Shree P. Sent on 06/23/2023Simply the best!
I just recently got married in Austin, TX and I loved my experience working with Glitzzy events! I first started working with Cheryl a little under a year prior to the big day and she was gracious enough to take me on as a client despite her busy schedule. I am so thankful that she did because this wedding could not have been as amazing as it was without her and the entire team!
Cheryl was excellent at keeping us on track throughout the entire planning process. She is extremely detail oriented and was constantly suggesting things that really made a huge difference in our event. Because of her many years of experience in the wedding industry, she has developed a great list of vendors that she has excellent relationships with. It was very clear that vendors would go out of there way to communicate with us and accommodate our requests just because of this long standing relationship. Regardless, she was also great at working with some new vendors that we ended up going with!
As far as day-of event coordination goes, I cannot imagine our wedding without the Glitzzy team. We had initially planned an outdoor sangeet and wedding ceremony, but had to move everything inside due to poor weather. Cheryl, Melissa, Rohit, and the team coordinated everything with our venue, were on site immediately to confirm indoor locations, and worked seamlessly with our decorator and other vendors to make the appropriate changes. Most of my guests did not even realize that the events were originally planned for the outdoors!
We loved working with Glitzzy events for my wedding! After a year of planning, it really felt like I was just meeting with family every week to put my wedding together. Cheryl, Melissa, and Rohit really put their hearts and souls into making your wedding special for you and your family! I cannot recommend this amazing team of people enough! -

Glitzzy events LLC, is definitely not an unknown name when it comes to planning a wedding, a party of any kind or an event in central Texas. I must say this, and I feel immense happiness in saying this, that Glitzzy team exceeds their reputation and everyone’s expectation in planning, execution, and making any event go as smooth as freshly whipped cream. Cheryl, Rohit and Melissa paid diligent attention to every detail and went above and beyond to make our wedding beautiful and memorable. It is certainly possible to find many great event planners, but seldom we find people who, In addition to doing it passionately, bestow their warm and calming vibe to everything. Glitzzy team behaved with us just a like a family, while meticulously carrying out their professional duties throughout the event. In a particular incident, during the wedding events some of our stuff was forgotten in an Uber ride. I tried to contact the driver and Uber countless number of times over the next 2 days without any success. Cheryl went above and beyond to pull her contacts and resources, and miraculously located the driver and got our stuff back. That was a huge and pleasant surprise for us to receive our valuable items back. I would recommend Glitzzy events LLC to anyone and everyone, even in my sleep, without sparing a single strain of thought. -

Experienced & Connected
What we loved about working with Cheryl and her team is that they have been in the industry long enough to have made connections with most vendors in Austin and really know, not only Indian weddings but American weddings too. It was great having set meeting times knowing that the planning process was always moving. Cheryl, Rohit and their team are so kind and did a wonderful job making our day exactly what we wanted. Highly recommend, especially for any multi-cultural couples. Thank you!! -

Cheryl and the entire Glitzzy Events team were a joy to work with! Cheryl’s attention to detail, her vast experience in the wedding industry, and her people skills made the experience as low stress as it could’ve been for us, but a wild success. My husband and I had incredibly unpredictable work and school schedules and Cheryl was available to meet regularly at hours that worked for us (and was flexible if meetings needed to be rescheduled). Cheryl shined on the day of the wedding with all of the vendors working together in sync, all steps of the ceremony and reception happening on time and with all people in the know, and all questions and concerns from guests handled in real time by Cheryl and her team. Our wedding was the best day of our lives to date and Cheryl’s planning and execution were vital to that being the case. If you are looking for a warm, professional, and honest wedding planner who will execute your vision to the very last detail (and if you’re looking to meet some cool people!) then go with Glitzzy Events! -

Dream Team!
Cheryl and Rohit with Glitzzy Events are the planners of your dreams. They have different package options that can work with different budgets and needs, their response time is very quick, they take the time to understand your wants, desires, needs, they are never pushy, have excellent vendor recommendations (for people like us who had no idea where to start, that was amazing!), and most importantly, they make it so that you have no stress the day of your wedding! I was very worried looking for a planner as a Queer Indian/White couple who would understand us as a couple and be able to help us make our dreams come true. We couldn't have asked for a a more compassionate, knowledgeable, and kind team! -

