LEARN ABOUT THE EXPERIENCE →

Dana

Dana started her career in banking where she worked for almost 20 years, but she had dreams of becoming an event coordinator even before there was such a thing.

Dana left the banking world looking for a way to use her creative side, give great service, and use the management and organization skills she had gained over the last 20 years. Dana took certification courses in the now “real” field of event management and wedding management. She also took classes to become an ordained minister, just in case the need ever comes up. Being a bank manager taught her people skills, how to think and solve problem on her feet while staying calm and how to manager people.

Dominique

Dominique has a degree in Fashion Design and Merchandising and after working for Nordstrom in their visuals, left to join the trio where she is able to utilize her design and visuals experience in a less “cookie-cutter” way. Dominique loves color and texture. She has worked on very large visual projects and has brought all of that experience with her.

Dominique has an eye for detail and can spot a tag someone left on the bottom of a piece of glass from yards away. Dominique also teaches yoga and brings that “zen” with her to events. She creates custom designs for invitations, menus and all things event related.

Joann

Joann also started her career in banking, and this is where she and Dana met. Joann loves interior design and decorating. She loved to be able to express her creativity through these areas in her spare time. Joann left banking when, as she puts it, “banking left the customer”. Joann loves working with customers and being able to give them great service.

Banking had taught her management skills, people skills and also the ability to think on her feet, solve problems and to think outside the box.

organizer and visionary

She is the one you will most likely get emails and updates from. She is the paperwork girl. “Leaving the banking world and starting this company has brought me so much joy and allowed me to utilize all my skills to their potential”

details and design are her things

Dominique will be your color, texture and design girl. Details are her thing. “While I learned a great deal at Nordstrom, leaving and starting this business has allowed me to really design visuals outside the box to help our clients create something beautiful and exciting”

shopper and designer

If you need something, rest assured she will be able to find it for you. She has a keen eye and loves to make sure all the details are perfect. “Starting this business allowed me to focus on the client and give them great service. I love helping clients make their vision come to life”

Testimonials

Professional and stress-free wedding coordinator!

Dana and her company were wonderful throughout our entire wedding planning process! They came to us for meetings, which helped so much with our busy schedule, and any question I had Dana would reply very quickly with an answer. On the day of the wedding, I did not have to worry about anything and they took care of everything for us. I would highly recommend Party and Be Married to ANYONE who is looking for an affordable, but very professional and stress-free wedding coordinator! Thank you so much Dana and all for such a wonderful job and making the best day of our life a stress-free day!

Renee

Party and be Married is simply amazing!

They were all so helpful and supportive throughout the whole process of wedding planning up through the day of. They were fun to work with, flexible and they really came through for us on our wedding day. While Dom was coordinating our crew at the church for the ceremony, Dana and Jojo were at the reception location setting up. They completely transformed our outdoor picnic bench barn venue into a magical romantic dream come true. Not only was our venue beautiful but the whole day went seamless.

Andrea

How else do you say fantastic?

If Event Planning had a super hero it would be Dana. We hired her and her team for day of wedding coordinator and we got so much more. They were all so professional and helpful, beyond belief. Absolutely amazing. They helped us with everything from negotiations to choosing linens all the way to "did you forget your sunglasses" and everything in between. We definitely would not have had our wedding turn out as spectacular as it did without them. It really did not feel like a business transaction as much as it felt like I had a sister on my side who really knew what she was doing.

The Carrillo's thank you for everything!

Sandra

Worth every penny!

We had TWO weddings. Elderly family could not travel to L.A. for the BIG wedding; so we held a second tiny wedding/reception our of state. Dana & Joann ("Party & Be Married") helped us plan & execute the first but there was no one for the second and WOW did we learn so much by seeing the difference. -- GET THE PLANNING & COORDINATION HELP!! Worth every penny!

James

Dana was able to seamlessly coordinate the many moving pieces

Hiring Dana and Joanne was one of the best decisions we made. We knew from the start we needed to hire a coordinator. Our wedding was at a community center, and several of our key vendors had not done a wedding before. Our caterer had never done a large scale event before. Dana was able to seamlessly coordinate the many moving pieces together. If there were any problems on the day of, I was unaware of them. She took care of everything the month before the wedding. Instead of being a ball of stress trying to coordinate everything, my husband and I went into the wedding relaxed.

Leticia

These wonderful ladies know their stuff

We absolutely love these ladies and could not have had the peace of mind we did on our wedding day had we not hired them. These wonderful ladies know their stuff and are prepared for every situation and do not let one detail go undone. The moment we met them, we were instantly comfortable with them and felt like they got our concerns and could help us pull together all the detail that we had planned on our own.
