I was appalled to learn after my wedding was over that Michelle was rude and yelled at multiple…read morepeople and guests at my wedding. I will review both the good and bad about having Michelle as my partial day of coordinator. I met up with Michelle months before the wedding to talk to her about hiring her for a 4 hour shift during my wedding. She seemed nice and courteous. I needed her for 2 hours to set up some DIY items I had made for the ceremony and 2 hours for reception. I had made all the things for the wedding and she didn't have to provide anything. The good was that she was responsive to phone calls and texts. She came to our rehearsal but had to leave early for a concert which I didn't mind very much bc since she was a partial coordinator and also came early so I could show here where I wanted things to go. I did notice that her attitude towards my other vendors was not pleasant on the wedding day. I saw her be snappy to at least two of my other vendors who were really patient and nice but I was too busy as a bride to really think anything of it at the time. Later on I found out that she snapped directions at my bridesmaids and groomsmen to do tasks that I had paid her to do. They said at one point she was just sitting at a bench and not doing anything. She complained that she didn't know where things were suppose to go so my groomsmen took the blueprint that I had printed out for her and did the set up themselves. Several of my bridesmaids complained that she was rude and just didn't do her job. Michelle also complained that I didn't tell her what to do with our centerpieces even though I did multiple times. Overall, I would say my bridal party did at least 80% of the set up of our ceremony (they transported and set up the arch, the flowers in the aisle way) and finished setting up some reception tables like the dessert table. Michelle had to do the rest and set up some signs at the ceremony, put up some reserve seats signs for family, help us with procession, set up the dessert and check in table and centerpieces at the reception but she did not do it with grace and was rude to my friends and the other wedding vendors. We had a lot of mishaps as all wedding do, some vendors were really late but the only vendor complaint I got was that Michelle was rude. I was very overwhelmed that day but even I was not rude to my vendors and my guests and bridal party. For someone that is paid almost $90 a hour just to be at my wedding and set up some items, she didn't do a good job by any means. I wanted Michelle there to help take the load and burden off my bridal party but it sounds like she made it worse for them. I hope she will be able to be more courteous to her future bridal parties because as a bride, hearing that your 4-hour coordinator was rude and snappy to your friends and vendors is not pleasant. My friends had to jump in and help us despite dealing with her attitude. I can not recommend her and I'm sorry to say that if I could redo the wedding, I would go with a different coordinator or none at all.

THE BEST HIRE!!!! Christine and Lavish were recommended to…read moreme by a friend at work. She said her sister was a wedding planner and created beautiful weddings. She was not wrong! I am so impressed by Christine and her team. My husband and I were engaged for over a year and Gabriela took care of us in the beginning from getting a vision board together, a color palette selected, and an overall concept/theme put together. They recommended different vendors and were realist about setting a budget. I originally found their online aisle planner website difficult and hard to navigate at first and learned to really appreciate it down the road. It wasn't that it was hard to navigate more than I didn't take the time to explore all the different features. It was a life saver for me and later turned into my wedding bible because it housed all my vendor information, payment schedules, important dates, seating chart, checklists, and more. Fast forward to the month before the wedding. Christine was amazing and set up all our final vendor meetings, etc. she made sure all the vendors talked to each other and coordinated everything with the hotel. She took care of all the vendor logistics, COI, etc. Which at the time, I didn't realize was a lot. She was crucial in selecting our decor and creating the timeline. The day of the wedding comes and Christine was there bright and early setting everything up. We had an attendant, Tiffany, assigned to the bridesmaids, another one dedicated to the groomsmen, Christine setting up in the reception hall, and later, Diana, a runner and they all were amazing! They were there the entire time of us getting ready and making sure we could connect with Christine as she handled the vendors coming in. They made sure we were taken care of, checked in, and never left. Diana was also a life saver and had my shoes ready for me to change into after all the photos. I could go on for days and never capture how much Christine and her team truly helped us. They helped set up, tear down, managed my family and guests, managed all the vendors, and handled all the melt downs. They were the absolute best hire! I am truly impressed and am forever grateful to Christine and her team. I 100% recommend Lavish & Co. for any wedding. They were truly amazing and went above and beyond, exceeded all expectations. My husband and I are not the easiest people and I know that. But, Christine and her team were so gracious and accommodating throughout the whole process. I have no complaints. Thank you Lavish for making my wedding a beautiful dream come true!

We cannot say enough great things about the Lavish Wedding Team, and especially Gabriela! From the…read moremoment we met Gabriela, it was clear that she wasn't just a wedding planner--she was someone deeply invested in making our wedding day a reflection of us as a couple. She took the time during our very first meeting to ask about our personal story--how we met, how my husband proposed, and what made our relationship unique. This was something no other planner had done, and it immediately made us feel like we were in the hands of someone who truly cared. She has become more than just a wedding planner, and is now one of our friends. Our wedding was a beautiful blend of two distinct cultures, and Lavish went above and beyond to ensure that every detail honored both of our traditions in a way that felt seamless and cohesive. Gabriela found creative ways to incorporate elements of each culture into the decor, ceremony, and reception, making our celebration not just special, but incredibly personal. Her thoughtful approach to merging these cultural elements was absolutely perfect, and we were so grateful for the care she took to ensure everything felt authentic and meaningful. On top of all that, the Lavish team was incredibly attentive to every last detail. There were a few last-minute challenges on the day of the wedding, and they handled them with such grace and professionalism that we didn't have to worry about a thing. If you're looking for a wedding planning team who will go above and beyond to make your day as special as it can be, look no further than Lavish.

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.

We did everything by email with Cassie in the beginning. We had a hard time choosing the food because the options were vast - like overwhelming almost. I finally chose "stir fry" because it was vegetarian and we also got a chicken option and some appetizers like salmon and charcuterie. The apps were delicious. The "stir fry" however was not. It was underwhelming to say the least. And it was so much food I felt like it was really thrown together. Soggy veggies. Limp ramen. I asked for pictures ahead of time so I could see what I was getting but nope they don't have pictures of their own food. Weird. The best part was Blanca who dropped off and picked up everything. She was really nice and helpful. Cassie the owner never reached out to confirm the party ahead of time and worse - didn't call to see how everything was afterward. This was over $1000 I spent on food for 24 people!!! I wish I had just gotten chipotle honestly. Pic is of the charcuterie that Blanca put together. People liked it and the mushroom purses too.

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.

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.
