    MVP Wedding Vendor!

    Yena was such a valuable partner during my wedding. We did a full-day, cross-cultural wedding with multiple room flips throughout the day. Yena dreamed up a different floral look/color scheme for each ceremony and celebration, so that our guests were constantly WOW-ed each time they walked into the same room.

    More importantly, Yena was able to take my incoherent, half-baked ideas and suggestions and turn them into something vivid, breath-taking, and so so classy. She is a joy to work with and has a great eye for design. I trusted her opinion on everything -- florals, decor, table settings, even my wedding dress and hair/make-up! I also appreciated that she was extremely practical with my budget and helped me stay in the parameters of what I could and couldn't do.

    The flowers at our wedding were simply incredible. Our guests raved non-stop, and we will get to see Yena's creations immortalized in their photographs for years to come!

    Our Wedding flowers were Amazing!!! Beautiful and professional service!

    Amazing! What a fantastic job. Yena and her team completely blew our minds with the amazing displays they built and designed. Yena is a pro and will help use her expertise with putting together your dream floral arrangements for your wedding. I have been getting texts and calls non stop from my family about how much they loved our flowers at our wedding. And most importantly, my mom approved!

    Beyond expectations

    Yena is simply fabulous! She was so lovely to work with. The venue looked amazing -- the flower creations were gorgeous and she guided us in choosing linens, the escort table, and the Chuppah with ease. Her team was wonderful setting up all the installations. My daughter's wedding was truly spectular.

    Where do I even begin with Yena?! I am still so BLOWN AWAY!!!!!! I have never met a more talented, creative, passionate florist. For a unique wedding like mine, she took in my vision for what I wanted and beyond exceeded. Flowers/vases/candles/etc. - that is what creates a wedding, the feel of a wedding, gives it an element of romance. My venue, The Glasshouses was a blank canvas for Yena, so ultimately what she created is what made the rooms so absolutely special, luxurious and exquisite. I would highly recommend Yena to anyone! Plus she's so much fun to work and plan with!!!!

    Perhaps one of the most important parts of a wedding (for me) is the floral décor- it is very contingent upon personal taste, and it is sometimes difficult to convey what “vision” you might want. When I looked at Yena’s work from prior weddings and events she had done, I knew that I had found someone with superb and impeccable taste. My convictions were only furthered when I met Yena face-to-face. Not only was she patient with me as I tried to explain what I wanted, but she also brought in her own ideas that completed the picture.

    On the morning of our wedding I was speechless at how beautiful the bouquets looked- they were exactly what I had described and more. This was only eclipsed by the way in which she decorated the venue at the NYBG. My husband and I were able to take a moment and look at the astoundingly beautiful way in which she transformed the space into something of our own. It was an absolute dream. Yena, thank you again for making our wedding perfect!

    Yena is unbelievable. She did both our rehearsal dinner and wedding. I knew when I met her that she would be our florist because she has a great attention to detail but also a creative eye like no other florist I've ever worked with. I told her the "feeling" I was going for and she was able to make it happen. All of our guests are still talking about how they felt they were dining under a magical forest. I also loved working with Yena because she was able to be realistic with my budget and tell me what I could and couldn't do. She made the planning process very easy with detailed pictures and diagrams and went on countless walk throughs with me. But the main reason I loved working with her is because she is a true artist. She has a keen sense for color, scale, detail and dimension.

    YENA AND HER TEAM ARE AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!

    From the beginning, Yena understood my vision and was able to give many great suggestions to build on my vision. It was her idea to bring in the tall green branches to bring height into the reception and it really made the space more intimate and romantic. The floral pieces that ran along the banquet tables were stunning and all colors/flowers I have dreamed of. I initially told Yena I wanted garland, and she instead did this style (see pics) and it looked WAY better than garland. She also brought in various floating candles for the tables and lanterns to run along the aisle. I have had guests contact me and ask who my florist was because of how amazing everything was. She really knows what she is doing, you will be making the best decision having Yena be the floral designer for your special event!

    Yena did the florals for my June wedding and she was amazing! She completley understood my vision from day one and worked very closely with me along the way to make sure every detail was what I wanted! She also does a great job of offering her professional advice and making suggestions without taking away what from what you want. Highly recommend!!!

    If there was ever a florist that could understand your vision after only a few words it is Yena Jung. From the moment that we met she knew exactly what we wanted and executed everything better than I ever could have imagined. She arranged the flowers for not only our wedding but also the bridal shower and rehearsal dinner. All the arrangements were equally beautiful and amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. There are no words to describe how beautiful her work is and how amazing her team was. I would recommend Yena to anyone! Her work truly speaks for itself. She transformed all of our rooms with her elegant floral arrangements, attention to detail, and true talent. I was truly blown away by all she did, it was perfect, and her work made our day that much more special! Hire her, it will be one of the best decisions you make!! Thank you Yena!

    Yena did a spectacular job for my wedding. I gave her some challenging wedding colors - navy, cream and gold - and her solutions through our chuppah and flowers and even napkins and table cloths were elegant and beautiful - I was in love with how our room looked. She has exceptional attention to detail. I hope I have an excuse to cross paths with her again!

