She makes the process very seamless and had the utmost patience, especially with me as the bride. Our wedding was exactly what I had in my head but couldn't put into words.

There are not enough words to describe how much I loved working with Christine to plan my dream…read morewedding! Our planning process started a year an a half before the actual date of the wedding. Christine introduced me to vendors that I would have never had the pleasure of meeting or knowing about... She attended every meeting with me and was always available via phone call or text. It's one thing to know vendors in the industry, any coordinator can do that, but her taste and her ability to grasp your visions and turn them into a reality is a talent that is unparalleled. For weeks and months after my wedding I received phone calls and texts from relatives and friends telling me how beautiful and fun our wedding was. Overall, it was my absolute pleasure to work with Christine and her staff. I can't wait to have another special occasion so that I could work with Christine again. I'm so honored to have been a FancyBride!

All I had to do was describe my vision for our event and she did the rest. Constant updates on pieces she wanted to incorporate along with pricing. She worked so hard at getting us the best deal! She stayed within our budget but somehow managed to exceed my expectations. The day of the shower I felt like everything just fell into place and I completely trusted her timing and judgement. I know the time and effort it took her and will be forever grateful!

Looking back at how special our wedding was to us and how it all came together fabulously, i have…read moreto give a huge shout out to Amber G of Amber Events. Planing your wedding can be a daunting task, stressful, chaotic, filled with drama, and sometimes disappointing and this is where Amber stepped in and saved us. Hiring Amber was one of the best decisions we made. Amber understood our vision and already had ideas of how to achieve them even before we officially hired her. You really cant say that about every vendor or wedding coordinator out there. For some vendors its just a contract but for Amber its creating a bond and we are grateful for that. Amber provides three different types of services depending on how much assistance you need in achieving your dream. Wedding Supervisor: http://www.amberevents.com/graphics/WeddingSUPERVISION.pdf Wedding Director: http://www.amberevents.com/graphics/WeddingDIRECTION.pdf Wedding production: http://www.amberevents.com/graphics/WeddingPRODUCTION.pdf We opted for the Wedding Director package since we already had booked some of the vendors. We needed someone to put all of our ideas together and make them work cohesively. Amber was all of that and a bag of chips. She had fantastic ideas, advice, took care of all of our vendors including the problematic ones, got us organized, gave us monthly tasks to complete, wedding day outline, rehearsal management, and the list goes on and on. Amber was very instrumental with our art deco theme ideas designing our invitation card, save the date cards, and using old luggage as part of our theme. Our wedding went off without a hitch. There were no problems with any of the vendors and they all knew what they had to do and at what time. All thanks to Amber and her amazing managerial skills and timeline mastery. We got what we wanted, to spend our wedding day with friends and family that we love stress free and most importantly smiling throughout the night celebrating our special day. Amber, Angela and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts and we don't consider you a "vendor" but a friend. Thank you for helping us make our vision and dream come true.

Lisa was super communicative and that made the entire wedding go really really smooth. The bride, groom and all of their guests had a blast, and it all started with Lisa. If Lisa is available for your wedding, don't even think twice, book her right away. You can thank me later.

There is a sweet, reassuring grace to the way Amy guides a wedding day from start to finish…read more Having shared many wedding mornings with her over the years, I've always admired how she handles the unexpected. No matter what changes behind the scenes, Amy has a way of protecting the bride's peace. While our team focuses on hair and makeup, she quietly brings all the moving pieces together without ever letting the bride feel the stress about any details. That kind of care is a gift. Amy leads with warmth, humility, and confidence, making everyone around her feel supported. Working alongside her is always a joy, and I'd happily recommend her to any couple!

Amy was super easy to work with. Our wedding was relatively low demand in terms of structure but…read moreshe went above and beyond to accommodate the oddball requests we had that were outside of the purview of traditional wedding activities. Even somehow found us a Dokkbukki (Korean rice cake) vendor for our cocktail hour (see pictured) She's very good for the "modern" customer. Very capable when it comes to organizing through online systems and knows how to source through social media. Probably good for older folks too, but if you're a younger couple, you'll find her style very easy and efficient.

