“Seema made and saved our wedding many times over. We were initially intrigued by her economist background, but won over totally by her offering to handle communication with and incessant questions from our families. She never let on that this was frustrating or even irritating, though we can only imagine it was both.
Each time we spoke with her, we were immediately put at ease. We dealt with several venues that were difficult to work with, and through each hurdle Seema calmly navigated us into a place of certainty that she would take care of it.
On the Tuesday before our wedding, our caterers abruptly canceled. Seema let us know this information while also sharing she had multiple backup plans underway. She managed this so seamlessly we never once stopped to be anxious about it—in fact, we barely thought about it at all until showing up to our wedding to find that indeed there was catering present.
Our venue was a natural wine bar, not accustomed to having weddings, and certainly not set up for it. There was not enough room for a traditional seated ceremony or an aisle. We went in with the understanding that this would feel like a DIY wedding, and to let go of any expectations of it looking a certain way. We hardly discussed decor or ceremony flow, relying instead on the bar's aesthetic. And yet, when we made our entrance, we were greeted by friends and families neatly arranged along the sides of the space with a clear aisle for us to walk through. How she managed to tetris the space so effectively we'll never know.
We are two controlling, hyper-opinionated, exacting eldest daughters, and we felt completely at peace letting Seema take the reins on many aspects of our wedding. We shared our vision with her and were confident she would execute it. While we won't miss wedding planning, we already feel nostalgic of the times we got to spend with Seema.”
