Fair warning - this may be very long, but we just have so many wonderful things to share about our experience working with Sumeta!


HOW WE CONNECTED:
We found Sumeta online while just browsing for full service wedding planners in the Southeast region. We reached out to her via her website and heard back very quickly! We were able to set up a consultation call to essentially go over what we are looking for and ensure we could be the right fit for each other. From the first call, Sumeta was so kind and sincere! It was clear she absolutely loves what she does and genuinely wants to celebrate your love and marriage. She was very inquisitive - she, of course, asked the basic questions about our wedding events and what services we were looking for - but she was the only planner who asked us some unexpected out-of-the-box questions, like what does celebrating love look like to us, what kind of experience did we want to have, what kind of experience did we want our guests to have, and how we want to tell/share our love story through our wedding. It wasn't just all business - she was genuinely most interested in us as a couple. We really appreciated her questions and just had a really good gut feeling upon ending our call. All I can say is always trust your instinct. We are so glad we did because this was the beginning of the best decision we made! After reviewing the different packages she offers, we decided to book Sumeta as our wedding planner for her full service package! 


PLANNING PHASE:
We started on a completely blank page -  we had no idea where we wanted it or which vendors we wanted to book, so we wanted to go the full service package route as we trusted that Sumeta would have the best contacts and be able to get us the best deals throughout the process. What we really appreciated the most during this phase was that we didn't just jump right into vendors and venue. Sumeta has a process. She wanted us to "dream" and really think about what was important to us. It was really fun to challenge ourselves to use our imagination and try to put into words what we visioned. She really wanted to understand where our hearts were before showing us any venues or introducing us to other vendors. 
She really did it all for us - venue, catering, photography, videography, decor, entertainment, photobooth, singer, etc - every single vendor we worked with we found through Sumeta. She would lead all calls and meetings, review contracts, and negotiate. We would simply explain what we were looking for and trusted her to bring us the best of the best, and she delivered with every single person we worked with. 


WEDDING WEEK:
Sumeta created the entire timeline for our wedding week. She worked with all of our vendors to share timings and ensure they knew where to be each day. She even met with all of our immediate family members to bring everyone on the same page of what to expect as well as share our expectations of them regarding any responsibilities and timeliness. Side note - she is awesome with family members and they all loved and respected her! During the wedding week, she is mainly behind the scenes ensuring everything is running smoothly. It's crazy how many hats she wears, but she wears them well! Despite everything that is going on, she would always make time to come see me during hair and makeup, she would always make sure to greet us before any of our entrances, she would check in with us throughout the event to make sure we were eating or that we always had a cocktail in hand, and she would even be there at the end of every event to make sure we were happy with everything. She even came to join us on the dance floor a few times, and it was soo special to us! I really don't know how she always found the time and energy to do all of it - seriously, she's superhuman. We always felt cared for! She also brought two additional assistants with her for the weekend, Alyssa and Sydney, and they were a true reflection of her! She really only works with the best people, and we always felt like we could just trust her entire team and enjoy our wedding weekend, as it always should be for every couple out there!


POST WEDDING:
Sumeta continued to work with us after the wedding to ensure all of our contracts and payments were closed out. She even continued to support us months later with photography and videography deliverables. She had always said that her role continues even after the wedding weekend. She believes in supporting her couples until they truly have closed out everything and have received all their deliverables. 


Sumeta is simply the best! The work that she does is truly her calling. She genuinely believes in celebrating love and she will make the planning process actually fun. So many couples talk about how they hated the planning process, but we simply cannot relate - we loved planning with Sumeta and would recommend her every single time!

Sumeta was phenomenal to work with. I consider myself to be very organized and operationally oriented, but Sumeta constantly brought up items we had not considered in our planning stage. She took the time to understand what type of wedding and event we were looking for and made sure to ask the right questions to get us there. We had a very short timeline in our planning and Sumeta met us at every milestone to make sure we were on track for our special occasion. Her detailed mind and fantastic team executed every request and suggested adjustments to meet our overall planning goals for a celebration to remember. From Vendor communications to music testing, she was with us through the process as a partner. My only regret is we did not initiate her, and her team’s help earlier in the planning process. You won’t be disappointed with this team!

I have collaborated with One H'art Events- Sumeta and her Team on various special occasions /events as DJ, especially cross cultural Weddings in the past few years. She is an amazing and a wonderful planner to work with you and your family and I would definitely say Sumeta is one of the Best planners I've ever worked with. Sumeta and her Team specializes in using their creativity, organizational skills and knowledge of the industry to curate an unforgettable & memorable experience. Very professional & operates with grace under pressure. Way to go Sumeta!
