Here comes the rain, let’s get married!

My daughter’s wedding was during a 2 day thunderstorm. Not even ankle deep water could stop Sepali and her team from making the wedding day perfect! She really takes the stress away from so all you do is enjoy the day.
With the weather changing to a massive thunderstorm, a venue manager that would not make it easy for her, to a broken tent, she always had a smile and a “we got it” attitude. A 4 days celebration that really could not have come together if it was not for Sepali and her team. If you really want a perfect wedding, hire her!

Amazing service

I worked with Sepali for day of coordination services but got more than day of services. She is simply wonderful to work with and very organized. I appreciated the time she took to help me find vendors, organize timelines and contracts, and answered questions I had months before the wedding. One the actual wedding day, she and her team were awesome, professional, and very nice. As far as I can tell, things ran on time, in fact we finished earlier than the projected time. I highly recommend Events by Sep!

Okay, How do i begin? Sepali Vakil and her team (Jamie and Chloe) are by far the best coordinators that we could have ever asked for. The word coordinator is too low a title for the amount of quality work they offered to the paramount success of our wedding. They should wedding Directors, because they accomplished our vision to the nth degree with great satisfaction for our 2-day wedding. With the finesse of someone who's done it a thousand times. Most surprising for us was that she ensured our family members who are notoriously two hours late to everything actually be on-time; It is a magnum opus in and of itself. She met with us multiple times and stayed in good communication with all of the wedding party and vendors so no-one had to come to the bride or groom (us) with any questions. She even helped us with nuanced details like designing the cake table and coordinating with Portos (the cake vendor) when they had us make a last-minute change. Do yourself a favor and book her.

My husband is of Indian decent and I am Persian so naturally, we had a multi-event wedding. We had a two year engagement, and I thought, pshhhhh I got this. Well it's 7 months before the wedding and I am stressing and I am stressing hard. Then we hire Sepali and all our worries were went away. She was the mastermind behind our 3 day wedding and made all my visions come to life. Sepali did everything from negotiating with other vendors, giving me creative ideas for the different aspects of the wedding, venue shopping, design/styling and day of coordination. She was so patient with Harp and I and she always went out of her way to meet us when it was most convenient for our schedule. She was always early to make sure everything was set up correctly and hired the best assistants to have all aspects of the events covered. She was my right hand woman the whole time and I couldn't have gotten through each event without her.I love how organized she was with everything and literally didn’t forget about anything we talked about. We are so so happy with the way everything turned out! She also planned my bridal shower and just went above and beyond. You don’t have to plan your wedding alone! Sepali will take all your stress away so you can enjoy the planning process and have no doubt that your big day (or days in my case) go perfectly! Thank you Sepali for everything! Can’t wait for you to plan my baby shower.

Sepali and her team helped me plan, organize, decorate and coordinate my recent baby shower. I live in a different city from where the baby shower was going to be held, and it was great to have someone local to help with planning, especially as she had done events at the location before. She was very thorough from the beginning and asked for my ideas and turned them into a reality. She got me in touch with a local decorator (Araceli from Royal Ball Designs) for the bigger decorations however she took care of all the smaller décor on the tables (entrance table, cake table, etc). She even came to my house the night before to pick up the décor and games that I had made prior so that everything was set up on the morning of. I was able to come to our party stress free - and everything was exactly as I had imagined! We only had the restaurant for a few hours and we had a lot to accomplish during that time (religious ceremony, games, lunch) and Sepali and her team made sure everything went on time and coordinated with the restaurant to make sure food and drinks were replenished for all the guests. Everyone commented on how smoothly the event ran - this is definitely not the norm in an Indian party as they always tend to run late! Overall, I highly recommend hiring Sepali and her team for your next event!

Sep coordinated a perfect ceremony and reception for us. Her genius and work ethic is unparalleled. She wore all these hats and did it with absolute ease. I never saw her stressed and always saw a smile. It made me feel content to see her work with such ease. I enjoyed my wedding day even more because I knew she had my back. She worked tirelessly until the last moment at 12:30am. She was the last person, my new wife and I sat with at the end of the evening. Making sure we were all good. Thank you Sep for making our dreams come true.

I highly recommend this intelligent, sweet, hard working woman for ANY event.

Sepali planned my bridal shower. Shower started at 2pm but she got to the location at 9am just to make sure everything goes according to the plans. Sepali will help you create your vision come to life and she delivers more than what you ever expected. She will pay attention to every single details that you never thought of. She is the best event coordinator i haver worked with so far.

I was 8 months pregnant and going through a very difficult pregnancy when we had our baby shower in January 2018. Despite the intense lower back pain and nausea, my husband and I had the most fun (according to our guests), polished, well coordinated shower- and it’s all because of Sepali and her assistant Chloe! Without them, I probably would have been very stressed and had gone into labor! But seeing how Sepali was on top of everything allowed me to actually enjoy my baby shower! She kept us on timeline, decorated our house beautifully, she made sure we were happy and the guests are taken cared of, she made all 9 of our games/activities happen while making sure the guests are having fun and the event didn’t drag. She was flexible with us too, and made sure the event was going how WE wanted it to be. At the very end, she even sent us with professional-grade photographs of the event. We really couldn’t have asked for a better event coordinator! She was an ALL STAR! Sepali was dedicated and made our happiness her priority! Definitely recommend her to all of our friends and family! Thank you so much Sepali!
