Baby and bridal showers
Soft palettes, long tables and a backdrop for the photos, with the florals kept low enough to talk across.
Baby shower planning in Los AngelesThe look of it
Event design and styling in Los Angeles
Event design is the part of a party your guests see and photograph: the colours, the table, the backdrop, the flowers and the signs. We design that look for celebrations across Los Angeles, then either hand you the plan or come and style it ourselves.
Overview
One idea, carried all the way through
A party looks designed when its details agree with each other. The napkins pick up the balloons, the cake repeats the flowers, and the welcome sign is lettered like the menu. None of that is expensive on its own. It takes a plan made before anyone goes shopping.
That plan is what we make. It starts as a mood board and a colour palette and ends as a design guide detailed enough to build from: what goes on the table, what stands behind it, where the flowers sit and what each sign says.
You can take the guide and bring it to life yourself. Or you can hand us the whole thing, and we source the rentals and florals and style it on the day.

The process
Designing an event with us
The consultation
We start with the occasion, the space and the feeling you want the room to have. Photos you have saved help, and so does a list of anything you already own and want to use.
Mood board and palette
We pull the idea into one board and a small palette, then test it against your space and the time of day. Colours that look lovely at noon can go flat under evening light.
The details
Then the specifics: the tablescape, the backdrop and balloon concept, the dessert table, the florals, and direction for every sign and printed piece. One revision is included.
The guide, or the day
You finish with a guide you can shop and build from. If you choose The Bubbly Experience, we source the rentals and florals, coordinate the vendors and style it all before guests arrive.
Occasions
Events we design
Kids’ birthdays
A theme taken all the way down to the cookies and the favour bags, with a backdrop built to be photographed.
Kids’ birthday parties in Los AngelesDinner parties
Twelve to twenty people and one table. With no crowd to carry the room, the linen, the glassware and the light do all of the work.
Engagement parties and milestones
Small celebrations for the people closest to you, such as an engagement dinner or a fortieth. We design them around one table and one idea.
The Bubbly Files
Design details from The Bubbly Files
Real celebrations we designed and styled. The board at the end is one of our Monday Moodboards, which are concept boards rather than photographs of a party.

These boards are ideas rather than photographs. The images show how a theme could look, not a party we have styled.
“I cannot recommend this team highly enough. From our very first conversation, their communication was great and they made sure every detail was accounted for. They brought our vision to life perfectly.”
Working with us
The design and the day, from the same two people
We design with the setup in mind, because on The Bubbly Experience we are the ones building it. A backdrop that looks right on a mood board also has to fit through your side gate.
We design around what you already own. Bring the vintage cake stand or the family tablecloth, and we will build the palette to suit it.
Service area
Event design across Los Angeles
We design celebrations anywhere in Los Angeles County, with travel included on the days we come to you, and further across Southern California with travel quoted before booking. Most of our work so far has been in San Fernando Valley homes and backyards.

Good questions
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between event design and event planning?
Design is how the celebration looks: the palette, the table, the backdrop and the details. Planning is how it happens: the budget, the vendors, the timeline and the day itself. The Pop Blueprint is design on its own. The Spark Partnership adds planning, and The Bubbly Experience adds us on the day.
Do you supply the décor and rentals?
We recommend them and, on The Bubbly Experience, source and coordinate them. Rentals, florals, balloons and printing are billed to you directly by the suppliers, with no markup from us.
What does a mood board look like?
Our Monday Moodboards give you the idea: a palette, a set of images and notes on how to get the look. They are concept boards. The one we make for you is built around your date, your space and your guest of honour.
How many revisions are included?
One design revision at every tier.
