They created such a special memories for us and our family
We rented hanboks for myself, the groom, and several family members. The rental process was easy, and they were very communicative. It was fun to go to their shop and try on the different combinations, and it was very easy for family members to get their measurements done who were far away. The pick-up and return process was seamless, and being able to wear hanbok was so memorable for me and my family. This is such a special shop, and I couldn't recommend them enough! -

Amazing experience for Korean-American paebaek
We worked with Jessica and Sarah from BDK for our paebaek ceremony during our NYC wedding, and it was a highlight of our day.
It was such a wonderful celebration of culture and family, and Jessica and Sarah did an incredible job helping us navigate the ceremony and making it fun and exciting for our 50+ guests, who were a mix of Koreans and non-Koreans.
Jessica was incredibly communicative, and flexible with several changes we had to make in the lead-up to the wedding, and made the entire planning process feel seamless. -

Amazing paebaek/hanbok vendor!!
We rented my mom's hanbok from BDK Mint and also worked with them for our paebaek. My mom's hanbok was absolutely stunning - it matched our wedding theme and fit my mom beautifully. They also shipped the hanbok a few days in advance of the wedding to ensure it got in on time and made the return easy for us. The paebaek was one of the most memorable parts of our wedding day - it was so meaningful for my family to incorporate such a special Korean tradition to our wedding and the guests absolutely loved it. Jessica's ability to bring the crowd together made it that much more fun!! We loved working with them and would highly recommend for people looking to rent/buy hanboks and/or have a paebaek ceremony. -

Enjoyable, easy, seamless experience!
We loved working with BDK Mint and are so happy we hired them to facilitate our paebaek ceremony! They were easy to communicate with over email, came fully prepared and set up a beautiful space as well as facilitated the entire ceremony. It was a special experience and we're so happy to have worked with them! We would highly recommend this company to any couple looking to incorporate a paebaek ceremony into their wedding. -

Professional, organized, and fun!
It was such a joy to work with Jessica and her team to incorporate a Paebaek ceremony into our wedding! It was hands down one of the most fun and memorable parts of the whole night, our guests could not stop talking about it. From the start, Jessica was incredibly organized and responsive, helping to alleviate any concerns and anxieties we had about the ceremony. She and her staff were incredibly prepared and professional, we even ran ahead of schedule thanks to their help getting into our Paebaek outfits. Jessica is a phenomenal MC and the ceremony was so engaging and fun for the entire audience. Again, it was one of the highlights of our wedding, and we cannot say enough good things about BDK MINT! -

A cherished memory we won't forget!
We were thrilled to work with BDK Mint to organize our Paebaek for our wedding day! They were incredibly responsive and communicative throughout the process and were wonderful from start to finish. From the day of our fitting for our hanboks with Jeoung to the actual ceremony itself, we could not have asked for more. On the day of our wedding, Jessica and Sylvia were unforgettable hosts, both kind and energetic, putting any nerves we may have had to ease. They have perfected the art of running a paebaek, maintaining the importance of the traditions while also modernizing the experience. A large number of our guests were not Korean, however, they made sure to explain the meaning behind each custom and engage everyone who was present. On a day full of so many beautiful moments, our paebaek was one of the most memorable. We are immeasurably grateful to the entire team at BDK Mint. -

Incredible Paebaek Service
I had the pleasure of working with Jessica as a vendor for a Paebaek ceremony for a wedding that I DJ'd; she was the loveliest person to work with! She was professional, communicative, friendly, and created a beautiful ambiance for the Paebaek ceremony. This was my first time providing audio for such a ceremony and I can't thank Jessica enough for ensuring that I was comfortable every step of the way!
The couple and the guests enjoyed the service and even gave a standing ovation by the end of it. I hope to have the pleasure of working with Jessica again in the future! -

A Once-in-a-Lifetime Experience we LOVED
We had the honor of working with BDK Mint for our wedding this past Friday (9/20/24).
Not only did they provide gorgeous rental hanboks for my grandmothers, they helped us pull off the full Paebaek ceremony in a very tight schedule and VERY last minute--these superstars got all our info/details, reached out to the venue and coordinated with the DJ and had it all ready to go in a 2 week timeline! (original plan to borrow the Paebaek hanboks fell through).
Jessica and Sylvia were our MC and attendants and they were not only super personable and helpful but also very charismatic, flexible and generous with their time.
From setup of the set, prepping us (even provided multiple hanbok options) and through the ceremony itself, they took authority over the process to make my husband and I feel comfortable and prepared for what was to come. They made all necessary announcements to the party and even went so far as to assess the setup of our venue and strategize the most effective way to make an impactful impression to garner attention and interest to attend an otherwise optional event--so much so, that our ENTIRE wedding party ended up coming in to watch, leaving the venue staff to think our cocktail hour had ended (which it hadn't)
Jessica did a fantastic job MCing the event, we had a multi-cultural crowd and she described everything so clearly and beautifully--even though I myself am Korean, I learned a lot!
As a bonus, the energy of the Paebaek really primed our guests and got them in the right vibe for the rest of the night!
Most of our non-Korean guests came up to say that watching the Paebaek was one of the coolest things they've ever witnessed and left loving and respecting the Korean tradition more than than they did beforehand (or at the very least learned about it).
Sylvia was equally amazing through the entire process and especially at preparing my husband and I with what queues she'd provide us and any last minute instructions/tips before heading out.
Both were so helpful, kind and fun to be around that even in the hustle and bustle of things, we felt completely taken care of by them and at ease! They even made sure that we were always photo-ready and patiently waited for us to take additional photos after the ceremony ended, never once making us feel rushed.
If you are considering including the Paebaek service in your wedding, we say, you absolutely should and it HAS to be with BDKMint. Beautiful Hanboks, Beautiful Ceremony, Beautiful Service overall, it was well worth it and we'll have this memory for ever.
10,000 out of 10 recommend!
Thank you again Jessica and Sylvia for this once-in-a-lifetime experience -

Fun paebaek for our multicultural wedding
My husband and I wanted to incorporate both of our cultures into our wedding celebrations, so we hired BDK Mint to organize our paebaek. Even though we were based in San Francisco, the process with Jessica, who we worked with from BDK, was smooth and stress-free. She explained the ceremony to us, gave us tips on how many family members to include, and gave us all the information we needed to feel confident that our ceremony would go without a hitch on the day.
For the ceremony, she and her helper brought a couple options for the ceremony outfits for me, helped dress us both, and guided us throughout the whole process. She was also a great emcee and really engaged the crowd. It was a hit with our guests! Thank you very much for an amazing celebration!
We highly recommend BDK :) -

Thank you so much!!
BDK Mint and Jessica were great throughout the process of planning our ceremony and paebaek. We liked the different tiers we could choose from. From start to end, they were so responsive and worked with us to make sure each detail was what we wanted. On the day-of, we felt very taken care of by Jessica and Sylvia, and the quality of everything they brought was also great; Jessica was also an incredible emcee. Thank you! -

