Simply put, Sassy Little Bee is the reason we had our wedding in Southern California, and was the…read moresingle best decision we made!!! Her experience, thoughtfulness, enthusiasm, attention to detail, amazing list of vendors/friends, and love for what she does didn't just complement our wedding - it defined it!! As New Yorkers, for several months after our engagement we flirted with the idea of a destination wedding, but were overwhelmed by the choices and the prospect of managing a list of vendors from across the country. After one conversation with Amanda, our trepidation disappeared and was replaced with pure enthusiasm for what we could do together. With zero hesitation, we signed up for a "Full Service Wedding Planning" package and never looked back! Pretty quickly into the process, Amanda assessed our vision, and introduced us to a tremendous group of vendors, helped us lock in our venue (Darlington House in La Jolla), and provided a roadmap to help us understand what the road ahead would look like. Each month, for over a year, we had monthly calls with Amanda that were collaborative, productive, oftentimes therapeutic, and in an era of Pinterest-inspired fads and whims, kept us focused on our original vision. One of the most amazing qualities about Amanda is that she communicates extremely well with different personalities, has an instinctive awareness of her client's needs, and provides room for the process to be as collaborative or as done-for-you as you may want. Amanda went above and beyond in every regard for our wedding, and her commitment to us having *our* perfect wedding was unyielding. Over the course of planning our wedding, we made a couple trips out to California, not because we needed to, but in part because we were so excited to spend time with Amanda and the amazing vendors she introduced us to. A few months into our wedding planning process, we were so enamored with and impressed by Amanda, we even asked her to officiate our wedding. This was a testament not just to our extreme trust and faith in her, but how safe she made us feel throughout the process, how well she got to know us, and how obvious it was she was just as invested in our big day as we were. Turns out, it was a great decision; she was a phenomenal officiant -- truly magical and so incredibly thoughtful. (Not a surprise!) Throughout the wedding journey, we met and hired many super talented vendors, and could not have been more pleased with the results, but the singular credit for everything being as magnificent as it was goes to Amanda, her ability to communicate with our team of vendors, unite everyone behind a clear vision, and ensure it was executed precisely, with love and joy from all those who were involved. When you work with Amanda, you don't just get a wedding planner. You get a wedding visionary with the ability to take everything up a notch (or 10!) She works with love, coaxes it out of everyone involved, and truly embodies and executes on the ideal of a heart-centered wedding. Without reservation we recommend Sassy and her team for anyone looking for a unique, special, genuine, and/or well-executed wedding. We are forever grateful for Sassy Little Bee!

I would not have wanted anyone else by our side on our wedding day. Amanda is so calm and collected…read moreand efficient -- and a true professional in the industry. She will allow you to totally enjoy your day without noticing a single thing that may or may not go wrong. It almost felt surreal to fully experience and take in our wedding day after hearing how easily you get distracted or pulled in different directions. Looking back on the day I felt incredibly present and able to appreciate all the little moments - I genuinely feel Amanda is a big reason why. Amanda's nickname, Sassy Little Bee, is totally appropriate - she's super sweet, quirky and a kid at heart, but meantime she can be tough with vendors and won't let them get away with excuses. We had a few tiffs with a vendor and Amanda helped me through all the strife and headaches - even at 8am the morning after the wedding. Most importantly, hiring Amanda gave us total peace of mind. I was confident that her years of experience meant there wouldn't be a single detail forgotten and I was right (not to mention - have you SEEN her wedding day emergency kit?!). If you're getting married at Brick - don't look elsewhere. Amanda knows the venue like the back of her hand and can foresee any disaster as well as expedite approvals because she knows exactly what the venue needs from your vendors. Bonus - the sweetest touch was her thoughtful, handwritten card left at our table for us to read during dinner, reminding us to savor every moment of the night. Thank you Amanda for ensuring our wedding was such a smooth-running experience.

We had several incidents happen on my wedding day that would have been catastrophic if Meghan wasn't there to diffuse the situations and get everybody back on track. She is very professional, prompt and she can really follow your vision. When I arrived the day of, everything looked exactly how I imagined it would. Not only did Meghan ensure that our wedding day went smoothly, she was also a pleasure to work with. She makes you feel instantly comfortable and at ease. She also provided me with some great tips at our pre-planning meeting. Meghan is very skilled at coordinating events and my guests could not stop commenting on how amazing she was. Thank you Meghan!!

I am very disappointed in what Meghan did for my wedding. She was very unorganized, unhelpful, and…read moregenerally a waste of money. I met with her a few times before the wedding, and each time I felt more stressed after talking with her than I did before. On the day of our rehearsal, she double-booked herself. We had previously arranged with her that the rehearsal would start at 6, but she insisted that it was supposed to start at 5:30. She then complained about my pastor and other wedding party members who were late because of a fire. To top it all off, she left around 6:15, which meant that my pastor was forced to run the rehearsal without her (which worked out for the better). In all of the waiting around before we started, she made fun of my family members and was generally rude to everyone. On the day of the wedding, we woke up to pouring rain. I was distraught, as could be imagined with an outdoor wedding. After my bridesmaids and family finally calmed me down, Meghan calls freaking out, asking me what my plans were to deal with the rain. Obviously, this upset me again as she had said that I was not to worry about the rain plans or anything else, especially on the day of the wedding. Everything was worked out by my mom's best friend, who ended up taking on all of the roles that Meghan should have on the day of the wedding. Finally, Meghan just would not leave me alone! She kept talking to me when I was just trying to look around at my wedding, chatting casually with guests instead of working, and did not keep the events of the night moving. I am very disappointed with Meghan's service and hope that others will take my experience into consideration when choosing a wedding planner or coordinator.

