We still have people gushing about how amazed they were that there were caricature artists and a magician at our cocktail hour and reception! Tina and her staff made our wedding day wonderful!

Second Song has a great process to make sure you have input into the music selection at your wedding! Bryan was super helpful in reviewing our preferences/playlists and was very clear that he wanted the day to be about us! Bryan did a great job including our preferences while also making sure that he didn't just follow our playlist if the wedding guest weren't loving it or the vibe was different than the songs we selected. We had the best time at our wedding and we appreciate Bryan for all his hard work!!

I am so happy to write a review for Seth and his team! From the very beginning, Seth has been a pleasure to work with. The first meeting I was very impressed by how he had researched the wedding venue and its layout so that he could ask us what our thoughts were on setup/DJ location placement etc. Our second meeting was then focused on how to set up the wedding playlist using the Vibo app. The app is fantastic, and an excellent way to keep track of the songs you wish to have played at certain time points (bridal processional, grand entrance, pre-ceremony, etc.). In the app you can request starting timepoints and leave extra notes for Seth to look over weeks before the wedding. Aside from these aspects, Seth went above and beyond to help us with other non-music related aspects of the wedding such as our wedding slideshow (that he helped give us step by step instructions so that the quality of the slideshow would be good for when it was projected on the wall of venue). He also created a mashup for my husband to dance with his mom ("Dance with me" mixed with "Just Dance"; it was amazing!). Even during the week of the wedding, when I had a mini-freak out, he was so kind and understanding. In the end, I 100% recommend Seth (and Matt too! He was at the Photo Booth, and he was so kind and was ready to help folks if any technical help was needed)! Seth's team is professional, kind, and has great attention to detail; if you can, book DJ Seth and his team for your wedding!

Tiffany was an incredible makeup artist for my wedding. I was very picky with choosing my MUA and when I saw Tiffany’s work I knew I had found the right artist. She matched my vision completely and gave me makeup that felt like me but enhanced. I felt so beautiful and confident. Tiffany was so sweet and listened to my every need! Her communication before during and after the wedding was also so clear and organized. Could not recommend Tiffany enough!

Randall de Leon Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (51 reviews)
  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves South El Monte, CA

Photography has always been a lifelong passion of mine, I picked up my first camera as a gift from my dad when I was 14 years old. Never in a million years would I have thought that my lifelong hobby could eventually become my career. I focused on my future, working my way through college and grad school to achieve my license to practice, but a part of me realized that I wanted to pursue a career that allowed me to go on adventures and meet a lot of new people. So in 2019, I took that risk, changed my hours from full time to part time and put more focus on my photography. I booked my first gig later that year and have never looked back.

Awarded Best of Zola
Randall was recommended by our videographer (Call it Captivation Films, who we recommend). We really enjoyed his gallery and how natural his photos looked. We spoke to a few other photographers before him, but during our 1st video meeting he vibed well with us; he and I are both Fil-Am with history of working with pediatric patients (he as a PTA, me as a RN), and he and my husband shared a love for the same teams (Dodgers and Lakers). We were quick to book him after our meeting and are extremely happy with our decision to work with him! The photography packages he offers and his prices are amazing. Randall was great with communication and with providing us with recommendations (ie what to bring for flat lay, helping us pose, etc) prior to and day of the wedding. He did a site tour of our venue where we got to meet him and his kids in person. Prior to the ceremony, Randall worked with me, while the 2nd photographer worked with my husband. My husband said that the 2nd photographer fitted in well like one of the boys. He gave us a preview of the photos 1 week after our wedding and the full gallery of our wedding about 8-9 weeks after our wedding. We are so happy with all the photos! They are so beautiful and timeless, and they captured the essence of our wedding so well. **If you're looking for a photographer, Randall is your guy! I did the research for you :) Book him now! **

