  Perfection

  Iris and her team are nothing short of perfection. We can’t adequately explain how talented, professional, artistic, aesthetic, organized, accommodating, responsive, patient, calming, helpful and kind Iris is. She helped create the most beautiful, chic, modern city wedding of our dreams and pulled it off effortlessly, with a talented eye for design and detail. We truly can’t imagine our day without Iris and her entire team helping us through every moment. They took the weight of wedding stress off our shoulders and we were able to have the most magical day. It was a dream working with Iris and we cannot recommend her enough. You will be in the most capable hands. Thank you Iris!!!

  Above and beyond- nothing less

  It's impossible to overstate just how important Iris was for our wedding day. We can't say it enough- we wouldn't have been able to organize a wedding a fraction as beautiful as she did on our own. We feel like her design and plans matched our ideal day perfectly, and made the whole process of managing vendors just so easy. Aside from monthly meetings, there was very little for us to follow up on or stress about. Iris saved us from a countless number of hours researching, calling, emailing, and following up- which made the day itself so much more beautiful. She remained flexible, incredibly open to feedback and input, and through the past 1.5+ years of planning, helped us navigate all of the challenges that were put in front of us.
  
  We know that there was an immense amount of work done in the background that we weren't even aware of. Because of Iris, we were able to put together what we feel was a world-class group of vendors! Though our ceremony was small, we felt like we were surrounded by great friends in our vendors. We couldn't have asked for a more thoughtful and experienced planner, and as SO happy that we chose Blue Lavender Events' full planning package. We would recommend Iris and her team to -anyone- in a heartbeat.

  Crème de la crème!

  My husband and I feel very lucky to have had Blue Lavender Events for Full Planning. We cannot express the full scale of our gratitude. Our dream was to have the wedding ceremony and tented reception take place on my parents' backyard. Iris delivered a custom and unforgettable celebration. It was above and beyond anything we could dream of!
  
  The day was complicated logistically because we had a larger guest count and we needed to import and export everything a traditional wedding venue would have. This includes three tents, tables, a kitchen, washrooms, electricity, security, backup rain plan, sound system and garbage disposal. We had four separate spaces that needed to be set up (ceremony, cocktails, dinner tent and entertainment tent). Set-up started three days before the wedding and teardown finished two days after. Iris and her amazing assistant Valary led all vendor site visits. She prepared customized floorplans, schedules, timelines, spreadsheets for electricity requirements, and other organisational activities for all vendors. She also had a comprehensive wedding folder for us, was always mindful of our budget, and spotted unnecessary costs. She went through all our vendor contracts before we signed to make sure our best interests were looked after. Iris also facilitated and sourced our more custom requests, such as a ramen bar and fresh mini-doughnut stand.
  
  We did not hire a full-scale decorator because we found Iris understood our vision the best. She very graciously and naturally absorbed the role of our decorator in addition to being our wedding planner! She put together a gorgeous design plan for our wedding and sourced all the components we loved. She has great taste and we had a lot of fun planning while we were being shielded from the tedious logistical issues.
  
  Most of all, Iris and Valary were always pleasant, responded quickly to emails, and had great relationships with the vendors. In a number of emails I was CCed on, the vendors thanked Iris and Valary for being such a pleasure to work with. Valary has a wonderful "can-do" attitude and is very thoughtful. Iris is so genuine, sharp and looked out for us, our guests and the vendors. On the wedding day Iris left her Blue Lavender Events mark and made sure every detail was lovingly styled. Everything was so beautiful I could not believe my eyes!
  
  The wedding itself was perfect and guests commented on how smooth and magical the day was. Someone said she felt like she was in a movie, another in a Korean drama, and another felt like an extra on a movie set because everything was so surreal. Iris made sure that our guests' journey from beginning to end was curated. Her team was very lovely as well. I had made a few elements for the wedding and they set everything up perfectly. They also made sure that the bridal party was hydrated, fed, relaxed and updated on where we were on the timeline. I am very touched by Iris and Valary's generosity and dedication to making sure our wedding was a beautiful day. Iris has such a big heart and everyone around her can't help but feel her excitement and love for what she does. She gave us the best day of our life!

  Say "Yes" to BLE

  When my husband and I were planning for our wedding we got really overwhelmed. We didn't know where to begin, so we decided to hire BLE! Iris created a rustic theme for our wedding and found the perfect venue for us. She recommended reputable vendors for us to choose from and attended all the vendor meetings with us.
  
  When her associate Valary took over, the transition was seamless. Valary executed Iris's unique vision for our wedding and did a great job coordinating all the wedding details. The BLE team made the wedding flow smoothly and we can't thank them enough for making our special day so memorable!!
  