Hiring Janice and her team is one of the best decisions I've ever made. My fiancé and I were…read morefortunate enough to meet her in person before hiring Won Love Events. Prior to getting engaged, I always knew I was going to have a massive wedding due to my huge Filipino family (at least 100 people on both sides). I also knew I needed to hire someone to help me plan the big day. After meeting with Janice a few times, we knew she was the one to fulfill that role. She is the most detail-oriented person I've ever met. She has a great memory. She's also extremely experienced in the wedding industry and it clearly shows. All of these qualities about her helped form my dream wedding into reality when the big day arrived. I was very particular with what I wanted my wedding to be & she always kept our best interest at heart. From hiring the right vendors - to making sure we got the style we wanted, she made it happen. Through out the planning process, Janice asked me questions that I never would have thought of -- such as preserving my bouquet. I didn't even know that existed & I'm glad she told me about it because now, I have a wonderful keepsake from my wedding. She's also very organized. On the day of the wedding, she had everything printed out and laminated in a folder (the seating chart, list of people of the Wedding party, Ceremony details, timeline, etc.) Even my best friends and family were blown away with how great she and her team was. Before the Ceremony, the Won Love Events team put all our decorations out. Guided the bridesmaids, groomsmen through out the day and made sure everything ran smoothly. I don't think the day would not have been as smooth without them. There were a couple of hiccups with some of my vendors, but because the Won Love Events team is so experienced and prepared with back up plans, our wedding seemed flawless. Working with Janice monthly leading up to the wedding was so fun. She treated me like family. I miss working with her already. If you're looking to hire an amazing team, look no further. Won Love Events is the ONE. They will take care of you as if you're their own family and you won't regret it. If I had another wedding (hopefully NOT LOL), but if I ever did....I would hire them again in a heartbeat.

When I met Janice I didn't know where I wanted to get married but I knew what elements I wanted in the venue. Janice sent me excellent choices and weultimately went with the venue choice of our dream! The venue was amazing and exceeded our expectations. The Won Love team will work for you and help you you stay in line with what you had planned with in the beginning, including budget. Janice was easily accessible through email or phone, we had key meetings throughout that helped solidify the wedding planning. On our wedding day, everything went seamlessly. My wedding was an absolute dream, everything from the decor, the placement of my special touches placed by Won Love was so special. I was so impressed with everything I wish I could relive the whole day. Janice treated us and those we worked with much respect and was so kind in all our interactions. She is knowledgeable in what questions to ask, a trait that is invaluable when booking a venue, vendors and more. You're not only getting a wedding planner you're getting a wedding advocate in the best sense.

They were extremely communicative and outlined a great timeline for planning. They were always a text or call away for even the smallest question. Their knowledge was far beyond what I got from googling or asking around. They attended venue meetings and coordinated with the on-site coordinator without any prompting. It made my life so much easier. Once Covid hit, we had to cancel our wedding and they were extremely understanding even though their business was also being affected. Come 2022, we re-connected to have them help coordinate our reception do-over. They were, yet again, amazing to work with. On the day of, they had things done before I even thought of them and truly made my day just enjoyable. They thought of the little things and the big things for the event to go off without a hitch. I had so many compliments on the flow of the event and I credit those two for making it happen. Thank you to Karl and Glynn for being so incredible at what they do. Hire them for your next event - you will only be thankful and appreciative!!

Initially I had looked into wedding planners that typically did Middle Eastern weddings to make sure everything went smoothly, but everyone I was finding seemed to copy and paste the same 4/5 styles, and I wanted something much more unique. That's where Karleigh and Glynn just made me fall in love with their ideas, and they were so excited to learn about our culture and asked so many questions, we knew it was the right decision. We did the full planning service even though we had a lot of details down on our own, but we wanted to make sure that Karleigh and Glynn were informed every step of the way. There were so many things I would have never thought about that they made sure to check in about while planning, and then once we had everything planned they had a timeline broke down to the minute I swear. It was so relieving knowing from the moment we got to the venue Glynn and Karleigh were not just on top of everything, but had such good relationships with everyone it just put everyone in our family at ease. K&G really gave me such a unique wedding we will never forget.

She executed the whole three-day affair, from rehearsal to rehearsal dinner, the makeup and hair/get ready rooms, ceremony, reception, and post-wedding brunch. She gave us excellent vendor recommendations and was able to get us preferred pricing. Sara was also very good at guiding us through the process - neither my husband or I are familiar with the wedding industry and how things work, she was there every step of the way helping us out. I am not a very creative person (I'm an accountant for a living) and Sara was able to tell me what decorative elements would make an impact, where to save money and DIY, and what the current trends/traditions are in the wedding industry to incorporate into my wedding. I'd highly recommend her for any complex wedding and event planning needs. She killed it!
