From start to finish, she truly went above and beyond to bring our vision to life--and then exceeded it in every possible way. Every detail of the decorations was absolutely stunning. You could tell that so much thought, care, and creativity went into every piece. The entire setup felt elegant, cohesive, and beautifully personalized, creating such a magical atmosphere for our celebration. What made her stand out even more was who she is as a person. She was so sweet, caring, and professional throughout the entire process. She listened to what we wanted, offered thoughtful ideas, and made everything feel easy and stress-free. It genuinely felt like she put her heart into our event, and that meant so much to our family. We are so grateful for her dedication and talent. She helped make this special day unforgettable, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who truly cares and delivers exceptional work. Vanessa, thank you for all that you did for us.

I wanted to come back here to update my review of Matt's Event Planner. After my last review I…read moreheard from Vanessa, one of the owners I believe, and she said how they wanted to make things better for me and provide me with the throne chair I had asked for in exchange for the deposit I had already given. I was so grateful that they came around with this because it saved me having to spend on this rental elsewhere. Vanessa and her team were very thoughtful, kind and flexible with allowing me to pick up the chair and drop it off when it was most convenient for me. Upon picking it up we were greeted by other members of her team who were also super friendly and helpful. I am sad that my finances did not allow me to hire them for the entire event as I know they would've gone above and beyond. I highly recommend them to anyone (that can afford it LOL) that is planning a big event! Thank you, Vanessa and team! The throne chair was just what my event needed.

Getting Queen Married (hehe) was so awesome, I'm so grateful that we picked this beautiful location and became a part of its history!

We had our first venue fall through, but when we called the Queen Mary we were immediately put into the best hands and made to feel at total ease. Stacia and Breanna were over-the-top with the way they treated us like we were life-long friends of theirs. My Wife and I were continually impressed and made to feel at ease with all of the planning...all the way through to the morning after our wedding. Early on, Stacia took all of our calls and showed us rooms on the ship several times over several weeks and she never lost patience or got annoyed with us. Even when she stayed late after a long day of work to show us a ball room just "one more time." She was still warm, welcoming and full of smiles. Then Breanna took us under her wing and we were instantly treated like close friends to her also! From the food options and working with our budget, to the diagrams of our room, to the food tasting where we felt like royalty and even met the chef, to the upgraded location into the grand ballroom, to the suite she got us for the night of our wedding and so much more. Both my wife and I recommend the Queen Mary, and Breanna especially for any event of any kind. We are both in hospitality and customer service but Breanna and her team blew even us away with how well we were treated. If you are wondering about using the Queen Mary for your wedding, it's the best and easiest choice you could make. Don't hesitate, Call Stacia or Breanna and book with them asap....before someone else takes your spot!

Smita Mohindra and her team at Ethnic Essense (EE) did an extraordinary job in planning, managing…read moreand executing our daughter's wedding celebrations over the last weekend of June 2026. Indian weddings are multi-day affairs with several separate events. Coupled with that, our son-in-law comes from a Mexican heritage. The EE team took all of these into account to visualize and implement a memorable, once-in-a-lifetime experience for us and all of our guests at a beautiful venue, the Hyatt Regency Resort in Huntington Beach, CA. Their services included complete event planning and timeline orchestration, coordination of multiple wedding components, including, specific location/venue selection and decoration for each event, Hindu priest for the wedding, bridal party hair & make-up, DJ & Lighting, Groom's horse and dhol (drum) player for the "baraat", catering for multiple events including "Chai Time", Appetizers & Dinners for Sangeet and the Reception, shuttle service between 2 guest hotels and wedding venue, etc. Many of these activities were implemented using different vendors, but EE had a ready list of tried and tested vendors for each, and they handled the actual negotiations on our behalf. Each event venue was very creatively conceptualized with Indian & Mexican elements and masterfully executed to create a lovely ambience. Smita's background and experience in design was amply on display! The DJ did a super job in getting everyone to get off their feet and join in the fun. The caterer, Manohar of Delhi Palace, served up a delicious cornucopia of appetizers and entrees that included items featuring Mexican, North Indian and Bengali flavors. EE helped us to refine the fusion menu that included items such as churros, kulfi-faluda, 3 types of halwa, paneer & lamb tacos, avocado fries, variety of kababs, luchi-kosha mangsho-dum aloo, etc. I would like specially recognize our event planner, Jennifer, who did a masterful job guiding us over a 15 month period planning our event and managing all day-of activities. She was ably assisted by the EE team, including Rippu, Neha, Priya and others. The EE proactiveness and attention to detail was really awesome. Case in point: I fell accidentally on the night before Sangeet and was hospitalized. They set up a livestream so that I could watch it from my hospital room. Next day, I got released in a wheel chair/walker so I could participate in the ceremony, and they had a ramp built to get on the wedding "mandap"! All without us asking. All said and done, we are very happy with all that EE did for us and would whole-heartedly recommend them to anyone considering an experienced event management team who can deliver memorable experience.

