From the very beginning, we knew we wanted our wedding to be more than just a weekend of events—we wanted to create an experience that reflected who we are and brought joy to all o...
ur guests. Thanks to Cheryl, Rohit, Simran, and the entire Glitzzy Events team, that dream became a reality—and truly, it was beyond anything we could have imagined.
Planning a destination wedding from Vancouver, while having no family or friends in Austin, was a daunting thought. But Cheryl made what could have been a stressful process feel seamless and even exciting. Her calm presence, creativity, and incredible organizational skills turned every challenge into an opportunity to make things even better.
Over three unforgettable days, we celebrated five events—a warm Welcome Dinner, a traditional Grah Shanti/Haldi, a vibrant Sangeet, a breathtaking Wedding ceremony, and an elegant, travel-themed Reception. Each event felt distinct, yet beautifully cohesive, thanks to Cheryl’s attention to detail and her team’s flawless execution. She not only understood our vision, but elevated it with thoughtful touches that reflected our personalities and cultures. From decor and food to vendor coordination and timing, everything ran like clockwork.
Throughout the planning journey, Cheryl was more than our planner—she was our guide, confidant, and at times, our superhero. She navigated the emotions of wedding planning with empathy, supported us through our ups and downs, and always ensured we felt heard and cared for. Her communication and commitment gave us peace of mind every step of the way.
Our guests flew in from across the U.S., Canada, and even Belgium, and days later, we were still receiving messages like, “I haven’t danced like this in decades,” and “This was the best wedding I’ve ever been to.” Hearing that from the people we love most was the ultimate gift, and it’s all thanks to the hard work and passion of the Glitzzy team.
Cheryl and Rohit started out as our wedding planners—but by the end, they became our family. We cannot recommend Glitzzy Events highly enough to anyone looking for a truly special and unforgettable wedding experience.
WE LOVE GLITZZY! ❤️

dibly communicative, organized, and genuinely invested in making our vision come to life. Planning an Indian wedding can be complex, but Cheryl’s experience really showed. She always had thoughtful suggestions, helped us navigate vendor decisions, and made the entire process feel so much more manageable.
One thing that really stood out was how highly all of our vendors spoke about Cheryl and her team. It gave us so much confidence knowing we were in such good hands. Rohit was also amazing during the wedding week. He was so hands-on and always around when we needed anything. From early mornings to late nights, the team was there for whatever came up, big or small.
Cheryl was not just a planner, but a true partner throughout this journey. We genuinely couldn’t have pulled off such a seamless and beautiful celebration without Cheryl, Rohit, and the Glitzzy Events team. So grateful for them!

ly sharing her valuable ideas/opinions based on her extensive experience in the industry. Simran and Rohit remained supportive and helpful throughout the process, actively participating in the meetings and assisting with brainstorming solutions to potential obstacles. We particularly appreciated that they understood important cultural elements of a good Indian wedding. On our wedding day, they ensured everything was organized and timely, running the entire operation seamlessly. They were quick to help out as needed, including for spontaneous/unexpected assistance that was required. We received feedback from several family and friends (in attendance and those watching through live stream) that our wedding was very well-planned: This would not have been possible without the professional coordination by Glitzzy Events. The cherry on top was that they did it all with a warm, friendly smile on their face and a positive attitude. We are grateful for the magical day they helped create for us and wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone seeking an amazing team of wedding coordinators!!

They were open-minded and flexible with all our requests, including the last-minute ones, and took everything in stride with a positive attitude. One thing we appreciated the most was how thoughtful they were about taking care of us, they literally made sure we were fed on time throughout the day so we could enjoy our wedding without missing a moment.

We worked with Glitzzy Events for full planning of our Sangeet, Hindu ceremony, Western ceremony and reception, and we can honestly say that working with Cheryl was one of the best...
decisions we made throughout the entire process. From day one, she brought an energy that was both calming and confident—exactly what we needed as we navigated such a big moment in our lives.
She was by our side every step of the way, setting up weekly planning calls, coordinating with vendors, and giving us thoughtful advice that always felt tailored to us. Anytime we found ourselves stuck between decisions or had differing opinions, her recommendations consistently turned out to be exactly what we needed—creative, elegant, and well-executed.
What really stood out was how thorough and relentless she was in making sure everything ran smoothly, down to the smallest detail. She didn’t miss a beat, and because of her, we were able to be fully present and truly enjoy our wedding weekend without stress. And it was not just us, our parents could sit back and be fully present the whole weekend too.
Our wedding weekend turned out better than we could have imagined—joyful, beautiful, and seamless. We’re incredibly grateful for her guidance, care, and expertise. If you’re planning a wedding and want someone who genuinely cares, Glitzzy Events is who you want by your side.

d in and took charge. From our very first call, she was the picture of professionalism: always on time, obsessively detail-oriented, and brimming with creative fixes. She coordinated every vendor down to the tiniest detail, and made sure nothing slipped through the cracks—while keeping us constantly updated with lightning-fast replies.
Rohit—Cheryl’s husband—was our behind-the-scenes hero, tackling logistics, troubleshooting every bump in the road, and ensuring our timeline never wavered. Their teamwork made everything feel effortless. And Simran deserves a special shout-out: her flawless organization, and rapid responses kept us calm and confident throughout the weekend. We couldn’t have asked for a more talented, professional, and delightful trio to bring our vision to life!

