Horrible experience, stay away!…read more This is a review for Eliza at BEL Events for her wedding planning services. We met Eliza at our venue 8 month before our wedding date. During the first session she presented herself well, and she talked and bragged a lot about her 18 yrs of experience in event planning and stories about how she handles wedding situations. So, we thought she is the right event planner for us and signed a contract. After signing the contract and making the payment, she was very hard to find and we did not see the expected action from her side, and every time we followed up, her response was: "don't worry I will manage everything before the wedding day". We were asking for the basics of planning such as timeline, vendor recommendations (a few to choose from) and communications (which was part of the contract) but not no action except a quote of her own rental service. We were getting closer to the wedding date and her lack of action made us so worried and very frustrated. Eventually we had to get involved and did almost 90% of the work ourselves. She was very hard to find but even when we could talk to her, she would create more unnecessary problems to an extant that my wife had panic attacks after a few meetings we had with her. 2 month before our wedding she caused so much anxiety and frustration that we decided to end our contract with her and find another planner. Thankfully, our new planner was amazing and our Wedding planning went very smooth after that, and the event was as wonderful as we could imagine! With way lower cost than what Eliza had proposed! After I requested to cancel the contract she disappeared and never responded to our emails, which is very unprofessional. Here is a list of a few issues from our experience of working with here: 1- Accessibility: every time we had a question or needed to talk to her, it was taking several days until she gets back to us. With irrelevant excuses, like she would show me her busy google calendar! 2- Push to use her own services as vendors: Per her contract she had to suggest different vendors so we can choose. But since she has rental and flower services, she was arguing so much to stop us from even looking at other options! She charges unnecessarily expensive! By doing a little research, we found our vendors and saved at least 50% with same or better quality! 3- Nonsense arguments and rude attitude: In many occasions she was just insisting on holding the event the way SHE wants, without paying attention to our request or desire. Every time we requested something, her answer was: "I don't want MY event to be that way or I don't want MY guests to be that way"!!! With a condescending attitude emphasizing that "I have 18 yrs of experience and I know what to do"!!! Any simple request would become a long story and unnecessary argument. In one occasion my wife requested that guests throw flower petals while walking out of aisle, and she immediately said: "No!, you can't do that, I don't want my cleaning crew spend time on cleaning the petals"!!!! In another occasion Eliza was insisting on only using her recommended valet service (which was quoting more than double the price of the service we eventually used) and on top of it she was forcing us to rent extra parking lot out of venue and pay extra for shuttle service!!!! While the venue had enough capacity! And when I respectfully said: I am confident that the venue has enough capacity for parking, she got very angry and said: "in that case tell all your guests to use UBER and they can't drive their own car"!!! It was a nightmare working with BEL Events and I don't recommend her service due to lack of professionalism and decency in her business.

So many great things to say about Monique, it's endless!!…read more We found Monique through our venue, and went with the full-service package which was worth every penny. Monique, my mom, and I planned a wedding together in 7 months and it was a wild ride. Monique was so calm and patient throughout the entire process and always kept us in check. Even though my mom and I were extremely picky, Monique constantly would find solutions to any problems we would have and was always so kind to us. She came with us to all our vendor meetings and kept helping us search for things until we were satisfied. Monique is incredibly organized, detailed, helpful with suggestions, and knowledgeable about anything and everything. Also a great communicator and helped us talk to vendors. Every single one of the vendors she recommended did a stellar job. Having always heard wedding planning in incredibly stressful, Monique took that all away. Even the month leading up to the wedding, my friends were asking me how could I be so relaxed? The answer is simple... we had Monique! She made a very comprehensive timeline to follow the day of the wedding. On the day of, she brought three assistants and ensured everything ran smoothly. Friends and family were telling us after the wedding that they could tell the wedding was extremely well organized and the best wedding they've ever been to. She turned my dream into a reality! Every detail was done perfectly and beautifully, exactly how I envisioned it to be. Monique also truly tried to get to know who we were and understand us. We felt a personal connection with her. Truly touched with all her efforts, and the follow-up care she gave us. So grateful for all she has done for us. Can't wait to use her again for our next party in the future!

Monique was on the list of planners for our venue and she was highly recommended--and she truly exceeded our expectations! From the start, Monique was exceptionally kind, organized, thoughtful, and efficient. During our first meeting, she listened carefully to our design ideas and helped us create a vision for our wedding, which she brought to life beautifully. Her attention to detail was unparalleled, and she meticulously planned every aspect to ensure our wedding day ran seamlessly (and it absolutely did!). Monique went above and beyond by coordinating with our vendors, communicating with them (and us) promptly and professionally. Her organization transformed what could have been a stressful process into such an enjoyable experience for me as the bride. I cannot thank Monique enough for her incredible work--she's not only an amazing wedding consultant but also a truly wonderful person, and it was an honor getting to work with her.

