Loved working with Monique at A Signature Wedding on all the details throughout the wedding planning process. She was always professional, responsive, dependable and attentive to all our needs regarding the wedding day. She and her staff executed a magical day that will forever be in our hearts - A Signature Wedding is well worth every dime - wish I could do it again ❣️❣️❣️

I would highly recommend A Signature Wedding.Monique is absolutely the best wedding coordinator you could ask for. Both my brother and sister had used A Signature Wedding for their special days over 15 years ago. When I started planning my wedding I immediately thought about Monique. I remembered from their weddings how prepared and organized she was. Both my sister and sister-in-law highly recommended her as well.
We hired A Signature Wedding for our Day of Coordinator for our wedding at the Ocean Institute in Dana Point, CA. She was way more than our Day of Coordinator. Monique met with me over

A Signature Wedding did an amazing job navigating us through the challenges of planning a wedding during a pandemic. I have no doubt that I would say the same for planning a celebration during "normal" times. Monique went above and beyond to make sure the day came together as we all hoped that it would. I give her and her team the highest recommendation.

Monique did an amazing job coordinating our special day. My Husband and I are an older couple, in our 60's and totally unaware of how things are done today. Monique made the day stress free for us. She handled everything so professionally and with a calmness that helped me. There was one snafu that she handled and I didn't even know about it until she had a resolution. I would definitely recommend her. She recommended things that never entered my mind, like having a list for the photographer as to what photos I wanted. She worked with the venue as well as my vendors and produced a seamless transition

I inquired about a wedding planning package here. I live out of state, but my fiance wanted a beach wedding in Huntington Beach. In my inquiry, I mentioned that we did not know what we needed to do and needed help (hence why I’m looking for a planner), and also mentioned we had a decent budget.
To this I got a reply, telling me that could not help me and referred me to a budget planner (nothing wrong with them, they just dont offer reception planning or detailed ceremonies).
My budget is $30,000 for a 30 guest wedding. I’m appalled at how I’ve been treated and I will not recommending this

Monique helps you take your event to the next level. All the little details that bring your theme to life, and especially what you’d never think of. The sophistication of her eye makes any host feel like a million bucks. She keeps your personal brand in mind, while keeping you on trend and thinking through a flow or timeline that fits your guests. Her extensive network gives you options for any celebration!! Bottom line, my husbands surprise 40th was perfect (and mindful of covid restrictions). Don't go anywhere else.

Initially I was skeptical about having a wedding planner as I wasn't sure of the benefits. Now we can't imagine having not had a planner, especially being Monique.
Monique was quite simply put, the best person we could have had to help us organise our wedding. She went the extra mile constantly and was essential when planning a wedding whilst we were overseas in Australia.
Her pricing was much lower than other planners we looked at and in truth, she was worth so much more to us.
If you are planning a wedding or rehearsal dinner in Los Angeles, I would suggest going to Monique.

It is hard to put into words the amount of love and gratitude we feel for Monique and her team! We first met when she was my sisters coordinator for her wedding and baby shower, every guest at that wedding was blown away by how much fun, seamless, and beautiful every moment/every detail was during their special day. Multiple people ended up hiring her for their weddings, and I knew that I would be honored and so grateful to have her as my planner one day as well.
After my husband and I got engaged, she was one of the first people we called to start the planning process. She put our minds at ease

Monique Atwell (A Signature Wedding) is the best thing that ever happened in my life!! I met Monique nine years ago when she was the wedding coordinator for my twin sister’s epic wedding on Catalina island. I remember being blown away at how organized and on top of everything she was. Nine years later, Monique surpassed my greatest expectations when she coordinated my dream wedding at the Dolphin Bay Resort and Spa in Pismo Beach. We also have a very unique love story. My fiance’ and I were high school sweet-hearts and each other’s first loves. We lost touch for 17 years until we reconnected

My husband, family, and I all agree that working with Monique to plan our wedding was the best decision we made throughout this whole process! I don't know what we would have done without her! Monique is extremely organized, meticulous, creative, and the consummate professional. I was so stressed at the beginning of wedding planning - I felt overwhelmed by the sheer task of it and did not have a clear vision of how I wanted our wedding to look like. Monique's calm demeanor and attention to detail helped us stay on track and create the wedding of our dreams! No question or problem was too big for
