    Karen is the best!

    Karen is absolutely incredible! She goes above and beyond in every possible way. From the very beginning, she helped us find the perfect venue and vendors that matched both our vision and our budget. Thanks to her organization, creativity, and calm presence, our wedding day was beautiful and could not have gone smoother. We truly have no doubt that Karen is the best wedding planner out there. We can’t recommend her highly enough!

    Incredible Experience from Start to Finish

    Using Karen's month-of coordination and and floral design services for our September 2024 wedding was the best decision we made. Every conversation we had with her was organized, action-oriented, and most importantly, calming. As the groom, I was incredibly appreciative of the positive yet instructive information that that Karen gave me and my wife.

    Karen is a Los Angeles wedding expert. Throughout the entire planning process, Karen was able to provide feedback on local vendors and connect us with her circle of trusted, expert vendors who can cater, DJ, videograph, and even bring ice cream carts to your wedding. If there is something you want, she has someone for it, and you can be sure it is high quality.

    Thanks to Karen and her team, our actual wedding day went incredibly smoothly. The tablescapes were flawless and the flowers were truly unbelievable. All vendors were well organized, kept on time, and held to high standards the entire night. More so, Karen went above and beyond to make sure that every detail was accounted for. She even sprayed the outdoor venue for ants prior to guests sitting down!

    If you're on the fence of whether to get a planner, go with Karen. Her true dedication to her clients, unmatched expertise, and calming demeanor will make your wedding dreams into reality. You will not regret it.

    Flawless Florals & Exceptional Service - Perfect Wedding Experience!

    We couldn't be happier with our experience working with Karen for our wedding! From start to finish, everything was seamless. She arrived on time, set up perfectly, and was so easy to work with throughout the entire process. I sent over some inspiration photos, and she matched them exactly, exceeding all of our expectations. She even brought extra florals just in case, which was such a thoughtful touch. The guests couldn't stop talking about the stunning florals, especially the breathtaking arrangements on our arch. Highly recommend Karen for any event—you'll be in great hands!

    Would HIGHLY Recommend Karen! :D

    I found Karen through Yelp and I must say I struck gold with her. She initially matched my interests because she is local in RPV (Los Angeles County) and distance was a key component to all factors wedding-related. From the very beginning, she was very kind-hearted, understanding and responsive. She worked every scheduling kink with me and was attentive to all details I blurted out at various times AND any last minute changes that may have come up since I work (night shift) at the hospital during the tail end of the pandemic. She is so easy to work with and exceeded all my expectations, but I also had minimal expectations going into my wedding because I was one of those indecisive brides who honestly wanted a small intimate wedding of 40 guests, but later ended up with 105. Her execution on the day-of was seamless and she reassured me of everything at the right moment. Her time and herself packed everything up after my event ended and made sure it got to the right people. Cherry on top was my bouquet - it was everything I did not know I wanted - absolutely beautiful and I was so happy with it! Trust her and trust the process. She's a professional and I would highly recommend her to anyone and everyone!

    Wonderful experience!

    We had a wonderful experience working with Karen!! I really had no idea what I wanted and she helped talk me through everything and worked with my budget. Once I finally decided on the types of colors I wanted in my bouquet, what Karen came up with was above & behind what I could have imagined!! It was so gorgeous!! Plus she’s a sweetheart. Would recommend for anyone for their wedding!

    Breathtaking Florals!

    Karen is amazing to work with. She has done the florals for two weddings for my family this year - my mom's and my own. Both times, the florals looked absolutely stunning. For my wedding, we had two pre-planning meetings with her to go over all the florals needed and to brainstorm color palettes and arrangement types. She was so helpful and took our vision and ran with it! The florals themselves were breathtaking - the floral arch on the pergola where we had our ceremony was a masterpiece, and I couldn't stop sneaking peeks at it! The bouquets were perfect, her floral additions to the cake looked wonderful, the centerpieces were lovely, and the arch was repurposed so perfectly for the head table florals. I can't get over how incredible it all looked and how the florals really made everything come together.

    A Perfect Fit!

    After 3 wedding dates and countless hurdles, Karen got me down the most beautiful aisle. She took my vision and made it a reality. She was by my side the entire nite and made sure everything ran smoothly. She is such a pleasure to work with and always went above and beyond!

    Amazing coordinator and florist!!

