Lit Cocktails LLC

  • Serves Redondo Beach, CA

My name is Diamond Davis. I am a former restaurant manager, event coordinator and bartender. My restaurant closed due to Covid-19 so I thought of a way I could still do what I love while providing others with happiness and relief. One of the happiest days of my life was my wedding day. Although happy, it was stressful and nerve-wracking. Just prior to walking down the aisle, I took a shot to ease my nerves. Sounds weird but, I thought, "I'd like to ease people's nerves on their big day." Thus you have, Lit Cocktails! Providing you with ease and relief on your big day--- Alcoholically.

Diamond from Lit Cocktails was an absolute gem at our wedding! Her custom cocktails were the talk of the evening, and she brought an incredible level of creativity to our special day. The drinks she crafted were not only delicious but also beautifully presented, adding a touch of elegance to the entire event. Diamond's professionalism and warm personality made her a joy to work with. Our guests were thrilled, and our wedding wouldn't have been the same without her. If you're looking for a top-notch bartender, Diamond is the one to choose!

  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Redondo Beach, CA

Ellamae Productions is a full-service, bespoke event design and production studio based in Los Angeles, available worldwide. We are experts in curating weddings which feel unique and intentional, an art form which we have perfected with over 10 years of experience in wedding design and production. ‍ At Ellamae Productions, you can expect a high-touch client experience and white glove service throughout the planning process to execution. It is our top priority to ensure you feel relaxed, present throughout your wedding weekend, and confident in our team to deliver excellence in every detail.

My husband and I can confidently say we would not have had our dream wedding if it wasn't for Michelle and Ellamae Productions! My partner and I worked with Michelle as the main coordinator for our wedding for over a year as we planned. Michelle is a hard worker, a creative visionary, and the most organized professional I've ever seen. She is very warm and approachable, great at managing family dynamics and vendors and getting the job done. Our celebration wasn't traditional by any means: we wanted to walk down the aisle to orchestral arrangements of video game music, have our first dance under both tree boughs and chandeliers, and even feature an artisanal tea bar. Michelle made it all happen, and then some. I will never forget being shuttled down to our ceremony location and seeing our reception setup all laid out - everything came together so beautifully, it really felt like our dream came to life. The best thing about working with Michelle is that she deeply and truly loves what she does, and you can feel that joy through every step of the process. Every vendor she recommended to us was the same as her: passionate about their work and in love with weddings as an art form and celebration. She was always available when we had a question or request. We had the privilege of meeting a large part of the Ellamae team on our wedding weekend - everyone was professional, cordial, and on the ball. Anytime we needed anything, Michelle or her team would materialize out of thin air and be there to help us. It was an absolutely spectacular event, truly magical - our friends and family cannot stop talking about it. Weddings are beautiful things, but also horribly stressful at times. In those darker moments, we were both so happy we had Michelle in our corner. Michelle really was the MVP of our celebration and we will always be grateful for the experience of working with her. For the amount of time and effort she puts in, she is also quite affordable! Make your celebration unforgettable and impeccable and work with Ellamae Productions!

Made by Meg is proud to continue the legacy of the historic La Venta Inn nestled in the hills of Palos Verdes Estates. La Venta Inn has enjoyed a full, rich history on the Palos Verdes Peninsula. Nationally recognized as a California Point of Historical Interest, the Inn dates back to the early 1920’s, when a group of international businessmen set out to develop the ‘ideal residential community.’ The landmark ocean view estate is a beautifully restored 1920’s Spanish villa and used to entertain guests from the world over through exceptional weddings and events. We are thrilled to bring the delicious Made by Meg cuisine and our incredible hospitality to this one of a kind property.

La Venta was a wonderful venue for our October wedding. They handled so many of the complicated parts of our event, the price was very reasonable, the food was delicious, and of course the venue itself was stunning. La Venta even helped us find our amazing planner, Helen Vonghack (@eighteenplacecards), and our whole event went off without a hitch. Photos attached by our amazing wedding photographer, @zoomtheory

We work with brides to create their DREAM wedding day look that will be stunning on camera/HD, last all night long, and allow our brides to feel like themselves.