Against all odds, they made the whole process feel stress-free. Finally, I also want to give a special thanks to Simran for keeping us fed, happy and focused on actually enjoying our event. We’re so grateful to this amazing team for turning our vision into reality!

It wasn’t just the planning leading up to the event that was superb; on the day of, they were on top of things. I was truly never aware of any hiccups or mishaps; they would simply fix issues before they became problems.
If you want a team who dots every 'i' and crosses every 't', if you want a team who will keep you accountable for all the tasks that need to be done, and if you want a team who genuinely cares about you and your family’s experience every step of the way, hire Cheryl, Rohit, and Simran.

We hired Cheryl for our Gujarati wedding in Austin in April 2025, and cannot recommend her highly enough. For about one year leading up to the wedding, we would have nearly weekly...
meetings with Cheryl, during which she asked us about our vision for each event and connected us with vendors that matched our price range and needs. She kept us on track during each meeting, and then even met us in person in Austin a few times as well as in Houston a few times for food tasting. Her ability to serve as an intermediary between all of the different parties involved in the planning of an Indian wedding — the vendors, parents, couple, venue staff, Priest, among others - is an amazing skill. Her other team members - Juhi and Simran - were also amazing and incredibly helpful. The execution of the events went extremely smoothly, thanks to Cheryl’s presence. Many of our guests were shocked at how on time every event was (especially for an Indian wedding!) and that was entirely due to Cheryl’s meticulous planning and execution the day of!

es. Cheryl’s Glitzzy Events came recommended to me by my wedding venue - Camp Lucy, and I still feel so fortunate for that connection. From the moment we started planning, Cheryl brought a calm confidence that immediately put me at ease. While she’s no stranger to Indian fusion weddings, this was her first time planning a Zoroastrian ceremony, and you would never know it. She took the time to understand every detail, asked thoughtful questions, and approached the traditions with the kind of care and respect that meant so much to me and my family.
What really set Cheryl apart was how deeply invested she was, not just in the logistics, but in protecting me and my experience as a bride. She advocated for me, shielded me from stress, and made sure everything ran smoothly behind the scenes so I could truly be present. Some of the moments where she challenged me to think bigger were some of the ideas I’m most proud of from this wedding weekend. She seamlessly brought together everything I had imagined—from the quirky spirit of Austin, Texas and the richness of Persian and Indian traditions to the tropical energy of our welcome party and a hint of Italian romance—into one unforgettable wedding weekend!
On my wedding day, in the midst of all she had on her plate, she still had time to give me heartfelt advice before I walked down the aisle which made it like I had a family member by my side, not just a planner. I always knew my wedding night would end with me saying “I love you” to my husband, but I never thought I’d conclude the night saying the same line to my wedding planner. Cheryl is truly a gift to the world and I am fortunate to have had this experience with her and Glitzzy Events.

There are not enough words to describe how key Cheryl and the entire Glitzzy Team was to making our big day smooth, flawless, and extremely meaningful and personal.
From Day 1 of p...
lanning, Cheryl went above and beyond for us in almost every way. She was organized, efficient, honest, straightforward, had a artsy eye with a similar taste in decor as me and my vision, and had all the connections with immense experience in the San Antonio wedding industry to start planning the perfect day for us. Cheryl and the rest of her team are minted professionals, who were able to anticipate not only my husband and I’s every need along the way, but also our family’s. Cheryl got on the phone countless times with my father to discuss budgeting, costs, various open bar packages with our venues, etc. – these were long conversations that went beyond our planning meetings. She worked closely with my MIL (also separately from our planning meetings) to plan our welcome party the night prior to the big day. She knew exactly how to ensure we chose vendors who would be the right fit for us and frequently vetted vendors we were looking for within our budget, frequently connecting with them over the phone multiple times to get us the right deals and packages, and then to plan and coordinate with them. Every crisis along the way also handled was such poise, professionalism, and urgency by Cheryl and her team. When our hotel block portal online wasn’t working for any guests, Cheryl jumped in. When we were struggling to pick a bar package, Cheryl allowed us to talk it out over and over again in every which way with her to brainstorm together. 3 days before the wedding, when I received an unexpected call from our decorating team requesting things that were new to me, had not been discussed previously, and were not part of our budget (as I was actively on the way to a photoshoot with my husband and had wedding festivity events about to already begin), Cheryl literally told me ‘don’t worry about any of it, go enjoy your photoshoot, I’ll take care of this’ and she absolutely 100% did. I was able to enjoy quality time and special moments with my family that day and that week leading up to the big day, those who had flown from all over just for our wedding weekend, which I otherwise wouldn’t have had. The best part of working with Cheryl and her team is that this won’t just be ‘another event’ for her. She and her team care so deeply about the work they do and have such passion to make quality events happen. Planning our event was obviously a personal journey for us and our families, but it felt from the start that it was also really personal for Cheryl and Rohit as well.
Finally, the day of felt like a dream for me, my husband, and both our parents. Each puzzle piece, each event, was so smooth, so flawless, I almost literally couldn’t believe it. I was just speechless and floored every time I walked into an event to see how amazing everything looked and how smoothly things were running. And the best, most important part of all of this, was that my husband and I were truly able to enjoy our wedding day and really maximize the time we spent with our loved ones. Without Cheryl and her team, that would not have been possible, and we are eternally grateful for this.
If you are on the fence trying to decide on an event planner, Glitzzy will absolutely NOT disappoint – they are the SINGLE MUST HAVE vendor for your big day and for the planning along the way.