Can't say enough about the quality of James's work, his attention to detail, his professionalism, and curating the best dance party experience at our wedding!! From start to finish he was extremely prepared and provided us with all the materials needed to organize the music and run of show. As both DJ and MC, James truly went the extra mile to make our day run seamlessly, and made us feel so special. He was even accommodating to our last minute music requests and was very patient with us. In addition to being extremely professional, prepared, and organized, he is such a down-to-earth and kind, genuine person. He even captured some videos of our first dance and grand entrance that we wouldn't have had otherwise because we didn't have a videographer. This was so thoughtful and truly above and beyond! We personally added on the photo booth option and are glad we did, as it was a hit. His rates were very reasonable as well especially for the package we got. Everyone raved about James and the music. He made our wedding day exactly the party we hoped for - the most fun we've ever had! Highly recommend James & All The Above Events for your next wedding or big event.

No stress, no pressure—just genuine enthusiasm to help us make it happen. Lindsey was incredible. Even though we were fairly on top of everything, she guided us with clarity, creativity, and care. When plans shifted, she adjusted seamlessly and brought everything together in a way that felt effortless (though we know it wasn’t!). Even when the downtown curfew popped up the week of our wedding, the team took every curveball in stride and made sure we felt cared for from start to finish.

Awarded Best of Zola
I’m not even sure where to begin to describe how amazing Events by McKenna is at what they do!! McKenna is the most kind, helpful, and enthusiastic person to assist you during such an important time in your life. She made sure everything went perfectly on our wedding day and every day leading up to it! When we first started our wedding planning journey, we only knew where we wanted to have it, and due to the venue location not regularly being used for weddings, we needed to outsource vendors for everything. That's where McKenna came in and helped us out by hand-picking every vendor that she knew would provide the exact things we were looking for. From catering, florals, furniture rentals, DJ, and all the little details, she knew who would be perfect for the job and she was right about every single one! Every time we had a question or a crazy idea, she had an answer right away and she would do everything she could to make it happen. One thing that we were really hoping for was getting a disco ball above our dance floor, but since we were outdoors, it wasn’t looking promising. McKenna was the one who made sure that we got our disco ball, and it was absolutely perfect! That’s just one example of the many ways McKenna ensured our dream wedding would become a reality. On the day of, McKenna and her team were so efficient and handled everything so that my husband and I could relax and focus on ourselves. We got to our venue and everything was already done and ready to start the day! McKenna was amazing at time management throughout the day, and she was so helpful to not only us, but our families, wedding party and guests as well. Everything went perfectly on schedule and all the crazy ideas that we had came to life with no issues! It was truly the best day of our lives and it wouldn’t have been possible without McKenna’s help! I could write so much more on how incredible Events by McKenna is, but to sum it all up, they are the best choice for your wedding planning and coordinating needs and you will not regret choosing them for your big day!!

Peter from Bedrosian Photo was an absolute pleasure to work with on our wedding day. He didn't get in our way at all, allowing us to enjoy the moment, but still captured all the standard posed shots as well as incredible candid moments that we didn't even realize he was capturing. The quality of his work is amazing - it's so clean and the attention to detail is incredible. He really nailed capturing all the in-between moments that most photographers claim they can get but often miss. Peter and his entire video team were a well-oiled machine, working seamlessly together to deliver a final product that feels more like watching a sports team than a typical photo/video team. We couldn't be happier with the memories they helped us create on our special day.

The Moon Units: Weddings & Events 
Rating: 5.0 (32 reviews)

  • Starts at $3,900
  • Serves South El Monte, CA

Hi, we're The Moon Units! We're known throughout California for our 650+ song list, our authentic on-stage chemistry, and performances that clients have called "better than the original bands" that recorded the songs. And because we're a real band, we offer prices that are just a fraction of what corporate booking agencies charge. We can't wait to play for you!

