They truly brought our vision to life and made the entire setup feel so special and personalized. The quality of the backdrop was amazing--beautifully designed, vibrant, and the perfect focal point for the party. We received so many compliments from our guests, and it made for the most memorable photos. We had many changes throughout out party planning process which I felt really bad for but Lisa and her team were so easy to communicate with! They werepunctual, and clearly passionate about what they do. You can tell they genuinely care about making your event feel magical. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking to elevate their event. Thank you for helping make our son's birthday so unforgettable!

I had such a wonderful experience working with The Simple Luxe for my son's first birthday party…read morethat was farmers market themed! From start to finish they were incredibly easy to communicate with- responsive, attentive, and truly listened to what I wanted. Lisa and her team brought my vision to life, and it was even better than I imagined. What really stood out was their willingness to work within our budget without compromising on quality or creativity. They not only designed and set up all the balloons, backdrops, installations but they also spent extra time helping me decorate and design the farmers market with the custom gifts I made and/or purchased for my guests. The entire process felt stress-free and enjoyable. Everything turned out beautifully and we received so many compliments. I am truly honored to be The Simple Luxe's first farmers market themed client and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a talented, reliable, and kind vendor who goes above and beyond. If you have been following them on social media like I was and have an upcoming event - reach out to them and get a quote! You will not be disappointed!

Let me start off by saying I have never used an event coordinator before and after the experience I…read morehad with Audrey from Santa Anita Banquets, I NEVER will again! Audrey was so unprofessional and so unorganized when it came to our wedding. She promised us one thing when we first met with her, but ended up with something completely different. We were given a list of things that were included in the wedding package that we chose; tables, centerpieces, chairs/covers, food, etc. Everything sounded good, so we signed the contract that day. Stupid move on our part! One thing after another started changing, first it was the "bar" could not serve wine in wine glasses so we had to provide the plastic cups for that. The so called "bar" was a table with crates, which were lined with trash bags to hold the beer and wine. There were only 2 centerpieces to choose from, we ended up choosing the 3 cylinder vases with an "orchid" in each, turns out the orchids were fake, as in plastic flowers that she probably bought from the 99cent store! I was beyond upset because I did not find this out until the day before our wedding. By then it was too late to order real flower centerpieces. Never once were we informed that our centerpieces were going to be fake flowers! This looked so tacky! I sent Audrey a text message letting her know that I was upset and she replied back with a VERY RUDE and UNPROFESSIONAL message. We were told they were not going to be able to use the chair covers for our chairs because the chairs at our venue were too wide and would not fit. I went ahead and rented covers from an outside vendor and paid and additional $250 for them only to find out the same day of our event that the covers Audrey had (which were part of our package deal) DID fit the chairs we were using, she never even tried them on. Our outdoor Ceremony was scheduled to start at 3:00pm and chairs were to be set up for our guests. Our guests were arriving and there was nowhere for them to sit. Audrey finally started bring chairs out and setting them up about 3:20pm after being told over and over. We paid an additional ceremony fee which we were told included a system for our ceremony music, the chairs, and rehearsal fee. We ended up downloading our own music and bringing our own speaker just incase because of all the other "surprises" we had along the way. Good thing we did because there was no music system for our ceremony. More than half of our guests had to stand for the entire ceremony because only a few chairs were brought out. Our tables were not set up the way we had requested them to be. Our candy buffet table was set up on a silver table cover, our colors were ivory and burgandy. Audrey and her staff started removing table and chair covers an hour and a half before the reception ended. There were not enough plates to serve our guests, some of them were served on styrofoam plates, again TACKY! To sum it all up this was the WORST experience I have ever had in my life! I will NEVER use Santa Anita Banquets ever again! To anyone who is wanting to use them in the future, please think twice.