I could not have imagined a better wedding planner for us than Cheryl from Glitzzy Events. She is absolutely the BEST. Through the whole process, she was so patient, flexible, and dedicated so much of her time and effort in setting up a timeline and meeting with us regularly. I needed someone who could help me make all decisions, big and small and Cheryl was the perfect guide due to how confident yet calm she is. Cheryl is good at establishing relationships because of how personable she is and you can feel how much she cares for the outcomes of the events, as well as the experiences of the guests, couple, vendors, and staff. Even though it definitely was not expected of her due to how busy she must have been, she added personal touches to many things such as little decor, having signs ready and set up at events, ensuring we were fed, and other numerous things that could have easily been missed by us during the actual weekend. We enjoyed meeting her husband Rohit and the rest of the team, who were all so pleasant and helpful. I would highly recommend Cheryl! -

I first met Cheryl when the bride’s mom, an Austin resident, booked her for our children’s wedding. With all of us scattered across the country, Cheryl kept us on track to ensure that every aspect of the wedding weekend would go off without a hitch. She was in contact with all the vendors to make sure that they would be there on time. She and her husband, Rohit, and their staff were at the venue hours before us and made sure that everything was set up as we had planned, and during the events, she made sure that the timeline was being adhered to. Cheryl was an instrumental component to the success of my son’s wedding in Austin in Oct. 2022. My husband still refers to that weekend, and its perfection, as the “best weekend of my life”. -

If you want a perfect wedding, Cheryl is your person!
When my parents told me and my California fiance that we had to have a wedding in Austin, TX (where they live), we knew right away that Cheryl would be the one to help us. It was the first wedding in my family, so we had no idea what we were doing. And on top of that, I wanted to do everything different from the traditional Pakistani weddings in the US. That means absolutely no hotel ballroom for any event! I wanted a beautiful garden/outdoorsy wedding with the best Desi food caterer in all of Texas. But what I didn't realize was how much extra work that entails, especially after COVID when the whole world was getting married at the same time. We needed a separate vendor for every single little thing possible - plates, fans, coolers, buffet tables, chairs, tents, etc etc. It was insane how many vendors were required to produce two 270 person events. Cheryl took care of EVERYTHING. She and her team handled every single vendor, and they knew exactly who to call and who to trust. Imagine dealing with all of these vendors during a time when every single one of them was understaffed, overbooked, and facing supply chain issues. Cheryl made sure every single vendor was on the same page. Thanks to her and her team, every single vendor delivered on each promise, and I know that was no easy task that just anyone could do, especially during these conditions. Here's an example - just the weekend before my wedding, two guests had fainted at the same outdoors venue I had booked. I was so worried the same would happen to my guests. Cheryl booked us evaporative coolers within just a couple of days before the wedding. I was really at ease knowing that no matter what conditions God threw at us that day, Cheryl would take care of us.
The only disappointment I had during my wedding was with how tardy my guests were, which obviously was nothing her team could control!
I consider Cheryl to be an angel of mine. Her experience in this space is unparalleled and you cannot go wrong with her. She will make sure every single wedding dream of yours is met! -

Krittika Sent on 06/16/2022Best planners ever! Like our family away from home.
We are so so glad we went with Cheryl & Rohit from Glitzzy events for our fusion Lutheran/South Indian wedding. Our wedding weekend was absolutely PERFECT thanks to them. Everyone knows wedding planning is super stressful, but they made it so easy and fun! They intentionally took the time to understand us as a couple and our families, so they could anticipate our needs before jumping into planning.
They were calm and collected when interacting with us, even though there was a lot going on behind the scenes of each event. They were extraordinarily detail oriented, and helped us keep track of everything. They have already built a vast network of vendors specifying in South Asian fusion weddings, which was so important since I'm a first generation Indian in the U.S. and don't have immediate family around to help. They were so prompt in communicating with us, especially when it got closer to the date of the wedding, and followed up with every single vendor to coordinate and make sure our day went off perfectly.
During COVID, costs started to sky rocket throughout the wedding industry, and Cheryl and Rohit were transparent with us about this from the beginning. As soon as they found out that costs were increasing, they let us know and helped us revise the budget. When we realized we couldn’t go over budget in certain areas to accommodate areas where we would have to go over budget (like food), they spent time trying to find creative solutions to help us stay within our budget while ensuring that our weekend was beautiful.
Cheryl designed and executed the decor for our Sangeet, and it’s an understatement to say that it was a smash hit! Our guests have been RAVING about her Sangeet decorations for months after the event. During our Sangeet and on our wedding day, Cheryl & Rohit made sure we were fed, happy and stress free, and that everything went smoothly on a set timeline. They are incredible event planners, and have organized and decorated other events for us like my mother’s 55th birthday and our house warming (graha pravesam) ceremony.
We 100% recommend them to anyone that we know, they are the BEST wedding investment that we made! Truly, our wedding would never have happened without them. They are so fun to work with, and are wonderful humans. In these big events, they have been like our family away from home. Love them both!

