    Words cannot describe how amazing the KQ team is. We booked them in 2019 and due to the pandemic, we had to postpone multiple times. They were so flexible, professional, and creative. Not only are they so attentive to my husband and I but they would also provide different perspectives. My husband and I ended up getting married on 12/12/20 and they were again so flexible. Due to the pandemic, things kept changing constantly, but my husband and I already knew we wanted to just get married. They helped us with our outdoor wedding church ceremony, our drive thru wedding reception and our dinner at the Hyatt Regency Huntington Beach. We got so many complements from out flower, the professionalism of the team for fries and family. (My mom kept raving about Espy and my sister, who was my maid of honor kept complementing Hannah). It was such a great experience with them and my husband and I would love to book with them again to celebrate formally with friends and family when it's safer circumstances. Thank you KQ team! For those considering booking them as a florist and wedding planner, do it! It was stress free and such a fun experience. Fun fact I also got my wedding dress from them ! They really your one stop shop.

    I absolutely love the services at KQ Elements. I found them through the Pronovia dress website and when I called, they had the dress I was looking for! Since the first appointment I had Espy has always been so sweet and accommodating. They also offer great full-service planning, so their boutique is really a one-stop shop. My husband and I ended up also getting their same day coordination with Espy and Hannah. They are both so detailed and professional, they made our wedding flawless. I definitely recommend them for any event you're having! Thank you Espy and Hannah!

    This is a super delayed review but then again I'm not really one to write these. I was compelled to do this because I don't know how we would have executed the wedding without Espy and her assistant. Thank you again!!!

    Working with Jayden at KQ Elements was a complete joy. He is a great listener, offers excellent recommendations and delivers gorgeous arrangements. I met and spoke to several florists before fortunately stumbling upon KQ Elements. Wedding flowers and decor can be so expensive, and it pains me to spend money on generic things. I considered doing my own centerpieces, but with a large wedding, 300 guests, it wasn't realistic for me. I found most florists to be boring and unimaginative. They nod and say yes to whatever Pinterest pictures you show them. I felt good when my fiancé and I walked into the KQ Elements showroom. There are wonderful examples of place settings and beautiful set designs displayed. I really felt like a bride, and not just a window shopping customer. It was fun for us to sit and speak with Jayden. He'll ask you questions about your color scheme and the kind of ambiance you want to provide for your guests. He was familiar with our venue and offered a lot of insight on how we could decorate and make our wedding look so special. He will not pressure you to sign a contract. It's refreshing to meet a vendor who does not double as a salesman. I had complete trust in Jayden. I simply requested a color scheme and for him to use seasonal flowers. He made sure to ask about my favorite flowers and incorporated them into my wedding bouquet and bridesmaids' bouquets. They were beautifully unique, so vibrant in color and voluminous! I really felt represented in my wedding bouquet, as strange as that may sound. I'm completely obsessed with it! My guests complimented my centerpieces all night. They loved how fresh and bold the arrangements were. Jayden also personally came to decorate my sweethearts table. It was so elaborate, glamorous and decadent. He truly represented my personality in the decor. My wedding coordinator told me he came early and worked on it for hours. I had the pleasure of seeing Jayden at my wedding reception when I came a little early to touch up. I was in awe of the decor and was surprised to see him there! Brides, if you're looking for a refreshing perspective on wedding decor please go to KQ Elements. He is masterful at set design and always offers creative ideas. His assistant told me that he never does the same arrangements and works with the best flowers available. I'm so sorry this review is so long, I'm just passionate about passionate artists like Jayden. His love of his job is evident and it was a pleasure working with him. Jayden, thank you so much for making my wedding reception so beautiful. I can't even thank you enough!