Update , Feb 5, 2015. My husband spoke with Audrey on the phone today. Our stands are still not…read morereturned. He asked her to send us a check for the deposit we were out from our baker and she told him she would, IF I TOOK MY REVIEW DOWN! He told her I would do no such thing and then she told him he could come pick up the stands but we would have to work around her schedule. I can't even believe after more than 7,000 dollars that this is how we are being treated. Update - Jan 23, 2015. Still not returned! ---- I've been putting off writing this for almost two months, but I just want to get it out of the way and hopefully save anyone the stress I went through. I booked with Audrey for my wedding. Everything seemed fine at first, she was really nice in person... but then it started to get wonky from there. First the gratuity was whatever I wanted to give, then it was a set amount, then it was whatever I wanted to give. THE DAY BEFORE MY WEDDING, a magical deposit for the venue was required, even though we never discussed it. It was for security she said, since we had a bar, but I already paid her the $250 extra to have a bar. And I didn't see a security guard at my wedding. We met before the wedding for a tasting, and the food was good (really good, actually, as far as wedding catering goes), but what I told her I wanted for the centerpieces wasn't what she had done mockups of for us. We did like it though, so we picked what we wanted. Lo and behold, my husband I do our grand entrance and the centerpieces ARE NOT what we agreed on, there was some horrible fluffly floral piece of crap tablecloth on the sweetheart table. Some of our wedding party came late, and the staff WOULD NOT give them the food they asked for (more than one scoop of a specific item), but then someone working for her came out from the back and loaded their plate up with as much food as they wanted and took it in the back to eat it. The tables for the gifts and guestbook were not set up how we agreed. We provided her with games and toys for a kids table that never got set up. And we never got the things for it back. She didn't return the unused cups that we paid for our of our own pocket, she didn't return all the undrank booze (I KNOW we didn't go through all the champagne). Even with all this, I had a nice wedding, I married my husband, which is what it's about, but to top if off, after ALL THIS, she tells me she is going to return our cake stands for us (that we have a deposit on) and she doesn't do it. We follow up with her repeatedely and she says, this weekend, this weekend, this weekend and still nothing. It's been nearly TWO MONTHS since my wedding. It's not like we had some far off destintation. We used the location SHE OFFERED in Santa Anita, and our cake was made in PASADENA. It's not my fault that her office isn't where she has events. It's just insane, that this is still going on and that after ALL THE MONEY WE PAID, we are out deposits from OTHER VENDORS because of Audrey.

This month, my wedding was held as scheduled, and it received praise from all the guests. However,…read moreI truly cannot take credit for its success, as without Mandy, Dorris, Cecilia, and the other Amormagic staff who were present that day, the wedding would not have gone so smoothly. Looking back, when we decided to plan the wedding within six months, we were overwhelmed because there were simply too many choices, and we didn't know where to start. Fortunately, I came across Amormagic's wedding samples on Xiaohongshu (Little Red Book), and I was immediately captivated by their attention to detail and their keen sense of aesthetics. After sending them a message, I received a reply the very next day, and we quickly scheduled a video call. Mandy gave me a very professional first impression, asking me many questions I had never even thought about. Since my husband and I are both people who dislike hassle and lack creative ideas, we quickly decided to entrust Mandy with the entire wedding design and planning. Throughout the process, I deeply felt that hiring Mandy and her team for wedding planning was worth every penny--truly "value for money." Below is a summary of their services: Key Features: Quick Responses, Always Available, Patient, and Thoughtful During the wedding design process, there were many things I had never heard of or didn't understand. Mandy and Dorris always replied within a few hours, patiently explaining the differences between each option and how they applied to me. Actively Listened to Client Needs, Focused on Key Points, and Organized Since I had never imagined what my wedding would look like, Mandy and Dorris asked me about my preferences in movies and art, and they surprisingly designed a floral color scheme that left me in awe at first glance. They also cleverly incorporated elements from both my and my husband's cultural backgrounds, filling the design with thoughtful details. After the wedding, many guests praised the stunning little touches, and they were particularly delighted with the seating cards, which doubled as gifts. Clear Division of Labor and Smooth Communication From the design phase to the on-site arrangements on the wedding day, everything was well-organized. Every question I had was answered by a dedicated person, making communication seamless. High-Quality, Professional Vendors All the vendors recommended by Mandy exceeded my expectations. The floral arrangements, table linens, cake, DJ, and bridal makeup all delivered top-notch results. A Stress-Free Wedding Day On the wedding day, all the staff were highly professional and dedicated to their roles. The entire event went off without a hitch, except for a minor delay in the cake-cutting ceremony because I got carried away chatting with guests. Cecilia did give me a subtle hint with her eyes that it was time to move on, but I just couldn't help myself. As someone who never dreamed of being a princess but instead admired Heidi running through wildflowers, I am deeply grateful to Mandy and Dorris for uncovering this unspoken dream of mine and bringing it to life. They turned one of the most important days of my life from a vague idea into a beautiful and unforgettable reality.

Right after we decided on our wedding date, we started searching for a planner and came across Amormagic on RedNote. Their portfolio immediately caught our attention. They were so professional, patient, and incredibly detail-oriented. Every question we had -- no matter how big or small -- was answered quickly and thoughtfully. They guided us through every step with calmness and confidence, and their organization gave us complete peace of mind leading up to the big day. On the wedding day itself, everything ran flawlessly. The setup was stunning, the timeline flowed perfectly, and every little detail was handled so seamlessly behind the scenes that we never had to stress about anything. We could truly just be present, enjoy every moment, and spend time with our guests. The day honestly went by so fast -- we wish we could slow down time and relive it all over again because it was just that magical. From the emotional moments to the laughter and joy, everything felt effortless and beautifully coordinated thanks to this amazing team. We're beyond grateful for their support, care, and dedication. Thank you for making our wedding day not only perfect, but also deeply meaningful and unforgettable We couldn't have asked for a better planner or team -- highly, highly recommend to any couple who wants their dream wedding to come to life without the stress!

