Hi, I’m Celia!

Falling in love with weddings is how Celia started her wedding planning business back in 2012. She thrives on the seamless synchronicity of all the different wedding details and basks in the excitement and joy of her clients as the magical day unfolds. 

Celia is able to assist clients in planning their distinct occasions in Bay Area’s most exclusive wedding venues where they can showcase fabulous décor and design. With each new couple, she continues to be inspired to help create something as unique as the couple themselves. For Celia, weddings are all about the passion for crafting lifelong memories for her clients.

Celia brings a wealth of knowledge to Chinese weddings as well as other Eastern Asian weddings that extends well beyond planning a wedding or just handling the logistics of the wedding day. Her Chinese heritage also gives her special insights on the emotional side of familial expectations, cultural requirements, and how to act as the go-between parents and the couple when required. Her language assets have been called upon when dealing with Chinese caterers, wait staff, and chefs whose primary language is not English. She often interfaces with guests during the wedding to ensure that they are enjoying the wedding experience.
