Wedding Story

point! Ms. Jackie was our full-time coordinator, and she made our wedding planning process stress-free and seamless! Our wedding planning timeline was short, and we definitely wouldn’t have been able to book the venue & other vendors without Ms. Jackie’s help. She has connections to pretty much every vendor in the area, and she helped secure the best vendors at a great price!! Thank you Ms. Jackie & the Wedding Story for taking care of every small details of the planning process & making our once-in-a-lifetime moment memorable and stress-free. We now recommend Ms. Jackie to ALLLL of our engaged friends! Working with Wedding Story was the best investment and decision we’ve ever made!!

nish! From day one, she guided us through every step — helping us find the perfect venue, caterer, and our fantastic DJ Eddo, who kept the energy going all night! Planning a wedding long-distance from two different states could’ve been stressful, but Jackie made it effortless. She met with us monthly — whether over video calls or in person — always making sure we were on track and at ease. Her experience, organization, and trusted vendor connections saved us so much time and stress. On the big day, Jackie and her team handled every detail behind the scenes so flawlessly that we were able to be fully present and truly enjoy every moment. We were also completely BLOWN AWAY by the stunning floral arrangements provided by Wedding Story — they transformed the venue into something truly magical! Our family and guests couldn’t stop raving about how gorgeous and enchanting everything looked! We are endlessly grateful to Jackie and the entire Wedding Story team for bringing our vision to life so beautifully. We can’t recommend them highly enough!

dding story came to our rescue! They were very detail oriented and organized. As a previously stressed bride, I highly recommend future couples to utilize their services. Prices are also very reasonable. There is a reason their business has been thriving for so many years! :-) God bless you!

perience. She guided us through the planning process, gave us advice we didn’t even know we needed, and helped us feel confident in every decision. She has such great relationships and connections in the wedding world, which made booking some of our vendors so much smoother. Thanks to her recommendations, we ended up with an amazing team who all worked together seamlessly on the day of our wedding. Beyond the logistics, what really stood out was how organized, reliable, and attentive she was. On the day itself, she handled every detail behind the scenes so flawlessly that we were able to enjoy every moment. If you’re looking for someone who not only knows the industry inside and out but also truly cares about making your day stress-free and beautiful, Jackie is the person to hire. We’re endlessly grateful for all she did for us and can’t imagine our wedding without her.

llow up with, but Jackie reached out to me via email/cell so remembering Wedding Story was super easy. Scheduling our consultation and discussing our vision was also a painfree process. One thing we really loved was how she stayed within our budget and I never worried about having to sacrifice a lot to achieve my dream wedding aesthetic. Additionally, when I told her about my concern having my cat at the wedding (who loves to eat all flowers) she made sure that the faux flowers would be stunning and that incorporating non-toxic flowers in case my cat nibbled on them would not result in an emergency visit to the vet! Perhaps most importantly, when it came to executing my bespoke vision for my wedding, Jackie and her team delivered the results in such a timely and fast way. I was floored by the final design, which was monochrome, surrealist, very trendy, but also majorly timeless -- all my wedding guests were blown away by the impact they created, even with 95% silk florals! She really sourced the highest quality flowers to use because not all fake flowers are the same. I cannot recommend her enough for your event!!

carry out my envisioned style so perfectly. I appreciate how professional and thorough she is in planning, which helped alleviate a lot of stress and allowed me to actually enjoy my engagement period and also the wedding day. I would recommend Wedding Story to all my friends and family!

ert advice, and handle the logistics, so you can focus on what truly matters! I have nothing but great things to say about Jackie and her team. She is truly a one-stop shop and the definition of HIGH quality. I used her vendors for cake, DJ, and Photo Booth. Because Jackie is well connected in the wedding industry, finding vendors was a seamless process. Every vendor I talked with assured me I was in great hands with Jackie being my planner/coordinator. The day of my wedding was so stress-free. She was able to quickly think on her feet because the weather was a lot chillier than we anticipated and was able to modify things that accommodated not only me as the bride but also my guests. My experience with Wedding Story and Jackie has been truly amazing. If I could go back, I would have used all her vendors.

