If Younghee is available on your wedding day, consider yourself and your fiance a very very lucky. As I browsed through the work of different florists, I fell in love with her work immediately- I found her styling of the flowers and color coordinating particularly aesthetic, romantic, and full of taste. We only communicated through email but she was easy to work with and so very kind. We had a small intimate wedding due to Covid restrictions but Younghee was still willing to work with us and our budget, and on the wedding day as I walked down the aisle, I was very shocked to find that Younghee gifted us a few pieces we did not previously discuss. Her beautiful work speaks for itself but on top of that, she really wants to make her brides' day as special as it can be and will go above and beyond. I cannot thank and praise her enough. Please hire her for your sake, you won't regret it. read more

I had the opportunity to work with Younghee in designing my wedding florals and I am so glad I did. I love being able to support local business owners when I get the chance and I have no regrets choosing My Wedding Sense. I shared a few photos of what I envisioned, met with Younghee once via Zoom, discussed the budget, and Younghee nailed it! Because of the nature of flowers and what's seasonal, you can't choose out of a catalog what you will get for your wedding day. You just have to trust that you've communicated your style and wishes clearly enough and hope your team can deliver what you want, I couldn't have asked for more. The arrangements were totally my style, they smelled SO GOOD, and they were within my budget! LOVE LOVE LOVE read more

Flowers are my rich-person splurge...you know, the one thing you'd have if you were rich? Mine would be fresh flowers (among many other things, haha). But while I looooove fresh floral arrangements, this aspect of wedding planning gave me a lot of stress. I'm not picky about flowers...I didn't know what I liked, didn't have set colors, and wasn't too fixated on details. I didn't even know what a peony was, haha...but I just wanted them to look NICE and not too formal or extra. More importantly, I didn't have $10k to shell out. When a fellow friend (who is both particular and has excellent taste) heard of my dilemma, she immediately recommended I contact Younghee. I immediately found her on instagram (@myweddingsense) and fell in looooove with the arrangements. Younghee was very responsive via email and even met up with us a full year before our wedding. Prior to meeting, she asked me to create (and link) her to my Pinterest board. My selections were all over the place, and she helped me narrow things down. At our meeting, she showed us her portfolio. My then-fiance and I each selected one arrangement we liked, I pointed out some bouquets I wanted, and that was it. She just asked that we let her know what colors we wanted as the wedding neared. As we got closer, she worked closely with our coordinator to come up with the arrangements. I was very, very big on repurposing things where we could, and luckily Younghee had excellent recs on how to keep things within our budget. She never once made us feel bad about our budget and really tried to work with what we had. She made these gorgeous altar arrangements that, along with our bridesmaids' bouquets, doubled as our sweetheart table decor. The flowers were so beautiful and so fresh...and exactly what we wanted (but didn't know!). I also hate when bouquets, boutonnieres, and corsages get wilty by the end of the night, but ours didn't. I only had a couple requests for her (no carnations or mums per my mom's request...and my low budget, LOL), and we went into our wedding not knowing what our flowers would look like. We just trusted Younghee, and I'm so glad we did. We received compliments from our parents' friends (you know how those people roll at weddings, LOL) for weeks after regarding our floral arrangements. The flowers lasted sooo long. I sent some of our arrangements down to LA for my grandfather, and he was able to enjoy them for about 10 days after the wedding. She put these huge, fluffy peonies in all our bouquets (my BMs in particular really, really loved their bouquets). AND the best part of all - in a huge surprise to my husband and me, she incorporated mint leaves in our bouquets (our hashtag had "mint" in it). Thank you, Younghee. :) We love the flowers so much...and I am now fully in love with peonies, just like all bridesmaids had thought I would be. read more