e success.
She and her team are a delight to work with. She brought incredible expertise along with a very calm demeanor that was reflected across her entire team. Her knowledge of the intricacies of Indian weddings, her keen and creative eye for decor, relationships with vendors, combined with flawless planning and execution were invaluable to us. Most importantly, she listens. She heard our daughter's vision for her wedding and converted that vision into a beautiful wedding while managing to the budget. While planning, she was practical on what would work, what was a must-do, and areas where we could cut down.
During the functions, she and her team worked tirelessly behind the scenes ensuring all events went smoothly. She came up with last minute solutions and took care of them with her signature calm smile. For example, creatively getting the hanging floral arrangements tied down when there was a gusty wind blowing during the ceremony, finding a quick solution for the havan (that would not stay lit due to the unprecedented wind), removing makeup stains from the father of the bride’s clothes, fixing the bride's jewelry that broke as she was getting dressed.
Most importantly, we felt Cheryl and her team were personally vested in making the wedding a success every step of the way.

ade!” Cheryl has a deep understanding of how a traditional Gujarati wedding should run, so our wedding felt like it went off without a hitch! She has great vendor recommendations and has a good understanding of the Central Texas wedding landscape. We loved everyone she connected us with. She was mindful of our budget and never pushed us to spend more than we were comfortable with. We don’t live in Texas, so she was our boots on the ground and always made herself available to us when we would visit Texas for planning. The best thing about Cheryl and her husband Rohit is that they ultimately felt like family to us. We and our parents felt that Cheryl and Rohit actually cared about us and we weren’t just another “client”. Our moms trusted Cheryl and listened to her, which was huge for us when trying to negotiate location, guest list size, vendors etc with our parents. Cheryl was the best teammate and friend while planning our wedding and we were very thankful to have her!

My husband and I, along with our families, honestly can’t thank Cheryl enough for everything she did to make our wedding week a success! She took everything we dreamed of straight ...
out of our minds and nailed it better than we could imagine. Her meticulous attention to detail and dedication to ensuring our happiness were evident throughout the entire process. From curating the perfect vendors to handling every last detail, she made sure everything ran smoothly and stress-free.
Cheryl, Rohit, Simran and their team went above and beyond to keep us relaxed throughout the events. Cheryl even stepped in to help with last-minute outfit adjustments and ensuring we had a plate of food and drink in hand to enjoy during each of the festivities.
Their whole team was accommodating as well with our catering staff, who had never done an event of this caliber, walking them through the expectations and planning down to the minute. The organization of the food was a huge hit and people were shocked to hear it was their first time because of how smoothly Cheryl and Rohit handled the program.
Cheryl was super quick to respond to last minute changes and freak outs, as brides often have, with such care. The morning of my mehndi she was able to attend to a freak out of mine and get in touch with vendors for confirmations early in the morning without hesitation.
Throughout our regularly scheduled meetings, she also had some amazing ideas in all areas, from decor down to the snacks and drinks we chose, which enhanced our jungle-themed Sangeet and Italian-themed Haldi. Thanks to her quick thinking, she added a backdrop to our Haldi set up the month of the wedding that totally sold the vibe and made for some incredible photos.
Our wedding guests were equally impressed by her professionalism and organization. Every vendor Cheryl recommended was exceptional, and we're so grateful for her guidance in finding the perfect team to celebrate with us. She was so good that we are now the consultants for our friends’ upcoming weddings using tips she gave us. We're eternally grateful for Cheryl and her team's hard work and dedication!!

