Celebrations by Brandi

Lead Planner

I’m Brandi Bondurant, & I founded Celebrations by Brandi in 2021. Our team of five dedicated planners is passionate about guiding you through every step of your wedding journey, culminating in a day that’s as beautiful as it is memorable. When potential clients ask, “What sets you apart from other planners?” it’s a question I love to answer. For us, it’s simple: we are deeply service-oriented. Our greatest strength is being the calm in the storm—providing a steady presence that brings peace of mind throughout the planning process and on the big day itself. We’re here to support you, offering expert guidance so that you can enjoy the process.

Our ultimate goal is for you to be a guest at your own wedding, fully confident in what’s happening behind the scenes and able to focus on your fiance and your loved ones. Yes, we’re detail-oriented, craft thoughtful timelines, collaborate with incredible vendors, and will bring your vision to life with creativity and precision. But more than that, we truly care about you and your experience. Whether we’re designing your invitations or your timeline, every detail is crafted with the intention of serving you, so your day is as seamless and stress-free as possible. Our mission is for you to feel supported and celebrated every step of the way.

Service available for an extra cost

	Full-service planning	Day-of coordination / wedding management
Description	Full service planning begins at the very beginning and goes through to your planner being the last person to leave the venue after your wedding. We begin before you have your venue and guide you through every aspect of planning your wedding. We do all the work and provide you with options and you simply tell us yes or no.	Month-of-coordination is ideal for couples who have the wedding planned, but need help in the final 6 weeks managing the logistics & details, as well as the day. At this point the vendors are all beginning to contact you & final decisions are being made, but it is time for you to take off your planner hat & just enjoy this last phase of engagement & your day. In the 6 weeks we become an expert on your wedding & take the load off of you.

We cannot thank Brandi and Yusara enough for making our wedding day absolutely perfect! From the very beginning, they were organized, attentive, and so easy to work with. They anticipated our needs before we even realized them and made the entire planning process feel stress-free and enjoyable. On the wedding day, every detail was executed flawlessly, from the ceremony to the reception. They handled any last-minute changes with grace, and ensured that all we had to do was enjoy the day. Yusara was our Lead Coordinator, she is absolutely amazing!! Couldn’t recommend enough!

I don’t usually write reviews, but after working with Brandi, I felt it was important to share just how amazing she is. My wife and I would 1000% recommend Brandi to anyone looking to get married in the greater Orange County area! We came into the wedding planning process with just a rough idea of the theme we wanted, and Brandi helped us bring it to life in ways we couldn’t have imagined. From the very first meeting, it was clear that Brandi’s extensive experience in the wedding industry and her deep knowledge of the OC area would make her an invaluable partner. She worked tirelessly to help us make decisions, offering suggestions when we needed them, and helping us stick to our vision every step of the way. Her established relationships with local vendors were another huge asset. She connected us with fantastic photographers, florists, and even a DJ who perfectly matched our style and budget. It really felt like we had a team of experts working in our favor, thanks to her recommendations. Beyond her impressive organizational skills and vendor network, Brandi’s professionalism and passion for weddings really stood out. It wasn’t just about getting everything done — she truly cared about making our day unforgettable. Her attention to detail was impeccable, and she always went above and beyond to make sure we felt supported. She anticipated every need and handled all the little things that came up with such grace, leaving us free to fully enjoy our big day. From start to finish, Brandi made the planning process so much easier and, most importantly, stress-free. Thanks to her, our wedding day went off without a hitch. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better planner. If you want a planner who’s not just professional but also passionate, caring, and completely dedicated to making your day perfect, Brandi is the one to choose.

Make Brandi your first wedding planning decision!! We found Brandi early in our planning when we were struggling to find a venue that fit our vision and price point. Brandi took the time to truly understand exactly what we envisioned, she fully vetted and presented options to us with a thorough understanding of what we wanted. She ultimately negotiated the venue we wanted in a creative way that we could have NEVER done ourselves. We initially hired her just to find our venue but her dedication and delivery of exactly what we needed led us to continue into a coordination contract as well. Her vendor referrals (best photographer and content creator we could not have found ourselves), ideas and guidance led us to decisions that we could have never made on our own. She kept everything on track, down to every detail of our wedding day timeline. Her team on our wedding day was so attentive, helpful and made us feel like we could truly enjoy the day, which we did! The best choice we made was hiring Brandi and her team. If you want personalized, 1:1, thoughtful and detail-oriented support in your planning and coordination, you will get all of this and more with Brandi!

We truly can’t say enough good things about Brandi! From the moment we met and spoke to her, we knew we were in the best hands. We had a very short engagement—just 4 months—and Brandi didn’t just rise to the challenge, she absolutely exceeded every expectation we had. We came to her with a vision for an intimate backyard wedding, and she made it a stunning reality. Every detail was executed flawlessly, and nothing slipped through the cracks. Brandi and her team brought such calm, professionalism, and creativity to the planning process that it actually made wedding planning fun—even on a tight timeline. She listened to our ideas, added thoughtful suggestions, and somehow managed to elevate everything we dreamed of while still keeping it true to us. The entire day felt effortless and magical because of her hard work behind the scenes. Our guests are still raving about how beautiful and well-organized everything was! If you’re considering hiring Brandi—do it. She’s organized, talented, kind, and truly has a gift for bringing wedding dreams to life.