    I used KQ Elements for floral services and day-of coordination for my wedding on 7/21/18. They are pretty much a one-stop-shop for wedding planning, wedding coordination, flowers, and even bridal gowns. SHORT REVIEW 1) For flowers: You can easily find florists that can make beautiful arrangements and bouquets. What you want for your wedding is someone with experience who has a team that can ensure on time delivery and arrangement for your special day. Jayden is great to work with. Price is reasonable given quality of work. If you have a vision for your wedding, he will make it come to fruition. If you are clueless, then let his expertise guide you. Will update with better photos once I get them from photographer. I posted what I could screen-cap from Facebook. 2) For day of wedding coordination: Espy and Hannah are the best! They made my day go smoothly that I actually enjoyed my wedding day. If you have many parts to your wedding - such as tea ceremony, church ceremony, reception and/or vendors, things can go wrong at any point. In hindsight, what made my day memorable was not an expensive cake, the perfect reception dress, or the most elaborate centerpiece. What made the most difference was having a coordinator take care of the minutia so I could focus on being the bride. LONG REVIEW for wedding coordination. First off, let me say that I'm a very practical and frugal person for the most part. Initially, I only wanted KQ for floral services, so the idea of hiring someone for coordination was the furthest from my mind. Luckily, my now husband was with me at the time and said he wanted to hire a coordinator so that I would be able to enjoy my own wedding day and not be stressed. I went to their Westminster location to book them for floral arrangements. They offer discounts for bundle packages, so the more services you add on, the better the discounts. At the time, I had not yet bought my dress, so I went to GG location to take a look at the dresses and try on some couture gowns. I was greeted by Espy and she helped me try on dresses. She was so kind and didn't give me any pressure at all. She followed up by email with me and sent me photos of the dresses I tried on. I ended up not finding my perfect gown there, but I knew that I wanted Espy as my coordinator because I really enjoyed our interaction. So I put in a request with Jayden to have Espy as my coordinator. My list of vendors were quite long: floral, DJ, lighting, photobooth, cake delivery, caterer, hair, makeup, and photographer. That's 9 different vendors. Espy communicated with everyone, gave them a timeline with schedule of when to arrive and what time I should be finished with makeup, hair, etc. She was very organized, timely with communication and very patient with me as I was busy due to planning things from out of state. She even scheduled my wedding rehearsal the day before where I met up with both Espy and Hannah. They were a great team. They kept in communication the whole day via walkie talkie headsets which impressed me because it was a level of professionalism I was not expecting. All my vendors arrived on time and I did not have to deal with a single one of them. From rehearsal, to getting ready, to ceremony to cocktail hour then reception, through my wardrobe changes and all the crazy things inbetween, they were there the whole way and ensured a stress-free day. PROS of having Espy and Hannah 1. They are very nice and accommodating to me as well as guests. 2. They go above and beyond. I bought a bench so sit on for the guest meet and greet photo session. To my surprise, when I came back to the hotel, I found that the bench was unboxed and assembled for me. How nice of them! Also other items I brought for the dessert table was assembled as well. They also made sure items were displayed (escort cards, sign in book with pens, sand ceremony vases, etc) 3. They are trust-worthy. I felt completely comfortable that they had the keys to my hotel room. They also handled the gift box and brought all my gifts (including monetary) back to the hotel for me so I didn't have to keep an eye on things the whole night and actually enjoy dancing. Don't bother designating your family or wedding party lest you run the risk of them forgetting when they've had too much to drink. 4. They are multilingual. Espy is fluent in Spanish and English. Hannah is fluent in Vietnamese and English. If you have multicultural guests (which who doesn't in SoCal), then it's priceless to have people who can communicate on your behalf - and do so courteously. I had several guests comment on how relaxed and composed I looked even though they know I must have been nervous and stressed because all brides are. Nope. Honestly I looked that way because I was relaxed leaving all the un-fun things of wedding coordination to Espy and Hannah. Skimp on all else. Pay (or have hubby pay) for coordination as a gift to yourself.

    If you're reading this review that means you're looking for a company to catering your event. Please do not hesitate to hire them. Jayden and his team gave me the best day of my life with their services. Jayden was my wedding planner and also my florist, of course every wedding/event won't happen exactly like how you would envision it, but Jayden was very helpful and did everything he could, he tried his best to give me the best day of my life and he did 100% . All the guests loved the flowers, dessert table was gone after 5 mins . And the wedding was nothing like other weddings, it was beyond perfect! The price won't be as cheap as most Vietnamese florist places in OC, but I guarantee you it's not that expensive like all the Americanize florist and his flowers are the best. His team was very helpful too, he had Cat follow us all day to make sure we ate and were hydrated. And when the party was done he made sure I got back to the hotel and took care of the rest. I'm a very picky person so take my word for it. Jayden and his team was worth every penny . From the bottom of our heart - THANK YOU Jayden, Cat, Tammy, and Espy

    They did my wedding flowers and I loved them! Tammy was so easy to work with and very responsive via email. There were some minor adjustments I wanted the day before, and she was so flexible and more than willing to make those adjustments. The day of my wedding, all the flowers were beautiful! I was so happy with my bouquet, the arch setup, arch cluster, centerpieces, everything! Also, prices are VERY reasonable. I could not recommend a better florist, especially for a big day like your wedding!