Younghee was my favorite vendor through all of 1.5 years of planning for our big day, our wedding. I'm pretty OCD and she exceeded my expectations from the beginning to the end. I literally could not have been more impressed. I think everyone that has encountered her, would agree with me that her sketches are AMAZING. Even my wedding venue remembered her beautiful sketches from a prior wedding. She also only takes 2 seconds to sketch them out! She is capable of being more than a florist if she wanted to. Younghee saved me from working with an additional vendor for our drapes on our barn door. She did amazing on that too. If you are planning yourself, I'm sure you must be so tired of reaching out to a gazillion vendors to get quotes, hoping they don't rip you off and having to calculate another delivery fee into your budget. I remembered my friend's flowers from more than a year ago and this was how I found Younghee. I was a bit worried because her wedding was in the winter time, so I wasn't sure how her flowers would last through 90 degree weather in a winery for mine. But, her flowers lasted beautifully, even a few days after! I'm jumping the gun here and writing my review before my photos are even ready because I feel like she deserves the credit and I'd feel selfish if I didn't share such a great find to my yelp followers. I'll update the post with photos once I get them. Save yourself the stress... if you managed to read this through... you have nothing to worry about and can stop looking for a florist now. :) read more

My Wedding Sense will create the flowers of your dreams for your wedding day or any other special day where you would like floral for added beauty! Younghee was so helpful and responsive since the first day I reached out regarding floral for my wedding. She answered any and all questions or requests I had and I never felt like a bother. With just a few details about the mood of the day I was going for and the typical colors I was hoping for she created arrangements that were even better than I could ever imagine. Mind you, I got married in DECEMBER! So I imagine it was tricky to source flowers during that time. She didn't care what time of year it was, she made my floral dreams come true! I am forever grateful! On top of all this I had an unfortunate reschedule last minute for the wedding and she bent over backwards to make things work for me and I can't thank her enough! If you want stunning floral arrangements for your event and a person to work closely with through the process this is the company for you! read more

First of all, I am very very picky about flowers and I WAS BLOWN AWAY with my wedding centerpieces and bouquets. My jaw dropped when I saw my bouquet! Younghee has a magical calling for flower arranging and she EXCEEDED mine and my guest's expectations. The color palette and intentional placement of each flower made my eyes gush! In addition to talent, she responds quickly to emails and tries to work with your budget! I'd pick her again for my wedding florals! read more

My experience with Younghee was amazing. She took the time to meet with us in person to discuss our wedding vision. We had a few follow up calls in between from the time we booked her until our wedding day. We leaned on her and her creativeness for our final displays and they all turned out better than we could have anticipated. She managed to capture our vision by a few photos and even with a few adjustments she still was able to make these changes quickly. I trusted Younghee from the beginning because of her expertise in being a florist. I'm glad I did and would do it again. Younghee is professional and kind. She explained everything so we had very little questions. She showed up on time to deliver the bridal bouquets and had all of our arrangements ready prior to our visit to the venue. (We had 2 ceremonies and photos were in all 3 different locations) she accommodated our needs. I can't speak anymore highly of Younghee and definitely out my stamp of approval on her. read more

Younghee is a pleasure to do business with! Very easy to work with, shares ideas, and is super budget friendly. Her vision is beautiful! i didn't know a thing about flowers but i gave her my vision, budget, colors and she was able to put together exactly what i wanted. She also offered ideas for table centerpieces which i ended up loving and she created an amazing garland that went over a frame during the ceremony. She put up my all of my back and forth and was very patient with all of my requests. She did both of my weddings (big and small) and i was very pleased with the results for both weddings. I highly recommend this florist. Thank you so much Younghee!! read more

