Here are some testimonials from our wonderful clients.
I hired Tzo Ai three months before my wedding and she proved to be an ideal event planner – smart, patient, organized and tasteful, with great attention to detail and an impressive ability to remain calm under pressure. She was flexible and generous with her time – I had numerous meetings with her individually as well as with vendors – and she was always early and perfectly prepared. She had great rapport with all my vendors but was, at the same time, a strong advocate for what I wanted, whether it was with an impatient florist or a skeptical seamstress. Most importantly, she is a dependable, hard worker who can execute a complicated plan five months in the making down to the minutest detail and without breaking a sweat. My outdoor ceremony and reception, which were in separate areas, took a great deal of preparation and coordination – 16 different vendors -- and thanks to Tzo Ai everything went smoothly. She is a big reason why my wedding turned out to be so beautiful and memorable. I feel lucky to have found Tzo Ai and have no reservations in recommending her to any bride!
- Anne, New Leaf Restaurant Wedding
Coming from a large family (I am the youngest of six and my husband the youngest of five); I never thought I would need or want a wedding coordinator. I mean with all those people, surely we would have so much help but when we started looking over the events of the day and all the details, all I could think about is how in the world can you do all this AND be relaxed AND have an amazing, fun wedding day. Although I didn’t know exactly what a wedding coordinator did, I thought it was worth looking into and could not be happier to have found Tzo Ai! From the very beginning she put me and my Mother (which is hard to do) at complete ease! She is extremely professional, polite, detail orientated and just overall fun to be around. From the hotel to the Church to the reception, she helped get me organized and made sure that all I had to worry about the day of the wedding was having fun. Every one of our vendors went out of their way to say what a pleasure it was to work with her. As our band e-mailed us after the wedding, “Tzo Ai was fantastic! She was professional, kind, and accommodating.” If you are looking for someone to not only help you with your wedding, but someone who will do it with the highest level of professionalism and class, then I highly recommend hiring Tzo Ai!
- Meghan, Church of St Andrew & Bridgewaters Wedding
Our wedding would never have happened without Tzo Ai. Almost 3 years into our engagement, we only had a wedding date. Obviously this wasn't a priority for us, but we wanted to throw a fabulous event nonetheless. Tzo Ai researched and priced all vendors (venues, flowers, photographers, make-up, calligrapher, paper goods, etc...) taking our ideas, preferences, and budget into consideration the entire time. She presented the choices and we picked the ones we were interested in. Even though we were operating under a fairly aggressive timeline, she didn't pressure us to decide. She arranged and was present in all vendor meetings and negotiated contracts on our behalf. Throughout the process she stayed on top of every loose end. On the day of the reception, in the worst October weather in New York City in 200 years (thundersnow!?), Tzo Ai was a calming force. Everything turned out as we hoped -- except the weather but only because Tzo Ai had no control over it.
- Teresa, Per Se Wedding
We couldn't have been happier with the wedding, you were amazing! We can't thank you enough for all you did for us, the day went so smoothly, I'm certain that was thanks to you! I'd be happy to refer you anytime. Thanks so much for everything!!!
- Katie, Angel Orensanz Foundation for the Arts Wedding
We live overseas and hired Tzo Ai for our wedding in New York, mostly for day-of coordination. She went above and beyond our expectations - she was always available, responsive to emails seemingly at all hours of the day, and was meticulously organized. She was never late to a meeting, was always perfectly prepared, and anticipated needs that we didn't even know we had. She took the initiative to contact our vendors directly and made sure the whole process went smoothly and is not afraid of doing even the little things herself to make sure they're done right. We would highly recommend Tzo Ai for any event planning needs.
- Bethany & Sage, St Bartholomew's Church & Per Se Wedding
Tzo Ai was instrumental in planning our wedding from the day we got engaged to the day we got married. Given that our wedding had both chinese traditional component and western component, the wedding was an intensive whole day affair. Tzo Ai made sure that each part of the wedding went as planned. We had a great time at our wedding and we attribute that in no small way to Tzo Ai's masterful planning. We had a relaxed and fun wedding and we are really thankful for everything she did for us, in particular, peace of mind. She is efficient, calm, tasteful, detail oriented, professional and friendly. She is like an oasis in any wedding chaos. We highly recommend Tzo Ai.
- Carrina & Moses, St Anthony's Church & Cuisine Cuisine Wedding
We approached Tzo Ai to help with certain aspects of planning and organising of our wedding and we were incredibly impressed by her professionalism, dedication and insight to make sure the special day went as smoothly and as wonderfully as possible. We are especially grateful for her advice during the planning and above all, her cool headed presence to keep us calm on the day! The day really flies by and having someone on hand to oversee that things tick over smoothly is invaluable.
From the planning stages through to the actual day, she was always on hand to offer her suggestions and isn't afraid to voice her opinions from a knowledgeable and understanding perspective. On the preparations, we took her advice about numerous suppliers - little insights such as what personal touches for decorations would work well with our set up and so on, which only a really experienced planner would be able to provide. On the day, she made sure all the logistics ran smoothly, was on hand to liaise with the suppliers, the venue and toastmasters so that everything from timing of key events, payment, queries from suppliers to positioning of decorative items were all taken care of discretely and without our involvement so we could really enjoy the wedding.
I would have absolutely no reservations in recommending her company to friends. Having an experienced planner like Tzo Ai really adds to the depth of the wedding and makes sure things run smoothly on the day, provides the voice of experience when you really need some reassurance that things will work out fine!