The best in the business - do not go anywhere else
You can easily get a hanbok on etsy or amazon for rent or to purchase. You cannot get Jessica or her mother from either service. BDK Mint is hands down the best in the business for all your hanbok and Korean household staple needs. Depending on the occasion, they tailor all your requests with such grace and are able to share your vision. Your ideas are not only accommodated, but they are also enhanced and reflected with all the nuance and subtleties of your distinct personality. I have purchased and rented exclusively with BDK for over 10 years for 4 different occasions and I will never go elsewhere. The most recent occasion was a family wedding for my cousin where many family members borrowed hanboks from fellow church members or rented from Etsy. BDK Hanboks blew those hanboks out the water – they were by far superior in quality, style, and not to mention stunning. BDK Hanboks were reminiscent of royalty, class, and a higher standard. Don’t go anywhere else, you will regret it if you have an event where you want to be memorable and you want to feel beautiful -

Fun, memorable, smooth!
BDK Mint has done the Paebaek ceremony for two of my husband's cousin's weddings and their ceremony has only gotten better and better. I had a ton of guests comment to me after about moments that happened during the Paebaek and the experience was full of energy and joy. Thank you, Jessica and Sylvia, for a truly memorable and smooth experience! -

The perfect Paebaek (korean tea ceremony/wedding) and Hanbok!
Jessica and Jeoung were wonderful! My wife and I went to BDK Mint to help us plan our paebaek, and make us some custom hanbok. The result was incredible. Jessica planned the whole ceremony, walked us through it, helped us prepare (shout out to Sylvia too!), setup a wonderful setting and MC'ed the whole ceremony to keep all my non-korean side of the family understanding what was going on.
The custom hanboks made by Jeoung were amazing, and fantastic craftsmanship. While I thought I looked pretty damn good, my wife looked stunning. The whole process of helping pick the design and fabrics and everything was a great time, and they were very patient with us and make all the time needed to help us get the perfect outfits for the perfect day! -

Beautiful and fun!
I’m going to have 17 kids!! Just kidding, but that’s how many dates and chestnuts we caught. My husband and I recently celebrated our belated wedding with our friends and family. We did paebaek and got custom Hanbok made though BDK.
Our paebaek ceremony was so fun and everyone enjoyed it. The decor they used and the outfits were all gorgeous. The team are very responsive, on time, and everything went off without a hitch. Jessica is completely fluent in both English and Korean so everyone could enjoy the event.
The custom hanboks were incredible! We had several made - at least one for each member of our family. All were gorgeous and finished on time. The quality of the fabric and construction are impressive. I am honored to have such beautiful pieces to hold onto. I look forward to wearing my Hanbok again when we have the first of our many children.
Thank you for making our event so memorable! -

This company was amazing and professional from start to finish. Jessica answered any and all questions I had about the Paebaek/Pyebaek ceremony and rental. Her and her assistant were right on time the day of the wedding to set up. They guided us every step of the way. Being bilingual was a plus for our American/English speaking guests. Absolutely loved working with them! -

We loved working with Jessica and her team!! Throughout the entire planning process and during the day of our wedding, they were so attentive, communicative, and professional. Our guests raved about the entire ceremony and they brought such great warm energy and entertainment! For many of the guests who were unfamiliar with what the ceremony entailed, they provided descriptive commentary and helped guide us and our families and friends throughout. They were super easy and accommodating to work with, and would highly recommend them! Thanks again!!! -

Best Paebaek Experience!
Literally we would recommend BDK Mint to everyone! They are so organized, helpful, and super responsive. They answered all of our questions and made sure that everything went smoothly and seamlessly. From setting up for the ceremony to helping both of us put on the traditional garments. Everyone raved about the Paebaek Ceremony with BDK Mint! They even did such an amazing job explaining everyone in both Korean and English. It was so much fun and such an overall amazing experience. Even my husband who wasn't sure about having the ceremony had a blast! Cannot thank them enough for everything!! -

Smoothest planning experience of my life
I got married last April in a ceremony that BDK Mint helped to put together combining traditional ceremony elements with the paebaek itself, and could not have had a better experience. My cousin had used BDK Mint when he got married so I'd experienced what it was like as a guest, and knew that they provided a flawless experience for guests that was guided, informative, exciting, and fun, but now I had a chance to be on the other side of planning and can't say enough about their planning powers. Jessica was clear, communicative, supportive, creative, detail oriented, and so clearly on top of her shit. She had everything pegged down to the last detail. It was such a relief to know that she was the one putting things together because I never had a single doubt that she knew what she was doing and was going to help us have a beautiful, unforgettable day. I also really appreciated the fact that my partner is Indian, and she was really thoughtful, kind, and flexible to make the experience less anxious and more inclusive for him and his family (eg suggesting that my family go first during the paebaek, even though traditionally the groom's family goes first). I cannot recommend Jessica & BDK Mint enough! -

Excellent choice for Korean-American ceremony!
Jessica & her team at BDK Mint were so responsive, easy to work with, and accommodating. We wanted to have a Korean American ceremony blending both cultures, and they knew exactly what to do. They made sure both families and guests from both cultures felt comfortable and fully understood the ceremony. They traveled to Virginia and were punctual, professional and made us feel so comfortable with the paebaek ceremony. Our guests RAVED about the paebaek -- the ones who traveled from Korea were thrilled to see an Americanized version, and the ones who were from the U.S. were newly introduced to paebaek. I highly recommend! -

The BEST Wedding Planner+Helper!
Jessica went above and beyond our expectations and her duties, you will not be disappointed at all and your wedding day will flow by with ease. She took care of the whole bridal party and the event all at once and I cannot thank her and her associates enough. If I were to ever had a wedding again (hope not LOL) or if any of my friends need a wedding planner she would definitely be my go-to/recommended person. She has such a sweet personality and energy she will make you feel less stressed out during your wedding planning process 10/10. Thank you so much again ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ -

Such an Amazing Team!
BDK was recommended to us by a friend and after looking into their work and their services we decided to move forward with them for our Pyebaek. They were so responsive and fantastic to work with throughout the entire planning process. The Pyebaek itself operated smoothly and the BDK team made it fun for us and our families. Would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to do a Pyebaek. -

best paebaek service
Jessica and Sylvia were amazing! We had our Paebaek ceremony right at the start of our reception, they did a wonderful job at setting everything up. Everything was done perfectly!
Jessica was great at emceeing; translating between Korean and English for the non-Korean crowd. The whole ceremony was lively and fun!! They set-up and took apart all the decor/backdrop in what seemed like under 5 minutes, they know exactly what they're doing!

