About Us

 
 

our approach

Since 2010, Laurel Events Los Angeles has created elegant, warm, and tasteful events custom designed to each couple’s personal style and history. We flawlessly execute and design a select amount of events each year to give our clients our undivided attention. Drawing from the worlds of interior design, fashion, and inspired entertaining, we ensure no two events are ever alike.

Fine quality is at the core of our approach. Our discerning clients find opulence in the details and value a stylishly curated atmosphere that will leave a lasting impression. Confident in our industry expertise, refined eye for design, and hospitality, our clients enjoy their celebrations to the fullest with their beloved guests. Not only do we create elevated experiences, but also lifelong memories.

We offer three wedding services and can customize our offerings for your needs. Producing top-notch events of any scale, our clients have taken us to destination weddings in Germany, multi-day wedding celebrations in Palm Springs, and unique venues like Levi’s Stadium, the home of the San Francisco 49ers.


You really pulled off the most stunning affair I have ever seen, and I think what other people have ever seen. I love you. This was an incredible experience.