    I cannot recommend Karen more highly! As our day-of coordinator for our wedding, she went ABOVE and beyond to make our day special. From designing beautiful flowers, to decorating our entire reception venue and bringing her own supplies, Karen truly did it all! She was kind, responsive, helpful, and always willing to speak with me and answer all my questions. She was a lifesaver on the day of and was incredibly helpful to both of us and my family. We could not have done it without her!! She was a fantastic support for us and are so grateful for her! Thank you Karen!!!

    Excellent work to work with!!

    My studio Epic Vision Studios had the opportunity to work with Karen Sartori Florals Weddings and Events on a beautiful wedding in Malibu. I can’t say enough about Karen—she is an incredible wedding planner and coordinator! Karen and her team are very easy to work with and very professional. Not only does Karen work with her clients, but she also worked one-on-one with me to create the perfect timeline to make sure we had time to photograph everything the client wanted. I highly recommend Karen!

    Karen is an Angel!

    The sweetest, most patient, and talented florist! Karen went above and beyond, for us after being in contact and rescheduling many times due to covid. She was so patient and flexible and did everything she could to keep within budget. She saved me during my ceremony when i forgot my veil and ran to find it and put it on me as well as fix my dress for me right before my wedding entrance. I cannot express how thankful I am for her, she literally saved the ceremony! Karen is so personable and friendly and clearly loves what she does! I will always recommend her to any friend looking for a florist! I was truly blown away by her service and beautiful arrangements. Thank you again Karen! You really helped make our day that much more special!

    Amazing Florist

    WOW! Can I say anymore? From day we met Karen, we knew she was the perfect person to provide us with florals for our wedding. Karen went above and beyond to make sure my wedding florals were what I wanted. She made sure she had extras for our catering tables, dessert tables and wedding cake. I went into our first meeting with little vision of what I wanted and gave Karen free rein. To say her work blew me out of the water is an understatement. Everything was perfect and better than I expected. Last minute, I added flower girl head pieces, which turned out amazing as well. She is so gifted and truly cares about her work. She showed up in plenty of time before the wedding and stayed until the cake cutting to make sure all her extra pieces were set up correctly. She routinely checked in with me to make sure I had everything I needed. Karen is a true gem and everyone should get to know her. You will not be disappointed.

    The Best Wedding Florist!

    Karen is one of the sweetest people you will ever meet. When I first met with her to discuss flowers for our wedding, I knew she would be a good fit for us. Communication was easy and she always responded promptly to our emails. She was also very attentive to my flower preferences. I really wanted to hang origami cranes from our ceremony arch and Karen turned my vision into reality! She was even nice enough to leave the cranes hanging on the arch for the duration of our wedding, even though our original plan was to have her break down the arch after the ceremony. We also noticed she even brought some extra flowers and greenery to add to our decor. The prices for her flower arrangements are VERY reasonable for what you get. She also offers coordination services (we would've went with her if we hadn't hired our coordinator already!). All in all, the flower arrangements on our wedding day were beautiful and turned out better than we could have ever imagined. Thank you so much Karen!

    Stunning succulents!

    Karen and her team made our wedding vision come true with the most fantastic succulent arrangements! They also built an incredible arch for the ceremony! Karen was so easy to work with, was available for appointments and was so creative and flexible in her approach! She is so lovely and is so inspired in her creations! Professional, approachable, communicative and visionary!

    Fantastic and thoughtful florist!

    Karen was wonderful to work with; she's incredibly thoughtful and has good taste. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a florist for their event! She modified flower choices based on our budget and adjusted the look based on our preferences. She's so sweet and knowledgeable and her team is very helpful! I found out about her through Pastiche Event Productions (our terrific planner), who works really well with Karen!

    Every detail was perfect.

    After meeting with several floral designers, I was beginning to lose hope that I would find someone who "got" me and understood my initial vision - and could jump in, ask the right questions, and provide ideas and guidance to round it out. I decided to meet with one more - Karen Sartori - and I am SO glad I did! She "got" me right off the bat, and turned my initial vision into something better than I ever could have imagined!

    Working with Karen was my favorite part of wedding planning. She had excellent ideas and brought the perfect balance of endless enthusiasm and calming energy to the experience. She gave me peace of mind that everything would come together perfectly - and it did! I loved every one of our our centerpieces, bouquets, boutonnieres and corsages. Not only was Karen incredibly knowledgeable as to which flowers were in season and would look best, but she provided guidance as to which linens, table numbers, candles and finishing touches would bring everything together as well. I truly loved every detail - and am so grateful to Karen for everything she did to make our big day wonderful!

    The most Beautiful Flowers and the sweetest person to work with!

