Our experience with DJ Ukeim could not have been any better! He was professional and attentive to our needs and special requests. We have a diverse taste in music and DJ Ukeim was able to get it all in. He helped guide us through the different ambiances for the cocktail hour and into the dinner and dancing portion. He was on point working with our wedding coordinator to keep us on schedule throughout the entire reception. His flexibility and easy going vibe matched our style. When it was time to get people out on the dance floor he knew exactly what to do. It was obvious he knew how to read the vibe of our guests. He kept the party going till the last song. We had such a great time!! Thank you DJ Ukeim for making our night so special!! We will always remember how much fun everyone had. Special shoutout to Will and Dancing DJ Production. You made the booking process so easy we loved how organized and helpful the planning portal was. - Gabriel and Felicia

Heather and Tiffany did an amazing job! They arrived promptly on the wedding day and were quick and efficient. Their prices are very reasonable and their services are easy to understand. After a short description or inspiration photo, they immediately understood what each person wanted and got it right every time. Heather also styled my husband's long curly hair into a beautiful braid. She is the only one he trusts with his hair from this point forward! We had so much fun with them and made us all feel our best!

DJ Conner was absolutely amazing and my husband and I couldn't be happier with the dancing music and all the music played throughout the evening. He listened to our music needs, which were not the clearest at times, but nonetheless he came up with a great playlist that fit the diverse age range and what we were envisioning. It seemed that all the guests were dancing on the dance floor at some point in the evening. Just recently a guest from the wedding reached out commenting how Conner was the best wedding DJ they have ever heard. Conner brings a cool, sophisticated vibe that is truly great for all age demographics. Additionally, Conner was super professional, on time, and had state of the art sound equipment. He also did an incredible job micing the night and keeping the pace. The fact that I didn't want the night to end speaks volumes to how much I enjoyed our wedding and a big part of that was the music. Hiring the right DJ is one of the best wedding decisions we made and was also way more cost effective than a live band. To wrap this up, we are so thankful Conner decided to take his DJ talents to the wedding industry. I am sure his business will take off. Thank you Conner, we will always remember how you made our night so special and my brother's EPIC speech :)

I've been djing since I was 15 years old. I had a fascination for parties and events at an early age. I tagged along with my brother who dj'd at house parties back in the early 80's. I was hooked after seeing how much joy the music brought out in the crowd. I started buying my own 12" records, and it evolved into doing my own gigs: house parties, jr. high & high school dances, colleges, raves, underground parties, night clubs, weddings, corporate events, and so on. I started my DJ business in 1987, and have been honing my craft now for 3 decades. Thirty plus years later, I continue to love what I do. Now let's get the party started.

Angela was always honest and advising, guiding us through the process with professionalism and expertise. The quality of her work and support exceeded our expectations - she was more than we could have hoped for, truly knowledgeable and time-saving.

DJ Cameron and his team gave us the celebration of our dreams. Our family and friends wouldn’t leave dance floor and that’s the exact outcome we asked for and were hoping for when we sought out Cam's services. He asked us for a list of our favorite songs and filled in the gaps when we needed some inspiration. He's a HIGHLY skilled professional and we were through the roof happy that he pulled together all of our preferences of Motown, country, Latin, and hip hop into a nonstop party where each song the dance floor was packed! The sound quality was excellent and he navigated an outdoor courtyard setting and an indoor banquet hall and the sound was full, balanced and clear in each of the venue spaces. The PhotoBooth and uplights were a fantastic touch, the props were also super fun and we captured moments we’ll cherish forever.

As a mom, all you want is for your daughter to feel special on her wedding day. They made her feel like a QUEEN. The photos of her walking down the aisle took my breath away, I can still hear the music when I look at them. The video captured my husband’s tears, and it melts my heart every time I watch. The editing is so elegant, nothing feels cheap or rushed. They even included the smallest moments, like my daughter fixing her veil with me by her side. Those pictures I will treasure forever.

