Rose Ahn Events

Working with Rose is like having your really organized best friend take care of your event. The first thing you’ll notice is how warm and friendly she is on your initial calls. This did not change throughout our process. We truly enjoyed just chatting with her, and talking about food we both liked when discussing those options. Secondly, her experience in the pre-event stage will rapidly show itself as you describe what it is you want. For us, it was a small, family-oriented wedding in NYC in March. Venue knowledge, quality vendor relationships, logistics advice...you name it, she had info at the ready, and choices that fit our personalities. If she didn’t, she found it soon thereafter, which may be even more important because that shows her adaptability. When we brought on a photographer, videographer and hair & makeup artist she’d never worked with before (family connection), she was flexible enough to get them on-board. Time-wise, we only had 10 ten weeks to get it done, and to be honest, with Rose it felt like a normal time to get things ready. Maybe we could have used 1-2 extra weeks, but the way in which Rose took care of our big picture (e.g., colors, overall aesthetic, a “family reunion” theme) plus dozens of tiny details (e.g., what would hold up the officiant’s script, which hotel had better room for hair & makeup, what time would the cake place open up the day of), it seemed like everything was completely fine. Of course, there were probably loads of problems that were solved behind the scenes, but that’s where she shines. With full-time jobs, we are used to doing things on our own, but with Rose it was like having the Wolf character in Pulp Fiction at your side, doing all the hard work of your family’s accommodations, keeping vendors informed and to your specs, hashing out seating arrangements, and feeling out what would be the most enjoyable schedule of events. She totally read our couple vibe from the start: warm, friendly, family-oriented, quirky. That kind of palm reading is probably something you won’t think of needing, but when Rose knew our natural tendencies, she was able to identify and apply that to every decision, which is hard to find! Day-of: along with a super professional and kind assistant, Rose turns into a battlefield general, and I mean that in the best way. She sees the complete day in her head, has all the chess pieces in place, and is moving mountains for you, whether it’s getting people in place or putting out fires. She’s 100% game face, and that’s what you want, so you can be all smiles and enjoy your day, which we did. She consults you discreetly if a projector you wanted to use is acting up, or gently reminds you if a vendor’s about to head out and you wanted to get them a tip, otherwise, she’s busy kindly moving your guests where they need to be or solving some silly thing that happened to the wedding cake (not her fault). All in all, Rose came to us as a suggestion from one of the top wedding planners in NYC. It is clear why: professional, strategic yet detail-oriented, intuitive, and FUN. Most of this process is the planning and it was like talking to a best friend about what is going to be one of the most memorable days of your lives. Rose was that and more. I hope you’re able to work with her, but I also hope not too many of you are by the time we want plan another event with her :) Good luck planning your own event, but you probably won’t need it with Rose. She is your luck.

Rose was super helpful and went above and beyond in every sense. We hired her to coordinate the month of the wedding and she handled all the vendor scheduling, building the timeline, scheduling all meetings including rehearsal and during the day of her team made sure everything ran smoothly. She was always available and provided us with great advice. We would definitely recommend her to anyone, she reduced our wedding stress tremendously and we were able to better enjoy our wedding day thanks to her.