  Communication was open throughout the whole process. They responded quickly to emails. Both Iris and Valary are very detail oriented and organized. We definitely recommend BLE!

  As a gay couple, it was important for us to find the right planner. Iris made sure every interaction was full of the joy and excitement you should feel while planning your wedding while being free from assumptions or traditional recommendations. We immediately felt comfortable working with her and trusted her from day one. She helped make our vision a reality and our day was perfection.
  
  Iris helped us pick our venue which was a HUGE help. Her style consultation ensured we discussed what we wanted our day to be and helped us stay on track with our decisions. Her friendly reminders are necessary and you will need them!
  
  Based on the package we had, her services kicked in a few weeks out from our wedding. She took all of our vendor info and details and ran with it. Her staff are friendly and talented and helped us make some key decor decisions.
  
  On the day of, she had itineraries for all parties. This was integral to a smooth & stress-free day. Iris is cool under pressure, a kind and caring individual but yet firm and gets things done. She is solution-oriented and saved our sanity!
  
  Wedding planners can be an expensive part of your budget. For us, we knew we needed one as we are very busy. Blue Lavender Events provides top-notch quality and care, an impeccable creative vision and a premium level of service that makes for a flawless and stress-free experience. We would highly recommend working with BLE! Thanks for everything, Iris! We loved working with you- you're a gem. - Jen & Becca

  We hired Iris Li of Blue Lavender events for her month of coordination services – but let me tell you it’s way more than just a month that she assists you with. We had two in-person meetings (including one site visit) with her before our big day to go over logistics and anything else that was needed. Through it all, she was professional, knowledgeable and most of all helpful leading up to the big day. We knew we wanted the weeks leading up to our wedding and the day of to be stress-free – and we have Iris to thank for helping us with every single detail! Things we didn’t even think of for our day, Iris knew what was needed and got them done. She created a detailed and comprehensive timeline for both of us, the bridal party and both sets of parents. She was always on top of things – emailing us a few days before to remind us of upcoming vendor payments, a packing list of items we shouldn’t forget etc. On the day, Iris and her team were INCREDIBLE! We had guests comment on how smoothly the evening went. BLE went above and beyond to check-in with us throughout various points of the day – even to bring crazy glue when something broke, chapstick for my husband and helping guests get to where they needed to be. We can’t thank Iris and the BLE team enough for everything and making our wedding run as smoothly as it did!

  The best wedding advice I've received and experienced firsthand myself is to hire a coordinator. Since I had visions for my wedding already, I wanted to have it all tie together at the end with month of coordination to take it off my hands. Having Blue Lavender team with me for the last month was seriously the best decision. Iris was very responsive and and took charge of all the details I had planned flawlessly from the first meeting onto the wedding day. They executed my vision better than I could have dreamed and really have a great eye, no matter the style of bride you are! Then there's the best part of letting them handle the best day ever as we enjoyed the day with each other and our guests to the fullest! I didn't have to worry about a single thing and it really was the best day ever thanks to Blue Lavender team!

  Dear Iris!!!
  
  Justin and I had the most magical wedding day we could have ever dreamed of!
  
  Thank you so much for everything you did to make our day completely stress free and a huge success!
  
  You were such a key person for us throughout the lead up to the wedding. Since meeting you, you inspired us so much. You helped us see wedding planning as an opportunity to be creative & personalize things. Anytime our families worried & stressed over things, we always reassured them we could check with our planner Iris as she would know and that put us all at ease. Your organized and meticulous approach and your genuinely positive nature, made the whole wedding planning process manageable and also fun!
  
  You really helped us with our vision/decor/florals/details. The whole decor piece seemed overwhelming. We didn't know where to start. You encouraged us to work on collecting photos of things we liked, asked us questions to figure out our style, and connected us with such wonderful & talented vendors.
  
  In the weeks before the wedding you relieved us of so much stress knowing you were aware of every single detail, creating the most comprehensive timeline, & always being 2 steps ahead with everything. And then on our big day you & your team were just incredible. Setting all our decor & details so beautifully, bringing us water/drinks throughout the day, having the day flow so seamlessly, and genuinely caring about us & our guests.
  
  You had a wonderful impact on us as we begin our marriage together. We just can't thank you enough!
  
  Sincerely,
  Laura & Justin

  If you want to have to a fun jaw-dropping wedding that your guests will be talking about for years to come, make sure to hire Iris and her Blue Lavender Events team. Iris delivered the exact look and feel for the wedding that we were going for. She made great suggestions and ensured that both we and our guests had a great time. The best part is that the whole planning process was stress free and Iris made us feel cool as a cucumber leading up to the big day. The only downside is that our wedding is done and we'll miss speaking with Iris. Thank you Iris for all of your help and we couldn't have asked for a better wedding!!!!!
