If I could give zero stars I would. Ben was hired for my daughters Quince. I didn't want to have to…read moreworry about anything on this special day. In Aug of 2017 I hired LUXE for my event the in July 2018. Below are a few of the issues * Ben said he had other events at this venue, so he would take care of the bartending, no issues. 3 days before the event he told me he couldn't get the license for the event to bartend. He thought he could get by without having the proper ABC license at a city community center? Really? We had to scramble and purchase the alcohol ourselves and then hire a separate bartender. The plan was to have a closed bar. So this caused a lot of issues and additions cost. *Ben was paid an extra fee for "special linens" for the cake,m gift and coffee tables. These were supposed to be above and beyond standard to make it look really nice. What I got instead was cheap white polyester linens. *Ben was also paid extra for a backdrop for the cake and main court table. He didn't supply the backdrop for the cake table at all, and the one he used for the main table looked awful. Bars and other items laying in the back showed up in all of our pictures, ruining them! * After going thru the venue details, Ben said he only needed an hour to prep everything before the start of the event. He then stated if he could get an extra 15 minutes it would help him out. So I paid for an extra 30 minutes to the hall. My event started at 5pm. Now after 6pm he still wasn't done setting up. It took him 2.5 hours to finish setting up. Family and friends starting helping putting linens, center pieces, and plates on the tables to help out. This was quite embarrassing. * After the event was over we had a few hours to get the facility cleaned up. If it was not done in time, I would lose my deposit. Of course this was no skin off of his back. I had to stay and have family and friends assist with the clean up otherwise this company never would have been done in time and I would be out even more money. * Some of my guest also commented that while he was setting up he was helping himself to alcohol! Very unprofessional. * When I spoke to Ben about these issues and let him know I felt I was entitled to some sort of a refund for all of these issues, as others have mentioned her became very defensive and refused and said sue me. He told me I was very ungrateful and was down right rude. He is definitely very unorganized and very unprofessional. Do not risk your precious event and day with this company, you will definitely regret it.

My fiance found Ben at a bridal show and was so surprised by his package options, we were certain…read morethat it was too good to be true. We decided to use his services for an intimate engagement party and we now have him booked for the big day. He was very polite and punctual. He discussed all matters with us prior to and he came through on all of his promises. He was very patient with our guests and held his crew to the same standard he held himself. I never once had to ask him get something done because he was always one step ahead. Looking forward to working with him again.

Looking back over a year later, I am still incredibly grateful to Ana for helping me through one of…read morethe most important days of my life! Our wedding took place on February 4, 2024, at the Mission Inn Hotel in Riverside. Due to a tight budget, I decided to plan all the pre-wedding details myself (which, while rewarding, was extremely exhausting -- I wouldn't necessarily recommend it!). However, I knew I would need a professional coordinator for the day of the wedding itself. Also, the Mission Inn Hotel has a preferred vendor list, and by choosing vendors from that list, we were able to avoid additional vendor fees. To be honest, I initially chose Ana because she was the most affordable option on their list. But after working with her, I realized she was absolutely essential to the success of our wedding day! Ana has many years of experience in the wedding industry and is incredibly knowledgeable about every step of the process -- she even holds a minister's license. On the day of the wedding, she flawlessly managed the timeline, handled unexpected issues with ease, and allowed us to fully enjoy every precious moment without stress. I can confidently say that without Ana's support, our wedding would not have been as perfect as it was. As first-time bride and groom who had no prior experience with wedding planning, we wholeheartedly recommend Ana as your wedding coordinator. If you are looking for someone reliable and professional, trust me -- you will be so thankful you chose her!

