  A standing ovation!

  Nam and his team deserve the highest praise. Hiring Modern LA Weddings was the best investment we made in our wedding. On the day of, we had absolutely nothing to worry about. Nam and his teammate Rosie ran our rehearsal, then made sure we made it from our hotel down the aisle, and then made sure we could enjoy every aspect of our wedding. Nam understands sensitivities involving Vietnamese culture. He navigated them well and gave us great advice on how to address family members' concerns.
  
  I wasn't super excited about my venue at first, but Nam transformed it. There was no space for a cocktail hour, so Nam created one. He transformed the front of the building, which is normally nothing more than a few parking spaces, to a cocktail hour that made people feel like they were at a Hollywood party. The vision was all his -- laying the astroturf, putting up hedges to make the event feel enclosed, and putting up wash lighting. The guests loved it and felt very special.
  
  Also, we would have not survived our visit to all 27 guest tables without Nam! He just "gets" it and has a goal of getting you to a place where you can just enjoy the wedding. On our wedding day, he worked a 13+ hour day at the venue to make sure everything was perfect.
  
  I would recommend Nam to any of my friends and family members. Thank you Nam and Rosie again for everything!!

  You can stop your search for the perfect wedding coordinator, Modern LA Weddings has your back!

  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.

  Working with Nam and his team was such a stress-saver on our wedding day. We hired Modern LA Weddings for month-of and day-of coordination. In the month before the wedding, they were a tremendous help in coordinating with all the vendors, working out timing, and helping me figure out all the loose ends that I would never have thought of on my own. On the day itself, it was so nice to be able to trust that I had professionals monitoring every aspect of the wedding so that I didn't have to worry about anything. As far as I'm concerned, the wedding day went as smoothly possible and I couldn't be happier!

  I had the wedding of my dreams and I never would have been able to do it without Nam Lam and the Modern LA Weddings team! Planning an LA wedding all the way from NY is not and easy task, but everything came together so beautifully. Nam is a master at vendor selection. He knows everyone and has great relationships with local vendors. Best of all, he knows exactly which vendors will mesh with your vision and your personality. Every single vendor that Nam and his team suggested was phenomenal! At one point I became overwhelmed with wedding planning and I told Nam that I trusted him and that he had free reign to bring the vision that we discussed to life. I saw a lot of the details for the first time on my wedding day and I was completely blown away. Hiring Nam was the best decision we have ever made and working with him was an absolute dream! On our wedding day we did not have to lift a finger or worry about a single detail. Everything was handled. I recommend him 100%, not only because he is great at was he does, but because he also really cares about his clients and does everything with so much passion behind it. We can't thank him and his team enough for bringing our dream wedding to life!

  WOW! WOW! WOW! Nam and his team were a gift from the angels above! I was one of those busy brides who had no time to plan a wedding and needed a partner in crime who was going to know what I needed, help me make decisions and keep my wedding day stress free. Not only did I get everything I hoped for a more, I ended making a lifelong friend out of Nam. I wanted a zero drama wedding planner who understood my budget but also my specific taste and would work for me. Nam gave me all of those things. We were a holiday weekend wedding with 330+ guests in Downtown LA, with three events through the weekend. Everything was seamless! When people ask if I could have changed anything, the only things were SO MINOR that no one would have even noticed. Everything was perfect and fun. Nam was worth EVERY penny.

  With just under 2 months left in our wedding planning, we had secured our venue and some of our vendors beforehand but found that we needed a lot of help with what we were missing, including a day-of coordinator. We vetted a few highly-rated planners before deciding to move forward with Nam at Modern LA Weddings. It was clear from our first conversation that Nam totally got us. He had great suggestions and connections with people/vendors that we ended up absolutely loving (especially the florist and photographers)! Day of coordination with Nam and Hovik was total perfection. As the bride, I worried about nothing and was able to enjoy the day with Hovik by my side the whole time, ready to help me with anything and to keep me and the wedding party on schedule. The design and layout of everything at the venue was exactly as discussed (and much of it turned out better than expected). After the event, everything was packed up and either moved to our cars that night or delivered to our home the next week. We had special toasting glasses engraved, and late in the evening, we thought they had gotten swept in with all the other catering glasses... but it turned out, to our surprise, that they were washed, packed and moved to the car. There were so many elements to the wedding that made it so incredibly special and we couldn't have even hoped for, if it weren't for Nam and his team. My husband and I are beyond grateful that they played such an important role in making our wedding the best day of our lives.

  The best decision I ever made (other than the groom) was Hovik. I reached out to ModernLA Weddings to be my day-of coordinators and was given the gift of Hovik. Where to begin. He is calm (which is a wonderful contrast to some of the other over-the-top coordinators I interviewed), super organized, and a sweetheart. He took over the planning 3 weeks before the wedding and from that moment I seriously had nothing to worry about. He is exactly what you want in a coordinator. He works quickly and efficiently behind the scenes to put out fires, consults with you when needed, takes care of all the details (and difficult people) and goes the extra step to make sure you are happy and stress-free.
  