A friend…read morereferred us to Cindy, and hiring her was truly one of the best decisions we made during our wedding planning process! From the very beginning, Cindy was organized, calming, supportive, and genuinely invested in making our wedding day everything we hoped it would be. Planning a wedding can feel overwhelming at times, but Cindy's guidance, attention to detail, and incredible work ethic made the entire process so much easier and more enjoyable. She was always quick to answer questions, offer thoughtful advice, and help us navigate every decision with confidence. On the wedding day itself, Cindy was an absolute rock star. Knowing she was there overseeing everything allowed us to fully relax, be present, and enjoy every moment with our family and friends. Every detail was thoughtfully executed, and everything flowed so seamlessly that we never had to worry about a thing. Our wedding was absolutely stunning. So many of our guests commented on how beautiful the flowers were and how impressed they were with every detail of the day. I loved being able to tell them that our amazing wedding planner was also responsible for all of the gorgeous florals. The flowers exceeded anything I could have imagined and brought our vision to life perfectly. Every arrangement was elegant, timeless, and beautifully designed. One of my favorite details from the entire day was my bouquet. It was absolutely beautiful, and even now I still find myself looking at it and smiling. It perfectly captured everything I had hoped for and is such a special reminder of our wedding day. Beyond her incredible talent, Cindy is simply a wonderful person. She truly cares about her couples and goes above and beyond to make sure they feel supported throughout the entire process. We are so grateful for everything she did for us and cannot recommend her highly enough.

The entire staff was so kind, attentive, and efficient throughout the night. Everything felt very organized even with such a large crowd. I especially have to shout out the bartenders, specifically, Anais and Rhiannon!! They were AMAZING. The bar was slammed all night, but you honestly would have never known from their service. Drinks came out so quickly even if it was a large order (guilty), everything was made correctly, and they were genuinely some of the best drinks I've had! On top of that, they both had the best energy and were so friendly and fun with every guest who came up to the bar. They somehow managed to keep everything moving while still making each interaction feel personal, which was so impressive considering how busy they were. Anais and Rhiannon seriously added so much to the atmosphere of the wedding and were one of the things that stood out to me most from the night. You can tell they are both great at what they do and genuinely care about giving guests a good experience. The wait staff was also wonderful staying communicative, keeping everything clean on the tables, checking in, and helping box things up. Such a beautiful venue with an amazing team. I am now planning on looking at this place for my future wedding!

Luckily for us, 3 Petals took those wise words and said "hold my champagne." We gave 3 Petals team a large task of 270 guests, a moody romantic theme, picky eaters, quality drinks, amazing food, and a floral chandelier that made us gasp. Not only did the team understood the assignment, they handled all of it without missing a beat. We can't talk about 3 Petals without talking about the staff. And we have to start with Ashley, because she deserves every thank you we could give. As our POC for the entire year leading up to the wedding, she was an absolute sweetheart from start to finish. Every email answered promptly, every question, no matter how small, was met with patience and clarity. It felt like planning a wedding with a friend who genuinely wanted our day to be perfect. Ashley truly set the tone for what the entire 3 Petals experience would feel like, and that standard carried through every single interaction with their team. The venue staff as a whole are warm, genuine, and flexible. You can tell they actually love what they do. The venue itself is a true blank canvas. We wanted a moody, romantic theme and 3 Petals team suggested maroon draping. Game changer. It completely transformed the space and gave the room a warm and intimate atmosphere. The team provided extra lighting to balance the moodiness of the room and made sure our linen choices tied everything together perfectly. Their in-house rentals are fairly priced, their florist team is incredibly talented, and the floral chandelier they created was honestly more stunning in person than anything we had imagined. Since they have established relationships with so many local vendors, coordinating everyone was smooth and stress-free. Now the food. We need to talk about the food because this is where 3P truly shines. Many of our guests were from families of great cooks. We are talking picky Asian moms and aunties who will absolutely let you know if something did not meet the mark. Every single one of them complimented the food. This was the highlight of the wedding for us. We went with Signature Menu 2 and swapped the first course for cocktail hour bites, and that decision alone was worth it. We had tried the cocktail food at our tasting and knew immediately it was going to be a hit, but the actual wedding night confirmed it. Every single item was amazing. The curry shrimp was juicy and perfectly balanced with just the right amount of curry flavor, served on a crispy bite that had the most satisfying crunch. The halibut ceviche was a fresh, beautifully executed Asian fusion take. And the filet beef cubes were tender, soft, and seasoned so perfectly that every single bite felt intentional. And those were just the appetizers. Dinner raised the bar even higher. Our front runners from the moment we tried them were the twice cooked short ribs and the steamed sea bass, and they delivered on the wedding night exactly as promised. The short ribs fell completely off the bone and melted in your mouth. The sea bass was incredibly fragrant and cooked to perfection. The soup was delicate yet packed with generous amounts of shrimp and crab, and they did not skimp on a single thing. And the lobsters with garlic noodles? Bomb! All our guests raved about these dishes. The compliments did not stop at the wedding either. Weeks later, guests were still bringing up the food unprompted. That speaks volumes about what By 3 Petals puts on the table. Our guests really came for the wedding and stayed for the drinks. The full top shelf bar meant every cocktail actually tasted like a cocktail. No watered down drinks, no flimsy plastic cups, just well-made cocktails served right. The venue went above and beyond by helping us craft his and her signature drinks. It was a small personalized detail that got people talking all night and made the bar feel like part of the experience rather than just a table in the corner. Venue by 3 Petals is truly the full package and one of the best decisions we ever made for our wedding. Thank you 3 Petals Team for the best night of our lives!