We were referred to Younghee Baek of My Wedding Sense by our wedding coordinator. We really waited until the last minute to book our florist so we were beyond blessed to have been able to work with Younghee. I contacted so many florists but they were either booked or asking for a ton of money. Let's just say I wasn't willing to pay $10,000 for flowers. Prior to meeting with Younghee, we were certain we had our florist locked down. We thought she understood our vision, but we were very wrong. She created a sample centerpiece for us and I was so upset with the quality of the flowers and the overall arrangement. It just didn't make any sense. I was really hoping and praying Younghee would be able to execute. She went above and beyond my expectations and I couldn't have been more impressed with the quality of her work. When we first met with Younghee, I immediately knew we were in good hands. She started off by asking about our color palette and came prepared with a binder full of various colors to look at. I didn't have a set idea in mind, I just knew I wanted peonies and a light color palette with a few touches of pinks/peaches and no traditional roses. I showed her some pictures of floral arrangements I liked and the rest was up to her creative judgement. Throughout the remaining few months we had left, Younghee kept in great contact with me. She was always following up in regards to design ideas and creating a back up plan. Flowers are available during different seasons and it is often hard to predict what will be fresh and available at the time of your wedding. In my case, peonies were coming to the end of their season for my June 2013 wedding. Although I was very set on having peonies, Younghee created a beautiful back up plan involving Garden Roses. On the day of my wedding, I was so surprised with the quality of her work. The flowers were so full, fresh, and beautiful. She even got a hold of peonies to fulfill my wedding wishes :) My bouquet was my favorite, but everything she created was truly just as beautiful. She definitely exceeded my expectations and I couldn't have been happier. I have zero complaints and will send my friends and family to Younghee for any floral needs. read more

Younghee, the owner, did the flowers for my April wedding two months ago. I was lucky to meet Younghee at a small wedding fair thrown by Suji Events. Younghee had arranged several centerpiece examples for the event. My fiancé and I fell in love with one of her designs and got a quote from her on the spot that fit within our budget! Weeks later, we contacted her again and met with her twice to discuss flower designs. Younghee is a pleasure to work with--she is so polite and kind. I had several ideas for the flowers, but was having a hard time figuring out how they would all work. Younghee's talent for arranging flowers became clear as she sorted through my ideas, helping me figure out which ones would work together and what type of overall color scheme would work best with my wedding colors and bridesmaids' dresses. Memorably, she even pulled out a little kit of sample colors cut in the shape of leaves and flowers with a plethora of different shades. She let me pick out the colors I liked best and then would show me what a bouquet with those colors would look like, even down to the leaves that would be around them. We ended up with a blush pink, peach, and white color scheme that I completely loved. There were little bumps throughout the process that I expect are common--some of the flower types that I wanted weren't in season in April, but Younghee provided me with tons of options for alternatives and didn't even charge extra when I selected a more expensive flower. On the big day of the wedding, I was so surprised and delighted with the flowers. My bouquet was huge, and Younghee had even wrapped the base of the flowers with pink ribbon and lace, decorated with a small pink and white cameo-style pin. This was a wonderful touch that everyone remarked on. Working with Younghee as our florist was a wonderful experience and I highly recommend her for any wedding you are planning. You'll get excellent service and someone who really cares about the final outcome of your wedding. And on top of that, she has a true talent and eye for what will look good. With all of the many parts of wedding planning, it really makes a difference to have a calm, considerate, and sweet vendor on your side! read more

My husband and I wed in San Jose at the end of June of 2012, but I still remember those weeks of preparing. Just like many brides, I had been collecting ideas of what I wanted to see for my wedding. I may not be very creative, but I do appreciate beautiful things. Due to my limited budget, my husband and I had to opt out of having our wedding in a beautiful vineyard or a lovely outdoor scenery. Our next sentimental location would be my home church. The sanctuary of my home church is very clean and bare. The cafeteria, which would be used for my reception, looked like an industrial cafeteria. To a bride, it looked like decorating the two areas for a dream wedding would be an impossible task. Mrs. Baek helped me to prepare for my wedding months before the wedding day. She has an extraordinary amount of creativity and is very resourceful. Her goal wasn't to figure out what would be in her best interest, but she genuinely did her best to maximize my budget. She met up with me several times to show me her personal sketches and proposal designs and they put me at ease. She integrated my themes into the decorations and also had great feedback about how to make most of the space that we had. As the wedding day approached, I started to feel more excited about how the reception area would be transformed. I honestly, absolutely loved my bouquet. She added in my favorite flowers, peonies, which were thankfully in season. I loved the ways that she used my colors: lilac, pastel pink, and cream, to work them into the whole wedding. She took my inspiration boards and made them into reality. She also made my cake-toppers (the wooden painted dolls). She is not only wonderful with flowers and ceremony designs, but she truly is an artist! All in all I was very satisfied with how beautiful the ceremony place looked and also how the reception place looked. My guests (most of whom were members of my church) were in shock of how magically she transformed our cafeteria. Mrs. Baek is a magical person to work with. She is not only great in working with big themes and large-scaled projects, but she is also great in seeing how details fit into creating beautiful large events. She is very patient and also a great resource when it comes to planning your wedding. You won't regret booking her. :) read more

