Full service is worth it! Yingka & the talented team at MPE planned and beautifully executed my wedding this past weekend. Yingka made my vision for a clean, modern, chic & intimate wedding a true reality. I hired her to plan our entire wedding (ambiance, flowers, vendor contracts, budget etc) and it was worth every single penny. I didn’t have to worry and spend time looking for, or negotiating with any vendors. We simply set a budget for her and went over what our “vision” for the wedding was, and her team handled it from there! On the day of the wedding I felt completely relaxed, excited and so happy - not a worry in the world knowing MPE was handling everything. While I was getting ready her team was setting everything up. I wasn’t bothered with minor questions and I was able to really enjoy my time with my sisters a and friends as we got ready. (Honestly, as triet as it may sound, the day goes by so fast that you really want to cherish the moments you have to r... Read moreeally enjoy each minute of it!) Yingka scheduled our wedding day perfectly so my husband and I were actually able to enjoy our wedding! We mingled with our guests during cocktail hour and we ate each of the 3 courses served during the reception! After the event MPEs team packed up everything and made sure our belongings (& gifts) were safely packed up and in our hotel room. The entire event was executed so perfectly and the team was so thoughtful throughout our planning process. I couldn’t have dreamed of a more perfect day and it wouldn’t have happened without them

My new wife and I hired Yingka for coordinating, decor, and flowers. I was initially very hesitant on locking in one company for all three. Yingka hit a home run. Personally, I couldn’t have envisioned a more perfect day she put on for us. Her taste in style was what really matched with our wedding theme. The flowers were executed perfectly and her experience with the venue was what really made the whole look flow. She made sure she could translate our themes into a practical look without looking over the top or tacky. She is very friendly and met with us multiple times when we had questions. When it comes to coordinating she is a beast! She knows how to get a timeline enforced and that was what made us as a couple so relaxed when she made sure all vendors were meeting our needs. The entire event she guided us in a timely manner all the way up to the grand exit. All in all...Hire her now!

great work!!!! Very nice job....keep it up!!

I cannot say enough good things about Yingka, Taylor & QT! They are the reason I still have my sanity! We hired Yingka & her team as the "day of" coordinators to pull together all the threads that were getting hopelessly tangled. The women of Master Plans Events and Design really are "masters" - they took care of so many little details & dealt with any difficulties with such calm efficiency that I was able to totally enjoy my daughter's wedding! Thank you!

If I could give Master Plans Events & Designs 10 stars, I would. I cannot begin to express my gratitude, appreciation, and satisfaction with their service. They are so organized, professional, and knowledgeable - everything you need from a wedding planning team. I hired MPE for both florals and for day of wedding coordination. To say that they delivered as expected is truly an understatement. They went above and beyond my expectations, and I am so grateful (and relieved) that we hired them. Our wedding was held at one of those venues where you have to bring EVERYTHING in: tables, chairs, lights, linens, catering, alcohol, etc. For that very reason, I knew from the start it was imperative we hire an experienced wedding coordinator who was both friendly (so they don't drive away our vendors) yet in control. With over a decade of experience, Yingka and her team are everything we could have ever hoped for! I told Yingka what I had envisioned for our wedding - rustic, boho chic, ... Read moreand romantic. I purchased wood slices, mason jars, and made burlap table number tags for our centerpieces, and handed them all to Yingka's team a few weeks in advance. On the day of, they set everything up for me, and I was so amazed at how flawless the execution was. We also ordered all of our flowers from MPE. Yingka is a great listener, is a visionary, and pays close attention to detail, so the flowers turned out BETTER than I had expected them to. The bridal and bridesmaids' bouquets turned out so beautifully. I couldn't stop saying "WOW" for thirty minutes straight. Our centerpieces looked amazing too. The baby breaths and mini pink roses added the perfect rustic touch to our boho chic theme. I was asked by multiple people why I was so calm throughout the wedding planning process and on wedding day, and the reason is because I knew I had an amazing team that I could trust and depend on to execute on wedding day. MPE, from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!

Planning one of the most relevant days of your life is no easy task, executing it in pure excellence is ambitious. With the guidance and expertise of the Master Plans Events team, turning that ordinary day into extraordinary happened in the blink of an eye, almost overnight, and seemingly effortless (which was so far from our reality). Like every love crazed lady on her special day, ours was filled with all good things and every hiccup imaginable. Yingka, Taylor, and Quynh Anh made those hiccups either disappear or dressed them in flowers so that nothing else mattered. To envision the most complete day, combined with only perfect moments, sprinkled with flawless bouquets, surrounded by a room full of love, family, and friends, classifies as the ultimate undertaking. From initial chat to altar and altar to donut tower, it was a success. My husband and I consider our entire experience with the ladies of Master Plans unmatchable. It was the truest gift of a lifetime. Thank you!!

Dear brides and grooms , I highly recommend you Yingka 's team !!! Very proffesional , prompt , attentive and details oriented ! I don't know many people in California and I choosed Yingka with Master Plans based on reviews and comments from other brides ... Taylor and Jen also did a fantastic job and always attentive and prompt ! I didn't know she was doing flowers also, since i have already contacted other vendor ( I was very happy with also )... We are a couple from Florida and our wedding took place at Rancho Palos Verdes - Trump National California, so everything was done via mails and phone calls ...Yingka was the sweetest person to work with and she is the one helping you with many ideas, she will guide you to all steps to make sure your wedding will be unforgetable ! She even helped me with my litlle crying boy on my wedding day ...she helped me get to dressed (my bridesmaids were too busy :-)) ) and she was ensuring i was looking good at all times ....what ...

