Serenity Weddings

  • Offers 2 services
  • Starts at $1,800
  • Serves Ventura, CA
  • Offer

I started in the wedding industry when I found bridal world in 2018. Building a career in bridal brought me back to Los Angeles from Seattle, back to family and into a world where I could immerse myself in all things bridal and weddings. I worked my way up as a stylist to the couture level, managing one of the flagship stores in LA and specializing in custom, one of a kind designs as a stylist. I learned more and more about weddings, and one day started day-of coordinating for friends and family. That grew to a passion and led to the birth of Serenity Weddings.

This was my first and hopefully not my last time working with Desiree, with over 2000 wedding performed here in the USA I wish all planners had the same work ethic as her. She was on top of everything throughout the event, always checking in to make sure not just the Bride & Groom where ok but all the vendors also. Her attention to detail went above and beyond. You will not be disappointed if you hire her for your next event.

Mindy & Co. Events 

5.0

  • Offers 5 services
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Ventura, CA

Mindy started her journey many many years ago when she worked as an assistant for Tracy and David Murdock. Her time spent with the Murdock family taught her so much about how to be successful, how to treat people, and how to anticipate the needs and wants of others. She traveled the world meeting people from other cultures and backgrounds. Spending time with two such extraordinary role models was the Catullus she needed to become the person she is today and gave her the confidence she needed to start her own business.

My husband and I were so happy with our day-of coordinators, Teri and Mindy. We felt like they went above and beyond our expectations in terms of how well they communicated with us preparing for the wedding. On the day-of, they made sure everything ran smoothly and on schedule (: We did run behind schedule later in the evening (as expected with any wedding, mostly due to some family drama), but they managed to get us caught up because they were very efficient at getting all of the vendors on the same page! We got so many compliments from our wedding party and guests saying the flow events appeared very smooth, and there were very few, minor hiccups, which is a huge accomplishment for a wedding in my eyes! I can honestly say I don't think our wedding day could have gone any better, and it would not have been possible without our coordinators working so hard to make sure everyone knew where to go and what to do. I also greatly appreciated their attention to detail, they set up my decorations exactly how I requested and even provided a checklist of items for me to hand to them at the rehearsal. This was such a lifesaver, we would not have had anything to cut our cake with had they not lended us their knife and server! Cannot recommend Mindy & Co Events enough!

Hi, I am Francine, certified, licensed and insured wedding planner/coordinator, and I’m based out of Ventura, California, servicing Ventura, LA, and surrounding counties. I began WedWithCinEvents simply because I love love love weddings! Some people hate the planning and executing part of weddings, but I see it as more of a fun hobby. I enjoy putting together various things that go into making a wedding amazing and seeing everything come together beautifully.

Jay and I got married this past March 2023. I found Francine on a facebook wedding group. Francine did an amazing job with wedding coordinating and floral arrangements. I had an image of how our neon sign and arch would look like and she made it even more beautiful than I imagined! I wanted specific wildflowers and she fulfilled my request and made the floral arrangements so beautiful. I also requested to ensure the timeline was on time because I’ve been to weddings that the guests are sitting there and nothing was happening and I did not want to waste any time at the wedding reception. She did great with the rest of my vendors, timeline and organization as well. She was honest, direct and knowledgeable about the Wedding industry. She did everything I requested and more! The venue kept asking me to add on things which cost more and she told me directly that it is a waste of money, which I love because I am a budget bride. I love that she is honest with her clients and recommends what looks the best and cost effective. I feel that she is very approachable like a friend but at the same time she keeps her professionalism. She made our dream wedding into reality! I could not have asked for a better wedding coordinator and florist. I don’t know what I would do without her. Thank you so much Francine!

They are organized, kind, friendly and resourceful; everything you need by your side on your wedding day! My shoes broke- Evelyn had flip-flops I could wear.