Ms. Baek is truly passionate about flowers. When we first met with her she spent a good portion of our meeting just designing my bouquet. We were impressed with her attention to detail and knowledge of flowers, and really liked her portfolio. Even though I wanted just one vendor for flowers, lighting, and decor, I wanted Ms. Baek as our florist because I knew she would give me the beautiful bouquets and centerpieces I wanted at a great price. She really cares about making sure you're happy and you're getting what you want. She did not disappoint! All the centerpieces, and especially my bouquet, were absolutely gorgeous. However, I cannot give a full 5 stars because she did run a little behind setting up and was a little late to the cleanup. Based on the experience of other people who are married, the florist pins the boutonnieres/corsages, but she said that was not her responsibility so everyone had to help each other get their boutonnieres pinned. Even though we had discussed in email several times which family members were getting the boutonnieres and corsages, on the day of when asked by the groomsmen, she said she did not know, and my father (!) ended up getting his boutonniere pinned by a staff member of the venue RIGHT before he walked me down the aisle. Two of the corsages (for my stepmom and grandmother), and one boutonniere (for my grandfather) never got pinned on the proper persons, which still upsets me a little =/ Ms. Baek really has a great sense of aesthetics when it comes to flowers, but can be somewhat disorganized. I would give 3.5 stars but she is a very sweet lady and the flowers were beautiful and fresh, so I rounded up to 4. read more

I feel so lucky that I stumbled upon Younghee on Yelp, because she made my wedding floral vision come true and I didn't even know I had one! I got married 2 months ago, and to be honest flowers was low on my priority list. I had some Pinterest-inspired bridal bouquets and my mind was constantly changing what arrangement I want. Younghee really was a lifesaver- I basically gave her all my pinterest links, color scheme, some flowers I like or don't like, and a budget, and she executed all the bouquets, boutonnieres, pinned corsages, garlands for kings tables at reception so amazingly that it blew me away. She knew I was planning my SF wedding from NYC, and was extremely accommodating and responsive in our email correspondence. I was a little worried at some point because I never had the time to talk to her or meet in person while I was in town, but that instantly went away the day of. Morning of wedding, I finally get to meet Younghee (and her beautiful daughter!) when they delivered the flowers to my parents house and I was instantly obsessed with all that she had done! Don't be afraid to give her your real budget- she was able to amend your order down to a $100 difference! Highly recommended, and she takes venmo! If I ever need a florist in the future, I 100% know who I am calling. Thank you so much Younghee and sorry for driving you crazy :) read more

My Wedding Sense - wedding bouquet- what Younghee envisioned I would like based on my Pinterest links, she was spot on! - Wedding Planning Near Me

My review below still stands true. I wanted to add that My Wedding Sense was, by a million miles, my most prized wedding vendor. Three of my girlfriends have been recommended or are using Younghee as their vendor also! I had two weddings during the weekend: one at a Buddhist temple and one at Casa Real at Ruby Hill Winery. Younghee did such a fantastic job. I had 150 people at the temple who raged about my flowers. I also had another 150+ guests at Casa Real who couldn't get enough of my gorgeous all-orchid bouquet. I won't forget how amazing she did with my limited budget. I really hope that those who are considering a flower vendor to only seek the help of My Wedding Sense. read more