I truly recommend Nick and his team! They really did an amazing job from day one, the zoom call, answering questions, sending forms to fill out, etc. The day of my wedding the videographer that was assigned to us did such a good job and was so well educated and thoughtful at all times. I loved that he was from Argentina so I could speak to him in Spanish since I am from Venezuela. I knew the editing work would take some time but it was worth the wait!! Everything Nick and his team delivered to us, the highlight video, teaser video and the film of our wedding was phenomenally done. Our families were very satisfied and impressed with the work. One of the most important pieces of the whole wedding I wanted to have recorded was my 5 minute dance with my husband. We prepared a whole set with 4 different songs that showcased our cultures (Latin and Persian) and wow the editing of our dance was just done to perfection. My husband and I were super happy watching every single second of it and reliving the moment. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart from capturing our most special day, our union in marriage, with such professionalism and aesthetics!!! I will always recommend you :)

We were so lucky to find PKA Photo and Video to capture the memories of our wedding day! We had an intimate wedding on Coronado Beach with just our family members, and we absolutely love the highlight video Mia made for us! What made it even more special was how she was able to incorporate the personal song we wrote and sang with each other. Hearing the groom's guitar strumming and our own voices singing the duet in the background was so meaningful. Listening to our vows, (which were clearly recorded - by the way), and seeing the beautiful video clips of our family on the beach is a cherished gift. We are so blessed to have this video to replay when we look back on this most precious day of our lives. It makes us so emotional thinking about what happened to us with our previous videographer, and how they came to our rescue by agreeing to be our videographer at the last minute. We are truly grateful. Mia and LaRon are an amazing team, and we highly recommend their photography services!

Lauren, our day-of coordinator, was a total ROCKSTAR. She made us feel so comfortable and at ease the entire day — organized, calm, and truly everything you could ever want in a coordinator. Because of her, everything ran perfectly, and we were able to just soak it all in. A huge shoutout to Chef Austin — the food was phenomenal! Every single guest was raving about how delicious everything was, from appetizers to dinner. Our banquet captain, Sierra, went above and beyond! She was so attentive, on top of every little detail, and even snapped some adorable behind-the-scenes photos and sent them to us afterward — so thoughtful and sweet! The rest of our staff — Aden, Patty, Lilly, Ava, and Jayln — were absolutely outstanding. They made sure everything flowed seamlessly and treated us and our guests with so much kindness and care. Our bartenders, Rachel and Julio, crushed it! The drinks were amazing, and everyone was having the best time thanks to them. And of course, the planning team — Angela, Mikayla, Katie, DJ, and Haley — thank you for making the planning process so easy and enjoyable. Every question was answered quickly, every detail handled with care. Lastly, a big thank-you to GM Austin for going the extra mile and helping coordinate special touches like golf for the guys — truly above and beyond. The Fallbrook team is unmatched. Our wedding day was everything we dreamed of (and more), and we owe it all to this incredible team. We’re forever grateful!

Michael and his assistant earn 10 stars out of 10. We hand-picked all our vendors and planned our wedding very carefully ourselves, as we both appreciate the highest excellence, as well as good vibes. Michael possesses a unique array of traits that we’d say are only found in one to three percent of the population, in any industry. Not only is he extremely proficient in the science and art of videography, but he is also communicative, personable, and professional. Michael’s highlights video of our wedding is a masterpiece. The video flows very smoothly. He picked music that is very thoughtful of our personal style; it’s perfect for “who we are”! In short, his video exceeded what we expected. It’s obvious to us that Michael spent much time and effort to craft an expressive video, which combines the visual lushness of our setting, speeches, our vows, audience reactions… the list goes on. We can't thank him enough for helping us relive our special day through his creation!

Words truly cannot express how happy we were with Abbey Catering for both our wedding coordination and catering. From the very beginning, Will Konecki guided us through the overwhelming process of selecting a caterer/coordinator with patience, kindness, and so much support. Once we signed our contract, Petr Trebin became our main point of contact, and he was absolutely incredible—always quick to respond, proactive, and reassuring every step of the way. Our wedding day (8/31/25) was nothing short of perfect, and I still can’t believe how flawlessly everything came together. The Abbey team worked seamlessly behind the scenes, and we received endless compliments from our guests about how delicious the food was and how smoothly the day flowed. On top of it all, Petr went above and beyond by taking candid photos throughout the day and surprising us with 60 images the very next morning. Seeing those photos before even getting a sneak peek from our professional photographers (Deborah Shields and Miranda Smith, who were also wonderful to work with) was such a special and unexpected gift. Abbey’s professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care made our day unforgettable. Their five-star reputation is 100% deserved, and we could not recommend them more highly. If you are lucky enough to have Abbey Catering as part of your wedding, you will be in the very best hands.