We hired Megan as our day-of coordinator, and her price was so fair it made us a little nervous at first because usually you get what you pay for, right? But Megan completely blew us away. Don't let her size or age fool you she's an absolute powerhouse and a total rockstar. We had a ton of tables, decorations, and little details to set up on the day of, and Megan kept reassuring us she could handle it all. We hesitated, but we put our trust in her and she delivered beyond anything we could've hoped for. She somehow managed to get everything set up perfectly while still being available for every question, every little thing we needed throughout the day. She wasn't just doing a job; she genuinely cared and showed up for us in a way that felt like we had a trusted friend by our side. Then the rain hit during our reception. My wife and I were starting to lose it, but Megan stayed calm and steady. She pulled up this detailed weather app, helped us time our photos and speeches perfectly between the downpours, and kept our spirits up when we felt like giving up. Honestly, without her, that rain could have ruined the day but Megan made it feel like just another part of the story. On top of all that, she stayed after we left to help clean up, making sure everything was wrapped up beautifully. Megan went above and beyond in every way possible. If you want someone who's professional, calm under pressure, insanely capable, and just downright amazing, Megan is your girl. We are so grateful for everything she did, and I promise you won't regret choosing her. She didn't just meet our expectations she crushed them and made our wedding day truly unforgettable. :)

But with Carly, she made it a joyful celebration from start to finish. I can't recommend her enough! Carly was one of two planners recommended by our venue, South Coast Winery in Temecula. We visited over 10 venues before choosing South Coast, which shows how detail-oriented and thorough we are. After looking into both planners, it was an easy decision to go with Carly. She took our vague ideas and brought them to life with a beautiful color palette and cohesive design. When she presented her vision, we barely made any changes--it was exactly what we had in mind, even though we couldn't articulate it ourselves. From day one, Carly was on top of everything. Since we decided to forgo a wedding party, all the planning was up to the three of us. She kept us on track, ensuring we always knew what needed to be done and when. Her experience is incredible--she thought of things we would never have considered. Whenever we felt stressed or behind, a quick call with Carly always put us at ease. She also went above and beyond to make sure everything felt personalized just for us. Want golden hour photos? Done! Not into traditional paper invitations? No problem! Planning an outfit change? Carly made sure we had a golf cart so we wouldn't have to walk. That golf cart was a game-changer--we couldn't have kept up with our packed timeline without it. Plus, Carly's connections with vendors helped us get great discounts, and she did everything she could to make the day go as smoothly as possible. On our wedding day, everything was perfect. We were able to truly live in the moment, and that's all thanks to Carly. In short, Carly is the sweetest, most organized, detail-oriented planner with amazing design skills. She'll bring your dream wedding to life, just like she did for us.

I'm tempted to not write a review of this place. When you all find out about it, you will all crowd…read moreme out and I won't be able to get a seat here anymore. You may refer to this place as Celebrations, but it's really Dominico's place. Dominico had a vision for this place, and this place represents his vision for the ideal restaurant. This is a supper club from a calmer, more centered time. Red's the color of the day here, and it's a cool and witty red, the color of crushed velvet and drunken aging starlets. Dominico has gone to some trouble to make the place sweet and inviting without being stuffy. The portions are large here. Dominico believes strongly in his chef, and his chef love short ribs, so that's what I had. There was some depth of flavor in them, but there were just a little fatty for my personal taste. That is not a reflection of the cook or the restaurant; I simply don't love short rib as much as some people do, But I don't regret trying it. Anyway, although the food is good to very good, and the ambiance is exquisite, none of that is the reason you're coming to Dominico's. The reason you're coming to Dominico's, is because the owner himself will seat you and chat you up, and that he'll get on stage with his musician buddies, and he'll sing your favorite lounge lizard hits from the 1950s,'60s, and '70s. Now you're not here because Dominico has the best singing voice in all of Orange County. You are here because Dominico clearly loves his beautiful restaurant, and he loves his beautiful food, and he loves to sing for you. And the effect, as you're drinking red wine and sitting with your lovely date, is absolutely sublime. This is an Italian restaurant, serving American style portions, where the owner is singing love songs in Spanish from the 1970s. This place is absurdly charming, and only the prissiest of the purists could not love it dearly.