O happy we chose to work with her.
From the beginning 14 months before the wedding, we had zoom meetings nearly every 2 weeks and Cheryl was organized and always on top of the details, keeping us on schedule. There are literally a MILLION tasks and vendors that we would have honestly had no idea to even think about, but Cheryl was there to help guide us, give ideas to help stay in our budget, and show examples of concepts from her extensive repertoire of weddings. As we got closer to the wedding, we had weekly meetings, and she was so flexible working around my parents, my and my husbands busy work schedules. Cheryl and her husband made several trips to San Antonio to help with food tastings, venue walk throughs and provided crucial insight in literally every step of the process. During the week of the wedding she and her team were truly irreplaceable. I had so many family members and guests personally tell me how great a job she had done and even ask for her contact to help with planning their own events! She took care of every little stressor and unforeseen situation, and truly none of us had to lift a finger during the wedding events because she was on top of every detail- I couldn’t have dreamed of a better weekend and it’s truly all thanks to Cheryl and her team.

No review would ever fully describe how amazing Cheryl and the Glitzzy Events team were to work with. Cheryl came to be a close friend, confidante and partner throughout the severa...
l months of wedding planning. Her expertise and experience was evident from the moment we met her and it gave us a sense of calm that she carried throughout the entire process. We knew we’d be in good hands almost immediately.
Cheryl’s reputation certainly precedes her. We were met with immediate positive reactions when we mentioned that we would likely be working with Glitzzy Events to potential wedding venues during our initial search. Many of the venues and vendors in the area know her well and it immediately put them at ease when we mentioned this.
“Oh Cheryl? Perfect, we have nothing to worry about.” - Wedding Venue Owner
Cheryl was extremely adept at understanding the vision we wanted for our wedding and knew exactly how to navigate the different, often challenging, dynamics from our parents, the wedding venues and other vendors. A critical quality you must find in a wedding planner is one that will advocate for what you want for your wedding while figuring out how to make everyone happy with the outcome. Another critical quality is that they must be accessible. Cheryl was extremely responsive throughout our entire engagement, even when both of us were traveling abroad. She set up weekly meetings (that we now miss so much) to stay on top of everything and always came prepared and gently encouraged us to make decisions.
Our first meeting with Cheryl occurred when she was traveling in Mumbai. She was kind to prioritize and make herself available across timezones to meet with us. When we mentioned our wedding dream of having a 4-day event with different locations for each day, she was probably the only person that said “Let’s do it!”. That’s when we knew we needed Cheryl to plan our wedding. She understood what it would take and we left the conversation ready to move forward.
During the wedding week, the execution by the Glitzzy Team was absolutely seamless. Cheryl, Rohit, Melissa and Simran were ready to take on each day and ensure there were no issues. We did not have to worry about anything other than showing up and enjoying our wedding. Cheryl and team took care of everything, and we know there was so much work behind the scenes that they managed. From coordinating shuttles for our guests, to ensuring venues were set up correctly, to addressing last minute requests from family, the team was extremely professional and made things happen.
We are forever grateful for Cheryl and the Glitzzy Event team. We would not have had our dream wedding without them. Thank you Cheryl, Rohit, Melissa and Simran!!

Cheryl knows everyone in the Texas wedding industry and is the go-to person for planning a big multi-day Indian wedding. She is a calming presence, helping to take all the stress away from the couple and their parents. It speaks tons that we did not have to do anything but show up on the wedding day, letting Glittzy Events handle all the coordination and logistics the week leading up. You absolutely need to go with Glitzzy for your event planning!

We are so thankful to Cheryl and her team at Glitzzy Events for making our wedding weekend the best weekend of our lives! If you are considering Cheryl, know that you will get the ...
most experienced, professional, fun, and hardworking planner to make the wedding planning process smooth and day-of execution flawless. We were clueless about planning a large Indian Muslim wedding and Cheryl worked with us from the very beginning to fill in the gaps. We had regular meetings and Cheryl was fully invested as if it were her own family's wedding! It made the process so enjoyable, and the whole family looked forward to wedding planning calls! The planning process was no small feat but Cheryl has an excellent process to help any couple. And she really shined through on the day of the events. Before we booked Cheryl, she told us her goal was that on the day of the wedding, both us and our parents/families/wedding parties should be fully present, be able to fully enjoy the events, and not worry at all about any planning or logistics. And she delivered! We are forever grateful for their love and effort, as we know there was no way our wedding would have gone so smoothly and been as enjoyable without them.
A few ways in which Cheryl really stood out:
1. Cheryl was like our guardian angel. When our plan for groomsmen kurtas didn't work out, she stepped up in a completely unexpected way to make sure we were able to get excellent quality, matching outfits that fit on time. This was not in her scope as a planner and shows how fully invested she is in taking care of her clients!
2. Cheryl is excellent at making a timeline and keeping things moving according to schedule which took so much pressure off of us. For example, she saved the day on our Mehendi night when one of our vendors forgot a key part of our program, but no one ever would have known because she managed everything behind the scenes! Thank you Cheryl for being so on top of it!
3. We could lean on Cheryl due to her immense experience and great judgment. There were many moments when indecision and anxiety set in, but Cheryl was always reassuring and always had a plan which we are so appreciative of.

