ShingWeddings is a MUST - best of the best!
I first saw Shing Weddings team in action when our friends got married and l was already blown away by the team's efficiency and had never seen a wedding so organized and calm, ever. Having witnessed that, when it came time for my own wedding, l didn't want anyone else to be our wedding planner. Throughout the planning process, Michelle went above and beyond to help us with all our concerns and issues and if our proposed plan for some things sounded ridiculous (like the music with separate audio system from a third party company, no DJ and play music from spotify etc), Michelle would politely and honestly tell us it's probably not a good idea and suggested way better things, which we really appreciate. Not only that, Michelle recommended some vendors for us that were also just as amazing to communicate with as the SW team to help make our day smoother. Every time l tell our other vendors that ShingWeddings is our wedding planner, we would always hear "oh then you do not need to worry at all, Lisa and Michelle are absolutely amazing and are our favorite vendor to work with".
On the wedding day, there was a team of 4 - Lisa/Michelle/Eva/Jon and as soon as they arrived, they got to work right away. We had a problem with the flower arch and Michelle asked what l wanted to do and she told me not to worry, she will oversee to the problem and told me to rest for another 10min before lunch is ready. We had a bit of time so we went to peek at the decor and was going to set up some fairy lights on the guest table and Jon ran over and told us to let him take care of it and we should rest in the lounge downstairs to wait for lunch before things start to get busy for us. To be honest, l think there were probably other little things that the team dealt with that we didn't even know about.
The team (Lisa/Michelle/Eva/Jon) was constantly 3 steps ahead of us, even the tiniest details, like me taking breaks wearing my runners instead of heels during photos. Eva always had my runners near her and l never had to once ask for it and she was also constantly making sure l was hydrated enough. The team also had an earpiece and intercom system between the 4 of them and whenever the 2 of us and my MOH and bestman left their sight even for just a minute, they communicate to each other right away where they are going so they knew exactly where we were in case we were needed somewhere. Just as l'm wondering what's next, Eva or Michelle would tell us right now "A" is happening, in a bit "B" will be next. I had a big extended family so all the group photo sessions would have been a nightmare if we didn't have one of them hurdle the group together, another posing everybody properly then giving our photographer the ok, photographer snaps the pictures, gives us the thumbs up and by then, the team already had the next group ready to go.
There were some extra groups for photos after the ceremony or extra groups we added for the chinese tea ceremony and even with all these changes, the team embraced the changes so calmly and we still stayed right on time and l am still shocked 3 days after the wedding that we weren't delayed and ALL our relatives and guests commented that Shing Weddings' team was very professional. The wedding planning process definitely is part of the value with ShingWeddings but to be able to execute the actual day according to the timeline takes a mastermind, if not mastermindS.
We were so taken care of the second the team arrived and all our parents, relatives and guests were also blown away by your team's efficiency, we cannot thank you enough. I was shocked that we got to sit and rest in between here and there. The day went very smoothly, we will always remember this day as relaxing and enjoyable, not chaotic as we expected our big day to be. You guys have such a tough job and the whole team did such a fabulous job and with such ease, l will absolutely recommend your team to any of my friends that is planning a wedding. Your team was worth every single penny and l am so glad ShingWeddings was part of our day!
