Hey, I’m Yi -Your Wedding Planner,
Wedding planner, design lover, professional problem-solver, and firm believer that the best celebrations involve really good food, people you adore, and at least one questionable decision on the dance floor.
I’m here to make sure the details are handled, so you can be present for everything else.I fell in love with wedding planning because of the way a celebration can bring so many meaningful pieces of your life into one place. The nervous energy before the ceremony. Your mom fixing one last detail. The way the room feels right before dinner begins. Your best friend already crying before you’ve even walked down the aisle.
Those are the moments I want you to actually experience.
Of course, I love the beautiful details too. The florals, the stationery, the lighting, the thoughtful tablescapes, the perfect linens, and all the little design choices that make a wedding feel like yours. I could happily obsess over those details all day.
But beautiful details mean so much more when they’re surrounded by real people, real emotion, and a celebration that feels effortless.
That balance has become the heart of my work: thoughtful planning and intentional design, without ever losing sight of the people and memories at the center of it all.
I want your wedding to be beautiful...But I want you to experience it to be even better.
As your planner, I never want you spending your wedding day worrying about timelines, vendors, setup, or what needs to happen next.
I want you to remember the champagne. The nerves. The hugs. The slightly chaotic getting-ready room. The way your person looked at you during the ceremony. The laughter during dinner. And the moment everyone collectively decided it was time to take their shoes off.
My job is to take care of everything happening behind the scenes so you can stay fully present for everything happening right in front of you.
Because a beautiful wedding matters, but how you felt on that day matters even more.
A little more about me.
I’m a Bay Area wedding planner with a soft spot for beautiful details, good food, well-thought-out plans, and weddings that actually feel like the couple getting married.
Planning has always come very naturally to me. I’ve always been the person organizing the group, making the reservation, checking the details twice, and somehow ending up with the itinerary.
Yes, I’m that friend with the plan.
I really fell in love with weddings after helping plan my sister-in-law’s wedding. I loved the pretty details, of course, but what really got me was everything happening behind the scenes - making sure people were where they needed to be, the timeline was moving, the setup looked right, and the couple could actually enjoy themselves.
That experience eventually led me to start Yiventful Co.
Now I get to combine my love for planning, design, logistics, and a really good detail moment to create weddings that feel thoughtful, personal, and very much like the people I’m planning them for.
When it comes to design, I’m always looking for ways to bring your love story, cultures, travels, and favorite memories into the day.
You want all your guests to try your favorite childhood snack? Let’s do it.
You want to incorporate lanterns as a nod to your culture? I’m your girl.
You fell in love with a color, dish, destination, or tiny detail from one of your trips together? Let’s find a way to make it part of the celebration.
To me, the best wedding design isn’t just pretty - it feels like your love story and it’s intentional.
I take planning your wedding very seriously.
Outside of weddings, I’m usually trying a new restaurant, playing pickleball, traveling, sending way too many memes to my friends, or planning the next trip before the current one is even over.
Fun fact: I hiked Mount Fuji in Japan. It took 19 hours, I was exhausted, and for some reason I would absolutely do it again.
Which, honestly, probably tells you everything you need to know about me: I love a good challenge, I’m always up for an adventure, and I’ll probably send you a meme somewhere along the way.
I’ve told you about me…
Now I want to hear about you.
Tell me how you met.
Tell me where you’re getting married.
Tell me about the dress you can't stop thinking about, the people you're flying across the world to celebrate with, and the part of the day you're most excited to experience.
Give me all the details.
I have a feeling we’re going to make something beautiful together.
