Creating Innovative & Authentic Celebrations
“Aysha was the first wedding planner we actually talked to in person and we felt an instant connection with her- that she understood our vision, our budget and had our best interest. She was looking into expanding into a more full wedding planner space and we were willing to take the chance for our multi-day wedding. From the beginning of vendor searches, she was realistic with us, never pushy towards the vendors she preferred and gave us the information and space to make our own decisions which we deeply appreciated. She was always communicative, available and knew how to calm me down when I got overwhelmed. She was doing all the things I had hoped a planner would help with and it was great. Then the pandemic hit and it was such a stressful uncertain time for countless reasons- this is where she showed up and where she went up and beyond for us- she handled the entire rescheduling while we sat at home and mourned the postponement of our wedding just a month prior to the actual event. She then helped us plan our Zoom DJ reception with DJ USA, made a beautiful slideshow, delivered a cake and let us enjoy the night we were supposed to get married. Our family and friends are still talking about the zoom reception as a highlight to that quarantine period of their lives. We ended that time period on a high note and put the wedding on pause while she worked for our event in the background. Once restarting the wedding planning we got hit with multiple obstacles ie our Friday venue cancelling on us! Friday was supposed to be the easier wedding day to plan, and suddenly became really difficult but she worked us to basically plan an entire wedding in the 6 weeks we had. We know our wedding was not easy to plan-we had so many customized components and moving parts (handmade specialty cocktails, cheese steaks from philly, multiple entrances, multiple surprise performances to name a couple). We can't even begin to imagine the level of coordination needed with all of our vendors for the Bordone. We know she worked tirelessly on our wedding to put everything together. On the actual wedding days- things went more amazingly than we could ever imagine for it. We had a couple of hiccups but you problem solved them and our guests had no clue. Every single person commented on how well run and smooth the events were. Your team was so great to work with and were so helpful. We've said it before and we truly mean it- we made a lot of great investments to the wedding, many of them to Aysha's credit, but she is the glue and the very best investment we made for our wedding. My parents who yelled at me for getting a planner and freaked out at the price, now say that they don't want to do an event without her and her team. We've had family friends tell us- wow so this is how a wedding is done properly, we've never experienced such a smooth well executed wedding. Most importantly, we had SO much fun at our wedding and we owe all of that Yesmin events. Thank you for taking care of us for 2+ years!”
“I discovered Yesmin events through social media, which is actually how I happened upon many of the different vendors I selected for my August 2017 wedding. Realizing the company was relatively new, my expectations from Yesmin events was simple, an expected level of organization for meetings with vendors, vendor selection and day of coordination. I will say right now that I was blown away by the level of service and dedication that I received. I selected Yesmin events after my first meeting with Aysha, my planner. She is incredibly easy to talk to, professional, kind, and most importantly she instilled confidence in me that she could deliver on the vision I had for my wedding. And she did that and more, and it couldn’t have been easy for her. My wedding which included 2 events was planned in less than 6 months, and all went without a hitch all thanks to her. By working with her she introduced me to vendors I would have otherwise missed, especially with South Indian wedding vendors who can be hard to find and even harder to trust. She helped organize my meetings and prioritized my budget. But the greatest joy I’ve found from working with Yesmin events has without a doubt been how attentive they were to me, my husband, and all our family and closest friends the day of each of our events. They made sure communication with everyone was open, made sure we had eaten, personally hand delivered all the food we had missed to our wedding suite, made sure our families were comfortable, handled all vendor issues seamlessly, took care of all last minute issues to the point where I can honestly say I was able to completely enjoy every minute of my wedding. I was able to step back and relax. I loved it! My advice to anyone thinking about a wedding planner is one, to definitely get one! Aysha was the only reason why I could breathe and not worry about a thing and enjoy my wedding, and 2 I would highly recommend Yesmin events because they will go out of their way to make sure your wedding is everything YOU want it to be. At one point during the wedding all our guests bombarded us to take pictures. One quick word with Yesmin events that we wanted to be dancing instead and we were on the dance floor in seconds, our guests being tended to by them. I couldn’t be happier with how my wedding turned out, and it was hugely due to the work of Yesmin events 🙂
