Our Wedding Was A Dream Thanks To Zakiya
Zakiya was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING for our wedding in October! By far one of our best vendors. She was available when we needed her, walked us through everything we needed for our day, and helped us organize the vendors we booked. Everyone could not stop talking about how well Zakiya did on our wedding day and how everything was so organized. She even took over as an MC when our DJ failed to perform and everyone loved her! If you are contemplating hiring her, just do it. She was awesome to work with and really made us feel like we were a team. -

Lifesaver!
Zakiya was a lifesaver in day of coordination. I honestly would've been so lost without her. She knew how to ask all the right questions and get all the right info from my vendors. Although I only hired her for day of coordination, I felt she delivered above and beyond that. If you are type-A at all, Z will bring you peace of mind and perform above your standard. If you are not type-A, all the more reason to require her services and hire her :) Seriously, I can't thank Z enough for everything she did for us and she just made our wedding day go that much smoother. -

Supportive, best wedding friend
My husband and I contacted Zakiya for our wedding in September 2022. We set up a brief phone call and knew that she would be a good fit for our wedding.
We had a Christian ceremony but included some Indian elements that Zakiya knew how to incorporate wonderfully. Leading up to the wedding, she was our rock when it came to pretty much all things wedding. Would suggest Zakiya being your first booking in the whole wedding planning process.
The day of we planned for an outdoor ceremony and of course, it rained for the hour and a half we were supposed to be outside. She handled talking to the vendors and switching around our day so wonderfully. All I had to do was sit upstairs and drink a cocktail ...or two.
Would highly recommend Zakiya for your big day! Loved working with her.

Fantastic Wedding Coordinator
I am the leader of the Park Avenue Orchestra and we had the pleasure to work with Zakiya Johnson from Event Z Planning for an incredible Wedding Reception. We worked together on a weather related day was met with a overwhelming solutions. Zakiya was so organized as an event coordinator and the Wedding Reception was a total success due to all her efforts. We had a very happy Bride & Groom.
She has an incredible character matched with impeccable friendliness. Her organizational skills are highlighted throughout the entire Wedding outline process.
If you are looking for a very great professional, feel free to contact her. She is one of the Best in the Industry and will ensure a complete process with the Events Planning Program. -

Completely Worth Every Penny!
I can't emphasize enough how much of a life saver Zakiya was in our wedding planning process! She consistently went above and beyond our expectations. For starters, our original venue went out of business only 9 months before our (Saturday) June wedding which we have been told is one of the 8 most popular wedding days in the entire year! We we were so worried about finding a new venue on such short notice (especially since we were planning the wedding from far away in NYC), but she launched into hero mode and provided us with many alternatives. We were so happy with the venue we ended up choosing! Another example of her thoroughness and efficiency – Zakiya miraculously set up everything for our wedding while also juggling 10+ conversations with all our vendors the morning of our wedding due to a severe weather forecast including the threat of lightning. We went through several different iterations of plans as the weather kept changing and she made sure all the vendors knew what to do when. That alone was worth hiring her! But she did so much more. Zakiya was so fun to work with throughout the process – she always responded promptly to my (many) emails and questions. I promise you won't regret hiring EventZ for your wedding! Thank you so much for making our wedding such a beautiful, special day, Zakiya! -

We highly recommend Zakiya!
My wife and I hired Zakiya for our wedding at Tilden Park in the Berkeley, CA hills in June 2022 and we can't recommend her highly enough! Hiring Zakiya was one of the best decisions that we made in our wedding planning process, as she went above and beyond to make everything go super smoothly! It was a truly magical evening where everything came together perfectly, and that definitely would not have happened without Zakiya on our team. Our wedding day flew by so quickly, and Zakiya always seemed to be in the right place at the right time to lend a helping hand.
Communication with Zakiya in the months leading up to the wedding was always prompt and professional, and she helped us consider several important details that we would have otherwise overlooked in our planning process. She brought a terrific attitude, and we particularly appreciated her eagerness to work with us on her first Jewish wedding (which certainly has more moving parts than a typical secular wedding).
Thanks so much for everything Zakiya! -

