COJ Events

What COJ Events does

COJ Events is a boutique luxury wedding and event planning studio based in Palm Springs, California, serving the Coachella Valley region and a worldwide destination wedding clientele. The company provides full-service event planning and design across three core verticals: weddings (the primary offering, including destination weddings, cultural and religious ceremonies such as Hindu and Jewish weddings, and wedding weekend productions), social events (anniversaries, milestone birthdays, private dinner parties), and corporate events (holiday parties, galas, product launches, grand openings, and association events). Complementary offerings include venue selection consulting and hospitality advisory services. Clients are high-net-worth couples, families, and corporate buyers seeking bespoke, design-led events.

The business has no proprietary technology, software product, mobile app, or API; the core deliverable is the bespoke design and orchestration of events by a creative team. Distribution is exclusively direct-to-client through a consultation-led, quote-based sales model — there are no SaaS, e-commerce, or marketplace channels, and pricing is not publicly disclosed. The company relies on a curated vendor and venue partner ecosystem in the Coachella Valley, including preferred vendors (Luna Design Studios, Bright Event Rentals, Michael Segal Photography, Matthew David Studio) and premier resort venues (Indian Wells Golf Resort, The Ritz-Carlton Rancho Mirage, La Quinta Resort, PGA West, The Parker Palm Springs), which together support production capability and drive referral flow.

Revenue is professional services fees negotiated per engagement based on scope and complexity. Revenue, headcount, and ownership details are not publicly disclosed; the company appears to be independently and privately held with no VC, PE, or parent company ownership indicated. Marketing is primarily organic, driven by editorial features in Vogue, Martha Stewart, The New York Times, Brides, Style Me Pretty, Wedding Chicks, Grey Likes Weddings, and Carats and Cake, supplemented by an Instagram portfolio presence (@coj_events).
