Soraya is extremely attentive to detail and is an expert on wedding planning and coordination (we definitely learned a lot from her throughout!). She is warm, kind and empathetic, which makes her adept at anticipating and addressing needs and concerns throughout the wedding planning process. We really enjoyed working with Soraya, and thank you so much for giving us a magical, stress free and fun wedding experience!
Soraya… where do I even start. An absolute dream to work with, angel and light of a human being, and the very reason my wedding day was stress-free. From the beginning a soundboard and endless source of knowledge, and such a patient, generous, kind, and professional woman. Don’t hesitate to hire her… do it now!
If I could give 6 stars I would. Soraya from day 1 was warm, kind, fun to work with, and passionate about what she does which shows with her work. Soraya was both my day-of planner as well as florist and she completely captured the vibe we wanted. My wedding day was completely stress-free and I was able to enjoy being in the moment because I had so much trust and confidence in Soraya. From a professional standpoint Soraya is unmatched. But on a human level, her energy is what sets her over the top. If you are looking for a kind, fun, organized, creative planner..she is it! Could not imagine the process without her. Eternal thank you’s, Soraya!

Professionalism: 10/10
Let me start this off by saying that Soraya has been an absolute dream to work with and probably the best person to have in your corner during any event. My husband and I were lucky enough to have her as our day-of-coordinator and florist and that decision is probably the best we’ve made through the whole wedding process. I’m not going to lie, I’m one of those brides who didn’t really see the point of weddings and just wanted to get the wedding “over and done with” and was very concerned about going over budget. But I remember after our first phone meeting, I felt like I was brought back to childhood me who’s actually excited about the wedding and wanted my wedding day to feel like a fairy tale. I think it’s all because of her sincerity and positivity - she makes you feel like everything is possible - even on a budget!
Soraya and Lisa truly went above and beyond for me and my husband. Always there when I needed her, was very patient with us with last minute changes, calmed me down when I was overthinking about how things could go wrong, and most of all, she was there to constantly remind me and my husband of what’s truly important - and that’s to have a good time. I don’t know what fires she had to extinguish on the day of the wedding, I’m sure I don’t know any of them because she prioritized us having a good time and took care of it all. She takes care of her clients like family. And that is something that I think is truly rare and hard to find. Thank you so much Soraya for making our wedding one to remember! Our families and friends all appreciated your contagious light and calming presence, and of course, your most beautiful floral creations just as we planned! I wish I had wedding photos to share so that everyone can witness your brilliance! I’ll try to update this review once I get them! Again, thank you for everything and we will never forget you!
If you're planning a wedding, you need Soraya period. Soraya helped bring my vision for my wedding day to life and went above and beyond her call of duty on multiple occasions. She took the time to understand my aesthetic and advocated on my behalf throughout the planning process. She is not only a wealth of knowledge and knows the industry through and through but she is genuinely kind and concerned with a heart to serve her couples. My only regret is not finding her sooner!
She was such a joy to work with. She was so happy for us and offered to help so much during our planning phase. She even went as far as communicating to the venue on our behalf and would even help retrieve some of the decorations that we still needed to purchase. Would highly recommend to use her services as she will put 110% effort into making your big day special!
It's hard to put into words how incredible Soraya was. Her work was absolutely beautiful. The arbor piece she created for our altar was magical, and the bouquets and boutonnieres were perfect. We didn't have very firm wedding colors, more of a general palette, but she nailed it and gave us florals that elevated our design and made the whole wedding feel more cohesive. On top of all that, she is just a wonderful and kind human being. She created a handmade basket for our flower girl for her to keep that made her feel like a princess. As for our ring bearer, she provided a treasure chest for him to carry the rings in, which he also adored and she allowed him to keep as a gift. We're not frequent throwers of big events, but we would truly throw a giant party any time just for the chance to work with her again.
Soraya was so attentive to what we needed not just for flowers but she helped us figure out our color scheme and really encouraged us to get the look we wanted for our wedding. Cannot recommend her enough, she was amazing!!! My guest were in awe of the centerpieces that she created and where happy to take them home. She was very meticulous and my wedding wouldn’t have been as magical without her attention to detail. Everything was perfect!
Soraya was such a joy to work with. She helped us for a whole extra year since our wedding got pushed back due to COVID. She was constantly checking up on us throughout the year(s!) to make sure we were holding up okay and that we were on track for the big day. She was also very attentive in keeping us within our budget, which was one of my top concerns. We got month-of coordination services through her and florals and decor as well, which really helped simplify things for us! On our big day, Soraya and her assistant Lisa were so much fun while still making sure everything was going smoothly and on time; even our bridal party fell in love with them! I highly recommend working with Soraya for your big day.
