Discover how Cherry Pop Events combines vintage flair with modern solutions to deliver unforgettable, stress-free weddings in Southern California.
When Laura Kinniburgh founded Cherry Pop Events, she wasn’t just launching a business; she was creating an experience. Born out of her passion for vintage charm and impeccable event planning, Cherry Pop Events brings the timeless elegance of mid-century style to modern weddings in Southern California. Combining 20+ years of event planning expertise with a love for quirky details, Laura has crafted a brand that speaks to couples who seek something bold, beautiful, and truly unforgettable.
A Retro-Inspired Wedding Planning Revolution
Cherry Pop Events was founded with one clear mission: to make wedding planning as fun and fabulous as the day itself. Laura wanted to take couples beyond the cookie-cutter, overly formal weddings and give them a celebration that matched their unique personalities.
“It’s all about offering a creative and personalized experience that reflects who you are as a couple,” says Laura, who adds a modern twist to the classic retro-glam style she adores. Whether it’s a full-service wedding or a quick pop-up elopement, Cherry Pop Events is known for crafting celebrations that are distinct, chic, and stress-free.
As a woman-owned small business, Laura takes pride in offering affordable yet stylish options for couples who want to make a statement without breaking the bank. “I believe love doesn’t need a country club price tag. It just needs creativity, style, and heart,” Laura says with a smile. And that philosophy runs deep in everything she and her team do.
What Makes Cherry Pop Events Stand Out?
Cherry Pop Events don’t just follow trends – they set them. The business boasts a distinctive brand identity that blends retro glamour with modern polish. While other wedding planners might opt for traditional themes or whimsical designs, Cherry Pop Events stands out with its bold, vintage-inspired aesthetic. Picture neon lights, heart-shaped sunglasses, and record players setting the soundtrack for a wedding day – all wrapped in a chic, polished package.
But it’s not just about the style. Laura’s decades of experience in the event planning industry are the backbone of Cherry Pop’s success. Her extensive background ensures that every detail is perfect and that her clients can relax and enjoy their day without worry. From managing timelines to dealing with last-minute hiccups, Laura’s problem-solving expertise makes her clients feel like they’re in the safest of hands.
In fact, one of Cherry Pop Events’ signature services is its Vendor Vetting Matrix™. This carefully crafted system ensures that each vendor recommended to clients is top-notch, trustworthy, and aligned with the couple’s vision. Whether it’s finding the perfect photographer or selecting a catering team that knows how to execute with flair, Cherry Pop’s clients know they can trust the team to provide the best.
The Magic Behind the Planning
At Cherry Pop Events, the goal is to make every wedding feel like an exclusive event tailored to the couple. “Every couple deserves a day that’s as unique as their love story,” Laura explains. Whether it’s creating personalized decor or ensuring every detail aligns with the couple’s retro-themed dream wedding, the result is always a celebration that’s truly theirs.
Laura’s clients rave about how her team’s attention to detail allows them to enjoy the day without the stress. From last-minute tweaks to last-minute vendor changes, she’s known for making problems disappear with grace and ease. Her calm demeanor, quick thinking, and impeccable style make her the go-to planner for anyone looking to create a memorable event.
Focus on Local Love
While Cherry Pop Events is based in Southern California, its reach extends across the San Gabriel Valley, where Laura has deep roots and local knowledge. Her love for the area is evident in the relationships she’s built with local vendors, venues, and community organizations. From working with local charities to partnering with the YWCA, Laura is dedicated to giving back to the community that has supported her throughout the years.
“Being able to help couples create memorable events while supporting local businesses and giving back to the community is incredibly fulfilling,” says Laura. “There’s nothing better than seeing a couple’s vision come to life in a way that feels authentic and true to who they are.”
A Glimpse into the Future of Wedding Planning
The wedding industry can often be overwhelming, with high prices and impersonal service. But Cherry Pop Events offers a refreshing alternative. Laura is on a mission to continue providing exceptional service to couples looking for something out of the ordinary. With a focus on creating fun, unforgettable weddings that don’t feel like another “cookie-cutter” affair, the company’s future looks as bright as a vintage neon sign.
“Ultimately, I want every couple to feel like they had the wedding of their dreams, something they’ll look back on with love and joy, not stress or regret,” Laura says. “At Cherry Pop Events, we make dreams come true, one fabulous detail at a time.”
