    Amazing wedding planner

    Soltana and her team are a planning powerhouse! Soltana is incredibly knowledgeable and experienced in planning weddings and we would have been lost without her guidance. She ensured our wedding day was flawless and took any worries off our plates, helping us feel more comfortable, and she had all of our vendors on the same page, even with some last minute changes we made. Her friendly and attentive nature put us at ease and we are so grateful for the guidance she provided us leading up to the wedding and on our big day. She and the Velvet Alley team were available to troubleshoot at a moment’s notice on our wedding day and made sure everything was taken care of. There are so many things we simply wouldn’t have thought of, and Soltana helped us plan for it all to make our wedding really feel like us. Highly recommend!

    Soltana was such a pleasure to work with and so professional and calm. She knows exactly what she is doing and was very helpful in the planning process. She also communicated with other vendors on our behalf, and made sure everything was in the perfect place for the wedding. She set up everything exactly how we wanted it. Definitily worth it to hire her on for the entire night!

    Really great service!! Soltana brought enough assistants with her to cover every single detail of the wedding. They were all very attentive and nice to us and all the guests. It definitely shows the experience that they have in this business. I would definitely recommend to any bride out there to use Velvet Alley Events to coordinate their wedding, a MUST.

    Amazing experience all around - best decision to hire her se

    If you are thinking about hiring Velvet Alley Events for your wedding PLEASE DO IT. Soltana and her team were absolutely fantastic. Soltana is very kind, professional, and personable! I'm a VERY indecisive person and struggled with certain details; she made it all so easy for us. I sincerely couldn't imagine my wedding day without her - it ran so smoothly because of her. Thank you Soltana!

    We had our wedding at Eden Gardens in June 2015. We worked with Soltana and her team for the event planning. She asked all the right questions to prepare for the event and was able to offer guidance/recommendations when we were lost. On the big day, Jessica and Jenee helped everything run seamlessly! We got numerous compliments how smoothly everything ran. Even our photographers commented that they had never seen a wedding run so smoothly. Thank you for a wonderful day!

    I can't say enough good things about Soltana and her staff from Velvet Alley Events. Our wedding was up in San Miguel, California so Soltana and I only spoke on the phone and via email leading up to our wedding weekend. During this process, she was invaluable to the planning of our wedding, and offered great insight and suggestions for things I hadn't thought of. There were a few times I emailed Soltana in the middle of the night with a slight panic over a detail I had forgot, and it was always so comforting to receive a detailed response within the next day. As soon as I met Soltana in person during our rehearsal dinner I knew we were in great hands! My stress of the weekend instantly melted away and I could enjoy being the bride. Her and her staff were so organized and they had controlled coordinating with all our other vendors the weeks before the wedding (including fielding all vendor questions so help free up my time). The day of the wedding was flawless and I could not have asked for anything more from Soltana and her team. I would highly recommend them for your wedding (or other event) and they will be the first company I contact for any future event needs.

    Soltana is the BEST!

    Our wedding was August 9, 2019. We booked Velvet Alley for month-of coordination services. Soltana was always very prompt to respond to emails and phone calls. She was professional and cheerful and her office space is so cute! Wedding planning gets overwhelming but Soltana will make sure you understand what to do, when to do it and how to do it. The day of our wedding she was on point and so helpful. I can’t thank her enough. She was so thoughtful even asking me if I needed anything to drink, bringing me wine, making sure my family and I got to eat some appetizers, making sure my husband and I ate some dinner. And helping to fix my dress when my clasp broke off thanks to my new husband lol! She was a joy to work with and I was at ease knowing she was taking care of everything that day.

    First off let me say that I would recommend Soltana and her team to EVERYONE needing any kind of day of coordinating services. Her prices were extremely reasonable compared to other coordinators. I cannot imagine what we would have done without Soltana! Soltana was always available by text call or email at any time of the day for every question. She listened to every request and gave great advice for us wedding novices! The day of, I truly felt that Soltana and her team made the wedding as perfect as it turned out. They seemed to be everywhere at all times, problem solving and directing at every step. The best part about Soltana and the team I must say though was how genuinely invested and happy they all were to be apart of our wedding. They made sure everyone involved was doing what needed to be done but with a smile.

