I wish I’d spoke up on being self conscious about my butt, and I didn’t so I have some pictures I probably won’t be sharing, but the pictures we have are pretty, she got everything I wanted during our ceremony, I just wish I had gotten some pictures with my bridesmaids and me in my wedding dress. The ball got dropped on that. Other than that I’m happy with my ceremony pictures, and some of the pictures where I’m facing away from the camera I’m not a huge fan of. My husband loves them though, so that’s good. There was some miscommunication on editing and what not, but over all we got some really good photos.

  • Starts at $7,000

Hailing from New Orleans, LA, and now based out of South Orange County, CA, I fell in love with photography long ago. I officially launched my wedding & elopement photography business in 2021. After graduating in the middle of a worldwide pandemic, I found myself having the time to further fall in love with photography, getting the chance to photograph more and more - so much so that I was able to start my own business in a rather unexpected way. Now able to travel the world with my camera in tow, I am beyond grateful for this passion turned career, & I feel so blessed every time my finger presses down on my camera shutter.

Cassidy is the best! I'm a videographer so I always look forward to any wedding that I get to work with Cassidy. She's professional, fun, and so easy to work with.

Eric Morales was our DJ for our wedding in Temecula! He was absolutely amazing, helped keep us on schedule and kept the party alive the whole time! I had multiple guests tell me that they were so impressed with his style and loved how he got everyone on the dance floor for a group photo and then immediately started the party with everyone out there! It was so much fun, and if I ever need a DJ for something I will be hiring Eric! I also loved his use of the cold sparklers for our exit and even when there was a hiccup he made sure we got all the pictures! I cannot rave enough about how happy I was with our wedding experience and this company! 10/10 recommend! Also I know a big thing for brides is their playlist, and the platform we used to pick all our songs was so easy to use and Eric even checked with me to make sure everything was as I wanted it! He played great music all night and was able to capture all the genres we love!

My name is Dominiq and I have been in the wedding industry since 2006. I absolutely LOVE what I do. My middle name is Jakob so my name is literally DJ, I was born for this. I have 6 sisters so not only do I love what I do, but I believe in it as a hopeless romantic at heart. I enjoy bringing together families and friends to forget about their problems for a day and just enjoy life and celebrate.

From the moment we started working with DJ Dominiq, we knew we were in good hands. He was incredibly patient and attentive, taking the time to understand our vision for the music and vibe of our wedding. On the day of, Dominiq's energy and enthusiasm were infectious - he really got my more reserved family members out on the dance floor, leading them in fun group dances like the Macarena. The music was perfectly timed, and he even helped make our first dance extra special by cueing the song at just the right moment. As a busy veterinarian, I really appreciated how on top of communication Dominiq was when it came to finalizing the song choices. Our wedding was almost 6 years ago, and to this day my family is still raving about how amazing the music and overall vibe was thanks to Dominiq's fantastic work. We couldn't recommend him more highly! He even captured this amazing photo of our first dance! It’s beautifully displayed in our living room. It’s the little things that he went above and beyond for us and he is truly amazing at what he does!

We had an incredible experience with Tyler’s Saxophone Experience from start to finish. Booking was easy, the contract was thorough and clear, and Tyler was extremely communicative throughout the entire process, which made everything seamless and stress-free. I booked him for my daughter’s XV, and he truly went above and beyond. Tyler listened carefully to all of her song requests and put together a hip, amazing playlist that perfectly matched her style and the vibe of the event. He even took the time to visit the venue ahead of the event to scope out the space and make sure everything was set up for the best possible experience. The ceremony songs were absolutely beautiful, and during cocktail hour he was upbeat, engaging, and brought such great energy. We received several compliments from our guests about how much they loved the music and the atmosphere he created. I would absolutely book Tyler again and highly recommend him to anyone looking to elevate their event with a talented, professional, and thoughtful musician.

