After meeting Uyen for the first time last December, my fiance and I knew we had found our wedding coordinator. We were looking for someone who was organized, prepared, and responsive. Uyen has all those wonderful qualities and more. Even though we only hired Uyen to help us the week of the wedding, she helped us through the entire planning process from start to finish. We probably sent Uyen hundreds of emails and text messages over a 10-month period, and she always responded to each and every one of them within a few hours (sometimes within minutes). You can always count on Uyen to be there when you need help or advice.

We had a very small wedding (50 guests) a few weeks ago at Mastro's Steakhouse in Costa Mesa. Uyen took care of everything that day. I was surprisingly calm and relaxed all day. We wanted to have an intimate wedding with our closest family and friends, and with Uyen's help we were able to accomplish that. She was simply amazing!

Thank you, Uyen!

Uyen is an exceptional wedding planner with an eye for sophisticated and modern wedding details that will undoubtedly exceed your expectations. Our wedding was in July of 2009. Our event is still the talk of town amongst our friends and family. The day of the wedding Uyen's recommended vendors were timely, and most importantly, showed up with quality beyond our expectations.

Uyen and her team executed our wedding day flawlessly to the specification we dreamed up together. Our specific theme was French Chic. From the amazingly beautiful flowers to the sharp and sexy linens, no one left our event without saying "WOW".

Uyen has a customer focus that enables her to get the best out of each couples taste and budget. We would highly recommend Uyen as a full or partial wedding planner as her quality exceeds her price and the working relationship is extremely pleasant as well.

I hired Uyen for coordination services from start to finish and I have to say that she was awesome! She's so great to work with and really catered to our needs. She worked very hard to keep things within our budget, but the day of the wedding, everything looked like we had no budget!! She helped make our wedding day even better than either one of us imagined. Uyen is very detail-oriented and organized, which made the wedding planning process as stress-free as it could be.

After my first meeting with Uyen, I knew I had found my wedding coordinator.
Indian weddings are multiple days of mass confusion and ceremonies on top of ceremonies. I did a lot of research and interviews to meet a coordinator that I could click with—and I am so thankful that I met Uyen. She is an amazing coordinator handling everything perfectly and truly a master mind in putting our wedding together so beautifully.

All of our relatives from across the globe raved about her. There is no way that we could have planned such a flawless and beautiful event without Uyen by our side.

She was super organized and always prepared. She was very creative and always made the best suggestions. She asked potential questions and issues that I had not even considered. She responds to my all my endless emails quickly. She negotiated well and was very trust worthy. I cannot rave enough about her. I can make a HUGE list of all the ways that Uyen is amazing, but honestly, there are not enough words to describe her. She is not just a coordinator, she is a friend: someone who has your back, who helps you put everything together, someone who will be your partner in coordinating everything.

To be truthful, at the start, my fiancé refused to hire a coordinator because he thought it was a “waste of money”. I really had to twist his arm to cave in, but the first words he said to me as we left the wedding was: “Good call on hiring Uyen, best decision.” Ha ha. At least he learns quickly, “the wifey is always right!!”

Despite the hours planning and planning, there are always things that will come up on your day. Thankfully, with a competent coordinator like Uyen, you will never know about the behind-the-scenes drama and problems, and be able to focus on what is important—enjoying the day and cherishing the moment.

With this in mind, for any bride searching for a coordinator, my husband and I (and our families) highly recommend Uyen.

Thank you Uyen for everything!!

First, please let me begin by giving my zealous, unequivocal recommendation of Sassy Girl Weddings and Events! Hiring Sassy Girl Weddings and Events was the absolute best money we spent on our wedding!

We hired Sassy Girl Weddings and Events for full service wedding planning, design, and coordination in July of 2009. We spent a few weeks negotiating the terms of service with Uyen Nguyen (owner and designer of Sassy Girl Weddings and Events). Uyen was an amazing listener, always incorporating the items important to us. We felt secure in Uyen’s capable hands. In the months leading up to our wedding on May 24, 2009, Uyen was truly a blessing in our lives. As my husband and I were planning a multi-cultural, So. Cal wedding from No. Cal, Uyen was our eyes and ears – making excellent vendor recommendations, doing preliminary screening and vendor visits, and ensuring that all contracts were in good form (with appropriate price negotiation) before even presenting the contract to my husband and myself.

