Miraculous!
My husband and I, (fiance then) decided to have a destination wedding. Our dream is a beach wedding and our first choice was the Boracay Islands in the Philippines, but due to the pandemic and lockdowns, this was out of the equation. Back to the drawing board and square one, again. After many sleepless nights and planning, we chose San Diego after a mini trip back in 2020. It was just a perfect location and weather just as I envisioned the dream wedding would be. One of the biggest challenges we faced is that we don't know anyone in San Diego. I did a lot of research looking for a month of coordinator, and I came across Iman's profile on The Knot. After a "few" email exchanges and phone calls, we agreed to terms and signed the contract. Let's just say that we, the soon-to-be-married couple, won the lottery with Iman's service for a much affordable rate at the time. It could be because I volunteerly agreed to do all the initial planning, research, and communication with all the vendors. I'm a hands-on bride, I planned every aspect of the wedding. The wedding is also super small (30 guests) consists mainly of close family and friends. But since it is a destination wedding, Iman is doing a lot of work in terms of receiving packages, sorting through them, and organizing them for the day of.
As we approached the day of our wedding, that's when Iman's knowledge and magic truly manifested. Iman took over all the communications and consolidated all the details. Without missing a beat, she read through every email exchanged I had with her and other vendors. She remembered everything and I mean everything down to the smallest details. We had a couple of hiccups, as some of our vendors, unfortunately, weren't able to proceed due to covid exposure. Once again, Iman to the rescue and reassured us that everything is going to be fine. A little reassurement goes a long way. On the day of the event, we felt a tremendous amount of gratitude towards Iman, she executed and arranged (ran the entire event) without issues. I am one over-worrying bride and this is an understatement, and I can get super particular, but Iman's work is so miraculous that for a moment during my reception, I sat and wondered how could she have possibly managed all of this?! Iman's top-notch above and beyond service, she packed our picture frames and other wedding decorations and props back to their original boxes. I thought they would be placed in one giant box, and we would spend the day after for wrapping and packing. But thanks to Iman, all items are in great shape, and we only spent a couple hrs to pack them before our fight back home.
Iman, we wanted you to know we are grateful to have done the business with you. This was a chaotic project that you handled perfectly, maintained a high-quality service without compromises. It was one of our most important day and it wouldn't have been possible without your help! We hope to see you next time we are in San Diego. Maybe for another round of drinks or two or three. We kind of lost count after the first, but who's counting right? Until then, pleasure doing business with you. Keep doing what you're doing! Iman is a professional and has great knowledge of her craft. Great service and dependability without compromises. We highly recommend Iman if you want your special day/night extra special.
