“Every detail was handled with care and precision, and the end result was absolutely stunning”
Working with Honey and Lavender Events was an absolute dream! From the very beginning, each planner brought incredible professionalism, creativity, and warmth to the process. We had the pleasure of working with Jules and Christina for our latest events, and they did an exceptional job with coordination and organization—ensuring everything on wedding day flowed seamlessly.
Every detail was handled with care and precision, and the end result was absolutely stunning. We can’t recommend Honey and Lavender Events highly enough!
“Our timeline was five pages long, running from 5:30 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., and guess what? We followed it flawlessly”
I just had my wedding on 9/15/2024, and it was truly the best day of my life! I had been working with Maya since January, and she was by my side through every decision, from choosing the venue to finalizing the seating chart details. Everyone who attended was impressed with how everything turned out, and only Maya and I truly knew how much effort went into it.
On the actual day, I cannot speak highly enough of Maya and Christina. They handled EVERYTHING, from coordinating with hotel staff and managing vendor deliveries to setting up the ceremony and reception, and even managing the guest sign-ins and gifts. My wedding day was packed because I wanted to combine Chinese traditions with a Western-style wedding. Our timeline was five pages long, running from 5:30 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., and guess what? We followed it flawlessly.
I highly, highly, HIGHLY recommend them!
“Everything on the wedding day went extremely smoothly, and we were able to relax and enjoy our special day”
Our experience working with the Honey and Lavender Team was a dream. We used their day-of coordination services plan, and it was exactly what we needed. During our initial call with the owner, Maya, she answered all of our questions and recommended which of their packages would work best for our needs. We had already coordinated/reached out to many vendor teams, so we were looking for someone to put it all together toward the end of the planning process and help us coordinate the timeline on the day of. About a month before our wedding, our planner Olivia reached out to us and scheduled a meeting to touch base. We also sent over all of our vendor contacts and contracts. Olivia then reached out to everyone and created a very thorough and detailed timeline for the rehearsal and wedding day. We met with her–virtually and in person– several times over the month to coordinate details, and she frequently sent us action items so that we could ensure every detail was accounted for. During the rehearsal and wedding, Olivia led the charge, organizing and instructing our wedding parties on where to stand and go, communicating with the venue and vendors to ensure everything was running on time, and keeping track of any decorations that needed to be moved throughout the venue. Olivia was flexible with our special requests, such as arranging chairs from the ceremony in a specific setup so that we could play some games during the cocktail hour, and made sure me and my guests felt comfortable, such as making sure the two of us always had a drink in hand and holding on to my mom’s glasses during the ceremony so that she would not lose them.
Everything on the wedding day went extremely smoothly, and we were able to relax and enjoy our special day, and we believe that this is hugely due to Olivia’s planning and coordination. Many of our bridal party and family even commented on how helpful and great Olivia was! We highly recommend working with the Honey and Lavender team!
