Working with Rojin from Baroj Events was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the very beginning, she brought a level of professionalism and calm that imme...
diately put us at ease.
Rojin has an incredible eye for detail—every element of our day felt intentional, cohesive, and beautifully executed. The timeline and overall flow of the event were seamless. What really sets her apart is how effortlessly she manages everything behind the scenes. On the day of the wedding, we were able to be fully present and enjoy every moment because we knew we were in expert hands. She handled any challenge quietly and efficiently, and everything ran flawlessly.
Beyond her expertise, Rojin is simply wonderful to work with—kind, responsive, and genuinely invested in making your day special. If you’re looking for a planner who will go above and beyond and deliver an unforgettable experience, I can’t recommend her highly enough.

Rojin and her assistant did an amazing job with our multicultural wedding. She was knowledgeable on Indian traditions which made it easy to communicate our ideas and vendor needs. ...
Our wedding had a double ceremony with quick outfit changes and surprise performances which she perfectly coordinated with the different vendors and kept us on schedule.
We planned everything remotely and sight unseen so it was comforting to have Rojin recommend reputable vendors and be our in town contact. She was very communicative, gentle, yet assertive enough to push for our vision. She was organized and provided us with many templates and documents to guide us throughout the process.
We would highly recommend Baroj events and loved them for their organization, responsiveness, and transparency. Thank you again Rojin!!

Working with Rojin and Baroj Events was the right choice for our wedding! Rojin was always easy to communicate with. She is responsive, decisive, and warm in her honesty (which I r...
eally needed as a bride with decision fatigue!). She brought clarity and confidence to every meeting we had and hustled both behind the scenes and on the big day.
We chose the 3-month package and added the Single Vendor Sourcing service, which really helped us solidify our final vendors. Rojin handled all vendor communications, helped build our day-of timeline, and shared organization tools for layouts, payments, schedules, inventory, and to-do lists. Even while juggling multiple weddings, she remembered every detail and made us feel like we were her only clients.
We had some last minute changes and a large wedding party, which wasn’t always easy to wrangle, but Rojin and her team still kept everything on track. On top of that, she was knowledgeable and respectful of our interfaith (Jewish/Catholic) ceremony and our diverse family backgrounds, which meant so much to us.
Rojin also went above and beyond at the end of the night by taking home the bulk of our personal items so we could Uber straight to our afterparty and fully enjoy the rest of our weekend. Picking everything up from her afterward was convenient and such a relief. It’s little details like these that are a testament to Rojin’s level of commitment and thoughtfulness.
We wholeheartedly recommend Baroj Events to anyone planning their wedding!

Her team handled everything behind the scenes with such professionalism and care, making the whole experience stress-free and joyful.
If you want a coordinator who will take the stress out of your big day and make sure everything is perfect, I can’t recommend Rojin and her team highly enough!

Rojin was, without a doubt, the most perfect wedding planner we could have asked for. We honestly can't put into words how grateful we are for her hard work, advice, wisdom, and su...
pport throughout the planning process and on the day itself. She made our wedding a truly seamless and beautiful event.
From the very beginning, Rojin championed our vision and priorities, never once pushing us toward trends that didn't feel authentic to us. She helped us find an incredible team of vendors on an expedited, eight-month timeline who created a spectacular event, all while sticking to our budget. We were truly blown away by how everyone went above and beyond, and our multicultural wedding was more beautiful than we could have ever imagined. Her analytical mindset (thanks to her engineering background) and resources like a priority-setting worksheet, a detailed budgeting spreadsheet, and an exhaustive task list template (with due dates!) helped us stay organized and accomplish our milestones in a timely manner.
One of the most valuable things Rojin did was help us incorporate the key practices from both of the rich traditions we each came from in a way that felt meaningful to us and our families and was accommodating to all our guests. She also helped us navigate the delicate balance of managing our families' expectations.
We always looked forward to our meetings with Rojin. Even during stressful moments in our planning process, we'd leave feeling a sense of confidence and security. That same calming presence made all the difference on our wedding day, which went so smoothly. We've received countless compliments from guests on how special they felt and how seamlessly the day flowed, and a huge portion of that credit goes to Rojin and her assistant Sarah.
If you're looking for a wedding planner who is not only a fantastic and experienced professional but also a calming and supportive presence, look no further than Rojin. She is simply the best, and we are going to miss working with her!