t Jackie) to handle logistics on the day. We got a referral for Jackie to do hair and makeup. I went in for a trial, and we discovered WS offers full wedding services. We loved the flowers they did for other weddings so we hired WS for flowers too. Jackie went above and beyond, such as helping us with our hotel room block even though we hadn’t yet hired her for planning. Although we already hired our day-of coordinator elsewhere, Jackie gave us a planning package to ensure we got our money’s worth. She helped communicate with other vendors, and she worked with the coordinator so there wasn’t conflict. She responded to every email and phone call quickly and showed up on time to every meeting. On the wedding day, the weather threatened rain during the outdoor ceremony. Upon Jackie’s advice, we moved the ceremony indoors—and it was still beautiful because of her floral arrangements and the flower arch she brought last minute, free of charge. Bridesmaids, mothers, and others did hair and makeup. One bridesmaid wishes she could’ve brought her own foundation to use because she thought her makeup was too light for her skin, but she still loved how she looked. Bridesmaids complimented the makeup artist for being super gentle. Bridesmaids loved their hair. Everyone got a different style that suited them. One bridesmaid has curly hair and didn’t want a flat iron anywhere near it. As promised, Jackie didn’t use a flat iron, and she checked whether supplies and tools were OK to use. I loved my bridal hair and makeup. My eyes water easily but the makeup artist mitigated that. I didn’t need any makeup touch ups during the day, other than lipstick here and there. I usually don’t wear makeup but I still felt like myself, just more glamorous. I loved how my hair turned out, and I don’t think I needed hair touch ups. WS did alterations for my dress (purchased elsewhere), and it fit perfectly. Because the wedding moved indoors, I had to walk on carpet. We soon realized my dress HATES carpet. Within minutes, WS did alterations so my dress wouldn’t snag on carpet. Everyone was impressed with how quickly the alterations were done. WS provided a petticoat, and it helped my dress look amazing during the first dance. For flowers, I originally wanted blue to match wedding colors. Jackie advised that based on flower availability, it would be better to do mostly white flowers with blush and blue accents. We trusted her expert vision, so we deferred to her. All the flowers were spectacular. Many guests wanted to take flowers home. I am preserving my bouquet so I can keep it forever. Some things went wrong. There was rain, miscommunication, and overly enthusiastic guests being where they weren’t supposed to be. Jackie mitigated the issues as best as she could. When I was overwhelmed by guests coming down to the getting ready area, she politely ushered them away. With Jackie, I knew if I had a problem, I could hand it to her to resolve with minimal stress on my part. After the wedding, there was a significant issue with the honeymoon suite that Jackie helped book. When I informed Jackie, she immediately contacted the hotel and ensured we were compensated. We greatly enjoyed our experience with WS. If anyone asks for wedding advice, our first tip will be to contact Jackie.

. I picked Jackie as my planner and day-of coordinator, and that was one of the best decisions I made for my wedding. Jackie has so much experience and so many connections. She helped me find many of my vendors. She helped turn my wedding visions into reality, while giving great advice and keeping us on schedule. I'm amazed at how little stress I had in the month leading up to the wedding because she had helped me solidify so many details. Jackie is also super responsive, which I greatly appreciated (and needed) from my wedding planner. In addition to Jackie's services, I ended up using Wedding Story for my flowers and hair/makeup, which all turned out beautifully. Jackie, being multi-talented, even did my hair! On the day of the wedding, everything was so smooth - if anything went wrong, I don't know about it because Jackie handled it. Jackie coordinated all logistics communications with my external vendors, like cakes and favors. She and her team set up the whole venue so beautifully. And at the end of the night, she had all of my things packed up and ready to load into my friend's car. I honestly had so many guests come up to me to give their compliments to Jackie and her team, because they were so impressed by how organized they were. Can't recommend Jackie and Wedding Story enough!

