Throughout our time with Karolina, she was very unorganized, forgetting many details that had…read morealready been discussed. We spoke to her a few times about her lack of organization, but she didn't seem to correct it. Karolina may need and assistant as she seems too busy. I wrote out all of the details so she wouldn't forget and I also provided the venue with a copy as back up. Karolina did not seem comfortable with conversing via phone so it was difficult to reach her. She sent long emails, ignoring our preference of communicating via phone due to our busy work schedule. Karolina's true lack of organization was obvious during our wedding rehearsal, as she did not know what to do. Everyone was lost because she didn't bring copies of the ceremony schedule. It was very embarrassing for our wedding party and the venue staff to keep telling us how unorganized, overwhelmed, and how much of an amateur she looked, and how rude she was to them when they asked simple questions. I explained to Karolina that she was unorganized and everyone could see it. She stormed off screaming "I am organized. I am organized", which was one of the most unprofessional and bizarre moments I have ever experienced. Karolina disappeared many times during our almost THREE hour rehearsal, leaving us to figure things out. She left without apologizing or even saying bye to me. The rehearsal put us behind 2 hours, which forced us to cancel our welcome reception for out of town guests. We had to be the mediator for some issues Karolina and our vendors had. Our makeup schedule was thrown off because Karolina lied about sending the wedding day timeline to our makeup artist. BUYER BEWARE: She will make up lies about us firing "many wedding coordinators and florist" , which is SIMPLY NOT TRUE. Not apologizing for how much stress she gave us, as SPECIFICALLY cited above, not addressing her performance, and completely making up lies, truly shows her true colors.

Dear Future Bride,…read more I am happy to give you nothing but my utmost recommendation that you book Karolina and book her now! I would like to give you a balanced review in which I tell you all the good things but also mention things to be wary of, but unfortunately I cannot-- I don't have a single negative thing to say! If there is one thing in our wedding planning that was absolutely worth every penny (and more!), it was hiring Karolina on as our day-of coordinator. She is by far the most reasonably and affordably priced day-of that we've seen, and her dedication to your wedding cannot be matched (and will be apparent immediately). As far as "value for the cost"-- look no further! She is priced WAY below the "big name" (and not so "big name") coordinators, and her attention to every one of YOUR details will make you feel like you've gotten away with a steal! She never asks you anything twice-- she will know every detail of your dream and vision as well as you do! While she is a "day-of" coordinator, her work starts the moment you hire her and she communicates with you and your vendors constantly up until the moment you say "I do." Her response time via email is almost immediate, and you never have to wait more than a few hours. In fact, she often emailed me reminders and such before I even had to contact her! I don't communicate very well over the phone, so I can't comment on her availability via phone, but if she is at all as attentive by phone as she is by email, you have will have no problem! The timeline that she creates is very thorough and very helpful. She helped keep everything organized and moving throughout the wedding process. She actively communicates with all of your vendors throughout your planning and the day of your wedding, and I didn't worry about anything on my wedding day-- I knew she had it covered! She is very friendly, and her demeanor is pleasant. This is a plus when she's dealing with wedding issues, as people feel comfortable around her and do not feel like they're being yelled at. She was punctual and professional, and was always there to help with "emergencies," even if it wasn't outlined in her job description (i.e. I forgot vase marbles and she was there with a full bag!!). Overall, I highly highly recommend her as your day-of coordinator!!

Everyone on the team was incredibly helpful, the hanboks were stunning, and the MCs that day were simply amazing. The ceremony backdrop and table decor were thoughtfully and beautifully arranged, making for incredible photos that we'll cherish forever. Throughout the ceremony, they took the time to explain the traditions, which helped our guests fully appreciate and connect with this special tribute to my heritage. Guests have been talking about it for weeks! We're already looking forward to working with Oh Happy Day again for other important Korean celebrations, like our future children's 100 Day Celebration. We can't recommend them enough!

She helped us change things around to match our budget. We worked with Alina for a few months before we put down a down payment so I thank her for her patience on that.