TLDR: Baroj Events was the best decision for our Hindu (Gujarati) wedding & reception - friends and family agreed too!
When we started planning our big fat Hindu (Gujarati) weddin...
g, we knew we wanted help through a wedding planner as well as a day-of coordinator. As we were browsing through wedding planning vendors, we appreciated how Baroj Events offered an “a la carte” selection of planning services (as we had already knew our venue that included the food & beverage package) so we would be able to customize it to our remaining needs.
We had our initial call with Rojin Babayan (the owner of Baroj Events) and immediately we clicked with her and appreciated her kind & knowledgeable approach to the wedding industry while not having any particular affiliations with vendors - AKA her opinions were only from her own experiences.
As we began working with Rojin, we quickly realized that she was excellent in keeping us aligned to deadlines for completing wedding tasks. We had about 1.5 years to plan our big day so Rojin was able to build in some breathing room as we made big decisions - decor, DJ, photo, video…etc. She could sense when we were getting overwhelmed by all the different available options and helped us narrow down the list through pros & cons or suggested pivoting to a different vendor while we finalized our thoughts.
Rojin is very easy to communicate with - we used iMessage, Instagram (very helpful to be able to send her inspiration or additional vendors we wanted her to inquire with), email, WhatsApp, video calls - she was very accommodating.
Rojin’s awesome reputation in the industry also led us to receiving exclusive deals - a surprising ancillary perk that only further confirmed our decision to use Baroj Events!
Jumping to day of the wedding - Rojin joined me at 6AM while I was getting my HMU done and then began her wonderful time tracking. She ensured we had plenty of time for our First Look, the Baraat started at a timely manner, the flowers were delivered and properly stored etc… We had a Memorial Table that Rojin set up on our behalf - so many additional tasks like this that made the day so smooth not only for us but also for our guests who could enjoy the event instead of having to help us set up items etc. Every time I had a thought of “did we do XYZ, Rojin?” it was quickly met with a yes!
Rojin not only supported us as a couple but also our families - my mom trusted Rojin to go into her hotel room to grab gold for the wedding event, a task that only the most trustworthy are assigned. Rojin was quickly recognized as a reliable source of help.
During the reception, Rojin helped organize all our family for their entrances and had all our our “fun items” ready to go - foam glow stick, shirts for an audience t-shirt toss, and my Husband’s LED sneakers to change into our the dance floor. She led my husband and me to the food buffet to ensure we properly sat down and ate dinner (which I’m not sure would’ve happened without her!).
All in all - if there was one decision we are so happy we made, it was choosing Baroj Events and recommend her to anyone looking for wedding (or any) planning!

Rojin was a pleasure to work with and made planning our wedding soooo much easier!! As a day-of coordinator, she quickly got caught up to speed on everything two months out from th...
e wedding day, and immediately assumed the role of primary contact person with all our vendors, which was extremely helpful. She also led us through a super detailed master checklist of everything we could possibly want at the wedding, and expertly crafted a detailed timeline to guide us through the day. Strong attention to detail paired with a genuine, kind, and caring personality makes for the perfect wedding planner—the whole process was extremely professional and well-done, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Rojin took care of everything, ensuring that every aspect of our wedding ran smoothly. She was always one step ahead, anticipating potential issues and resolving them before they could even become a concern. Thanks to her, we avoided so many headaches and were able to fully enjoy our day without any worries.
Her communication was clear, professional, and warm throughout the process, making it easy to trust her with such an important event. She worked seamlessly with all of our vendors, kept our timeline on track, and made sure every detail was exactly as we envisioned.
We are so grateful for Rojin’s hard work and dedication. If you’re looking for someone who will go above and beyond to make your wedding day truly perfect, Rojin is the one!
Thank you again, Rojin—you made our day unforgettable!

Rojin (the founder of Baroj Events) was absolutely fantastic. I wish we hired her for the full year instead of just the month. My husband and I recently got married in Chicago at C...
afe Brauer with an offsite Church Ceremony. It was an 170-person wedding with about 140 that came from out of town. Additionally, there were A LOT of tiny details (like any wedding) but I am extra crazy and stressed myself with more steps than probably necessary. From the start Rojin was on top of EVERY detail that I wanted to look into and even reminded me of things that I completely did not think of. You could tell IMMEDIATELY that Rojin was beyond organized and knew her stuff. I did not have one thing to worry about the day of (or even afterwards as she helped with clean up and took items hope that we picked up after the Honeymoon). She was able to lead whatever you requested of her and was a great communicator with the vendors. Whatever detail big or small she was not only willing to handle but did so with flawless execution. I only have great things to say about Rojin and her work. I truly could not have executed the final details of my wedding without her. Hire her and you will not be disappointed.

WOW! Rojin was absolutely amazing! She was key in making our special day run smoothly. We hired Rojin for Day-of coordination for our wedding at City View Loft this September. She ...
went over and above our expectations and made our day so perfect. Rojin is very detailed and organized. We met multiple times before our wedding, and she was always available to answer questions or help us out. She covered every single detail during our discussions, to ensure everything was accounted for. Rojin truly cares about her clients and enjoys the work she does. When our videographer failed to show up on our wedding day, Rojin took it upon herself to capture some special moments for us, on top of handling every other logistical detail. She truly is a wonderful coordinator and kind person. I can’t recommend her highly enough.

