Vanessa's Blissful Bride Package was 10/10

My partner and I had done most of the planning for our 2 day Indian/American wedding, but we wanted a coordinator to ensure that all the logistics went smoothly and allowed us to relax and enjoy the day. We found Vanessa, booked her Blissful Bride package, and the experience ended up being everything we wanted and more!

Vanessa took the time to really understand all the nuances of our fusion wedding. In the run up to the events, she was incredibly helpful at ironing out timelines, insurance, and other questions we hadn't even realized we needed to answer. When the wedding rolled around, we were able to completely empty our brains of the logistics and just enjoy the moment - Vanessa kept everything perfectly organized. She and her team were so incredibly kind and helpful on the day of. If our families needed anything, someone was there to help them with it. The whole team went above and beyond.

Vanessa was compassionate, calming, and incredibly efficient throughout. I really can't recommend her enough!

100% Amazing! Stress free!

I would recommend Katya and the Karma Goddess Team to anyone! I met the Karma Goddess team at a friend's out of state wedding and was so impressed by them that we hired them.

Katya was the best addition to our wedding. She helped guide us in decision making, how to help our vision come to life, and prevented us from being overwhelmed. Our wedding was out of state - but that was no challenge to Katya. She is detailed oriented and extremely organized. She handles communication through any platform.
I appreciated her most when she guided us through decision making calmly. She let's us think and talk it out, before providing input. She helped match our premium flower vision to be more budget friendly and guided us on what was worth spending extra cost on vs what would not be noticed by guests.
Most of all, our actual wedding day was stress free. Karma provides a timed schedule and layout - there were 0 surprises. She talked directly to vendors, while also confirming payments. As a couple with high stress jobs, this was an amazing benefit. I was able to enjoy being a bride and the 'getting ready' experience. She handled all vendors, family questions, venue items and helped move set up/teardown items. This allowed our family to also just be guests instead of helping do the set up or making sure vendors had arrived. This meant, we also had a much smoother schedule - the whole family was on time.

I would recommend Katya and Karma Goddess - 100%!

Vanessa & Katya- thank you both so much for all that you did, we mean it when we say it wouldn't have been so perfect if it weren't for both of you!

Amazing!!!

Vanessa and her team are amazing! They were so communicative and made sure everything was executed exactly how I envisioned on wedding day. They were very organized and helpful with their suggestions, they truly made the planning process so easy and seamless. Super attentive to detail which gave me the ability to not have to worry on wedding day that everything would turn out perfect. The wedding day team was also amazing, keeping the timeline on track and being with me every step of the day! I would choose them all over again if I could, highly recommend

Vanessa is the best!

Vanessa, Kat, and the rest of the Karma Goddess team were nothing short of amazing. They executed our 5 event wedding over 3 days across multiple locations seamlessly. Vanessa was a true partner throughout the wedding planning process and was incredibly patient, attentive and kind throughout (even indulging in my last minute reception design change!). Vanessa's knowledge and connections in South Florida were truly an asset throughout the planning process. I'd recommend Vanessa to anyone planning a wedding and will definitely miss our weekly planning sessions.

A wonderful experience that allowed us to enjoy the moment!

Working with Vanessa and her team was one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding. Although we purchased the day of planning package, the to-do list, checklist, and list of recommended vendors she provided us with were a god send and helped us get everything sorted for our big day. Whenever we had questions or needed advice, Vanessa was easy to reach and ready to help. They were even able to provide support for printing needs we had not fully anticipated. The meeting we had before the wedding with Vanessa and Katya allowed us to run through the final details and really feel prepared. Their service the day of the wedding was wonderful. I can get overwhelmed and stressed about making sure all the details of a big event are in place, but Vanessa and Katya made sure everything ran smoothly and I was able to relax and be in the moment. Our wedding was on the smaller side so I was tempted to try to handle everything myself, but there is so much that goes into making a wedding happen that, in retrospect, I’m so grateful we had the support. If you’re contemplating working with Vanessa and her team, I highly recommend that you do!

Out of town wedding

Vanessa and her team were critical for helping to plan my out of town wedding! Her expertise and experience in the field helped immensely with the vendor selection process. All of the recommendations were top-tier and professional. The Karma Goddess team assisted in communicating amongst all of the vendors leading up to the big day as well, which allowed me peace of mind as everything fell into place. I couldn't have asked for a better wedding planning experience!

Incredible!

Absolutely amazing! They were an absolute dream to work with. From our initial consultation to the final send-off at our reception, they were organized, attentive to detail, and always available to answer any questions we had.

They understood our vision perfectly and brought it to life even better than we could have imagined. They handled all the vendor communication, kept us on track with our budget, and made sure everything ran smoothly on the big day.

We were able to relax and enjoy every moment of our wedding because we knew they had everything under control. We are so grateful for their expertise and highly recommend them to any couple looking for a stress-free and unforgettable wedding experience.

The best decision we made in wedding planning was choosing to work with Karma Goddess

For context, my husband and I were living in New York and in the middle of a move/starting new jobs in medicine while planning a destination wedding in Miami. He is Indian and my family is South American. Vanessa & her right hand, Katya, gave us the cultural fusion wedding of our dreams.

Choosing Karma Goddess as our planning team was by far our best decision in wedding planning. I'd say the #1 reason would be how Vanessa & Katya were able to read our personalities and really cater their guidance to how my husband and I best made decisions. A close second reason would be how available/flexible Vanessa was for the entire 1.5 years we worked with her. Vanessa held many evening and weekend meetings and never made us feel rushed. We often thought back to the many planners we interviewed who said they would have a set number of meetings with us and that blew our minds. We probably talked to Vanessa almost every day via phone or text in the weeks leading up to our wedding. As far as connections, they found us discounts or affordable recommendations in Miami that easily made working with them worthwhile.

Being in medicine, neither of us had a clue about design or event planning. Vanessa organized everything while still letting us make all the decisions. She found a way to present just enough variety of options without overwhelming us. By the end of our time together, she was already predicting what we would pick with complete accuracy :) They are extremely passionate about what they do, and genuinely enjoy problem solving and getting creative.

We only had to visit Miami twice (a plus for us as we were swamped with our new jobs) but they would have welcomed us as many times as we wanted. We had the best time venue touring and food tasting with Vanessa and Katya. We hung out with them extra because we genuinely enjoyed spending time with them.

The wedding days (this was a 3 day Indian fusion wedding) would not have gone as smoothly without them. When we ran into issues with the hotel, Vanessa and her team quickly solved them with a phone call. We later found out she also put out fires that we didn't even notice at the time. We get so many compliments on the design, food, and organization of our wedding and give Vanessa and her team all of the credit. We were in total awe when we saw how our reception space turned out in person.

I would strongly recommend Karma Goddess without any hesitation to any of my closest friends or family planning a wedding. You will remember this day for the rest of your lives, and having a team who is as invested and passionate about making your big day a success is more than worth it.
