    Where do I even begin if I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would! Mona is next level.. one of the BEST decisions we made for our wedding. From start to finish, everything was executed with such care, precision, and heart. The attention to detail was unreal ..and the flowers?!? STUNNING. They completely exceeded my expectations and brought my entire vision to life in the most magical way. My sofreh was something out of a fairytale. I still can't stop looking at the photos. Mona and her team were so on point day of the wedding. Extremely organized and truly went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect. I didn't worry about a single thing because I knew I was in good hands. When we did the first look into the ballroom my mouth hit the floor .. I was STUNNED..the most beautiful room I have ever seen .. the candles!! Oh my the candles were breathtaking.. She brought my vision to life .. I can't stress that enough.. she executed everything I could of ever imagined and more .. I felt like I was dreaming . Thank you Mona for making our dream wedding come to life .Thank you for making our wedding not just beautiful, but unforgettable. breathtaking beautiful.

    Five stars are simply not enough for Mona at Lalaland. Many people can create something beautiful when given endless resources, but true talent is revealed when someone can transform a small space into something truly magical and that's exactly what Mona did. She turned our home into a spectacular, breathtaking venue that people are still talking about to this day. I rarely write reviews, but I felt compelled to share this experience. As a surgeon, I have a deep appreciation for precision and perfection and Mona embodies both in her work. If you're looking for a wedding planner who truly understands her clients and can create an event that feels completely you, she's the one. She's incredibly thoughtful, understanding, and has such a high EQ -- she just gets it. On top of all that, she's a kind, humble, and beautiful person inside and out. Thank you, Mona, for making our wedding feel like a dream -- you truly created our own little Lalaland!

    Working with Mona and her team was an absolute dream! From their professionalism and responsiveness to their creativity, they made our Nowruz event better than I could have dreamed of. She took care of every detail and really went above and beyond. Her vision is beautiful and she really understood what we were trying to create. I can't sing her praises enough. I will definitely be working with her again in the future.

    Mona joon, our wedding was a testament to your incredible talent. You didn't just meet our expectations; you surpassed them. The precision in every detail, from the table settings complementing the chandeliers to the striking florals, was evident. The sofreh aghd wasn't just a traditional touch--it was a standout feature. Mona also added thoughtful touches we hadn't discussed, making it all the more exciting when I first saw our ceremony/reception on our wedding day and other details throughout the night. Our guests were stunned and complimented every aspect of the day. Also, this wasn't a normal venue, this was a smaller, residential venue. Yet, it completely felt like a formal wedding. The culinary choices were spot on, from the diverse appetizer table to the unique tea selection and delicious salmon station. You wove our Persian heritage into every facet of the celebration in the most elegant, modern, and memorable manner. I'm admittedly particular about details, but she always encouraged open communication and never made me feel hesitant to share my thoughts. Considering she organized everything in just two months and was responsive even outside typical work hours shows her commitment. A special shoutout to your team and Michael for being so understanding, patient, and kind. They were a dream to collaborate with, making the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. 3 days after the wedding, I told my husband, "I miss Mona!" lol. Soroush and I are immeasurably grateful for the memories you've helped create. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you, Mona Joonam. P.s. I don't have the professional photos yet but had to share at least one here.

    Mona is a wonderful woman and she has a very strong, patient and polite character. Mona and her team did really a great work on our wedding day with an awesome professional manner. The special feature in Mona's character which we believe made her unique and different is her confidence, thoughtfulness and super caring personality. That's the reason I highly recommend Mona and her team as an event planner/Day Coordinator for any events. She has really good communication and connections with most of the vendors which made us feel relieved in any stressful situation. We had Mona design our sofre Aghd, Tea and fruit table, and our wedding day coordinator. Her elegant design was amazing and very eye-catching and accentuated the beauty of our wedding day. Our sofre aghd was unique and fabulous from the combination of Silver and Mirror which met our expectations and taste.

    We had our daughter's 18th BD planned by Lalaland Events. I cannot be happier with their service. Mona is very detailed oriented and makes sure everything looks as great as possible . Also everything from the appetizer to dinner taste great too . Mona showed up on time and managed her team to set up everything. All of her staff were very personable and polite, and we really enjoyed working with the whole team. If you are looking for a premium party, Mona is the only person you can trust and enjoy your party with your guests. Thank you so much, and great job to all of you for your service

    Sofre Aghd .