Best Wedding Vendor
BDK Mint is amazing! From the start, Jessica was quick and thoughtful in her communication and always happy to take extra time to explain or answer any questions I had. I bought a custom hanbok from BDK mint and we also did a Paebaek ceremony. We received sooo many compliments about the ceremony and many of our guests highlighted it as one of the best moments of the night. Additionally, my dress was amazing and the small details and quality were top-notch.
I would not hesitate to book them again and again and I am already trying to find another event that I can use as an excuse to wear my dress again!-

Absolutely love!
Wonderful experience!! We got hanbok rentals for me and my mom along with the full paebaek package. Everyone commented on how fun the ceremony was and were so impressed by how professional and funny Jessica was. Both English and Korean speakers felt at home in the ceremony! My in laws are American but they felt like they knew what to do at all times bc the MC-ing was so seamless.
And the hanbok! Both my mom and I were so pleased with her hanbok. I had gone in to get mine fitted and altered but we had to do my moms all remotely. I was nervous but the end result was perfect! My mom looked so cute and beautiful. Everyone was commenting on how beautiful she looked.
If you are looking for a paebaek ceremony please go with bdk mint. Loved the experience! And if you’re on the fence about doing a paebaek — I say go for it!!! Seriously. It was so fun and different and I loved learning more myself about the ceremony. Parents on both sides really loved being able to say some pearls of wisdom and it was just a lovely event.
Oh and one last thing. Their attention to detail is INSANE. During photos they were constantly on hand to help us adjust the headpieces, the apron, etc. They were constantly helping us adjust things that even we didn’t notice! -

Product and Then Sime
We ordered a custom hanbok though BDK Mint and had nothing but top-notch service each step of the way. Even the virtual consultation ( due to our living two states away) and measurement session was seamless with the staff’s guidance. BDK Mint was extremely helpful in ensuring I, father of the groom, was able to match my wife’s hanbok for a unified look. We will direct all of our hanbok needs for us, our children and grandchildren to BDK Mint. -

One of the best wedding decisions
We hired BDK Mint to host our Paebaek ceremony in May of 2021. The team at BDK Mint was such a joy to work with, from the very beginning of planning in January 2020, till the end of the event, pandemic and all. Unlike many of my other vendors, they had an immediate plan in place for how they would adapt their ceremony to make everyone feel safe. As a bride, I felt so much support and like a weight was taken off of me because I was able to trust in them and rely on them to pull off the event and guide me in the decisions we had to make. While the Paebaek was originally supposed to be a part of our main wedding ceremony in August 2020, we found out my husband's Korean family would not be able to attend due to the pandemic. Jessica and her team were very flexible in allowing us to postpone the Paebaek for a future date TBD. When my in-laws were finally able to commit to traveling dates, within a month of the event, we got a date on the calendar. Communications leading up to the event couldn't have been smoother. On the day of the event, Jessica and Sylvia far exceeded our expectations. Their set up of the backdrop, food, ceremonial robes, was exquisite, with great attention to detail. I was pregnant at the time and they were so helpful in physically assisting me, seamlessly adapting ceremony, and guiding me as a non-Korean bride. They communicated beautifully with my Korean in-laws -- better than my husband can -- and skillfully emceed a bilingual, bicultural ceremony that bridged generations. My friend commented that it was the most beautiful wedding ceremony she has ever seen, particularly in how it incorporates the participation of the parents, siblings, and family friends and weaves in the traditional elements of Korean culture with fun, joy, humor and lightheartedness. The special Korean fruits and cakes were high-quality and so delicious. In spite of working hard in the heat, Jessica and Sylvia remained professional and cheerful all throughout the day. My in-laws loved them and I'm sure they felt more comfortable that day because of Jessica and Sylvia's efforts. Deciding to have the Paebaek in spite of the added complexities and costs to weddings during the pandemic was one of the best decisions we made. We are grateful for the lifetime of memories we will have from this event and look forward to continuing to visit and work with BDK Mint. -

Amazing!!!
My husband and I had Paebaek ceremony with BDK Mint and they were so easy to work with and provided us fun experience! We made Paebaek public to our guests during reception and everyone LOVED and enjoyed seeing that!! Our friends who are getting married next year said they’re considering to have Paebaek ceremony themselves because it was so enjoyable. Communication was so prompt and smooth, they were very organized and professional, so definitely I would recommend as they would make your wedding planning lives much much better! -

Excellent, Wonderful, Amazing, Beautiful, etc!
Jessica and Sylvia have been absolutely wonderful from day one. We hired bdkmint and Jessica has been so amazing with communication, support, planning, any changes we had and were very friendly! We had our paebaek at our apartment for a small ceremony and it was so fun and comfortable and so precious! We actually had our paebaek for our second wedding anniversary but it felt so special nonetheless. They handled everything and we felt so at ease. They felt like family when they needed to be and were very professional when they needed to be. They were able to work well with the other vendors and were very knowledgable in helping everyone work in unison for smooth ceremony! It was absolutely perfect!! I definitely recommend bdkmint to everyone!! -

Exceptional quality and service!
I can’t say enough about my amazing experience at BDKmint! If you’re in the market for a hanbok to purchase or rent, look no further! I decided super last minute that I wanted to wear a hanbok for my wedding portraits, and was panicking about finding something in time for our photoshoot back in April. Jess and her mom scheduled me for a fitting right away, and were both so patient with me as I tried on tons of different color combinations and customized silk embroidered add-ons to create the perfect dress to match my cherry blossom vision! I was worried the rental color and design options would be somewhat limited, as it wasn’t a custom order and I only gave them one week’s notice, but they worked their MAGIC! Jess and her mom were super attentive during the appointment, pulled out all the stops, and the final product was a dream come true! Not only are their hanboks reasonably priced compared to what I’ve seen back home in NY and NJ, but the quality is fantastic and the customer service is unparalleled. Jess in particular was incredibly communicative and helpful—I reached out to inquire about any florist recommendations she might have, and she sent over a list the same day! Truly an exceptional experience start to finish. Thank you BDKMint!-

Such a kind, effortless and professional experience!
I had heard about BDK Mint through many friends and have seen their work (paebaek) with my own eyes at a few weddings. So of course, they were the only hanbok vendor that I checked out for my wedding!
Jessica was very professional since day one! She was very prompt with answering my many questions/emails and also very patient with explaining the process of renting!
There were many options of hanboks for my mom to rent. She tried a few on and made an easy decision with her specific customizations (designs on the cuffs and collar, for example) pretty quickly.
Renting her custom hanbok was $300 with a pickup on Friday (hanbok was ready in time!) and drop-off on Sunday. Glad that BDK's location is close or else I don't know how I would've returned it in time. $300 seems a little high, but it's not unheard of when it comes to hanboks.
I can see why hanboks cost a lot though because they are made so intricately with lots of care! I would 100% recommend BDK Mint for all future brides! -

