Melina has been helpful and diligent amidst our very unique taste. She walked us through the process in an arena we had no real clue about. She is a fun, bubbly, and absolutely positive person to be around and I would recommend her over anyone out there! Thank you so much for making our dream wedding come true!

Melina was so incredible to work with. She took care of things in a timely manner and made our wedding planning process so warm and memorable. Melina showed true grace and kindness even through she was hit with curveballs right before the wedding day. I never felt judged and always knew that she has the best interest of any couple she works with. Now that the wedding is over. I miss our coffee dates and all the planning. It came and went way too fast. I’m so grateful that we came upon Starry Eyes Events!

Melina was a very helpful wedding planner as we navigated creating our full day vision of an Indian and Western wedding ceremony. Bringing and celebrating multiple cultures is not easy, but Melina made a lot of the work less stressful for my husband and I.
We developed a good relationship while planning for the event and with the help of Melina we were able to lock down many of our major vendors before inflation hit the wedding industry! She has a lot of great people she works with and it made choosing vendors much easier.
Our day long celebration was at the Doyle and Melina’s relationship with the venue’s team made locking in the site much easier.
She also gave helpful recommendations on where guests should stay. Most of our guests and my husband and I stayed at the Downtown Grand which was perfect. With the proximity to the venue guests were able to go back to their hotels and get ready for ceremony #2. Also, most guests were from out of town so they were able to enjoy Downtown Las Vegas.
Most of our meetings with Melina were on Zoom and communications were via email because we are not in Vegas. While we went back-and-forth via email having those virtual and in person meetings made the process easier.
This was Melina’s first Indian wedding and she learned a lot from the experience with all the small details that come with the traditions of this wedding. While there were some hiccups along the process my husband and I did not notice it based on the bigger picture of the event.
For those who are looking to work with Melina I want to emphasize this is a working relationship. She and her team give good suggestions on vendors and who to work with, and it is up to you to share what vision you have of the day with her and the vendors.
As I mentioned earlier there were some hiccups and that came with some breaks of communication. For example, we relied on family the day before the wedding to help get some fabric for the cabana for the event because of the excessive heat we were going to get on the day of the wedding. While going over the cabana options, we saw photos of how it can look with cloth but did not order/RSVP the cloth at the rental space, requiring family to get it. On the day of there was concerns over the hanging of the cloth on the cabana which caused some stress for my family as well.
On the day of the wedding Melina gave my husband and I the positivity and energy we needed for the day. She helped coordinate everyone and everything to keep everything as close to time as possible (because, of course, there can be some delay with holding such a large event!). She also helped keep the event schedule flexible with so much going on.
All in all we are grateful for Melina for helping us make our 2-ceremony day possible. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding planner!
