Amazing experience planning a wedding at Terranea with Master Plans

Yingka, Samiyah and the whole team was amazing and created a wedding that ended up being beyond my wildest dreams at Terranea. Yingka (and her team) responds to any call, text, or email within minutes or very soon after! As a starting point, my venue provided several "preferred" vendors. When I reached out to many of the vendors, Yingka was the first to respond and was so open and welcoming. She made me feel comfortable and wanted to know what I envisioned for my wedding and what she could do to make it happen. Throughout the process, I received many recommendations, including which vendors to use for photography, videography, florals, etc. I am so grateful that I worked with vendors Yingka was familiar with and recommended, because everything was perfect. Our wedding was elevated because of Master Plans, and everything could not have been smoother!

The entire team displayed kindness, professionalism and positivity. While wedding planning might be stressful, the whole team made me feel like everything was taken care of from beginning to end.

Great and EASY service

Never having been married before, I had no idea what a wedding planner did and to this day I am not sure all the work they did behind the scenes. That said, these guys were CLUTCH leading up to the wedding. To start, they had knowledge of and relationships with multiple vendors that we actually did end up going with (including our florist) and because they knew what it was we were looking for, they were able to personalize the offerings to us. As we started getting closer to the actual wedding date, they slowly started assembling all the necessary stuffs including the vendor contracts and contact numbers, and they helped me navigate a situation with a vendor that was potentially fraudulent. Their impact was especially evident in the days leading up to the wedding, where they had entire timelines created, and come our wedding day, they were essential in ensuring everyone was where they needed to be and when they needed to be there, even helping our photographer get shots after the ceremony. Yingka and Fei were tremendous throughout the entire process, responding exceedingly quickly to any questions we had and ensuring everything was as we imagined it at the start of planning. For the price, the services they offered was extraordinary and we are super happy to have gone with them.

Best Wedding Planning Team!

I cannot recommend Master Plan Events enough for their exceptional wedding planning services. From the very beginning of the wedding process, Yingka and her team were an absolute delight to work with. They made every step, from designing the wedding to planning it, an enjoyable and stress free experience.

When it came to the design aspect, I provided them with all of my inspiration pictures, and they went above and beyond by creating various mock-ups for me to choose from. Their ability to capture and execute my vision for the day was truly remarkable. The end result was a wedding that was everything I had ever imagined and more. It was breathtakingly beautiful in every way.

On the day of the wedding and leading up to it, Mast Plan Events ensured everything went off without a hitch. Every detail was meticulously planned and executed to perfection. They took care of aspects I hadn't even considered, like the color of the lights. They really ensured that every element of the day was flawless. I was able to just enjoy the day and soak everything in.

Thank you to Yingka and her incredible team (Fei, Savannah, Samiyah), my wedding day was smooth, stunning, and utterly unforgettable. If you're looking for a wedding planner who will exceed your expectations and create the wedding of your dreams, look no further. They are truly the best in the business.