Awarded Best of Zola
I’ve always loved hair and makeup, so getting it professionally done was one of the things I was most excited about for my wedding. Choosing a HMU artist was overwhelming, especially with so many highly recommended options. Emily Lynn & Co. stood out to me because of their natural approach. Their website had an editorial yet relaxed and fun vibe that resonated with me. As a graphic designer, a beautifully designed brand and website played a big role in all my vendor decisions—but Emily Lynn & Co.'s work truly spoke for itself. I had the pleasure of working with Colette as my lead artist, and I can’t recommend her enough. She made the trial experience so comfortable by coming to my apartment, which was so nice. Colette really understood my vision—I wanted to look like myself, not too overdone, but with a touch of soft glam, and she nailed it perfectly. I also had Josie do hair for a few wedding party members, and everyone looked incredible. The atmosphere while getting ready was fun yet wonderfully calm. I highly recommend Emily Lynn & Co. to anyone looking for a top-notch HMU team!

Awarded Best of Zola
I was on the fence about a coordinator but since I only had 4 months to plan I knew I needed some help. Agnes was absolutely amazing. She responded to me at 11pm when I was overthinking a floor plan, was extremely responsive via text and email every time I reached out. I am very detail oriented and thank god she is exactly the same. Everything from the timeline to the floor plan to the set up list was meticulously put together. Day of Agnes couldn't be there so my day of coordinator was Brenda who was absolutely amazing. There was one snafu with a rental company that did not deliver on time and Brenda snapped into action. Even Agnes who was at a different event put time and effort into helping find a solution from a far. I literally didn't think of anything on the day of my wedding except having fun which is exactly how it should be. Agnes came to me as a recommendation from a close friend and I would absolutely recommend her and her team over and over again.

Kristina Lee Photography

  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,700
  • Serves Redondo Beach, CA

Born in the desert (AZ Baby!) and relocated to the sea. I firmly believe that a good day starts with a cup of coffee and ends with glass of red wine. I own more jewelry than I do clothes and in my opinion, too much gold does not exist. My biggest passion will always be photography. I’ve had a camera in my hands since I was a little girl – I would even set up “stylized shoots” in my family’s living room that consisted of sheets pinned to the wall, my friends and fake flowers (embarrassing, but I’m not kidding!). I strive for those editorial, Vogue-like shots, but I really live for those private, in-between moments.

Awarded Best of Zola
We loved every minute with Kristina! She traveled to Arizona to shoot our engagement photos and she came all the way to Jamaica to shoot our Wedding. She has such a creative way of capturing the beauty of a single moment so effortlessly. I know, years from now when I see these photos, my heart will still race the way it did that day. For that, I will be forever grateful! When you think about it, there's very little remaining of your wedding day. The flowers have gone, the guests have flown home, you are back at work. About the only thing that remains is the photos, so I think it is a great investment to get the absolute best, and for that I would recommend Kristina Lee Photography every time!

The Revery is both an indoor and outdoor space, updated with modern amenities including HVAC, no noise curfew, tons of natural light, and perfect for the modern couple who is looking for a hidden gem.

Awarded Best of Zola
What can I say? The Revery will FOREVER be a place that holds a special place in my husband and I's heart. Monica, the owner, is such a pleasure to work with. She is very particular but she is upfront about her rules from the very beginning and never tried to add any hindrance to what we wanted. She was super communicative and kind throughout the whole process. Then - there's the venue itself. We ended up having all three events there. Ceremony (outdoor veranda), Cocktail Hour (upstairs photo studio), Dinner (indoor veranda). Even though it's a "white" space where you have to bring everything in, we LOVED this component because we felt like we were able to design our wedding from start to finish. The blank canvas provided us with an opportunity to really add our own personality. This was the first decision we made when it came to our wedding planning and it was the BEST one we could've made. We love you, Revery!! xo

Hi there, my name is Caleb but most people call me Cook. I spent almost 13 years in the southeast filming weddings, events, corporate gigs and commercials. I moved to California in 2012 and pursued a different career. A couple years ago I decided to get back into event videography and started Cook Captures. When shooting events I have a very hands off candid style. I love to capture people naturally having fun, enjoying the day and creating memories. Every event I film is unique and each film ends up with it’s own story and narrative that fit the couple, venue, guests and overall vibe of your wedding.

Cook and Peter were so great to work with. I appreciated their understanding of how difficult the cost of weddings have gone up and how they were willing to cooperate reasonably throughout the whole process. Cook was able to capture all the shots I was hoping to have captured and his talent is truly evident. My husband and I were hoping to get some footage within the whole gallery of the not so “picture-perfect” to keep memories authentic and to see the natural candid side of our special day. Cook delivered that exactly through his videos. I truly recommend working with Cook if you are looking for someone to capture a meaningful event in your life. He is also so versatile in styles that he truly can provide you exactly what you are looking for or thinking through collaboration.

