Nahid helped us plan our Venetian Masquerade Wedding in 2023 and she was amazing! She paid special attention to every detail and managed all of the vendors with a deft and expert hand - from the circus performers to burlesque dancers, to the string quartet and band, to the furniture and decor vendors, to working with the hotel. She was able to make our rather unorthodox wedding come alive to perfection! We can't thank her enough.
And her team had everything covered and took great care of us through three outfit changes for each of us with coordinating hair, makeup, jewelry, and Venetian masks, and an extra costume change for me to surprise my partner with a performance at our wedding. We never would have been able to pull off such an intricate, unique night for us and all of our guests without her and her team! If you want someone to help you realize your vision for your event and knock the event out of the park, then I recommend that you call Nahid now!
Nahid is amazing! She planned my graduation party and everything was flawless! She had amazing ideas and took my vision and put it to life. Every single one of my guests mentioned how amazing it was and how everything was so beautiful! My day would not have been the same without her! She took all of my stress away and made sure I had the best day ever!!
If you need anyone to do any party you have she is the one to hire! Her and her team were extremely organized and genuinely made this day so stress free for me and my guests. Every one of my guests mentioned how great the ideas were and out of the box they were and they loved them!! I still get people telling me how amazing the party was and how much fun they had and it’s all thanks to Nahid and her team!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Nahid’s global events! From the very first meeting to the final moments of my son’s wedding day, they were nothing short of extraordinary.
Planning such an important day can feel overwhelming, but Nahid and her team took all the stress away. They listened carefully to every detail we wanted and made sure our vision came to life—even better than we could have imagined! The level of professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail was truly remarkable.
Every aspect of the wedding, from the breathtaking décor to the flawless timeline, was handled with care and expertise. The venue looked absolutely magical, and everything ran so smoothly that we were able to fully enjoy the day without a single worry.
What impressed me the most was Nahid’s ability to stay calm and organized, even when last-minute changes came up. She handled everything with such grace and ease, making sure the bride, groom, and our entire family felt supported and cared for.
We received so many compliments from guests about how beautiful and seamless the event was. Nahid and her team truly went above and beyond to make my son’s wedding a day we will cherish forever. If you’re looking for someone who will turn your dreams into reality and make the process enjoyable, look no further!
Thank you, Nahid, for giving us memories that will last a lifetime. You are a true gem, and I would recommend you to anyone without hesitation!
We planned our multiday, multicultural wedding (Indian and Persian) with Nahid over the course of 16 months and it couldn’t have been done without her! Wedding planning is exhausting and stressful and the wedding planner becomes a vital and intimate part of the process especially over a long planning period. It’s extremely important to find someone who cares, advises, listens, is experienced and most importantly is available, and Nahid is just that.
Nahid was excellent, caring and well organized and helped us with every detail from securing our venues till the moment we left the day after our wedding. She communicated with us frequently throughout the process understanding our vision, helping coordinate and advise, and at times keeping us calm! She is well versed in multicultural weddings and is patient with managing the expectations of family members as well. It felt like we had her on speed dial closer to the wedding!
During the wedding planning stages, Nahid provided valuable insight negotiating, securing and reviewing venue contracts. With so many moving parts in our wedding, it was extremely helpful that she would find suitable and reliable vendors for us to pick from. Closer to the wedding, she came for site visits and was not afraid to provide her insight while respecting our vision. During the actual wedding festivities, her team worked incredibly hard to keep everything coordinated and running smoothly so we could enjoy our wedding weekend. She was able to manage any issues that came up with vendors or sites directly and smoothly so we wouldn’t have to worry.
We couldn’t have been happier with the experience we had with Nahid and her team and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a great wedding planner!
What we loved about having Nahid are too many to list but the most important were:
A. She secured the location when our original location fell through.
B. Provided additional value discounts from vendors who worked with her before all of which were people we wanted
C. Was a calming presence with her whole team on the day of and there was no sense of stress or last minute problems
D. Allowed us to pursue our vision even when she disagreed but provided valuable advice based on substantial experience
E. Consistently had name recognition among all vendors which made us more confident that they would not want to fail with a well known planner attached
F. Felt like she genuinely wanted the best for us even when we gave her headaches
Absolutely, we would recommend Nahid Global.
I highly recommend Nahid! She was my planner for my Indian wedding, which included sangeet, wedding, and reception events. We were supposed to get married in June 2020, and she helped us navigate two Covid-related postponements. She was available to chat with us at any time and fought for our vision. She brought us creative ideas and advised us on the best way to approach vendors + timeline while still letting us have our unique vision. During our wedding weekend, Nahid and her team helped all the events run very smoothly and handled any issues without our input. I can't recommend Nahid enough.
