"My husband and I can't stop remembering how good Kadija is at what she does. I got used to saying that it goes beyond a contract. She is kind, she shows to have a lot of experience in her work.

"Kadija was the most wonderful, switched on and thoughtful wedding planner. From the moment we had our initial call, she made us feel at ease. We were considering coordinating our wedding ourselves, but thank God we didn't - thanks to Kadija we could enjoy our day and not worry about all the little things that happen behind the scenes.

My husband and I can't stop remembering how good Kadija is at what she does. I got used to saying that it goes beyond a contract. He is kind, shows he has a lot of experience in his work. She is able to foresee good and not so good situations (especially when we take a while to do what she has instructed us to do). And even if we weren't able to do everything, the way she instructed, she is the first to find a solution to the problem. In contact with her, there is no such old expression: "I told you so!" She uses every resource, including her own, to make our party unforgettable. On top of that, she is "transparent" at my wedding, we saw how hard she works, silently and everything worked perfectly. The party was so good that we had a couple of guests who, the week of the wedding, warned us that they wouldn't stay long at the party. To our surprise, this couple was one of the last to leave!!! Of course, the party was amazing!!! Ah, Kadija! Thank you very very very much! What a delight it is to work with professionals like you!

Kadija was the most wonderful, switched on and thoughtful wedding planner. From the moment we had our initial call, she made us feel at ease. We were considering coordinating our wedding ourselves, but thank God we didn't - thanks to Kadija we could enjoy our day and not worry about all the little things that happen behind the scenes. She offered advice based on her experience, but was never pushy, and she was patient, calm and thoughtful when it came to the lead up of the wedding and during the day. I could text her like I would a friend, and she was 100% in our corner throughout the whole process, even though we had a slightly odd schedule for our wedding and reception. I would 100% recommend Kadija - she went above and beyond and is such a kind and sweet person too. Couldn't have done it without her!

My wife and I recently had the pleasure of working with Kadija for our wedding, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. From the initial consultation to the final send-off, she demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and a genuine commitment to making our special day unforgettable. Kadija listened attentively to our vision and preferences, offering valuable suggestions and guidance every step of the way. Their attention to detail was impeccable, ensuring that every aspect of the ceremony and reception was executed flawlessly.

Is there anything we need to consider/do differently for a weekday wedding?

Hi there. We're considering a weekday wedding, maybe a Thursday or Sunday. Is there anything ] different or unexpected we'd need to consider about having a non-weekend wedding?

The Happiness Ring

Hi Bride.

Yes, there are some things to consider when having a weekday wedding:

Is your wedding a destination wedding?

Do the majority of your guests need to take time off work to travel? Are they anticipating a multi-day event? If your guests' calendars are already blocked off, then you’ve got more flexibility with the day of the week you choose.

In Regards to a Thursday or Sunday wedding, there are two main difference between the way to see the party happening:

Thursday and Friday nights are still considered 'party nights. People are at the end of their work week, or they can get the beginning of their work done, make the event, and still feel like they have more days to recover before they have to be back at work.

On the other hand with Sundays you’re running into everyone’s upcoming week, and your guests' mindset may not be in party mode.

Some pros are:

You can secure your drem vendor

You will save money

You can draw low your guest list

Some cons are:

Not everyone will be able to attend

The party might not deliver the same mood as wekeend wedding (work hard, play not too hard)

Save the date/invitation will need to be send in a longer notice.

I hope that helped.
