My partner and I were looking for guidance and help in planning our wedding celebration. We were…read morerecommended Two Perfect Events by our venue, Mister Jiu's, given their prior collaboration and experience with them. We were kindly welcomed by Leah and introduced to our planner, Yoko, who was amazing, carefully guiding and making our vision a reality, accommodating our preferences and budget, and helping us with the design and layout of the big day with all of our vendors. She provided multiple vendor options, communicated closely with them and us throughout the bidding and hiring process, and ensured we were all on the same page from planning through the walkthrough and up to the day of the event. One of the greatest things about this process was the clear, concise communication and organization that made planning, payments, and decision-making understandable, step by step, rather than a labyrinth of crossed wires and deadlines.  The day of our wedding was as effortless as could be. It was great to have the team from Two Perfect Events, along with Yoko and Leo, there to assist with setting up and taking down decorations and rentals, help guide guests, event staff, and our vendors, and ensure everything, including our deliveries and rentals, went according to plan. We also appreciated that our planners kept an eye on both of us the entire night to ensure we were doing well and enjoying the festivities, getting our food, making sure we were at the right place at the right time, and saving any items for our personal requests. We did not expect that Two Perfect Events would take behind-the-scenes photos and videos of the entire day and the in-person walkthroughs, which gave us a chance to reminisce on the process and quickly provide a glimpse of our families and friends outside the eyes of our wonderful wedding photographers.  We appreciated that our vendors were all in sync, and the coordinators ensured our entire process minimized the stress of planning, which was what we had hoped for all along. They provided us with good advice on choosing vendors, insurance for our wedding, and what to expect when working with multiple parties. It was evident that Two Perfect Events had considered multiple contingencies and scenarios in which snafus or unexpected issues may arise throughout the process, and we were glad that Yoko was always prepared for them, including giving us enough buffer time due to traffic delays so our guests could arrive on the big day.  Everyone complimented us on the evening, and it went by so smoothly. They commented that this was the least stressful and most fun wedding they've been to in a long time, which conveyed the vibe we were going for. We wanted it to be a fun yet intimate evening where everyone enjoyed getting together to celebrate, and we were delighted to celebrate that day with them. Thanks again to our wonderful planner, Yoko, and Two Perfect Events! We couldn't have done this without you.

Worked with Two Perfect Events for a wedding at the Kohl's Mansion in Burlingame, and I can say…read morethat it was such a seamless experience for us -- meaning that if they know how to work with all these different kinds of vendors, then as a client, you can rest assured that you're in good hands. There was clear communication before the event, and on the day of, Leah was able to show us where to go and was available for any questions that came up, so we were able to set up seamlessly. The night was a success, and the guests loved our claw machine. They also took it a step further to help capture some of the memorable moments from the night to share with us. We didn't ask for it, but it was such an awesome gesture, and we really appreciated that! Good planners are everywhere, but GREAT planners, like Two Perfect Events, make sure that all needs are met (whether it's for the couple or all the vendors) and thensome!

My AMAZING wedding would not have been possible without TDE! We chose the Glitz package with a few…read moreadd-ons, and it was worth every penny. My husband and I received countless compliments on how smooth, organized, and beautiful our wedding was. Thanks to the incredible TDE team, I was able to enjoy the most perfect wedding day. Jessica: Jessica was our main point of contact throughout the planning process, and she was truly amazing. Whether we had questions or requests for the decorators, MC, DJ, day-of coordinator, photographers, videographers, or HMUA, she was always there to help. She was patient, kind, incredibly organized, and never made me feel like my questions were too much. Our Service Instruction worksheet was so detailed that every vendor knew exactly what to expect, which made the entire day run seamlessly. Decoration Team: The décor for both our ceremony and reception was absolutely stunning. Just two weeks before the wedding, I made a major change to our reception backdrop, and the team worked hard to bring my new vision to life. Jessica even arranged for me to see digital mockups after we discussed how important they were to me. Because of that, I was able to completely refresh the design from the inspiration I had shared over a year earlier. My advice: be as specific as possible about what you like and don't like--it really helps the decorators create your vision. Everything was executed beautifully. MC Eric: Eric was phenomenal! We specifically wanted a bilingual English/Vietnamese MC, and he exceeded every expectation. Even our hard-to-impress Vietnamese aunties and uncles couldn't stop complimenting him. He was charismatic, organized, and handled last-minute changes effortlessly. We had to adjust our timeline during the reception, including pausing photos and adding speeches, and he kept everything flowing naturally without awkward downtime. He also perfectly coordinated our unique sequence of dances with the DJ, making every transition feel seamless. DJ Otis: We didn't know who our DJ would be until the wedding day, and we were thrilled it was Otis! He absolutely nailed the music all night. The dance floor stayed packed until 11 PM because he knew exactly how to read the crowd. He mixed current hits with 70s-90s favorites that kept both younger guests and the older Vietnamese crowd dancing. The glow sticks and light-up glasses were a huge hit, and the energy never dropped. Day-of Coordinator Carina: Carina was incredible. She was warm, personable, and unbelievably organized. I thought my planning documents were detailed, but hers were even more thorough! She made me feel completely at ease leading up to the wedding and even drove to Pleasanton to run our rehearsal (an add-on that was absolutely worth it). Multiple vendors and family members commented on how efficient and organized she was. Photography & Videography: Our package included an engagement shoot plus two photographers and two videographers. Sam photographed both our engagement session and wedding, and his work was beautiful. We chose his light and airy editing style, and our engagement photos turned out amazing. On the wedding day, Sam and Christine were fantastic. They captured every moment while making us feel comfortable. One thing I'll never forget was how Sam noticed we hadn't had a moment to ourselves because of nonstop photos. He quietly pulled us away under the guise of a private reception reveal so we could enjoy a few peaceful minutes together. It was such a thoughtful gesture. Overall, I couldn't be happier that we chose TDE. If you're looking for a wedding that's beautiful, organized, low-stress, and genuinely enjoyable, I HIGHLY recommend them. They truly made our dream wedding come to life.