to my ideas and preferences, and then she and her team worked tirelessly to exceed my expectations. They not only executed my vision flawlessly but also added their own creative touches that elevated everything to a whole new level. The consultation process was thorough and detailed. Jackie took the time to understand my style and preferences, and she provided valuable suggestions and recommendations. She and her team were always available to answer my questions and address any concerns I had. They were professional, responsive, and a pleasure to work with. On the day of the wedding, everything was perfect. The floral arrangements were stunning, the table settings were elegant, and the cake was a work of art. I received so many compliments from my guests, who were impressed by the attention to detail and the beauty of everything. Jackie and her team truly do it all. They handled everything from the floral arrangements to the cake to the table settings, and they did it with grace and professionalism. They even coordinated with other vendors to ensure that everything ran smoothly. I would highly recommend Jackie and her team to any future brides. They are experienced professionals who can make your wedding dreams come alive. They will take your vision and make it even better.

here was a lot we didn't know about weddings and she guided us through the whole process and handled nearly every part of the wedding. That included the venue, flowers, DJ, makeup/hair, tuxedo/dress rentals, and tons of small touches to make our wedding even better. She aggressively negotiated with the venues/vendors to get extra discounts and add-ons. Our wedding was beautiful and went smoothly and it was in large part due to Jackie's work.

f time. Jackie perfectly fulfilled my somewhat excessive requests with kindness and professionalism. Jackie and her team made my day beautiful and took care of everything till the end to make sure I don't miss anything. I highly recommend working with her from the beginning and mostly the same day coordination. It was my best choice to hire Jackie as part of my wedding. Thank you again for all your help!

ntil the next meeting knowing we weren't going to miss anything. She made it easy for us to get married without any hassle. Professional and cares for their clients. We built a relationship with them and they truly were a part of the wedding and not just on the sidelines. We had full trust in Jackie and her team and I recommend anyone who wants a smooth and perfect wedding to use Wedding Story. We have recommended all our friends as they were all also impressed at the dedication and attention to detail as Jackie and her team provided us with the best wedding we could ask for! Thanks so much! Hagen

t perfectly and her team members were so accommodating. 10/10 recommend her for anyone in the northern va area looking for a fabulous wedding planner!

tart? From the very beginning, Jackie was incredibly thoughtful, well planned out, and organized. She listened so attentively to our intial vision and needs (including our budget!) and laid out a plan of attack to meet everything we could dream of and more. As our wedding date came closer, she was always super responsive to our questions and ensured that we had a near stress free experience heading into the wedding. On the day of the wedding, she was flying around making sure that every single detail was perfect and that the timelines were 100% met. I've attended many weddings where so many things went haywire at the last minute, and we felt so blessed to have a wedding planner like Jackie (and her amazing staff!) who pulled the whole thing off without a hitch! She's a fantastic choice and we can't imagine a better choice! If you are lucky enough to hire Wedding Story, 10/10 would recommend!

tory has quite a few options to try on! Jackie also does wedding flowers, bridal hair and make-up along with coordination. Because she practically does EVERYTHING involved on wedding day we were ahead of schedule and relaxed. FANTASTIC ♥️♥️

as also on top of everything on the actual day of, from making sure I got cocktail hour appetizers delivered to my getting ready room while I was changing dresses to making sure guests with specific allergies had plates they could eat. She was amazing - I highly recommend her for any bride who might want a planner.

business for years, so has many connections. She was able to find better deals than what I could on my own. Not only is she and her team highly professional, but they are also so knowledgeable and kind. Planning a wedding is not easy, but thanks to Jackie, my needs were always met and she was quick to reply to all of my questions or concerns. After starting with Jackie, I became much more calm and so were my parents. All I can say is: don't wait - contact Jackie! (Ps. she is completely fluent in both English and Korean, so she has an even wider selection of vendors she can connect you to for cakes, clothing, etc.)