Uyen ensured that all of our wedding desires (both specific wishes and ‘conceptual’ wishes) were incorporated flawlessly into our wedding. She was able to execute all of these details perfectly as a result of (a) her ability to listen and ask necessary questions, (b) her amazingly prompt response time to inquiries (including late night e-mail musings about the ‘splash of red’ to be incorporated into the black and white theme and the Armenian text to be added to the wedding invitations and stationary), (c) her utter professionalism and great relationships (and mutual respect) with her suggested vendors, (d) her unending patience (but also no B.S. attitude), (e) her willingness to go that extra mile for her clients, (f) her easy-going, humorous, positive, and upbeat personality, (g) her keen eye for detail and amazing organizational capabilities, (h) her natural leader instincts, (i) her amazing capabilities and aptitude as a designer, and (j) her savvy business skills and intelligence. I will openly admit that I can be a difficult person to work with at times and never once did Uyen respond to me in a negative manner.

Uyen was truly grace under fire for the rehearsal and day-of coordination. Many people came to me after the wedding and spoke to me about how wonderful she was in ensuring the proper flow of everything. Also, family and friends commented on her cool composure and ability to deal with a few ‘sticky’ situations in a professional, appropriate manner. Interestingly, neither myself (as the bride) nor my husband knew any of these behind-the-scenes “issues” were occurring until after the fact, as Uyen took great care to not burden or stress us (or allow anyone else – friend, family, or vendor to do so)!

Sassy Girl Weddings and Events made all aspects of our wedding truly unique, memorable, and flawless – from the rehearsal dinner to the post-wedding clean-up….everything went off even better and more amazingly than my husband and I had ever dreamed possible. Thanks to Sassy Girl Weddings and Events we truly had an amazing, unique, memorable, fairytale wedding! In fact, one recently engaged woman at our wedding said that nobody who had attended our wedding would be allowed to come to her wedding as nobody’s wedding could never possibly live up to what Uyen had put together!

Thanks Uyen!!!

We are both organized but we knew that we needed someone to help with the wedding. After speaking to three different vendors we realized there was way more detail then we thought and we needed more help. Due to our tight budget we hired Uyen for only a week of service. However, she went beyond that by helping us along the way, reviewing our contracts, recommending vendors and making sure we were on schedule. The day of our wedding was smooth and easy. Everyone commented on what a calm bride I was, but in reality, it was because we had Uyen on our side and we didn’t have to worry about anything. There wasn’t any point in the day we had to ask about anything, we just went with it. Our friends were so impressed by her work and her utility belt; they started referring to her as the Wedding Woman.

I adore Uyen! At first, everyone thought I was spending unnecessary $ hiring a wedding coordinator. However, after the success I had at my wedding, everyone ate their words! Uyen saved me from many stressful situations. She recommended all the right vendors to me. I would highly recommend her to future brides. Big HUGS to you UYEN!

Uyen is such a great person to have as an event coordinator. We could not have done this with out her. We booked Uyen one year before our wedding (which helped so much). Uyen is so easily going and fun to be around. Her ideas helped to make our wedding day so special. I received so many compliments from friends and family about how beautiful everything was and how Uyen did a fabulous job. Uyen helped to make our wedding day very magical. Thanks so much for all your hard work and help. We love Uyen.

Uyen was fabulous day of coordinator. Hiring her as my coordinator was probably one of the best decisions I made in wedding planning. Uyen is extremely detail oriented, organized, and hard working. She was also very prompt in her responses in answering the many questions I had leading up to the day. She took care of all the big and little things that came up on the wedding day which left me stress free and able to enjoy my wedding day to the max!

I booked Uyen shortly before my wedding as I was getting nervous with all I still had to do. I had a pretty strict budget by this time and Uyen worked with me to get me what she could for the price. She ended up doing just "day of" coordinating (which definitely worked out to more than just the day of) and only the reception (since I had a coordinator at the ceremony site). What can I say. She's a pro! She was asking all sorts of questions I never thought to ask my vendors and she was not only the sweetest and thoughtful thing ever, but she was assertive when she needed to be. My only wish was that I had hired her to oversee the entire thing. I had so many things go wrong (most out of my control) that I really needed someone there to tell the florist that the set up was wrong, or the flowers on the cake were wrong, or they had forgotten to hang the lights and swag, or to provide new directions to my guests when there was a road closure between our church and reception site...etc. It would've been great if we had worked together on the whole thing so she could've known about these things, but from the little time we had before the wedding to get to know each other and for her to get to know my wedding, she did an AMAZING job. The reception site was gorgeous and with so much going on she executed the night beautifully. I will definitely be hiring her for the next big function I throw...and will not spare any expense next time!