The meeting that we had at the venue, Ijou was there to ask questions that we didn't think of and made sure to help answer any questions that the venue had for us later.

We owe it all to I-Jou and Maylin at IM Events & Design. The first time we met with I-Jou and Maylin to discuss my wedding, I was instantly sold on their abilities. They both strike the perfect balance of professionalism and being personable. These ladies are fun! At that point I was just getting started and the idea of how much had to get done was overwhelming but the duos enthusiasm put me at ease. Their personalities really showed through and hearing them talk about how they work, their process, made me confident that I could trust them with such an important day. My fiancé and I had very strong ideas of what we wanted in our wedding and I-Jou and Maylin were very receptive to all of it but with all of their experience they were able to bring so much more to the table that we had not considered or were even aware of. Communication during the planning process was terrific. My fiancé and I have really weird crazy schedules and they never seemed bothered or annoyed. From walking the venue to discussing table setting, after each of our meetings I left feeling great because of the progress we made. I-Jou is meticulous in taking notes and created a detailed timeline which became the backbone to the entire event. She helped us to visualize step by step the order of events and how they would transition smoothly. If you want to pull off the wedding of your dreams then you need to work with the best; don't skimp. I-Jou's attention to detail and Maylin's design sensibilities were an asset in the planning of our wedding. When the day finally arrived, I knew unequivocally that hiring IM Events was the single best choice we made in the planning of our wedding. I-Jou and team really shined. There is nothing better than to sit back on the day of your wedding and enjoy the occasion...you know...take it all in and have FUN! We were able to do this because we had full confidence in I-Jou and Maylin. I remember being led out to the banquet while the photographers were getting their "clean shot" before the guests sat down for dinner and just being floored at how beautiful everything was, the flowers, table settings, and lights; it was absolutely magical. The rest of the evening ebbed and flowed beautifully. There was a slight hiccup toward the end of dinner but I-Jou and team handled it so quickly and effortless that nobody really noticed. I was very impressed. This is what you get when you work with professionals like IM Events. Their experience allows them the confidence to work under pressure while seemingly pulling it off effortlessly! After the wedding we received so many compliments from friends and family but the icing on the cake was that our wedding photos were published in California Wedding Day Magazine! I could go on and on but suffice it to say choosing IM Events & Design from the beginning helped me and my fiancé to realize the wedding of our dreams. We are so grateful to all their hard work. I highly recommend you book I-Jou and Maylin for your wedding. You will not find two lovelier ladies in the business.