Best experience ever!
Jessica was super responsive from beginning to end. We had to postpone our wedding date twice and BDK was super accommodating and understanding about our situation. On the day of Paebaek, BDK showed up early, was so friendly and easy to work with. Paebaek was our favorite part of the wedding and everyone keeps talking about it!
We also got our Hanboks made by BDK and they are truly luxurious and beautiful.
We give BDK a 10 our of 10 for quality, professionalism and friendliness! Love them so much!! -

Loved BDK!
BDK mint is superb at what they do. I was excited to have a paebaek ceremony for my wedding ever since I was a little girl and was so excited to work with bdk. We designed beautiful hanboks for both the groom and myself and I was glad to pick out our own colors and patterns. their paebaek service though was amazing. Jessica was great at staying in touch with us as we were planning our wedding and really set up a great ceremony stage and ceremony flow. I was a little frantic during our entire wedding day and worried whether my groom and I would look clueless and take too much time during the ceremony not knowing what to do, but Jessica conducted the ceremony flawlessly, was able to entertain guests who were unfamiliar with the service and coordinate with many family groups. Jessica and her helper were super fast at helping us get dressed (we wore western wedding dress and tux for ceremony and changed back into them after paebaek) and were so nice and friendly throughout. Book them early for your korean paebaek ceremony! Thank you BDK! -

Easy Planning and Super Fun
I got married in October and was super stressed and nervous about paebaek because I didn’t really know what it entailed and how to incorporate it in the wedding. Jessica at BDK was very informative and made things super easy as she gave structure and recommendations to the process. We opened paebaek up to our guest after cocktail hour and everyone loved it (us included)! Jessica emcee-ed the paebaek and definitely energized the guests and made this ceremony super fun and enjoyable for everyone. If you plan to have a paebaek, I highly recommend BDK to provide the service! -

Don't look anywhere else, BDK | mint is who you're looking for.
I can't even begin to explain how great of an experience I had with BDK | mint. I got hanboks through them and had a Korean Ceremony through them. When it came to designing a custom hanbok, they didn't mind explaining things over and over again with the questions I had, and they are very knowledgable about traditional vs. modern looks, and what color combinations work and don't work. The hanboks were absolutely BEAUTIFUL and extremely high quality, handled with so much love and care.
Don't even get me started with the Paebaek experience. My wedding wouldn't have been the same without having one! Jessica is so bright and so knowledgable about Korean culture but VERY comfortable to talk to and be around if you're not super in-touch with your Korean culture. She is passionate, fun, respectful, and you can tell she really loves what she does. She is not shy in front of a crowd and she's very pleasant to be around with a huge smile on her face! Sylvia is also just as pleasant to be around and very gentle when helping out with dressing you and helping you bow if you need assistance!
I personally made a video about me and my husband's experience with BDK | mint. If you type BDK mint in YouTube and see the title, "Our Korean Wedding Ceremony" you will see our experience and hopefully you can see for yourself how amazing it was. Don't look anywhere else! BDK | mint is the way to go. Your guests will be VERY wowed! -

The best vendor
BDK Mint was my favorite vendor on my wedding day. Through the entire process Jessica was extremely prompt in communications, very flexible, and easy to work with. On the day of, they totally blew my expectations. The set up is gorgeous and they make the ceremony so incredibly easy. They come with everything prepared, back up, clips, pins, everything. They've thought of every detail and help you get dressed into their beautiful robes. They help you through the process of the ceremony. My Korean family was so impressed with the whole thing and asked how I found them, and will be hiring them for any future weddings in the area. My American friends loved it because Jessica is fluent in both Korean and English. She made the ceremony so enjoyable for everyone! We had such a blast. I would recommend BDK to anyone considering. They truly are the best. -

What a dream
Jessica and Sylvia were THE BEST. I cannot rave enough about their professionalism, quality of customer service, expertise, friendliness, and agility. I was the type of bride to be that was indecisive and all over the place to put it bluntly. But Jessica handled our communications well, promptly, and so professionally. When we met in person she and Sylvia got right to what they do best, letting me relax and enjoy my time with my family and friends. I had so much fun getting ready with them, and my family and fiancés family (who are not korean) LOVED the ceremony. My fiancé and I were surprised at just how much we loved having our family members participate and be involved in the merging of our two families. Jessica was a killer MC catering to the Korean speakers in the room as well as the non korean speakers. By the end of Friday, we felt like the weekend couldn’t get even better (it did obviously but BDK raised the bar IMMENSELY. If you are on the fence about doing a paebaek, JUST DO IT. You will not regret it one bit. It’s an amazing memory now not just for us but for our friends and family too. Last note - we did our paebaek during our rehearsal dinner. This worked out great because everyone got excited about the rest of the festivities the next day. HIGHLY RECOMMEND BDK MINT! -

So much fun!!!!
BDK Mint was professional from the first e-mail to the final execution of the paebaek ceremony. They were very responsive and accommodated all of my requests. The actual ceremony was beautiful and so much fun! Everyone laughed and every guest I spoke to raved about it. We swapped out the traditional American bridal party intros and speeches and incorporated the bridesmaids and groomsmen into the ceremony instead. They were introduced individually and everyone gave us short well wishes :) -

August 30th 2019 wedding
If anyone is remotely considering having a paebaek at their wedding, I would say “Go for it” and make sure you ask BDK Mint to help organize the event. BDK Mint was
so fast in setting up everything needed for the ceremony and helped everyone dress in their hanboks. Jessica was so helpful with providing us info on what to expect in the ceremony and helped us include all of our parents, aunts and uncles from both sides of our family. Our guests had so much fun watching the paebaek and said it was the highlight of their evening. We cannot thank BDK Mint enough for the extraordinary job they did at making our wedding one to remember. -

Wedding paebaek 9/1/19
The paebaek made our wedding extremely special, and was the highlight of the wedding. They took care of all the details and we didn’t have to prepare anything at all and everything went perfectly! I would highly recommend them to anyone considering a paebaek for their wedding! -

The best!
The Paebaek Ceremony was the best part of our wedding reception. Jessica and her team did a PHENOMENAL job at setting up the ceremony area; helping us (the bride and groom) get dressed; and presenting/leading the ceremony. It was one of the most unique and absolutely fun experiences we've had. Thank you BDK Mint! -

