A Dream Team for Any Weddings

We are HuandSun Photography based in Vancouver, BC, Canada. We had the pleasure of working with the Shing Events & Weddings team during J & V’s wedding in June 2025, and our experience with them was truly exceptional.

From the very beginning, their professionalism and calm, confident coordination set the tone for the entire day.

Shing’s team is incredibly attentive to detail. We really appreciate not just the way they care for the couple, but also how they anticipate the needs of every vendor involved. As photographers, we felt genuinely supported. They constantly checked in with us, made sure we had the space and time we needed, and seamlessly facilitated every moment to make sure our sessions go as smooth as possible.

Their ability to read situations, stay one step ahead, speaks volumes about their experience and intelligence as planners. Most importantly, they work with sincerity, kindness, and a true dedication to creating the best possible experience for the couple and all vendors on site.

It was genuinely a joy to collaborate with Shing Events & Weddings, and we can’t recommend them highly enough if you’re looking for a team that is both exceptionally skilled and wonderful to work with.

We absolutely look forward to working with your team again in the future guys. Have a wonderful holiday season and see you again next year.

If Weddings Were Group Projects, They Deserves All the Credit!

We can’t thank Lisa and Eva enough for making our wedding day so seamless and unforgettable! She handled everything, from the planning and rehearsals to coordinating with vendors, with so much grace and professionalism.
Everything ran so smoothly from our tea ceremony to the church ceremony and all the way through the reception. We didn’t have to worry about a single thing because she was always one step ahead, making sure every detail was perfect.
Thank you for your energy, kindness, and for making the whole day flow effortlessly. We truly felt at peace knowing you were taking care of everything behind the scenes. Highly recommend Shing Weddings to any couple who wants their wedding to be stress-free and beautifully organized!

Amazing wedding planners!

We were connected with Shing through a mutual friend. Eva was our planner and our wedding day was perfect. She had every detail pinned down and ensured that we got our perfect wedding. She has an honest and practical approach to wedding planning, ensuring that budgets are met but the resulting wedding experience is first class for the couple and the guests. Her warm, calm, pleasant and unflappable demeanor assured us that our day would be executed flawlessly and it was! I can genuinely say that she made the wedding planning process painless. We also saw how well respected and liked Shing is by our other vendors, which says so much about their services.

Extra shout-outs to Jon, Hannah and Martina for being by our side, making sure we were fed and watered the whole day.

Wonderland Magic

We honestly couldn’t have asked for a more incredible wedding planner than Michelle. From the very beginning, she took every bit of inspiration we had: Pinterest mood boards, half-baked ideas, and a wild Alice in Wonderland theme and transformed it into something far beyond our imagination. The ceremony was elegant and seamless, and the reception was an eccentric, magical dream that people are still talking about.

What impressed us most was Michelle’s level of dedication and communication. She would be up working at 2 a.m., messaging us before we even woke up, always available for a Zoom call, and somehow managing to respond instantly no matter the hour. Every concern was addressed with patience, clarity, and solutions backed by her experience. Michelle didn’t just follow our vision—she elevated it, offering creative ideas and thoughtful touches we never would have dreamed of on our own.

Her efficiency and resourcefulness blew us away. Michelle anticipated challenges, had backup plans ready for everything, and even used her industry connections to help us save money where possible. Despite juggling other weddings, she made us feel like we were her only clients. In just eight months, she pulled off what most would consider impossible.

We first found Michelle because she planned a friend’s wedding, and now after experiencing her work ourselves, we can’t recommend her highly enough. If you want a planner who is dedicated, creative, patient, hyper-organized, and who will make you feel completely supported every step of the way—Michelle is the one. Truly a once-in-a-lifetime professional for a once-in-a-lifetime day.

500000 stars for Shing Weddings! Especially our planner Eva! She understood exactly what I want and need. Organised everything in place for a perfect timing as well. I was never stressed about things would go wrong, because she got my back🥳

Thank you so much for bringing our dream wedding into a real show☺️ everything was just perfect, went smooth! We wouldn't be able to do all these things without Eva❤️

Big cheers for Lisa and Shing wedding's team on the day of. Crystal support me so well during the day. Jon was super amazing and I was planning to get photos of every single of you, but got busy with guests so I'm very sad I don't have pictures with you guys.

