Why Being a Preferred Planner Matters: The Venues That Trust Jane Alexandra Events
One of the questions we are often asked by newly engaged couples is, "How do we know we're choosing the right planner?"
While there are many factors to consider, one of the strongest endorsements a planner can receive comes directly from the venues themselves.
At Jane Alexandra Events, we are honored to be included on the preferred vendor lists of some of Southern California's most sought-after wedding venues. These partnerships are built over years of successful events, strong relationships, professionalism, and a shared commitment to creating exceptional experiences for our clients.
Being recommended by a venue is not something we take lightly. It reflects the trust that venue teams place in our ability to care for their property, collaborate with their staff, communicate effectively, and ensure every event runs seamlessly from start to finish.
Here are just a few of the venues that trust us enough to recommend us to their couples.

Why Venue Relationships Matter
When a venue recommends a planner, it means they trust that planner to represent their brand, work collaboratively with their team, and deliver an exceptional experience for their clients.
For couples, these relationships often translate into a smoother planning process. Preferred planners understand venue logistics, know key contacts, anticipate potential challenges, and can often provide valuable insight that comes from firsthand experience.
At Jane Alexandra Events, we believe that successful weddings are built on strong partnerships. We are incredibly grateful to the venue teams who continue to trust us with their couples and are proud to work alongside some of the most respected properties in Southern California.
If you're considering one of these venues for your wedding, we'd love to help you create a celebration that feels personal, intentional, and uniquely yours.
