Because of Joanna and J.Soiree, on our wedding day we were as stress-free as a bride and groom…read morecould be. We actually attended another wedding that Joanna coordinated before we were preparing for ours. Joanna was on our radar because that wedding party had high praise for her. We interviewed a couple other wedding coordinators during our search, but Joanna was the most organized and prepared, and the most enthusiastic of all. She gave us a great presentation and asked all the right questions during our introductory meeting; we felt at ease. Even though her fees are higher, the peace of mind is priceless. After we hired Joanna, she gave us a list of recommended vendors and a week-by-week to-do checklist, which made the wedding planning process easier. We were on our own for the most part, and at times we were skeptical whether we made a mistake hiring J.Soiree, but once the 8-week countdown began, Joanna was very active to connect with all of our vendors to make sure everyone was on the same page. She was very responsive with emails; my email notification was constantly going off with updates. We worked side by side to make all the final details that we didn't think of - like linens for the different tables, the drapery for the stage, etc. We were very much at ease. We definitely put Joanna to work on our wedding day. We were completely hands-off, and Joanna was running the show, and with flying colors. She created and followed a timeline detailed to the minute, and it went off without a hitch (that we know of). We were amazed and excited to see the whole event coming together, and more importantly how stress-free we were. All of our guests and even our vendors had a great time, and all praised on how well our wedding was put together. We couldn't take the credit, as it was Joanna who oversaw the event. So, thank you Joanna, for creating an amazing event for us that we will cherish for the rest of our lives together. Again, if you're looking for a wedding coordinator, with J.Soiree you can be as worry-free as we were and will be in great hands.

She has a wonderful upbeat personality & is everything you would want in a coordinator. Organized, detailed oriented, sweet, & positive. She loves what she does, which is important and you can see that. Having my own business I know how it is to go back and forth with details with my brides, but Joanna eliminates that and gets you the details before I even have to go through my brides. I love that. Less stress for the bride & makes it simpler for me. I love her!

We cannot thank our wedding planners enough for the incredible job they did! From start to finish,…read morethey handled every detail with professionalism, care, and creativity. Thanks to their thoughtful planning and seamless coordination, my husband and I were able to be fully present and truly enjoy our special day without being pulled out of the moment for a single thing. They connected us with amazing vendors who perfectly matched our vision, and everything--from the ceremony to the reception--flowed beautifully. If you're looking for a planning team that will allow you to be carefree and fully soak in every moment of your wedding or event, we wholeheartedly recommend them. Absolute rockstars!

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!

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!

My husband was reluctant on hiring a planner but t the end of the day, he was so glad we did! We loved her so much we hired her again for our daughter's Quinceanera. Again, she took care of everything. She such a big help. My husband and I were able to enjoy our daughter's big day with no worries because Heather was on top of it! If you are hesitate about the additional cost, it is so worth it. Heather is worth it. Having a stress free event is worth it! She is top notch!

When I started planning my wedding, the first thing I did was book Cathy as my coordinator. I knew…read moreupon our first meeting that I had made the right decision -- not only was she easy to talk to, fun, and stylish, she was super organized and full of ideas, which put my mind at ease about the whole process. She offers different levels of coordination -- I knew I wanted to make most of the planning decisions myself, but I needed a bit more than day of, so she put together a custom package for me. One thing I really appreciated was that unlike other planners I talked to, she didn't try to nickel-and-dime me with additional charges for every little item, which can quickly add up when it comes to weddings! During the course of planning, I contacted Cathy several times with questions about everything (from venues to vendors to flowers to paper goods, etc. etc.) and she was always available to help. She totally went above and beyond what was specified in our contract -- to name just a few things, she made initial letters for the ceremony, put together a really adorable "advice to the bride and groom" station in lieu of a guestbook, and even accompanied me to my final dress fitting! On the day of, Cathy and her team were on top of everything, from the beginning to the very end. All I had to do was show up and enjoy my beautiful wedding! :) I would highly recommend Cathy and Chic to Chic Weddings to any bride looking for a detailed and capable planner who can help execute your vision to perfection.