One of our best wedding vendor hires!
There was nothing more important to my husband and I than to highlight my Korean heritage at our wedding in North Carolina. While we dreamt of having a paebaek ceremony, we did not think that we would be able to because doing so would require someone to coordinate and narrate the ceremony for both our Korean and English speaking guests. More importantly, we needed someone who was fluent enough in English to easily communicate with us and the rest of our wedding vendors, especially our wedding coordinator.
We stumbled on BDK Mint's website by chance and discovered that BDK Mint was everything we were looking for and more! We communicated with Jessica, who was informative, professional, thorough and prompt to answer all of our questions. Even though we were not able to meet with Jessica in person or see any of the paebaek rentals, we signed a contract with BDK Mint without any hesitation, as our communications with Jessica left us with no doubt about the service BDK Mint would provide. On the day of the wedding, BDK Mint exceeded our expectations with their professionalism and knowledge. BDK Mint also made the entire process so easy, allowing us to rent beautiful hanboks as well.
While we know that many couples decide to have the paebaek ceremony at the end of their wedding reception, we decided to have our paebaek ceremony after cocktail hour and at the start of the reception, so that all of our guests could witness the paebaek ceremony. We are glad that we did it this way because all of our guests, the great majority of whom are American born, absolutely enjoyed the ceremony. Many have even stated that our wedding was the best wedding they had ever attended because they were able to witness and learn about a cultural ceremony.
We cannot recommend BDK Mint's services enough and encourage you to make the investment as you will not regret working with BDK Mint! They truly have a one-of-a-kind service. Thank you BDK Mint for the wonderful experience! We are so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with you! -

Best part of our wedding!
It was super important to us that we shared our Korean culture with all of our guests. We got hanboks from bdkmint for our engagement photos, and they turned out so amazing and beautiful. On our actual wedding day, the paebaek ceremony was THE highlight from our wedding - everyone kept telling us how unexpectedly fun and beautiful the entire thing was. It was an honor sharing my culture with our guests, and bdkmint was a huge part in making that happen, from the beautiful hanboks to Jessica’s great teamslations and explanations. My mom also looked amazing in her hanbok - she was the star of the night! -

Best part of the wedding!
As a Korean American, I haven’t stayed very true to my Korean roots. When my mom suggested we do a paebaek, I initially turned it down but I’m so happy that she made me change my mind and we ended up working with Jessica at BDK! It truly was one of the most special parts of our wedding and definitely the most entertaining! My husband and most of my friends are not Korean so it was all a hilarious surprise to them, and my Korean family appreciated including our culture in an otherwise modern American wedding. Jessica is the absolute easiest to work with, despite my many emails and multiple changes! -

The paebaek ceremony was undoubtedly the highlight of our wedding which was already fantastic as is. Jessica’s MC’ing was flawless. The hanbok was beautiful. And most of all it every guest had a blast. My husband’s 87 year old Irish grandfather teared up because he was just so overjoyed by participating in it. I recommend this to any couple hands down! -

The Paebaek with BDK Mint was the highlight of our wedding! It was a pleasure to work with Jessica throughout the planning process- she was very organized and explained the ceremony very clearly for my non-Korean husband. She also provided some great material for us to share with our family members so they knew exactly what to expect on the day.
The day of the wedding- Jessica and her team were amazing! They were extremely flexible with the venue to set-up the Paebaek ceremony decor and very efficient helping us change into our outfits. Jessica explained each step for our guests and kept everyone engaged. All of my guests have been raving about how much they loved the ceremony, and it was one of our favorite parts of the day. -

Jessica and her team were amazing from time of booking to the end of the ceremony! Jessica was always available for questions and made sure things went smoothly -- even with our crazy parental dynamics. On the day of our paebaek they were nothing but professional and absolutely amazing, despite our ceremony being outside in 97 degree summer weather! My mother is still raving about how perfect it was, and she's quite hard to please. I can't wait to get our future dohl hanbok!!!!!!!! -

For my wedding, I wanted to have a traditional Korean dress that was still somewhat Western. When I came in, I didn't really know exactly what I wanted, but Jessica and her mother helped me not only to choose the right style but also to customize it to my preferences. Since I live fairly close, I was able to come in for multiple fittings, allowing them to tweak the dress for a great fit. The price is more than reasonable, as I really think this is not just a dress but a work of art. Thank you so much! -

Jessica and team from BDK Mint was a complete dream. We were going back and forth about having a paebaek ceremony but we are so happy that we decided to do it. Not only was the ceremony entertaining, it was one of the highlights of the entire day. Our guests were so excited to have been a part of it and loved seeing the traditional bowing (while being able to understand since it was translated from Korean to English). The only downfall is that our parents now think we're going to have 25 kids...and we're held accountable by all of our guests. In all seriousness, I would recommend BDK to anyone thinking about having the ceremony and/or getting their hanboks custom made! -

The girls at BDK mint made the whole pAebaek experience extremely special for us.. Jessica was SO nice and professional from the very beginning . They came early to set up.. Taught us thoroughly on what will happen during ceremony so we weren't surprised ... during the ceremony they were funny yet so informative about the traditions and meanings of the Korean ceremony. All the guests were SO impressed with our paebaek especially our non Korean guests. This was a highlight of our wedding and I had people asking where we found bdk mint. Choosing bdk mint for our paebaek ceremony was the best decision we made for our wedding ...!!!! -

One of the absolute best parts of our wedding was Paebaek with Bdk mint. My mother-in-law wanted a Paebaek ceremony at our wedding, but as I'm not Korean and have never been to a wedding with this ceremony before I had to approach it by blindly searching for information online. It was so nice when I started communicating with Jessica to have someone who could answer all of my questions in detail. I admit I was probably most concerned with my hair getting messed up with the traditional headpieces, but Jessica assured me they do this all the time and everyone's hair looks exactly the same after. She was right! Jessica and her sister helped me change out of my wedding dress, into the traditional hanbok, and back into my wedding dress for the remainder of the reception and my hair held up perfectly. The ceremony itself was very special and so enjoyable. Everyone couldn't stop talking about it after. I also love the pictures of me and my husband dressed up for Paebaek! If you're considering it, I can't recommend having a Paebaek ceremony enough and definitely recommend using BDK mint! Overall they are so professional, friendly and know what they are doing to pull off a wonderful event. -

BDK MINT was such a pleasure to work with! Jessica was incredibly responsive to all of our emails and generally got back to us within hours. She was so flexible with making everything work within our nontraditional venue and tailored a ceremony to perfectly fit our needs.
They travelled all the way out to our rural venue, set everything up, got us dressed, and walked us through every single step of the ceremony. The whole event went off flawlessly and was the perfect addition to our wedding. Hiring BDK MINT was the best decision we made for our entire wedding! They are a wonderful team! Couldn't give them a greater recommendation! -

I cannot say enough positive things about BDK Mint! Everything was set up beautifully! Jessica was so accommodating and helpful. My husband is Korean, but I am not, and she was able to blend the ceremony with Korean and English explanations. She also helped me translate my korean invitations! I could not have selected a better company to work with - I only wish I could do it all over again with them! I also got my hanbok from BDK Mint and it turned out amazing. I felt cared for each step of the way. They even recommended places to eat when we visited their shop from out of town! I really enjoyed working with the Jessica and her team. Thank you!! -