    We first met Karen about 6 months before our wedding in which we hired her on for our day of coordination and floral design.

    Karen is the absolute sweetest person you will ever meet. She is organized and asks all the right questions and always has nice recommendations to help fit what you are looking for. She is very responsive and connects with vendors seamlessly.

    From managing our large processional party to the beautiful decor and set up of our ceremony and reception. The flowers were beautiful and the decor took our breath away. The abor decor and drapings looked amazing at the ceremony and the smaller details like the memorial arrangement, re-purposing of the bouquets and table centerpieces made the reception area so beautiful!

    Karen is amazing and really went out of her way to ensure things ran smoothly from start to finish! We truly can't thank her enough!

    Sweetest Florist/Planner You Will Ever Meet!

    We hired Karen as our florist and day of wedding coordinator, and we couldn't have been more pleased with our decision. I am the kind of person that really appreciates the beauty of flowers so having fresh, beautiful flowers was a top priority for me. However, nailing down the color scheme and aesthetic was not easy. I wanted to incorporate both my husband and I’s tastes into our wedding but that was difficult to envision even in my own head, since we are total opposites! His favorite color is black, mine is pink. My preferred aesthetic is rustic chic, his is modern. He is minimalistic and I like the bling. However, Karen and her team executed our “best of both worlds” vision perfectly. Our wedding florals and decor was stunning — it exceeded all of our expectations!

    Karen is very detail orientated and has a lot of experience in the wedding industry. I would show her some pictures or describe some obscure flowers and she included the EXACT flowers I mentioned in passing into our arrangements. I wanted to incorporate the color black into our color scheme and preferred a specific flower (black anemone) but it was unfortunately out of season. Karen recommended other options that we were going to go with but she surprised us on our wedding day and procured the flowers that were out of season! She also did our succulent wedding favors.

    She had worked our venue many times before so she was able to provide her experiences on how to plan a successful event there. The whole day went seamlessly! That is the power of industry knowledge. If you’re having your event in Palos Verdes (or anywhere for that matter), you MUST hire Karen and her team. For those on a budget, she is also reasonably priced and even provided some decor item rentals for us as a courtesy. Karen is just the sweetest!! She loves what she does, and it shows!

    Excellent florist and ceremony coordinator

    From our first phone call, Karen was friendly and full of ideas. We hired her for florals and ceremony coordination and beyond got our money's worth. She was so helpful in suggesting ways we could repurpose, minimize, and stretch our florals to save some money when we went over budget (which, in the process, was losing her money). She even helped us write our day of timeline when we were pretty much clueless on how much time things would take--spending an hour on the phone with us over what started as a 5 minute clarification question. And on the day of, her floral designs knocked it out of the park. Truly gorgeous! I was a less picky bride who basically gave her a color scheme and let her run with it, so I can't perfectly speak to her ability to execute an exacting floral vision if that's what you have, but I would trust her skills to achieve any look you wanted. In the realm of ceremony coordination, she attended our weirdly timed, midday rehearsal and got everyone run through a couple of times so we all knew what we were doing, then did a great job cue-ing everybody for the walk down the aisle on the day of--and encouraging us back down it, when my husband and I were just kind of standing there in a happy daze after the ceremony. I would have been much more nervous about all the logistics of the ceremony, instead of just enjoying the moment, if we hadn't had Karen. Overall, she has my strongest possible recommendation for both parts of her services!

    Fabulous, detail oriented, wedding coordinator

    I hired Karen to help me on the day of my wedding, and she was absolutely priceless. Not only did she help on the day of the wedding, she met with me at the venue ahead of time to do a walk through. She was also incredibly flexible when I changed things up just a week before. She provided me with her own rentals for certain items I needed, helped me find places to purchase other items, and provided me with other rental companies for items she didn't have. Karen was always very responsive, even if she couldn't communicate at that time because she was working, she would at least send a quick text to let me know her situation, and she would get back to me as soon as she was done.

    Karen is also very creative. We had pew flowers at the chapel, as soon as the ceremony was over Karen picked them up, and completely transformed them into centerpieces for the tables at dinner. Our wedding day consisted of three separate locations, and Karen made her way, unseen to each location to set things up so that I didn't have to worry about any details at all. She made the day itself a stress-free dream.

    Best Coordinator & Florals!

    Karen helped us with both day-of coordination and florals. She was amazing to work with and helped make our day run so smoothly. I'm pretty organized but with two venues and lots of other vendors, having her there let me relax and enjoy the day - while keeping everything running on time and without issue! Not to mention, the flowers were stunning!

