Natalie Sofer Weddings and Events - Los Angeles, California

The best wedding gift you could give to yourself would be hiring Natalie as your wedding planner. Natalie is kind, funny, professional, and an absolute magician when it comes to wedding planning. Before we even hired her, Natalie came to our consultation call knowing only a little about us with ideas already brewing for our perfect day, 18 months away. She took our vision and crafted the wedding of our dreams within our budget. Every single vendor Natalie recommended to us was perfection, every single detail that we thought “do we really care about this” was perfectly executed and curated to our vibe and vision. Our wedding was an absolute dream, and planning it with Natalie was such a joyous and fun and EASY adventure. Her eye for detail and the way she cares so deeply about her clients and their vision will leave you in awe. Every vendor and professional you meet or talk to that knows Natalie gushes about her, and for good reason. If I had to go back and do it over again a million times, I’d hire her every time. No one will care more about not just your wedding day, but about you and your partner. Hire Natalie!!

Thanks to Natalie’s expertise, regular communication, follow- through, organization skills, and the fact that she provided professional and very skilled vendors made my daughter’s wedding day unforgettable. Our guests described it as breathtaking and elegant. We were all able to enjoy this momentous occasion without ever having to worry about a single thing thanks to Natalie and her team of vendors. Natalie cares about her couples and goes above and beyond to bring your vision to life. If you are imagining an exceptional wedding Natalie will deliver an even better one than you are imagining!

Had the pleasure of meeting and working with Natalie at an event where she was named the Best Planner in Los Angeles and I can clearly see why.
Every time I work Natalie, the event is top-notch! It is very smooth, elegant and you can tell it was professionally planned and executed. Seeing what she does always impresses me. Just look at her portfolio to see and you will see what I mean, stunning events! Every detail is thought of and she makes sure every staff and vendor know how important each client and family is. My team and I are thrilled when we get an opportunity to work together as we know it will be a superb event with an expert who truly cares and loves making her clients smile. Seeing her in action with such poise and clear direction of what needs to be done is impressive and inspiring. I don't know how she does it, so many vendors and guests to coordinate, yet she does it time after time.
Overall, Fantastic service, great personality, organized and most important- consistent year after year!
Highly recommend!

No words can describe how deeply grateful we are to Natalie for making our wedding so fantastic. If you have the great fortune of having Natalie as your wedding planner, just know that your wedding is about to blow your and everyone else’s mind. She is unbelievably talented, very detail oriented, and has incredible vision for movie-esque weddings. Even more than that, she has been a great friend, mentor, advocate, cheerleader, and guardian angel throughout our wedding planning. For 10 whole months, she was there for us whenever we needed her— weekdays and weekends, early mornings and late nights. We had no idea which venues to consider, what and which vendors to choose, and even what we needed to do, but Natalie walked us through every little bit of it and connected us with the most incredible vendors ever. Whenever we had an issue with anything, she would immediately address it in the best way possible. As our wedding day approached, a lot of personal things happened and I became increasingly overwhelmed, and I even broke down over the phone. Not only did Natalie comfort me with so much love and care, she stepped up and took care of every single thing. We had family and friends coming from all over the world and she was able to make it as easy as possible for us and them. On the day of the wedding, so much was happening and it was all so overwhelming, but everything was happening exactly the way they should thanks to Natalie. She had every single thing under control, and even when things went wrong, she was there to pick us right back up. Not only is Natalie an amazing wedding planner, she is genuinely a wonderful person who cares deeply about all the people she works with. It’s rare to find someone like that, and we were so lucky that we had her planned one of the most important days of our lives, a day that we and our families will remember forever. She really made our dreams a reality!

A fabulous British wedding and event planner in LA, Natalie Sofer is an absolute gem! Her events are breathtaking and trendsetting. Though she’s involved with the most high profile events and vendors, she’s humble and very easy to talk to. Event planning can be extremely stressful but Natalie makes the process easy and seamless.

Wedding planning is exciting, but also incredibly difficult, especially since most people have no contacts in the wedding industry and there are so many options. Natalie is the best choice you could make to guide you through the process and make sure your wedding day is the day of your dreams. We brought Natalie on board after we’d already started planning our wedding, so it would be expected to have a transition period for her to catch up, but that wasn’t necessary. She was on top of things from the day we hired her, as if she’d been part of the team since day one. She suggested things to us, big and small, that we’d never even thought of that made a huge difference for the ceremony and reception, and her contacts and knowledge of the industry ensured that everything we chose was right for our wedding. We did a lot of things that people might consider unconventional or against “tradition,” but Natalie never pushed back and was even excited about some of the different things we wanted to try. She was also both respectful of our budget and very upfront about where we should spend our money to maximize the look and feel of the wedding. If Natalie says you should get the candles, get the candles! On the day of our wedding, Natalie supervised everything from vendor deliveries to getting everything broken down after the reception and even handled some small issues during the reception that we didn’t even know about until days afterward. She also provided an assistant for my partner to make sure she didn’t need anything while she was getting ready throughout the day. Her team was always there when we needed them and had a fix for every problem, including an unexpected guest who had a table setting ready at the reception within minutes. Natalie is also just a very fun person - it was genuinely a pleasure talking to her and getting to know her on a personal level. It’s important to have someone you can trust planning your wedding, and we were so happy that we put our trust in Natalie. If you’re looking to pull off the wedding of your dreams, not just the one all the magazines say you should be doing, Natalie is the planner for you.

We loved working with Natalie. My wedding was planned in 2.5 months and she helped me with organizing all the vendors, advising me on what to have at the wedding and what was an excess cost, she helped me with the design of the venue since she has worked at the Oviatt Penthouse and she answered all my millions of questions via email.

She really helped on the day of the wedding and I wasn't worried about things going wrong or if I was missing something on the day of the wedding. Natalie let me enjoy my wedding day and for that I will be forever grateful. I 100% recommend working with Natalie for your wedding. I didn't have a headache and was able to sleep the night before my wedding. Thank you Natalie!

My partner and I had the closest thing you can get to a perfect wedding thanks to Natalie! We transitioned wedding planners with only six months remaining, which shows you that she is a miracle worker as she managed to execute the process as if she had been with us from the very beginning (a total of 18 months). First and foremost, Natalie is a wonderful PERSON to work with; she is kind and caring, intelligent and funny, and she has a deep respect for inclusion. You are not just a job to her; Natalie will get to know you outside of just ‘What is on your mood board?’ She will take the time to understand you because she is a very genuine individual, which is also useful for her as a professional when making recommendations to you. Natalie has some of the best vendor connections in the Los Angeles area wedding industry and can work within your budget to create a designer aesthetic worthy of posting alongside the Instagram and Pinterest pages that you likely used as inspiration for your wedding. We were delighted that the vendors we worked with became like another little family for us since we worked together so closely under Natalie’s stewardship and it made the wedding day feel even that much more meaningful; it felt like each of our vendors was invested in us and giving it their absolute best, not just with their physical energy but with their emotional energy. Natalie leads by example, taking charge of your day and executing your vision seamlessly and with confidence. I would not hesitate to recommend her services to anyone planning a wedding, celebration or special event. I was so happy with my wedding, but I am also ecstatic with the lifelong friend that I have made with Natalie - she is just fabulous!
