about me
Movies turned me into the ultimate romantic dreamer, leading me — an economics phd to quit academia and pursue my love for food, hospitality and events. Since then, I have made every kind of wedding magic happen from big Bollywood extravaganzas at venues like The Bowery Hotel and St Regis in Aspen, to more intimate celebrations at homes.
The economist in me makes me extremely meticulous and detail-oriented, with a razor focus on budgets and timelines, all geared towards creating an unforgettable day of celebration for you and your families on your wedding day — as befits a milestone when you’re gathering to celebrate your love and new beginnings.
Having spent over a decade and a half involved in the South Asian and multicultural weddings, I specialize in helping you blend those traditions with your very specific vision for the day. From horses to rickshaws to being a literal firestarter, I love it all :).
Your wedding day should be exactly the day of your dreams and I feel privileged to be the conjurer who helps bring it all to life.
You can also find me on Cheersy - sister site to the beloved Modern Rebel specializing in day-of-coordination services.
F.A.Q
-
Think of me as your behind-the-scenes best friend for the big day. I handle all the moving parts—managing the schedule, confirming vendor details, solving any last-minute hiccups, and making sure everything flows exactly how you imagined it. My job is to keep things stress-free for you, your partner, and your families, so you can focus on enjoying the moment instead of worrying about logistics.
-
Great question! A planner is usually with you from the start—helping you pick vendors, design your vibe, manage the budget, all of it. A coordinator comes in closer to the wedding (usually 45 days to 3 months out) to tie it all together. If you've already done most of the planning but want someone to take over the reins and run the show on the big day, that’s where I come in.
-
I offer month-of-coordination and partial planning. I offer flexible packages with an a la carte suite of services to tailor my services to your specific needs and vision.

The sooner the better! I typically book out several months (sometimes a year or more) in advance, especially for peak wedding season. If you're even thinking about hiring a coordinator, it's a good idea to reach out early so we can chat and lock in your date.
-
Yes, of course! I don't take on any weddings where I can't be there personally from start to finish.
-
Typically myself and one assistant. However, if there are a lot of moving parts or multiple venues involved, we can always add on additional assistants for a fee.
-
I am usually the first to arrive at whatever time the venue allows us to load-in. This is to ensure that all the vendors have access and whatever they need to get started. I am also usually the last to leave after ensuring that the venue is fully satisfied with the breakdown and that all items are returned to the right owners / locations. The day of coordination package includes unto 10 hours on site service with the option to add on additional hours or days a la carte.
-
We have a long kickoff call soon after we sign a contract where we go over everything that you have planned so far and share links to everything that will help me understand your vision for the big day. We also use this time to have me ask you a bunch of questions that help me start putting together a draft timeline and flow for the day. Following that, I usually recommend at least a biweekly call in the beginning if we are still 3 months or more out and then move to weekly once we get closer. I am also very responsive via text and email for any quick questions that might pop up between scheduled meetings.

Absolutely. As a coordinator specializing in South Asian weddings with multiple ceremonies, I am very used to handling multiple locations as are the people that assist me. This also means that my strength is managing timelines that involve more variables such as travel time and traffic and I thrive on these complexities.

I totally get how important it is to have someone you trust running the show. In the rare event that I’m seriously ill or something unexpected comes up (which has never happened, by the way!), I have a trusted backup coordinator who’s fully briefed on your wedding and ready to step in. They’ll have all your timelines, vendor info, and notes, so everything will still run exactly how we planned. Your day is too important for anything to fall through the cracks—I’ve got a Plan B, just in case.
-
Yes! I carry liability insurance, which many venues require. It's just another way I make sure you're covered and can relax knowing the big things are taken care of.
