Founded by owner & CEO, Abha Desai, in November of 2019, A Connection was established with the hopes of forging connections with and between clients, vendors and colleagues in the industry as well as members of her community. For years, Abha dreamt of sharing her creative approach to event design with the world and after finding success in the entreprenurial world, she decided to take the leap and start the business. She believes that making connections is one of the most important parts of her role as a wedding planner. From connecting couples with like-minded vendors to curating experiences that bring people together, connection is a constant in everything she does. Her business name, A Connection, celebrates this belief, as she is one individual responsible for helping so many people connect and collaborate!

Running the business alongside Abha is her partner, Rohini Brahmbhatt, who joined the industry officially in early 2024 after earning experience in event management and planning for over 10 years. Raised with the motto "In the Joy of Others Lies Our Own," Rohini enjoys exemplifying acts of service through wedding planning, which she believes helps to forge real connections with couples, their families & friends. What started off as an application of her talent for a side hustle has very quickly turned into a life-changing opportunity and passion!

Combining Abha's vendor connections, industy experience and networking capability with Rohini's organization, social management skills and marketing capability, these 2 ladies make an unparalleled wedding planning duo!

Best Wedding Planners you will ever find!

Working with A Connection was an amazing experience. Abha and Rohini were always available to take our calls and guide us through the entire process. Even when things felt overwhelming, their calm and organized approach made everything so much easier for us. Their strong vendor relationships meant we never had to search extensively for services, and we secured great deals thanks to their connections with the A Connection team.

Like any planning process, there were a few hiccups, but the way their team handled each situation with professionalism and grace made the entire journey worthwhile. We wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for dedicated, reliable planners. Rohini and Abha are not just our wedding planners—they’ve become great friends and our go-to team for all future events!!!

Highly highly recommend!

A Connection did an AMAZING job stepping in for us when one of our original planners from a different planning company had to swap out very close to our wedding date. Rohini was friendly, approachable, and really made us feel at ease. She jumped in seamlessly for day-of coordination at all of our wedding events, clearly having done her research well ahead of time. We can't emphasize enough how smooth the whole process was thanks to Rohini's help. She really took "go above and beyond" to heart and knew all the right questions to ask, which vendors to reach out to, what rituals to be aware of, who from our families and friends to check in with - it felt like she'd been part of the planning process the entire time! When I got nauseous from heat right before haldi, she was at my room door in less than 2 minutes with electrolytes and cold water (which helped instantly!). When I needed a quick touch-up before my bridal entry, she was there with the perfect lipstick shade. When it rained on our wedding day, she was up at the mandap along with other family and friends holding towels over us. When our microphones and speakers went out because of the rain, she was on stage with our photo list calling groups up before guests started leaving. From small things to big things, our wedding would not have been the same without Rohini and we're so lucky to have had her there! Thanks A Connection!

A Connection is the best Connection

Second best desicion I ever made, marrying my wife was the first. From day one, Rohini and her team were on top of every detail: organized, calm, and always one step ahead. Even when a few unexpected hiccups popped up on the wedding day, they handled everything so smoothly that we barely felt the stress. Even through out the day they made sure we ate and always got us our Diet coke on time.

If you want to actually enjoy your wedding day and see it come together exactly the way you pictured it, these are your people. This isn’t “A Connection”… it’s an A+ Connection.

Best Decision Ever

A Connection was one hands-down one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding! From our very first call with Rohini, we instantly felt at ease and dare I say — a connection. Her energy, professionalism, and attention to detail were unmatched. She asked thoughtful questions we hadn’t even considered, created a super organized and detailed itinerary, and made sure every single vendor was perfectly in sync.
When unexpected challenges popped up on both days, Rohini and her team handled everything flawlessly, all with calmness, efficiency, and the warmest smiles. Our families and guests kept asking who our amazing coordinators were and how we found them!
A Connection executed our vision perfectly and made our entire wedding weekend feel effortless. If you’re looking for wedding coordinators who are organized, kind, and genuinely invested in making your day perfect, look no further. Truly one of the best decisions we made! 💛✨

The best wedding coordinators

Rohini and Abha are amazing!!!! They are so proactive, thoughtful, timely, highly professional, and well-organized. They organized every detail of my friend's wedding perfectly, and helped coordinate all tasks with the bridal party, parents, vendors, and more. They each have some 10+ years of experience organizing major events, and it clearly shows in their time management and professionalism. They really went above and beyond, being consistent and reliable in their work and even helping to troubleshoot issues with other vendors. 5 stars, I highly recommend them!

We recently had the absolute pleasure of working with A Connection, and they surpassed our expectations in every conceivable way. From our initial consultation, it was clear we were in exceptionally capable hands. Their professionalism, creativity, and meticulous attention to detail were apparent throughout the entire planning process. The team truly brought our vision to life. Their organizational skills are unparalleled, managing all logistics seamlessly, coordinating with our vendors, and handling last-minute changes with remarkable grace. On the day of our wedding, everything ran like clockwork, allowing us to immerse ourselves in the celebration without a hint of stress or worry. Each detail, from the stunning floral arrangements to the exquisite lighting and table settings, was executed to perfection, creating the romantic I ambiance we had envisioned. Their customer service is exceptional; they were consistently available to answer our questions, provide updates, and offer unwavering support, making the entire planning experience less of a challenge. I would highly recommend this service to anyone!