  Day-of the wedding he was my rock. He kept popping in to make sure I was doing ok, to see if I needed anything, and to tell me that my husband-to-be looked so handsome :) Everything went so smoothly and beautifully, and my job was just to enjoy. My whole family loved him and overall I really believe I have made a friend for life
  
  Fantastic coordinator, and an even better person. I cannot recommend him enough, or thank him enough for making my special day absolutely perfect.

  I'm so happy Modern LA Wedding coordinated my wedding at Triunfo Creek Vineyards in Sept'14.
  
  I received day of wedding coordination services from Modern LA Weddings after firing another full service wedding planner due to its fraudulent business practice (see my review for Vivian Paire & Co.). Nam Lam was a great vendor to work with from start to finish. Although our contractual agreement was for the day of, Nam volunteered to start his services earlier than the 1 month of prep time after hearing about my reasons for hiring him. Nam just radiated

  What if I want 10 stars? And I want them to be gold. Is there a way to give 10 gold stars? If there is, Nam will know how to do it! He was able to make all of my wishes come true. It's one thing to know what you want, which I did. It's an entirely different matter when it comes to actually bringing that vision to life, which Nam did. He went above and beyond for me, I honestly feel like he should have charged us more! I can't rave enough- Nam was the best thing that ever happened to my wedding. (Aside from my husband, of course.) He was my hero, confidant, planner extraordinaire and at the end of it all he became my friend. I couldn't have asked for anything more!!

  We hired Nam to help us plan our wedding and to be our day of coordinator. This was the best decision ever! It was such a relief not having to worry about anything especially on our wedding day and it flew by seamlessly. Worth every penny!

  Forget a 5 star rating- Nam deserves a million plus stars! Not only did I gain an extremely talented, attentive wedding planner but I truly felt like I gained a friend and confidant. I hired Nam for design- but I felt like I got so much more. You name it, Nam helped me with it or made it happen! He took my vision and magnified threefold. Our wedding was at the beautiful Los Angeles Athletic Club. Nam recommended the venue. After doing my own research of venue after venue, I finally looked into Nam's recommendation. The venue already stands on it's own (it's unique, beautiful, and perfect for what I was looking for). Our theme was modern, vintage, glam! How cool and unique does that sound?!?! Totally Nam who came up with it based on conversations with my husband and I. My husband has a very modern clean look about him, I tend to like soft vintage things, and I also (pretty random) love anything bling or sequin. Who would have thought Nam could put all the ideas together and make something super wonderful and awesome of out it. From wine bottle wedding favors, to gold succulents, to purple linens, and pomander flower arrangements, my wedding looked like a million bucks. Literally folks thought I spent tons of money. No exaggeration Nam can pull off a million dollar look with total respect to your budget. Aside from the work itself, Nam is such a genuinely nice and accommodating person. He always made himself available, he's patient and understanding, he's helpful, an active and engaged listener and really became my trusted partner during the whole wedding planning process. Outstanding service and outstanding quality.

  Let me start by saying WOW. We hired Nam about 2 weeks before our wedding. I was feeling so overwhelmed and knew I needed help. Nam and his staff were so accommodating, helpful, calming, and organized. The day of was absolutely perfect. And it was all thanks to the amazing team. I had such an amazing day and I really owe a lot to them. I highly recommend Nam if you want to enjoy your special day. I know I did. I know the saying "if you want something done right, do it yourself," but they should really have Nam do it. The wedding was at the 1909 in Topanga. It was a dream.

  We actually used Nam for our son's bar mitzvah for day of coordination but he helped with so much more. He helped me find a fantastic florist and helped choose arrangements, coordinated with the caterer and with the event space, the Annenberg Beach House, He contacted all of our vendors and helped get everyone set up so I could just enjoy the day and our party.

He helped me find a fantastic florist and helped choose arrangements, coordinated with the caterer and with the event space, the Annenberg Beach House, He contacted all of our vendors and helped get everyone set up so I could just enjoy the day and our party. He couldn't have been more lovely and helpful.

  I cannot recommend Nam highly enough. As a medical student on a time crunch, trying to plan a wedding on my own became completely and utterly overwhelming. I found Nam through verbal referral and he literally saved the day (and all the days between finding him and the big day). He helped coordinate a wedding in California for a bride in Nevada and a groom in Texas...a tall order that he handled gracefully. Always available by phone (unless he had an event-since he gives all attention during those times) and email, he was flexible with ideas and dealt with my pickiness and perfectionism fabulously. Outside of wedding design and planning, Nam is a really wonderful person...someone who is reliable and kind, and loves what he does. As for the cost of a planner, it is money so well spent! Having peace of mind is priceless!