Nahid was the planner for my Indian wedding and she was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. I would give her 100 stars if I could! We signed Nahid on for our wedding about 7 months ahead of the event. Unlike most planners you will encounter in your search, Nahid was available for us to contact her whenever we had questions from the time we signed her on. Most contracts you will see only start consultation 1-2 months before the event (depending on the type of contract you get). She was available via phone and email and spent ample time with me at site visits and mock table setups, truly more that what was outlined in her contract. And trust me when I say that those additional months of contact make a big difference. There is nothing worse than signing all the vendor contracts and then have your coordinator/planner come into the picture and you realize you could’ve done better. She also initiated contracts with our vendors that she recommended and it was nice to have her as the main contact person for some of our vendors. She recommended quality and reliable vendors throughout the process. I can truly say that Nahid is professional, experienced, and world class.
My parents and I attended most of the in-person meet ups with Nahid together. I have parents that were very particular in their likes/dislikes and Nahid was respectful of their opinions. I loved how Nahid asked me what details were most important to me. She made note of them and ensured they were carried out the day of the wedding. The entire wedding day stayed on time, she was great at this and all my guests commented on how they’ve never seen a wedding so organized and timely. I wanted the day to start at 9:30am and it started at 9:27am. I wanted dancing to start at 10pm and that’s exactly when it started. My guests were shocked and really enjoyed that for once, things happened on time at an Indian wedding. There are few planners who will keep you updated on the timeline during the event and Nahid did just that.
I feel like I put so much pressure on Nahid during this event. We had a parting gift that we wanted to be given to most of our guests and she carried it out. I also had disputes with the catering manager at our venue and she ensured that the communication continued to move even if I didn’t want to be the one to directly communicate with him. On the day of the wedding, she ensured my husband and I ate and were resting in the break. The dance floor/DJ closed at midnight and she was there beyond 1am getting all of our supplies back to us in an organized fashion. She does her best to not bother the bride/groom unless necessary. Honestly, Nahid treated my wedding as if it was her own daughter’s wedding and I have great respect for everything she did to make my day special. You will never go wrong choosing Nahid as your wedding planner. She will voice your concerns with vendors and ensure that everything is carried out accordingly.
Nahid helped coordinate our Hindu-American wedding at Wilson Creek Winery. Nahid is very detail oriented and will fight for your vision. She made multiple trips out to the winery to meet our vendors for walk throughs, she recommended great vendors, and she handled everything day of.
Nahid is very knowledgable about Indian weddings and was able to guide us through the process and prepare us. She is so thorough with the details that we were able to relax our wedding day.
The day of the wedding she handled all of the vendors, the venue and guests.
We would highly recommend Nahid.
I will start and end this review with the same comment..."I HIGHLY RECOMMEND NAHID AND THE TEAM AND NAHID GLOBAL!" My now wife and I hired Nahid as our coordinator for our fusion wedding that incorporated both the Hindu and Christian wedding ceremonies. And I will gladly and loudly admit that it was a perfect event due to Nahid’s guidance before the event, and her and her team’s assistance on the day of. Below are just a few reasons why I recommend this Nahid Global:
**Communication - Nahid was not only really responsive to emails and phone calls, but she made herself always available to verbally discuss if needed. In our case, we had numerous questions around the fact we were having a fusion wedding, and how to integrate everything. Nahid was always happy to share her suggestions and opinions which we not only appreciated, but helped tremendously to make our wedding perfect.
**Flexibility - As time approached our wedding, there was lots of minor changes to timeline and things related to our vendors. Additionally, as with any large event, there was some hiccups on the day of. However, with the help of Nahid, I did not even know all the things that went on since her and her team handled everything, and somehow made sure everything was just as we wanted. From vendor deliver timelines (to then dealing with delays), to specifics she knew about vendors and their needs (due to her extensive work in the industry), she adapted to the needs of everyone to facilitate a cohesive event.
**Great support staff – Nahid is great, no doubt about it. But I can say that she has a great support as well. Her team was always available on the day of for my wife for anything she needed, to directing guests, to coordinating with the vendor and DJ, to getting my wife and I water and food throughout the day. They had considered everything that we didn’t even know we needed until we needed it. They were exceptional.
**Attention to Detail – The biggest and strongest attribute to Nahid is her attention to detail. She had everything and everyone on the same page, and as we expected. She knew how everything should be set up and to ensure that everyone knew what to do, and most importantly, that my wife and I were not stressed. And we were not. And as a bonus, she assisted us in getting a refund for a vendor that did not provide services up to par.
