Khanh P. Duong
THE WEDDING PLANNER
Behind every extraordinary celebration is a force who refuses to settle for anything less than exceptional.
Khanh P. Duong approaches wedding planning as both an art and a discipline, and she is unapologetically meticulous about both. With over a decade as a Senior Project Manager in the pharmaceutical industry, she has led some of the most complex, high-stakes programs with precision, foresight, and composure. Her background has shaped her into a planner who operates at the intersection of strategy and soul, balancing creativity with an unwavering commitment to excellence.
Insanely detail oriented and a natural problem solver, Khanh is the definition of intentional. Every element of her work is carefully curated, never templated, and always rooted in meaning. She takes on a limited number of weddings each year, allowing her to pour her full attention, artistry, and focus into every event. Her clients come to her because she is discerning, because she treats each wedding as if it were her own.
As a bilingual planner fluent in English and Vietnamese, she is deeply trusted by families. Parents love her ability to bridge cultures with ease, communicate with respect, and create an experience that feels both modern and meaningful. Her approach honors tradition while embracing the beauty of new beginnings, ensuring every generation feels seen and celebrated.
Motherhood has only made her sharper. It has refined her instincts, deepened her empathy, and strengthened her ability to anticipate every need before it arises. Her perfectionism is not about control; it is about care, a reflection of her belief that every couple deserves nothing short of her very best.
Based in Orange County, Khanh curates a select number of extraordinary multicultural and destination weddings each year, crafting celebrations that are as effortless as they are unforgettable. Her work has taken her from the coastlines of Hawaii to the streets of Paris to the emerald waters of Ha Long Bay, designing experiences that are deeply personal, artfully executed, and truly one of a kind.
Whether it is an intimate ceremony or a multi-day destination weekend, she ensures that every detail feels intentional, every transition flows seamlessly, and every moment leaves a lasting impression.