“My husband and I definitely were looking for someone who could plan, and coordinates an event and goes above and beyond as we would for any friend or family. We were looking for a happy heart, a guide, and most of all, a partner that understood our vision and priorities. We love supporting small businesses and when we heard about Yesmin Events and met with Aysha, we just knew she was the right fit for us. She understood the different layers of planning a desi wedding and always kept a positive attitude about it all. Our initial meeting with Aysha felt like we were old friends reconnecting over tea and laughing away at things only we would understand. That is when we knew and believed that Yesmin Events would be the best for us. Aysha referred us to vendors who we thought would be way out of our budget but ended up working out for us. She helped us build our vendor list so efficiently. One thing I continue to share with friends, which seems simple to say but it holds so much weight in wedding planning, is to make a list of what are top priorities to us and that's where the bulk of our budget should go. Aysha taught us that and it made a world of a difference when we were procuring vendors and building our budget. Aysha offered and gave help even when didn't think to ask. She is so dedicated to making plans run so smoothly, that she takes on the little inconveniences of it all. We were completely stress-free on the days Aysha and her team were coordinating. We knew that she had everything handled and she was the first line of defense, shielding us from things we wouldn't want to worry ourselves with. My husband and I were so grateful to have her on our side during the wedding. Yesmin Events is professionalism mixed with above and beyond friendliness, provided us with a vendor list and budget management, and had check-in dates! Those were always special and I miss them! Aysha and her team's dedication to making sure all operations run smoothly and also the video montages!!!! The video montages are my favorite and the fact that you get to see a small reel of all the special moments before your video/photo peeps share anything is the most heartwarming ever. Yesmin Events is that Instagram hubby/friend who is catching the most beautiful candids ever. I've been recommending Yesmin Events to all my couple of friends who are hoping to marry soon!!! What I share with them is what was important to me and that is: outsourcing planning and coordinating is such a relief to the couple and family members during events. Instead of assigning those coordinations to family members, hire Yesmin Events and have them arrange it all professionally. The end goal is to enjoy the wedding yourself and have your close ones enjoy it with you and for that having a planner like Yesmin Events is essential!”
“When my Husband & I started planning our wedding, we knew for sure that we wanted to invest in having a planner to coordinate our events. I had consultations with many planners but the first time I spoke to Aysha, I felt so confident about what she can deliver! Our biggest concern in hiring a planner was because we know how hectic weddings get ( when you have 300+ guests) we needed someone who can help us make sure we don't get caught up with the craziness so that we can still enjoy our wedding day. After working with Aysha at Yesmin Events, we made a friend for a lifetime. Every time we spoke, she made us feel so comfortable & excited about our wedding. Out of all our vendors, we feel that this was our best investment because our wedding events went so smoothly, we truly had the best days ever! We're so grateful for everything & will recommend Yesmin Events to all our friends & Family!”
“Without Yesmin Events, our wedding wouldn't have been as magical as it was. We wanted a planner who would understand the intricacies of Bengali and Pakistani traditions and Aysha was able to add insight and suggestions. Aysha was able to understand our vision and suggest designs and decor ideas she knew we would love. She listened and made us feel taken care of. The one thing I wanted was to have fun at my own wedding and because of Yesmin Events I was truly able to. On the days of, Aysha and her team kept us cool, calm, stress-free and full of laughter. I absolutely recommend Yesmin Events! I am so grateful to Aysha and her team for being part of our wedding weekend!”
“We were planning a 500 person, multi-day Indian wedding so we needed a team that would make sure we were able to fully enjoy the events without the stress of worrying about all the details. From the moment we met Aysha she felt like an old friend. She was very accommodating and had experience in large scale Indian weddings which made us feel comfortable. Prior to our wedding day, Aysha joined our site visits and other key meetings. She really made herself available and made sure everyone was informed. The night before the wedding Aysha even came to our welcome dinners to meet all the key family members she would be interacting with the next day which shows her commitment to go above and beyond what she had to do. Aysha and her team made sure our day went well and everyone raved about how smooth the flow of the day was afterwards. We were never rushing around and my family and were able to actually mingle with our guests. The team also worked seamlessly with the venue staff and all the other vendors. Even when there were minor hiccups during the day the team swung into action and made sure it was addressed immediately. We highly recommend Aysha and her team!
