In the early stages of wedding planning, I hoped to find a wedding planner who could take on planning a traditional Vietnamese wedding ceremony and traditional wedding ceremony. On top of that, it was a destination wedding too. I considered Karen after reading raving reviews on WeddingWire. Since the very first time I spoke to her on the phone, I actually felt my stress melt away. I was so scattered in wedding planning because it was overwhelming not knowing where to start. All I had was the venue and I wasn’t sure how to proceed. She immediately had a calming presence as she reassured me, and I knew she was the one! Throughout the months of planning, she was always one text, email, or phone call away with any questions that I had. I wouldn’t have made it through without her wisdom, advice, and pep talks! She is more than just a wedding planner - she’s a friend who always has your back. Karen is organized, meticulous, patient, and always makes sure that everything turns out the way you imagine it. In fact, everything turned out even better than we could have ever imagined it! Any hiccup that we encountered along the way was handled so smoothly. She immediately had solutions and backup plans. Nothing can get in her way! Her vendor recommendations were exactly in line with our visions and she executed the entire day flawlessly. She was there for 15-16 hours on our wedding day from when we were getting ready and she was the last person to leave the reception. While we were dancing and greeting our guests at the reception, Karen was working behind the scenes and personally gathering decor, cake, and our belongings to have them ready for us to take home. We kept on admiring how beautiful the decor was throughout the day and marveling at our vendors’ work. We knew that it wouldn’t have been possible without Karen’s wedding planning and day-of coordination. There is a lot of behind the scenes work months out from the wedding spanning to the actual big day and we appreciate all of her hard work and attention to detail. Karen genuinely cares about your happiness and will work to make your dreams come true. My husband said that throughout the day, he noticed her genuinely enjoying the wedding while working and how he had never seen that before. If you’re looking for a wedding planner, look no further because I promise you that Karen is the one! ❤️

Karen helped make our destination wedding perfect. From a type A person/bride, it was a huge peace of mind to know our planner was taking care of the behind the scenes with us being so far away. She is such a professional and has great knowledge of the PR wedding scene. Our wedding planning experience would not have been the same without her.

Karen is truly a master of her craft! We are both from PR but living in Texas, and even from afar we felt an immediate connection and trust in Karen from our first meeting. Our wedding planning was smooth as she is so kind, respectful, took her time with every single question we might have had through a year of planning, and gave us the best recommendations for all of our needs. She thought of every detail, even the ones we didn’t think about, and guided us through every step to make our dream wedding come true, always taking into account our feedback and vision.

Our wedding day was truly a perfect day, and we were both able to enjoy every single minute because she and her amazing team were on top of even the most minimal detail. Everything in the timeline ran exactly on time and exactly as we wanted. If there was a change or pivot, she took care of it without hesitation, and mostly without us even realizing it. She was so organized, and made us feel like top priority at every moment. Her connection with all the vendors was evident, and all of them were so happy when, upon hiring, we let them know that Karen was our planner. We could tell they felt confident that everything would be great because she was in charge, which in turn made us even more confident about our decision.

Karen was by far the best investment we did for our wedding, she made our fairy-tale dreams come true and most importantly, because peace of mind on one of the most important days of our lives was priceless. She had our back every step of the way and will forever hold a dear place in our hearts. We don’t have enough words to thank her!
