d anyone who wants hassle-free wedding service, they'll coordinate everything smoothly for you!

decision ever. Ben was our photographer for both pre-wedding and wedding photo. He did an exceptional job, very creative, very patient and diligent until he is satisfied with the pictures. I'm very pleased with makeup artist Alice, she did an amazing job for both pre-wedding and wedding day. She truly listened to my need. The decoration was phenomenal too. They transformed the venue into a fairytale for us. The venue is stunning and so incredibly peaceful! We truly experienced a fairy-tale wedding at Tai Wu! Even though we lived far away. The whole team worked together to give us a dream wedding in San Francisco as we always wanted. I cant thank them enough for all the efforts they put in to make our big day the most special one out of our lives! Highly recommend to anyone!

flowers & backdrops, everything was spot on. I highly recommend TDE!

My wife did many research and compared countless wedding services in the bay area and TDE came out on top. Not only was the price ultra-competitive, but also the quality is next to none. We're glad that we choose TDE! Not only was all the staff there very patient with us, our photographer & videographer are super talented and professional. Our DJ/lighting was very creative and created the right "mood" for our wedding. The music and lights came out exactly how we wanted without any problems. Lets not forget our wedding planner that helped us along the whole journey, Carina. If it wasn't for her I think we would both panic on the wedding from all the stress putting everything together. Once again we'd like to thank TDE for being a part of our most important day in life and would highly recommend TDE to any couples that are getting married!

just a burst of fun where they made it easy going and relaxing to work with, they capture the raw emotions in each photos. Videographers did an amazing job capturing each moment from our Door games, tea ceremony to our banquet with such details. Finally Otis, Emcee, was simply amazing! Him and the crew were at the venue to set up before start time and made sure everything was on point! Especially he's creative to be ready to entertain our guest with smooth transitions. Thank you TDE!!

modate, find the right people, and everything went on as planned. With the wedding package they provide, we also got complimentary planning on all the service details & logistics. Which is a big plus as they provide very thoughtful ideas and communicate quickly and efficiently whenever you need help. Highly recommend this company for your big day!

to booth and day-of coordinator. The flowers were beautiful, lighting was perfect, DJ had all the songs I asked for, MC was perfect switching between English, Cantonese, Mandarin for my guests, photo booth was fun and day-of-coordination was perfect! If you're planning a wedding, check out TDE and see what they can do for you. You might find that they have everything you need.

edding day special. We found their Service Instruction (SI) document to be incredibly intuitive and effective. First and foremost, Jessica was incredibly organized and always on top of the ball. She was able to assist us on any miscellaneous questions or requests. Jessica was a great communicator and was able to explain everything effortlessly. We were incredibly happy with our photographer Sam for our engagement photos. He was incredibly patient and put his full effort into making our engagement photos exceptional. The quality of the photos were remarkable. On the day of the wedding, he did a great job directing everyone in order to get the best shots. He brought a positive attitude and it was a joy working with him. On the day of the wedding, TDE really took the weight off our shoulders. We were impressed by how hard and diligent their staff worked. They collaborated very well with our reception vendor, King Wah, in organizing and setting up the venue. The head table flowers were gorgeous. Otis did an amazing job as emcee. As a family split between English and Cantonese speakers, Otis was able to integrate both sides of the family so that everyone could have a fun experience. I received compliments on Otis from everyone saying how he set the tone for the wedding and created a lively and positive experience for everyone. From the draft we've seen so far from our wedding video, the cinematography is breathtaking. The CG team has done a great job with the editing. We will be able to re-live our wedding with pure joy and bliss. TDE brought their "A" game for our wedding and hit a grand slam. I cannot emphasize enough how significant their contribution was to our special day. I would strongly recommend hiring TDE for an organized, beautiful, and entertaining wedding.

eps making sure we don't forget anything. Sam and George were impressively professional and helpful especially for us who don't normally pose for pictures. The pictures came out fast too. We got a lot of compliments from family & friends regarding TDE's services and my brother's also already booking them!

sponded in a timely manner. I'm glad to meet the TDE, they were doing a wonderful job on my big day of my life, what a perfect wedding banquet with TDE!