    My now husband and I had our wedding at Eden Gardens and we were fortunate enough to work with Soltana to prep for our special day. Since the first time we met her, she was super charismatic and we knew she was going to be a pleasure to work with right then and there. She was super responsive and always willing to answer any questions and give her honest, professional opinions. Soltana is all ears, willing to listen. She somehow always knew exactly what we wanted. You can tell that she loves what she does as she truly expresses it through her professionalism. She is willing to go above and beyond to accommodate your needs, and make sure you have the best, most amazing wedding day ever. My wedding would not have been the same without Soltana. My husband and I are truly grateful for everything she did for us, for our once in a lifetime event. Soltana played a huge role in what will truly made our wedding memorable.

    Soltana and her team were outstanding! There is no way our day would've been so perfect without her there! She went above and beyond the call of duty and we are forever grateful for her. You can't have a wedding without Soltana and Velvet Alley Events!!!

    We had the distinct pleasure of working with Soltana at Velvet Alley Events for our recent wedding. From the moment we met with her she was gracious, well- informed, helpful, considerate, and understanding of our needs. Her staff was very knowladgable and well trained. They also assisted in every way possible, from meeting with vendors to a timely set up prior to the wedding. She understood the vision we were trying to accomplish and went over an beyond what we had expected. We would deffinetly refer anyone to Velvet Alley Events.

    WHEN MY DAUGHTER (AND SON IN LAW) TOLD ME THEY WERE GETTING MARRIED I THOUGH, "I DON'T NEED A COORDINATOR, HOW HARD COULD IT BE?" WITHIN 4 HOURS I KNOW I NEEDED A COORDINATOR. WE ASKED AROUND, AN MY SON IN LAW IS IN THE EVENT BUSINESS AND ONE NAME CAME TO MIND "SOLTANA'. I COULD WRITE PAGES ON HOW TERRIFIC SHE WAS TO WORK WITH. HERE ARE THE HIGH NOTES:
    1) ALWAYS AVAILABLE.
    2) LISTENS.
    3) WORKS HARDER TO SAVE YOU MONEY VS. SPENDING.*
    4) NOTHING IS CUT, ABLE TO INCORPORATE EVERYTHING SEAMLESSLY.
    5) MAKES THE HARD DECISIONS LOGICAL.
    6) MANAGES/COACHES YOU THRU THE PEOPLE PROBLEMS.
    7) GOOD SENSE OF HUMOR.

    PROFESSIONAL & CAPABLE PEOPLE MAKE THINGS LOOK EASY, WE NEVER HEARD "I CANNOT GET TO IT" OR "I'M HELPING SOMEONE ELSE" YET WE KNOW SHE HAS MANY MANY EVENTS. AN EXAMPLE OF A BAD THING SHE MANAGED WAS WHEN A GUEST MISTOOK THE WEDDING CAKE AS PART OF THE CANDY DISPLAY AND TOOK A PIECE, BEFORE THE CAKE CUTTING. SHE JUST LOOKED AT ME AND SAID, "WE CAN DEAL WITH THIS AND TURNED THE CAKE AROUND SAYING "THEY WILL FIX IN THE PHOTOS, LET MOVE ON" AND WHAT HAPPENED, WE TURNED THE CAKE AROUND AND IT WAS NO BIG DEAL. "LEADERSHIP" WAY TO SOLTANA....

    AFTER ALL SHE DID AND THE WAY SHE COORDINATED THE VENDORS, I WOULD NEVER PLAN AN EVENT WITHOUT HER.

    SCOTT HUSTED
    FATHER OF THE BRIDE

    *I ESTIMATED SHE SAVED US FOUR TIMES THE AMOUNT OF HER FEE MAKING THE RIGHT CHOICES AND CHOOSING THE BEST VENDORS.

    Perfection from Start to Finish

    We cannot say enough amazing things about Velvet Alley Events and especially Soltana, who was our wedding coordinator. She was an absolute dream to work with from start to finish and played such a huge part in making our wedding the most magical day of our lives.