    FANTASTIC work and service! In our bicultural wedding ( Persian-western), I wanted to present my culture and my tradition in the best way possible. The Sofreh Aghd and Desert station that Lalaland deigned and set, absolutely elevated our wedding event. Mona is very detailed oriented and talented. Her unique design ideas and beautiful taste brought a high level of elegance to our big day. Our guests were truly stunned by sofre aghd. Mona not only is naturally takented in taste and design, she is also a great leader. Her team is very well trained with the highest level of professionalism that rarely seen. Dear Mona, you certainly went above and beyond our expectations. Thank you! All in all, if you are looking for a dedicated, professional and luxury wedding planner with a kind and humble manner, Mona is the one to go with.

    Sofreh Aghd by Mona

    Lalaland Events, Mona, and the entire team were truly exceptional and professional. When we decided to start planning a wedding, we did our due diligence interviewing different candidates. Mona with Lalaland Events stood out to us in part based on her demeanor, knowledge, and the energy she brought to my wife and me. We had nothing short of an incredible and magical wedding on 9/17/23 at VEA Newport Beach, which could not have happened without Mona and the entire Lalaland Events Team. Mona was able to assist us in planning a wedding in under 6 months, connected us to the top tier vendors, effectively communicated all the logistics of the entire planning process, and left nothing for surprise. As picky as my wife and I can be, we were absolutely thrilled with our wedding. More pictures will ensue but I left a couple here. Mona also assisted us in setting up such an elegant Sofreh Aghd table for our ceremony. As one of the biggest events of your life, it is absolutely critical to have the right team on your side. With our sincerest appreciation and admiration, thank you Mona and Lalaland Events!!! -Arash & Sara

    This review is for Suhainah and the BEL team who helped us organize our wedding reception…read more The day of our event, Suhainah and a group of 4-5 other women went above and beyond to make sure our wedding reception went smoothly. They coordinated with all vendors well, directed guests and made the experience stress free. Everyone was so sweet to us and our dog, Rocky. We brought Rocky to our party and they made sure she was taken care of the entire time. It was so thoughtful. Rocky says the team gets 5 stars!

    Horrible experience, stay away!…read more This is a review for Eliza at BEL Events for her wedding planning services. We met Eliza at our venue 8 month before our wedding date. During the first session she presented herself well, and she talked and bragged a lot about her 18 yrs of experience in event planning and stories about how she handles wedding situations. So, we thought she is the right event planner for us and signed a contract. After signing the contract and making the payment, she was very hard to find and we did not see the expected action from her side, and every time we followed up, her response was: "don't worry I will manage everything before the wedding day". We were asking for the basics of planning such as timeline, vendor recommendations (a few to choose from) and communications (which was part of the contract) but not no action except a quote of her own rental service. We were getting closer to the wedding date and her lack of action made us so worried and very frustrated. Eventually we had to get involved and did almost 90% of the work ourselves. She was very hard to find but even when we could talk to her, she would create more unnecessary problems to an extant that my wife had panic attacks after a few meetings we had with her. 2 month before our wedding she caused so much anxiety and frustration that we decided to end our contract with her and find another planner. Thankfully, our new planner was amazing and our Wedding planning went very smooth after that, and the event was as wonderful as we could imagine! With way lower cost than what Eliza had proposed! After I requested to cancel the contract she disappeared and never responded to our emails, which is very unprofessional. Here is a list of a few issues from our experience of working with here: 1- Accessibility: every time we had a question or needed to talk to her, it was taking several days until she gets back to us. With irrelevant excuses, like she would show me her busy google calendar! 2- Push to use her own services as vendors: Per her contract she had to suggest different vendors so we can choose. But since she has rental and flower services, she was arguing so much to stop us from even looking at other options! She charges unnecessarily expensive! By doing a little research, we found our vendors and saved at least 50% with same or better quality! 3- Nonsense arguments and rude attitude: In many occasions she was just insisting on holding the event the way SHE wants, without paying attention to our request or desire. Every time we requested something, her answer was: "I don't want MY event to be that way or I don't want MY guests to be that way"!!! With a condescending attitude emphasizing that "I have 18 yrs of experience and I know what to do"!!! Any simple request would become a long story and unnecessary argument. In one occasion my wife requested that guests throw flower petals while walking out of aisle, and she immediately said: "No!, you can't do that, I don't want my cleaning crew spend time on cleaning the petals"!!!! In another occasion Eliza was insisting on only using her recommended valet service (which was quoting more than double the price of the service we eventually used) and on top of it she was forcing us to rent extra parking lot out of venue and pay extra for shuttle service!!!! While the venue had enough capacity! And when I respectfully said: I am confident that the venue has enough capacity for parking, she got very angry and said: "in that case tell all your guests to use UBER and they can't drive their own car"!!! It was a nightmare working with BEL Events and I don't recommend her service due to lack of professionalism and decency in her business.