Our wedding experience through the Chapel of Orange (thanks to Melissa & Cheryl) from our very…read morefirst consult visit through to its conclusion was enjoyable, positively memorable, and most importantly - SO EASY!!! Initially, my wife and I didn't believe we would be able to locate a wedding venue to move forward with our vision for an intimate and whimsical wedding aesthetic. So much so that we were a hair trigger away from eloping. Thankfully, as a final measure, we decided to create a checklist of required items that a wedding venue had to have for us to consider moving forward with a wedding including but not limited to; 1) an organic set of barebones / overall aesthetic that would pair well with a playful and lighthearted whimsical evening themed wedding aesthetic that in no way resembled the typical cookie cutter wedding 2) efficiently organized with strong vendor relations and/or recommendations, and 3) cost effective in the context of a smaller guest list of about 70. From the thoughtfully salvaged bricks from a to-be torn down structure in Europe that made up the archways of the reception area to the beautiful garden area rich with lush plants flowers nestled cozily between the ceremony and reception areas, the Chapel of Orange had checked off every box we had without us having to compromise. The well oiled machine that was Melissa and Cheryl far fostered a positive wedding planning experience as they handled EVERYTHING in such an unflappable manner. In addition to coordinating and scheduling design appointments, Melissa coordinated the vendors running their part correctly from the florist, to the videographer, to the Photo Booth, to the DJ, to the caterer, to the cake designer, and all the way down the list to the highly talented photographer Ashley Paige. Melissa also gave us a month by month wedding checklist to follow along to at the very start which made the ongoing planning process easy to follow while also simultaneously reducing any wedding related anxiety stemming from the feeling that we had forgotten some important detail along the way. Melissa's incredibly consistent and reliable communication as well as clear direction cut any unnecessary internal and external noise that went into the wedding process. Dates for big decisions such as our food tasting, table design, and final rehearsal were planned well in advance, allowing us to do nothing more than be present and direct the final decisions. Additionally, Melissa facilitated for the florist consult date and the DJ online phone meeting to verify lighting and song choices. The day of rehearsal, we dropped off all our supplemental DIY designs for our themed wedding and Melissa handled the rest of set-up. The day of the wedding was smooth like butter; Melissa had... 1) our parking spaces reserved with bright orange cones for us as well members of the wedding party, 2) boutonnieres ready and pinned members of the wedding party as they arrived 3) both the groom and bride's prep rooms staged and ready to go, 4) and all vendors on standby and ready for instruction. I have no doubt that Melissa handled so many more fires behind the scenes as my wife and I didn't have a single hiccup or moment where we had to step away to address a concern. It was marvelous, and the best day of our lives. TLDR: The Chapel of Orange runs like a well cared for and harmonious machine headed by Melissa and Cheryl. At each step of the way, they took the feedback we had the day of our wedding, executed the upper limit of potential we had for our whimsical garden wedding.

We received so many compliments from our family and friends about how beautiful everything was, how delicious the food tasted, and how smoothly the night went, which is a true reflection of Cheryl and her team. We are especially grateful for how accommodating and patient Cheryl was throughout the entire process. No matter how many questions or requests we had, she always made us feel heard and supported, and that made all the difference during such an important time in our lives.
