A collection of kind words from our clients
Lesley & Brian
Berlyn was an excellent planner/day-of-coordinator for our wedding in June. Berlyn came up with an extremely detailed itinerary for her and the other vendors to follow which made me feel reassured that eveyone was on the same page. We really did not have to worry about anything. She was attentive, meticulous, solution-oriented and not to mention a great person to work with. We are not easy people to impress but she definitely did a fantastic job. We are so glad that we entrustrd Berlyn to coordinate our big day because we only have great memories! We wish Berlyn all the success in the world in her career in the wedding industry!

Thanks to Berlyn, I didn’t have to worry about anything come my wedding day – she coordinated everything – the time everything needed to take place, when and where the photographer and videographer had to be, the flowers etc. It made our wedding day a breeze and we could just relax and enjoy. We had 130 guests and wanted it to feel very personal – Berlyn, who has great creative instincts, helped turn our vision of the day into a reality. She was also very responsive when I needed to talk to her, and worked with us to accommodate our busy schedules. I could not have pulled it off without her.
Allison & Danny
My husband and I were engaged for two years. With our busy schedules, we did not have time to plan our own wedding. We were very fortunate to have hired Berlyn as our wedding planner. Some may say that I am a control freak at times… However, she made it easy for me to trust her with planning and executing the most important day of our lives. She goes above and beyond!!! Not only is she professional and organized – above all, she has a great personality and is easy to work with. We had our wedding at Colette Café. My bridal party even commented and said that the day was very relaxing and they didn’t even have to look at the schedule! Berlyn ensured that we knew exactly where to go at all times. I sincerely feel that we could not have had a more amazing wedding. Our wedding was exactly how we wanted it to feel – an upscale dinner party with our closest family and friends.
We’ve already referred several of our friends to Berlyn! Also – we are thinking of renewing our vows in 5 years and will definitely ask her to plan this event as well!! 🙂

We originally were going to opt out of a wedding planner but were recommended BLoved Events. From the first meeting with Berlyn, we knew that we wanted to go with her. She was professional, detail oriented, approachable and organized. We hired Berlyn for her month of services. From day one she began taking notes during our meeting and she remembered the littlest details. She always picked up her phone and responded right away when she was contacted. She was there to offer her ear when we were stressed out. She was apt to deal with any issues we had with the vendors and acted as the mediator to take the stress off of us. Many of our guests commented, saying that our wedding ran very smoothly and that the sequence of events were well planned throughout the reception, all thanks to Berlyn and her organized schedule. She is EXTREMELY EFFICIENT. She kept us on the ball and brought to our attention certain things we may have overlooked (i.e. floral delivery locations). We are extremely satisfied with her services and had we not already booked most of our vendors, we would have hired her for full wedding planning services. We would highly recommend her to other couples. She is an outstanding A++++++++ wedding planner!

This vendor is highly recommended. My spouse and I were planning a wedding in Canada while working in Washington, DC. We needed someone to help us coordinate the details and have eyes on decisions we were not on the ground to make. Berlyn Lai of BLoved Events was a god-send and we partly attribute the success of our event to her. She provided hair, make up, florist and DJ recommendations, managed the flowers entirely, oversaw the sourcing and set up of decorations, generated the final run-down, coordinated with other service providers and the wedding MC’s, and was on the ground the day prior and day of to ensure a perfect event. When you hire Berlyn and BLoved events, you employ the most important thing a couple needs during wedding planning – peace of mind. She was quick to respond to emails and skype call requests, patient with tough-to-make decisions, honest in her advice and extremely pleasant to work with. I also admire Berlyn as a person. She is beautiful inside and out, a mother, wife and professional. She understands that life can pull you in multiple directions but yet she made the time to ensure our lives were that much easier before our big day. Thank you Berlyn for everything you have done for us. We will never forget it.
Tricia & Bernard
We were so lucky to have Berlyn’s help planning our wedding – we could not have done it without her! She helped us quickly identify the best vendors for our day based on our budget and style – we loved everyone she helped us select from the florist, to the DJ to some creative special touches she suggested. She has an amazing network in the GTA and removes the stress of finding the right people. She was also a great source of ideas to help us personalize the day and had a number of suggestions that we never would have thought of – even after hours on Pinterest!. She kept us organized along the way and checked in with us often to make sure everything was on track. The month before the wedding and day of she was invaluable….it really let us enjoy the day knowing that she was taking care of everything. I’m sure things went wrong but we never knew it….she just takes care of everything and makes sure you and your guests have a great day!

