Coastal California Wedding Planning & Design

Experiential Events Rooted in Hospitality

Welcome to Lia Adams Events

Informed by a 20+ year background in food and beverage, off-site catering, and luxury events, my approach to wedding planning and design is inextricably linked to hospitality. A world that revolves around experience. Where stars are awarded based on how intentionally a thing is done. How personally a need is met. How completely a desire is fulfilled. 

We know five-stars when we feel it.

And when that level of distinction extends to every category—the food, the decor, the entertainment, the details—an easy, effortless sense of enjoyment is unlocked. That brand of fully-present happiness needed to create the best and brightest memories.

Through Lia Adams Events, that’s the gift I’ve delivered to over 100 couples and counting. And I’d love to do the same for you and yours.

Every Detail Planned. Every Need Anticipated. Your Vision Fulfilled.

Lisa, Bride

“On the day of, she made sure everything flowed smoothly and that we weren’t worried about any logistical details. A surprising amount of guests came up to us at the end of the night telling us this was one of the best weddings they’d ever been to and we know Lia played a big part in making that a reality.”

She is always ten steps ahead of you

Luke

“Every time we got off the phone with Lia we felt relief and confidence that she had our wedding well in hand.”

Professional, Knowledgeable, and a Dream to Work With

Backed by two decades of hospitality experience, it’s second nature for me to anticipate every detail—from the number of bartenders you need at your welcome party to how many kouign-amanns you need at your sendoff brunch.

Meaning your celebration will flow exactly as it should.

Seamlessly.

Kate, Bride

“I felt like once the ceremony began, we didn't think about anything planning-related the rest of the evening. I am still looking back and smiling about our day, grateful that we got to spend quality time with our loved ones.”

Because of Lia, our wedding flowed effortlessly from start to finish.
