Founder
Brooke
Hi, I'm Brooke! My journey in the event world began in 2003 as a student intern in the athletic department at UCLA (go Bruins!). I worked in the marketing department, helping sponsors run game-time promotions, and from the start, I was hooked on the adrenaline of live events. That passion led me to work for the Dodgers after college, where I learned even more about advertising and event production.
Eventually, I realized weddings felt like the perfect next step. After cold calling nearly every wedding planner in Los Angeles, I landed my first job in the industry, and I’ve never looked back. After learning (a ton), I decided to take the leap and start planning weddings on my own. That’s when Orange Blossom was born!
Each of the incredible people listed here have been such a big part of Orange Blossom’s growth, and I’m endlessly grateful.
Our team is full of kind, creative, and ridiculously talented people who truly care about our clients and their celebrations. We’re so glad you’re here, and we can’t wait to learn how we can help bring your event to life.

Christy
Hi, I’m Christy – the lead designer here at Orange Blossom.
I’m a California native who enjoys crafting, whiskey, hiking (preferably with dogs), traveling and binge watching shows. In my 10 years with this company, I have been fortunate enough to explore and grow as an artist – experimenting with woodworking, calligraphy, watercolor illustrations, graphic design, laser cutting, etc.
What I love most about my job is that I’m able to express myself creatively while sharing a couple’s love story. I love drawing inspiration from our clients’ lives – work, hobbies, favorite places, etc. – and collaborating with them to create a meaningful design that is also beautiful.
Ella
I try to find reasons to celebrate everything. Big or small, it's these moments that make life that much more exciting.
Every celebration is special- it is such an honor being able to help someone plan their special day. My favorite part of the process is the challenge of finding just the thing clients are looking for. A completely out of the box request? I'm here for it! And what a joy it is to see all the pieces come together.
When I'm not behind the scenes, you will find me at the occasional event, amusement park, or eating yogurt with my three little ones.

"Brooke, Janna, and the whole OBE team were truly incredible from start to finish."
"We had to plan a wedding in LA in 3 months time…entirely from scratch. New country, new city, new vendors, everything! Brooke said she’d do whatever she could to help make our big day finally become a reality! She never seemed overwhelmed or stressed. She was extraordinarily organized, both in planning and day-of. She thought of every little detail and was one step ahead of us the whole time. Brooke hears your budget and helps you stick to it. This is very rare with a planner. If you tell her your ideas, she is honest about what’s possible and not; she finds vendors that fit within the budget; and, she will do whatever she can to get you the best deal. Brooke is also known for responding to emails within minutes. This is 100 percent TRUE. It’s wild! I don’t know how she does it but not a single email went more than 5 minutes without an answer. Most importantly, Brooke is sincere, kind, warm - and just an overall pleasure to work with. I would hire them again in a heartbeat. I can’t imagine having planned my wedding without them. Brooke brought 5 associates day-of and we worked with Janna quite a bit too - everyone was outstanding. And Christy (who does OBE stationary in-house) is so talented. An exceptional experience all around."

Janna
My name is Janna and I feel incredibly lucky to plan celebrations of love, adventure and once in a lifetime dreams coming true. I am an LA native with experience working on corporate soirees, conventions, awards shows and more! My favorite types of events have always been weddings, so one day I quit my job within the hotel events industry and did what my mom has always told me to do - I followed my dreams! Thus came Orange Blossom and since joining this team I have never looked back.
Regardless of your wedding vision, culture or religious background you can trust to be welcomed into the Orange Blossom family with open arms. What's my favorite part of a wedding? The "Magic moment." It is different for everyone - it could be the First Look, a hug from a grandparent that causes everyone to bring out their tissues, the last dance to the evening. It is the moment our brides and grooms have such clarity on what their day is all about. That will always be why I do what I do.
Lisa
Hi, I’m Lisa! I curate and design all the pretty paper details :)
I’ve always loved graphic design and traditional print methods, so channeling that passion into events was a natural fit. I get to customize details that bring so much joy to life’s happiest celebrations. When I’m not designing, I’m plotting my next adventure, fueling up on coffee or boba, or happily conquering the Disney parks in search of my favorite characters.
