parents) and family reunion party, with catering, decorations, flowers, a musician, etc... and I was hands-off about it all (since I was in SF planning this event for LA.) They took point on everything, found great vendors, organized everything, and had great taste. The event was perfect and my parents were moved to tears. This is as good as it gets -- I'd absolutely work with them again and highly recommend them to anyone. read more

I used Elle A Events to help me plan a formal dinner and party for my sorority this fall. They were exceedingly helpful throughout the entire process - planning through execution! They were always available via phone, and email, and consistently checked in with me to make sure they were meeting all of my goals for the event and that I was pleased with what was planned. Both Elle, and my contact Sydney were present at the site visit and were always friendly and knowledgeable in person and remotely. They did a wonderful job of finding a really cool and fun space for the event, and were very accommodating of my budget's limits. I'd highly recommend them if you're looking to plan a fun, exciting and well planned event! read more

I worked with Sydney and the Elle A Events team at a wedding yesterday 7/1/17. They were very professional and created an elegant ceremony and reception on the beach in Malibu. You can see from their photos their incredible attention to detail, lighting and presentation. I have been to a lot of weddings and I was very impressed. I hope we'll work together at another event in the future! read more

I had the privilege of working for Elle A Events not too long ago, and let me tell you, these folks know how to throw a party. They had everything taken care of for the wedding that I bartended for. Granted there were a few hiccups (that were my fault by the way), but these ladies took it in stride and figured out solutions that made everyone happy. I am seriously considering hiring Elle. A. Events for my wedding, so should you guys. read more

We loved working with Elle, Sydney and the Elle A Events team on a recent wedding reception. From the beginning of the process through the last moments of the event, they were all genuinely friendly, helpful and totally professional. I was impressed with the excellent job they did of communicating the client's vision to us, the caterer, and to all the vendors. Additionally, they are were very hands on and willing to jump in wherever necessary to be sure all the details came together seamlessly. I highly recommend them for weddings or any other special events. read more

What can I say about this team of people?! Ever since my husband and I met them to see our venue, we got immediate good vibes from Sydney and Elle. Really warm, genuine care and passion for their jobs. They really want to make the wedding planning process as painless as possible. TBH, they were my day of coordinators and were working with a venue called Behind The Blue Door in Sherman Oaks (unfortunately, they closed their doors at the end of last year) but it felt like I had planners because they were incredibly helpful. These ladies went WAY above and beyond and words cannot describe how grateful I am for them. I was a clueless bride to be, but they honestly guided me and made shit happen! They executed my vision and everything I wanted at my wedding. I would definitely recommend them to other people because they're incredible! I can only imagine how insanely productive these ladies are once you officially hire them as your wedding planners! They have amazing connections, beautiful execution of visions, and on top of that... they're nice ladies. I think I bugged Sydney a total of 100 times throughout the entire process and she was so gracious and helpful at all hours of the day. Thanks ladies!!!! You made my day memorable and so incredibly special. Can't thank you enough. read more

I went to my friends wedding recently and Elle A Events was her planner! The wedding and reception was just amazing! When I arrived to the wedding my mouth just dropped! The way everything was done, was just spectacular! The way the wedding and reception followed was so smooth! I recently got married and I wish I knew about Elle A Events because now I wish I hired her as my coordinator! read more

Awesome experience. Elle put together an amazing party for us. All her assistants were extremely prompt, and professional. If you need a party...call The Barbie. Thanks again Elle, and Elle A Events. My guest we're blown away! read more

Whoa. Elle and Sydney are amazing. We did a corporate mixer at behind the blue door in Sherman oaks- and wowwww they made this spot the perfect location for our outdoor event. So friendly and completely put me at ease when I left the complications of the event to them. Seriously using them for any other events I do in the future. Awesome team! read more

Wow! Elle and Sydney were amazing. They did a fabulous job on our daughter's wedding. They had wonderful ideas and the connections to pull it off. All their recommendations for vendors were right on the mark. I can honestly say that everything was perfect. There was not one thing that I can say went wrong on the big day. I highly recommend this team for your planning your event! read more

I hired ElleAEvents to handle a small event for me and was an observer at another event they handled. I also worked closely with her team over a period of months. Overall the events were passable, but my experiences were more "lipstick on a pig" than true inspired or even solid work. On both events, the the company's event staff was cobbled together from poorly qualified "friends" of the owner. They were fringe Hollywood bartenders and under-qualified students who were only on task when carefully supervised. As soon as the event was set-up and underway, they proceeded to drink liberally from the open bars paid for by the client. The owner makes a regular habit of flirting and having affairs with her vendors which negatively impacts their performance. Of course this is unprofessional, but in a place like LA where the talented rise far above the average, this points to a complete lack of self-respect that renders any effort sub-standard and destined to fall flat. To put it bluntly, if you want an event that will make you stand out, you don't want a washed-up wannabe-actress pretending that she understands event management to handle yours. The true nitty-gritty of planning and executing at this company is left to staff wholly unqualified for the task. This causes enormous gaps of communication between staff and management that progresses into shouting matches, verbal abuse, and ultimately, confusion both at the office and on-site. In LA, you can and should try for better. read more