    Yena is amazing! Such a pleasure to work with and incredibly creative and responsive to your style/interests/budget. I was blown away by how easily we were able to come up with some ideas for décor and flowers based on my limited input and a few pictures. I was so happy with everything Yena did and just really liked working with her.

    Yena is a true artist and amazing talent! My husband and I met Yena and instantly felt assured by her knowledge, organization, and professionalism. In the months leading up to our wedding, Yena was consistently friendly, responsive, and flexible with our budget. As for the wedding day, words can not express our gratitude! Yena understood our vision and worked with her team to create absolute magic for our garden wedding! Every element was completed with thought, care, and cohesion. We received so many compliments on our flowers and I loved my bouquet so much that I took it with me on my honeymoon! Thank you By Yena Designs for helping to create the most gorgeous atmosphere for our wedding day! For those searching for a florist, you can stop now. You won't regret it!

    On behalf of my husband Patrick and I we profusely thank you Yena for creating a stunning and spectacular overall look and feel for our wedding. Your original concepts and designs went above and beyond wildest expectations. The room was simply breathtaking, masculine, elegant, romantic -- from the illuminated candles, multi level tiered glass vases and reflective boxes to the delicate placement of white rose petals, to your eye catching, flattering and gorgeous creations we had the privilege of wearing on our tuxedos as we walked down the aisle, your incredible bouquet you hand designed for Patrick's maid of honor, every corner of the room came alive because of your enormous talent, care, love and attention to detail. We are forever grateful that you allowed us, and our ceremony, to be a canvas for you to create unforgettable images and to display your rich, exquisite artistry. Thank you again, Yena. Everyone is still talking to us about how beautiful the room looked, lovingly calling it the "wedding of the century" and how our wedding was "the most gorgeous," all thanks to you and your entire team. You absolutely made our dream wedding come true and we are so deeply grateful and moved beyond words. Karl + Patrick

    Choosing Yena was one of the best decisions I made for our wedding. Yena has great taste, quickly got a sense of my style and what we'd like for our wedding, and was very organized, responsive, and attentive. She was extraordinarily helpful, and offered suggestions and ideas for the wedding beyond floral design. We were so pleased with our flowers and her designs -- everything was beautiful and we received numerous compliments. I would absolutely recommend her!

    Yena was such a pleasure to work with and did an AMAZING job! She made my wedding vision become a reality! It was exactly what I dreamt of and more. She knows exactly what her clients want and makes it happen. From the ceremony aisle decor, to the table centerpieces, she pays such close attention to detail, that you don't have to worry for a second that she won't make it beautiful. She is very hardworking, professional and affable. I would definitely recommend her for your floral and design needs!

    By Yena Designs conceptualized and delivered us the most magical decor for our wedding!

    We came into the wedding process knowing so little about flowers and decor, and we really could not visualize what we wanted. When we met with Yena, she was immediately able to guide us in formulating the decor for our big day by showing us what would enhance the architecture of the space. Yena's design was creative, modern and elegant--everything we had wanted for our New York City wedding. She was incredibly responsive throughout the process, working with our families through several iterations of our concept board until we got the right colors and feel, and coordinating her designs with our lighting vendor. She went above and beyond by joining my mother-in-law and I on a shopping trip to find the perfect textile accents for our table settings. I really value that Yena has an impeccable eye for design that is well-balanced with her practical sensibility.

    While we knew that Yena had worked with us to figure out the flowers and the colors, we still were entirely blown away by her execution when the day came. Some brides cry when they see their groom, but I cried when I saw the room transformed for our first ceremony. And each successive room flip was even more beautiful and impressive. All her flowers were elegant and impactful, and many of our guests said it was the most beautiful wedding they had ever attended. Yena really gave us the perfect wedding of our dreams!

    Yena was very helpful since the beginning of the planning process. I could tell from our first conversation that she is very organized and has a great understanding of all of the different types of flowers. I also appreciated that she was accommodating to my busy work schedule and was able to meet later in the afternoon for meetings. She is a great listener and the floral arrangements for my wedding were everything I wanted!

    As an Event Manager at a popular Manhattan venue, I have my fair pick of preferred vendors but I only recommend the best! I never have to worry when I put my clients in Yena's hands. I have worked with Yena for the past 8 years for weddings, Mitzvahs and corporate events. She is professional, honest and amazing to work with. Her taste is impeccable and her work is truly better than the rest. She is so knowledgeable and creative and LOVES what she does. Nothing is better than working with someone who loves their job and takes great care of their clients. Look no further! Yena is truly the best in the biz!

    Yena created an incredible floral design for our wedding celebration at Le Bernardin Privé. Her attention to detail to ensure the entire space was impeccable was executed to perfection. All of our guests commented on all the beautiful arrangements from the main dining table to the center floral arrangement separating the two rooms to the floating candle installation – each creating such a beautiful visual display of elegance.

    You cannot go past By Yena Designs!!!!