and my wife and I SCRAMBLED to see who we can find to MC and DJ our wedding. THANKFULLY, we found TDE through a recommendation through our venue and reached out to them right away. Jessica at TDE replied to our email inquiry in less than 24 hours and from there, she was such a breeze to communicate with. We got REALLY lucky because they had a DJ and MC available on our day considering it's wedding season already. They assigned Ken as our MC and this guy is beyond awesome. The DJ they provided was as very smooth. Both of them together was a great combination especially if you have both English and Chinese speaking guests are your event. TDE was very thorough throughout the whole process (crazy thorough especially with the wedding in 2.5 weeks) and always made sure we were satisfied with what we had planned. The in person meeting was quick, efficient, and we easily ironed out all the needs/to-dos. On the day of our wedding, Ken and our DJ arrived early to set up and from there, Ken was not only an awesome MC, he inserted himself to help us in so many other ways (almost like a day-of coordinator). Ken has a great personality and definitely knows how to keep our guests engaged and having a good time. All in all, I really think their MC and DJ services was worth every penny. They make it feel seamless and you dont have to stress over things the day of, which is SO important. I definitely suggest them to anyone that I know that will be having future wedding coming up!

see TDE work at her wedding, making it a no brainer for me to choose them for my wedding. I contacted TDE ~3 months prior to my wedding date. Yes, I am that crazy lady that decided to take on the challenge of planning a wedding in that little time. Despite the short notice and the short amount of time needed to plan, they took on the challenge with me. I was in constant contact with Jessica, who is so sweet and is amazing at her role! She gets back to you quickly and is there throughout everything. They were so flexible with my constant changes and worked with me to make the wedding perfect. The day of the wedding, Otis did an amazing job MC-ing the wedding. His staff that did all the decor as well as the Photo Booth was amazing as well. I can't thank them enough for all their hard work. My guests all complimented me on how I got the wedding to run so smoothly and look so amazing, and to be honest, if it weren't for the help of TDE, it may not have been the way it was. THANK YOU SO MUCH TDE. I'll be referring people to you!

operly execute most of the 'components' from the start. The Day Entertainment is something that came across one of our vendor searches. Surprisingly, we noticed one of our friends during a few quick glances at the photo gallery on Yelp! There is too much to list of everything that went right from TDE, so here is a breakdown of every individual involved that made my wife and I's big day such a memorable and unforgettable moment! Jessica: You truly are a superstar in your own league! Thank you for keeping track of everything when we did not know what the next steps were going to be. You broke it down so carefully and well that it was simply seamless from the very beginning. Without your relentless help, the outcome of this past weekend would have definitely not been the same. We cannot thank you or express enough words to tell you just how much you have been the biggest X factor in the process! Otis: It wouldn't be fair to say that your role during all the planning was minor, but when communication between certain individuals and us had gone stagnant, you had definitely filled in to provide us with prompt responses and overall help. Thank you for being part of the meetings that tremendously helped to eventually put all the pieces together. Ben and Christina: Thank you so much for capturing the most precious and most wacky moments of that day. We sincerely appreciate your patience with not only us, but our friends, family, and guests as well. We recognize and understand just how much work goes into your crafts, so take as much as needed to process everything! We cannot wait to see how beautiful everything will turn out. Staff Responsible For Setting Up All the Backdrops: This was probably one of the biggest unknowns for Karen and I. Although Jessica gave us useful links to get inspired by different designs, it did get overwhelming for the both of us to go through. With the help of Karen's sis-in-laws, we were able to narrow it down to some choices. What this team ultimately created was more than what my wife and I could have ever imagined or dreamed of. Thank you for turning our basic vision into something obviously larger and better! Jackson: Master of Ceremonies. More like, absolutely killed it. You were and are the difference in between a mediocre/average wedding and an over the top/#neverforget wedding. Your ability to draw in the crowd and get guests actually excited to be involved during the reception was impeccable. We apologize but thank you so highly for accommodating the slight tweaks, changes and surprises that occurred that night. Regardless, you were able to adjust at any given moment without delay. To Those We May Have Overlooked: THANK YOU!!! No matter how small or large the tasks were, you are all responsible for creating the best, to-date, event/party (wedding) of our lives. The dedication, undeniable hard work, efforts, sweat, (hope no blood was involved), and absolute determination to make this all happen for my wife and I can never be thanked for enough. TDE, Too Damn Exceptional. You may want to consider that as your new company name. THANK YOU SO SO SO MUCH!!! Karen and Jeff

, I was nervous with all the details leading up to the wedding but Jessica knew what information was needed and the SI (service instruction) was good to go. I am so thankful for Carina, everything went according to plan at the ceremony/reception and if something wasn't, she figured it out. She emailed all of our vendors to ensure all the details were in order. Thankfully she did since our alcohol delivery would not have happened when it was supposed to. We have heard from so many people that they thought Otis and Jimmy were the best MCs they have ever seen. Jimmy was in training so Jessica asked if it would be ok to have him assist Otis. I am so thankful to Jimmy for translating my MOH's speech, it was spot on and hilarious. Otis and Jimmy kept us on schedule during the banquet and were very flexible. The photobooth attendants were also wonderful. Everyone was so nice and the day could not have gone any better, thank you so much TDE!

