Center of Attention Events - Burbank, California

One of my favorite memories from our wedding day and all of the planning up to the big day was our interactions with Michele.

From the moment we met her, we felt this genuine connection, and could not stop smiling after our introduction. I figured, we picked a venue, have our wedding outfits and a guest list, that is all we need, right? Well, if we didn't have Michele and her amazing team, I would have been a deer in headlights!

Every conversation with her, you learn a little bit more about yourself. Her attention to details, understanding who you are individually and as a couple shines in her work. I don't have much of a creative eye, I didn't know what florals to choose or colors, all I had was a vision, inspired by my childhood. Michele brought it to life.

Over the years, I have heard my friends say "Make sure you enjoy your big day" or "I wish I had time to enjoy the big day, I was so stressed out". Michele, because of you, we were able to enjoy every moment of our week long celebration. Thank you for all of the emotional support, the comforting eye contact and reminding me to take deep breaths. You kept us on schedule and made sure we had moments to ourselves to take it all in!

Michele truly enjoys what she does and it shows. As I look back at our wedding photographs, I love seeing all the little details, representing us. She plays with creativity and makes dreams come true!

Big moments in life truly take a village, and thank you for being part of ours. Thank you for always keeping in touch even after the wedding, and being part of our lives.

Our wedding was the best day! Michele and her team did an exceptional job at pulling everything together from planning to execution - especially because we didn’t know what we wanted for our wedding and it was the evening of the biggest windstorm in Malibu in 40 years. I would hire them again in a heartbeat. Love you all!

Michelle is absolutely the best and knows everything about all things events...down to every last detail. She really wants to see her clients happy and has so much experience, knowledge, and so many connections. You will have an amazing, memorable event if you hire her and her team.

Michele is THE BEST! She came to me through a trusted friend who raved about Michele and her company. My friend was right about Michele (and her team), she is a joy to work with and she clearly cares about her client's vision and event experience. Our private event has been handled with the extreme confidentiality required, and with a consummate, caring professionalism every step of the way. In terms of planning, Michele gave us many wonderful creative recommendations/options, and then patiently helped us work through all the detailed decisions. Michele and her team have literally gone the extra mile to make our vision a reality and I/we are so grateful! I feel like when you work with Michele, you are working with a best friend. Here's to collaborating on many more events!

Michelle is a miracle worker!!! She saved our wedding. I don’t think I have any words that could express how grateful I am for her. She was nothing but warm, welcoming and just so incredibly helpful and nice throughout our whole wedding planning process. Not once did she seem annoyed or bothered by any of our request and if we didn’t like anything, and we kept rejecting she would never take it personally. And then the week of our wedding when disaster hit the fan, she was able to fix it. Did a much better job than what the original was going to be. If it wasn’t for her, our wedding would not have been as nearly as memorable as she was able to make it. I am forever grateful for her, and I promise you you cannot go wrong if you go with Michelle. And you can always reach out to me if you have any questions or need a testimony.

Where should I start? There is so much happening that I can write a book.
Michele is someone that under stress will calm you down. She is fully experienced to take on your wedding 200 percent. The reason I say 200 is that we had a huge issue out of nowhere that could have been impossible to overcome.
Last minute our venue canceled on us 3 days before our event. That’s right, 3 days before our welcome dinner and main reception, the venue canceled on us. The Malibu Dream Resort due to not able to park at the venue

Michele was like our insurance policy. The pressure and stress were something we have never felt before. The entire family was crying and under enormous pressure. This should have been my son’s happiest day but Malibu Dream Resort managment asked us to sign a new contract with new terms which we refused .
If it wasn't for Michele, we would not have ever been able to continue our events.
She came through 200 percent for us . . Anyone else would have dropped us and said this was not what I signed up for but she found us a 2 new venue, transferred all our vendors there in 48 hours, and did an absolutely amazing party. None of our guests could feel anything ever happened. It was like magic and everything came through last minute. We did our welcome dinner at one venue and reception at the another . Michele worked day and night to make this happen. She walked along side us to ensure we stayed positive and hopeful . I know she was under a lot of pressure because she had to rearrange all deliveries, set up, seating, etc. Work with venues that we had not had any prior meetings with on how we wanted things . But she did it 👍👍👍🙌🙌🙌

Thank you Michele for your unconditional support and pulling the magic wand . You were able to find us 2 venues in such short notice and had both events turn out so beautifully. We will never forget everything you did for us . It is left impression of life time to remember. Wishing you a very best and happy week and hope you got some rest .

I had the pleasure of working with Michele and her team to plan and execute my Wedding in 10 months. From beginning to end, the entire experience was great. Michele picked up her phone every time I called and immediately responded back to all emails. She showed great industry insight, was able to connect me with vendors to find good pricing on services, and on the day of the wedding she made it so I didn't have to think about a thing. We would work with Center of Attention Events again in a heartbeat!

Nobody does events like Michelle. Having partnered with her through my different restaurants, I can tell you Michele throws a party like no other. From small events to huge parties, she will make your event memorable. I still recall some of the events we worked on together. A true industry leader Michelle is a memory maker.
