Several of my guests said the exact same thing, that they thought I had a professional mariachi playing from my sound system because the music was so flawless. They also accommodated several requests from guests and knew all of the songs. I handed out at least 10 of their business cards to guests. They were so impressed. Will definitely be hiring them again for my next occasion. Thank you also to the owner Ivan for being so courteous and professional!

I love the Mariachi! They played on my 60th birthday party just last week and they were a hit!!read more

She is so seamless in her transitions between Cantonese, Mandarin, and English and we love that her fun personality kept everyone engaged throughout the evening! You can tell Kate is incredibly experienced by how flexible she is with any hiccups. There was a brief mix up with our first dance song, and she was such a professional with pivoting to speeches first and making a great transition back into the first dance. She was also so sweet and nice during our planning call, and really made us feel comfortable because she understands all these family dynamics and really helped us feel grounded leading up to the wedding. If you are in need of bilingual MC services, Kate is 100% the best!

Kate was so understanding and waited until we were officially ready to have our celebration. Fast forward to 2022, we finally held our wedding. Kate was perfect! She performed as guests were entering the ballroom and she understood the assignment! We had beauty and beast inspired centerpieces and she sang Tale as Old as Time as everyone were finding their seats. Swoon! She was so professional in providing the Cantonese and English translation for our guests. We received many compliments from friends stating how amazing she was. She kept the crowd entertained and involved with everything going on. We could not have picked a better MC for our night. If you're in need of a MC to cater to Chinese speaking family and guests, we definitely recommend Kate.

We hired Sarah for day of coordination for our tea ceremony, western ceremony, and reception, and…read morethe MWS team did not disappoint! We had easy communication leading up to the big day, and on the day of, the team made everything seamless. Once I passed off all decor, things magically appeared in the right place exactly where and when I needed them. They kept us on pace with our timeline, which there was no way we could have managed as the bride and groom. The moms and aunties couldn't stop raving about what a good job they did. Especially since we were able to start dinner on time and not 2 hours late (which can be common in Chinese receptions...).

My husband and I LOVED working with Sarah and her team. If you're looking for non-templated wedding…read moreconcepts, work with Sarah! If this review is too long to read, just check out the images to see our final result. During our planner interviews, we focused on finding someone who could execute our multicultural wedding vision. From MWS' blogs and interview, we could tell they fully understand how to create unique multicultural weddings. One important tip for newly engaged couples - wedding planners don't create the designs of your wedding!! It's the florists' job. So finding a good planner is important because then they'll help you find good vendors, communicate your vision, and make sure everything is executed perfectly on the actual day. We had a BLAST on our wedding day. We knew Sarah's team got our backs, so we weren't stressed at all. I cannot stress enough the importance of the planner's role in your wedding!! They're the project manager. Their leadership and execution will affect your entire wedding and how well your vendors set up everything. The day of the wedding - our hotel venue Pasea hotel promised us that we'd be the only wedding booked on our wedding day. This was promised before we signed with them. On the day of, we realized they double booked another couple's reception without telling us. I actually bumped into the other bride and was very surprised about the whole thing. Sarah talked to the other wedding planner and made sure their music was lowered during our ceremony. everything went smoothly for both parties. 10/10 execution. Another green flag about MWS is that they helped us minimized our budgets. Sarah was real with us lmao. Whenever our ideas went too crazy, she'll hone us back and help find alternatives. Her network of vendors are all affordable and very creative, so that saved us a lot of work. Attitude 10/10. Our guests loved Sarah. She's bubbly but also will get sh*t done. I've been to weddings where stressed out planners would give off weird vibes to the wedding parties, but not this girl. She made everyone felt at ease while rushing people to stick to our schedules of the day. Just wanna say thank you Sarah again for making our most important day magical. You rock and don't be a stranger girl! Love, Brendan and Connie

Sam strikes a nice balance between being approachable and easygoing, but also knowing how to challenge and motivate my son.
