Naomi Bennett Design - Irvine, California

Elizabeth Wu

Let me just say that Naomi literally saved my wedding planning experience and honestly made my wedding day the classic romantic vision I've always dreamed about within a budget! I decided to get Naomi's partial planning package because we planned to have a Catholic ceremony and then a reception at a different venue. However, if I could do it again with an unlimited budget, I would have had Naomi plan the entire thing because if it wasn't for her, I would have lost my mind from the very beginning. She is patient, offers amazing vendor recommendations, and actually listens to your concerns about everything from linens to big topics like staying within our budget. Did I mention that she also transformed our blank slate reception venue into a proper GORGEOUS space fitting for a wedding? She executed everything flawlessly and our wedding day went by without even a single hiccup! Working with Naomi was literally the best part of wedding planning and I highly recommend you to stop reading this review and just hire her already!

I ADORE NAOMI of Bowties and Bouquets! She is one of my most preferred vendors to work with - Naomi truly is an incredible woman who works tirelessly to bring every single event she is entrusted with to life. You don't have to speak with her long to see that she genuinely cares about her clients. She will listen well to her client's needs offering inspiration, advice, and expert-planning with careful attention to every last detail. I have personally seen Naomi go the extra mile for her clients, time and time again because she genuinely cares about them. I've had the privilege of working alongside Naomi many, many times and I will many times again. She always communicates clearly, provides great direction and will always be ready to jump on the phone to chat about the dream and vision of her clients. It's my pleasure to work with someone who produces such a high calibre of work and who will raise the bar for excellence no matter what she touches. Naomi, you're amazing!!!

I've had the pleasure of working with Naomi from Bowties & Bouquets on a number of occasions. She is professional, creative, organized and fun! She is also kind-hearted, and values her clients and their journey.

She is the bff you'd want to take lead on your fairytale wedding day. She is sweet and knowledgeable, instantly making you feel at ease. As a photographer, I appreciate her communication skills and her dedication to creating a once in a lifetime event - she spends the time needed to research and plan for any occasion.

She is known for ethereal, romantic and unique designs and I've seen first hand how she's turned an idea to tangible art. Naomi is truly a gem and anyone/everyone would be very lucky to work with her!!

Thank you Naomi, for all that you do!!

We highly recommend Naomi and Bowties & Bouquets to help with the planning and execution of a perfect event! Naomi is such a wonderful person to work with and was always pleasant, prepared, and professional. Everything from her communication to her ideas and suggestions were exactly what we wanted in a coordinator! She thought of everything...including things I hadn't considered and was totally calm and collected when dealing with plans changing or issues arising. Throughout the process, we really enjoyed working with Naomi and would definitely recommend her beautiful work!

I got to be apart of Naomi vendor team on a recent photoshoot. Her work is immaculate. I have been watching her work for a while but now personally got to see her in action. She is organized and calming through out the process but flexible to suit the situation. From the most stunning I mean stunning flat lay to getting all the social media content you would like and need to a fabulous planner Naomi is your girl. If her style resonates with you I would say hire her for your wedding or business needs.

I could easily keep this review short and sweet and say that Naomi was a dream to work with (all true by the way) but that wouldn’t do it justice for how above and beyond she went for our 2021 wedding.

To start with, I met Naomi through instagram as most people do with vendors these days. Personally, I was at the bottom of the barrel with wedding planning.. a month in and I was feeling burnt out from trying to do it all myself. Feeling lost, I messaged her in response to a post she had made. Without having any indication of who I was, Naomi was willing to chat with me and hear all about my concerns and answer my questions. From there, she was able to introduce me to the idea of a “micro wedding” and in the height of the pandemic, the appeal was there! An immediate family-only celebration without skimping out on our must-haves.
Over the course of a little more than a year, Naomi guided us through the process with such grace. She knew our personal craziness trying to navigate teaching students online from home, much less try to figure out how to plan a wedding in the middle of a pandemic. Communication was key for us and Naomi didn’t skip out on that. On top of it all, the attention to detail alongside her input was what stood out the most on our journey.

It was in this process of seeking out the rest of our star team that I started to understand the in’s and out’s of this lucrative industry. An industry that was and is slowly recovering from a pandemic.

I slowly started to realize from Naomi's emails and instagram posts that you gain so much when you make personal connections with those in this industry and see the work and detail that they put into their passions. This became a driving force in how my husband and I wanted to go about wedding planning.

Our wedding day went so smoothly, and I wish we could relive that special day all over again. Naomi brought our vision to life and executed it so well! These days, I'm on my little soapbox trying to get my newly engaged friends to understand what goes on behind the scenes within a vendor’s business or the purpose of a flatlay shoot. Behind Naomi Bennett Design is the most caring, hardworking, will fight for you to the end, woman who wants the very best for you. While it makes me so sad to be finished with wedding planning, I am so grateful to have stumbled across her instagram back in 2020 where I found not only the best wedding planner there ever was but a forever friend!

We cannot even begin to express our thanks and love for Naomi at Bowties & Bouquets. From the very beginning, Naomi was very professional, direct and intentional while being so genuine, caring, and kind. She took the time to listen to our ideas and dreams in helping us figure out how to bring them to life. She found our venue that we fell in love with but didn’t think we could get it with our budget. Naomi talked to the venue and organized an option for us that would fit the bill and dream. All throughout planning, Naomi actively worked very hard to help us plan and stay on top of all the things we needed to do while fighting to help ensure we would get what we envisioned. We honestly thought we were organized people, but working with Naomi showed us that there is a reason why we are not wedding planners! She and her team are such sweet, kind and genuine people who work hard and care for you. Most of all, due to the COVID-19, we had to push up our wedding to two weeks before. Naomi quickly and efficiently worked to help us retain our major vendors for a future vow renewal date. She was calm, involved and most of all, extremely caring and compassionate. We might not have had the original wedding we planned, but Naomi worked so hard for us to have the most intimate, beautiful wedding at such short notice. We’re so thankful to be a B&B couple and most definitely recommend Naomi and her team! WE LOVE YOU!

Updated - As a follow up to my previous review, we had our wedding in November and couldn’t recommend Naomi’s excellent services enough. From planning to execution, she was always attentive, supportive, highly organized and detail oriented. She has been such a loyal, trustworthy, positive, kind and professional force of nature who we could always count on 100%, and we couldn't be more grateful. We’ll never forget the moment that we saw the set up come to life in person — Naomi executed and facilitated our long-awaited dream vision so perfectly — we were in awe, and in heaven all night! She also brought with her an exceptional team of assistants for the wedding day. Naomi also has great follow through in ensuring everything was taken care of completely and stress-free for us, even after the wedding was over. We’re so grateful to have found her and would highly recommend working with her.

Naomi is always there for you with respect, patience, knowledge, guidance and dedication. She brings passion and enthusiasm to work and to her communication in a way that makes you feel valued and even more excited for your wedding day. My fiancé and I trust her completely, and sincerely appreciate her method of working and consulting throughout the planning process. We can’t wait to celebrate with Naomi in Spring 2021!