We got married at the Yale club this year and doing the PaeBaek ceremony with BDK MINT was amazing!!! Jessica and her team are fantastic. They were early to set up, helped me transition in and out of my outfits and were so so helpful... it was like I had extra help on my wedding day! Also, during the actual ceremony they made everyone laugh and it was amazing. My husband is not Korean, so I wanted to make sure all of the guests that didn't know what PaeBaek was had a good time and they definitely made sure of that and everyone laughed A LOT! -

I am Korean and it was important for me and my family to have a paebaek ceremony incorporated into our wedding and to have it translated into English as well for our wedding guests. My husband and I are currently in LA and got married in NY because of BDK MINT. Their services are unlike any other paebaek places. Jessica and her sister were so approachable, welcoming, and kind - they helped us get dressed, explained what to do to during the ceremony to my husband and me and all the participating family members. Our guests loved the paebaek and they all said they way that Jessica narrated, she seemed like a close family friend. I loved how she translated everything for our guests into English and Korean. This was the favorite part of our wedding ceremony! -

I rarely give reviews but had to for BDK MINT! My husband and I got married last April and the Paebaek was going to be the first time they were meeting! EVERYONE had such an amazing time at the Paebaek. People still bring up how amazing and beautiful the ceremony was.
The girls are so amazing! Not only were they so helpful, they were very professional, accommodating, and hilarious! They did such an amazing job keeping the mood light! My husbands family had no experience with this kind of stuff so they were obviously nervous. The girls made that go away! The fact that they spoke both Korean and English was immensely helpful and allowed all of our guests to enjoy!
This was truly an amazing and unforgettable event. I couldn't imagine anyone being able to pull it off as well as these girls. Thank you so much! -

WOW. If you're considering incorporating paebaek into your wedding, DO IT, and DO IT WITH BDK Mint. YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT.
BDK Mint did an amazing job putting together a paebaek ceremony for our Brooklyn wedding at the DUMBO Loft. My husband and most of our wedding guests are NOT Korean, so we debated whether to have paebaek at all. I thought it might be one too many things we were trying to fit into our wedding day, and I had heard horror stories about "boring" paebaeks, or ceremonies that were lost in translation. I was also planning our NYC wedding while living in San Francisco, stressed out about all the pieces I had to juggle - a true Type A bride. At my mom's insistence though, we decided to explore having paebaek at our wedding.
Long story short, choosing to work with BDK Mint was one of the BEST decisions of our wedding. It was such a special way to share my culture and traditions with our loved ones. Jessica did an amazing job narrating the ceremony in English and Korean and made it educational and enjoyable at the same time. The room was filled with laughter and love.
From initial inquiry, Jessica and her team a pleasure to work with. Jessica was prompt, professional, patient, and friendly and put my mind at ease about everything. She was flexible with our tight timeline and the quirks of a raw loft space and made sure things went smoothly. I knew it was a good sign when our Day-of-Coordinator sung her praises after seeing BDK Mint on our vendor list ;)
The day of, my parents from Seoul and our Korean guests were extremely impressed by Jessica and her team, saying it's the most delightful paebaek they've attended, far better than anything they've attended in Korea. If you know us Koreans, you know we do not throw around compliments easily ;) And our non-Korean guests came up to tell us how much they enjoyed the paebaek throughout the night.
I'm so happy to have worked with BDK Mint. Thank you Jessica and team! You are such gems <3

Selecting BDK MINT to perform the paebeak service at my wedding this past summer was the easiest decision during the whole wedding planning service. I have been going to BDK MINT to purchase hanbok with my mother since I was about 5 years old. I knew that the quality of the clothing would be beautiful, the service would be kind, and the process would be easy. Jessica walked me through ever step and made sure to explain all the cultural differences and meanings to my husband's family in a much better way than I ever could. While my mother was able to go in by herself to choose her hanbok, I went with both of my mothers-in-law so that they would not feel so out of place in a Korean store. The consultation had both of them giggling with excitement and when we went to pick up their hanbok, they looked absolutely beautiful.
The actual paebeak ceremony during the wedding was a huge success. Almost three months after the wedding I still have people telling me how much fun it was to be able to witness this traditional ceremony. Even though it is normally a private event, I explained to Jessica that I wanted it to be open to all of my guests (if they wanted to witness it) because many of my non-Korean friends expressed interest in how the ceremony would be performed. She had no problems with the idea and emceed the paebeak in both Korean and English for everyone to understand and enjoy. It was truly a wonderful way to incorporate my Korean background. The handmade Paebeak food was beautifully made and delicious as well. While the food is traditionally given to the groom's parents, they offered it to my mother. It was adorable that I had to call Jessica to try and return to her the dishes the paebeak food was packaged in, because my mother insisted that we return the beautiful Korean dishes. Jessica explained to me that the package we purchased included the dishes.
Thank you, BDK and Jessica, for helping us share this experience with all of our friends and family! -

5 stars does not do BDK MINT justice, and it was my privilege as a micromanaging bride to work with a vendor as responsive, caring and fun to work with as BDK MINT/Jessica. If you have any hesitation whatsoever about using BDK MINT as your paebaek vendor, please give them a call because all it takes is one phone call with Jessica to realize that there simply is NO other paebaek vendor with BDK MINT's professionalism or showmanship.
I had my hesitations about doing paebaek at all. Most of my Korean friends were not doing a paebaek ceremony, and I was not sure whether hiring a vendor from Philly for a paebaek ceremony in NY was smart or efficient. I could not have been more wrong. BDK MINT put on an AMAZING SHOW at my wedding. The majority of the guests at my wedding had no idea what a paebaek was, and Jessica/BDK MINT's set up and English explanations during the ceremony were not only DOWNRIGHT HILARIOUS but also incredibly informative. My husband and I keep talking about how much we learned and how much fun we had during the paebaek ceremony.
BDK MINT's rendition of the paebaek ceremony also served as the best icebreaker for my wedding guests. Our wedding was a black tie affair, and there is no doubt that seeing the bride piggyback the groom and take love shots in rainbow costumes was the perfect way for our guests to loosen up and laugh. I also highly recommend paebaek as a way to make grandparents or close aunt/uncles feel included on your special day. Our facebook/instagram newsfeeds have been blowing up with pictures of our brightly colored outfits, and our friends cannot stop talking about it.
Lastly, in terms of logistics, BDK MINT IS A DREAM. BDK MINT was early and extremely savvy with regards to the tight timeline on our wedding day. Our paebaek order changed at the last minute (because of the groom's parents' requests), and BDK MINT found a way to include the groom's uncle and aunt without running overtime.
BDK MINT/Jessica - THANK YOU <3 -

The team at BDK Mint was phenomenal. They were easy to work with, responsive to emails, and very organized. They also went above and beyond and traveled to my wedding which was 4 hours from the area. They made incorporating a paebaek ceremony into our wedding reception easy and fun. The guests LOVED the paebaek and had so much fun learning about the Korean culture. The sisters spoke in both English and Korean so that all attending guests were accommodated. -