We truly cannot say enough amazing things about the Sugarplum & Co. team. If you're looking for a…read morewedding coordinator or planner, we highly, highly recommend working with this team! We had been engaged for over a year before we really started planning and honestly had no idea where to begin. We had all the basic questions -- How do you set a realistic budget? What do things actually cost? Is the wedding we're envisioning even feasible? We spoke with several planners, and Abby immediately stood out. From our very first conversation, she was incredibly helpful, kind, patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping us. Even before we officially started working together, there were so many green flags. Choosing Abby and her team was a complete no-brainer. We planned our wedding in under a year, and Abby, Amanda, Kat, and the entire Sugarplum & Co. team were incredible every step of the way. They gave us the tools, resources, guidance, confidence, and reassurance we needed to bring our vision to life. You may know what you want your wedding to look and feel like, but having experts by your side who know what works, what's realistic, and how to bring it all together is invaluable. Their expertise also goes far beyond the creative side of planning. From budgets and vendors to reviewing contracts, asking the right questions, and making sure we were setting ourselves up for success, they were an incredible resource. There are so many things you simply don't know to look for when you've never planned a wedding before, and we always felt like we were in such good hands. Most importantly, they genuinely care. They helped guide us through decisions big and small while always making sure the wedding felt like us. We had so much fun working with them -- from the planning calls and walkthroughs to mock-ups and the wedding weekend itself. With their help, we were able to truly enjoy the process and ultimately bring such a special weekend to life. The Sugarplum & Co. team is knowledgeable, talented, smart, savvy, and genuinely some of the sweetest people to work with. We couldn't have been happier with our experience and would recommend them in a heartbeat. Thank you, Abby, Amanda, Kat, and the entire Sugarplum & Co. team, for helping us create such an incredible and unforgettable wedding weekend. We are forever grateful! xo

Abby is an absolute rockstar wedding planner! Where do we even start? From our very first call with…read moreAbby, we knew she was different. She wasn't just trying to sell us a package - she genuinely wanted to get to know us as a couple, our story, and the kind of vibe we wanted our wedding to have. That first impression stuck with us. Over the next two years of planning, Abby and her team brought our ideas to life and helped to make our dream wedding a reality. Design: We told Abby we wanted an "East Meets West" theme that blended our cultures in a way that felt modern and elegant, a tough balance that could've easily come off as cheesy in if executed poorly. But Abby nailed it of course, her design sense is unreal. From color palettes and floral choices to the way she tied together modern décor with cultural elements, everything was cohesive and elevated. She has an incredible eye for detail and always found creative, out-of-the-box ways to make our ideas work. The end result was a wedding that felt truly felt like us! Communication: Throughout the entire process, Abby and her team were consistently on top of communication. She kept us updated between meetings, sent friendly reminders, and made sure we were always aligned on next steps. It's easy for things to slip through the cracks when planning something this big, but Abby kept everything organized and stress-free. We never once felt out of the loop, she was always calm, professional, and genuinely fun to talk to. Vendor Management: Abby's vendor management skills are next level. She has deep connections and knows everyone in the wedding world. When we needed vendors for flowers, desserts, or décor, she already had a curated list of the best options with pros and cons ready for us. Some of our vendors were booked more than a year in advance, but Abby and her team were always on top of follow-ups, contracts, and logistics. By the time the big day arrived, every vendor was perfectly coordinated. It really felt like we had assembled the Avengers of wedding vendors! Working Style: We can't say enough about how enjoyable it was to work with Abby and her team. They're so friendly, positive, and genuinely care about their couples. You can tell they love what they do and that they actually enjoy working together - it felt like they were more of friends than coworkers. Whenever unexpected hiccups came up (and they always do in wedding planning), Abby handled them with grace and a sense of humor. She's done hundreds of weddings, so she always had the experience to guide us to make informed decisions. It was so fun working with the entire team and it made the stressful process of wedding planning feel less stressful. Execution: This is where Abby and her team truly shine. Planning is one thing, but executing flawlessly is another and they did it all seamlessly. From coordinating vendors to keeping our timeline on track, they were everywhere and nowhere all at once, putting out fires behind the scenes before we even knew they existed. The day flowed perfectly. At the end of the night, we were blown away to see how they had already packed up all our belongings, made sure our ride was ready, and tied up every little loose end without us lifting a finger. That level of thoughtfulness really showed how much they care. Budget & Financial Management: The truth is weddings are expensive, and it's easy for costs to spiral if you're not careful. Abby was phenomenal at keeping everything organized and transparent. She tracked every expense, set reminders for upcoming milestone payments for vendors, and even handled tipping for all our vendors so we didn't have to stress about it on the big day. What really stood out was her honesty and foresight -- anytime a decision could push us beyond our budget, she proactively flagged it and walked us through the financial trade-offs before we committed. Thanks to her meticulous tracking and planning, there were zero surprises at the end. Everything was clearly outlined and accounted for, which gave us complete peace of mind. In short, Abby and her team are the best in the business. They bring design expertise, organization, and heart to every step of the process. You'll see what we mean once you have the first introductory call with her. She's the kind of planner who truly loves what she does, doesn't settle for anything less than perfect, and it shows in every detail. We highly recommend her for anyone looking for a top class wedding planner!