    Soltana went above and beyond in every possible way — from ensuring the entire day ran seamlessly to helping my wife with her dress throughout the night, she was there for us every step of the way. Her calm energy, incredible attention to detail, and genuine care made us feel so supported and stress-free.

    It truly felt like she sprinkled a little bit of magic over the entire day. Everything was executed flawlessly, and we owe so much of that to her and the Velvet Alley Events team. If you’re lucky enough to work with Soltana, trust that you’re in the hands of a total pro who will make your day feel effortless, beautiful, and unforgettable.

    We’ll be forever grateful for her and can’t recommend Velvet Alley Events highly enough!

    Soltana and her team are truly amazing to work with! Soltana was extremely organized and helpful with everything. She is very professional and she is definitely an expert at what she does. She has great ideas and suggestions, and she really works with you to make everything exactly the way you want it.

    We brought in our own centerpieces and a lot of our own decor, and I was a little unsure if everything would be set up how I envisioned it. I felt like I sent a very detailed email with everything that we were bringing and how we wanted it all set up, but I was still wondering if I was making a mistake by bringing in so much of our own stuff. Soltana responded to the email and wasn't phased at all with all of our requests! When we dropped everything off to her the day before the wedding, she was extremely calm and she had everything under control. It was very reassuring to see her so calm and confident about everything.

    Our wedding day could not have been more beautiful! Soltana and her team went above and beyond our requests and made everything look even more perfect than we could have imagined! We paid overtime charges to keep her and her team there until the end of the night, and it was definitely one of the best decisions we made for the wedding. We did not have to think about a single thing at the end of the night; they took care of all of the clean up, they put away everything that we brought in for the wedding, and they even helped direct everyone out of the venue to the shuttles at the end of the night. It was worth every penny and I would definitely suggest keeping her until the end of the night if you can!

    Having Soltana and her team with us on our wedding day was amazing. There is so much happening on your wedding day, so to not have to think about anything other than enjoying yourself and taking it all in is totally worth it! I would absolutely recommend hiring Soltana; you will be in very good hands!

    HUGE SHOUT OUT TO SOLTANA AND KAY!! Even though, on paper, we had Kay for our day-of-coordinator, I felt like we had Soltana and Kay as our planners.

    Husband and I live in SF so we had to Facetime with Soltana and Kay for our meetings but they were easy and very straightforward. Every time I felt anxious or panic-y, I remembered Soltana and Kay to feel at ease.

    On the day of – so. Much. Respect. For. Coordinators]. Kay and her assistant were angels. Other than Kay being by my side and basically running the show, my utmost respect for Kay was when my elder family members who did not speak English had questions/requests, Kay was patient with them by trying to understand them. I really appreciated that and cannot thank her enough.

    Team: if you're reading this, thank you again from the bottom of my heart <3

    Hands down, Soltana at Velvet Alley Events is the best! The wedding went off perfectly because of Soltana. She is dependable, honest, knowledgeable, kind, thoughtful, hard working, and an absolute pleasure to work with. Her prices were also very budget friendly, too. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

    We loved Velvet Alley! Can't recommend enough!!

    Having Velvet Alley run our big day played a HUGE part in our wedding being the best day of our lives. With so many moving parts, Soltana and her team were on it! Soltana has a way of handling it ALL with ease and a super friendly, calm demeanor. She was extremely responsive via phone/email whenever we had questions throughout the wedding planning process and we were so glad we brought her and her team on for the entire day at Eden Gardens, our venue. I would 100% recommend VA to anyone. My husband works in the wedding industry with hundreds of coordinators and felt so lucky to have this fantastic experience on his own wedding day. Thanks, Velvet Alley!

    We were really grateful and thankful for Soltana and her team! They provided expertise guidance during every visit and helped make suggestions on everything--even the small details that we did not think of. They also helped set up a lot of decor and items to perfection and went above and beyond in every way. I loved the way they rearranged the ceremony decorations for our reception area and sweetheart table. All of our guests were really impressed with the wedding planner and her team. As a couple getting married, there is a lot to plan for and Soltana responded quickly to any question that we had. She definitely relieved any stress during the planning period and day of.