The BEST wedding planners

Michelle and Lisa are exceptional wedding planners! We truly could not have imagined how our big day would have gone without the two of them there. Like every wedding, there were a few inevitable hiccups, but they handled everything so seamlessly that my husband and I didn’t even realize anything had gone wrong until after the fact—that alone speaks volumes about their professionalism and talent.

As two busy working professionals, it was challenging to stay on top of deadlines and decisions. Michelle and Lisa were endlessly patient with us, and Michelle’s gentle nudges kept us on track without ever feeling pressured.

They are incredibly organized, thoughtful, and truly think of everything. We came in with very little knowledge of Chinese wedding traditions, but they guided us every step of the way—offering advice, suggestions, and reminders for every detail and tradition we needed to include.

We are beyond grateful for their hard work, expertise, and kindness. We couldn’t recommend them more highly—you need Michelle and Lisa in your life!

Best planners ever!

We’re beyond grateful for Eva, Lisa, and the incredible Shing team. From start to finish, they were organized, attentive, and truly exceptional.

Eva, our lead planner, went above and beyond. Her support made the entire process feel effortless, and our day was absolutely perfect because of her.

If you want a planner who will exceed expectations and make you feel truly supported, go with The Shing team. We can’t thank them enough!

Dream wedding

Wow!! I can’t believe it’s my turn to write a review for Shing! I first met Lisa and the Shing Team when my best friend got married in 2018. I knew instantly that I wanted Shing to be apart of our big day. We got engaged in 2023 and Shing was the FIRST vendor we contacted and hired. Our wedding was on June 14, 2025!

I thoroughly enjoyed planning the wedding so we hired Shing just for day of coordination. However, the entire team went above and beyond! I felt like we had a wedding planner! We first worked with Eva as our head coordinator and later Lisa took over that role! Eva and Lisa sent us countless emails for the past 2 years of planning, were prompt, professional and so fun and easy to work with! We honestly felt like we became great friends with them!

On the day of the wedding Lisa, Michelle and the rest of the team joined. Michelle never left my side and helped me with everything that I didn’t even know I needed! She got me in and out of 3 outfit changes, helped me with my change in hairdo, made sure I ate, etc. Not only that my family was all taken care of down to making sure grandpa always had a hot pot of tea at all time! Thank you so much Lisa, Eva, Michelle and the rest of the Shing Team! You made the best day of our lives so stress free and memorable! Our family and friends couldn’t stop talking about how professional our team was!! Thank you again!! You guys are absolutely the best!!

The best part of our wedding!

There are not enough words to express our love and gratitude for Shing Weddings. Even coming from out-of-province, we knew before we even chose our venue that we wanted Shing Weddings to be our planner. Michelle was our principal planner, but simply just "planner" is an understatement to describe the amount of care and attention that she put into our wedding journey. She guided us, reminded us, stepped in for us, stood up for us, and took care of us over the course of two years as we navigated the wedding industry in Vancouver.

Shing Weddings has a stellar reputation in the wedding industry. Every single vendor we met with raved about the organization of Michelle and her team and every single vendor always assured us that we were in good hands. Shing also has strong connections to vendors as they had endless suggestions no matter how picky or discouraged we felt throughout the vendor selection process. Michelle's patience for us made us feel like we made the best possible selection for our list of vendors. We are still in awe of how even though we know Michelle was planning hundreds and hundreds of weddings alongside ours, she prioritized us so highly that we truly felt like she was only planning ours.

Our wedding day was above and beyond anything we could have ever imagined. Every single detail was thought out with the most care and attention. Even when the timeline changed, Michelle was quick to fill in and it continued to flow as if we had planned for it all along. We also had the privilege of being taken care of by Lisa, Eva, and Jon all day long. Together, they are a force to be reckoned with. Our family members and wedding party cannot stop talking about how pampered they felt and how much fun they had because no one needed to worry about a single thing. My favorite part was watching Michelle and her team enjoy the day and each other's company. They clearly love what they do and they have fun doing it! They are the ultimate dream team!

Thank you, Michelle and Shing Weddings, for being a part of the best day of our lives. We are so sad our wedding journey has come to an end, but so thankful you were here for all of it. You have played such a vital part in our love story and if we could do it all again, you would be our first choice forever.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