She is so amazing. I can’t express how awesome it was to see Soraya put what we had in our heads and make it real. My wedding was amazing and everything I wanted it to be. The best part of the event was hearing how everyone had such a good time and the compliments on how beautiful everything was. What more could you want from a wedding. Thank you Soraya!! From the bottom of my heart!
Soraya is so amazing ! Without her our wedding wouldn’t have been the same! She has an amazing eye for detail and really knows what’s in style and how to execute it amazingly ! She did an absolutely spectacular design for our wedding it was so beautiful ! Also she is so attentive and helpful ! She always answered my questions and helped me in any way she could ! You need to book her for your next event!
Soraya coordinated our wedding and it was hands down one of the best decisions we made. Not only is she a talented planner with a great eye for design -– she's also an incredibly genuine, warm, and thoughtful human being. You can just tell that she truly cares about people.
Soraya gave us so much support and guidance as we planned out the details, always going above and beyond to help out. And during the month of our wedding, I seriously don't know how I could have kept my sanity without her. She coordinated seamlessly with all of our vendors, helped us create a great timeline and floor plan, thought of every little detail, and kept everything organized while she did it.
She also has a gift for bringing people together and making them feel comfortable. On my wedding day, I felt like I could actually relax and enjoy myself thanks to her work. (And I'm someone who gets easily stressed out, even on normal days!)
Basically everything was perfect and we're so grateful she was a part of our wedding. I highly recommend working with her, no matter where you are in the process.
I cannot say enough good things about Soraya! My husband and I had to cancel our wedding last minute last year due to the pandemic and Soraya was so supportive and understanding. This year we got have our party and Soraya did an amaaaazing job! Everything was beautiful and better than I could have imagined. She is so sweet and warm and makes you feel like she is 100% behind you supporting you the whole time. You can tell she loves what she does and I feel so blessed to have gotten to work with her. I would recommend Soraya in a heartbeat!
Soraya is such a joy to work with!!! My husband and I got married on July 23, 2021 in Thousand Oaks. Her and her team went above and beyond our expectations. From the very start, we showed her our vision for our wedding and she already knew what style we would like. She was even more excited when we told her we wanted hints of Disney/Mickey and Minnie in our wedding as she is a Disney lover as well! We immediately trusted her insight and her eye for design and details. My bouquet was probably one of the most beautiful bouquet’s I’ve seen. She really took my vision for it and made it into one of her masterpieces.
Soraya is very personable, consistent with her work, attentive, and will offer words of encouragement when you need it the most. Her kind heartedness and sweet spirit uplifted us when we were going through a difficult time in the midst of wedding planning. She always had a positive mindset and got us more excited for our special day. She is such an angelic woman, definitely a wonder woman. She is the jack of all trades and is very knowledgeable in the wedding industry. We are so thankful to have Soraya be a part of our special day. Our wedding was so magical because of her gifted talents. We would HIGHLY recommend Soraya for florals, wedding decor, day-of coordination, or any wedding planning needs. She is truly a blessing and definitely has a passion for florals and for serving her brides and grooms like royalty.
P.S. On the day of our wedding, Soraya personally delivered our appetizers and dinner and we actually got to eat!! She also packed us some of our desserts and we ate them on our way to our honeymoon! She is the best!
Working with Soraya Rondon was amazing. She is an incredible floral designer and brought my vision of a greenery wonderland to life. She is well-priced, has YEARS of experience, and is so kind. She will become your best friend while working with you. She is also very detail oriented and can execute a plan to perfection. For the most beautiful floral design, work with Soraya!!!
Soraya was such a joy to work with. I had planned most of the wedding myself, but felt stressed about the details a few weeks leading into the day.
I wasn’t sure what help I needed with exactly so I reached out to Soraya hoping she can provide some direction. From the first conversation I had with her, I knew I needed her on my side. She took the time to get to know me, my husband, my vision, and then translated it all into a work of art that’s also within our budget. She followed up regularly and offered encouragement and advice in times when I needed it the most. Her process is transparent, timely, and a real joy to go through.
As many others have said, Soraya has a passion and a gift for all things wedding related. Aside from having your dream wedding, you will also gain a friend in Soraya. So if you’re needing any help with Florals, Wedding Decor, or Day-of Coordination, don’t look any further.
