Leilani Weddings

Hi, I’m Danielle Leilani. My love of organization + multitasking began when I was 6 years old + I would read 5 books at a time while painting my nails + coming up some grand scheme in my head. Wedding Planning is something that I not only love, but I know I was meant to do. After being the first person in my family to receive a college degree – Mine is in Journalism + Anthropology from California State University, Fullerton, I landed a job as a Fashion + Events writer with the Orange County Register, + even had my own fashion column. From there, I worked as a cheerleading coach for middle + high school girls + competed in scholarship pageants which allowed me to delve into philanthropy work. I then fell into a Junior PR Associate Position at a boutique Fashion PR in Downtown LA. Each of these positions in their own ways led me to realize my true passion – events. I’ve been planning weddings + events for five years + I’ve never looked back. I approach each new wedding like a brand new adventure that neither I or the client have been on. This makes for a fun, intimate, + one-of-a-kind experience. A wedding should be uniquely yours, + that is why I strive to live up to my motto. Leilani Weddings was born out of a burning desire to start a company that creates beautiful weddings for brides + grooms. Leilani means “heavenly flower” in the Hawaiian language, + was also the name of my beautiful mother who I lost in 2014 to heart disease. Her spirit is in everything that I do, + is a part of what drives me. A wedding should be you. A wedding should be special. A wedding should be Uniquely Designed + Styled. Leilani Weddings is a wedding + event design, planning + lifestyle brand serving California, New York, Hawaii, Mexico, Costa Rica + anywhere where the "stylish bride celebrating universal love" is planning a wedding to remember! XO, Danielle Leilani CEO + Creative Director
