Love from our Couples
“Working with Minoti was delightful from the first introductory call. I had spoken to a few local Indian wedding planners and there was something about Minoti's demeanor and humble nature that sparked with my personality. She respected my questions, never made me feel like she was going to drive me down a path I was uncomfortable with, and our conversation were always easy.
My favorite part of working with Minoti was how charming, bubbly, and fun she was to be around. During a time where I was under tremendous stress after a long work day, and wedding planning with family on two coasts, she made things feel less complicated. Our décor planning meetings always felt more like a hangout with a close girlfriend versus a transaction with a vendor. Minoti offered up ideas based on her interactions with our personalities, and was never offended if we choose a different path. Additionally, Minoti would even catch me and ask me why I was straying from my original vision, and helped me make sure I wasn't compromising on anything from our earliest conversations.
The transformation we saw from our friend/design coordinator to our month of coordinator was something we very much so appreciated. She was able to be firm when needed, and responded to all of our emergencies and fire drills gracefully even when we were freaking out. Minoti had a naturally intuitive sense of what we were feeling (good or bad), and how to address our anxieties (whether they were warranted or unwarranted). I would highly recommend Vermillion Weddings to anyone. Minoti keeps her fingers on the pulse of what is trending, what is exiting/new, and what's overdone.
My parents who are very picky were so impressed with what we put together, and have been getting calls since the day after our events about how our wedding was the most fun and well organized event they had ever been to (this was both our Indian family, and our Indian/non-Indian friends.) Everything was seamless, and even day of emergencies were handled without any stress on us. I credit this to how Minoti organized our vision and made it into a reality that our family and guests could see, smell, taste, hear and feel. Thanks again for everything!”

Hiring Minoti and Vermilion Weddings was the best decision I've ever made! She completely took all the stress of wedding planning away from me and did a wonderful job!
We hired Minoti for our wedding planning and she was just fantastic! Words cannot express how happy my Fiancé and I are with Minoti Mehta and the entire Vermilion Weddings team. Her demeanor, professionalism, and friendliness are unparelleled. From the minute we signed with her, we knew we were in great hands as we were referred to her through a friend (one of her past Clients). She was always there for us through each step of the wedding planning process - whether we needed a mental break or had a series of questions regarding the different events, Minoti was always there to help. She managed to communicate to our families and run interference as needed when it came to vendors. She made sure we were okay every step of the way, at every point she would ask, "How are we feeling about this? Are we okay? Are we happy? I want to make sure you guys are happy." When you hire a wedding planner, you're looking to hire someone who helps ease the pain of wedding planning, not alienate you from the process. Every step of the way, my Fiancé and I got to choose what vendors we wanted, what the vision was, and Minoti helped solidify everything.
We cannot emphasize how professional her work was! Minoti would send out status dashboards and budget trackers to help make sure that everyone was on the same page - the parents, the vendors, herself, and us. My husband absolutely loved these as he also has a background in Project Management! On the day of the event, the entire team worked together to bring our vision to reality. I'm a total control freak and I love to be "in the know" for everything. Minoti knew this and said to me "sit down, let me take care of it" and she absolutely did! She took care of everything! Because she knew how much of a control freak I can be, she gave me updates throughout the day so I could lessen my anxiety.
Our entire family and everyone at the wedding all agreed that hiring Minoti and Vermilion Weddings was the best thing we could do for our wedding!

Perfection is what a wedding coordinator is hired for... But you get more than that with Vermilion! Polite, cordial, timely, great listener and always there to go above and beyond what's promised. All our events started on time and ended on time. Great job working with all our vendors and family that helped too. Everyone enjoyed working with Vermilion. All the pre-event work was done to perfection!!! Will use for other relatives weddings and continue referring to friends too.

I had an Event Planner booked that unfortunately bailed a few weeks before my wedding which I was planning from out of town. I began cold calling Wedding Planners in a panic and was referred to Minoti who was luckily free the day of my wedding. From our first call, Minoti put me at ease and made me feel like everything was going to be alright. She was quick to respond, she immediately communicated with all of the vendors that were already in place, and she created the best timeline I've ever seen. Everyone in our wedding party loved working with Minoti. She took charge without being rude or bossy. She went above and beyond traveling with us to our reception location just to make sure everything was going as planned (which was more than what was required in her contract) and she was absolutely adorable. I was able to feel like a guest at my own wedding because of Minoti's great work, and I'd recommend her to anyone without a doubt.

Minoti was fantastic to work with at our wedding! She has a great eye for what will look great to the guests and in pictures, is personable and charming with guests, and paid close attention to what we wanted our wedding to be. All in all, I can't say enough about Vermilion Weddings and Minoti. I'd recommend her again and again.

What an incredible night it was!!! It was an absolute pleasure to work with Vermilion Weddings.
Minoti, your work is absolutely flawless and you blew us away with how beautiful every detail was! It was just amazing!
Words cannot describe how magical it was on Sunny and Punita's Wedding day. I cannot even begin to tell you Minoti, how much you have exceeded all my expectations! From ceremony to the reception, every little detail was just perfect in every way.
The Vermilion Weddings team was also incredible! Each and every one of them was so professional, dedicated, hospitable and welcoming. It just made the whole experience even more enjoyable. you were all so amazing to work with and I am so looking forward to working with you again!

We cannot recommend Vermilion Weddings enough! My wife and I hired Minoti for 1-month of coordination services. In that time, she worked diligently to ensure our big day was a success. Minoti understood our vision, and made sure it was executed flawlessly. Her attention to detail and strong communication skills were key to the success of the event. Minoti was consistently friendly, organized, professional, and responsive to our needs in every interaction we had with her.