Soraya and Lisa were a dream to work with! Our wedding was entirely planned before COVID hit and then suddenly we had to make new plans. Soraya was always there to help me stay calm as I moved through these challenges. Soraya is the sweetest human. She really gives her all to her couples and wants the best for them. She was always there to answer questions. She remained patient and understanding at all times. You could just tell she LOVES what she does. She handled every obstacle with grace and I just knew she had it all handled. She has a lot of experience in the industry and also as a florist has a lot more knowledge there. I would 100% recommend her services to any couple looking for a reasonably priced coordination service with people who care. With Soraya you are not just a business transaction. That feeling was so important me on my wedding day. I didn't want to be just a transaction, and with her, I felt like family!
Soraya is an actual angel on earth. My entire engagement season leading up to my wedding, was exceedingly and abundantly more than I could’ve ever asked for or imagined because of Soraya’s grace-filled heart, and her spirit of complete EXCELLENCE. Just WOW. Blown away by her. Ladies- don’t believe the cheap lie that planning your wedding has to be stress inducing. She jumped through many hoops while planning our wedding like a champ, as we started planning right before covid broke out in the US and weddings everywhere were being cancelled. She led us on safely with so much grace and peace assuring us all would be well. And it was. My husband and I got married on May 16, 2020 and because of her, it was our dream wedding down to every detail. Her heart of faith and mind of excellence is something I’ve never seen or experienced before. She genuinely cares to serve YOUR vision for your special day, and also calls it so much higher. Her experience in this industry is evident, and her raw talent, eye, and attention to detail is something YOU NEED whilst planning your wedding. She is the most trustworthy creative, businesswoman, mother figure, force to be reckoned with. Her taste is out of this world, and her execution is humbling. She spent many hours venue hunting for, and with us, and really truly understands the magnitude and significance of this special day. She goes above and beyond in everything she does, and our wedding looked like, and felt like heaven because of her. You will be extremely blessed if you get the opportunity to have Soraya on your team to help plan your special day. She is an angel through and through and I would give her a billion stars if I could.
There are not enough words to express how thankful I am for Soraya! She went above and beyond for our wedding (not to mention it was a last minute wedding! We had less than two months to plan!) We had an impossible budget and Soraya somehow managed not only to hit it, but produce a beautiful masterpiece of a wedding. Soraya will listen and ask questions about your vision and then amplify that vision with her personal touches (but without straying from what the couple wants). She will check in with you throughout the process. She will make suggestions and walk you through. If you are still hesitating about Soraya, don't! Days after the wedding, my mom is still mentioning how blown away she was with the decor and flowers. What makes Soraya so rare is that she loves her job, and no two weddings are alike to her. Best decision (besides marrying my husband) of this wedding was having Soraya. Thank you Soraya!
Soraya is so personable, and approachable. She has great vision and excellent design. While on the wedding day I was too busy to catch all the lovely details, I adore seeing all that Soraya touched in our photos ❤️
Planning a wedding can be a very stressful time, and vendors can either make or break your experience. Soraya was not only so kind but was so organized, communicative, creative, and really created a space of relief, knowing I could rely on her during my months of planning. That really is absolutely priceless while putting together a pretty important celebration. Weeks after the wedding, guests and even the venue coordinators were raving about her arrangements! She knew exactly what I wanted and continually reassured me that it was all going to be taken care of. My husband and I felt so loved during our experience with her! She is HIGHLY recommended. You will not regret it.
We knew that we wanted to work with Soraya after we saw her amazing work at my sister-in-law's wedding. Since our very first correspondence she has been so open and warm and such a delight to work with.
We unfortunately had to cancel our wedding the night before due to concerns with COVID-19. Soraya was so supportive and understanding and we can't wait to work with her again when we do it again next year!
Soraya is someone you need in your life at all times! She went above and beyond through out our time together. Words cannot describe how grateful we are to have had her with us for our Wedding. She was on top of it all, if we missed something or needed more information she was on it! I wouldn’t wait too long to book her she is a MUST! An absolute Queen. Our wedding couldn’t have been what it was with out her! Thank you again Soraya, we love you!
Soraya was truly a blessing to me and my fiancée throughout the wedding planning process! From the beginning, she was able to dream with me on design, and I knew she only had our best interest in mind. And when it came down to the wire to make the decisions, she guided me through them seamlessly. She was able help me and my now husband bring our dream classy-chic minimalistic wedding design in the heart of DTLA to life at an affordable price! She was very creative yet practical, resourceful, and so much fun to plan with. She also helped us select the best vendors to match our personalities for our florist, DJ, catering, rentals, cake, stationery and everything else! On the day of, I knew I didn’t have to worry and I could focus on the day itself because her and her team took care of everything to the T. Her support on our wedding day was beyond what I could’ve asked for!
