Unique Events by Lina

Lina is the person you need at your side on your wedding day! Seriously. During our rehearsal, she helped coordinate the process and she thought of every detail to help streamline our ceremony. During our wedding day, she was always around to handle and resolve any unplanned issue that came up. She made prompt decisions. Her ability to make prompt decisions was important for us because it alleviated the stress in decision-making and allowed us to really enjoy the moment during our BIG day. We thank Lina and her team wholeheartedly because Lina made the day PERFECT for us.

Lina and her team did an AMAZING job for my husband and I's wedding this past June 2021. Lina was organized, helpful, reliable, and so easy to get along with when it came to planning our wedding. The day of the wedding we had some issues that came up and I was lucky enough to have Lina there to help. Also, the day of our wedding it was probably the hottest day in the Central Valley. However, I never saw or heard one complaint from Lina and her team. They were professional, helpful, and super sweet to both of us and all our guests. I am so happy with Lina's work and dedication! I highly encourage anyone to book her not only just for weddings, but for any kind of event. Pictures by: MKL Photography

I was super excited to work with Lina. I met her at the Wedding Walk that Lincoln Center hosted at the beginning of the year. When my fiancé and I decided it was time to start planning our wedding, she was one of the first vendors I reached out to. In mid-October I booked a consultation for the following month, filled out a questionnaire, and paid the $50 consultation fee. A couple weeks went by and I got an email from Lina stating that she had been in the hospital with COVID/pneumonia and was then going to be out of state for 3 weeks and needed to reschedule my consultation. Cool...totally fine. My time is super limited, so the only time I could do before the end of the year was the following Friday. She emailed back a few days later asking what the earliest time I could do that day was. Assuming that we were going to meet that following Friday, I cancelled an appointment after her email and made myself available for the day. After that, she went silent. On the day I had thought we were going to meet, I still had not heard from her. I emailed her that I no longer felt comfortable moving forward with her and I wanted to have my consultation fee refunded. She emailed back immediately stating that she would process the refund and that her father was in the hospital and was being moved into hospice and her time and attention was being focused somewhere else. While I completely understand and have sympathy for her situation, I find it interesting and frustrating that she was still able to post multiple Instagram stories and pictures on a daily basis during nearly a week of disregarding me and responded within EIGHT MINUTES when I voiced that I wasn't going to be using her services. After 4 weeks I still had not received my refund. I emailed her about it again in the hopes of not having to waste my time requesting a chargeback from my bank. I received a rather blunt response stating that she would "look into it". It has been a few days and surprise, surprise...no response or refund. For someone who preaches that her time is precious and valuable, she sure doesn't care about wasting others.I understand life happens, but for me...I need a vendor who can effectively communicate in a timely manner and not leave you in the dark for days or weeks at a time. Judging by her other low reviews and general attitude, I'm glad I dodged a bullet with one of the most important vendors you hire for a wedding.

I would be very careful doing business with this person. I purchased tickets to an event, they postponed it and said it would be rescheduled in a few months. The event was supposed to take place in August and I reached out a several weeks ago to get a refund since as of writing this I have not heard of a new date they plan to reschedule. She replied to my initial email asking what the refund was for and stopped responding when I provided her with the details. I can't be the only person in this situation. How many of other peoples money did she keep? I am just trying to recover my money for an Event they canceled without any further communication.

I absolutely loved everything about our day !! Thanks to Lina. She definitely listens to what you want and like. I gave her all my ideas and she brought it to life. I definitely recommend hiring her for any party needs, she's amazing.

I'm extremely happy & 100% satisfied in all the work you did and in my gorgeous setup! Thank you for making my vision come to life and giving me a stress free wedding day. It's hard for me to give up control in party situations, so I was a little apprehensive but I'm so glad I left it in your hands because you sure did deliver that day. I admire your work, your determination, and your skill. If I had to do it again, (which I won't ever lol) I'd still choose you. Thank you again!

Lina is AMAZING. I worked with her for over a year to plan our wedding day and she made the process so easy and smooth. She consistently had meetings with us to ensure everything was on track and was available whenever I had questions. She has so many beautiful options for decor to choose from. I seriously don't know how I would have gotten through the day without. She kept everything in line and on schedule. Not only is she professional but she knows how to have fun too and that's what you need on such a busy day. If you're looking for a planner/ coordinator, Lina is your girl!

Writing this review as a guest of a recent wedding. First off, yes the venue she decorated was beautiful however, the cons outweigh the one pro in this case. This lady and her crew are rude AF. I personally saw her talk aggressively to many guest, including the bride and groom's family. For instance, the bride's mother decorated and made the dessert table herself. I was sitting next to that table and it was beautiful. When the bride's mom was placing desserts at the table, this lady yelled at her and told mom to sit down. Then I saw and heard her yell at dad when he was going to step outside to get something. This is not her wedding to be yelling at guest let alone the bride's parents. During the reception, I saw both bride and groom's mom passing out thank you gifts to the guest. These gifts were inside a white box. As her team were cleaning up, they were just throwing everything away. These are obviously things you can put aside or just leave on the tables. I noticed them throwing them away and saw the mine was gone. When I went to ask them why they are just throwing these things away, the guy said "you should pick up your stuff." Money was spent on these things, you don't just throw them away. As I was reading the reviews, I noticed one say that she took some personal decorations from another bride that she never received back. I heard that is what happened with this wedding too. Apparently her crew picked up some of the bride and groom's personal decorations to which they have reached out to get back but no action on her part has been made. It really seems like she gets paid and does whatever TF she wants after. I'm sorry, but if a guest is noticing all of these mistakes and rude actions I can't imagine what the bride and groom saw. I know this bride and she is just way too kind to write a review herself. I hate that her and the groom got taken advantage of, and that her family was treated so horribly by this woman. Hire her as you wish. Just know your family will be treated horribly.

We just had a beautiful wedding this past June. It's hard to put into words how amazing Lina is. As a person she is kind, genuine, & respectful. As a wedding coordinator, she is the best! I seriously don't know what we would have done without her! All of the inventory was in great condition. Everything that was decorated was perfect & I will never forget the moment the room was revealed to us. It was surreal that the vision came to life. There were a few hiccups with the venue that we found out about the next day. We had no idea of anything. She worked with my parents & everything was handled while my husband & I enjoyed our night as if nothing was happening. Lina & her team are the best around! We love you forever uniqueevents! -The Gayagoys

I hired Lina for month-of coordination for my wedding and she was an absolute gem. Everything ran so smoothly and she made sure my family and I had nothing to stress about day-of. She was quick to respond if I had any questions and super professional. She found me an officiant when mine flaked the day before our rehearsal. Highly, highly recommend hiring Lina for your wedding!
