Honestly I don't know how to describe how grateful I am for Joyce and her team, but I will try my best.

My now husband and I attended a friend's wedding in May 2018 which Joyce planned. The wedding was beautiful, organized and the couple seemed relaxed the entire evening. I did not know of Joyce's name until the couple posted their wedding photos on Facebook with a special thanks to their planner - Joyce. This led me to Joyce's business page. I was so impressed with all of her clients' glowing reviews which were all 5 stars. I then decided to reach out to Joyce to learn more about her services when at the time I was not even engaged. I then spoke to the couple whom married in May directly to hear from them, and both of them LOVED Joyce and her work. Knowing this assurance from someone I know, we decided to reach out to Joyce for an initial planning after we got engaged.

At the initial meeting, Joyce asked about our vision of the wedding, our wants, and needs. With a big family and church guest list, we intended to have 300 guests; however, our budget was quite low for this huge number. I was nervous about Joyce's reaction when she heard of the budget with this number of guests and whether we were being unrealistic. Joyce kept a calm composure although I knew the budget surprised her, never once she made us feel small. This was when I realized I wanted to hire her.

Upon the initial meeting, we decided to hire Joyce to be our planner. Before we even signed the contract, Joyce had already started to look for venues which would have the elements we wanted and could hold our guests number. Within the first week, Joyce already contacted multiple venues, compared their costs and services, so we could start to narrow down the list to start visiting. She was fast with the process. After 2 weeks, we were already visiting different venues, and of course at each one, my husband and I were already so trusting in Joyce that we let her ask all of the questions. She gave us a timeline to finish the tasks and reminded us along the way when the due date was getting close for each task. She broke down big tasks to smaller chunks, so we wouldn't feel overwhelmed with the process. She was always ahead, contacting and keeping in touch with photographers, makeup artist, florist, DJ, venue, etc. We felt at ease because we knew Joyce had covered all bases.

She was with us every step of the planning process, every vendor visit, and every email to vendors. As highly efficient as Joyce was, we never felt pressured by her with time or making decisions. She gave suggestions but always respected our decisions. Our decisions were based on her suggestions anyway because we trusted if she suggested something, it would be the best way to do it. She was always available through phone calls, texts, Facebook messages, etc. even at the latest hour of the night.

For 11 months of planning, I saw her as a friend. She was caring, kind, and always ready to do whatever it took to help take off the stress off my shoulder. The evening before our rehearsal, Joyce called me to ask if everything was okay and if there was anything that worried me. She reassured that she would take care of anything that rise up. I was so touched by her care, and I will always remember this special touch.

On the wedding day, everything ran smoothly with no hiccups. Guests couldn't stop raving about how beautiful and seamless the wedding was. My mom got phone calls at 6am the morning after the wedding because guests couldn't wait to tell her how much they loved the wedding!

All of the vendors love Joyce, and this speaks so much volume. The photographer whom has worked with Joyce in the past even mentioned to me, "I love it when Joyce is planning the wedding that I'm shooting for. She makes my life so much easier". The makeup artist told me Joyce is the best planner she has ever worked with even with the countless of weddings she has worked for. I couldn't help but smile knowing the best decision I made with this wedding (beside marrying my best friend) was to hire Joyce and her team to plan and run the show.

To any bride/groom who is considering a wedding planner: please allow yourself to get help from the best of the best.

Joyce, Phong and I will forever be grateful for you and your work for the past 11 months. We love you!

We first heard about Joyce from my husband’s brother’s wedding and were impressed by how punctual and meticulous she was. So when it came around for us to plan a wedding, we just knew that we needed to contact Joyce and she was absolutely incredible as our wedding planner. Throughout the planning process, she made sure that we followed the custom timeline schedule that she created for us. Each of her vendor suggestions were amazing and matched exactly what we were looking for. I really can’t stress enough how great Joyce is, she is always on top of everything and extremely responsive to our questions.
To be honest, we didn’t have a concrete vision for our wedding when we first reached out to her, at the time our wedding vision board was a random mixup of ideas and she helped us immensely to further develop our initial idea and make all the different components cohesive. Whenever we were stuck on decisions, she’d help us walk through the different options and weigh in with her thoughts when we requested them.
Something invaluable I think Joyce has is her ability to adapt. Close to the RSVP due date, we realized that our wedding guest count was going to be significantly larger than what we had initially planned for and she immediately started coordinating with all of our vendors to accommodate for this change.
From start to finish, she made sure our day was perfect, handling every detail flawlessly. If you're looking for a planner who will make your big day smooth and stress-free, we highly recommend Joyce!

We are grateful to have Joyce as our planner. The communication is very fast and clear. She provides details about all the vendors and venues. Our wedding was as perfect as we had imagined. It could not have been done without her help.

We had an ambitious vision for our wedding with incorporating 3 ceremonies of different traditions: Korean, Hindu and Western. We knew we wanted a wedding planner with experience with multicultural weddings. Joyce was the perfect person for the task! She was incredibly knowledgable, very detail-oriented, responsive and advocated for us throughout the whole process. Also importantly, she truly kept to our goal budget, which is so important when there are always surprise costs involved with weddings. We optimized for our budget in every way, thanks to Joyce's ideas and recommendations. She will also keep it very real and tell you when something doesn't work, which we appreciated. She was recommended to us by a friend and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding planner!!!

The planning process was very daunting, but Joyce's expertise and professionalism provided us with a sense of ease and assurance, especially during those stressful final weeks of preparation.
She and her team are extremely organized and timely -- they kept us on schedule for every segment of the night. (We did not hire photographers for the entire night, so Joyce stuck to our timeline to make sure all the critical moments were captured.)
Joyce also connected us with her florist and DJ contacts, and we loved working with them both. It's been over a week since the wedding, we are still getting compliments for the floral arrangements!

Joyce, thank you for always looking out for our best interest. Our wedding felt like a dream come true because of you!

We had the absolute pleasure of having Joyce to be our wedding planner, and I think it was one of the best decision we’ve made for our wedding! Before the wedding, Joyce was incredibly responsive and always sent timely reminders to us on the pending tasks. On our wedding day, she was very professional and organized, and coordinated with every vendor and managed time very well, which made our wedding day perfect. No details was too small, and having Joyce made us feel confident that everything was under control. Highly recommended!

Joyce was so thorough and organized with helping to support us through our wedding! She stayed on top of everything to make sure we had such a smooth day. We couldn’t have pulled off a 2 day wedding event in 4 months without her help and guidance!!

Joyce is extremely patient, responds promptly, and pays attention to many small details of the wedding (seating arrangement, hosting, staffing, reusing flowers to reduce costs, etc). She adjusts according to the actual situation and budget, and controls every detail of the process perfectly. We had a 45 people church wedding, and she creatively suggested using the lawn outside the church for an outdoor afternoon tea reception, which turned out to be super successful. The flowers and decorations were beautiful, and the vendors she recommended were of the highest quality. The setup and cleanup were also very efficient. Feel free to share your ideas with her and ask any questions, as she will try her best to accommodate and design based on your preferences. You won't regret it!

Joyce is very pleasant to work with, she’s professional, experienced and quick on responses! We worked with her on our wedding for a few months - great experience! We highly recommend Joyce if you’re planning for your big day!!

We are very grateful to Joyce for the meticulous preparation of our wedding!! Wonderful process and service!! We are soooo enjoyable to our wedding ceremony! Joyce is an excellent wedding planner, and she gave us many useful and efficient suggestions. That's really helpful to us!!