**Extremely Experienced – Nahid’s experience is extensive. Only after hiring her did I learn of how well known she is in the industry. In our wedding alone, she had known and worked with our officiant, DJ, Florist, and Event Design company. This not only helped with facilitating everything, but she knew how all the vendors worked or their preferences. Also, she was able to give us invaluable suggestions and advice. And most importantly of all, we really didn’t stress at all during the day. She had us reassured prior to the wedding that she had it all under control, and she sure did. The event went off perfectly.
I can go on and on, but I think I have made my point. I highly recommend Nahid Global for any future event planning.
If you are looking for a knowledgeable and experienced wedding planner, choose her! She patiently guided us through the process and we planned for more than a year! She helped us a lot for choosing great venues ! Definitely, her skills helped me a lot to experience the most magical night of my life :)
I highly recommend her for weddings .
I couldn't be any happier that Nahid was my wedding planner. My wedding was beyond my expectations and how I imagined it to be. Throughout the wedding planning, she's was available at all time through phone calls, and in person whenever necessary. She was extremely organized, helpful, and recommended the best vendors that made my wedding day the way I wanted it to be. I always wanted my wedding pictures to be taken with city view, and she made my dream come true by arranging our pictures at the helipad. She cared about all the things I wanted, even the smallest details!! She made sure to be there through food tasting, florists appointments, rentals, even phone calls/emails with the DJ, hairstylist, make up artists to make sure everything goes the way I wanted. She was super organized with all the contracts, timing, and wedding day schedule.
When it came to the wedding day, I honestly didn't stress about anything, everything went as planned. Nahid and the team took care of everything, from the smallest detail, to the biggest. She definitely made my wedding perfect
Thank you so much for being a part of our special day. It was truly the best day of our lives and we loved every minute of it! Thank you for continually working with us and helping us create personalized touches, an amazing day, and truly unforgettable memories.
love and kisses to all
Marjan and Arman
Nahid is very creative and original in her work. It’s simply classy and tasteful and more importantly she understands her clients.
Nahid's services were instrumental to the success of our wedding. Living overseas and planning a wedding in San Diego, it was critical for us to hire someone who had the requisite experience, contacts, and professionalism. Nahid listened to our needs and desires and executed a flawless event. She also made sure that all her vendors were up to the task. Plus she is a joy to work with! Highly, highly recommend her and her team.
Nahid’s elegant taste and creative ideas are exceptional! She’s reliable and organizesd event coordinator with such passion and devotion to her work. Thank you Nahid for making my event extra special and unique!
Nahid planned our wedding at the Hyatt La Jolla, she did an amazing job! we loved all of it, from the help with planning the details to the flawless execution the day of our wedding! Nahid has a lot of great connections with great vendors, which help us a lot with planning the wedding day the way we envisioned it to be! We could not have had a better planner.
We live in the Bay Area, and Nahid was the day planner for my daughter’s destination wedding, at the La Valencia Hotel.
From beginning to end, she was there with advice and suggestions for all aspects of the wedding and reception. She coordinated everything with all the vendors, including the minister and the hotel! We brought several items down for the reception, and she set up everything, the ballroom was absolutely gorgeous!
She kept everyone on track, so the entire day flowed smoothly. She even handled a couple of glitches, and none of the guests ever knew the difference.
I can’t emphasize enough how much time and effort Nahid put into this day, giving my daughter and son-in-law, the wedding of their dreams.
We could not have done it without her!!!
Working with Nahid was a flawless experience from start to finish. We started working together about 1 month before my wedding. Whenever we'd meet, she had a checklist of things we needed to go over and was always really organized. She thought about all the details that I hadn't even considered! I felt like she was truly advocating on my behalf when dealing with other vendors I had booked and was able to get them to do things they otherwise wouldn't have. She is extremely well connected in the industry and people love her. She also made great recommendations for other vendors that made our night special. On the day of the wedding, it felt sooo good to trust someone like Nahid to handle business. She came to me with updates and photos and had everything under control. We had a large wedding close to 300 people and I throughly enjoyed my wedding day because of Nahid & her team!
Working with Nahid to plan our wedding remotely from Africa was pleasant. She was very helpful in sourcing vendors and making sure we got the best deals. She did a great job pulling everything together the day of the wedding and making sure all the vendors delivered their best for a seamless and flawless day. She was also very accommodating with our inter-religious and families being involved!