I had a very positive experience working with TDE. It was easy to schedule a free consultation,…read morewhere we first spoke with Otis, and could ask many questions up front before deciding to move forward. Otis was kind with great attention to detail from the start. Ultimately, we decided with the glam package and our contract was very clear to understand with cost breakdown for removal of specific services / add-ons. I updated it many times with Jessica, our planner, as we made changes throughout the months, and she was always so patient and clear. Our MC Otis did a wonderful job with maintaining flow of the program. Otis was also working as DJ for a good portion of the evening, so props to him! We had closer to an hour compared to 1.5 hours of open dancing because we were behind schedule, but everybody was on the dance floor and he kept the party going seamlessly. Weddings are hectic and there are so many moving parts; we did get behind schedule but we were still able to do everything we wanted to do. Our photo & video services were set to end, but Otis was very professional in discussing with us if we wanted to extend our video services, communicative on additional cost, at the moment. Our photographer, Ben, along with the team Stanford and videographer, Christina, were so fun to work with. Ben was great at providing direction, which is especially helpful since we were not used to posing. I have not received photo & video yet as it has only been a week, but from an experience standpoint, they were attentive to detail, communicative, and glided effortlessly through the event. My makeup artist, Vivi, is the sweetest person. She was super attentive to detail and my particular skin type. I was worried about makeup because I don't wear heavy makeup often. I ended up paying for a make-up trial, and I was so happy working with Vivi that I had no worries for the wedding day. We also added-on make up for our mothers, which Vivi did the morning of. The reception decor turned out so pretty! Everything was set-up as scheduled. I was really happy with the welcome backdrop and name sign. It was also great to take pictures with guests with the backdrop since we had time during cocktail hour. We asked TDE to incorporate a large screen as the backdrop of our sweetheart table, so we found an example from a previous wedding they did, and it turned out exactly as expected. We added the photo-booth, which was so popular with the guests! There were so many cool props and our guests were having tons of fun with it. I also sent TDE a custom drawing that I wanted for the photo strips- and it turned out just like I imagined. We chose Grand Dynasty as our reception venue, and TDE communicated set-up details with our restaurant event manager, Esmond, in the days leading up to the event. I highly recommend TDE and the team that we worked with! Thank you for making it an unforgettable experience.

I hired Kenneth for my father's birthday celebration at a restaurant. Kenneth responded quickly to…read moremy quote request. The price was reasonable for his time and the delivery of all digital images (no nickle and dime'ing). Deposit and contract signing were easily completed online. For the next several weeks until the photo session, Kenneth responded amiably to my planning questions and was helpful in advising what might work better. He took the initiative to reach-out as the date approached. On the day-of, he arrived punctually and listened to my requests. He was unintrusive at the party and made people feel comfortable having their pictures taken. He took time to wish my father a happy birthday, which I thought was a lovely gesture. The photo results started rolling-in the very next morning. I was very happy with the results. The photo journal of what happened at the party was more perfect than what I had even expected. The gallery website was very easy to use. I had the full delivery just 1.5 days later. Thank you Kenneth for capturing these precious moments of time of my family, while allowing me to enjoy my party without thinking about photography.

Let me start by saying that I'm sure we were not an easy couple to deal with, but Laura was…read moreabsolutely fantastic! We couldn't be more happy with our wedding. It was perfect! So, let me explain: Not only did my husband and I have enormous trouble deciding on anything....we couldn't even agree with each other! I don't know how Laura did it (in fact, I am hoping that she opens another business soon that offers marriage counseling), but she created the perfect event that exceeded both of our unbelievably high expectations! She was gentle and sweet when we needed it, and she was tough (but still nice) when we needed to make a decision. She somehow knew how to deal with both of our opposite personalities at the same time. She asked us questions that I frankly couldn't understand why.....but later realized when we walked into the reception and took in the beautiful and uniquely personal space! She held our hands (and sometimes shoved us) through every step of the process: picking the venue, finding the perfect rings, setting up all of the appointments, choosing the flowers (which she ended up doing because we knew nothing.....and they were PERFECT, and not expensive), choosing a great photographer, choosing the food and wine, our outfits, our invitations, our gifts, our cake.....absolutely all of it. And it was exactly what we wanted (even though we didn't know what we wanted). I wish I could give this review a million stars. The most important day of our lives was beyond what either of us thought possible and we owe it all to Laura and Ming Blue Designs. Thank you THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!! If you want to deal with a true professional that will help you have the perfect (and stress-free) wedding and/or event......you have found the right one with Laura at Ming Blue Designs.