gh we had some logistics issue with the photographer and videographer at the beginning of the day, TDE management was very helpful and accommodating with the situation. The day could have started out bad, but they did all they could to prevent it and it turned out great. It would have been nice to have been able to collaborate with them beforehand so everyone would be on the same page. The whole decoration planning and designing was a very easy and painless process. My event was not in the same city where I live in, so we had to plan everything remotely. Everything was over the phone and via email and TDE responded instantly to our correspondence without delay. On the day of, the decorations were exactly what we had requested. There were also few things here and there that they had helped with towards the planning of our wedding. Although they weren't obligated, they were willing to provide us with the help we requested. Again, I definitely recommend them to anyone!

red TDE for his wedding banquet three years ago and highly recommended TDE, so my wife and I decided to go with TDE as well. We were so glad that we did. Jessica was our live saver where she gave us advices, suggestions, options, and kept us on the schedule of what needed to be done. My wife had her makeup and hair done by TDE and she looked absolutely gorgeous. Our photographer Sam had done a wonderful job capturing lots of beautiful and memorable moments. I highly recommended TDE to any couple for their wedding needs. Awesome service, amazing people and wonderful wedding experience.

ly beautiful. We got lots of compliments for them. Jessica was wonderful to work with, she kept us up-date with what to expect and communicated well over email. Our DJ and MC were great. My guests loved Otis! He kept our crowd of over 300 guest involved, and that's a hard feat to accomplish. Our major complaint is the fact that there was some inconsistency in our planner. Mid-way through the planning process, someone else took over with no explanation, then Jessica came back as our planner, again without explanation. This led to some confusion as there were certain things the other planner had talked about that was not communicated to Jessica, & vice versa. My other minor pet-peeve was that we didn't really get to talk to our photographer until the day of the wedding. As someone who's not the most comfortable with photography, this left me very anxious about the whole process until the day of the wedding. Luckily, Ben was patient and easy to work with. Lastly, I was disappointed that TDE did not have the cloth in the color I picked out for my wedding for our head table and we had to supply our own. Considering the fact that we are hiring them for this service, I had expected that they would procure the cloth on our behalf instead of us going out of our way to look for it.

all my questions leading to the day of. I knew nothing about weddings or planning one and the millions of details that goes into it but Jessica was there to explain everything, showing examples and what typically goes on during a wedding and even the order of things which really helped make me make sense of it all. THANK YOU!. My make up from trial, engagement shoot, to the day of was done by Alice and she was AMAZING, very talented and knew exactly which look and hair styles would look good on me and my girls and was very honest and sweet. She was also very patient not only with me but with my bridesmaids. I would also like to mention that I have never seen my mom in make up my whole life and that day she looked amazing which is quite memorable for me! Ben was the photographer for our engagement shoot and for our wedding and let me say that he is best!. My husband is not a big fan of taking pictures let alone a shoot, but Ben actually made the shoot very fun,easy and enjoyable even my husband said that he had fun at the end of the shoot! He was also very good with communicating with everyone at the wedding and patient as my family photos grew bigger bigger by the second. Otis was the best MC that we can ever ask for, he coordinated and communicated with everyone at the wedding very well even though the entourage and our parents we were all scattered, he some how got everything and everyone under controlled, and on schedule! It was also great to have a bilingual MC since 75% of our guest spoke Cantonese. Lastly a big thank you to the decoration team, everyone from music to photo booth and everything in between! I have gotten many compliments of how everything came together so nicely!

sts and wedding party was so happy with them. They were everywhere and I think they captured every moment. My wedding decor was just beautiful. Everyone was very pleased. I would recommend TDE to anyone who is getting married. They will not DISAPPOINT!