We hired Baroj Events / Rojin as our month-of coordinator for our August wedding and I honestly have no idea what we would've done without her, particularly on the day of our weddi...
ng. She took the time to listen to what we did (and didn't) need help with and customized our package according to those needs. She's amazing at identifying pain points and helping smooth things over, and is an all-around incredibly smart, well-organized and detail-oriented professional.
Not only was Rojin helpful, communicative and accessible in the month leading up to our wedding, but she truly went above and beyond on the day of. She had the seemingly impossible task of setting up our entire wedding reception in one hour (including florals, candles, menus, place cards, gift table, etc.) while simultaneously managing our wedding ceremony in another location in the park. Not only did Rojin and her assistant Vanessa pull it off, but they did an absolutely amazing job. Our wedding was entirely DIY, and we left them with boxes of decor, a million bud vases and very little direction and they brought everything to life PERFECTLY. We were so appreciative of their attention to detail and the care they gave to setting everything up, particularly given the extremely tight timeframe.
We're so grateful to Rojin and her assistant and glad we chose her as our coordinator. I can't recommend her enough!

You will not regret hiring Rojin as a day-of-coordinator and we wish we could’ve had her help us plan the whole event.

From the day we hired her, Rojin was always there if we had any questions - it was a relief having her on our team!
I would highly recommend hiring Rojin for your wedding! She is professional, detail-oriented, calm under pressure, and kind. You'll be so happy to have her planning your wedding!

Rojin from Baroj Events is an absolute rockstar wedding planner! She totally had my back from day one and helped me stay calm when those pre-wedding jitters hit. Seriously, she was...
like a personal therapist, life coach, and a cheerleader throughout the whole planning process! What really impressed me was how Rojin handled unexpected hiccups like a boss. She's a total problem-solving ninja and kept everything on track without breaking a sweat. No drama, just smooth sailing. I can't even count how many times she saved the day!
Communication with Rojin was a breeze. She's super responsive and always had time for my questions and concerns. It felt like chatting with a friend who genuinely cared about making my day perfect. She really listened to what I wanted and made it happen.
I can't recommend Baroj Events enough! If you want a wedding planner who's passionate, talented, and has your back no matter what, look no further. Thank you, Rojin, for creating the wedding of my dreams. You're a total rockstar!

She was the perfect wedding coordinator for me and I don't think the day would have been as amazing without her.

Rojin is the best, we were so lucky to have her help with planning our wedding in July 2022. She went above and beyond to help us have our dream wedding. Anything we asked for, she...
did a great search to find the best options. Anytime we were stressed out about anything, we just called her right away and she always made us calm by finding a solution! She was kinda our therapist. So I had absolutely nothing to stress about just because of her. Every little detail and every step of the way, she will take care of it better than I can imagine it. She was very organized, detail oriented, professional, calm, and most-importantly she listened and cared. For anyone who is on the fence about hiring Rojin, do it. You will not regret it. I will highly recommend her ~ SHE IS THE BEST.

Rojin threw a “couple shower” for us in March 2022 right around the time that the Pandemic was starting to wind down. Throughout this entire process, we were amazed by her attentio...
n to detail and professionalism. Her package included everything else that others were offering, but her understanding of our relatively unusual needs made her superior to any other choice that we had in the market. Before our night, she spent a lot of time through in-person and remote meetings with us just to get to know us and make sure she understands what we wanted. By the end of this almost two months process, we felt like she knows us like a close friend and she knows exactly what we wanted. On the night of the event, she managed all her resources seamlessly, to the point that after the party, we were wondering how she was able to coordinate all the logistics around that night without us even noticing. She also surprised us with a customized gift by the end of the night which was so thoughtful. We also noticed that she was enjoying every little step of the process which made everything a lot easier for us. We definitely recommend Baroj Events!

Rojin was our “Wedding Day Coordinator” on April 2022. We absolutely can’t imagine our wedding day without her! She managed a major issue which had the potential to turn into a cri...
sis. For some reason, our sound system was acting up, and our DJ couldn’t figure out the problem. She reacted to the incident very calmly and managed to find the standby technician quickly while we were just looking at each other trying to understand what had happened. And our guests responded to this very positively and it was like they were really enjoying themselves by singing and dancing while the issue was getting fixed. Without her, this two-minute incident could’ve ruin our night, but instead, now we have a beautiful memory of an issue that was outside of our control. Throughout that night, she was always there for us, by her attention to details. She was noticing small imperfections in Bride’s wedding dress while the Bride was dancing. She was fixing all those imperfections that she noticed on the fly. We didn’t even notice everything that she did, not till six months later when we were watching our wedding movie. We recommend her Wedding Day services.

Rojin was our wedding's day-of coordinator in August 2022 in Chicago. She far exceeded our expectations of a coordinator. She would take responsibility like it was her own wedding....
She was not there just to do her job, but to make sure everything is done as expected and everyone (bride, groom, and the guests) will be happy with the experience.
You would be the most stressed on the day of your wedding, and when something unexpected happens, you easily lose control. I was impressed by Rojin maintaining the balance between keeping us calm and relaxed and at the same time being realistic with her problem-solving attitude. With her being there, we felt like we don't need to be worry about anything, and can simply enjoy our wedding. Hiring Rojin turned a super stressful day into one of the most cheerful days in our life!
