Outstanding

I cannot express how thankful I am for the extraordinary effort Vanessa put into making my dream fairytale wedding a reality. Her unwavering commitment and meticulous attention to detail did not go unnoticed, and I am genuinely appreciative of the magic she brought to every aspect of the event(s). She showcased not only unparalleled dedication but also an infectious, joyful, and energetic personality that made the entire planning process a delightful experience.

From our initial consultation to the final moments of the celebration, her expertise and professionalism shone through. She took the time to understand my vision, and her ability to translate that vision into a beautifully executed reality exceeded my expectations. Every detail, from the floral arrangements, mandap, seating and last minute add ons/changes were flawlessly executed to bring my vision(s) to life.

What truly stood out was her patience and understanding throughout the planning process. Her calm demeanor and reassuring presence helped alleviate any stress, turning what could have been a daunting experience into a joyous journey. Vanessa is a pleasure to work with an even better listener. She will listen to you and help come up with solutions to any problems that may arise, as well, even if it isn't related to the wedding itself. Her ability to navigate unforeseen challenges with grace and poise further highlights her expertise in the field.

Thank you, Vanessa, for your tireless efforts, creativity, and the passion you brought to this special day. It was an absolute pleasure working with you, and I will forever cherish the memories of my dream wedding that you made possible. I could not have my dream wedding if it weren't for you and the wonderful vendors we worked with. Everything turned out beautiful, all thanks to you.

Great Knowledge of Indian Weddings!

Vanessa worked with us (partial planning) on our wedding (Jan 2024). The wedding was a hybrid Peruvian-Indian wedding with elements (and a lot of family) from both cultures.
TLDR: Vanessa is a star. We recommend 100%. Don't overthink it. Just book her.

Great Cultural Competency
Vanessa has a ton of expertise with South-Asian weddings. I don't say this lightly; we spoke to several wedding planners who claimed to have "experience" with indian weddings. Most had barely read a wikipedia page or watched a youtube video and didn't know the elements of the wedding, the names for things, etc.

Vanessa on the other hand knew the appropriate Hindi terms, the differences in weddings from different parts of india, and had enough cultural context to know how to (politely and respectfully) interact with older, traditional family members and make everyone feel welcome. This was a huge deal to me (personally).

At the same, she is from Spain, and hence speaks Spanish fluently. She was able to joke, laugh and talk to all of my wife's Peruvian family.

Vendor Sourcing/Management
This is another area where Vanessa shined. Vanessa helped us source a ton of vendors. She was on ALL calls with vendors and knew which questions to ask and what details to confirm. And she insisted on personally reviewing every contract from a vendor before we signed to make sure there were no fine-print "gotchyas" to worry about.

She also was in constant contact with the vendors leading up to the event giving htem a detailed, color-coded binder with a (15 minute increment) scheduel fo the day for when vendors arrived, when they needed to complete set up, how breakdown worked, complete with photos of the venue she took with her phone, measurements, and other small details. (Honestly, this thing is impressive to review.)

Responsiveness -- Vanessa is always on the ball. Ask her a question? She'll text you back an answer in five minutes. She's also flexible to use lots of modes of commujnication -- texts, phone calls, but also sharing google docs to jointly edit, sharing google presentations or Instagram posts to brainstorm ideas.

Finally, I just want to say Vanessa is great with the little things. Wedding planning is stressful. Vanessa is warm and comforting. She checked in with our emotional state regularly, and even sent us a cute little "time to relax" gift after our wedding.


If you're considering Vanessa and still unsure, I suggest reaching out to her and asking her to connect you with me. I'm happy to chat with you about our experience and how professional and lovely she is.

wonderful!

Vanessa and her team were fantastic! Anyone who has been to an Indian wedding knows how involved and chaotic they can be, so I was looking for someone who had experience with Indian weddings. Vanessa ensured that everything ran on time the day of my wedding, and she and her assistants were a support system to me and my family. Vanessa was also very responsive in the months leading up to my wedding. We had only hired her for day of coordination but she was kind enough to recommend vendors (who turned out to be fantastic), read any vendor contracts before we signed, and provide input on other important wedding planning aspects. There were several instances where her experience saved us quite a bit of money, for which we are grateful. Overall, I would highly recommend Vanessa for all your wedding planning/coordinating needs!
