We worked with Nicholas from Curate for our wedding reception and he was amazing. We chose him because he was clearly experienced and super organized, and he made the whole process feel easy. We were planning from abroad, so everything was virtual, but he was always responsive (honestly 7 days a week) and really easy to work with. He knew all the vendors and helped secure the ones I wanted. There was a lot of back and forth with us and my dad, but he handled all the changes so smoothly. On the day of, everything was executed perfectly, we didn’t have to worry about anything and just got to enjoy. Highly recommend!

Nicholas was an absolute lifesaver for our wedding. We knew that organizing everything in such a short window would be a challenge, especially with me being 13 hours away from the bride and our planning team. Nicholas went above and beyond to accommodate our schedules and requests. Thanks to his expertise and excellent vendor recommendations, our wedding day was perfect. We couldn't have done it without him!

Nicholas from Curate deserves more than 5 stars. With his many years of experience in the wedding industry, he brought calm, structure, and expertise to every stage of our planning. Organising a wedding from overseas could have been stressful, but Nicholas made the entire journey seamless. He navigated every curveball with confidence and managed both sets of parents with grace, patience, and diplomacy. Most importantly, he turned my vision into reality. Every detail was exactly how I imagined it, and often even better. Our wedding day ran beautifully, and we were able to fully enjoy it thanks to him. Highly recommend him for any couple—local or abroad.

As parents of the bride, we faced the unique challenge of planning our daughter’s wedding in Malaysia while living in Sydney. Hiring Nicholas was, without question, one of the best decisions we made throughout the entire process. From our very first conversation, Nicholas impressed us with his warm, honest, and thoughtful approach. He listened closely and understood our vision—even when we weren’t entirely sure what that looked like ourselves. His creativity and exceptional organisational skills brought everything to life in ways we could never have imagined. Nicholas was with us every step of the way, managing timelines, coordinating vendors, and handling logistics with the utmost professionalism. On the wedding day, we didn’t have to worry about a single thing—everything was in Nicholas’s capable hands. He kept us informed, ensured everything ran smoothly, and truly allowed us to be present and enjoy the moment. What stood out most was how calm, reassuring, and solution-oriented Nicholas remained—even when unexpected challenges arose (as they inevitably do!). His flexibility, grace, and ever-present smile made all the difference, putting us completely at ease and a joy to work with him. Nicholas is also incredibly well-connected. He introduced us to talented and reliable vendors who matched our style and respected our budget. He’s the ideal combination of creative visionary, practical planner, and supportive friend. Even after the wedding was over, Nicholas continued to provide wonderful after-care service—helping us tie up loose ends, follow up with vendors, and ensured every detail was properly concluded. His unwavering dedication and care meant so much to us. If you're looking for someone who genuinely cares, listens intently, and delivers above and beyond expectations, we wholeheartedly recommend Nicholas Chong. Our daughter’s wedding was everything she dreamed of—and that’s thanks in large part to him. Nicholas, thank you for making the day so special, seamless, and truly magical. Mr. & Mrs. C.H.

We’re so glad we had Nicholas as our wedding planner! Thanks to him, everything went smoothly from start to finish. He’s incredibly organised, detailed, and truly experienced in what he does. My husband and I didn’t have to worry about a thing on our big day and so we could just relax and enjoy every moment. Leading up to the wedding, we did face a few unexpected hiccups like last-minute changes in guest numbers and some issues with the table arrangements from the venue side. But Nicholas handled everything calmly and professionally, always one step ahead with helpful suggestions and quick solutions. What really impressed us was how Nicholas genuinely cared about every little details. He was always responsive, supportive, and went above and beyond to make the whole planning journey stress-free and enjoyable. If you’re wondering whether hiring a wedding planner is necessary—our answer is 100% yes! And if you want someone reliable, calm, and passionate about what he does, we strongly recommend Nicholas. You’ll be in good hands and won’t regret it one bit!