The Mad Love team took such incredible care of us throughout our entire wedding planning process…read more Cindy was so warm during our first call with her, and it really set the tone for all of our future interactions with the rest of her team! Shasele was our point of contact, and she was kind, thorough, and patient with us as we worked through all of our requirements and asked her a million different questions about the process. She also made sure to provide regular checklists of items to make sure we stayed on track, while also not putting too much pressure on us! Claire handled putting together a gorgeous design brief based on inspiration photos we gathered, which definitely helped as we went through the process of selecting and working with vendors--all of whom were also incredible! An important thing I also want to mention is that I had a sudden health issue flare up partway through our venue search, which set things back by a year. The team was incredibly understanding and checked in periodically while offering well wishes until I was ready to return to planning, and I deeply appreciate how patient they all were during such a difficult time. Overall we couldn't not have asked for a better planning team to work with, and we're so incredibly grateful to Mad Love Events for making our special day so perfect!

This review is long long overdue, Cindy and her amazing team helped us execute our dream wedding…read moreback in September of 2022 in Malibu, and absolutely recommend them if you guys are even on the fence or looking for a wedding planner/coordinator. Please continue reading and stop looking elsewhere and be completely convinced that you guys should go with MLE immediately! MLE was involved as our Day of Coordinator and planning activities 6 weeks leading up to the big day. Cindy's experience, consideration, professionalism, and honesty (this is a huge one) made what could have been a very stressful day into a stress-free day, or least as stress free as a wedding day can get it, haha. As the days approached the big day, we were already pretty happy with MLE, but once the big day came, they completely kicked it up into high gear. They were so seamless in working in the background to make everything come together with the vendors, timing, handling of guests, etc. We had a delay due to the florist, but they handled it so well that the guests couldn't tell, only we could, and even when we tried to get involved, MLE assured us that it was taken care of, and not to worry. They even went above and beyond in moving some flowers to be better positioned around our mirror guest list, which elevated how the florist had originally planned for. They were very considerate and thoughtful for us by making sure appetizers were set aside for us while we were taking pictures, we were very pleasantly surprised to find a big bowl of our seafood items sitting at our couples table, since we definitely didn't get a chance to get to it. Throughout the night, they made a point to bring us drinks, dessert, help with a small crisis on my mom's side. I really couldn't have imagined having a better coordinator the day of, I wish I had another big event to plan, because I would absolutely go back to them for their services. AND the amazing service doesn't even stop at the wedding day! Their follow up emails to reflect back on what went wrong or what went well shows how much they care about their work. They were very meticulous in addressing any concerns we had that happened on the big day and most importantly, they were honest. They were truthful about the reasons why some things didn't go as planned, and that to us is the most important trait in a coordinator that you can trust them. In the end, they were instrumental in even getting us partial refunds from vendors because of them not holding completely true to their agreements. If you've read this to its end, you don't need to look elsewhere, hire Cindy and her team now! You won't regret it!

I contacted Jill at Jordan Event Studios to do the event planning for my sister-in-law's bridal…read moreshower. It was a total no brainer to hire her after our consultation. I told her what my budget was, what I was hoping to achieve in terms of décor and general feel for the shower. Jill's proposal included planning, invitations, site signage and decor, dessert table, party favors and on-site coordination the day of the event. Jill incorporated face-to-face meetings, Skype, email and Pinterest boards during the planning stage. She made recommendations that really fit into the idea I had in my head. For example, I HATE getting useless favors from weddings and showers. So instead of spending money on something that the guests would just throw away, Jill created individual mini potted basil plants as the favors. Each mini pot also had a little thank you note for attending the shower. Brilliant. When I entered the venue for the event, I knew she nailed it. Everything was exactly as we discussed or exceeded my expectations. All the guests thought the shower was gorgeous and I received many compliments for all "my" hard work. Working with JES took all the stress out of planning this very important event. I will definitely be using Jill and the JES team for my next event.

We consider ourselves lucky to have had the privilege of working with someone who translated our vision with such style, grace, and professionalism. EVERY detail exceeded our expectations. You truly provided a service from start to finish and everything in between!

It was truly a joy to have the comfort of knowing that all the details were being attended to and there was not an ounce of stress put on us! You are a true professional and your passion for your work was clearly evident at our wedding! Even our guests stated that our wedding was one of the most organized they had ever seen and we owe that to you!