Joanne and Jamie were easily one of my favorite vendors for my wedding. I got married April 7, 2024 and had my hair trial on February 3. I found Joanne’s company through one of my Instagram friends, who also got her hair done with them. I was immediately taken with them for two reasons: 1) They had no minimum person requirement 2) they were so so so quick in their email communications (something I found was super rare when looking for hairstylists). Immediately upon visiting for the trial, I knew I was in good hands. They were both so sweet and really took into consideration my preferences, veil & dress, and venue when making suggestions. I felt so comfortable with them (and they even gave me some tea!). On the day of the wedding, Jamie arrived promptly at our getting ready location and was quite efficient and effective in doing my hair. I never was worried that my hair would fall out during the wedding and the fact that I never once thought about my hair all night is a testament to how well it was done. And as I look back on my photos, I constantly look at my hair, impressed by how well it stayed curled and beautiful all day (even as I danced for 2 hours straight). I could never recommend Joanne and Jamie more for your big day.

Working with Stephany and Erika with Forevermore was such a wonderful experience and I am so so beyond happy that we went with them to help keep our day organized and on track. In terms of planning: We got married at Monserate Winery and they knew the venue and everything relating to it like the back of their hand. This eased so much stress for us. From the very start of our meetings with them I felt taken care of and a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. Scheduling meetings was easy and they were always able to answer my questions. They were in contact with all of our vendors and made sure everyone else had what they needed. Truly the months leading up to the wedding I was able to focus on other items and felt like their team was on track and taking care of everything they needed to! Wedding Day: I had not a single ounce of stress day of. Erika and Stephany took care of anything and everything. They always had a beverage ready for me/my husband, kept the timeline completely on track, and were able to take care of anything we needed spur of the moment. They set up all my decor exactly as I was hoping and everything looked so beautiful. Things could not have gone more smoothly. People always say something will go wrong day of but genuinely if anything did, I didn't know about it and Stephany and Erika took care of it. I would recommend everybody to pick Stephany and her team to help plan their day, I cannot suggest them enough! 1000000/10. Everyone in our bridal party/guests thought they were so lovely to work with as well. Thank you Forevermore Team!

  • Starts at $300
  • Serves Descanso, CA

Hi! My name is Ayleen and I have been a makeup artist for 5 years. In my few years of experience I have been able to learn a lot from working in photoshoots, along with other artists and at countless weddings. From my first bridal makeup I’ve done on a close friend, I knew that’s what I wanted to do as my job. It took a few years to build my career and I am so glad I chased after my dream of becoming a bridal makeup artist. My favorite part of what I do is being able to be a part of such a special day in your life and there’s nothing that makes me happier than making girls feel their best.

Awarded Best of Zola
As a makeup lover, I was really picky about who was going to do my glam for my special day. Ayleen uses quality products, is super patient and precise, and was very collaborative as I described what I wanted. The final look was a soft brown halo eye with hints on pink and sparkle with a natural/dewy finish and just enough contour. She went above and beyond and even did my neckline and shoulders to accommodate my strapless dress I LOVED it! I was bathed in setting spray so the look was sealed in and lasted all day, even through dancing and rain. Ayleen also recommended someone to do hair for me, which was perfect all around! If you’re looking for somebody with a broad range of skills, an experienced network, and works quickly and efficiently, look no further!

My husband and I could not have imagined a better wedding experience and we are so grateful we chose to have our special day at the beautiful Secret Garden! We got married on December 14, 2024 and it was the most beautiful day we could have imagined! We booked the venue over a year in advance and throughout the entire planning process, the entire team was so available and responsive. As the day approached, we met with our day-of coordination Laura and she was truly amazing!! She helped me create the day of my dreams and was very prompt in responding to any of our concerns. She helped bring our vision to life and I am so grateful!! The very inclusive experience at The Secret Garden was also so helpful. We ended up going through our own food vendor for BBQ for dinner, but everything else was seamless and really helped ease the wedding planning stress. The photography and videography team was so amazing and captured our day so beautifully. I still cry tears of joy looking at our pictures and videos from the special day! :') The DJ services provided were also amazing and we couldn't have been happier with DJ Jason Lyons! Overall, we could not be happier with our experience at The Secret Garden. It was worth every penny to marry my best friend at such a beautiful place surrounded by everyone we love!! :)
