Weddings we've PLanned
A little known fact about the wedding industry is that we're all friends. The six planners you see below have all fostered the attitude of 'community over competition' for years in our own businesses, supporting each other and even sometimes working side by side at events. We are all confident in both our own differing styles, while still knowing that any one of us would bring a couple's wedding to life with integrity, joy and the professional competence that comes from a combined 35+ years of experience
Welcome to the Los Angeles Small Wedding Collective, a group of wedding planners + professionals working across Southern California! We may have to hit pause on the traditional way of getting married but that doesn't mean you shouldn't still celebrate your marriage. Together as a community, we've come together to provide couples with a stress free, chic and safe way to get married in style. Focusing on community in a time when that is most needed, our mission in starting this was to put our collective experience to work and make our industry stronger.