Awarded Best of Zola
When I say that Dylan and the Moon Units MADE our wedding, I am not exaggerating. They not only delivered, the exceeded our already high expectations in every way possible. Music was extremely important for my husband and me, and we knew immediately that we wanted a live band to elevate the evening. We found Dylan and the Moon Units' information online, and after finding that they were very within our budget we reached out and Dylan invited us to one of their gigs in Hollywood. We loved their vibe and booked them. We asked Dylan to play both our ceremony and our reception, as well as play preset playlists for our pre-ceremony and cocktail hour. Now, I must admit, because music was so important for my husband and my special day, we had *very* specific ideas for what we wanted. Dylan was extremely communicative, answering all of my extremely needy and detailed emails in a timely manner and doing everything he could to reassure me that we were in good hands. We made selections from the list of songs they knew, and also asked them to learn about 10 new songs for us, ranging from unique arrangements of existing songs to deep cuts from 90's movies. Dylan's communication was warm, expeditious, and professional, and I felt really well taken care of. At our wedding, though, is where they exceeded our expectations. The live music they played was amazing, and set the tone for our wedding in the exact way we were hoping for. At the reception, they kept the energy up with a perfectly curated playlist of our requests (and we had quite a lot!) songs they knew would keep the party going. Their song choices appealed to the older crowd as well as the Millennial crowd. Dylan even help me set up a surprise performance for my husband, where I sang one of this favorite songs ("Go Cubs Go") with the backing of the Moon Units band. It was an incredibly special moment. And creating special moments was what Dylan and the Moon Units did best. Somehow, they managed to keep the dance floor packed the entire evening. Months after our wedding, our guests have continuously called out Dylan and the Moon Units as an absolute highlight of our wedding, saying that it was musically one of the best weddings they have ever been to. All-in-all, I cannot recommend Dylan and the Moon Units enough. As someone who was VERY specific about the music at my wedding, they exceeded all of our expectations. Book them for your wedding ASAP - you will not be disappointed.

Awarded Best of Zola
I was almost not going to choose Ingrid as a wedding coordinator and that would have been one of my biggest regrets as a bride for my wedding. I actually had already put a small deposit down for another wedding coordinator, but once I met Ingrid, she stole my heart. She was my calm to my storm, my ying to my yang, my Robin to my Batman…etc Ingrid is not only an amazing wedding coordinator, but she is also an amazing wedding officiant. She took our love story and crazy ceremony ideas (such as taking a shot with us along with our guests before we sealed the deal or taping our ring box underneath one of the chairs for a surprise ring bearer) and created the ceremony of our dreams. To hear from multiple guests that it was the best ceremony they attended was the best compliment we could receive because the ceremony is the most important part of a wedding. It was my favorite part of my wedding. Then she can amazingly switch gears from officiant to wedding coordinator and rock that too. She can do it all (literally). I always have other couples tell us that their wedding day goes by very fast and they didn’t really get to enjoy all the little things. However, my husband and I felt like our special day did not go by so fast and we most definitely got to enjoy the little things mainly because Ingrid took care of everything behind the scenes that no one sees. She created an amazing timeline for us, took charge of our vendors, made sure we were right on schedule with everything, was super communicative along the way… the list goes on and on. She is everything you would want in a wedding coordinator. I am very sad I won’t get to work with her anymore unless I get married again lol, but I would recommend her to anyone I know and hopefully get to see her in action again.

If you are a couple in search of a wedding planner, look no further. Tavi (pronounced Tevi, like Chevy) is an incredible planner with an amazing eye for details. She’s very thorough, detail oriented, kind, funny and easy to work with. The perfect person to help you through one of the most stressful times of your life. She really took a lot off of our plate, and took EXCELLENT care of us on our wedding day. Our wedding day was actually perfect and I attribute much of the success of the day to her and her wonderful assistant Jessica. We also added on the design option, and she really brought our vision to life. She designed all of our stationary for us, printed it, and had each personalized card for every guest. The florist she reccomended Allison (The Occupied Vase) just absolutely nailed it. So many compliments and I felt very well taken care of. Not to mention, our venue made a huge mistake and booked another event during our wedding rehearsal and she rearranged her life to be there for us at a way earlier time (none of us wanted to be there so early, but the venue gave us no choice). And of course she was there smiling, never complaining, in such a good mood putting us all at ease, and running a very successful rehearsal for us. So, even if you don’t think you need a planner, you should highly consider spending the money to have someone who is a complete professional, who is always early, who is dedicated to your wedding 100%, (even when you don’t always have time to be). We love Tavi!! She rocks!!! :)