Working with Cheryl and her team to plan our Indian wedding weekend was the single best decision we made during the planning process! Glitzzy Events came highly recommended when we...
were researching wedding planners for an Indian/fusion wedding in Austin and it's clear why: Cheryl is extremely experienced and knowledgeable on all things wedding related in Austin, the relationships she has made with local vendors is invaluable, and she has successfully navigated this industry pre- and post-pandemic. She is a pillar of support, gave us realistic expectations throughout the process, is so creative (the bangle cart she made was perfect) and very fun to work with - she truly was our wedding fairy godmother!
The planning process was pretty organized, we met for regular zoom meetings, Cheryl had an overall timeline on when to complete certain tasks (when to book venues/vendors, send the save the dates out etc.) and helped us with vendor contracts. She and her husband, Rohit, came with us to visit venues, answered all of our questions and put us at ease.
The Glitzzy Events team was incredible during the wedding weekend itself. They took care of all logistics so we could enjoy the events, spend time with our family/friends and actually EAT during the reception (which is unheard of!). They navigated a huge curveball that the weather brought us like pros (because they are pros) -- the wedding and reception went very smoothly despite the unexpected cold front with rain. We are truly grateful that they handled everything so that we, and our family, could enjoy all of our events without being stressed out!

Glitzzy events LLC, is definitely not an unknown name when it comes to planning a wedding, a party of any kind or an event in central Texas. I must say this, and I feel immense hap...
piness in saying this, that Glitzzy team exceeds their reputation and everyone’s expectation in planning, execution, and making any event go as smooth as freshly whipped cream. Cheryl, Rohit and Melissa paid diligent attention to every detail and went above and beyond to make our wedding beautiful and memorable. It is certainly possible to find many great event planners, but seldom we find people who, In addition to doing it passionately, bestow their warm and calming vibe to everything. Glitzzy team behaved with us just a like a family, while meticulously carrying out their professional duties throughout the event. In a particular incident, during the wedding events some of our stuff was forgotten in an Uber ride. I tried to contact the driver and Uber countless number of times over the next 2 days without any success. Cheryl went above and beyond to pull her contacts and resources, and miraculously located the driver and got our stuff back. That was a huge and pleasant surprise for us to receive our valuable items back. I would recommend Glitzzy events LLC to anyone and everyone, even in my sleep, without sparing a single strain of thought.

lanning a wedding. Her openness and understanding of a variety of traditions helped us feel at ease when blending our cultures across events. It was great to be able to connect with Cheryl consistently during the months leading up to our celebrations. Her vendor list was invaluable as well and everyone who's worked with her had extremely positive things to say.
But more than anything, Cheryl and Rohit's execution skills on the day of were beyond anything we could have hoped for. Their foresight and flexibility allowed them to quickly adapt to anything and everything that came up on the actual wedding days. They were putting out fires without anyone knowing a thing, allowing us to have the most seamless beautiful celebrations. We're extremely grateful that all the up front planning and their skillset allowed us to be free to stay present on our special days. Thank you Cheryl and Rohit!

We just got married in Austin and can’t recommend Glitzzy events highly enough! Since my husband and I live in California, we were so happy Cheryl had shortlisted a fantastic set o...
f Austin vendors that she had personally worked with and trusted — this saved us so much time, research, and gave us priceless reassurance. Moreover, Cheryl helped with our venue selection process by giving us a list that met our needs, helping us compare/contrast different venues, and even visiting them in person for us. Cheryl’s advice was so helpful for us, given her many years of experience in the wedding industry. Glitzzy Events was truly invaluable on the day-of: we pivoted our wedding indoors because of inclement weather, and although we hadn’t discussed the indoor plan very thoroughly, Cheryl and her team nailed the execution. They fully took charge and made both our ceremony and reception go so smoothly; all we had to do was sit back and enjoy! We are so grateful for Cheryl and her team. If you have the opportunity to book with Glitzzy events for your wedding, do it— it will be one of your best decisions!

nce as low stress as it could’ve been for us, but a wild success. My husband and I had incredibly unpredictable work and school schedules and Cheryl was available to meet regularly at hours that worked for us (and was flexible if meetings needed to be rescheduled). Cheryl shined on the day of the wedding with all of the vendors working together in sync, all steps of the ceremony and reception happening on time and with all people in the know, and all questions and concerns from guests handled in real time by Cheryl and her team. Our wedding was the best day of our lives to date and Cheryl’s planning and execution were vital to that being the case. If you are looking for a warm, professional, and honest wedding planner who will execute your vision to the very last detail (and if you’re looking to meet some cool people!) then go with Glitzzy Events!