    This review is for the other location used to be Kim Chi Flowers. Tammy did a great job with my wedding flowers and wedding cake . She was very personable, sweet and made the whole process very pleasant for us. Thank you, Tammy!

    It's hard to find where to begin ! I ordered all my florals and had wedding coordination services from KQ elements .The KQ elements team was so amazing in every way . I came to them 1.5 months before the wedding date and they made everything possible in short time . It really was the dream wedding ! Because of so many covid restrictions and regulations , I was worried I wouldn't be able to have the wedding I wanted , but KQ elements went above and beyond to ensure I had everything I had envisioned . Espy and Hannah , the wedding coordinators/planners, are a absolutely incredible . Their professionalism , dedication , patience , and kindness is beyond impressive . I cannot thank the team enough for their time , effort , and hard work . All my florals were breathtaking. Each ok of my guests complimented who beautiful the florals and set up was . I really have no words ! Thank you KQ elements for making this day so memorable and special ! If you are looking to eliminate stress and have a beautiful wedding , I definitely recommend KQ elements and especially Espy, Hannah , and Jolene !

    KQ Elements. What can I say? Words cannot describe how amazing they are. I was in search of finding the perfect flower vendor for my wedding and thought about past florists. I booked an arrangement with KQ elements retail back in 2014. Jayden greeted me and was very helpful with my budget and my ideals. He also offered Wedding Planning Services and Wedding Coordination. So I compared pricing with three other florists and his was the most cost efficient for my wedding vision. I also booked wedding coordination with KQ elements. Since my wedding was a Jordanian, Palestinian, Vietnamese Fusion wedding with a lot of moving parts I had a wedding coordination team of three people usually comes with two people. My DREAM TEAM consist of Espy, Hannah, & Jayden. I was blown away with the effective communication between all of us. They kept me calm for minor mishaps and was able to step in when the groomsmen & bridesmaid didn't. If I have my second wedding in Jordan I would hire them and fly them to Jordan. Thank you to KQ elements from the bottom of our hearts for making my dream wedding come true.

    They beautifully displayed all the decor I diy'd/bought and photos on the venues' wooden table.

    See all

Apparently, it used to be a club, but has now changed into a very high-end and cool venue for weddings or whatever type of event you want to have. One of the first thing you notice when you turn in is the amount of ample parking. There are two secured Gates that open up to a huge parking lot, definitely not cramped for sure. And it has plenty of handicap spaces which is very nice. Walking into the open air pavilion, is a real treat. What a great space! This would be a great place for outside dining, or having a band play out there and dancing, if you didn't want to be cooped up inside. Definitely tons of possibilities at this venue! Inside, there is a bar on one end and a stage on the other with a huge open area. This would be perfect for a wedding or something that's held inside, if you did not want to brave the elements outside. Company on site, and can pretty much do anything you need. And that's not all, there is an upstairs area that is perfect for an overflow room, or a VIP lounge, or just a place for say a wedding party to take a break, or anything you really want to do with it. It even has a nice little outside courtyard that you can sit and get some fresh air. I could almost write a book about how awesome this place is but suffice to say if you live in Orange county and are looking for a premier venue to have your event at, I don't think you could do any better than the colony House. Give them a call today and see what's up!