Berlyn was my full wedding planner, and she was simply indispensable. Without her our wedding would not have happened… literally.
From the early days of planning, she had a great grasp of what we wanted for our wedding and made finding a venue and vendors so easy. All her recommendations matched our style and vision, and all the vendors we worked with were amazing professionals that we wouldn’t have found otherwise. When our initial venue closed down 4 months before the wedding (unforeseen circumstances), she had several comparable options identified for us in 24 hours and got us back on track in a few days. On the day of our wedding she had everything covered and kept the day running smoothly, allowing my husband and I, along with our families, to relax and enjoy every moment of the day.
Most importantly for me, Berlyn was someone I could trust and I knew that anything I asked would be looked after and done right. That gave me great piece of mind in the last stressful months of planning, and especially on the day of, which for me was invaluable. Thank you for everything Berlyn, and we’ll give you a call if we ever do this again 🙂
Christine & Victor
My husband and I had the pleasure of first meeting Berlyn last August when she was my best friends’ wedding planner. After an amazing wedding without a glitch, we knew we had to book Berlyn’s services for our wedding this past May! Words cannot fully describe how wonderful Berlyn was during the year leading up to and on our big day. From advice on concepts/decor to taking care of tiny glitches on the day of (like a last minute defect on a bridesmaids dress), to executing our vision perfectly, our wedding day was so wonderful and stress-free because of Berlyn’s professionalism, kindness, and inherent characteristic to always go the extra mile!
Berlyn has all the qualities we were looking for in a day-of wedding planner! She is extremely organized, a phenomenal problem solver, and provides great advice (really about anything we inquired about). She provided an amazing wedding day schedule, worked well with all of our vendors, and was so personable with our family and friends. We would highly recommend Berlyn to anyone looking for a planner who is truly talented, will execute your wedding vision with perfection, and mostly importantly, will facilitate a stress-free wedding day!

Berlyn from Bloved Events made my wedding a special and unique occasion. She is exceptionally creative – helping us to design a theme all around travel, while on a budget. In preparation for the wedding, she supported us to select the best vendors in Toronto, and managed everything leading up to the big day. For the day of, Berlyn single handedly allowed me to enjoy my own wedding – managing any headaches that came up, keeping us on schedule, and supporting the entire cast of characters (managing friends, family and vendors) I would recommend Bloved Events for every bride that wants a flawless, perfect wedding, without any of the typical headaches!
Karain & Derrick
“Oh no, I left the laptop for the slideshow at home!” the bride said to her groom in a panicked tone. “Don’t worry – I’ll talk to the DJ and see if we can get it setup somehow,” reassured the awesome wedding coordinator. (3 minutes later) “We have a laptop and everything’s good to go,” Berlyn announced. (:
We can’t express how thankful we were to have had Berlyn’s help leading up to the wedding and on the big day. Berlyn helped keep us on track all day long so we didn’t even think about the schedule or what was supposed to happen, which made us be truly in the moment and enjoy the day. Her speedy responses were always much appreciated and Berlyn helped us think of little things that we would have missed otherwise. She is very detail-oriented and a calm problem solver, so much so that we didn’t really know about any ’emergencies’ that happened on our wedding day – Berlyn handled everything like a pro. Berlyn and her assistant did such an amazing job with decorating the ceremony and reception space. We received so many compliments from family members and friends about how it looked and how it was a perfect reflection of the two of us. Berlyn’s work speaks for itself. We are so grateful for her skills as an impeccable wedding coordinator and for her reassurance on the big day. We felt so comfortable leaving everything in her hands and we couldn’t ask for more.
Kristina & Andrew
Berlyn did a wonderful job as my day-of coordinator. I also hired Berlyn to manage florals, and all rentals relating to table settings. I had envisioned my centerpieces arranged in vintage jugs, and she sourced a great supplier that offered exactly what I was after. On the day, everything ran very smoothly, thanks to the extremely detailed itinerary Berlyn put together. She liaised with all my vendors to ensure everyone was on the same page, and made sure everyone was where they needed to be at the right time. Overall, Berlyn was incredibly organized, responsive to emails, and provided creative solutions when I was unsure about anything.
Overall, I am so happy with how everything came together on the day, and I couldn’t have done it without the help of Berlyn. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for day-of or full wedding planning services!!!!