  This is a long overdue review, but it still feels like yesterday when I was speaking with Nam from Modern LA weddings regarding the details of my perfect day. Nam provided me with a 3 month wedding planning/coordination package, of which I couldn't have been more pleased with. He was so responsive to every single email/text that I sent him, no matter how late in the evening. We talked about everything little detail and during the times where I feel like my head would explode and go into full bridezilla mode, he would calm me down and reassure me that everything will go off without a hitch. He has not only been a wonderful coordinator/planner, he has been such a wonderful friend to me and my husband.
  I didnt have to stress about a single thing on my wedding day and I thank him and the staff at Modern LA weddings for allowing me to enjoy every single second of my perfect day. Thanks Modern LA Weddings and thank you Nam!
  
  With LOVE, your Vibiana Couple =)

  Details, details, details....they understand how those make or break an event. We had great access, wonderful follow up and superb advice. Everyone attending complimented us on how easily the event went, which, of course, was greatly due to the excellent work of Modern LA Weddings.

  Nam and his staff were wonderful and created a beautiful wedding for us. He executed our vision and even brought some of his props free of charge to help create the right ambiance for our wedding.

  Nam planned our wedding from start to finish. We initially hired him because of his warmth and impeccable creative eye. What we didn't realize is that he would be so flexible, patient and cheerful the whole way through the process. Nam is able to remain calm during tense situations but also take charge when things need to get done. Plus, he really went above and beyond for us. My mom passed away a couple months before I was slated to get married and I wanted to push my wedding date. Nam was totally understanding and allowed us to change our contract no problem. He just made it happen. He developed beautiful, eco concious decor for the wedding and was a great partner in helping my husband and I to have a dream wedding. We love you Nam!

  We used Modern LA weddings to plan our daughters Bat Mitzvah and it was nothing but spectacular.
  So much thought to detail and a pleasure to work with.

  Nam and the crew at Modern LA Wedding were FANTASTIC. We initially were looking for just a day-of-coordinator but we ended up signing up for a style package and also day of coordination. Immediately after the wedding, my husband and I both agreed, "There's no way we could ever have pulled that off without Nam and his staff!" Not only did they take care of everything the day of the wedding, but Nam was there for all of our major crisis leading up to the wedding. He listened to me panic numerous times, but he always stayed calmed and always offered either a solution or some insight on how to solve the problem. He went above and beyond what we contracted for and planning my wedding with him was like planning it with a great friend who knew everything about the wedding industry. Looking back, I would have signed up for the full package! Nam and his staff are absolutely phenomenal. We were able to completely enjoy our day because I knew Nam would be there to make everything go perfect - and he did.

  I didn't think we'd need a wedding planner for our wedding but our venue required a day of coordinator. I was WRONG!
  Nam was amazing. His preference was for "month-of-wedding coordinator" and he couldn't have been more right. He really stayed on top of all the details, creating and then editing our timeline and moving things along on our wedding day -- all without making us feel like we were on a strict schedule. Also, he came through on our last minute desire to have macaroons on our dessert table -- and our guests loved them!
  
  My only regret is that we didn't hire him for the entire wedding planning and coordination. There are a lot of important things to decide on for your wedding but TRUST ME -- hire Nam and all those other details will fall into place.

  In a nutshell: Nam is one of the best investments you can make for your wedding.
  
  My fiance and I hired Nam initially because our venue requires a day of coordinator. After talking to Nam, he offered a one month planning package as his own preference. In the end, it was one of the best decisions we could have made.
  
  I highly recommend him unless you're someone already with experience in wedding planning. He happened to know about details that we didn't even imagine. I also really liked that he wasn't afraid to provide guidance when we weren't sure about how to make a decision. He is very detail oriented and extremely professional. And at the end of the day, he'll have your back!

  Nam and his team were a huge help on our wedding day, and so fun to work with. We hired Modern LA Weddings for day-of coordination, but Nam jumped right in and started helping with details as soon as we met! I could not have imagined the day without him.

  Hands down, Nam was the best money spent on our wedding! So many of our guests have told us that our wedding was the best wedding they’ve ever attended and I know it’s all because of Nam. Hiring Nam was easily the best decision we made on our wedding. He was on top of everything (and I mean EVERYTHING)! He made sure everything was on track and he did a great job contacting all of my vendors and coordinating all the details of the wedding day. Our wedding day ended without a hitch!
  We had put our complete trust in Nam not just in the day-of coordination but also in the design of our entire wedding. Nam was very thorough in asking us different questions to get an understanding on the look and feel we wanted on our special day. He completely nailed it-- everything from the ceremony layout, floral arrangement, reception design, centerpieces (which we LOVED) came out PERFECT!! Not only were his designs beautiful but they were so unique and unlike anything we’ve ever seen at a wedding…it was exactly what we asked for and more! He surpassed all of our expectations and truly wowed us with an amazing wedding. He is just GOOD at what he does!
  Aside from his incredible work, Nam is very detailed-oriented, diligent, professional, hilarious, and just a joy to be around. He answered all of our questions and email promptly. From time to time (and especially as it got closer to the wedding day) he would call to check-in and see if we had any questions. He offered many great ideas and suggestions to make our big day easier. Nam made the whole wedding planning process incredibly easy and stress-free. Our wedding would not have been possible without him. Thank you, Nam! We love you!!