Checkout my LinkTree for upcoming events, more reviews, and to visit my instagram. Let's team up and create memories! It is important for me to articulate, that I serve ALL PEOPLE EQUITABLY!! However, I do want to note that I do require that the couple has a Day of Coordinator (not the venue coordinator as they are different). Otherwise, I will also charge for coordination services as that puts the burden of day of logistics on the DJ.

DJ Trey is THE BEST DJ!!! I wish we had even more time on the dance floor to keep letting him mix because he’s a genuinely fantastic DJ! Not just a DJ who sets up an iPhone or Spotify and lets it ride mindlessly, but a DJ who reads the crowd, takes input from the bride and groom, and uses his skill and best judgement to provide music that gets everyone on the dance floor. Literally everyone at our wedding was on their feet for dancing and loved all the music DJ Trey played! He also was fantastic in making sure all of the music played on their appropriate cues and was well-prepared. He was great to work with for our wedding and we can’t wait to throw another party just so we have an excuse to use DJ Trey again!

Our experience with Dart Collective was extremely positive, and I would definitely recommend them. Santiago's communication was top-notch, and their thorough questionnaire made me feel really taken care of. We had a few last minute changes that required adding on some equipment, and Santiago handled it swiftly. I really appreciated the vendors that eliminated added stress by being prompt and responsive, so thank you Santiago! Some Pros from the night: - I often find wedding DJs to be way too cheesy/hammy or super low-energy and disinterested. Our DJ was lively and engaged but not over the top, it was perfect. I also appreciated how well he was dressed! - My Do Not Play list was loooooong and they stuck to it! - I definitely felt like he read the room and switched up the vibe as needed - The DJ booth set up was a pleasant surprise - it was really cool! I wasn't expecting more than just a table and black table cloth. But the nice equipment and the vinyl records on display really added a lot and complimented the vintage feel of the space. Guests noticed and were complimentary, too! Cons: -Only one "con" and it's nothing major, but we did opt for the live musician accompanists and I'm not sure it was worth the added cost. I was expecting the live music aspect to bring some additional energy, but they actually were pretty subdued and hung back by the speaker. I'm honestly not certain everyone even noticed they were there.

Carissa is truly the MVP of our dream wedding. She made my vision come to life and allowed me to actually ENJOY the day, because she held everything together so seamlessly. From our very first meeting, Carissa showed incredible professionalism — she is organized, always ahead of schedule, and a true trooper who constantly reminded me that I was in good hands and that everything would turn out beautifully. Throughout the planning process, Carissa was there every step of the way: from designing the vibe, brainstorming stationery ideas, narrowing down floral options, and helping with venue and vendor selection, to managing the actual flow of the wedding. You think you know what you want — until you’re faced with ten different options and endless Pinterest posts! Carissa was my calm guide in those moments. She patiently walked me through decisions, helped me focus on what mattered most, and gave thoughtful, supportive advice while always respecting my final choice. One of the things I appreciated most was how she reminded us that this was OUR day, and that we should experience it fully. She built the itinerary to include intentional moments of privacy, so we could process everything and make lasting memories together. On the wedding day itself, Carissa and her assistant Helena were with us every moment — directing us where to go and what to do so we didn’t have to think about logistics. She even prepared little cards for our wedding party with key times and tasks, so everyone knew exactly what to expect. When last-minute needs came up (as they always do), Carissa was like a fairy godmother — somehow making everything appear and solving problems before we even had the chance to stress. Overall, Carissa is THE wedding planner if you want your dream wedding. She doesn’t just help you execute your vision — she helps you build it, piece by piece, with incredible care and expertise. Her network of vendors is also fantastic, which saved us so much time and stress. Thanks to her, we ended up with an incredible team, including a handroll ice cream cart that was such a hit! If you want a planner who is professional, organized, supportive, and truly dedicated to giving you the best day of your life — Carissa is the one.

