We had a complex approach to the music production and event choreography and she worked every step of the way to help make sure it turned out the way we wanted it to. She was great with negotiating and coordinating with vendors (both candidate vendors and chosen vendors). She worked hard on really thoughtful, thorough design mood boards that showed she'd paid attention to our theme ideas, so Jonathan and I could make good decisions. On the day of the event, she was like a drill sergeant getting things on-point, on time! She treated us as friends, and we are very glad to have trusted her with our big day. We are happy to recommend her to anyone planning a memorable wedding or other event.

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.

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.

What stood out most was her dedication -- even when she wasn't feeling well, she made sure we were fully taken care of and that everything stayed on track. On the day of the wedding, Jessica and Vanessa from her team were also so sweet and wonderful to work with. They made everything run smoothly and helped us truly enjoy the day without stress.

She was also very helpful in giving advice on how to execute our personalized ideas to ensure they turned out well. She is extremely organized and gave us such peace of mind leading up to the big day, especially by coordinating exactly what we needed to bring versus what her team would handle. It was also a huge help that she had a variety of decor items we could borrow, like card boxes, frames, and easels, which saved us from having to buy them ourselves. She had worked with most of our vendors before and ensured that everyone was on the same page via email leading up to the day. On the wedding day, Sushie and her team checked in with us regularly to make sure we had everything we needed. We are so glad we chose her for her expertise and her can-do attitude!

My husband and I found her on Yelp, and we truly enjoyed working with her throughout the planning process. We initially reached out to Vicky while planning our tea ceremony, and one thing I really appreciated was that she offered Mam Qua (gift tray) rentals, which made the process much more convenient. Vicky was professional, responsive, and wonderful to work with from start to finish. She beautifully decorated our church and brought our blue-themed wedding vision to life. The backdrop was stunning, and she completely transformed the restaurant venue into something elegant and memorable. Everything looked even better than we had imagined. I also loved that my bridal bouquet and the bridesmaids' bouquets were made with fresh flowers and looked absolutely beautiful throughout the day. Thank you, Vicky, for helping make our wedding so special. I highly recommend Queen Bridals to anyone looking for a talented and reliable wedding florist and decorator!

I debated writing this review, but I felt compelled to share our experience. This review is not to…read moreslander Queen Bridals in any way, but to offer honest feedback that may encourage some reflection. Like many couples, we approached our wedding with excitement. A friend referred us to Vicky, and we didn't think twice. In hindsight, perhaps we should have done more research, but we are easygoing people. We communicated our vision, gave Vicky creative freedom, and trusted her as a professional. We weren't difficult. We asked for something simple, elegant, and meaningful. Instead, we experienced stress, embarrassment, and disappointment. In the weeks leading up to the wedding, Vicky voiced concerns that our venue, Koi Palace, was too small. We reassured her we had attended several beautiful weddings there ourselves, space doesn't seem to be an issue. While she eventually said she'd make it work, her lingering doubt was noticeable. On the day of the wedding, I arrived at the venue at 5:20 PM and found our guests waiting outside due to the venue not being ready. Inside, I observed Vicky and her team still working and did not wrap up until 6:00 PM, the scheduled start time of our reception. Later, Vicky insisted she had finished by 5:30 PM and had time to mingle with our vendors, but that version didn't align with what I witnessed or what our vendors shared. The most heartbreaking part came when my wife and I stood before the photo backdrop to take pictures with our guests. Instead of our correct monogram, the backdrop displayed the letters "V & A," despite my wife's name starting with a "J". Our guests noticed and pointed it out. We were stunned. To us, this wasn't a minor mistake, it was a glaring and deeply embarrassing moment. We ended up removing the initials ourselves. Even then, we didn't lash out. We waited, hoping Vicky might follow up to ask how the day went. She didn't. Two days later, I reached out and met with Vicky in person. I calmly asked how she thought the event went. She indicated everything went great and didn't recall any issues. When I showed her a photo of the incorrect initials, she looked at it without immediately recognizing the mistake. Only after I pointed it out did she acknowledged it and offered to Photoshop the images as a solution. That moment was disheartening. It showed a lack of understanding of what her role meant to us. This wasn't about a photo, it was about how we felt in a moment that can't be edited. It was about getting the basics right on a day that only happens once. After expressing our disappointment, we asked Vicky for a 30 percent refund. Not out of spite or anger, but because we truly felt the value of the service fell short of what was promised. The emotional weight of her error left an unsavory impact throughout our evening. We didn't demand the refund on the spot. I encouraged her to sleep on it and consider our perspective, to put herself in our shoes. She appreciated how non-confrontational we were and ultimately verbally agreed to the refund via Zelle. Three days went by. Nothing. I followed up with a message. No response. Eventually, Vicky replied and asked to speak. During our conversation, she reversed course and said she no longer felt the refund was warranted. She maintained the decor had been finished well before 6:00 PM and sent us a video of guests taking their seats at 6:01 PM, which only confirmed she or her team were still at the venue at that time. Technically, she completed the decor by the start time, which falls within the contract, and while we shared our plans for pre-reception desserts and snacks, we cannot fault her for that aspect. As for the wrong initials, to her credit, Vicky was apologetic to some degree and acknowledged the error, but indicated a 30 percent refund was unrealistic. I explained again this wasn't about a backdrop, it was about my wife being displayed by the wrong name, in front of everyone, on her wedding day. It was about the emotional toll and the lapse in attention to detail, especially when Vicky had worked almost exclusively with my wife during planning. How that mistake happened is still beyond me. Candidly, Vicky admitted to mixing up my wife's name with another bride. In the end, Vicky refunded 7.5 percent, stating since we removed the initials, it didn't technically ruin the wedding. No, it didn't ruin the wedding. But it undoubtedly affected how we felt. It cast a shadow over the night. It made us feel discounted, dismissed, and ultimately shorted of a service we were counting on. I believe Vicky put effort into her work. I believe she cares to a point. But her unwillingness to follow through on her word or genuinely consider the emotional impact of her mistake left us deeply disappointed. Mistakes happen, but how you respond to them matters just as much as the service you provide.

We got started with lists and details three months out and she gradually took more pieces off my plate as we got closer to the day.

I loved that she took over the communication and timing pieces with all of my vendors and that we could do a walkthrough of the space together before the event. The day of, though...that's where she really shines! Along with her assistant, Kristine truly was the boss of the event. Keeping us on time, organizing the final touches for our escort cards, getting my husband I where we needed to be and managing all our guests (including a couple of unexpected extra additions). She was the lead amongst a team of amazing women that made our day unforgettable. I can not recommend Kristine more to any future couples out there.

We booked Kristine for the month-of-coordination, which included unlimited email communication for three months. But even beyond that, whenever I needed help or had questions, she was always responsive. Having Kristine on our team allowed me to not have to worry about forgetting or missing anything. In our communications leading up to the wedding, we tackled every detail relating to the day, including items that never even occurred to me. Then on the day-of, I just sat back, relaxed, and enjoyed every second of the day, because Kristine and her team made sure that I was completely taken care of. Kristine's rates are incredibly competitive. She's detail-oriented, professional, and knowledgeable. But I would say the thing that makes her the perfect wedding coordinator is her honest enthusiasm for planning and weddings. Pair that with her sweet and friendly personality, it made me feel like I had a trusted friend helping me run the event, rather than a professional (but stranger) just doing a job. Our wedding came out gorgeously and we couldn't have asked for more. Thank you again for the amazing work!
