Not Only a Planner but a Friend
If I could rate this company infinity, I would, but I'm limited to five stars. My husband and I don't even know where to start!
Event Details: Indian Wedding, Hindu, 450 guests in Atlanta, GA. Hired for month of planning
Everything from start to finish was absolutely flawless, and unplanned hiccups from guests were handled immediately and smoothly (VERY few). With Big Guava Events (BGE), it feels like you have your friends by your side at all times. We wouldn't have trusted anyone else with our big day. In the beginning, we shopped around wedding planners and what stood out about BGE was the personal and genuine touch. Many of the big companies didn't have that, or they were just overly pushy and arrogant. Like I said, it felt like you had your friends taking care of you on your big day rather than a wedding planner. Honestly, who would you rather have?
BGE took the time to get to know us, our vision, provided us with materials to help us stay organized and prepared. We hired them for the month of, but that doesn't mean they wouldn't help if you sent them an email with a question. They were also realistic. They aren't there to tell you what you want to hear, but they will respect and try to make it happen. However if something isn't realistic, they'll let you know. You get complete honestly and transparency with BGE.
Everyone on this team was phenomenal. Rima was with me the entire time, Sahil was with my husband the entire time, so if we needed anything they were there. I never felt worried or stressed. Priya handled the fort extremely well and made sure things went smoothly. Avi got the most beautiful photos and always made sure I was taken care of. Dhruv made sure we were fed and were staying hydrated. He also made sure that we were taken of and kept a helpful eye on us!
The staff also took the time to get to know our friends and families. From the texting reminders of HMU and photos, to always making sure they were on top of things. Our families loved them! If you have family members who are overly worried and stressed, I am confident that BGE will win them over and they will enjoy the wedding.
You won't go wrong with this company. I will only trust BGE for any other event I throw. Look out BGE, you'll be coming to Atlanta more often! ;)
