Love the EY team!

Where do I begin? Crystal and I first connected in December of 2021. I was so nervous in beginning the wedding planning process and knew I needed someone who was going to help me in CA while I lived out in Ohio. During our initial call, she made me feel so comfortable and confident that she would be the best professional to get the job done!

We've basically been in constant contact for the past two years. My now husband and I booked her and her team for full service planning. As a Type A bride, and someone who is incredibly picky, I'm so glad that I had Crystal by my side! Crystal did an amazing job in helping us find and narrow down / contact vendors (venue, photographers, our live musician, florals, dj/mc, linens, etc.. literally everything!), attend meetings, keep track of our budget, think about all of the things we never knew were important for weddings (like insurance lol), and she did an excellent job as my acting therapist for the immense stress from cross country wedding planning. She did way more than that, but it's hard to remember everything over our long wedding planning process!!

A lot of people mention how calming Crystal's demeanor is during this whole process. If she's ever stressed, you literally cannot tell. Just being able to chat with her or text her was so helpful and comforting! If there was ever a problem, she fixed it, or proposed solutions that would fix it.

Our actual wedding day went perfectly. She and her team did a wonderful job coordinating the event (all 180+ guests) and handling all things if they came up (idk if anything did, because she was on it the entire time). We received so many raving comments from our bridal party and guests who complimented how well run our event was!!

We also utilized Crystal's dance lessons - SO helpful for our first dance! She's a great teacher and was able to teach us plenty of fun choreography, despite our two left feet.

Lastly, we booked her team for their Photo Booth services. The Photo Booth was a hit all night, the prop table was always well organized, the photos came out with perfectly clear quality, and the photos were quick to print! We loved how we could customize our photo booth print outs during the planning process.

Overall, I highly, highly recommend Crystal and her team for all of your planning needs. She's truly a professional in the industry and knows what she's doing! Thank you so much Crystal and the Exceptionally Yours team for all of your assistance in the past two years! I'll miss talking to you on the daily lol.

Ease of mind

Crystal was great. She was thorough , professional and timely. She was on top of things the entire process and our wedding day was a breeze. She eased the mind and items on the plate of my bride. We wouldn’t hesitate to refer her to anyone in the future. It was a pleasure working with her and her team.

Amazing, smooth, organized, and thoughtful

I was lucky enough to meet Crystal at a wedding show in Downey. She was so professional and easy going, she definitely helped me maintain my sanity throughout the planning process (VERY quick to respond to all communication). Our day went so smooth and stuck to our tight timeline!!! Her planning tools are so easy to use and VERY ORGANIZED! I can’t thank her and the team enough for their help.Crystal made sure that my husband and I were taken care of throughout the day. She goes the extra mile for her couples, example: slight hiccup with song playlists where my cake song was wrong (I was going to let it go) but Crystal had the DJ fix it and that meant THE WORLD to me, it told me how much she cared to make our day as perfect as it could be.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
