Lovely Time Weddings & Events
Chinese Wedding Planners • San Francisco, CA
About
Bay Area based boutique offering month-of, partial, and full service planning, recognized by Martha Stewart Weddings. Bilingual in English and Mandarin.
🍵 Editorial Take
Couples rave about how seamlessly Li Zhang and coordinator Michelle run the day. Reviewers praise their calm, hands-on presence on the day itself, and one bride appreciated that Li spoke directly with Chinese-speaking guests in Chinese, which made a real difference for families where not everyone is comfortable in English. She's well-versed in tea ceremonies, and has even performed them abroad in destinations like Bali. Her design sensibility leans personal and detail-oriented rather than cookie-cutter, and clients describe her as someone who keeps a close eye on budget without letting it show in the final result. She's also known for quick pivots when things go sideways, including moving a full outdoor reception indoors two hours before it started. If you want to incorporate cultural traditions in a stylish and intentionally-designed wedding, she's worth a conversation early.