Shruti Sent on 01/20/2022Cheryl is truly the BEST!!
When we started planning our daughter’s wedding in October 2019, the first person that came to my mind was Cheryl Fernandes! We had known Cheryl and Rohit for a while, as we were neighbors and we had also attended some amazing events, including a wedding planned by Glitzzy Events. Cheryl and Rohit always have a very calm, pleasant and cheerful demeanor. I called Cheryl, with my fingers crossed, and asked her to be our wedding planner. She is one of the most sought after Indian wedding planners in Austin area and I was hoping her schedule matched ours when it came to finalizing the wedding date. She checked her calendar and informed that she would be able to help us in planning our daughter’s wedding, which was scheduled for November 2020. Our daughter’s wedding was unique as it was going to be a traditional Maharashtrian ceremony and the food for all events had to be completely Vegan. Cheryl was happy and excited to help us with these requirements.
The wedding planning was going well as per Cheryl’s guidance and then the pandemic started! It put a screeching halt on the wedding preparations. Everything became so uncertain, so unpredictable. Cheryl continued to support us in all our discussions. She cheered us up when we were all feeling very stressed. Finally, we (bride, groom and parents) took a collective decision to postpone the wedding till November 2021. As soon as we reached the decision, Cheryl immediately told us that she was going to drop off the call as she wanted to start contacting all our vendors to get them rescheduled and draw new contracts with them for the new wedding date! She sprang into action and within the next few days worked things out with our wedding venue and got us all the same vendors for the new rescheduled wedding date. Cheryl suggested us some of the best vendors, including photographer, videographer, hair & makeup, mandap, henna artist, saree draping expert, DJ and caterers!!
There were several challenges due to the limitations caused by the pandemic. Cheryl gracefully and gently navigated us through all the hurdles. Whether it was shopping for all Indian wedding outfits in the US, or online shopping for welcome bags, wedding favors, decorations, jasmine strings, flowers, Cheryl was our guiding light! Our unique requirement of having vegan food at all the wedding events was wonderfully handled by her. She suggested some of the best caterers who made fabulous Maharashtrian, Bombay Chaat, TexMex, Italian food, desserts and gorgeous wedding cakes (bride and groom’s cakes)…..all completely VEGAN!! The multiple food tastings were totally worth it!
The regular scheduled zoom calls with Cheryl helped us all. She kept us on track and things were done in a timely manner. Cheryl was always available for us no matter how small or how big our question was for her. If she did not have an answer for us at that time, she would always do her research and get back to us. Cheryl is absolutely passionate about her work and takes the load off of the parents shoulders. We experienced this throughout the process of two years (in our case due to rescheduling). In the last couple weeks before the wedding, she helped us deal with the last minute challenges caused by the local weather, delayed shipments, last minute surprises, etc. We were completely at ease because we had Cheryl on our team! Her attention to detail is outstanding!
I cannot say enough of the value Glitzzy Events brought to our daughter’s fairytale wedding! It was absolutely a dream wedding that our daughter always wanted, full of beauty, grace and warmth. It was a heartwarming experience to see her dream turn into reality. Cheryl and Rohit are absolute gems, incredible individuals. They personally took care of us (bride, groom and parents) throughout the entire wedding weekend, just like a sister or brother would do. More than wedding planners, they became part of our family. I would highly recommend Glitzzy Events in a heartbeat!!