I have been a professional freelance makeup artist for 4 years now. I also worked at Sephora for 2 years as a makeup artist, and earned my Esthetician license before that in 2017. I have always been an artist at heart but did not touch makeup until I was 18 years old! But thankfully my love and talent for art and painting easily transferred over to makeup artistry, and I'm very thankful that I can encourage my creativity while making people feel beautiful on their important days of life.

I connected with Jaycee (Jackie) when working in LA because we both have a very similar style. When moving out of LA I passed her to all of my clients and my top recommended makeup artist and I now travel back for large events that we both work together. Jackie is passionate and skilled in her craft and most importantly she works with quality products and follows strict sanitation protocols. She is my favorite artist to work with and the only one I would personally recommend in my place for any job. All of my past clients that work with her have nothing but excellent things to say!

Johnny Mixology

  • Bar services & beverages
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Redondo Beach, CA

Our main goal is to provide exceptional bespoke cocktails, delivered to you through an elegant and entertaining bartending experience. From developing your custom cocktail program to creating budgets & sourcing ingredients, we work with you every step of the way to make sure you will have a stupendously fun cocktail party right in your own backyard. Not only do the cocktails have to look and taste amazing, the experience has to be absolutely incredible. It is crucially important to us that everyone on our team is genuinely and authentically personable on top of being an exceptional mixologist.

To start, I first met Johnny when I was looking for a bartender for my birthday. It wasn’t an easy task. I am a harsh critic and I also don’t typically drink(by choice). I’m just not interested in the taste anymore. I wanted to find someone who could make a drink that I even I would want to drink. Because if you’re that good, then I know all of my friends would love you. Johnny was that and beyond. Let’s add to the birthday topic that it started raining in Setember in LA. When does that even happen? Never but it happened that one day on my birthday. I had an outdoor venue and we(at the last minute and on the day of) scrambled to get tents and a canopy for the bar (that I thought was useful but wasn’t). Johnny was a team player. He made it work through the rain and the sprinkles. By the end of the night, I want to say he was near soaked, but he was truly a highlight of the night. He didn’t complain or cancel. He not only has skill, but charisma. He makes homemade mixers too! What! He truly made the best of it and made sure that I had an absolutely fantastic birthday despite the random weather mishap. To this DAY, my friends ask about him! I always recommend him for any of my clients that are looking for a bartender. 100% I haven’t met better. Fast forward to me coordinating, and now he is one of my preferred vendors for weddings because I can trust that he will not only get the job done, but also be on top of things without me having to double check anything. That truly requires trust and I know that I can put my full faith in him. I don’t know if HE even knows how much that means to me. I know that this was long, but it just goes to show you that Johnny is really friggin fantastic. I hope that you read this and it encourages you to book. I hope you get to experience Johnny Mixology. :) With Love, B

Where to begin? As a photographer myself, I thought I'd have a really hard time choosing a wedding photographer, but when I saw Nate and Amanda's work, my search was over. If you're having trouble choosing a photographer/videographer, you can stop here. Nate and his second shooter, Ashley were an absolute dream to work with. They made us so comfortable and actually helped in ways I wasn't expecting. They kept us on time so we didn't miss any important moments but still managed to capture everything we wanted with ease. They simultaneously grabbed video while shooting photos without interruption. Nate is creative and will work with you to figure out the best settings and ways to capture who you are as a couple and document the day so you never forget it. Cannot thank The Shalom Imaginative enough for their creative collaboration and attention to detail!

Athena was a dream to work with! She was our wedding photographer and went above and beyond to give us a great experience. And the photos came out gorgeous! I am a plus-size woman and Athena is a safe photographer for big people to work with - she made me feel valued and shot me beautifully. One hundred percent recommend her. If she was still living in our area, I’d be finding a bunch of other reasons to have her photograph us some more.

I had my make up done by Shahd for my engagement photoshoot. I looked and felt so glamorous! It was really important to me to have a flawless and “glowy” complexion which is exactly what I got. Shahd had a great selection of false lashes which looked so pretty and she really helped me get an even better than expected look for my photos! The make up lasted all day and I didn’t even need to touch anything up (except my lips). I’m all for going with someone who has a lot of experience so that I can trust them to work their magic & she did just that. I highly recommend and will use Shahd again for future events when I need a pro!