We love Tavi! Her personality, charm, expertise, sensibilities: all were necessary to our wedding day! We had Tavi coordinating for two months leading up to our wedding, but she supported us from the beginning (above and beyond what was laid out). From the very first meeting, we felt more at ease. She provided access to an online wedding planning tool that became invaluable throughout the process, and she had solid recommendations for other vendors (many of whom we hired and loved). We also hired Tavi to help with our wedding design, and she tied our ideas together beautifully. Tavi’s wedding expertise was so critical to our big day, and it wouldn’t have turned out so AMAZING without her help. All the stress and anxiety we felt in that week was smoothed out by her calm and professional handling of everything. We were able to enjoy our wedding day fully–all we had to do was show up! We truly feel she was not just a coordinator, but a part of our wedding, and a new friend!

We hired Samantha as our "day of coordinator" as it was required by my venue. She went above and beyond the "day of" aspect and was with me from 8 months out. She would text and call to check in and ask if I needed assistance with anything. If I started to stress on something, she would handle it. As a mom, and full time student, who was buying a house, and planning a wedding, she brought ease to the wedding planning process. She had her own baby during this time as well! My reception space turned out beautiful thanks to her, her assistant and my mother-in-law's (and some family) diligent help/work. She sent me pictures of the venue space as I hid out waiting for my ceremony. She is very kind, and I think she did a great job!

Highly recommend CDE! We worked closely with Cassandra since our wedding was based in LA and both her and Glennie were extremely detail oriented and helpful in ensuring we reached our dream wedding goals. We had started working with Calmerin just 6 months before our 120 person two location wedding. We had so many questions and they made sure to help guide us along the way. Their rate was very reasonable and they had great experience in assisting us with various areas of the event. Their organizational tools via Google docs which were very detailed allowing us to make sure all pieces of details aligned.

Working with Michelle has been an absolute pleasure. We selected Michelle because of her long successful track record and also because we have close friends who admitted that Michelle was to be trusted. Selecting a planner can be difficult but thankfully we were blessed with the best one! My wife expects nothing but perfection so the communication between her and Michelle was constant. Everytime my wife had a question or some reassurance; Michelle was there to assist immediately. As a husband, what I appreciated the most was her attention to detail and her calmness. She would always jot down all of our wishes and requests in her notebook in which I respected because there were a lot of asks on our end. Such a professional, responsible, trustworthy person. Thank you Michelle and to the team for allowing my wife and I to enjoy our special day. I would trust your work with my family and friends.

We are so grateful for brandi! Because our contract said we had to have a wedding planner for the day.We thought we could just get one just to show.But after interviewing the first one, We knew we needed someone who would definitely care about our special day and all it's details. We interviewed for four others and we just didn't find what we were looking for: professionalism, attention to details, demeanor that showed they would have a quick command of our large bridal party- until we met Brandi!!! What a God sent! Upon meeting her, her genuine care for our wedding was felt immediately. My now husband and I were very organized and already had all the details we wanted.We just need someone excellent to execute them and Brandi did that and so much more. Right away, She contacted all of our vendors, grabbed all of our contracts and organized them. She had an awesome timeline made capturing every detail we explained to her. She was always available to talk or text when we had random questions and always gave thoughtful answers. During the rehearsal, she was in charge and fun! Her loving heart showed when I showed her my bridal bouquet that was full of sad white roses. She made it her mission to find me a new bouquet the day of the wedding! Went to four florists! Just for me! On the wedding day, Brandi and her assistants were excellently dressed in black and with walkies. They set-up my ballroom, beautifully drapped my arch, and aisle chairs just as I dreamed. She and her team were with us until the end. One of the best things we did for this wedding was getting Brandi on board. She's the epitome of small sacrifice BIG, BIG reward. She shows amd makes you feel that coordinating your wedding is her true passion and service. We loved her so much, we referred her to another friend and now her team will be at that wedding! Thank you so much Brandi and your team.

It is so hard to put into words what Natalie and her team at Surraya Events meant to us. She created the best day of our lives flawlessly and we will always be grateful to her! From the second we first spoke we knew she was incredibly attentive to detail. Without skipping a beat she would recall comments we made earlier in the conversation and circle back to answer any previous questions.

She has a forever friend and fan in us and we can't wait to watch her continue to master this industry!!
