I can truly say him & his wife was very patient & kind with my whole party as well as myself. They were very fun and knowledgeable. The pictures and 360 videos came out perfect.

Anything BUT Zen. Joy had both my husband and myself fooled…read more Leading up to the wedding she was fabulous. The most important thing to us was not being stressed and having our dream wedding. We didn't want to have to think about anything or lift a finger day of. My wedding was anything but a fairy tale. Aside from a lot of personal things happening that weekend ie: both my father and his grandmother almost dying, our apartment flooding and our washing machine breaking. Joy has a HUGE apart in why our wedding was a disappointment. I don't appreciate being blamed for not "hiring professionals " ( and that is why our wedding was a disaster ) when in fact she is a professional and we hire two people of her choosing to help with set up, break down and taking care of our fur baby. Aside from our drunk dj who also has a HUGE factor as to why our wedding was also ruined but he was a 4.9 star dj. She blamed US for why everything went wrong. She blamed my photographer for why things went wrong. She took zero responsibility and showed zero remorse and did not apologize for her behalf of why things went wrong. Saturday October 30th was our rehearsal. We showed up an HOUR before start time which was 530 we asked people to show up at 5 so there were not stragglers and we could start on time. She BLAMED US for why SHE didn't hand out the time line the night before. Almost all of our bridal party were on time so from 5-530 she could have handed out the time line. But she blamed us because once our trolley came to pick us up at 6:45 we needed to head out and that she was trying to find out information about where we were suppose to go in the morning and that the rehearsal didn't run the way it was suppose to. We did two run throughs. And yes we did have a friend preform the ceremony but she was also directing how things went. But once again that is OUR FAULT. Also the morning of she could have her or one of her helpers drop off the timeline ( because all of us were clueless ) We had a 6pm wedding and our hair and makeup started at 8 am. Which was confusing. My hair had fallen before the ceremony and SHE blamed my photographer for the time line and she said that's when we needed to get started. Well in fact after following up with my photographer she hasn't even talked to her until two weeks before the wedding. I have emails where she said we needed to start at 8 am and we asked her a couple of times why so early **** a month before she talked to the photographer *** and she said because we needed to be done by 2 for photos. I didn't think that we needed to micromanage my COORDINATOR because a handful of things that what went wrong with the DJ was the time line. And she did have a copy of everything because she was CCed onto the email about speeches and whatnot. Because all of the speeches were gone AFTER dinner. My favorite thing that went wrong was that we talked about having the wedding live streamed because a lot of people couldn't travel. But especially last minute my dad ended up in the hospital. Even though we had all of this set up IN ADVANCE 5 minutes I was about to walk down the aisle I had to ask her " don't you need my phone for the live stream?" Joy:" someone told me we weren't doing that because your dad wasn't doing well" ... EXCUSE me ? Neither me or my husband never said that NOR did we want that especially because of all the people who weren't able to come. And she wouldn't tell us who " told her that" nor did she double check with her PAYING clients. And her thing was " well we got it figured out in the end and the live stream went on" and the ONLY reason it happened because I has to REMIND her about everything before I walked down the aisle. Also, despite talking about decorations in detail. The pumpkins that were suppose to be lining that aisle were not there. The boutonnières never made it on the guys. Nor did my ring bearer have the carriage I made. Joy had a detailed packing list. Along with pictures of everything. All of the boxes were Labeled. Her excuse was " everything was so pretty and we didn't know " so you're telling me that my pictures and detailed packing list and labeled boxes weren't enough? She then said that we'll there were only enough pumpkins for the tables to which I told her yes and they were suppose to go down the aisle. I am sick of people saying no one noticed. I NOTICED. I look at the video of me on my wedding day and I am sickened because you see the annoyance on my face especially when I realize everything missing in the ceremony. Not only did I have a lot of personal stress but the people I paid 100s of dollars for and talked in detail with about how I want the venue to be set up was NOT how we discussed for 3 years ** yes 3 years ** I'm not sure why we hired the extra people to help her when she ended up having our guest help pack things up and bring them out to the uhaul afterwards. Also the guy who watched and took care of our dog left the poop bags on his leash when he wal