It all started for me at a very young age. In the early 90's when it was all about fashion and the super model, I would OBSESS over the style network and watch runway shows for hours. Fast forward to post high school choices I went to school for esthetics and also got a degree in natural health so that I could offer an additional layer to my makeup knowledge and services. Not soon after I graduated from school I freelanced for the best cosmetic company at that time. Five years after being a brand ambassador for M.A.C I branched off on my own to open a freelance hair and makeup artistry which I eventually moved to Caliornia.

LA Hair and Makeup did a PHENOMENAL job with my wedding hair and makeup! Ashanta (the owner) is so kind, professional, brilliant, and talented. She and her team did makeup for myself and 14 members of my wedding party, and did everything on schedule and to a very high standard of artistry. All of my bridesmaids choose pretty different makeup looks and Ashanta’s team did it all perfectly. I wanted my own hair and makeup look to be sort of vintage-inspired and natural, and I truly could not have been happier with how my bridal hair and makeup turned out— Ashanta is a genius!!

I am so glad that we booked 1920 video. After speaking with Brandt I knew it was a good fit because he understood my vision for our wedding video. I could tell he had a passion for storytelling and the art of filmmaking. He was able to capture our love story and delivered a beautiful work of art that we can cherish for the years to come.

My name is Tonimari Gemeniano and people are my passion. I've always loved planning events, weddings being my favorite. I am very fulfilled at helping others through the planning process, especially in alleviating the stresses of planning. Even more so, I am driven to ensure the vision they have for one of the most important days of their lives, comes into fruition. It is always an honor, privilege, and joy to be a part of your wedding day!

"It was a pleasure working with Toni! She is such a sweetheart and treated me like a friend. She went above and beyond what I was looking for. Toni was very organized and had a lot of different ideas and suggestions to fill the missing pieces when I felt lost. At the start of my wedding planning process, I was very overwhelmed but Toni’s monthly meetings made things run smoothly. Toni went beyond my expectations of my vision board for my decorations. She took note of all the little details that I wanted. My wedding turned out just as I imagined it and went very smoothly thanks to Toni. Also on top of what Toni did, she did an amazing job while being pregnant. Thank you so much to Toni and her team." -Kathy

Hiring Mandy to do my wedding makeup and bridesmaid makeup was the best decision ever. I wanted 'soft glam' and she did it absolutely perfectly. I am super picky when it comes to makeup and it was so nice not having to stress the day of wedding because I knew after our trial, everyone would look amazing. We all felt so pretty and confident and that is why hiring a good & trusted makeup artist is so important. My wedding makeup photographed beautifully and my bridesmaids and mother were literally glowing, saying they've never felt more beautiful. I would recommend Mandy to any of my friends getting married because not only is she the best at what she does, but she is also super enjoyable and fun to work with.

For both our engagement and wedding photos, she took the initiative to scout the nearby locations we were considering and was very responsive throughout the whole process. My wife and I had no idea what poses to take during our photoshoots, but Sally was very kind and patient in walking us through everything. The photos turned out amazing! She was able to capture the joyful moments, the funny moments, and everything in between. We're so glad we chose Sally as our wedding and engagement photographer.

I'm admittedly wary when it comes to the Wedding Industry and all of it's bells/whistles/expectations, and at the same time, I believe wholeheartedly in the power of community, love, commitment, and collective joy. I think that weddings-- in all of their forms and reclamations-- ultimately serve a great purpose in reminding us of these gifts. I come from a long line of meticulous documenters and hold a degree in Sociology, all of which informs the way I approach photography. I am curious about people, am in awe of the display of emotion, and am passionate about the ways in which we construct family and community.

My husband and I worked with Kenzie for our engagement session in the summer of 2021 and our wedding in the spring of 2022. As you can tell from the timeline both sessions were at the peak of the Pandemic. This season was filled with excitement but also stress as we balanced our family's health, our deepest desires for the wedding, and the weight of the global pandemic. Kenzie gave us the peace that we so desperately needed. All in all, she was our favorite wedding vendor. After our initial onboarding Zoom call, my husband and I turned to each other and screamed did we just make a new best friend?! She is not only professional but personal. She has a great artistic vision but also respected the direction we gave. Kenzie takes a photojournalistic approach to her work and because of that, we feel like these moments are enshrined in history! My favorite Kenzie touch was the pre-wedding survey she provided us that helped her understand what emotions we had going into "the most important day of our lives". She prompted us with questions about the relationship dynamics between our family and friends, and the quirky details of our love, and our answers allowed her to capture more than just a single snapshot in time. Kenzie's photos capture FEELINGS. Thank you thank you thank you and we cannot wait to work with you for our next life event!!
