Stanislav Z. Sent on 09/10/2024Best investment ever!
If you’re even thinking about it, just do it! Shing Weddings was by far the best decision we made for our wedding. Weddings can be costly - specifically when you think of not only the money you spend but the time intensive process of planning it all. Eva was our lead planner for our wedding (process - and it was a process!). The amount of dedication, time and work she put into it was amazing. I plan events for work and like to think that I am good at what I do, however, after seeing the level of detail and organization Eva had, I realized I need to implement more of that into my life! There are so many little details that you don’t think of until someone else brings it up, from pens for signing to card boxes to who is going to do what and when. Eva made the entire process of planning a wedding (almost) stress free! She took our budget and ran with it, and we did not go over budget at all - even with all the last minute details we decided to add in. She organized not only all the vendors, but helped create a script for my friend / MC and all of our wedding party. Eva helped to manage all the little details - even when it came to our families and the surprises they threw our way. After watching other friends plan weddings and the stress they had, I can honestly say that I felt completely at ease and felt like I only needed to make the big decisions and the rest was handled for us.
On our actual wedding day, we had Eva, Lisa and Alex help to navigate the day and again, keep us stress free (as well as hydrated and pampered!) We are immensely grateful that we were fully able to be present at and enjoy every moment of our wedding day without having to worry about any of the details. They handled all the surprises from our family with ease and the entire day went by what seemed to be seamlessly! Not to mention they kept us on time, at ease and hydrated throughout the day. There are so many things Eva and team did for us not only on our wedding day, but before, and AFTER was well! I cannot imagine having to go through this process without them. I cannot recommend Eva and Shing Weddings enough! Again, if you’re even contemplating them, don’t think twice. It is 100% worth the investment and I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone I know who is getting married! -

Best Decision Ever!
Shing Weddings was by no doubt one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day! Eva was our coordinator from the last several weeks leading up, and let me just say the amount of work she put in for us was phenomenal. Daniel and I pride ourselves in being hardcore planners and staying very organized, but let me tell you, there are SOOOOO many minute details and wedding-specific things that unless you have first-hand experience, you would have NO idea you needed. She swooped in and sent probably over a hundred emails for us, organized briefings to our wedding party and MCs, and crafted a super detailed timeline (that has also gone through a gazillion renditions because of all the micro changes that have a domino effect). In the last few weeks, all our friends and coworkers have mentioned we look scarily too chill for being so close to the wedding day, and we barely even took any days off because we simply didn't feel the need to - we owe it all to Eva!
On our actual day, we were so lucky to have Eva, Lisa, Crystal and Jon help manage our day. They were sooo helpful throughout and I never felt more pampered and taken care of! We are so so so grateful to them for allowing us (and all our wedding party, MCs, and family) to be fully present in each moment without a single worry. They handled unpredictable situations (ie. bee situation with the arbour) so smoothly, advocating for our vision of an outdoor ceremony, and the entire day couldn't have gone smoother! We were always on time or even ahead of schedule and I always had access to my phone and lipstick, without the risk of misplacing it ever! There are a gazillion big and small things that would be too too long to list here, but trust me when I say I couldn't have imagined the day without any one of them. All our friends really love the Shing team and we miss them so much already!!! :') -

From our first meeting with Michelle, we knew that we would be in good hands. We booked Michelle and her team from Shing Weddings a year in advance of our wedding, and it was worth every penny. My husband and I both live in the Bay Area and are super busy with work, so we needed someone we could depend on and who could recommend good vendors for us. We booked the full wedding planning package for our 90+ guest wedding, and we're so thankful that we did.
From the start, Michelle was warm, communicative, and knowledgeable. She recommended great vendors and organized everything into spreadsheets, and she sent frequent reminders throughout the year for us to complete our "homework" items. It's clear that Shing Weddings has an amazing reputation in the wedding industry, as all of our vendors were very happy to work with them. Michelle is fluent in both Mandarin and English, which was very helpful for our bilingual wedding, and she guided us through the traditional Chinese tea ceremony as well. She was super responsive and patient with our questions, and we felt like we were in great hands leading up to the wedding.
The day of the wedding far exceeded our wildest dreams thanks to the Shing Weddings team. Michelle, Lisa, Eva, and Jon were there to pamper us throughout the day, and we didn't have to lift a finger. The schedule proceeded flawlessly, perfectly on time, and we didn't feel a single moment of stress! The Shing Weddings team made sure we were hydrated, well fed, and well dressed at all times, and they are the primary reason that we were able to kick back and completely enjoy our wedding day with our family and friends. Our guests were blown away by how smoothly the day proceeded, and we got so many compliments for the Shing Weddings team.
If you're thinking of hiring a wedding planner, look no further!! Shing Weddings is one of the best investments we've made, and we cannot recommend Michelle and the entire team strongly enough. Thank you so much for making our wedding the best day ever! -

We can’t say enough great things about Shing Weddings! From the very first meeting, their team impressed us with their professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail. They took our vision and turned it into reality - maybe even better than we had imagined!
On the day our wedding, everything went flawlessly. The team was super organized, calm, and really on top of everything, which made us feel so relaxed. We felt flow of events and venue was perfectly planned - and do
Shing Weddings is hands down the best! We loved having their awesome energy with us on our big day—it made everything so much more fun! -

Highly highly highly recommend Shing Weddings for your wedding day! We did the full service planning and it was so worth it; we keep ourselves busy (travels, job changes) and are based in NYC so we knew we needed someone we could trust for our 240 person wedding. We didn’t feel stressed during the planning process and always looked forward to our calls with Eva! The vendor selection process went smoothly as we were presented just a few but great options based on their experience. Eva rolled with all of the last minute changes and on the day, we felt so taken care of by Eva, Lisa, Erika, Sarah, and Jon. Our guests kept commenting on the great food (Fairmont Pacific Rim), decor, DJ, quartet, lion dancers, Photo Booth, and how nice our photographers were. I could tell the vendors liked working with Shing Weddings as well! We would change nothing about our wedding day and Eva even stepped into organize our morning after brunch the next day. Just choose Shing Weddings for your day! -

Thank you Eva, Lisa, Jon, Alex, Crystal, and Sarah!
Our wedding day went smoothly thanks to the incredible day-of-coordinator team led by Eva! Eva's attentiveness and organization shone through from the moment we started working with her before the wedding day. She managed all vendor communications and ensured everyone knew the schedule, ironing out the nitty-gritty details with us well in advance. On the big day, Eva and her team—Jon, Alex, Crystal, and Sarah—were phenomenal, taking care of every detail so we could focus on our wedding. They were also very attentive to the guests. Eva and Jon stayed with us until the end, past midnight, ensuring both we and our family members got back to the hotel safely. Even post-wedding, Eva continued to help us close all the loose ends. We felt truly cared for and cannot recommend Eva and Shing Wedding highly enough! -