I worked with Yingka and Jen on flower arrangements for my wedding (not any of their other events services, so I can't speak to that). Master Plans Evens came highly recommended from a friend, and from the beginning she was very responsive and I thought the pricing was very fair for the florals. Yingka answered my millions of questions and changes over the course of the several months we worked together. She worked within my budget, offering substitutions with less expensive flowers to keep the costs down. Then on my wedding day, the flowers turned out to be SO beautiful and exactly what I had in mind! Everything turned out perfectly and I couldn't have been happier with how everything looked. I highly recommend Master Plans for your wedding florals!

After calling through a list of preferred vendors, Yingka and her team beyond fit best in being a part of my wedding. She was the only one I truly felt was excited about my wedding and I hadn't even met her yet! She has also been really flexible with my crazy schedule and being on the east coast. I think this is one of the most important vendors to consider during a wedding and that their personality and desire to make the day special is beyond important. I have no doubts that Master Plans Events will be the perfect glue for the production of my big day!

LeAnn and Yingka were outstanding. When we started the process the things we were looking for were planners with experience to ensure that our planning covered all items needed for our wedding and that on the day of the event we had an owner to keep everything moving in the right direction. We got so much more out of Master Plans Events. Le Ann was everywhere day of the wedding and she was in complete control of everything and because of her everything occurred as we expected. She ensured our day was so wonderful even with the last minute changes that we had as late as the night before. I was not a believe initially about the the need for a planner but after working with LeAnn I am definitely a believer. The best way I can put it is if you want a stress free wedding then you must have Master Plans Events lead your event- they made our day memorable in the most positive way ever. Thank you LeAnn !!!!!

Malinda was our day of coordinator for our La Canada Flintridge Country Club wedding in April 2015. It is difficult to put into words how absolutely amazing she was!! She presented herself in such a put together and professional way - I immediately felt comfort knowing she was on my team! She and her Assistant took care of my needs before I even knew I needed them. Prior to the event she emailed me to nail down specific details to ensure the day flowed smoothly. Honestly we could not be happier! She was pleasant as she interacted with our guests and handled major Ceremony/Reception details (ceremony seating, timing of walking down the aisle, reception time line, ensuring we had all our personal belongings like our engraved toasting flutes etc etc etc) We are beyond impressed and grateful to have had such a lovely coordinator that made our day flow perfectly! Thank you Malinda!!

I am so thankful that my venue (Los Verdes Golf Course) worked with Master Plans events for event coordination. Working with Yingka was an absolute delight! She was incredible in responding to emails, professionalism and making everything run smoothly the day of. Because of her, I had no idea about some glitches that came about the day of. I was able to relax and enjoy my special day. She quickly came up with a backup plan for the cake topper (which I forgot to bring), and no on even noticed anything was missing from the cake. :) If I would do it again, I would hire Yingka for the full event coordination package.

Hiring Master-Plans events for our flowers was the BEST decision we made in the wedding planning process. Our cake was great, our DJ was awesome, and the reception venue was perfect, but the ONE thing that guests are still talking about a month later is our gorgeous flowers. I really can't explain how exceptionally beautiful they turned out. I had been referred to Yingka by a mutual friend, but I hesitated to reach out for months because I worried that she and her team might not have the level of experience I was looking for (totally wrong). Finally, with only a month to go before my Valentine's Day wedding, I called up Yingka in desperation and was shocked that she was not only free, but was willing to work within my budget. I had spoken with other florists and received quotes for twice the cost that Master-Plans charged me. Flowers on Valentine's Day are not cheap, and I still have no idea how Yingka managed to produce such stunning bouquets and centerpieces while staying within ... Read morebudget. Truly amazing. When Yingka arrived at the hotel that morning (punctual as ever!) with the bouquets, I was thrilled. They were stunning. And when I saw how fantastic my groom's boutonniere looked up on the altar, I was over-the-moon. But it wasn't until I arrived at the reception venue and saw what a phenomenal job she'd done with the centerpieces that she earned her place in my book as the best vendor of all time. Each table had three different types of vases, filled with beautiful assortments of peach, pink, and white roses. The filler flowers were gorgeous, too. She really went above and beyond all my expectations. If you're still not sure if you should hire Yingka and her incredible team, here's one final tidbit: My mom has never been a big fan of flowers (something about reminding her of funerals, haha), but one month after our wedding she is STILL talking about how unbelievably gorgeous the flowers were. I can't recommend Master Plans more highly!

We hired Yingka to do our florals and day-of coordination for our early October wedding in Palos Verdes. She was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. We immediately trusted Yingka over the other florists we met with. She quickly understood what we wanted, and her suggestions were perfectly in line with our own ideas. She was easy to communicate with and executed our discussion/agreement beautifully. My bouquet was out of this world beautiful, the altar arrangements (we had tall florals in big urns, rather than an arch) were amazing, and the reception was STUNNING. I was a little worried that it would be difficult to dress up our reception room - just a big banquet room - but was absolutely blown away when I walked into the room on our wedding day. It was so much prettier than I ever imagined it could be, all thanks to Yingka!! I also can't imagine my wedding day without Yingka and her whole team as my coordinators. They were complete lifesavers! She was so helpful ... Read morewith all the little details I wouldn't even know to think about - preparing a massive, multi-page timeline for all of our vendors/venue; helping our officiant (a family member, not his regular gig!) with the rehearsal and actual ceremony; and, of course, taking care of everything day-of. My wedding day was a complete breeze thanks to Yingka. She also has a no-nonsense attitude and exudes calm -- I completely trusted her to talk care of anything that came up. We cannot recommend her enough!! Please contact me if you have any questions about her services. I will sing her praises to anyone who will listen, and am happy to provide more specific information. She's worth every penny!!
