Reviews of Karin Wu & Co. (Event Planner)

Janet Gin

Karin Wu & Co was definitely the reason I was able to remain (relatively) calm leading up to and on my wedding day. We hired Karin for month of coordination, and the materials she provided were so detailed. Communication was always prompt and she addressed every point or concern I had. I was so happy with the services she and her assistant Christine provided for us, I barely lifted a finger on my wedding day. But the best thing (and most memorable thing) was the emotional support I felt from them. Sometimes things are out of your control, and it would have stressed me out immensely, but Karin was there to sort and iron out all the issues that came up. Thank you Karin and Christine!!

Hiring Karin Wu & Co. was the best decision we made in our wedding planning. We hired her as a Month-of-Coordinator. From the first time we met, she blew us away with her organization, eye for detail, and flexibility. We had to make some last minute changes to our itinerary, and she was helpful and accommodating with every new thing we threw at her. Our families were reassured with the mini-itinerary she made for them, which was a lifesaver. We knew we were in safe hands as the wedding approached, and the actual day went amazingly well. She and her assistant, Christine, were hard at work the whole day, making sure that everything came together. All of our guests were impressed by the smoothness of the day, and we recommend her wholeheartedly! If you want to have a good time at your own wedding, Karin is your lady!

Karin Wu gets an absolute recommendation from my wife and I. Karin and her team pulled off the impossible, we had two weeks, a difficult venue, multiple moving parts and a newly amended date - it went amazingly well. Our compliments to the whole team and LivChic Events.

I had a pilivage to work with Karin Wu & Co on a wedding I performed. She made everything move smoothly and without ease. Here detailed timeline is something that the vendors and wedding couple couldn’t make a mistake on because it was so precise. She is very friendly and easy to get a hold of. I recommend her company to anyone who is getting married.

Karin did a fantastic job helping us coordinate our wedding! Our wedding ran smoothly, and we are SO happy with the way it turned out. Karin shows so much professionalism in her work, she is very responsive, and offers a lot of insight on details I might've missed. She is splendid to work with, 10/10 would recommend.

Karin was my Month of Wedding Planning and Coordinator and she was beyond amazing! Due to our work schedules, my fiancé (now husband) and I had to work the day prior to our wedding. I was actually in the US for a business conference and arrived back in Toronto the day before our wedding. Therefore, we needed someone who was hands-on, organized, and reliable. And Karin was all of that and more! I honestly cannot say enough about how she saved my wedding day. I am a HUGE control freak and Karin was able to keep me calm and handle ALL of my bridezilla moments. I also had a lot of last minute details/itinerary changes prior to the wedding and Karin made all the appropriate accommodations/changes without hesitation. To give you some context, I had a full blown traditional wedding with approx. 200 guests, a Catholic Church ceremony, sit-down reception, hired MC, florals/décor (including DIY), and Chinese Tea Ceremony: 1. We had a terrible florist that was super unresponsive after she took our final payment. We had a series of issues with her including meeting cancellations and other issues. Of course, as expected, on the day of our wedding, our Florist did not arrive to the church as scheduled and was not answering any of our calls. Karin had everything under control and was able to finally get in contact with the florist who arrived just in time for our wedding ceremony. No fault of Karin’s, as we booked the florist prior to hiring Karin - the florist actually provided the wrong flowers for our bridal bouquets for our ceremony and because of the last minute mishap, Karin worked directly with the florist to physically made sure that the floral centrepieces we ordered were correct as well. Keep in mind, our church was in North York and our venue was in Kleinburg! 2. One of my Bridemaids left her personal items in the church after the ceremony and Karin personally drove back to the church from Kleinburg to retrieve it! 3. We had a lot of last minute, day of, guest cancellations, (about 6) and because we already paid for the venue in full, Karin was able to work with the venue and get us some of our money back on the “no shows”! 4. Karin, being trilingual, also saved the day being “Lady Luck” for my Chinese Tea Ceremony 5. We had a fire alarm go off during our reception, and Karin quickly acted to get the alarm turned off immediately. 6. Because the fire alarm went off, it resetted all of the electrical controls during our reception and Karin efficiently worked with the DJs and the venue to ensure sound and lighting was working perfectly. 7. The venue was supposed to provide a table for our last night snack (Burgers and fries) but did not have one available, so Karin improvised and carried all our receiving table items into Bridal suite for safe keeping and moved the table into the hall for the late night snack setup BY HERSELF (because the venue refused to touch our things). She handled everything behind the scenes so well that many of our guests (including THE judgey Aunt) commented on how efficient and smooth our wedding was. Karin was definitely the unsung hero of the night. We never once had to get involved with any of the issues and she handled everything promptly and efficiently. I could have not asked for a better Wedding coordinator. She made our night so fun and stress-free. Definitely recommend!!