    Abby is an absolute rockstar wedding planner! Where do we even start? From our very first call with…read moreAbby, we knew she was different. She wasn't just trying to sell us a package - she genuinely wanted to get to know us as a couple, our story, and the kind of vibe we wanted our wedding to have. That first impression stuck with us. Over the next two years of planning, Abby and her team brought our ideas to life and helped to make our dream wedding a reality. Design: We told Abby we wanted an "East Meets West" theme that blended our cultures in a way that felt modern and elegant, a tough balance that could've easily come off as cheesy in if executed poorly. But Abby nailed it of course, her design sense is unreal. From color palettes and floral choices to the way she tied together modern décor with cultural elements, everything was cohesive and elevated. She has an incredible eye for detail and always found creative, out-of-the-box ways to make our ideas work. The end result was a wedding that felt truly felt like us! Communication: Throughout the entire process, Abby and her team were consistently on top of communication. She kept us updated between meetings, sent friendly reminders, and made sure we were always aligned on next steps. It's easy for things to slip through the cracks when planning something this big, but Abby kept everything organized and stress-free. We never once felt out of the loop, she was always calm, professional, and genuinely fun to talk to. Vendor Management: Abby's vendor management skills are next level. She has deep connections and knows everyone in the wedding world. When we needed vendors for flowers, desserts, or décor, she already had a curated list of the best options with pros and cons ready for us. Some of our vendors were booked more than a year in advance, but Abby and her team were always on top of follow-ups, contracts, and logistics. By the time the big day arrived, every vendor was perfectly coordinated. It really felt like we had assembled the Avengers of wedding vendors! Working Style: We can't say enough about how enjoyable it was to work with Abby and her team. They're so friendly, positive, and genuinely care about their couples. You can tell they love what they do and that they actually enjoy working together - it felt like they were more of friends than coworkers. Whenever unexpected hiccups came up (and they always do in wedding planning), Abby handled them with grace and a sense of humor. She's done hundreds of weddings, so she always had the experience to guide us to make informed decisions. It was so fun working with the entire team and it made the stressful process of wedding planning feel less stressful. Execution: This is where Abby and her team truly shine. Planning is one thing, but executing flawlessly is another and they did it all seamlessly. From coordinating vendors to keeping our timeline on track, they were everywhere and nowhere all at once, putting out fires behind the scenes before we even knew they existed. The day flowed perfectly. At the end of the night, we were blown away to see how they had already packed up all our belongings, made sure our ride was ready, and tied up every little loose end without us lifting a finger. That level of thoughtfulness really showed how much they care. Budget & Financial Management: The truth is weddings are expensive, and it's easy for costs to spiral if you're not careful. Abby was phenomenal at keeping everything organized and transparent. She tracked every expense, set reminders for upcoming milestone payments for vendors, and even handled tipping for all our vendors so we didn't have to stress about it on the big day. What really stood out was her honesty and foresight -- anytime a decision could push us beyond our budget, she proactively flagged it and walked us through the financial trade-offs before we committed. Thanks to her meticulous tracking and planning, there were zero surprises at the end. Everything was clearly outlined and accounted for, which gave us complete peace of mind. In short, Abby and her team are the best in the business. They bring design expertise, organization, and heart to every step of the process. You'll see what we mean once you have the first introductory call with her. She's the kind of planner who truly loves what she does, doesn't settle for anything less than perfect, and it shows in every detail. We highly recommend her for anyone looking for a top class wedding planner!
