I have worked with Amanda Brooks on a couple of previous occasions, so when it came time for my wedding photos it was a no-brainer for me. Amanda is creative, professional and a really made us feel at ease. I felt as though she was part of the wedding party, taking just as much care into the planning with wonderful ideas for great shots. The photos came out beautiful and we couldn’t be happier. These pictures captured true moments of our special day. I would highly recommend Amanda Brooks to anyone looking for a great wedding photographer.

Rossi Music was fabulous! They provided exactly what we wanted for our ceremony and cocktail hour. A 3-piece jazz trio did the entire ceremony, here comes the bride and all! Our guests are still complimenting on how great they were and what a special touch it added to our wedding. Rebecca Rossi was extremely helpful and I highly recommend them!

Really great price and very easy to order. All of our guests complimented on how nice the invitations were. We replaced the ribbon with our own black satin ribbon and they looked great!

I've been going to Torrance Bakery for years, so it was a no-brainer on what bakery I would use for my wedding cake. We had a white cake with lemon chiffon filling and french cream frosting. It was delicious!

Dana was excellent! My hair and makeup were beautiful, as well and my maid of honor and junior bridesmaid. There isn't anything I could complain about. Dana is so nice and such a pleasure to work with. I felt their rate is fair and every bit worth the quality and value. I highly recommend Design Visage!

Beautiful! Occasions is quite a hidden gem. I fell in love with the venue from the moment I walked in the door. French windows line the front of the building and the garden in the back was the prefect setting for our ceremony. Stephen and Audry were so nice and helpful every step of the way during our planning.

Our guests comments were "this was the best wedding we've been to", "the location is gorgeous", "the food was excellent", "everything was perfect." And, it pretty much was perfect, with the exception of an unusual heat wave and record-breaking temps that day, but who would have thought it would be 93 degrees is El Segundo???

I wanted an elegant garden wedding and could have not imagined having my wedding (ceremony & reception) anywhere but Occasions. It proved to be everything I was hoping for.

I stumbled upon this florist by accident and it was a really great find! You cannot beat their prices.....anywhere! Fran is very helpful and was a pleasure to work with. I recommend Boulevard Florist and would use them again myself.

I thought this was the coolest thing ever! It is such a good deal. You pay $15 for 3 or $20 for 5 monograms. They have a really good selection with many color options. The monograms are emailed to you in jpeg format to use however you want!

This is such a great idea and adds a special touch to your invitation. They cost more and take about 10 days to receive. So, take that into consideration.