ing on Zoom calls and really did a phenomenal job. Her attention to details made the day perfect. We also used her company for our flowers, I must admit I was a little hesitant about 1 stop shopping but was I wrong. The flowers were absolutely gorgeous, more than one guest told me they were the best wedding flowers they have ever seen. Thank you Jackie for being part of our day

so I went through Wedding Story for flowers only. Jackie is always quick to respond to emails and made herself available for video calls as needed. She is very accommodating and made the planning process painless. I was extremely pleased with the quality and aesthetic of the floral arrangements. I would definitely recommend Wedding Story.

team - photographer, videographer, florist, and DJ. She made sure everything was done timely and properly. We are impressed by Jackie and her team, and would not hesitate to recommend her team to others.

most 4 months and we contacted Jackie because we needed to find a day of coordinator. She normally doesn’t do that but she gave us a favor and worked with us for almost a month doing all the important work. She literally responded in 5 minutes and picked up call/text so fast and I don’t know how she does that. Her teammate on our wedding day was also super skilled that she revived my DIY tacky bridesmaid bouquet in 10 minutes. I felt so bad that her team had to make up for lots of things that didn’t go as planned but she made it work like magic. I wish we hired her in the beginning of our wedding planning because she helped us bring our venue cost down so much. It’s a must to hire a wedding planner who knows how to get things done, and she is THE ONE. Highly recommend. Plus, she decorated my cake, reception tables, and welcome table with some left over flowers and the decorations she brought. Couldn’t ask for more!

her to make sure your wedding day is not only beautiful but also flawless. She had our best interest and really took care of us. Once Jackie became our coordinator, we had a peace of mind going into our wedding knowing that we were in good hands. And when it came to the day of our wedding, Jackie and her team worked in perfect sync together. They know how to blend in the background and not hinder the wedding, but they also make sure that everything goes smoothly. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding coordinator. Thank you Wedding Story!

and reschedule with all my vendors multiple times. She helped make my vision come true and she did SUCH A GREAT JOB with the flower decorations. She’s very great at negotiating and bringing the prices down when looking for a venue. She helped me navigate this world of wedding planning and she was my shield against all the other vendors that try to overcharge. I love having things be luxury but at a low price. (Who doesn’t?!) Jackie helped me elevate the luxe and elegance at my wedding and figure out which details of my wedding are unnecessary to splurge in and which areas are worth the splurge. I would recommend her to everyone. Just make sure you always have clear communication and if you ever have a question don’t hesitate to ask because that’s what she’s there for! :)

t done in such a short period of time. However Mrs. Jackie helped me find the perfect venue, flowers, cake, videographer, DJ, hair and makeup artist for the wedding. Everything was wonderful and perfect. Thank you for making our wedding day so special and beautiful! We greatly appreciate everything you did for us.

t that they are experienced professionals that know what they are doing. Wedding planning is such a stressful task, but working with this wonderful team made our lives so much easier. They knew exactly what we wanted for our wedding, and if we wanted something specific to happen, they made sure that it was done! When we didn’t know what direction to go, Ms. Jackie gave us the guidance we needed and worked with our budget. She was always quick with her responses to give us help, suggestions, or advice with everything and anything. Ms. Jackie and her team are such hard workers, and they are quick to provide for our every need. I love that Ms. Jackie was organized, prompt, and timely during the planning process and wedding day. We received so many comments from our guests about how beautiful the wedding day was and how smoothly everything went. Flower decorations were AMAZING!!! I was also very pleased with my dress, hair, and make-up. It was incredible to see everything that we had planned together come to life on the big day. I couldn’t have worked with a better team to make our wedding dreams come true!

ords. I could go on about her and the wedding story's staff... I will say this; they are AWESOME!

d wonderful and everybody at the wedding liked it a lot. My bouquet was stunning. Everything I asked for, she searched for it and found us the best options! She really is a great value and she knows what she is doing and she does well. Everything went smoothly. Thanks Jackie!!!

