I usually like to plan out events and organize gatherings but man, when I tell you that weddings are just different!

I knew I wanted to get a wedding planner for at least the month of + wedding day and that’s when we found the LVLF team. We hired the LVLF team about a year before our wedding and the only thing I regret was not hiring them sooner! Although we only booked for the month of + wedding day, throughout the whole year of planning, Chiell (founder) and Makayla (lead planner) were so communicative and helpful, it was like having moral support throughout the planning process, which was just super helpful and I appreciate that so greatly.

My husband and I booked all the vendors ourselves, but they helped us find some vendors that were close to us and the venue which was a huge help. For example, I had a hard time finding box stands for our acrylic signs and I will never get over how quick Makayla was to help me find a vendor and book them right away. And they came out perfect!

When it came to the month before the wedding, they just executed everything seamlessly. Being a “Type A” bride that likes to be in control of everything (lol), I thought I would have a hard time letting go, but I trusted them so much and they just did an absolutely amazing job. No words can truly express how happy my husband and I were with the outcome of our church ceremony & reception. We even had so many guests tell us how effortless the flow was throughout the whole wedding day and I just kept saying “it’s because we truly have the best team!”

I cannot thank the LVLF team enough for helping create such an unforgettable and beautiful wedding day for us. We truly could not have done it without them. They are truly such caring, organized, and wonderful individuals and I am telling you, you are in the BEST hands for your wedding day booking with them. The day was just perfect and that was because of them. Thank you guys SO much for everything!

If you told us ahead of time that our wedding day would include running 40 minutes behind schedule, a handful of unexpected hiccups, and even my dress literally ripping right before the grand entrance, we probably would’ve panicked. It sounds like the setup for a chaotic day. As a kid, I watched The Wedding Planner with Jennifer Lopez and was always amazed by the way she handled absolute chaos with total grace. Makayla reminded me of that in the best way. Instead of things spiraling, she and the LVLF team kept everything calm, handled every curveball effortlessly, and somehow it still ended up being the SMOOTHEST, most beautifully executed wedding we could have imagined.

When we first met Makayla, we could instantly tell she was the kind of person who is always on top of her game, and that first impression ended up being completely true. It honestly felt like having a really good friend there who just happened to be extremely talented and organized at what she does.

And her team was just as amazing. And to future brides and grooms, let me emphasize how important this is. Makayla and her team were ALWAYS visible or nearby at the perfect times, ready to help with anything before we even had to ask. I’ve been to weddings where brides get mini panic attacks because they can’t find someone from their coordinating team in crucial moments, and that stress can snowball so quickly. You don’t realize how essential that support is until you’re the one getting married. We never felt alone, overwhelmed, or unsure of what to do next because someone from her team was always right there checking in, supporting us, and keeping everything flowing. It made the day feel safe, smooth, and somehow so relaxed despite everything happening around us.

We started the day about 40 minutes behind because of a few unexpected things that popped up. At one point my dress even ripped right before the grand entrance (sorry for making you worry!), but it got fixed quickly and Makayla and her team kept everything calm and got us right back on track without ever making us feel rushed. We still got to do every single thing we wanted, especially the moments that mattered most. One of our biggest priorities was actually being present at cocktail hour with our guests, and we got to be there, socialize, take photos, and really soak it all in. It felt like such a gift.

And we were shocked that we were actually full too. We genuinely got to eat and enjoy our food, which is something everyone warns couples never get to do. We didn’t feel hungry or drained at all, and that was completely thanks to how well her team managed the pacing of the day.

Since the wedding, as we’ve been catching up with friends and family, they’ve all been saying the same thing. So many told us it was the second BEST wedding they’ve ever been to, right after their own. They talked about how beautifully everything was executed, how smooth the day felt from beginning to end, and how fun it was the entire time. Hearing that meant so much to us, and we know a huge part of that was because of Makayla and her entire team handling everything so flawlessly behind the scenes.

We’re genuinely so grateful for them. They made us feel supported, cared for, and fully present on a day that could’ve easily felt overwhelming. We would choose them again without hesitation. Thank you Makayla and LVLF team!!!

Makayla and her team were AMAZING! She helped keep us on track for the months leading up to the wedding and our wedding day was perfect! Couldn’t of asked for a better team. Our day went just how we wanted and was beautiful. They gave us a photo/video album of our day as well which was so fun to look back at. Makayla kept us on time and made sure everything went smoothly.

Wow. There are not enough words in the world to describe the above and beyond level of effort Love & Life Events provided for our wedding. Their level of touch was perfect and we never had a doubt that things would go right the day of.

