Alexandra Khoury Modon’s path to founding à la Modon Events is anything but conventional—woven through years of discipline, artistic expression, and an insatiable drive to bring visions to life. From visual and theatrical artist to Division I tennis player, courtroom prosecutor, and now event planner, she has mastered high-pressure environments, honed meticulous attention to detail, and refined the art of storytelling. Today, she channels that same precision and creativity into designing seamless, deeply personal events that reflect each client’s unique story.

Planning a destination wedding in Cairo, Egypt came with its fair share of complexities. We had guests traveling from all over the world and were trying to blend three cultures - Lebanese, Egyptian, and American. In Egypt, most wedding planners focus only on décor and receptions, so I found myself struggling with the schedule and flow of logistics beyond that. There were so many moving parts - the ceremony, the bridal party, the reception - and I didn’t have a planner or a day-of coordinator to help me execute the day smoothly. Alex stepped in and became my anchor. She gathered every detail and built an hour-by-hour plan that carried us through the day, from getting ready to the end of the night. That included the procession of the church ceremony, the musical cues, the reception entrance order, the dj song list order, etc. She helped me create breakout schedules to give to each vendor so they all knew what part of the day mattered for them to take part in. Alex brought so much understanding and cultural awareness to our wedding. She respected the way that weddings are done in Egypt, Lebanon, and America, and helped me blend certain moments from each tradition into our wedding. Every special moment flowed. I truly couldn’t imagine how the day would have went without her. She gave me peace of mind, comfort, and support that made me feel extremely take care of on the most important day of my life.

Emerald Events LA

Hello! My name is Rachel Anderson, the creator behind Emerald Events LA. I'm an experienced event planner with certifcations from internationally recognized QC Event School. With over 10 years of experience in the hospitality & wedding industry, I am confident I can create any vision you have for your next event.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I had a completely different vision and our date was originally scheduled for May 2026 in Orange County but due to unfortunate circumstances we decided to pull in our date to Monday, November 3, 2025 to Santa Barbara. We made our change of plans late August and I found Rachel (Emerald Events LA) through Zola. After our phone consultation and explaining our situation to her, we decided to move forward with her because of her excellent communication and willingness to tackle our day with 2 months to plan. We had our ceremony at the Santa Barbara Courthouse in the Mural Room and our reception was at Arnoldi's Cafe. From the start, expectations were laid flat and communication was consistent and clear. Anytime I had a question, needed feedback / sounding board, or someone to vent to, Rachel was my wedding bestie. She made herself available, is an excellent buffer and facilitator, and she was highly professional and personable. Emerald Events LA went above and beyond - not only did she make this accelerated planning feel enjoyable, she also provided excellent wedding cake / dessert and florist recommendations. We appreciate her attention to detail and her ability to adapt to the hiccups of the day. She has an emergency bag filled with treasure troves to ensure we had what we needed for getting ready, securing items, whatever else we needed for the day, etc. Rachel developed a timeline that worked well for our vendors, facilitated and worked out the kinks in our rehearsal for an excellent ceremony execution. She ensured our reception (restaurant space) was set up and managed the vendors who joined us for dinner. We are extremely grateful for Emerald Events LA / Rachel and we couldn't be happier!

Officiant Julia Garcia

  • Offers 2 services

  • Serves San Buenaventura (Ventura), CA

• I love to customize the look and feel of wedding ceremonies to meet the aspirations and imagination of my couples. • Perform personalized, romantic, memorable wedding ceremonies - elopements, weddings, and vows renewal in LA, Ventura, Santa Barbara counties. • Christian 💒, non-religious, non-denominational, LGBTQ+🌈. • I provide marriage license guidance 📜, write wedding scripts ✍️, and help with vows ❤️.