    Karen is the dream coordinator and florist. Everything I could’ve ever wanted out of my wedding was perfectly executed by her, it was truly incredible to see my dream wedding come to life and I couldn’t have done it with out Karen. She did my chuppah/arch flowers, centerpieces, aisle, table decor, basically everything! She is someone you need even when you think you’ve thought of everything, she has tons of years of experience in the industry so she knows all the little things and all the major things that matter. She’s well organized, responds so quick, easy to work with and understands, respects and makes your vision come true! My wedding was flawless because of her and I can’t thank her enough. Please if you are a bride to be reading this, do not waste your time looking for the cheapest option (Karen is actually super affordable) and settling for half of what you deserve. Please call Karen and her team and make your dreams wedding come to life you will not regret it!

    We met with several florists when planning our wedding, and Karen's awesome personality, helpful information and ideas, and competitive pricing led us to booking her and it was by far one of the best decisions throughout the wedding planning process! Karen was incredibly responsive to my emails and even connected us with a rental group that had much better prices than our venue for our rentals. She also completely understood my vision for our flowers--I was completely blown away and emotional when I saw them on the day of our wedding! The bouquets, centerpieces and our arch and sweetheart backdrop were more beautiful than I ever imagined and we got compliments all night long. The flowers were also very fresh and lasted for days afterwards. Karen worked tirelessly and her hard work paid off with a stunning wedding. We are so thankful and appreciative that she was a part of our special day and that she helped it to be the most incredible day of our lives. I could not recommend her highly enough!!!

    Love Karen! She was absolutely amazing in every sense of the word. Karen is so kind and easy going. Our arrangements, center pieces, bouquets, and my flower crown were gorgeous. Would recommend Karen and her assistant over and over. Our wedding day was so beautiful thanks to Karen. She is able to work with any budget and gets the most bang for your buck.

    Karen and her team are AMAZING!!!! Karen did my floral decor for my ceremony and reception, as well as being my Day of Coordinator. From the start she made me feel comfortable. She is so easy to work with, she made my wedding day extra special. She did a wonderful job with the flowers, I sent her a picture of what I wanted and she nailed it. My bouquet and arrangements looked even better than the inspiration pictures. For the arch I basically told her what I liked and she made it look amazing. I wanted simple and elegant and that is exactly what she did. I cannot stop looking at pictures and seeing how wonderful everything turned out. I keep saying was this really my wedding. She is also a great coordinator! I am so glad that I used her for it, I was feeling anxious days before and she calmed me down saying everything will look great. We had a few issues with the Mariachi and she handled it great. Everyone keeps raving how on top of things they were, they made sure I ate and had something to drink before the ceremony and during the reception. Her assistant that day was Chelsea, everyone loved her as well. She was so helpful with anything and everything we needed. My 2 year old niece/flower girl fell asleep before the grand entrance and Chelsea was carrying her, this is how amazing they are. I can't recommend her enough, she is amazing!!! Thank you sooooo much Karen and team!!!

    Karen was both our florist and day-of-coordinator. She did an amazing job on the flowers. She provided a lot of great tips and advice for the decoration, which was beautiful! The wedding day also went very smoothly for us. Everything was executed perfectly with even some time to spare. We're very thankful for Karen and her team!

    Karen was seriously the best vendor i could have chosen for my wedding. I did most of my wedding on my own and she was there without me even asking! There were a couple of things that I needed done a certain way and she did everything possible to make it right. She seriously deserves more than the 5 stars that we can give on this rating. She is friendly and personable and the pricing was so reasonable. I am so thankful for everything that she did for me and I definitely recommend her to any bride. She wont flake on you and she is so creative I can guarantee that your flowers will be so unique! Thank you again Karen for everything! I am so appreciate and I couldnt have asked for anything better

    Karen was above and beyond amazing!!! I told her what my vision was in the best way I could, not actually knowing anything about flowers, and she was able to make it come to life better than I could have even imagined! I was so impressed by the personal touch she brought to her work and the interactions I had with her. It never felt like she was just a vendor I was paying to put flowers at my wedding, it felt like she was family who was truly invested in helping make our wedding the most special day of our lives. I am forever grateful to her and would recommend her to anyone!

    Working with Karen was a wonderful experience! I don't know flowers and was unsure of what I wanted for my wedding besides "pretty colorful flowers". She was patient and knowledgeable and recommended beautiful blooms that fit my budget. I could not have been more pleased with the flowers that were used for my big day and the arrangements themselves were stunning!