It's hard to put our wedding experience with Cheryl and Rohit into one paragraph, but it really was the best decision we ever made. We started our planning with the date about 6 mo...
nths out, but Cheryl was on it from Day 1. She was able to help us book vendors last minute and coordinated with everyone to make sure everything was done on the big day. She met with us once a week to answer all of our questions and was available for any other issues that arose.
I think we really saw her abilities about one month before the wedding when we started having some issues with the venue, but she quickly stepped in and made sure the day was seamless. I have heard numerous stories from people on how stressful the month prior to wedding day is and Cheryl definitely helped alleviate a lot of that. We truly didn't see Cheryl and Rohit as just a "vendor" because it felt like they really wanted the wedding to succeed as much as a family would. There are so many small details you think of as trivial but can be so vital to the actual wedding day. Cheryl and Rohit did so much work behind the scenes that we aren't even fully aware of but it shows on the execution of the actual day.
Cheryl is hard to book as she has created a niche within the desi wedding community so if you are lucky enough to book her then rest assured that you will have a wonderful experience.

I could not have imagined a better wedding planner for us than Cheryl from Glitzzy Events. She is absolutely the BEST. Through the whole process, she was so patient, flexible, and ...
dedicated so much of her time and effort in setting up a timeline and meeting with us regularly. I needed someone who could help me make all decisions, big and small and Cheryl was the perfect guide due to how confident yet calm she is. Cheryl is good at establishing relationships because of how personable she is and you can feel how much she cares for the outcomes of the events, as well as the experiences of the guests, couple, vendors, and staff. Even though it definitely was not expected of her due to how busy she must have been, she added personal touches to many things such as little decor, having signs ready and set up at events, ensuring we were fed, and other numerous things that could have easily been missed by us during the actual weekend. We enjoyed meeting her husband Rohit and the rest of the team, who were all so pleasant and helpful. I would highly recommend Cheryl!

y quick, they take the time to understand your wants, desires, needs, they are never pushy, have excellent vendor recommendations (for people like us who had no idea where to start, that was amazing!), and most importantly, they make it so that you have no stress the day of your wedding! I was very worried looking for a planner as a Queer Indian/White couple who would understand us as a couple and be able to help us make our dreams come true. We couldn't have asked for a a more compassionate, knowledgeable, and kind team!

Cheryl is a must-have for any wedding in Austin! She balances detail-orientation with creativity and just gets the job done. She LISTENS to the couple and the parents (if they are ...
involved) and incorporates that into thoughtful suggestions and fresh ideas on decor, vendors, logistics, food selections, etc. We trusted Cheryl and Rohit to handle all the worrisome details so we could relax and enjoy the special moments. I highly recommend Glitzzy to anyone who's planning a wedding in Austin.

hat every aspect of the wedding weekend would go off without a hitch. She was in contact with all the vendors to make sure that they would be there on time. She and her husband, Rohit, and their staff were at the venue hours before us and made sure that everything was set up as we had planned, and during the events, she made sure that the timeline was being adhered to. Cheryl was an instrumental component to the success of my son’s wedding in Austin in Oct. 2022. My husband still refers to that weekend, and the perfection of everything going off without a hitch, as the “best weekend of my life”.

Cheryl also did the Haldi decor and it was absolutely magical. It was supposed to be outdoors but got moved inside due to bad weather. She made the necessary changes so everything flowed smooth and also looked so magical. When our priest gave us trouble in the last week before wedding she helped us find someone right away . Rohit did the coordination for catering support and he is like a big brother who handles everything so cheerfully. Overall thanks to Rohit and Cheryl my daughter had a memorable wedding.

ly is from California and always would say that when it was time for me to get married that I should get married in Austin as well since Cheryl and her team made the whole process so seamless. Fast forward a couple years and my husband and I were living in New York and starting to plan our wedding during the height of the pandemic and did not know if were going to be able to have the big Indian wedding I had dreamed of due to all the uncertainties. My husbands family is from New Jersey and mine in California and we decided to pick something in the middle and Austin TX was the obvious choice. Cheryl helped us navigate picking vendors and our venue while we were living in NYC and had virtual meetings with us weekly to keep us on track and bring all my visions to life. She made time to come to all our vendor meetings, walk throughs, and tastings when we made trips to Austin. We had the most magical wedding week we could have ever imagined- everything was flawless, timely, and went without a hitch thanks to Cheryl and her team. We are grateful for everything she did for us, thank you! -Sangeetha & Shomik