I need space for more than 5 stars! Oh Julia, from the bottom of our hearts we can not thank you enough for giving us the most perfect and memorable ceremony. The ceremony portion of the wedding day was very important to me so we did a lot of research on a professional that would make the ceremony so special and marry us. From the beginning of our meeting, Julia was professional, on time, kind and very thorough in explaining everything. We had the opportunity to customize our ceremony to the T. Of course we used Julia's base for the ceremony but we also added a lasso component to it and had it be bilingual. My husband really liked adding in "Hasta que la muerte nos separe." and I really liked adding in a moment of prayer after the lasso ceremony. JULIA never told us no. She was always positive, provided insight and provided many options. EVEN the option to choose her outfit to go with our wedding colors and theme. After the wedding ceremony... I received so many comments from different friends and my bridal party on Julia " where did you find your officiant?" "She looked so stunning" " Your officiant was very graceful and treated us nicely when looking for the rings and vow books" " I was surprised she spoke Spanish so well" Having Julia as our officiant made everything 10x better. Her voice is soothing and she takes the right amount of pauses in the speeches and really allows you to soak in the moment. Her voice is crisp, calm and she kept things interesting. WE ARE SOOO HAPPY JULIA MARRIED US! I only have positive things to say and bear in mind, I myself am on year 7 as a wedding vendor in the wedding industry... I can confidently say that Julia is ELITE. Sincerely, Natalie & Pedro

We’re Wedding & Event Planners who have endless passion for our profession! We are creative, energetic, motivated, and super organized. Through the years we have worked hard to impress our clients with efficient planning, fantastic work ethics and of course producing an amazing event! Connecting with our clients and fully supporting their vision is our daily goal. We have a great ability to see the big picture on an event, while keeping focused on the details that are so important to both vendors and clients.

Courtney was the first wedding vendor I contacted after getting engaged. As a wedding professional, I already knew the value in having a wedding planner, but as a bride I truly understand it. Courtney was there with us from day one of planning. She made the appointments for florals, venues, rentals, and provided suggestions for other categories. She got all the information and quotes for us, making it much easier on our end. She checks in to make sure our tasks are being done and offers any support if needed. Our ceremony was mostly candle-lit. Absolutely romantic, but also aboslutely time consuming to light. Courtney practiced at the rehersal so she knew how long it would take to set up, and then break down to transfer the candles to our reception. Also, pro-tip that I learned, light your candles ahead of time so they'll be easier to light! Day-of, she made sure everyone was where they were supposed to be. My family and in-laws still talk about how much Courtney and her team made the day flow perfectly. I can't thank Courtney enough for helping us execute the best day ever!

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.

Mindy and Teri are hands down the very best wedding planners ever. I hired them as "day of coordinators" but they helped me the whole year I was planning the big day. They helped me find vendors for Calamigos Ranch (Oak Room) and told me things I that I did not even know I had to do. They went above and beyond what I expected, even helping me get dressed since I had no bridesmaids and making sure I ate food. I already recommended them to two other friends who got engaged this year.

Haylie and her team are absolutely incredible to work with. I very quickly got overwhelmed with wedding planning and needed some extra help. Haylie was patient with me as we had several consult calls before we officially booked. She immediately felt like a friend and someone I could trust. I am a type A person and felt nervous to not have total control over the wedding planning process or day. Haylie followed up on every detail, question, and thought. She never let any email or message go unanswered and was attentive to every detail. I felt very secure with her.

I’m not even sure where to begin to describe how amazing Events by McKenna is at what they do!! McKenna is the most kind, helpful, and enthusiastic person to assist you during such an important time in your life. She made sure everything went perfectly on our wedding day and every day leading up to it! When we first started our wedding planning journey, we only knew where we wanted to have it, and due to the venue location not regularly being used for weddings, we needed to outsource vendors for everything. That's where McKenna came in and helped us out by hand-picking every vendor that she knew would provide the exact things we were looking for. From catering, florals, furniture rentals, DJ, and all the little details, she knew who would be perfect for the job and she was right about every single one! Every time we had a question or a crazy idea, she had an answer right away and she would do everything she could to make it happen. One thing that we were really hoping for was getting a disco ball above our dance floor, but since we were outdoors, it wasn’t looking promising. McKenna was the one who made sure that we got our disco ball, and it was absolutely perfect! That’s just one example of the many ways McKenna ensured our dream wedding would become a reality. On the day of, McKenna and her team were so efficient and handled everything so that my husband and I could relax and focus on ourselves. We got to our venue and everything was already done and ready to start the day! McKenna was amazing at time management throughout the day, and she was so helpful to not only us, but our families, wedding party and guests as well. Everything went perfectly on schedule and all the crazy ideas that we had came to life with no issues! It was truly the best day of our lives and it wouldn’t have been possible without McKenna’s help! I could write so much more on how incredible Events by McKenna is, but to sum it all up, they are the best choice for your wedding planning and coordinating needs and you will not regret choosing them for your big day!!

