Wedding Planners in Santa Monica

I have worked with Simply Natural Events (SNE) for my wedding in 2015 and a 10-year business anniversary this past June 2018. Collaborating with Annette and her team have made planning and organization a smooth and enjoyable process. The event design suggestions they offer are creative and pleasing. One of the things I most appreciate is how SNE meets your budget or comes under it. I look forward to future events with them. Annette, et al go above and beyond in giving a fun experience for you and your guests.

Stacey was fantastic. She helped us accomplish exactly what we were looking for. My wife and I are two busy professionals and didnt have lots of time for planning our dream wedding, but with Stacey, we were able to give her some general ideas and with her vision, patience, and talents she was able to bring to life exactly what we were looking for. She literally took care of everything for us and we certainly could not have done it without her. She is the BEST!! Thank you SO MUCH!! With Love, Taylor and Lindsey

Absolutely one of the most professional coordinators in the business she is the best!!!

Nam and his team coordinated the wedding of my dreams. Due to Covid we had to cancel our initial wedding date and move it up an entire year. Not only did we move the date but we changed venues entirely and had to cut our guest list down from 160 to 100. The new venue was my parent's backyard. He made me feel at ease and communicated with all my vendors. The wedding planning was a breeze and Nam hooked me up with the best vendors and the best prices. I valued his advice so much and I gave him full artistic license on the decor and design with just a few of the ideas I initially gave him. Rosie, his assistant was incredible on the day of our wedding. I had zero stress as the bride and I was even able to sleep in, grab myself breakfast down the street from our hotel and take my time getting ready because I knew she had everything all figured out. Since the venue was now at my parent's house I was worried about all the logistics of moving all the vendors, electrical concerns, set up etc. Nam and his team TRANSFORMED my parent's backyard. It looked like an Italian villa. Seriously, do not look anywhere else, Modern LA Weddings is worth the investment and will be the best vendor you can hire for your wedding or event.

Nicole planned 2 huge events for me: my wedding(150 guests) and my business' grand opening party(approx. 115 people). I get emotional when I think about how much she has helped make those 2 very important days so perfect! My wedding was in Mexico and Nicole made every detail perfect. From the check in guests were greeted with a drink and a goodie bag (all courtesy of Nicole), to a very organized 4 days of activities. My flowers and décor were dreamy-I NEVER would have been able to pull those together myself. She was very organized and focused. Nicole is a "tell you like it is" kinda gal. I love that about her and appreciate her honesty. For my studio's grand opening she knocked it out of the park again! So many cute touches and details, clients were raving about how beautiful the space looked. I have recommended Nicole to several friends who have used her for weddings and they are all completely happy with her. She has done everything from huge mega-budget weddings to smaller, intimate ones and they all have the same result: a happy bride with a gorgeous wedding.

We really can’t thank Margaux enough for the amazing job she did bringing our wedding dreams to life. She ran with every wild idea we had and executed it to perfection. Our wedding weekend looked amazing and felt amazing. We were able to truly enjoy the weekend stress-free because of her organization and commitment. She was also such a joy to work with - we miss her not talking to her everyday!!

These ladies are totally pro! Had they not been there to lead us through the heavy task of decision making & weighing options, my husband and I would have absolutely lost it! They kept everything in order for us. One of the things I needed the most help with was the look and feel of our reception room to include the dining tables, and I am happy that we chose to work with this awesome team. They helped us and gave so many great tips and invaluable insights. On the big day, everything was perfect- the room and the tables looked STUNNING. They made sure it all went without a hitch. Thanks again for everything and for making our wedding a dream come true!

Where do I even start! Having Kathryn as my wedding planner was the BEST decision I made during the wedding planning process. From the moment I started working with her, I could tell how detailed and organized she was—all of my “type-A anxiety” instantly faded away. She was always on top of everything and had answers/solutions to all my questions. Her positivity, work ethic and willingness to help was so amazing. She always had my back, was available for calls, and responded quickly. My favorite part of working with her was her connection/relationship with vendors— she was able to get us deals and recommended some of the best people in the business and for that I am forever grateful. Her guidance made our wedding absolutely perfect and there isn’t one thing I would’ve changed— she turned my vision into a reality! Thank you Kathryn and the TLE team for helping me execute the wedding of my dreams!

Sarah was the most amazing florist to work with. We found her last minute just a few weeks before our wedding and from the start she listened, understood our vision and brought it to life...and it was even more beautiful that we had anticipated. She has impeccable taste and understands her clientele. Her bouquets were the most stunning I have every seen. She is a true professional and I have so much admiration and respect for her. Highly recommend Sarah. We were truly lucky for have the pleasure of her services. Incredibly grateful for everything :) I know exactly who I'll be using for the next function! ??

My wife and I can’t say enough about how incredible our wedding turned out, all thanks to Jacqueline. We really wanted to lean into the funky, fun spirit of Palm Springs and incorporate stylish elements that captured that vibe. Jacqueline completely understood the assignment and knocked it out of the park. Every wild idea we had—no matter how crazy—she made happen, and the result was more beautiful than we ever imagined. Most importantly, our wedding felt so authentically us—every detail reflected our personalities, style, and vision. She didn’t just plan our wedding day—she created an unforgettable wedding weekend, bringing each event to life with its own unique theme and atmosphere. From the moody, dark, and sexy welcome dinner on Friday to the bright, fun, and wild wedding day, to the disco-glam after-party, and finally, the perfect cherry on top: a relaxed and stylish brunch on Sunday, Jacqueline made sure every moment felt special and seamlessly executed. She also helped coordinate our invitations and gift bags, both of which turned out incredible and set the tone for the whole experience. Every aspect of the planning process was handled flawlessly, and her attention to detail ensured everything came together perfectly. Working with her was effortless and truly a pleasure throughout the entire year of planning. She was so easy to collaborate with, and our frequent Zoom meetings helped us stay on track despite our busy schedules. We always left those calls feeling positive and excited about our wedding. Jacqueline goes above and beyond in every way. She helped us find special entertainment outside the bounds of a typical wedding—our guests were blown away by the stilt walkers and dancers she arranged. She also handled coordinating with family members and hotels, making the entire planning process seamless. Truly a one-stop shop, she does it all with no hidden costs—everything is included, and the value for money is unmatched. If you’re looking for a wedding planner who will bring your vision to life and then some, Jacqueline is the one. Hiring her was the best decision we made, and we can’t recommend her enough!
