Paula is truly incredible and exceeded all expectations for us as a wedding planner. We worked with her for over a year planning our wedding and we couldn’t have imagined doing it without her. Paula continuously goes above and beyond and makes you feel as if you are her only client. She is responsible and very communicative, quickly answering any questions that came up over the year. She has been working in the industry in orange county for over a decade and seems to know and get along with everyone. She was a constant advocate for us dealing with vendors and making sure our needs were met first. She also worked very well balancing family relationships throughout our year of planning and especially on our wedding day. I was nervous for the wedding day because of my family dynamic and Paula took over everything, so I was stress-free. My friends and family who interacted with her on our wedding day were blown away by how kind and calm she was, while still making sure everything went according to plan. She has such great energy during a time that can be stressful and difficult ( and fun) and we are so grateful to have found her. I would recommend Paula to any bride or groom getting married in orange county.

We used Paula as the wedding planner for our daughter’s wedding last summer, and she helped create a magical event. She’s very organized, responds immediately to any questions, listens and provides helpful and creative input, is always prompt, and has amazing vendors at her fingertips. Most importantly, Paula’s calm and pleasant demeanor takes most of the stress out of the whole process. On the day of the event, she unobtrusively works behind the scenes to make sure everything goes smoothly and is just how you envisioned. In short, Paula is an excellent wedding planner and I would very highly recommend her!

We cannot thank Paula enough for all the effort and expertise she brought to our special day. It was a fairy tale wedding that most could only dream of having for themselves, and we still can't believe it was ours. From the moment we checked into the Montage on Friday night until we checked out on Sunday morning it was completely perfect - mostly due to Paula's management. Every vendor she recommended delivered, logistics were flawless, and every guest had fun. So many guests have told us it was the "best event" or "best wedding" they have ever attended - everything "made sense," was "on time," turned out "unbelievably beautiful." She makes it happen!

Paula was everything we could have asked for in a wedding planner, and MORE! Our wedding day turned out perfectly and we could not have done it without Paula. She was always there for us when we needed her, helped us choose great vendors, kept everything very organized and easy to understand and follow, and made sure everything went as planned on the big day. We did not have to worry about anything on our big day, we knew Paula had everything under control at all times. She was professional and fun and so easy to work with. Her experience, creativity, and expertise in the wedding industry is unmatched. She made us feel we were her only clients from the day we hired her. We're so happy to have worked with Paula for our dream wedding and we HIGHLY recommend her, especially for Pelican Hill, where we were married.

If you want the wedding of your dreams Paula with Champagne taste is the one to plan it. I met with several different planners before finding Paula. She invited us to her beautiful home so we could see a slideshow of different weddings that she has done and get a peek at the possibilities of what ours might look like. I was completely blown away. The slideshows I saw got me giddy about my own wedding and my hubby and I just had to have her. From the moment we signed contract, she wasted no time in getting started- right away giving me a big binder personalized to me and perfectly organized with all of the things a bride needs to think about while planning a wedding. Paula knows all the best vendors, and has close relationships with them, which is great for you as a client because she gets you a good price- and has top priority. She has such great attention to detail and goes above and beyond to make sure everything is perfect. Paula and I emailed each other several times a day discussing all kinds of things- such as ideas for what to get my bridesmaids, making sure we were staying on budget, music, etc.
My wedding was an absolute fairytale that I wish I could relive over and over. Every one of our friends said our wedding was the best wedding they had ever been to. I would give anything to have the same day again because it was definitely the best day of my life, and I have Paula to thank for it. You couldn't possibly be disappointed choosing her to plan your wedding and make it just as special. She will make sure it is beyond perfect! Definitely Champagne Taste!!

Paula Laskelle is the best wedding planner out there.

From the moment I spoke to Paula, I knew she was the one. There is something about her that puts you at ease. Her gentle way never changes, even in the most stressful of times, which is priceless for a stressed bride.

Paula's hard work and knowledge is unparalleled. Paula has been doing this a long time and there is nothing she hasn't seen. She has an answer to every problem. You'll know you have someone you can rely on it to make sure everything goes perfect.

Paula is SO responsive. I emailed her all hours of day and night every day and she almost always responded immediately. Paula spoke to me weekends and holidays, even at times when I told her she should take time off. It was always her priority to make sure that she was there for me and helping me.

My wedding was perfect. Majestic. Breathtaking. A blast. Everything went off without a hitch. Everyone at the wedding said it was the best wedding they had ever attended. I owe that to Paula.

Paula worked so hard to make sure that my day was perfect. I never had to speak to vendors - she set everything up. She was everywhere at once and yet not noticeable to my guests. My entire bridal party commented what a wonderful planner she is. My sister got married last year and her biggest regret is that she didn't know Paula.

Paula is the smartest decision you'll make. There is a reason she has a reputation for being the best wedding planner in Orange County OC: she IS.

I would definitely recommend Paula to any new couple planning their wedding! Being a bride that lived overseas in Asia and planning a wedding in California, Paula has made the process so easy and stress-free. Paula was beyond accommodating, responding back to me immediately regardless of what hour of the day it was. She answered all my questions (and there were many many questions) to handling most of the interactions with vendors given the time difference and difficulties of being halfway around the world. When we made our trip for the first time to see the venue and meet some of the vendors, Paula accompanied us the entire way and stepped in to ask the important questions that only a wedding planner of her experience and professionalism would know which we would not think of. Being that we lived overseas Paula graciously let us send some of our wedding accessories and favors to her house and helped to check to make sure they were right and bring them to the wedding. Paula was always the nicest and sweetest and always made us feel calm even during stressful times. She never came across as pushy and was always respectable of our decisions while offering her professional opinion. She was extremely well organized and always made sure to let us know exactly what was going on. Honestly one of the best parts of the wedding was working with Paula and having her support and guide us through the entire way. We had the wedding we always wanted and in a large part we have Paula to thank for it!

Stop looking you have just found the best wedding planner ever!!! Amazing doesn't even come close to describing Paula, she is the absolute best at what she does. We were so grateful that we found her, she helped us plan what our friends and family call "The Best Wedding EVER" and we would certainly agree. It was amazing! We were planning an out of state wedding and knew nothing about the area or any vendors. We only flew to California once during the process to meet with Paula and pick our venue, the rest was done over the phone or through email and it worked out fantastically. No ball was dropped. Our wedding was better than anything I could have dreamed up and all within our budget. Her vendors are the industry's best and along with Paula, the most professional and fun people you'll encounter during the process. Paula made the entire planning process EASY and stress free. She always keeps your budget in mind and has the best ideas. One tip for any bride, let Paula work her magic and guide you along. No need for your inner bridezilla to creep out. Paula will take care of you and make your wedding THE BEST WEDDING EVER!!! We love and adore Paula. The incredible memories that we have of our special day always include her. Without her it would have been just another wedding. She is something special.

Hiring Paula was the best decision we've ever made! She is so warm, friendly and professional! She is always always a phone call away, she definitely took out 99.9% of stress off of me! We love Paula! Just can't have enough of her warmness! We definitely think she is the best wedding planner in LA!

There was never a shortage of attention to detail with Paula and her team. She was always calm, efficient, and professional. Everyone in the community had great things to say and now so do I! I am so glad that we chose Paula as our wedding coordinator. There were so many things that we would never have considered, and Paula, being the seasoned pro that she is, always had a plan of action. Our wedding was really a magical evening, and as the bride I was happy to have Paula at the helm because I was comforted knowing that things were under control.