    Unfortunately, I was not able to have the Forever & Always Wedding that I dreamed of. Although…read moreHeather communicated very well, there were a couple of incidents that I found slightly unprofessional: 1. I signed a contract with one of her staff as my wedding planner. Unfortunately, from my understanding, there were unexpected changes in the company, so Heather had to take over. However, Heather responded that she would make an exception for me and not charge me an additional $1000 for this change. With all due respect, I should not be financially penalized for changes that an owner experiences; especially since I already signed the contract that I financially agreed to. 2. I encountered a lot of life changes that disrupted my ability to move forward with a wedding that my brothers were supposed to be in. For instance, I had a depressed, suicidal brother, I had another brother leave for Japan for the Marines, and I had an uncle pass away. All vendors except for Heather were so kind to fully refund my deposits due to the situation. Unfortunately, Heather responded that she was still a businesswoman and was financially hurting, so she was in no place to offer a full refund. I basically paid Heather almost $500 to establish a simple contract. I already had all the vendors in place and organized, so this deposit was for nothing. Heather should not be held responsible for unexpected circumstances, but this wedding meant a lot to me. As a business owner, you should be able to compromise with your clients based on their situation. I could have easily used that deposit to help my family for the funeral. I find this situation absurd because I never wanted a wedding planner to begin with. Our wedding list was only 32 guests, but my fiancé insisted that we hire a planner because he did not want me to stress out. I admire him for caring, but this wedding was going to be a private and intimate event with very little management. I blame myself for hiring a wedding planner when I did not need one. It is unfortunate that Heather was thinking like a businesswoman and not a human being with empathy. Nonetheless, please make sure to ask about the refund policy for emergencies such as death, health, etc. Two stars are for her communication, but I can only evaluate Heather based on my experience with her before the wedding date. Therefore, I am unable to provide feedback for her day service since my wedding never happened. Has it ever occurred to you, Heather, that you had not heard from me in a year because I was busy dealing with other important things like planning a funeral? My wedding was the last thing on my mind. Also, I was not complaining about the charge that never happened, I am complaining about your response to your changes. There was no need to comment on that you are more expensive and won't be charging me. We could have proceeded forward with whatever it was we were doing. You contacted ONE venue and that is because they had YOU sign a contract with them. FYI, my pre-engagement photos were scheduled with the photographer I hired for my wedding and I was still refunded the full amount. This vendor did not work for free either and still managed to prioritize customer service over money. You are a business owner and have the liberty to do as you please, but you must have needed the money more than I did, so I hope my contributions helped your business. Nonetheless, well done on your communication. If you have a family member with a life-threatening illness or you have a medical condition that may require potential hospitalization, please do not hire Heather as your wedding planner as she will not refund you the deposit because not make exceptions for your situation simply because she does not "work for free." Thank you.

Our venue already provided catering and bar services so we elected to do the day-of-wedding planning package. We were planning from NorCal which made it challenging in many ways.

Jenny was always encouraging yet realistic. She knew or would figure out how to best execute my vision and always had a back up plan which made me feel so secure about trusting her with creating our vision for our big day. For example, I really wanted to create a warm, rustic look over the dance floor with a ceiling of rattan pendant lights with greenery, which the venue had never done before. She really delivered on working with our venue and thinking thoroughly of all the details for execution! It turned out SO AMAZING, just perfect. We received SO many compliments on the decor from our guests! We couldn't be more grateful to Jenny and her team for carefully making every detail look perfect. Jenny was very thoughtful about details of the wedding that we would have never personally considered and asked clarifying questions to intently understand what we wanted. Her communication was responsive and clear, and it was just an absolute joy working with her. We HIGHLY recommend her for your wedding planning needs!

    So happy we booked Heather for WTW's month-of package. We were actually looking for a day-of…read morecoordinator but after speaking with Heather, we realized that month-of would be more beneficial especially with vendor logistic/timing (plus WTW prices were reasonable). Heather saw us 2x before the big day: final venue walk through and our rehearsal day. She was super organized during those 2 days and helped guide us with our venue and corral our entire wedding party during the rehearsal. Heather also provided us with a day-of timeline, even for the hours she was not physically at the venue. On the wedding day, she arrived with Annaleise (team member) around 3pm and immediately got to work with the decor set up before our 6pm ceremony. All we had to do was hand over our room key and off they went! To be honest, we were so busy that day that if we didn't have Heather helping us out, I'm not sure how we could've accomplished what we needed to do. No amount of uncles and aunties could've done what WTW did in the same amount of time hah. Plus we had a cocktail hour "flip" during our ceremony, so having WTW help us during that time was crucial. At the end of the night, all our items were returned to vendors or packed away in the boxes we brought them in and stored in our room. During the month of, WTW used Google's suite to keep everything organized and documented, which I found very helpful since its a program that I am familiar with (vs learning a new program). And Heather also provides some rentals if you want to add more to your decor, which was also VERY helpful when we needed more candles and stands. Heather is professional, calm, and assertive. She knows what needs to be done to help make your day run smoothly and is a team player with the vendors and venue. For reference, our wedding was in Riverside, a church ceremony, 8 people in the wedding party, 120 guests, ~10 vendors, plated meals, and a hotel venue reception. We had a couple funky additions in the night which made the reception feel nontraditional, but Heather handled them like it was normal. We haven't received official pictures yet, but when we do, I hope to update this review so any new potential clients can see her magic. Thanks again!!