FREAKISHLY AMAZING AT WHAT THEY DO! During the hair and makeup trial, all the staff were extremely friendly and makes you feel like you are the only person in the world getting married! And I looked freakin amazing! They really put a lot of emphasis on details and think about how the flow of the wedding can effect the hair and makeup on the day of and we talked a lot back and forth in person, over emails about various details. The attention to details really REALLY made a difference and I was so comfortable on the day of the wedding. My makeup stayed in place, my hair stayed in place, I cried and my makeup still stayed in place... it was just a fairytale! I also did my flowers through them. I gave my budget for my flower and we got what I wanted, and we stayed VERY close to my budget! On the day of the flowers looked so beautiful and the staff came in, put everything together very smoothly. Our conversations about the flowers also made the day of extremely smooth. They taught one of our groomsmen how to take the flowers from the arch and inside to use for other things. The whole experience with them was just very unexpectedly, extremely welcoming, professional and just very well done! THEY KNOW THEIR $h!t!!

aced. Most importantly, she loves what she does therefore she will do what it takes to go beyond to make everything perfect and extra!

ue, dress, flowers, photographer, and dj for the wedding. The guests also loved the food. It was a very pleasant and stress free experience and I'm happy with the way my wedding turned out thanks to Jackie and her team.

mony and reception. They were absolutely delightful to work with and were extremely professional. Their staff is very knowledgeable about Korean customs, being Korean themselves, and how to manage a large reception party. I did not have to worry about the reception at all because they did all the work, including coordinating with vendors when they arrive, setting up everything, and gathering all of our wedding decorations so my family and I can bring it home. Anytime I asked something from the team, they would immediately act on it. Jackie made sure we stayed within our timeline by letting us know when and where we had to be. She even gathered the wedding party and family members and made sure they lined up in the correct order a head of time so we can start the reception on time. Wedding Story truly made our day relaxing and enjoyable and I highly recommend them if you are planning a wedding!

pectations, the Wedding Story was able to pull it off with superb perfection. First of all, the Wedding Story was FLEXIBLE. I thought I was an easy-going girl but closer to the wedding date I could hardly keep my words about almost everything I said. I called to reschedule appointments, complained here and there about my personal life, even asked last minute to change my rehearsal dinner dress. Yet no complaints or extra charges for those hours of me on the phone. Thanks to Jackie and her staffs, I survived and happily married. Second, the Wedding Story knows it all. I had my flowers & decoration by other vendors who had personal relationships with either me or my mom. Well, things happen at the last minute and I had to look for another vendor to do my flowers at affordable price. Of course, I was stressed and called Jackie for help. She was able to give me a list of affordable florists who are in the area and I had beautiful flowers for my wedding! I've asked millions of questions and they answered it ALL. Third, the Wedding Story has beautiful dress and jewelry selections for different body types. I have a long torso so I was concerned about picking out the dress. Well, I have to say it took us about 2 hours trying on different dresses but found the one that I got complimented by every guest on my wedding day. It was one of a kind and all loved it! I can go on and brag my experiences with the Wedding Story here but you should definitely make an appointment for a consultation. I would do another events with the Wedding Story in the future. Highly recommend this vendor for not just the wedding but other events including Baby's 1st year birthday, anniversary, and parent's birthdays, and more.

I called one more time and gave her my email address so we could try to talk that way and several hours later still no email. So I called a fourth time and was greeted by the wrong name and then told she was busy with client again. dont understand why they couldnt schedule a time to talk at another time. Decided to go with someone else. Very Dissapointing