When my parents told me and my California fiance that we had to have a wedding in Austin, TX (where they live), we knew right away that Cheryl would be the one to help us. It was t...
he first wedding in my family, so we had no idea what we were doing. And on top of that, I wanted to do everything different from the traditional Pakistani weddings in the US. That means absolutely no hotel ballroom for any event! I wanted a beautiful garden/outdoorsy wedding with the best Desi food caterer in all of Texas. But what I didn't realize was how much extra work that entails, especially after COVID when the whole world was getting married at the same time. We needed a separate vendor for every single little thing possible - plates, fans, coolers, buffet tables, chairs, tents, etc etc. It was insane how many vendors were required to produce two 270 person events. Cheryl took care of EVERYTHING. She and her team handled every single vendor, and they knew exactly who to call and who to trust. Imagine dealing with all of these vendors during a time when every single one of them was understaffed, overbooked, and facing supply chain issues. Cheryl made sure every single vendor was on the same page. Thanks to her and her team, every single vendor delivered on each promise, and I know that was no easy task that just anyone could do, especially during these conditions. Here's an example - just the weekend before my wedding, two guests had fainted at the same outdoors venue I had booked. I was so worried the same would happen to my guests. Cheryl booked us evaporative coolers within just a couple of days before the wedding. I was really at ease knowing that no matter what conditions God threw at us that day, Cheryl would take care of us.
The only disappointment I had during my wedding was with how tardy my guests were, which obviously was nothing her team could control!
I consider Cheryl to be an angel of mine. Her experience in this space is unparalleled and you cannot go wrong with her. She will make sure every single wedding dream of yours is met!

We are so so glad we went with Cheryl & Rohit from Glitzzy events for our fusion Lutheran/South Indian wedding. Our wedding weekend was absolutely PERFECT thanks to them. Everyone ...
knows wedding planning is super stressful, but they made it so easy and fun! They intentionally took the time to understand us as a couple and our families, so they could anticipate our needs before jumping into planning.
They were calm and collected when interacting with us, even though there was a lot going on behind the scenes of each event. They were extraordinarily detail oriented, and helped us keep track of everything. They have already built a vast network of vendors specifying in South Asian fusion weddings, which was so important since I'm a first generation Indian in the U.S. and don't have immediate family around to help. They were so prompt in communicating with us, especially when it got closer to the date of the wedding, and followed up with every single vendor to coordinate and make sure our day went off perfectly.
During COVID, costs started to sky rocket throughout the wedding industry, and Cheryl and Rohit were transparent with us about this from the beginning. As soon as they found out that costs were increasing, they let us know and helped us revise the budget. When we realized we couldn’t go over budget in certain areas to accommodate areas where we would have to go over budget (like food), they spent time trying to find creative solutions to help us stay within our budget while ensuring that our weekend was beautiful.
Cheryl designed and executed the decor for our Sangeet, and it’s an understatement to say that it was a smash hit! Our guests have been RAVING about her Sangeet decorations for months after the event. During our Sangeet and on our wedding day, Cheryl & Rohit made sure we were fed, happy and stress free, and that everything went smoothly on a set timeline. They are incredible event planners, and have organized and decorated other events for us like my mother’s 55th birthday and our house warming (graha pravesam) ceremony.
We 100% recommend them to anyone that we know, they are the BEST wedding investment that we made! Truly, our wedding would never have happened without them. They are so fun to work with, and are wonderful humans. In these big events, they have been like our family away from home. Love them both!

y vendors - floral arrangements, photographer/videographer, caterers, DJ, special events items, etc. Our son's wedding was originally planned to take place in 2020 but due to COVID constraints the event had to be moved to the latter part of 2021. We had heard from others that moving the wedding back a year would be difficult, with additional 'rescheduling' costs etc. associated with the move. However, Cheryl worked with her partners and vendors to make the change easy for us, and with no additional costs or fees. Cheryl is extremely knowledgeable about all the ins and out of wedding planning. She has great working relationships with vendors and is wonderful at communicating and coordinating with them. We must say that the Glitzzy Events team (Cheryl) really delivered beyond expectations - the coordination and scheduling was seamless and excellent on the day of the event - especially with our complex and multifaceted Indian wedding. She was present with a constant smile and calm demeanor which helped us enjoy the wedding knowing she would handle anything. We highly recommend Glitzzy Events/Cheryl for any event coordination.

edding that was initially planned for Spring 2020 but ultimately happened in Fall 2021. Cheryl was incredibly helpful to our planning process by helping us stay organized with spreadsheets, stay on task, provide vendor recommendations, and beyond that, her connectedness and knowledge of the Indian wedding industry in Austin. She knows the ins and outs extremely well, knows hows to get things done, and is an excellent communicator. Even during our wedding week if a problem came up she knew who to contact to fix it. We were planning our wedding from out of state and as busy resident physicians, so we appreciated that she coordinated meetings during limited times when we could be back home and/or over zoom. She was always available for and patient with our questions and helped us and my parents organize the large details and every small detail to pull off the dream Indian wedding we really wanted including three days of events. Another plus is her business also has decor to choose from, which we used for my mehndi night! She is super sweet and genuinely caring. We also got to know her husband, Rohit, who is also wonderful and owns Sparkle Catering, which we used for our wedding day. She communicated between vendors, facilitated and came with us to meetings throughout the entire process like walkthroughs, tastings, and decor. On the day of the wedding she made sure everything stayed on time and went as planned, and took care of us too like making sure we ate food! We certainly could not have pulled it off without her. Another thing is that Cheryl can withstand any feat when it comes to weddings. About 4 weeks prior to our initial wedding date of April 2020, at the start of the pandemic, we had to do the unthinkable and reschedule our wedding which was a very difficult and painful process, and Cheryl helped us with everything and made it easier by contacting vendors for us. We ultimately rescheduled a second time as well, which again Cheryl helped us with. This extended period of time was challenging but Cheryl helped refresh the planning and keep us on track for what to do on monthly and weekly basis! So, all of this to say - Cheryl is wonderful, kind, knowledgable, will always go the extra mile to help you, feels like she is part of your family, and we couldn't have done it without her. We 100% recommend her for your wedding planning needs!