From the florals to the signage, all of the decor was beautifully done. She has a big network of vendors as well which was especially helpful in making sure we had everything we needed for our event.

    I got married in Orange County over two years ago, and something that I still think about on a…read moreregular basis is what an amazing job the RuffleEffect team did. We used them as the day-of coordinators and the florist, but wow, they were really working with me the entire process up until and through the big day. There are so things I can say but I want to focus on three areas: 1) Prepared and organized. In the planning stages from being familiar with our vendors and communicating with them (we got married at Ranchos Las Lomas and had 24Carrots catering), to sending back and forth planning documents and scheduling details, Casey and Ally were just so good to work with. I am very particular about things but I trusted them throughout the process and felt like nothing was going to fall through the cracks. 2) Amazing florist. I'm so glad we also chose them as our florists; everything turned out exactly as I had hoped from the ceremony arch to the table centerpieces to a custom head table structure we had made. They did not skimp on the flowers at all and they were so good about mock-ups in photo form during the planning process and then an in-person mock-up of the centerpiece to make sure everything was how we wanted it to be. And most importantly, they came in a really good price! 3) So much help in the decorations. One of the reasons why we ultimately chose RuffleEffect is they have a great catalog of items to choose from (check out their "rentals" section on their site) that they can supply to you for free in their packages including candles, frames, table numbers, and some signage. I wanted to create my own custom backdrops and signage, and they helped bring some of the wood panels, create many of the decal stickers, and offered to help with setting up at no extra cost, which is really unheard of. I think that point of them always wanting to do more and wanting to make your vision come to life is really what Casey excels at. She has such a joyous personality that makes it relaxing to work with, really cares about your day, and hires a great team. We get so many compliments about our wedding years later and it's really because of RuffleEffect.

Shraddha and Karan are the sweetest wife & husband team that I have ever had the pleasure of meeting and working with. I booked Sprig and Ivy early into my wedding planning, and even though it was a long time away from our initial contact to the wedding day, Shraddha was so nice and sweet in checking up every so often to make sure I was doing ok. When it came down to the wire, WOW- They exceeded everything that you can ask for in having wedding coordinators for your wedding. They were on top of everything and anything! There were so many moments where I needed a breather, so they "snuck" me out to check out everything and get some air (because everyone was pulling me in different directions!). At one point, I really wanted to see my dessert bar, but couldn't get to it, so Karan took me through a "detour" for me to check it out on the other side before all the chaos ensued. They made sure everything was perfect from beginning to end, and I am SO happy for their amazing work ethics, wonderful personalities, and overall, just great people to have and surround yourself with. Thank you for everything!

Looking back at our wedding, we can't believe she voluntarily takes on this kind of pressure. My husband and I utilized Katie for her day of coordination and she and her team executed every detail that we wanted flawlessly. There were also other aspects of our wedding that we didn't have any opinions on and really trusted Katie's watchful eye to make it perfect for us. She delivered and more (e.g. we had a floating floral piece for our ceremony and we asked her to repurpose it for something for our reception--she set it up behind our sweetheart table and it was beautiful). As far as hiccups on the day of, there were far and few between. The major hiccup happened about 5 minutes before the ceremony when a urinal exploded on me- but hey, Katie had a cleaning kit to make sure I didn't smell for the rest of our big day and her team helped me keep my cool. Overall, we were expecting a little bit more drama but everything went by so smooth. Katie stepped in to make sure we ate our food despite being moved left and right and she kept us on schedule which to everyone's amazement, we were right on the dot with it. To summarize, what Katie did best was eliminate any worries we would have the day of so we could simply soak in all of the greatness of that day. Katie was super helpful being the first line of contact between us and the vendors. We didn't have to scramble at the last minute to confirm arrival times, to collect paperwork, etc. She continued to reassure us toward the final days of the wedding to sit back and relax. She was available throughout the process and kept us on track to meet certain milestones (e.g. finalizing guest count, confirming timeline, ensuring all inventory was ready to go, etc.). We cannot imagine having our wedding turn out the way it did without Katie. We highly recommend that you trust her to carry out your big day.