BDK Mint is a fantastic vendor for traditional Korean Paebaek ceremony. Jessica and Liz are extremely attentive, friendly and helpful from the inquiry to the actual day. They are so experienced which helps the event running extremely smoothly. The food was delicious and the traditional dress is gorgeous. The setup is also extremely nice. Our guests like the ceremony very much. I will highly recommend BDK Mint for anyone who wants a traditional korean paebaek ceremony. -

BDK Mint did a fantastic job preparing for and executing our paebaek (traditional Korean ceremony). They arrived early to the venue, brought everything that was needed for the ceremony (including audio equipment, traditional garb, table, decorations, etc.), set up, hosted the ceremony, and cleaned up everything. Our guests all had a great time and understood the significance of the ceremony with Jessica's great hosting! I highly recommend them! -

Jessica and the bdk mint team were amazing to work with! From the date we booked them for our Pae Baek to the date of our wedding (nearly a year later), they were professional, courteous, and extremely helpful in every way. I had a lot of questions as I had never seen a Pae Baek ceremony in person, but Jessica walked me through everything. Jessica communicated with our on-site coordinator to find the perfect site for the ceremony, and made sure no detail went overlooked. On the day of, even when weather threw a wrench in our plans, she executed Plan B without even a blink and made sure everything went smoothly. She and the soomo explained everything that would happen, helped us dress in the traditional outfits, and even showed us how to bow properly. I was blown away by how fun the ceremony itself was. Jessica narrated the entire thing in both Korean and English, and kept all of our guests engaged and thoroughly entertained. Many have said the Pae Baek was a highlight of the wedding and something they'll never forget! My husband's family, who are Irish, really enjoyed getting to experience some of my family's culture firsthand, and I really treasured getting to share it with them. I would recommend Jessica and bdk mint to anyone looking to have a Pae Baek ceremony as part of their wedding! -

BDK did an excellent job in hosting our paebek ceremony. The host was bilingual, professional, and did an excellent job entertaining and hosting the event. The staff helped us change into the korean outfits, prepped us on how to bow before going out to the guests, and made the ceremony a very fun part of our wedding. Our guests LOVED this portion of our wedding, and raved about the hosts. The accompanying music was also dramatic which made for a nice entry to the reception. I highly recommend BDK. -

We did a paebaek during our wedding reception as a nod to my Korean heritage and also as a fun event for our guests to see. From the first email, Jessica was an absolute dream to work with - she responded very quickly, was so incredibly nice, and everything from answering questions to signing the contract to confirming who would be participating in the paebaek was all done with the utmost professionalism. Jessica was so accommodating and flexible (having some family members fly in for the wedding at the last minute), and the ceremony itself was flawless. The soomo helped us get dressed and gave us a quick tutorial on what to do during the ceremony, and everything ran very smoothly. Jessica was also fantastic at announcing and explaining the ceremony to our guests in both Korean and English. I've seen many other paebaek ceremonies at my friends' weddings, but I have to say that bdk|mint probably did the best job in terms of ceremony flow, quality, and professionalism. Absolutely outstanding and highly recommended to anyone wanting to do a paebaek as part of their wedding celebration! -

My husband and I eloped to Thailand and had a private ceremony together. We decided to have a ceremony/reception here with our family/friends when we got back. My husband is not Korean so we decided to replace the vow exchange ceremony with paebaek. It was such a hit with everyone and they cannot stop talking about it. They are stating that it was traditional, yet modern and cool, beautiful and interesting. I am so glad we had the idea of making the ceremony like a cultural experience and incorporating it with paebaek since 95% of our guests have never experienced one. Even the Koreans in my family are raving about it! My husband said it was a live interactive cultural exhibit that was educational, yet still fun.
I have grown so fond of Jessica, I can go on and on in this post just writing about her. She is so attentive, responsive, organized, thorough, sweet, fun and helpful! The Soomo was perfect as well and Jessica’s deliver and narration in Korean/English was perfection. She exceeded our expectations and made all of this possible. I am eternally grateful for her support and dedication to our reception. She has not only worked very hard on our behalf, but also came up with clever solutions or suggestions along the way to facilitate this process. We even bought a hanbok for my nephew last minute from them and they tailored it for me so quickly. It looked amazing on my nephew and he wasn’t able to try it on (if you need hanboks, go to them!).
We are beyond satisfied with BDK and we will always recommend them to everyone. We can’t thank BDK Mint enough for the exceptional customer service and flawless execution during our ceremony. Customer service like this makes clients feel so special and Jessica makes you feel like she really cares about developing long-term relationships that mean more than just throwing another wedding and generating revenue. We thank the BDK mint team from the bottom of our hearts. -

Our Paebaek was the highlight of our rehearsal dinner. My husband is adopted from Korea and many of his childhood friends as well. This beautiful ceremony was a wonderful and memorable way for all of us to incorporate his Korean heritage. We were grateful as the ladies travelled to New York and were the greatest of professionals. -

Jessica, her sister and her mom run a stellar business! We've known them for years ever since we were young children and I just knew that when my brother used BDK for their paebaek services last year in NYC, we had to book them for our wedding in August. We just hoped they would come down to DC with their services. And luckily they were more than accommodating to come! My husband is Caucasian and I'm Korean, so we definitely needed the Korean translated into English for both sides of the family to understand what was going on and Jessica nailed it! Her Korean and English is so spot on and this is very difficult to find with other paebaek services. Any questions or concerns we had were always addressed right away. Their paekaek hanbooks were very clean and had lovely colors and the background set up and table and cushions looked fabulous! Even my event coordinator commented that BDK had the most beautiful paebaek outfits he's seen in the 20 years he's been in the wedding business. I special ordered my own hanbook and Jessica's mom did such a wonderful job making it. It looked beautiful - like a watermelon (meaning the colors I chose!) I would definitely recommend this company to fellow Koreans that plan on doing a paebaek in addition to their western ceremony. You won't be disappointed!!! -

We had our wedding ceremony first and then had to quickly change into korean ceremony because of our time constraint. Jessica and the lady who assisted in the garb change and bowing was great. They were super helpful and considerate. Jessica speaks both languages fluently so she did the translation and moderated the bows. The lady who assisted with the bows was super sweet and professional. -

My husband was adopted from Korea as an infant and raised in Upstate NY. We wanted to honor and incorporate his Korean heritage with the paebaek.
Working with Jessica in the planning process was simple. And their professionalism was outstanding. The ceremony we did during our rehearsal dinner, and it was a treasure. It was well narrated in English, as everyone at our event had never experienced this ceremony before. Many of our groomsmen and friends were also adopted Koreans, and they were so in awe and proud of the Korean culture they originated from.
It was a beautiful and initimate way to start out our wedding weekend with our family. -