Zakiya made my wedding celebration absolutely seamless.
Zakiya coordinated our one-year anniversary/delayed wedding reception party in May 2022 in Chicago, and I would recommend EventZ to friends, family, and strangers on the street. I would shout recommendations for her from tall buildings if anyone could hear it. I really cannot recommend Zakiya strongly enough. As soon as I talked to her when we were searching for wedding coordinators, I knew she was the right choice. She exudes confidence and competence. She is an organized person who knows how to throw a fun party, and that is exactly what you need in a wedding coordinator. She'll give you ideas when you need them and she'll make your ideas come to life.
I loved that I could just give her the decor, the vague plans for the evening, and a few requests, and I knew she would handle everything beautifully. She not only did an amazing job coordinating everything the day of, but she also filled me with confidence that she could handle any issues that might arise. I don't even know if and how she handled any issues during the event, because they never became issues to me!
Hiring Zakiya as our coordinator took so many small worries and to-do's off my plate, and when you're planning a wedding while also trying to work and live your life, that is exactly what you need. Hire her! -

Without Zakiya, our wedding would've felt overwhelmingly stressful!
My wife and I worked with Zakiya for our wedding that was delayed at one point due to COVID, and then basically fast-tracked into happening. We can't stress this enough, Zakiya is the ONLY reason the wedding went flawlessly!! Without her prepping and planning, there's no way that we could have done it. She is an absolute rock-star! The most important part of the day itself is enjoying it with your bride or groom to be, and the way that Z works, allowed us to be able to really rejoice in the moment through all of the chaos and stress, and for us to be able to take every second of our beautiful day in. Anytime we needed anything, Zakiya was right there. She always had an answer, had an idea and most importantly, it felt like she was always right there when we needed her the most. From planning setup in the venue, to coming up with fun and unique ideas on creating memories, her wealth of knowledge in this industry is unmatched, and she truly will have your best interest in heart. Zakiya is the BEST!! We wouldn't want to put our trust into anyone other than her, for our special day. -

EventZ was perfect!
Zakiya did an amazing job with our wedding. We hired her as our wedding day coordinator, because we needed help organizing logistics of our wedding (i.e. organizing schedule, working with vendors, the ceremony and rehearsal). Along every step of the way, Zakiya did an excellent job of planning every detail of our wedding day to perfection. She constantly thought of certain wedding details we would have completely ignored (such as where to put our welcome table, decoration ideas, first dance). She had a lot of great energy and is able to get the job done. We highly recommend Zakiya and EventZ to anyone! -

The best wedding Planner out there
I hired Zakiya as our wedding coordinator back in 2019 for our wedding in 2020 but covid pushed it 2021. Zakiya was always on top of everything from the first phone conversation we had to the very last. She would check in to see if I needed anything and always made sure I was on top of what I needed to do for the wedding. Which was really helpful because if not for her I would have done everything last-minute. She was great in recommending other vendors she had worked with in past weddings. I really appreciated that because there's so many out there to choose from and to have her give me her recommendations was one thing I really liked about her. Theres so many great things I could say about Zakiya but one thing I loved about her was her detailed to the smallest thing even I didn't think about. For the last month of our wedding I put it all into her hands and she executed everything that I had envision for my wedding and more. I made so many changes on the last week of the wedding and she still made sure it all got taken care of without any problems. Our wedding day was perfect because of her and she made sure I was stress free. I would highly recommend Zakiya not just for your wedding but any party you are having because she is truly the best out there. -

Professional, Dedicated, and Attentive Wedding Planner
From start to finish, Zakiya delivers perfection. Zakiya help me to negotiate with vendors, provided options for vendors if needed, gave advice and listened to me vent after needing to reschedule for a second time due to COVID.
I had no idea how much goes into a wedding and Zakiya helped to make everything go flawlessly. She has so many resources and is so organized. I could not have done it without her.
Day of our wedding, she knew how to get things done. Made sure all of the special moments we wanted to capture were completed and kept the wedding flowing. Her and her assistant Miriam kept us all on track and really help to make my wedding feel so special.
Zakiya, you truly made my wedding day go so seamlessly. Thank you for all your hard work!-