ding Planning Jessica worked with us from the first day we visited TDE a year before the wedding, to the day before the event, to even assisting us with little details afterwards, such as photo processing. Jessica always puts the client first and made us feel valued and respected. She is very easy to work with, thorough, and detail-oriented. TDE has a wedding planning process that they put all clients through, which includes periodic meetings and a document that thoroughly addresses all aspects of the services contracted. Jessica's wonderful customer service, coupled with TDE's client pipeline, made my husband and I feel confident that our wedding was in good hands. Photography Eric was an absolute joy to work with! He showed up an hour and a half earlier than the contracted time, to scope out the venue and take getting ready photos with us. His artistic vision and technical photography skills were just what we were looking for. Eric had tons and tons of photo shoot locations and poses lined up and ready to go for us, and he was very good at instructing us on how to achieve those shots. He barely took any breaks during the 10 hours that he was with us, trying his utmost to capture every moment and every detail. Furthermore, he turned around over 500 beautiful photos to us in less than two and a half weeks. My family and friends love them! Flowers The flowers turned out much more beautifully than I thought they would! The arrangements exactly matched my photos and description. The florist took great care in ensuring the quality of every flower, and her placement of water sources for the reception pieces and bouquet were strategic. The flowers played an integral part of creating an elegant look on our wedding day. Decorations The decorations team had a considerable range of materials to work with and will customize decorations to suit your needs. We had a sign-in table, cake table, photo backdrop, and head table backdrop done by TDE. Jessica walked us through all the details of what we wanted for each piece, and the decorations team experimented with some ideas just for us DJ We created a list of songs to be played for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception, along with cues for fade in and fade out for certain events (processional, cake cutting, etc). Derrick took the time to create a playlist for each phase of the wedding, months before the day, and shared it with us for our review. On the wedding day, Derrick correctly followed all the cues and did a great job setting up the mics and speakers. At the last hour of the night, when our playlist was finished, Derrick selected several songs from his repertoire that were just in line with the music style that we were aiming for. By and large, my husband and I agree that going with TDE is well worth the investment!

the lighting, and even the emcees. Having TDE take care of the majority of our wedding services, (which means you only need to sign one contract, with one vendor!!), everything went very smoothly on the big day. You work with one planner, which for us was Jessica. Jessica is incredibly kind and helpful, especially in helping us with alternate suggestions when something we were thinking of doing would not be as feasible.. especially when it came down to some of my ideas that I saw on Pinterest. Our photographer team was with Sam. Sam is incredibly kind and fun to work with. He's very humorous, and worked with us to ensure he got quality shots, and that we were comfortable during the photoshoots. Our engagement photos turned out amazing, and we can't wait to see the final products for our wedding day photos. A big thank you to the makeup team - My makeup artist was Carol, and she went above and beyond on her job as the MUA. We had some issues with my dress change during dinner service, and she stepped in quickly and skillfully to help me out! Also, as one holding a Chinese banquet for our wedding, a bilingual emcee was a must, and bilingual emcees, they have! Ken was an incredible emcee for our wedding, and our guests had a great time at the wedding. All in all, TDE is an amazing place to go to for planning your wedding. It might seem a bit costly in the beginning, but it really was worth it, since everything went smoothly and there were no hassles throughout the planning and execution. Thank you!!

ltiple bridal fairs and compared to other vendors, TDE's packages are competitively priced. They have different packages that could cover most of wedding needs like photographer, videographer, hair and make up, floral, DJ, emcee, decorations, etc. We went with the basic package and added some items as we planned our wedding. We didn't feel pressured to purchase anything we didn't feel we needed, so I appreciate that from TDE/Jessica. Planning a wedding is stressful and I would find myself not knowing where to focus or where to even begin but after each meeting with Jessica, I felt relieved and on track. Jessica and other people we spoke with (Alice, Sam, Jackson, and more) were very detailed and specific. Our wedding really went smoothly and our guests enjoyed it. Some guests inquired about our vendors and were very impressed by TDE. I highly recommend TDE!

fe will never regret of choosing TDE as our wedding vendor. Otis did a wonderful job as a emcee, he is very professional and helpful. Also our photographers & videographers team catch everyone's smiling on the wedding day. Every photos turns out very nice. Overall, TDE is definitely the top choice as a wedding vendor.

stions and provided expertise advice when we weren't sure of how to do certain things. We changed our minds a million times all the way up to the last possible day, but Jessica was able to accommodate all of our crazy changes. Our photographers (Sam and Ray) were amazing!! They were very professional and made us felt really comfortable when taking photos. They knew where all the best locations were to take photos at Palace of Fine arts and at Crissy Fields - which meant that we didn't waste any time deciding where to go for photos. It helped a lot that Sam spoke English, Cantonese and Mandarin as we had guests that understood one language but not the other. Alice did a wonderful job with my makeup - from the very beginning with the makeup trial, to the actual wedding day make up, to the touch ups during the day. She was very detail oriented and meticulous to ensure everything was perfect! I had different makeup styles as well as hairstyles throughout the day and she was able to make all the styles to exactly how I wanted. Otis, who was our emcee for the banquet did a fantastic job during the entire evening!! The atmosphere and mood for the night was lively and enjoyable. He constantly checked in with us during the evening to see how we were doing, gave us updates, and prepared us if upcoming events based on the agenda/timeline. All of our friends and family really enjoyed the evening. Otis was a true professional and did an amazing job on balancing 3 different languages (English, Cantonese and Mandarin). He made us felt really comfortable from the beginning of the evening all the way till the end. Overall, we are extremely happy with all the services that TDE provided. The stress of planning a wedding was made easy and seamless. We will recommend all of our friends and family to TDE if they are planning to get married.