I had a PaeBaek ceremony during my reception as the first event. We used that time to introduce both families. Jessica did an amazing job directing the family, explaining what was going on to our guest and making the ceremony very entertaining. Everything ran smoothly, I was able to give my in-laws a nice traditional gift (all the food from PaeBaek) and my pictures looked great. Everything ran smoothly, they were there on time and I really enjoyed working with them. -

Bidulki Judan went above and beyond the call of duty. They paid attention to all the little details that can go haywire during a wedding. They easily adapted to the changes that we needed and were super professional. They also were very informative in describing the paebaek ceremony to non-Koreans. From the first time we met them to the very last minute, we recommend them for their professional, ease of all and awesome-ness in general! Thanks again to the BD team! :) -

They were so patient with us in walking us through the ceremony and helping us get dressed into the hanboks, oh and not to mention all of my many emails back and forth of questions leading up to the big day= ). They incorporated all of our guests and made the ceremony fun for everyone. It was so much fun We absolutly loved it! We couldnt have asked for a more perfect paebaek!!!! -

Bidulki Judan was amazing. We were late on planning our Korean PaeBaek ceremony for our wedding but they were very accommodating and everything went smoothly during the ceremony. It was held during my reception and the ability for their staff to speak both Korean/English fluently for the audience also made things much easier. I had many friends and family come up to me after the wedding and mention that it was their favorite part of the wedding.
The setup was fast and the clothing and materials were beautiful. I highly recommend them for anyone's Korean wedding. -

As a Korean American, it was super important to have a Korean ceremony. Bidulki Judan were AMAZING! Quality was outstanding. My family who live in Korea said that food was delicious and authentic. There was nothing fake. The props they brought were also all authentic and beautiful. I've seen pae baek's that are very cheap and dirty. I could not have asked for anything more. Everyone complimented us on the pae baek. And friends who have done pae baek before were blown away by the authenticity providd by Bildulki Judan. Hands down the most favorite part of our wedding. They thought of every detail, even including the music. Highly recommended. -

They have an amazing staff and Jessica, the VP, was great to work with. She took the time to make sure all questions and concerns were addressed. There were a few requests that came up the day of and she worked around all issues very smoothly. I definitely recommend using this company, you won't regret it! -

They were terrific! Very organized, helpful, nice. The music was hard to listen to - traditional stuff I guess, that whiny high-pitched string sound with a tinny percussion instrument. Also, if the bride doesn't want help rising, you may have trouble convincing the attendant not to still pull you up. Her help is good for timing of the bows, just be firm about needing to get up under your own power and balance. :) -

I have never been in a Paebaek ceremony before, but I had seen one. It was so cool! My non-Korean friends and family raved over how colorful, romantic, funny and beautiful it all was. My wife said that it was Excellent, impressive, and wonderful. I would recommend Bidulki Judan to anyone considering having the ceremony at a wedding. -

Everything was absolutely beautiful and having professionals take care of all the details made our lives much, much easier. Also, having Jessica explain in English what the significance of each part of the Paebaek represented and meant made our guests feel like they were a part of the ceremony as well. It honestly turned out better than we could have imagined and it was one of my favorite parts of our wedding! -

Jessica was so helpful from the very first e-mail I sent her through the day of our wedding. Her mother made my hanbok and it was absolutely beautiful! The paebaek ceremony was amazing!!! Our family and guests absolutely loved it. I couldn't be more thrilled with the level of service we received. They set everything up, ran the ceremony and cleaned up afterward. Everything went so smoothly and just looked beautiful! -

Bidulki provided our family hanboks and coordinated the pae baek ceremony. Jessica and her mother are extremely professional and caring. We were very impressed with the follow-up and attention to detail before the ceremony and everything was a hit! We're so thankful to have had them as a part of our wedding. They are the best. -

Jessica is very kind and was a pleasure to work with. We communicated via email until we met on the day-of, but she was very responsive and even went out of her way to help me find make-up artists and DJs. She is very professional at her job and executed the Paebaek ceremony flawlessly. I was also concerned about putting the "bee-nyuh" through my up-do, because I was afraid it would completely mess up my hair. To my surprise, Jessica knew just where to put the traditional ornament through my up-do and it didn't mess up my hair at all. I was assured by my makeup artist, who knew Jessica personally, that she would take great care of me. BDK mint is the place to go if you live in Philly and want to have your Paebaek at your wedding! -

Bidulki Judan did an excellent job with our Paebaek. Everything was beautiful and we received so many compliments. Jessica Kim provided the narration and was very clear, concise and funny. Our guests were both entertained and educated by the ceremony! Bidulki Judan arrived early to set up, helped me to get dressed, set up the Paebaek scene and the ceremony was on time and ran smoothly. The Paebaek was definitely a highlight of my wedding! -

Jessica was amazing when we contacted her to rent some paebaek items for our wedding. Our wedding was in Rochester, NY when Bidulki is located in Elkins Park, PA. Jessica was so helpful when we were deciding what we needed and how we were going to get it here. A few family members were traveling north from Philly for the wedding, so we had asked them to pick up and drop off the supplies. Jessica even worked with them to coordinate a schedule that would work for the both of them to get the different items here and back. I highly recomment Bidulki to anybody who is willing and able to participate in the traditional paebaek ceremony. My husband is American and his family absolutely loved watching and taking part in the tradition. Thank you! -

Jessica and her partner were very prompt, patient, and easy to work with. They set up all the paebaek ceremony things before we got to the house, and everything was beautiful. We were running late from the rehearsal and they waited patiently for us. They never asked us to hurry up and were very cordial. The price was higher than what we would have liked to pay, but all of our families and friends loved the ceremony and we were all very happy we did the paebaek. -

Bidulki Judan did a wonderful job in leading the Korean ceremony. Our wedding guests loved it especially since most of them have never been exposed to a Paebaek ceremony. It was very entertaining to the guests. The bride and groom was also put at ease in following through with the ceremony with no previous rehearsal since Jessica and the Soo-moo were very patient and directed with clear guidance. -

The announcer & Soo mo (who helps you bow) were very helpful. I'm glad I decided to bring them on site because they did an amazing job explaining the tradition and stories that go along with it.
I called about 3-4 different places for paebaek and Bidulki's prices were most reasonable.

I appreciated the timeline/instructions that they provided for the day's events. They were also good about communicating with us often prior to the wedding day. I thought the music was too loud at times and it was difficult to hear the translations/announcements. At one point it was a bit disorganized because they forgot to give the microphone to my husband's parents after we bowed to them. Overall though, our guests really enjoyed being able to watch the Paebaek. -

One of our favorite moments at our wedding was the Paebaek ceremony. It was a beautiful and unique way to celebrate the Korean culture and to honor my family. I highly recommend it! -