When my husband and I started our journey to plan our wedding, I knew we were going to need some help. We are non traditional, with very eclectic tastes, and we were going to need someone special to help us pull off all of our insane ideas. I extensively researched over 20 coordinators, had a phones calls with 5 different companies, but ultimately I knew Ashley from Rose Event Co. was going to be the one. From the start she personable, intelligent, and made me feel understood in what our vision was for our special day. Throughout the process she was punctual with all of our appointments, gave helpful suggestions, and made me feel confident leaving my type A personality and needs in her hands. The weekend of the wedding came, and a lot of creative problem solving as well. We rented a private mansion for our event and did the rehearsal the day before. Ashley was there early, having already communicated with my other vendors and the venue to make sure we would be prepared for our big day. What we didn't expect was the kitchen under construction, furniture and decor that had not been moved at our previous requests(but promised), rooms that we had planned for, but could no longer use, and the Venue staff not "remembering" months worth of text and phone call conversations about our needs and expectations, as well as their promises and what they were supposed to deliver. There were other issues, but I digress. Ashley immediately stepped in with ideas and to be the go between with the Venue, and to help troubleshoot the long list of problems that had now come up. The night before was stressful for my Husband and I, not knowing if we were going pull this off, but I knew with Ashley, we were in good hands. The day of she brought her A game, a stunning red dress, and handled business. She was not afraid to get involved and make sure everything we wanted happened. She listened to our needs, knew when to step up or step down, was super flexible in our timeline and made sure to handle any issues that arose during the wedding. Her ability to read a situation and adapt to the issues at hand made her the perfect fit to our crazy ideas. She has incredible creative problem solving and is kind hearted and hard working. If it wasn't for Ashley, we could not have pulled off our day. I would recommend her 10x's over, to any bride that wants an absolute badass by their side. She handles business, and gives confidence to her clients. Thank you Ashley and Rose Event Co. for turning what could have been a disaster into a day dream!

So blessed to have Joey for our June wedding with lavender theme. Highest ROI florist in SoCal if not the whole country! Love her genuine care about our style and budget, her effective communication, her attention to details, especially her efforts to go extra mile to ensure a perfect wedding. Besides arranging flowers, Joey also helped with cake decoration, table card distribution, seating chart placement with her own mirror and waxing seals etc., leaving us full peace of mind before and during the wedding day. She didn’t charge extra labor cost for loading/unloading, unlike other florists we quoted, and we need to thank her husband for the logistics part too! Joey also solved the emergency caused by the church runner I bought. Luckily she offered to help set up the runner and found about the wrong size the day before she took the folded runner out for ironing. Although I didn’t use her service as planner or coordinator of the wedding, I can tell how awesome she will be when she wears those hats. Hope more brides-to-be can get to know her before signing with other florists & planners.

Couples shoots can sometimes feel awkward, but Wyld Story helped us feel relaxed and like ourselves (often getting a big belly laugh out of me). Alyssa worked with me to bring my vision to life, and Tucker's skills behind the camera made it all a reality. I highly recommend Wyld Story to capture any special moment.

We couldn’t be happier with our wedding photos. They are absolutely beautiful and captured every moment that mattered to us. Jenny made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. She had already scouted the location and knew exactly where to take the best shots. Her posing tips felt easy and natural, and the photos turned out stunning. She kept in touch with us before, during, and after the wedding, which made everything stress-free. We’re so grateful for her talent and professionalism. These photos are memories we’ll treasure forever. Thank you so much Jenny!

Planning a destination wedding from across the country seemed daunting until we found Brandi. We live in Nashville but wanted a beach wedding in California. We relied entirely on Brandi's expertise and she exceeded all expectations. Opting for her "total" package was the best decision we made, as Brandi handled every detail seamlessly. Brandi managed everything flawlessly—from touring venues and coordinating food tastings to arranging vendor interviews. Her organization skills were exceptional; she provided us with a detailed budget, a personalized floral and decor presentation, and created an online platform for all our contracts, making it easy to stay organized even from afar. As busy professionals, having Brandi take care of the intricate details allowed us to focus on the most important aspects of our wedding planning. Her proactive approach and attention to detail ensured that our wedding day was absolutely perfect. We can't thank Brandi enough for her dedication and professionalism throughout the entire process. She made our destination wedding dreams come true with her expertise and unwavering support. If you're looking for a wedding planner who will go above and beyond, Brandi is the one. We highly recommend her services without hesitation!

I rarely wear make-up, but knew I needed to have make-up for all the pictures and other festivities of my wedding day. The look that Paru gave me looked natural, and I did not feel overdone. She was great at asking about my preferences and showing me options. She did my hair and make-up and my two bridesmaids' make-up. She was great at time management. We had a morning wedding (11:30AM), so she was there early to get us ready and got us all out the door on time looking fabulous! She is also very personable. I could not have asked for a better make-up and hair artist!