Olga from Prestige wedding decor helped make our dream wedding happen, after COVID caused us to…read moreswitch to plan B. Olga worked with us to help plan our fairy tale wedding when we were supposed to get married this May. Her suggestions were right in line with our style and her prices were very fair. When we had to pull the trigger on our big fat 500 person Indian wedding, Olga worked with us to design a whole new mini outdoor wedding this August. She helped transform a little outdoor gazebo into a beautiful wedding mandap, and truly worked with us on every detail until the last moment. She was very helpful when we had to postpone and let us move our deposit to a different day with no issues. When I asked for extra decorations last minute, she went out of her way to make it happen for us. I will definitely be using Olga and Prestige decor for all of our future events!

Our wedding was on 5/29/22 and we had Adrian as our DJ. We couldn't have imagined a better night!…read moreAdrian kept the dance floor packed from the moment we started dancing until the end of the night. The only time the dance floor was ever empty was when people had to take a break to catch their breath. My husband and I really wanted to focus on finding the perfect DJ company because we really wanted a night where everyone was enjoying themselves and dancing. We were nervous we wouldn't find a DJ that could incorporate both Persian music (I come from a Persian family) and keep the party going with a mix of old-school boogie and today's hits. We were happy to hear that An Enchanted Evening had a wide array of different DJs that specialized to the couple's music taste based on the online profile they created with their must-play and do not play songs. Adrian really listened to what we wanted and we gave him the freedom to pick and choose which songs worked based on how our guests were reacting to the music he played. We were happily surprised that he played more Persian music than we were expecting which was a definite result of how well he mixed the music together to keep the night full of energy and fun. He also did a great job of not playing overplayed songs that my husband and I were tired of hearing at every wedding we go to. We are so grateful for An Enchanted Evening and Adrian for creating a night that we'll never forget!

Jenny is more much than a coordinator. My mom had a small stroke about 6 weeks before our wedding…read more Jenny went from day-of-coordinator to a life raft. I will never forget, after sending her the email explaining my mom's situation, Jenny calling me almost immediately - literally just offering her ear. After letting me express all my fears, tears, and anxieties - she got to work. She encouraged me to take a beat to feel all the feelings, and then insisted we have another call a day or two later so I could "brain dump" everything wedding on her. Jenny was able to take that unorganized, jumbled mess of a phone call and spit out a highly detailed, actionable, and prioritised to-do list that broke down not only what I had to do, my husband had to do, but she took on things that MY MOM was supposed to do. I cannot tell you how much this was appreciated - it makes me teary eyed just thinking about her kindness and how she went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was a spot of brightness and hope amongst the dark weeks leading up to it. Sure enough, my mom recovered beautifully - was not only AT the wedding, but dancing a speech-giving with the best of them. Thank you, Jenny, for believing that would be so - getting us to the finish line and just overall being a wonderful human.

Jenny from Blue Moon Events was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding…read more Although we hired her for a day-of coordination package, the support she gave us in the months leading up to the big day was absolutely invaluable. Her regular check-ins kept us on track, she helped us stay organized, and she personally recommended nearly all of our amazing vendors. She also constantly made sure we were doing okay and offered help wherever she could. She truly went above and beyond. When the wedding day arrived, Jenny and her husband Jeff took over and everything went off without a hitch. We didn't have to stress about a single thing, which meant the world to my wife and me. We were able to be fully present and enjoy every moment thanks to them. I would recommend her to absolutely everyone. She is a total pro and an absolute joy to work with. 1000% worth it

Ladies!! Thank you…read moreso much for all you did to help my wedding day turn out as beautifully as it did. From all of the planning we did over a year ago until the day of the wedding. I still can't get over how much fun the day was! But you helped the entire process go smoothly and I never felt overwhelmed which I normally do as a certified control freak! The florals turned out better than I could have imagined, and I will never forget the added touches you took care of! You and your team went well above and beyond, and I can't tell you how appreciative Mark and I are of everything you did. It did not go unnoticed! Your attention to detail and communication with our vendors made things flow on the day like a perfectly choreographed production! We just had to show up and enjoy ourselves and we did! Thank you so much, we can't wait to come up with a party to work with you all again!