    Karen is PHENOMENAL! She is the sweetest person and probably my favorite vendor for my wedding. She knows the wedding planning process inside and out and can answer and help out with any and all questions. On the day on my wedding she went above and beyond when she made sure my veil didn't catch on anything right before I walked down the aisle. Her prices and great and can fit any budget. She is truly a unique and beautiful soul who has a true calling for weddings.

    Karen coordinated my wedding on 3/5/16 and arranged all the flowers and decorations--her work is AMAZING and I have the pictures to prove it! Karen is also very sweet and personable--she was very responsive to all of the my texts and emails, and even if she didn't have an answer right away, she would still respond by letting me know she would get back to me and she never made me feel like I was a bother; I always felt comfortable asking her questions and advice and she was also upfront about everything.
    Last but definitely not least, the quality of her work is top-notch! She has very good insight, a creative eye and a true gift for artistry and elegant/contemporary designing. I gave her a vision and she made it reality--I have to say when I walked up to our sweetheart table on wedding day, I was just so impressed with how beautiful our table was and I felt like a princess just sitting there surrounded by the flowers, the hint of sparkles and lighting and I loved the silver rosette tablecloth she added on!
    Advice for any bride: know your budget and be honest and realistic with yourself and coordinator; prioritize what kinds of things you want to spend $ on--for me, I knew I wanted to allocate extra $ toward flowers/decorations and coordinating services--the coordinating services are worth investing in so that you don't have to worry about managing all the details on wedding day.
    Thank you Karen for everything! I got sooo many compliments on the flowers and decorations!

    Karen did an amazing job! the flowers made the wedding for sure! She has a great eye for detail, knew the brides vision right away, and really worked with us on our budget. We had a small glitch and forgot to tell Karen we needed the brides bouquet a couple hours earlier for a photo shoot at a different location (5 miles away) we panicked, called her, and like a fairy godmother she was there with the bouquet ready to go! this was our error yet she was on top of it immediately. I don't know if this would work for everyone but Karen will do everything in her power to make your wedding BEAUTIFUL! She is VERY talented and I highly recommend using her!!

    We got married in March with a beautiful environment thanks to Karen. Karen has great attention to details. We completely trusted her with our floral arraignments for our wedding and she pulled through. She went above and beyond what was expected and truly cared about making our day gorgeous! Pricing was extremely fair and reasonable and we didn't feel like we broke the bank on floral arraignments. She has a great personality, easy to talk to, and great with ideas. We love you Karen!!!!

    Karen was a delight to work with. We got her services as day of coordinator and all flower arrangements for our wedding in Palos Verdes. She was so professional and pleasant to work with. I can't imagine how we would have handled it without her. Her follow thorough on things was great and I only wish we have hired her for the whole time of the wedding coordination. Don't waste your time looking anywhere else, Karen will have YOUR vision brought to life, and for that Thank you Karen! A&A

    Amazing Wedding Planner and Florist

    My partner and I got a married a few weeks ago. We do not know where to begin to express our gratitude for Karen's work coordinating and decorating our wedding. We hired her for partial planning services/coordination and also florals about a year out from our wedding date. Since we opted for a more DIY venue, there were what felt like a million and one details that had to come together to execute our vision. Whether it was ensuring our photobooth vendor had adequate shade, or making sure my partner and I were standing centered in the ceremony space, or laying out our personalized decor for the welcome table, or keeping an eye out for the cardbox throughout the night, Karen took every idea and concern we shared to heart. Our reception area turned out even better than we could have imagined with twinkle lights, pipe and drape, and beautiful flowers. Our venue in particular had a ton of rules and regulations that we had to work around. Karen was our point person throughout the process and helped ensure that if there were any hiccups that came up throughout the day they were sorted out without my knowledge-saving me a ton of stress. Karen is organized, warm, and efficient in making sure everyone is where they need to be and on task. She was patient with our large families but also maintained a nice flow to our timeline. She was quick to respond to questions and helped us review vendor contracts earlier on in the process. She came with us to pick out our rental items and gave her honest input about what would work well together and which items would actually be of use for us. She also recommended a wonderful officiant for our ceremony. Her experience in the wedding industry is undeniable. Planning a DIY wedding seemed like a daunting task at times but having Karen on our team helped make the process so much more manageable. She really was our advocate 100% of the time.
    If you are on the fence about hiring Karen, just go for it. You won't regret it!
