My husband and I work long hours and often travel for work, so it's no joke when I say that Sierra was instrumental at helping plan our wedding (we probably would have gotten married in 2025 at the rate at which I plan things...) We booked SBWE as a full-service planner in summer 2021 and we worked together for over a year to plan our October wedding. Sierra was thoughtful, responsive, and detail-oriented at all times and gave us wonderful advice on how to spend our budget. She recommended terrific vendors, kept all of our records in an easy, up-to-date Google drive, and troubleshooted minor issues with a positive attitude. Honestly, our wedding day was perfect in my eyes. Sierra and her team kept me entirely stress-free that day, the vendors were great, and my husband and I are still getting compliments weeks later. We would happily recommend Sierra and SBWE to any couples searching for help with their wedding day -- their services are absolutely worth every penny.

We were referred to Queenie by a close friend (also one of our bridesmaids!) who had used her as a…read morecoordinator, and it was the best decision ever! Queenie is the definition of professional, organized, and incredibly thoughtful in her approach. From the beginning, she provided us with all the right tools and guidance, giving us appropriate questions to ask vendors, reviewed contracts, and shared insightful feedback that really helped us make informed decisions. She was never pushy; instead, she offered suggestions based on her expertise while always empowering us to shape the wedding in our own way to truly make it OURS. We had some pretty unconventional requests, and she never hesitated to support us. We genuinely felt heard and cared for the entire time. Queenie kept everything on track with structured meetings, a shared Google Drive, spreadsheets, checklists, and timelines that even we (as Type A people) found incredibly helpful. She was always available to answer questions or provide updates, be it by text, phone, or email. As the big day got closer and things became busier for us, Queenie stepped in even more to coordinate with vendors, troubleshoot logistical issues (like creatively solving our catering parking situation with a carpool plan!), and make sure everything was good to go. And then the day of! Queenie and her team executed everything flawlessly! She kept us on track of our timeline without ever making us feel rushed (you hear of the day going by so quickly so often from previous couples) and the entire day flowed beautifully. Honestly, we've heard so many couples talk about the behind-the-scenes chaos and hiccups of wedding days but with Queenie, there was none of that (during, behind the scenes, OR after). Everything was just PERFECT. It was the most perfect day and tbh, we were shocked that we DID that, and we know we owe so much of that to her and her team! Queenie, thank you for helping us celebrate with our favorite people in the most joyful, stress-free way possible. Truly the best day of our lives. Thank you.

We had no idea what to expect going into this, but Queenie is truly a gem and ensured an amazing experience. Not only did she emcee for the evening, but prior to the day of, she made sure we had a detailed timeline leading up to the wedding, fun game ideas (that our guests couldn't stop talking about after), and a smooth and coordinated experience with Norm. Though my husband and I went into every prep meeting feeling a little chaotic, we always came away with clarity and renewed excitement! The day of is where both Queenie and Norm really shined. Norm was a master at reading the room and keeping the music and energy lively. His attention to detail with his set up ensured everything worked smoothly. Queenie continued to shine and amaze as the night went on. Even with multiple obstacles and even some points of tension throughout the night, she went out of her way to smooth things over and keep the show going. We don't know how she did it with the random things popping up interrupting our detailed timeline, but we are so grateful to her ensuring we got every experience we wanted for our special day. The only caveat to that is we had to sacrifice a little of our dance time. We know Norm would've kept that party going late into the night if we were given the chance. Still, we had the best time and a memorable night. If weddings were more than a one time thing, we'd be booking the both of them every time!

I highly recommend Celine to be your coordinator! She was my wedding coordinator and I had a super…read morehappy experience working with her.

Our US wedding were held in Franciscan Gardens and we are glad to have Melody and her team to be our day-of-coordinator. Even though it's called "day-of", Melody still took her time and energy out to meet with us multiple times many weeks before our big day to make sure everything is taking care of. Her attention to details and thoroughness really helped saved millions of our brain cells as we approach our big day as well as the day of the wedding. She gave us confidence and a peace of mind which is very important to us the newly wed to make sure we can actually enjoy our wedding with our guests without worry about other details. Thank you Melody and your team for the patience and support!

We worked with Love Loud Events for over three years planning our wedding (thanks COVID!)…read more Christina was wonderful to work with. She gave honest feedback when I ran different vendors past her, and was adept at understanding our vision. Honestly, by the time our wedding came around, I felt like she was our friend rather than our planner! On the day of, you are going to need someone who has the courage to be assertive with a range of vendors and guests. You don't anticipate how hard this is until you're in it- someone needs to make sure the show is on schedule and that people are moving where they should. Christina balanced this well, skillfully threading the needle as kind and no-nonsense. I always heard how stressful weddings were for brides, but was surprised to find that I simply had FUN. I credit Christina with taking much of the worry off my plate. Multiple friends and family members also mentioned how helpful/enjoyable Christina was, and I truly value their opinions. We recommend Love Loud very highly, and I'm already thinking about what kinds of events we can host in the future that we can hire Christina for! Or invite her to. :)

They were incredible at taking our scattered ideas and weaving them into a cohesive design. When our venue pushed back on our ceiling swags, Tina worked closely with them to find a compromise everyone loved. Whenever small or catastrophic issues popped up, they came to us immediately with solutions instead of stress. Tina and Vivian kept us focused on the fun parts while using their experience and vendor connections to keep everything on track. They saved us so much time, stress, and money, we genuinely couldn't have done it without them!

They helped answer so many of our questions along the way, connected us with other amazing vendors (eg, florist, signage), and were critical to the coordination with those other vendors and our venue. Their organization and pre-made spreadsheets were our lifelines throughout our more than 12 months of planning, and helped ease the admittedly overwhelming and sometimes stressful tasks of wedding planning. On top of all that, Tina and Vivian truly went above and beyond for us -- one of the sweetest surprises was when they made us our own personalized vow books, which we'll treasure forever. They were incredibly responsive, an absolute joy to work with, and it always felt like they genuinely had our best interest at heart. On the day of the wedding, everything flowed seamlessly. We actually had multiple guests tell us it was one of the most organized, punctual weddings they had ever been to--while also being one of the most fun! So many people also commented on all the thoughtful touches woven throughout our day, which we absolutely couldn't have pulled off without Tina & Viv's guidance and vision. Tina and her team made our disco dream wedding come true, and any couple would be lucky to have them by their side. We can't recommend them enough! PS. Both of our families are Chinese and speak Mandarin, which Tina speaks, so having a bilingual planner - especially for the day of to help with family coordination - was a huge plus! It also helped as she understood cultural aspects of our wedding.

She is so seamless in her transitions between Cantonese, Mandarin, and English and we love that her fun personality kept everyone engaged throughout the evening! You can tell Kate is incredibly experienced by how flexible she is with any hiccups.

She was also so sweet and nice during our planning call, and really made us feel comfortable because she understands all these family dynamics and really helped us feel grounded leading up to the wedding.

She performed as guests were entering the ballroom and she understood the assignment! We had beauty and beast inspired centerpieces and she sang Tale as Old as Time as everyone were finding their seats. Swoon! She was so professional in providing the Cantonese and English translation for our guests. We received many compliments from friends stating how amazing she was. She kept the crowd entertained and involved with everything going on. We could not have picked a better MC for our night. If you're in need of a MC to cater to Chinese speaking family and guests, we definitely recommend Kate.