Whether you're starting from scratch or already have ideas, she guides you every step of the way, helping you stay on budget while knowing exactly where to save and where to splurge.

There will never be enough words to express how truly grateful we are for the incredible Aquafuzion…read moredream team. I've been following them since I was 14, and from the very beginning, I knew they would be a nonnegotiable for my wedding--and now, I can say with 100% certainty that choosing them was one of the best decisions we made. From day one, Debbie, Alondra, Stephanie, Rachel, Presilla, Frida, and Adriana poured their hearts into every single detail. They weren't just our wedding planners--they were our designers, our florists, our coordinators, our late-night therapists (yes, answering 1 AM and 2 AM texts!), and truly our fairy godmothers. Every event they touched--from our bridal shower to the big day--was pure magic. They helped us contact vendors, designed and created our stunning invitations, and even arranged florals for our bridal shower. On the wedding day itself, they were everywhere, making sure timelines were followed to the minute, guests were taken care of, vendors were managed, and every single detail was flawless. They even made sure we and our loved ones were fed, hydrated, and happy--which might sound small, but trust me, it's everything on a day like that. Austin and I didn't have to think twice about anything. They were ten steps ahead of us at all times. Their eye for detail, impeccable organization, and genuine care made this feel like the epitome of luxury service. And somehow, on top of all that, they still made us feel like family--like they were personally invested in making sure our day was unforgettable. I'm already dreaming up our next event just so we can work with them again. If you're looking for wedding planners, designers, florists--humans--who will pour their heart and soul into your day, look no further. Aquafuzion isn't just a vendor--they're a blessing.

What stood out most was their willingness to go above and beyond to ensure our needs were met. Many of our questions and concerns related to both planned/unexpected situations were always anticipated and addressed before we even had to ask. Their professionalism gave us peace of mind and allowed us to truly enjoy our wedding day without any stress. All of the vendors recommended by them such as the venue and DJ/MC were excellent.

This review is long long overdue, Cindy and her amazing team helped us execute our dream wedding…read moreback in September of 2022 in Malibu, and absolutely recommend them if you guys are even on the fence or looking for a wedding planner/coordinator. Please continue reading and stop looking elsewhere and be completely convinced that you guys should go with MLE immediately! MLE was involved as our Day of Coordinator and planning activities 6 weeks leading up to the big day. Cindy's experience, consideration, professionalism, and honesty (this is a huge one) made what could have been a very stressful day into a stress-free day, or least as stress free as a wedding day can get it, haha. As the days approached the big day, we were already pretty happy with MLE, but once the big day came, they completely kicked it up into high gear. They were so seamless in working in the background to make everything come together with the vendors, timing, handling of guests, etc. We had a delay due to the florist, but they handled it so well that the guests couldn't tell, only we could, and even when we tried to get involved, MLE assured us that it was taken care of, and not to worry. They even went above and beyond in moving some flowers to be better positioned around our mirror guest list, which elevated how the florist had originally planned for. They were very considerate and thoughtful for us by making sure appetizers were set aside for us while we were taking pictures, we were very pleasantly surprised to find a big bowl of our seafood items sitting at our couples table, since we definitely didn't get a chance to get to it. Throughout the night, they made a point to bring us drinks, dessert, help with a small crisis on my mom's side. I really couldn't have imagined having a better coordinator the day of, I wish I had another big event to plan, because I would absolutely go back to them for their services. AND the amazing service doesn't even stop at the wedding day! Their follow up emails to reflect back on what went wrong or what went well shows how much they care about their work. They were very meticulous in addressing any concerns we had that happened on the big day and most importantly, they were honest. They were truthful about the reasons why some things didn't go as planned, and that to us is the most important trait in a coordinator that you can trust them. In the end, they were instrumental in even getting us partial refunds from vendors because of them not holding completely true to their agreements. If you've read this to its end, you don't need to look elsewhere, hire Cindy and her team now! You won't regret it!

She also made sure to provide regular checklists of items to make sure we stayed on track, while also not putting too much pressure on us! Claire handled putting together a gorgeous design brief based on inspiration photos we gathered, which definitely helped as we went through the process of selecting and working with vendors--all of whom were also incredible! An important thing I also want to mention is that I had a sudden health issue flare up partway through our venue search, which set things back by a year. The team was incredibly understanding and checked in periodically while offering well wishes until I was ready to return to planning, and I deeply appreciate how patient they all were during such a difficult time. Overall we couldn't not have asked for a better planning team to work with, and we're so incredibly grateful to Mad Love Events for making our special day so perfect!