We hired Falon to be our month-of coordinator for our wedding at Millwick in March 2023, and this…read moredefinitely was the best choice we could've made in our entire wedding planning process. Falon played a huge part in making our wedding event an incredible success, and she does it all with such a contagious effortlessness and coolness that you can't help but feel that everything is going to run smoothly no matter what while she is around. In the weeks before the wedding, while my partner and I were scrambling to make sure we had all of our logistics in order, she organized everything that needed to be done in a way that was easy to manage and coordinate, and it helped bring down our stress levels a lot. We could easily see that we were working with a master in this field, and her vast knowledge and experience in wedding planning was so helpful in guiding us making decisions throughout this entire process. She also made it so easy for us to communicate with her at any time with any questions we had, and she always responded quickly. On the day of the wedding, seeing Falon in action was an awe to behold. She took on the organization and setup of all the wedding decor, made sure that all the other vendors arrived on time and had everything they needed, and expertly managed the timeline of the day, making adjustments where needed to ensure we were never too off-track. She was always calm and focused, but never felt cold or too strict. She always asked the right questions at the right times when she needed to, and even though she was handling a million things, she never made herself unapproachable if we had any questions or requests for her. Even when we had a moment during our wedding that threatened to almost drive everything wildly off-course, she remained cool as a cucumber and worked with us to course correct. She is personally responsible for allowing our wedding to surpass every expectation we had and ending up being one of the most memorable and best events we have experienced so far. It is not an exaggeration when I say that she took care of everything from beginning to end, so that we were just able to enjoy and savor the day we had planned so long for. In conclusion, if you plan on having a wedding at any of the amazing Marvimon properties, do yourself a favor and hire Falon. She is the key ingredient that will ensure that you have a successful wedding, guaranteed.

I am not sure any review could fully capture how incredible Candice is or how grateful we are that…read morewe chose her to plan our wedding. Hiring Candice was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding, and we genuinely cannot imagine having gone through this experience without her. We booked the Whole Milk package and started working with Candice about ten months before our wedding. From the very beginning, she made the entire planning process feel incredibly smooth, organized, and easy. Wedding planning can involve an overwhelming number of decisions and moving pieces, but with Candice, we always felt like everything was under control. One of the biggest advantages of working with Candice is her incredible network and relationships with vendors throughout the LA area. She works with truly top-notch, high-quality people, and it is so clear how much her vendors respect and enjoy working with her. She stays in constant communication with everyone throughout the planning process and, as the wedding approaches, coordinates all of the details between vendors. Candice is also unbelievably organized and detail-oriented. The wedding-day timeline she created for us was incredibly comprehensive. She thought through things we never would have even considered and had every little detail accounted for. She also has an amazing eye for design and helped us create a wedding that was more beautiful than we could have imagined, while always making sure that our own tastes and preferences were at the center of every decision. She gives great advice and guidance without ever making you feel like there is a "right" way you have to do something. We received SO many compliments on how beautiful our wedding was and design of everything and that so many details were thought of to make the guest experience wonderful. As amazing as she was throughout the planning process, the wedding day itself is where Candice truly shined. She took care of absolutely everything. She has such a calm, easygoing presence that somehow makes you feel like there is genuinely nothing you need to worry about. We were able to be completely present and enjoy our wedding because we knew Candice was behind the scenes making sure every detail was handled. Our families absolutely adored her as well. By the end of the night, everyone could see how invested she was in our wedding and just how much work she had put into making the day perfect for us. She went above and beyond in so many ways, especially at the end of the night, taking care of countless little things for us that we hadn't even thought about. After working together for almost a year, we felt so much trust in Candice, and by our wedding day, she felt like such an important part of the experience. Our wedding was everything we dreamed it would be, and so much of that is because of Candice. We would hire her again in a heartbeat and recommend Candice and Milk Events without hesitation. Truly the best.

We planned an out-of-town wedding which is already stressful but Candice was our main point of contact for all the vendors and handled everything so smoothly. I'm not gonna lie, we were totally procrastinating on certain things but she is so incredibly organized and communicative that she kept us on top of it all without making us feel overwhelmed. She knows her stuff inside and out. She constantly went so far out of her way for us. When we flew into town to meet with vendors, our schedule was packed. The cake place was way too far away for us to make it so Candice literally drove out of her way to go pick up the cake samplers and bring them to us to take home just so we wouldn't miss out. Two days before the wedding, I was spiraling bc I thought our seating chart signage and menus weren't going to arrive in time. Candice immediately jumped in with a backup plan to fix it. Thank goodness they did arrive but we had a back up plan just in case. And the actual wedding day? She was a total rockstar!! Everything felt completely seamless. Even our guests and wedding party were pulling us aside to say how impressed they were by how professional and amazing her and her team were. Candice is just an incredible human and truly the best at what she does. You will be in the absolute best hands!