If i could give Younghee 100 stars i would! I cannot say enough how happy and mesmerized we all (bridal party, guests and even the people helping cater the wedding) were with the flowers! She is sooo easy to work with. I emailed her some ideas and she understood exactly what i wanted...i think she envisioned it better than me...seriously...that turned out more beautiful than i had imagined. Although she does not have her own shop and works from home (which i think is genius!) she truly has an AH-mazing talent! She works around your budget and gives you ideas. I am sooo happy i used her! Would totally use her again for the heck of it. :) read more

Younghee made my wedding flower dreams come true! I was set on cherry blossoms for my early March wedding. Most of the florist I spoke to either quoted me 2-3x the price or told me it's not possible. Younghee was very personable and offered to meet me in person to discuss my vision. She is so sweet and will do anything to make sure the bride is happy. She even went with me to the venue to view the space to really see my vision. As a bride, an unresponsive vendor only adds stress to your planning. Younghee was responsive and always offered a listening ear to my (over the top) ideas. Her prices are extremely reasonable! She will offer ways to help you save money. She even texted me the week before the wedding saying she had bought too much orchids and offered to make my sweetheart table centerpiece (for free!). I mean, how awesome is that? Comes the day of the wedding, I could not believe how perfect it was. She worked really hard with the farmer to get the cherry blossoms to bloom in time for my wedding. I couldn't imagine having such a beautiful wedding without Younghee's help. I have been recommending her to all of my bride friends. Thank you so much Younghee, for making so many brides' wedding flower dreams come true :) read more

I hired Younghee for my wedding in San Francisco. I am super glad I hired her as I received countless complements from our guests about how amazing the florals looked.

Highly recommend and would love to work with her again in the future! read more

I was Mrs.Baek's first official customer for this business, I think. I got married in 2010, and Mrs. Baek was in charge of decorations and flower for my wedding. I really satisfied with her work because her work ethic was always beyond expectations. She also decorated my engagement ceremony before the wedding. Everyone complemented the art of her work on my special days and I sincerely appreciate what she has done for me and my husband. She is very artistic and has a good taste of decoration. Just to give you an idea of how Mrs. Baek prepared my wedding, I should start with many meetings that I had with her before the wedidng. She started preparing about two months ahead. Everytime we met, she brought different concept options for me to choose. Once we settled down with one concept, she actually drew how she vision this event will be, explaining in detail with plans of the wedding site, and details of the bouque and decoration. The actual outcome on the wedding day was amazing and more than what I've expected. We had our wedding reception at a fellowship area in a Korean church where it is very limited to decorate. She turned that place into a real nice and fancy restaurant like place with her hand made decorations. Not only the reception place, she cared about the main wedding ceremony and welcome table. My wedding was in winter time near Christmas, so she designed it accordinlgy. Everything was very beautifully done and her skills of decorations were so professional that everyone asked where I asked for decorations. My husband and I still really appreciate her whenever we look into our wedidng album. You won't regret if you work with My Wedding Sense, because it's worth every penny. If you want to make your special day unforgettable and show off Your sense of artistic taste, My Wedding Sense can surely help you and you'll successfully execute it. read more

Younghee is a consummate professional and I have nothing but the highest recommendation for her services and work ethic. I wish I could give her more than 5 stars!! I just got married in May of 2014 and used Younghee as my florist. I wanted a rustic chic look for my wedding and I didn't want the decor to look overly done. I wanted a casual vibe for my wedding. I had a vision in my head, but execution is more difficult. Now, just because something looks simple or casual does not mean it doesn't require control, planning, and work. It takes a lot of work to look SIMPLE!! Lol. This is where Younghee comes in. I interviewed 3 other florists before deciding to go with Younghee. What I really wanted was to just throw some money at someone, and not have to worry about flowers and have the venue look perfect. (It's what EVERY bride wants!!!) The two other florists I interviewed asked me way too many questions about flowers and color schemes, which I found irritating. I was already responsible for a plethora of other decisions, so I actually didn't want to think about which flowers looked good with what. I mean, I had no clue. I just had a vision in my head, but no knowledge of how to execute it. I just wanted to defer to the florist' expertise and vision. Anyways, at my meeting with Younghee, she came prepared with a giant beautiful portfolio. She had color palettes, a list of flowers, and pictures that she collected that she thought would be appropriate for my wedding. She even made preliminary color drawings of centerpieces she envisioned for my wedding. She told me she studied art and design back in Korea. I was like, ok! Dang! You're hired! Her attention to detail blew me away. Needless to say, the floral arrangements for the wedding was beautiful. She made maids bouquets, brides' bouquet, centerpieces for the tables, decorated aisles and the floral arrangement for the gazebo. I actually did not have to spend much time or money into any other decor for my wedding because the flowers was enough. At the last minute, she told me she purchased peonies for my bouquet. I couldn't afford peonies so we agreed not to put peonies in my bouquet. But somehow, she was able to purchase some beautiful pink and white peonies for my wedding. Younghee's designs, floral arrangements, and attention to detail exceeded my expectations. I was very happy with her work and would recommend her to all my friends. I'll post some pictures of Younghee's design as soon as I get it back from the photographer. read more

