People Also Ask…

Which vendors do I need for private dining in Los Angeles?

Before you begin to assemble your vendor list, you need to know which services your private dining venue will provide. Many restaurants will have an onsite events team to help facilitate your event.

Next steps? We always recommend hiring an event planner. Smaller celebrations like rehearsal dinners, baby showers, milestone birthday parties, and other celebrations with lower guest counts can still benefit from an experienced event planner. Hiring an event planner takes a huge part of the planning process (as well as day-of coordination) off your shoulders. This way, you can actually be present and enjoy your celebration.

While your needs may vary depending on the size of your event, we always recommend enlisting the services of the following vendors for an unforgettable celebration:

To take your event to the next level, we also suggest hiring an entertainment company. While you might not need a 12-piece band, your guests will appreciate engaging acts such as DJs, photo booths, immersive activities, and more. Lastly, consider hiring a videographer to capture the most important moments of your celebration. You’ll be happy to have video footage in addition to a beautiful event album.