Soiree to Remember took such good care of us during our wedding season! Soraya puts 150% into all of her work and makes sure you are well taken care of from top to bottom. She keeps a great team with her as well, so you're in the best hands if you work with her. Whereas some event planners are either personal or professional, you get both when you choose Soiree to Remember. Strongly recommend for both floral work and event design.
Soraya was awesome! She takes the time to get to know her client’s vision for the big day and pays so much attention to beautiful details. I got endless compliments about how beautiful our flowers were. Definitely recommend!
Soraya was such a dream! She managed all the dirt that I couldn’t have dealt with and I felt like I could truly be present on my day without worry! She’s the best
When I started wedding planning I was pretty sure I didn't need or want a wedding coordinator. Our venue heavily encouraged it so I decided to go for a month of planner. One of the best decisions I ever made! I consider myself a super organized person but Soraya was so on top of everything. I appreciated how thoughtful she was about all the details and would bring questions up that I would never have considered. Day of, Soraya and her assistant made sure I enjoyed the day and wasn't running around making sure everything was going according to plan. She was truly a joy to work with and I can't recommend her highly enough! Thank you, Soraya!
My husband and I worked with Soraya as our day/month of wedding coordinator. She was absolutely AMAZING! She truly has an eye for design and really knows the ins and outs of what makes a beautiful and fun event. Her expertise and insight was second to none and made our event as perfect as it could have been. She took the stress out of the month of and day of our wedding, coordinating with all of our vendors so that our day lined up seamlessly. Honestly, my husband and I did not worry about a single thing the day of our wedding, if a problem came up- we did not know about it and were truly able to enjoy our day! Soraya and her assistant know how to work with brides, to make them feel comfortable, beautiful, and always reminding them to have fun and enjoy the day.
Her and her assistant's spirit really helped tie the whole day together. They are experts with professional and kind demeanors that not only made our wedding party go through the day at ease, but also making everything easy for our vendors. Hiring Soraya with a soirée to remember was one of the best decisions we could have made for our big day. I'm even kind of sad to no longer having an event to work with her for! If you have an event or wedding coming up, please do yourself a favor and consider Soraya to help make your special occasion even better than you could have imagined!
Best wedding planner in Southern California!
My fiancée and I were overjoyed when we found out A Soiree to Remember was available to help us plan our wedding because we'd heard that she's high demand and usually booked for events months out in advance!
Being young and naïve, we didn't know the first thing about planning a wedding, and could've easily been taken advantage of in today's world of wedding-scamming. However, Soraya was quick to aid us in recommending the best deals in the San Fernando Valley for rentals, flowers, and food. She had the best connections!
In the course of our short engagement, Soraya exceeded our expectations with her communication, attention to detail, professionalism, and making us feel so confident in her ability to make our dream wedding a reality. The days we would sit down and vision cast and share ideas were some of my favorite- as an artist myself, I love her dedication to the details! She worked with us every step of the way and shared helpful advice and personal experience that made the planning process not only efficient, but fun! There might be a lot of seasoned professionals out there, but finding a gem like Soraya who will make your wedding experience enjoyable is priceless.
The work that she put into communicating with us, our vendors, bridal party and other coordinators was exceptional and gave us such a peace of mind throughout the process. I want to keep all of our e-mail correspondence just to prove to people that excellent planning is possible!
Wedding planning aside, the other wow factor is her passion and knowledge of floral design! She personally set aside time to discuss and help me handpick the florals for our table arrangements, decor and bouquets. My husband and I were so grateful for her background in this area of wedding planning because it saved us from spending a fortune on hiring a florist. This woman is truly the full package!
Thank you so much Soraya and A Soiree to Remember for making our wedding not just ordinary, but a beautiful and seamless celebration of love. It wouldn't have been possible without you!
I feel so lucky to have found A Soiree To Remember and work with Soraya for my wedding day floral! From the first interaction with Soraya, I could tell she was genuinely looking out for my best interest and truly wanted to help me plan for the best wedding decor. I loved how she worked with me to design exactly what I was looking (if not even better than I imagined) for in our floral and at an affordable cost for me. I hired her for the decor, but she went above and beyond and offered to help me with any part of the wedding planning and assured me that she was available to answer questions and guide me as I planned. She is the sweetest, is amazing at her job (our flowers were breathtaking and affordable!), and you can tell she absolutely loves her job! I loved working with A Soiree to Remember and would highly recommend her to all my friends getting married!
