  • "I couldn’t recommend Emi enough! She brings an unmatched level of professionalism, attention to detail, and positivity to every project she touches. She approaches each event with both structure and creativity, ensuring that every element is executed seamlessly from start to finish. She is not only highly organized and quick to respond, but she’s also an incredible team player who fosters genuine collaboration among vendors and clients alike. Her upbeat attitude and calm leadership set the tone for a productive and enjoyable work environment. What truly stands out about Emi is the way she becomes a true cheerleader for her clients. She advocates for their vision while maintaining clear communication and respect for everyone involved in the process. Working alongside Emi and her team is a pleasure every time. Her commitment to excellence, professionalism, and joyful spirit make her one of the best in the industry."

  • "Emi is nothing but amazing. She is very hard working. You can tell she cares deeply about every wedding and couple she works with. She quite literally saved my wedding day after our original wedding ghosted us. She stepped in with no hesitation and made me feel so comfortable leaving the day in her hands. She is such a pleasure to work with, I wish I had found her sooner. She is very communicative and responds in a timely manner or any questions you may have. As well as communication with all vendors. If anything went awry on my day, I had no idea because her and her team were and are amazing. I highly, highly recommend Emi to anyone who is looking for a stress free wedding day! (Or as stressless as it can be)"