Nahid is a very exceptional planner. Her personal touch and attention details will far exceed your expectation. Although she will shine and be at her best under pressure, you can count on her for being in control. Her staff is always there to help and aware of all the details, step-by-step.
Here relationships with suppliers and hotel staff are superior to any you have seen. She has excellent complementary suppliers from Florists to Equipment Rentals and Wedding Cake Bakers. Her cultural background makes her the exceptional planner she is. She is well versed with most cultural wedding and customs.
At wedding day, you can rest assured that Nahid, her staff, her service providers and her suppliers are on top of all aspects of your wedding and are in control to make sure your wedding day is a very pleasant and memorable day.
Nahid's Global Events helped us plan our dream wedding in November 2016. Nahid and her team are friendly, professional and simply amazing! We were very happy with our wedding planning services and Nahid went above and beyond to make sure our wedding day went off without a hitch! Each moment was carefully thought and planned out! Nahid really takes the time to work with you and your budget and helps to plan a beautiful wedding which will be memorable and classic. Even thought I didn't live in California at the time of planning our wedding, Nahid made it easy to plan things and I could be rest assured she was taking care of what needed to be done. I really enjoyed the planning process with Nahid and she is a lovely person. Our family & friends were all really impressed also. Wishing you all the success Nahid! With love, Kunal & Tina
We hired Nahid to plan our destination wedding in San Diego and she was an angel!
She helped with every aspect of the wedding planning whether or not it was in the contract. Her service and efforts exceeded expectations and were invaluable to both me, my husband and our respective families. She managed both sets of parents needs and always kept what we, the couple, wanted in mind. It wasn't until after the wedding that Nahid told me she was in touch with not only me, but also my parents and my husbands parents weekly. She did all our walk throughs as we couldn't be there in person. She never mentioned hours or time during our 4 day wedding weekend and was literally ALWAYS around. During the wedding, I didn't stress about a single detail and Nahid took EVERYTHING over. From shuffling extra guests around, to coordinating with vendors, to finishing off the last minute details that arise. Her team was amazing and had everything we didn't think of or know we would need. Nahid truly does this because she WANTS you to have the perfect wedding and takes pride in the work she does. From Nahid, we gained more than just a wedding planner but a lifelong friend. Working with Nahid was the best decision we made during our wedding planning and you should ZERO doubts that she will make sure you have a perfect day! Cheers to Nahid! Thanks again for everything you took care of for our wedding weekend. x Simi
Our wedding was a hit - thanks to Nahid and her team. We worked with Nahid for almost six months. She has a wealth of knowledge in the industry, very friendly and easy to work with. Throughout the planning process, Nahid was responsive and honest - if something would not work or was out of our budget, she told us. She helped us negotiate the best rates for all our vendors and juggled both my request, the family's requests, and the guests expectations. During our weekend, Nahid and her team worked tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure our multi-day wedding went smoothly. She went above and beyond helping keep the vendors on schedule and fulfilling my vision. I am Type A (very detail oriented, plan down to the minute, hyper organized) , and Nahid's and her team delivered an A+ performance. If you're looking for industry knowledge, excellent vendor relations, and an overall friendly and helpful attitude, Nahid and her team are the only way to go.
Nahid was a very professional and fantastic event planner. She has been planning several events for me and my family. She is a true joy yo work with. Highly recommend her
We couldn't have done it without Nahid ! She was available at all hours and helped us create our vision. You get her undivided attention from start to finish allowing a stress free and positive environment. I will absolutely recommend her to all my friends and family !
I had an excellent experience with nahid and her team. She planned my 25th anniversary in dubai and it was stunning. I really owe it all to her having such a successful event
Nahid goes above and beyond her title as a wedding planner, she offers truly amazing design ideas and streamlines the process to remove the immense stress of planning multiple events for 1 wedding. She also remembers fine details for each couple so they can enjoy their special occasion. Truly a joy to work with Nahid!
my experience with Nahid Global was beyond expectations. she and her team with above and beyond to implement our ideas and take them to a whole new level with her creative vision and experience. my big day was the fairytale i’ve always dreamt of! the process went super smoothly, i wouldnt have chosen another team to plan my wedding day!
Nahid was my day of wedding planner and I am So glad I hired her!! She did my sister in laws wedding and I had heard many good things about her, but she surpassed my expectations by far! Everything on my wedding day turned out amazing, she coordinated EVERYTHING the day of, and everything went super smooth. I was NEVER approached about anything having to do with the wedding that night, I was just able to have a great night and everything was taken care of for us. I recommend her †o everyone I know with confidence. Thanks Nahid and your team :) It was truly an amazing experience!