From start to finish, working with Aladdin Films was a great experience. Ali and his teammate responded to our messages right away and were always honest about what they could deliver, which meant a lot to us. On the wedding day, they were flexible when we needed to change locations and showed real dedication to their work. Despite having limited time for filming and photos, they brought serious creativity to everything they captured. We felt like they genuinely cared about making our day special, and we'll definitely be recommending them to friends and family.

Victoria and her team are an absolute pleasure to work with! They made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and were able to give us amazing advice on what they wanted to capture and always asked if we wanted anything more. Every conversation/consultation we had with Victoria, gave me the reassurance that Cruzio Studios was the right fit for us. She sent us a preview collection within 3 days of our wedding with amazing and stunning photos. We couldn’t have asked for anyone better to shoot our engagement and wedding. Thank you for everything and we definitely recommend choosing Cruzio Studios to capture your special event!

Michelle's floral design brought our love story to life. She is a true master of her craft. Her understanding of design, and I mean true design (placement, weight, balance, materials, etc) created the wedding floral design of our dreams. She’s the kind of artist who listens to your vision and elevates it tenfold. I wish I could get married all over again just to work with Michelle.

I will travel Southern California for your love story, from San Diego to LA, to Santa Barbara. My style is documentary and photojournalistic with a bit of an editorial and creative charm. I do not bend and sway with the trends of the current day, instead I focus on your unique wedding day to capture timeless imagery. As the moments unfold before me, I will help tell your story. I want you to look back on your images and be able to still feel the emotions within them for decades to come, truly.

From start to finish, working with Fatima was an absolute dream. After researching countless photographers online, she was my number one choice! I booked our elopement just three months in advance and was so relieved she was available. Throughout the whole process she was so incredibly kind, professional and thoughtful that, despite our short timeline, we were able to feel at ease. My (now) husband and I are both quite shy in front of the camera and were worried that we might look stiff, but Fatima was able to quell those worries and capture us exactly how we had hoped - in a very natural and organic light. All in all, Fatima went above and beyond for us in so many ways - from setting up a last minute meeting the week before to go over details (and ease my anxiety) to unexpectedly serving as our witness! She even sent us our full gallery a few weeks earlier than we had expected. We are so pleased with how everything turned out and so grateful to have worked with such a talented artist (and AMAZING human). We'll definitely be booking Fatima for our next milestones 3

From the moment we booked LA Digital Photo [ Photo Video DJ/MC Photo Booth ] for our wedding, we knew we were in good hands. The communication and support they provided throughout the entire process was amazing - they gave us clear direction every step of the way. On the day of our wedding, their photography and crowd work was truly top-notch. At one point, the photographer spontaneously loaded up photos he had already taken during the reception to share with all of our friends and family - it was an unexpected and beautiful surprise that everyone loved! All of our guests were fascinated by the amazing pictures he captured of them. I'll admit, I was a bit skeptical at first since they fit within our budget, but my goodness, they exceeded all of our expectations. You will not regret booking LA Digital Photo [ Photo Video DJ/MC Photo Booth ] - they are truly amazing and will make your wedding day even more special!

I hired Maria to be my florist and my wedding coordinator. This was her first time being a coordinator, you would not have been able to tell that. Everything was perfect. Her communication and organization is excellent. She had a timeline written out which she followed to a tee. I wasn't even too nervous the day of the wedding. Maria had it all figured out and made me feel relaxed and confident in her skills. She didn't disappoint! With the flowers, Maria understood the vision I wanted for my flowers (no roses lol). I trusted her enough to pick out the flowers she thought would work. When I saw them for the first time, I cried... She got it exactly right! I loved my bouquet of orange Calla Lilies! My whole wedding was magical and one of the biggest reasons was because of Maria!