From the beginning, Makayla was engaged, thoughtful, and very professional with the planning calls. Her questions were on point and made us feel very confident about the wedding after each one. When it came down to the final few calls, 2-4 weeks out, her team made sure they had everything covered!

When it came to the day of her team handled everything and them some. This made it very easy on the wedding party to just be present! They always kept their cool and even made sure to keep us cool by bringing us water! They even took some amazing behind the scenes photos as they were always present during big moments and were quick with sharing the digital album with us the a few days after.

The Love and Life Events team really made the wedding exactly what everyone says, "the best day of your life" and I will always be grateful for their support and amazing services.

Thank you to Makayla, Dalavy, Emily & Angeline!

Makayla & her team were absolutely amazing. I am a Type A person, so it is hard for me to relax and not micromanage, but Makayla & her team helped me actually enjoy my wedding day. My husband and I would hire them again for any event a million times over. The best thing we could have done for ourselves was have them coordinating & helping me plan. I would have forgotten so much if it wasn't for them. 10000/10!!! We love you guys!

My wife and I couldn’t be happier with the incredible experience we had working with LVLF for our wedding! From start to finish, Chiell was absolutely lovely - her communication was impeccable, and she truly made us feel supported throughout the planning process, even as we planned our LA wedding while we were across the world in Australia.

Where LVLF really shone was in the lead-up to our wedding day. They expertly coordinated with all of our vendors, ensuring that every small detail was in place. On the actual day, they were lifesavers - we didn’t have to think about a single thing, which allowed us to fully relax and enjoy every moment of our wedding. Even when things didn’t go according to plan, they handled everything behind the scenes and told us after everything was resolved so we didn't have to worry about it.

We’d also like to give a special shoutout to Makayla, who was incredibly clear, organized, and communicative, and to Angelica, who went above and beyond to make sure my 92-year-old grandma was cared for, comfortable, and well-fed.

Thanks to LVLF, our proudly Indonesian-Filipino wedding day was everything we dreamed of and more. We wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for a team that’s professional, compassionate, and truly committed to making your day perfect. Thank you, LVLF!

I decided to book LVLF for my November wedding at Rancho Las Lomas as my day of coordinator, and I’m so glad I decided to have the team there with me. I’m so grateful for Chiell and her team supporting me before my wedding and during my wedding. I seriously didn’t have to worry about a thing the day of our wedding and the team took care of every situation that popped up. They took care of everything from contacting my vendors before the wedding, keeping in touch with vendors, directing guests, helping set up the venue with decor that I brought, and even loaded up cars at the end of the night. They were incredibly organized, thoughtful, and always kept us on track throughout the day of the wedding process and before. One of the highlights of this team is their familiarity with Rancho Las Lomas, they knew what they had to do beforehand and carried everything out flawlessly (especially considering the size of this venue). The team even made sure to carry out the vision that I had in my head, and did a better job than what I could have imagined. They all paid attention to the little details that I even would have missed, this team is truly impressive. I will forever recommend LVLF to anyone that I know that is having an upcoming wedding, they are seriously the greatest team ever. If you’re looking for a wedding coordinator to carry out your dream wedding, LVLF is the team for you.

Working with love and life events as our wedding coordinator was an absolute dream! From our very first meeting, it was clear that chiell is incredibly organized, detail-oriented, and committed to making the day perfect. Chiell and her team, were on top of every detail, ensuring nothing was overlooked.

Love and life events helped me stay calm and focused while managing so many moving parts allowed us to relax and truly enjoy our big day without any stress.

If you’re looking for someone who will keep everything organized, on track, and stress-free, choose love and life events as a wedding coordinator is all you need ! They truly help you bring your wedding to life while keeping the process enjoyable and worry-free! We are so grateful to this amazing team for helping us create a day we will cherish forever!

We met with a variety of planning vendors but after we met with Chiell, she understood what we were looking for and made sure that the process was very easy. At first, we were very stressed because of our constrained timeline, but Chiell ensured us every step of the way to make our dream wedding come to life. The rest of her team, Dalavy and Makayla, were also super helpful. They kept in communication with us every step of the way, anytime we needed anything, we simply could just text or message them and get a quick response. We were blown away with the final results! Also, during the reception, they stuck with us every step of the way and made sure we had everything we needed that night. We highly recommend Love and Life events for any couple looking for a professional yet friendly team of planners to get you to and through your special day.

Emily truly took the stress out of wedding planning. She's responsive, detail oriented, and took ownership of the entire process. My fiance and I had a vision in mind when we started and she made it all happen. Her team also did a fantastic job making sure our special day went by without a hitch. Thank you, Emily and team!
