Event Planning, Design & Coordination

When native Southern Californians Courtney Lutkus and Brandon Davis decided to launch a corporate event planning business in Orange County back in 2014, they knew finding success would be no easy feat.

Early on, the two entrepreneurs set the bar high and remained persistent in their efforts to make Simply Radiant Events a force to be reckoned with in the industry.

“Starting an event planning company in Orange County was tough,” recalls Courtney. “There are many planners in the area, so setting us apart from the crowd took some time. Now that we have been in the industry for so long, we have been able to establish our company with clients such as Mini Cooper, The Donut Life Museum, PacSun, Taco Bell, and more. We are excited to continue to grow and adapt to the ever-changing industry and world.”

Serving corporate clients across the Orange County and Los Angeles areas, Simply Radiant Events is a full-service event production company specializing in innovative design and concepts, venue transformation, and event management.

The event planning process starts with a consultation, during which Courtney and Brandon get to know their client, focusing in on their priorities for the event, and creating a “dream team” of vendors perfectly suited for the occasion. The talented twosome is skilled at transforming a client’s rough idea into a stunning reality.

Staying relevant in the bustling event planning business also means introducing exciting new services to their clients.

In addition to providing party planning and event design services covering everything from event logistics, virtual event support, team-building events, styled photoshoots, and corporate events, SRE now offers luxury “Pop Up Picnics” for refreshingly reimagined corporate gatherings.

The SRE team takes over from start to finish for a carefully curated design and execution—scouting the perfect setting, designing a delectable menu that complements the theme, selecting the linens and florals, setup, and break-down of all food and décor, and more. All that’s left for the client to do is enjoy.

Simply Radiant Events offers a certificate course for those interested in becoming wedding and event planners, in partnership with a well-known, respected company that has provided this top-notch training for more than 25 years.

Producing and designing unique, stylish soirees close to home is important to both Courtney and Brandon. “Planning events is all about creating community. We were both raised locally, and enjoy planning and designing parties for our community,” Brandon says.

Simply Radiant Events’ highly sought-after services include glamorous galas and grand openings, private dinners, large-scale fundraisers, community networking events, and much more, functioning flawlessly as a one-stop-shop for all of their clients’ needs.

SRE’s portfolio is bursting with creative touches and unparalleled style, resulting in an event that’s always the talk of the town. Company casino nights, beachside bonfires, dining al fresco with a lush, tropical vibe, or a seated dinner surrounded by vintage luxury cars—you name it, Simply Radiant has done it—and always with a pinch of polished pizazz.