I am so glad that we found Younghee from yelp. I will recommend her to all my friends. Younghee has very good taste on the style and color arrangement. She also knows the season and related flower very well. Once I told her my wedding date, she showed me all the flowers usually available in that season to see what type and what color the flowers I like. She will also ask me to send her some pictures if I found something I like so that she can understand my style more. Younghee is very on top of her thing, she keep me update with every step. She is also very care about me. I am very touch since sometimes I felt that she treat me like her daughter but not just a customer. I still remember she message me immediate when she saw the flower I always want but the flower supposed to be very hard to find in that winter since my wedding is in mid-November. I know she shop in the flower market every often when it gets close to my wedding date since she try to see if she can find the flower I like. When I heard her voice from the phone, she sounds even more excited than me when she found the flower. In order to find some special classic centerpiece holder for me, she has shopped for difference place as well. During the whole process, I only described what type of style I want, and let Younghee to design everything. It turn out even much better than what I expect. Within our limit budget, Younghee did a fantastic job. My bouquets, boutonnieres and table centerpieces turned out perfect and gorgeous! One thing I need to mention is that my wedding is on Sunday. In order to make my flower fresh, she skipped her Sunday church and delivered flower to me. Thank you so much Younghee! Pick Younghee as your florist, you will never go wrong since she care about you! read more

During my wedding planning I was often asked, "What are your wedding colors?" My answer, we don't have one. My husband and I didn't want to limit our options by having to stick to a specific color or theme. When we met with Younghee we asked her for recommendations on color and look based on our venue. Luckily Younghee had been to our venue before so she knew exactly what colors would look best to add pop and what we needed and didn't need! She didn't try to upsell us and gave us her honest opinion which we really appreciated. We had a few in person meetings and she was very patient and helpful during the process. On our wedding day, we were very happy with Younghee's work. My bridal bouquet was beautiful!!! I had mentioned to Younghee my favorite flower were peonies and she was able to get peonies from Germany for my bridal and bridesmaids bouquets!! I was so happy when I saw the bouquets! For our centerpieces Younghee had picked out some really nice flowers and balanced it well with greenery and flowers pieces! Younghee loves what she does and truly cares about her work which made it easier for us to let go and trust her decisions! We would definitely recommend Younghee, she is super sweet to work with and is very talented! Thank you Younghee for everything!! read more

I was one of those brides that cared about details. From my wedding dress line to the length of the venue, I was very upfront about what I wanted and needed. At the same time I knew that I could not get all the flowers I wanted because my wedding was during the winter season. I needed someone to coach me and guide me of my options, but still execute the perfect wedding I needed. My Wedding Sense exactly that. She knew the flowers very well and the simple, yet elegant theme of my wedding. She is super detail oriented and very punctual in delivering what the bride absolutely loves! She suggested awesome ideas like the paper flower background for my dessert bar which got featured in WeddingPaperDivas blog! Everyone complemented on the wedding decorations and the flowers that matched perfectly with the dresses we had! You can trust her to do what she promised to do and count on her to do what is just best for you! read more
