Jenn is a particularly strong fit for Chinese American couples who want someone who understands the cultural side of the wedding without making the celebration feel overly traditional. She speaks English, Cantonese, and Mandarin, with many couples praising how well she communicates with parents and other family members.

Her real superpower is handling whatever gets thrown at her without adding stress to the room. She’s found replacement vendors at the last minute, sewn up a hole in a groom’s tux, fixed a broken bustle, and even personally rearranged a bouquet when the bride wasn’t happy with how it arrived. Couples also call out the less dramatic but equally important stuff: keeping family and the wedding party on schedule, carving out rehearsal time for a choreographed first dance, and having a good enough eye for décor that they’re comfortable letting her take over. She’s also highly accessible throughout the planning process, with an open group chat for questions and unlimited scheduled calls.

A sweet bonus: Jenn takes candid phone videos throughout the wedding and sends them to the couple afterward, so you get little behind-the-scenes moments before the professional footage comes back. Coordination starts at $3,600, partial planning at $9,000, and full planning at $14,800. If you’re getting married at Celestine, ask about her special venue rate.