She was my calm to my storm, my ying to my yang, my Robin to my Batman…etc Ingrid is not only an amazing wedding coordinator, but she is also an amazing wedding officiant. She took our love story and crazy ceremony ideas (such as taking a shot with us along with our guests before we sealed the deal or taping our ring box underneath one of the chairs for a surprise ring bearer) and created the ceremony of our dreams. To hear from multiple guests that it was the best ceremony they attended was the best compliment we could receive because the ceremony is the most important part of a wedding. It was my favorite part of my wedding. Then she can amazingly switch gears from officiant to wedding coordinator and rock that too. She can do it all (literally). I always have other couples tell us that their wedding day goes by very fast and they didn’t really get to enjoy all the little things. However, my husband and I felt like our special day did not go by so fast and we most definitely got to enjoy the little things mainly because Ingrid took care of everything behind the scenes that no one sees. She created an amazing timeline for us, took charge of our vendors, made sure we were right on schedule with everything, was super communicative along the way… the list goes on and on. She is everything you would want in a wedding coordinator. I am very sad I won’t get to work with her anymore unless I get married again lol, but I would recommend her to anyone I know and hopefully get to see her in action again.

Love & Laughter Weddings was hands down one of the best decisions we made during our wedding planning journey. From the very beginning the entire team was warm, responsive, and so easy to work with. We used their partial planning, officiant, live music, and design services and honestly, it felt like a one stop shop that took SO much stress off our plate. The communication throughout the entire process was excellent, I always felt heard and supported, and everyone we interacted with was incredibly kind and professional. Our ceremony was heartfelt and personal to the point our guests thought Evelyn was our close friend (she is now!), the live music added the perfect vibe to ceremony and cocktail hour, and the design elements completely brought our vision to life. We had such a wonderful experience and will absolutely be recommending Love & Laughter Weddings to all of our friends and family. Thank you for making our day so special!

Where do we even start with Tavi -- she is perfect in every way!! She's that balanced blend that we all want in a planner of detailed, fun, and gets the job done. She was there for us every step of the way, but her magic really shined through when our venue had to change 2 days before the wedding. She immediately sprung into action, secured us an incredible new venue, and made sure all vendors were onboard with the new game plan, all without us having to lift a finger. We don't know what we would have done without Tavi and will certainly be recommending her to every single friend ever, until the end of time. On top of that final hour hero swoop, she made the whole wedding look GORGEOUS. There was not a single detail she missed. She took a random box of decorations we provided, and made a magical garden of eden out of it. We got so many compliments after about how seamless the wedding was, and so many said that if we hadn't told them about the venue change, they would have been none the wiser. That's the kind of magic Tavi can pull off. There's no one better.

Lily went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was what we wanted and more. She was very attentive to our wants from the beginning and her expertise shined through her ability to hash out finer details that ensured the day would run smoothly. Our reception was seamless due to her coordinated preparation and planning. We were able to fully enjoy ourselves, our guests and our vendors without feeling worried. Lily and her assistant, Wen, gracefully blended into the background throughout the night. We can't imagine going through the wedding planning process with anyone else because we truly felt like Lily was more than just our wedding coordinator - she was our mentor, cheerleader, and biggest advocate. We can't thank her enough for the support she gave us during our wedding process because she made it so much fun and that's such an important part of the process. Anyone would be so lucky to have Lily as their wedding coordinator, she will take the best care of you like it was her own special day.