planning, dress, tux, make-up/hair, DJ/MC, Photo, Video, flowers, Pae-Baek (Korean traditional ceremony) and cake). Jackie was amazing and very helpful from start to finish. She was always available when I had questions (via email/text...etc.) and very prompt at responding. Also, I really appreciated that she helped with budget formulation and offered a lot of tips and new ideas based on her experience. Her service was exceptional on the day of the wedding as well. Everything went seamlessly and as planned. Later I found out that there were unexpected issues that I was not aware of (guests showing up without rsvp...etc.) but Jackie and her team took care of it without me knowing. Throughout the entire day, I did not have to worry about a thing and I could just enjoy every moment of our special day. Also, we planned for an outdoor ceremony but it rained in the morning. Jackie constantly checked the weather and waited until the last minute. I really appreciated this because she could just simply set it up inside rather than waiting and rushing to set things up at the last minute. But she knew how much I wanted to have an outdoor ceremony and waited for me. Around 3 pm, rain finally stopped and Jackie set up the ceremony outside quickly. Everything was perfect. Also, Wedding Story has a large selection of high quality wedding dress and tux at affordable price. The staff even altered the tuxedo pants several times until the fit is exactly right. Overall, our wedding turned out to be perfect and we received so many compliments on our wedding. This was all possible because of Jackie and her professional coordinator team. I highly recommend Wedding Story to any brides in DC metro area. Their service was worth every $$$.

ngagement/ceremony/reception and I was able to try on as many dresses I wanted before making my final choices. They were very patient with me. (2) Photo/Video: We enjoyed all our photo sessions with our photographer, Mr. Lee. He will make sure he gets enough pictures by staying over time. Make sure you dont rush him and give him enough time especially on your wedding day. Video is a MUST! We got our videos turned around real fast, and it captured all the main moments of our wedding day. Highly recommend it. Again, ask for their package deal. (3) DJ/MC: Eddie and his team was just awesome! Best investment we made out of all~ Our guests enjoyed 4 full hours of our reception thanks to these guys. Thanks Jackie and her entire WS team for our successful December wedding :D

prices were similar. We chose wedding story because the quality of the work that Jackie and her staff put in was more valuable. Wedding story took care of all our wedding needs (wedding dress, tuxedo, hair, make up, flower, photography, planning, and pae bak) except food and venue. Everything was good. It was a beautiful wedding! :)

ding Story provided. The owner, Jackie and her staff were very helpful and friendly. They had an excellent selection of dresses and the wedding flower decorations were beautiful. They took care of me and anything I needed. Thank you again Jackie.

bride (now my wife). The shop's service was excellent from the planning phase to the day of our wedding. Jackie Yu, the owner also gave me some invaluable advises on various topics. Furthermore, Jackie helped us with our wedding ceremony coordination and there was a minor conflict with the pastor but she was gracious in the manner how she dealt with him. It was his first wedding performance in the US so he wanted to do things "his" way. The photographer also worked very hard on our wedding day. Now I'm waiting for our pictures.

e on what areas to spend money on and what we could save on. She provided a lot of visual elements and also did the work herself in making sure that everything looked wonderful. She helped us negotiate with vendors and made sure they were reliable and did their job to a high standard. I loved the makeup artist, hair stylist, photobooth vendor, and dj that she found for us. I LOVED the dress that she suggested for me, and received so many compliments on it. She also helped us find a venue that worked well with us and looked great. She made sure that we, and our families were calm, cool, and collected. Her work made it possible for my husband and I to enjoy our wedding reception instead of feeling worried about all the details. I can not say enough how much her personal touches really made this wedding!

rs and bridal party so that everything worked out perfectly on the wedding day. Although we had 480 guests, 30 more than expected, Jackie had all the events start exactly on time and everything was seamless. She also worked very well with the other vendors by being the point of contact. Everything was exponentially less stressful because of Wedding Story.

tle detail exactly the way I wanted it. Everyone who came to our wedding told us that our wedding was the most beautiful wedding they had ever been to. Jackie helped make our wedding more beautiful and more memorable than even I could imagine. I am so happy that we chose Wedding Story for our wedding and I recommend everyone around me to go to Wedding Story for their wedding.

and helped our wedding, and she was passionated our wedding on rehearsal, ceremony, reception. When I got to convention center two hour ago from wedding. She set up the wedding hall and reception table beautifully. She is wonderful! Basically, She was very planned for everything. She always watched my status from few weeks ago, and she checked what I need to. There were some staffs with her. They are all nice and professional. I firmly recommend to you!
