The votes are in for California Wedding Day's annual awards program, Best of 2018, honoring the most innovative and creative talent in the wedding industry from Los Angeles, Orange County, Ventura/Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo County. The finalists were chosen by their peers through an open voting process held online at californiaweddingday.com. Plan your day with this incredible list of talented vendors who will make your wedding dreams come true: California Wedding Day's Best of 2018.

Winners were announced at wedding industry’s event of the year at Vibiana on May 15 and are published in the Summer 2018 issue of California Wedding Day. The gala whisked guests on a road trip through the bounty of the Golden State, from Napa Valley to Palm Springs. Under the helm of our audacious leader, Lisa Khan of Lisa Khan Events and Jason Rhee of Rheefined Company, with incredible support from Rayce Pr and beautiful branding by Jasmin Michelle Designs, we joined forces with a talented team of vendors to create a quintessential Californian experience … all the way from the 405 to 101 to Mulholland Drive and all the way down the PCH.