Looking back, what I miss MOST about my wedding is working with Cathy, of Chic to Chic weddings…read more Cathy's vibrant and creative energy made the beastly wedding process exciting and fun. From beginning to end, Cathy has been the positive and creative force behind our wedding. I honestly didn't know where to start...and yes, I freaked out a little, but after ONE meeting with Cathy, I was excited and ready to tackle the monster. Cathy was able to take my little vision and make it come to life. Everything was 100% customized to perfection....with love. I was SO relaxed on the wedding day knowing that Cathy was there. The bridesmaids and I were 1.5 hours late to the venue because of LA traffic, but under Cathy's reign, everything went smoothly. I love her. I don't know how she does it. The best thing about Cathy is that she loves her job (I would turn into a big DOMO monster and crush everything in sight if I had her job). She loves working with people and people love her. I would HIGHLY recommend Chic to Chic weddings!

It was clear how much thought and love went into every decision she helped make.

We worked with Love Loud Events for over three years planning our wedding (thanks COVID!)…read more Christina was wonderful to work with. She gave honest feedback when I ran different vendors past her, and was adept at understanding our vision. Honestly, by the time our wedding came around, I felt like she was our friend rather than our planner! On the day of, you are going to need someone who has the courage to be assertive with a range of vendors and guests. You don't anticipate how hard this is until you're in it- someone needs to make sure the show is on schedule and that people are moving where they should. Christina balanced this well, skillfully threading the needle as kind and no-nonsense. I always heard how stressful weddings were for brides, but was surprised to find that I simply had FUN. I credit Christina with taking much of the worry off my plate. Multiple friends and family members also mentioned how helpful/enjoyable Christina was, and I truly value their opinions. We recommend Love Loud very highly, and I'm already thinking about what kinds of events we can host in the future that we can hire Christina for! Or invite her to. :)

The venue that they managed at our event on 08/18/18 was quite a challenge, logistics-wise, since it was a HUGE private residence in Calabasas. There were a few issues with the vendors parking and guests parking but Rachel handled it well with the valet crew and made the whole parking situation in order. There were lots of items that were set-up in 3 different locations: Ceremony, Cocktail & Reception, and not-to-mention the BIG 10-12 bedroom house in the property. I can go on & on with this team... We highly recommend them to anyone who wants someone on TOP of everything!! Thank you Rachel! We appreciate how you handled us, the vendors! Your whole planning process worked out very well! -Jonah (888 Productions)

There truly aren't enough words to express how grateful we are for Christina. From the very…read morebeginning, she made every step of the planning process feel effortless. She took the time to get to know us, understand our vision, and brought every detail to life in such a personal and thoughtful way. Our wedding was everything we had ever dreamed of--and honestly, even better than we imagined. Every detail was flawless, and we were able to be fully present and enjoy the day because we trusted Christina completely. She is incredibly organized, professional, calm under pressure, and, most importantly, someone you can trust wholeheartedly. If you're looking for a wedding planner who genuinely cares about her couples and will go above and beyond to create the wedding of your dreams, Christina is the one. We feel so lucky to have had her by our side, and we can't recommend her highly enough. She made what could have been a stressful process feel joyful, and she gave us memories we'll cherish for the rest of our lives.

Hiring Christina was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From our first…read moreconsultation, she listened to our vision, provided suggestions, & set us with realistic expectations we could achieve with our budget. She made us feel seen & heard & was honest without making us feel like we were limited or had to compromise. She found us vendors we absolutely loved & every single one felt like a perfect match (to this day we still have people asking for their contacts & telling us how much they loved our vendors). What impressed us the most was Christina's attention to detail. Nothing slipped through the cracks. She remembered things I mentioned in passing, caught details I never would've noticed, & made sure everything was planned with intention & care. I always felt like she genuinely wanted our day to be perfect & honestly, with how many times things changed from regarding to timelines, ideas, guest list, you name it, she never once made me feel stressed or overwhelmed. Instead, she constantly reassured me, adapted without hesitation, & delivered results better than what I had imagined. Christina's calm confidence was exactly what I needed, & she made me feel supported every step of the way. Our wedding day was beautiful, seamless, & everything we hoped for thanks to her. Things that stressed me out the week of our wedding, did not cross my mind. I had Christina, my advocate, my visionary, & my friend. I can't recommend her enough. Even my husband who was not on board for hiring a wedding planner was so appreciative to have Christina. After attending a friend's wedding, he even mentioned how important it was. If you're looking for someone who's thoughtful, organized, budget conscious, detail oriented, & truly cares about her couples, she's the one for you.