She perfectly guided us step by step during our 2-year wedding planning process and kept us hopeful and on track. We loved our weekly check-in calls with her (and miss them already)! The day of our wedding was perfectly organized by Cheryl and her team, and our wedding vision was seamlessly brought to life. My husband and I and our families could be present to fully enjoy the events, knowing that everything is being taken care of. It was more magical and special than we had envisioned and we cannot thank Cheryl and her team enough!! :)
We highly recommend Glittzy events’ services to anyone looking for a thorough, experienced, and compassionate wedding or event planner!

oing with Dec 2021. All three of those times, Cheryl was there to help. She was the one who coordinated all the reschedules with grace. It is so hard to contact a million vendors to reschedule, thank god Cheryl was there to to that for us.
She is extremely organized. She know how to run a wedding! We met every other week for 6 months and once a week for a month leading up to the wedding. If there was any conflicts, she was flexible to move it to accommodate our schedule. We would throw her random things that we wanted in our wedding and she always found a way to make it happen.
The actual wedding was perfection. There was no glitch and I did not stress at all. Cheryl instructed all vendors to their correct place and assisted with tear down at the wedding. All me and my family had to do was have a good time.
We are so lucky to have had Cheryl there to share this special event with us. She has done my cousins wedding as well so she is now a fixture in our family. I want to now create more events so that Cheryl can plan them!

On the actual day of the wedding she kept things running smoothly and again made sure every detail was perfect and that our vision had come to life.
But the most important part is that she is invested in all of her couples and really becomes family. We are still missing our weekly calls :)

When we started planning our daughter’s wedding in October 2019, the first person that came to my mind was Cheryl Fernandes! She is one of the most sought after Indian wedding plan...
ners in Austin area. The wedding was scheduled for November 2020. It was going to be a traditional Maharashtrian ceremony and the food for all events had to be completely Vegan. Cheryl was happy and excited to help us with these unique requirements.
The wedding planning was going well as per Cheryl’s guidance and then the pandemic started! It put a screeching halt on the wedding preparations. Everything became so uncertain, so unpredictable. Cheryl continued to support us in all our discussions. She cheered us up when we were all feeling very stressed. Finally, we (bride, groom and parents) took a collective decision to postpone the wedding till November 2021. As soon as we reached the decision, Cheryl immediately told us that she was going to drop off the call as she wanted to start contacting all our vendors to get them rescheduled and draw new contracts with them for the new wedding date! She sprang into action and within the next few days worked things out with our wedding venue and got us all the same vendors for the new rescheduled wedding date. Cheryl suggested us some of the best vendors, including photographer, videographer, hair & makeup, mandap, henna artist, saree draping expert, DJ and caterers!!
There were several challenges due to the limitations caused by the pandemic. Cheryl gracefully and gently navigated us through all the hurdles. Whether it was shopping for all Indian wedding outfits in the US, or online shopping for welcome bags, wedding favors, decorations, jasmine strings, flowers, Cheryl was our guiding light! Our unique requirement of having vegan food at all the wedding events was wonderfully handled by her. She suggested some of the best caterers who made fabulous Maharashtrian, Bombay Chaat, TexMex, Italian food, desserts and gorgeous wedding cakes (bride and groom’s cakes)…..all completely VEGAN!! The multiple food tastings were totally worth it!
The regular scheduled zoom calls with Cheryl helped us all. She kept us on track and things were done in a timely manner. Cheryl was always available for us no matter how small or how big our question was for her. If she did not have an answer for us at that time, she would always do her research and get back to us. Cheryl is absolutely passionate about her work and takes the load off of the parents shoulders. We experienced this throughout the process of two years (in our case due to rescheduling). In the last couple weeks before the wedding, she helped us deal with the last minute challenges caused by the local weather, delayed shipments, last minute surprises, etc. We were completely at ease because we had Cheryl on our team! Her attention to detail is outstanding!
I cannot say enough of the value Glitzzy Events brought to our daughter’s fairytale wedding! It was absolutely a dream wedding that our daughter always wanted, full of beauty, grace and warmth. It was a heartwarming experience to see her dream turn into reality. Cheryl and Rohit are absolute gems, incredible individuals with a very calm, pleasant and cheerful demeanor. They personally took care of us (bride, groom and parents) throughout the entire wedding weekend, just like a sister or brother would do. More than wedding planners, they became part of our family. I would highly recommend Glitzzy Events in a heartbeat!!
