For our wedding, we worked with Gris Garcia as a day-of coordinator. She made the whole experience flow so smoothly! She was incredibly responsive to all of our questions and needs leading up to the big day and made the actually wedding feel so magical. Any hitches that came up, she and her team were quick to respond and handle it without impacting our own experience of the wedding. We loved working with her and the So Smitten team!

We cannot say enough good things about So Smitten Events. We booked their Bronze package for day-of coordination, and working with Shaunte, Jennifer, and Gris was such a great experience from start to finish. They were clear, organized, and incredibly helpful in the lead-up to the wedding, especially during our meetings, the walk-through, and with planning spreadsheets and thoughtful questions that helped us think through all the important details ahead of time. On the wedding day itself, everything ran smoothly, and we were able to truly relax, enjoy the moment, and be present with our guests because we knew the team had everything handled. They truly went above and beyond for us, and we recommend So Smitten Events as your planning team 10/10!

Planning a wedding is the most stressful thing, and I was so nervous to find the perfect planner to help me and my husband plan our dream wedding, and we found that in Marni. Ever since the first phone call I knew she was the best of the best. She helped handle EVERYTHING, she was truly made all of my dreams come true. She is so professional but also so friendly and funny. Our wedding day went ridiculously smoothly, nothing went missing, people were on time, it was incredible! People now are coming up to me and asking how I was able to pull off the most perfect wedding they have ever been to and I tell them it was my fabulous ideas, and my planner making it happen. I recommend So Smitten to literally anyone planning a wedding. They are truly, truly incredible.

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Marni for our wedding from start to finish, and I could not be happier about how our wedding came out! She is extremely organized, detail orientated, creative, and easy to work with. My husband and I explained our vision to her, and she was able to bring to life exactly what we were picturing! We didn't really know anything about wedding planning, but Marni made it so easy and helped to guide us through it step by step. On the day of the wedding as well, Marni and her team were super professional and ensured everything ran smoothly. It was everything I ever dreamed about and more, and our guests still rave about what a perfect and fun wedding it was! I cannot recommend So Smitten enough!

From the moment my wife, Bridget, and I met Marni and her team at So Smitten, we knew we’d found something special. Marni’s warmth, infectious enthusiasm, and incredible organizational skills blew us away. Out of the 4-5 wedding planners we spoke with, Marni stood out as someone we could trust completely to make our dream wedding a reality—and she delivered beyond our wildest expectations! Marni’s expertise was evident from our first meeting, where her meticulous organization and genuine care shone through. She guided us through every step, helping us narrow down venues to secure our dream location at Palos Verdes Golf Club. Her deep knowledge of the area’s venues, vendors, and details like decor, seating, and catering made the planning process not just seamless but genuinely fun. Marni’s suggestions were always spot-on; we often turned to her for opinions, and she never steered us wrong. Beyond the wedding itself, Marni went above and beyond, helping us plan a perfect rehearsal dinner at The Strand House and an unforgettable after-party in Hermosa. Every detail, from venue visits to food tastings and table dry runs, was a joy because of her. She provided clear milestones, made complex logistics feel effortless, and became a true friend throughout the process. Her passion and personal touch turned planning into a cherished memory. Our wedding day was flawless, filled with moments we’ll treasure forever. Marni and So Smitten brought our vision to life with creativity, professionalism, and heart. If you’re looking for a team to make your dream event come true, we wholeheartedly recommend Marni and So Smitten—they’re simply the best!