I started out researching wedding planners on the internet. I wanted someone who would be able to encompass my husband and I’s cultural backgrounds and upbringings. I am half Persian/half American and grew up in the United Arab Emirates. My husband is Nicaraguan. As soon as I came upon Nahid’s Global Events, I knew Nahid Farhoud was going to be my wedding planner. She understood the importance of honoring ones culture and embracing multiple cultures on ones wedding day.
We set up an interview, my fiancé, my father, mother and I, and met with Nahid. Nahid was able to establish rapport with us, she took the time to get to know us all, our vision, thoughts, desires, dreams and concerns. She won us all over (which is not an easy thing with 4 different personalities at the table).
It was evident Nahid was trustworthy, dependable, creative, embraced our cultures and had a good sense of humor. Nahid made our multi-cultural wedding dreams come true! She is insightful, patient, caring, a good listener, honest and well connected in the wedding industry. Nahid takes the title wedding planner to a whole other level with her skill, attention to detail and professional manner. Our wedding was seamless, she took any worry we had and made it vanish. Nahid and her team you were truly a pleasure to work with. We will never forget all that she did for us.
I do not hesitate to recommend Nahid’s Global Events to all of my family and friends.
Nahid was an absolute godsend for me! She got things done! As any bride can imagine there were so many components that needed to be addressed and taken care of that I was completely overwhelmed. I was grateful for Nahid's experience and advise that she offered. She provided great suggestions to save money without compromising what I wanted for my special day.
She was instrumental in helping me pick out vendors and keeping me within my budget, which my family really appreciated.
The assistants she brought in to help were also great to work with. At the end of the day I really didn't have a thing to worry about which was the entire goal and reason to have Nahid take charge with the planning and execution of it all! I got to truly enjoy my day getting married to my husband!
I can't say enough wonderful things about Nahid and the expertise and the attention to detail she brings to the table! I highly recommend Nahid and her team!
Nahid and her team went way and beyond our expectations . She is very detailed oriented and very efficient . She handled everything regarding all the vendors and made our family enjoy the night without any worries . I would definitely recommend her for my family and friends .
Nahid was exactly what I was looking for in a wedding planner. She is experienced, she knows all of the best vendors in the business, and she's SO GOOD at what she does.
She was kind and thoughtful when I told her about my vision for my destination wedding at the Loews Coronado, and she worked with me in making sure that it was absolutely perfect- and she made sure we stuck to that vision. She recommended vendors, worked on contracts with them, and thought of other creative ideas that we could include in our wedding (like a nitrogen ice cream station at our pool party which ended up being a hit).
She knows so much about Indian weddings (more than either of our families did!) and was able to guide us on things we would even need for the ceremony. At no point did I need to do anything at the wedding- she took over completely and managed her crew and all the vendors. We were all so relaxed during the weekend that we had time to enjoy each and every event (we had 4 big events and not once were we stressed about anything).
Thank you Nahid, you made my dream wedding a reality!
I can't recommend Nahid and her team enough.. Simply the best! So caring and helpful.
I can not express how grateful we are for Nahid and her help. I don't even know where to begin, except for saying, Nahid is a godsend! Choosing her to be our wedding planner was the best decision we made. She was absolutely amazing from beginning to end. Nahid and her team went above and beyond their duty. Our venue messed up several times and Nahid was the one keeping the wedding afloat. She was so much of a professional, she did not tell us of any of these issues to avoid stressing us out. So many thanks goes to Nahid and her team!
Wedding Elegance is amazing! Nahid went above and beyond both professionally and personally, she was able to see my daughters visions and made her dream wedding come true. We are so greatful that we had her knowledge and experience! It's the most important day of your life, so talk to Nahid, she will make sure that it's not only the most important, but that it's your best day ever!
I had been searching for months for a wedding planner that could understand a wedding that consisted of a fusion of eastern and western culture. She drove all the way to Murrieta to meet me for the first time and we hit it off right away. We only had 8 months to plan the wedding in its entirety but Nahid reassured me that we could make my dream wedding materialize. She was there every step of the way, even at my dress fittings to make things went smoothly. She introduced me to the most amazing vendors in San Diego and attended to all the nitty gritty details. The day of our wedding everything went off without a hitch. I was able to truly enjoy my special day and for that I will always be so grateful for her. Thank you Nahid and the Wedding Elegance team!
Absolutely Beautiful cake and super delicious
Our wedding was planned for month of May, and we only had less than few month to plan for everything...and I mean everything. As we got more into it, we realized that we needed to prepare for our especial day so much earlier. However having Nahid Farhoud as our planner reduced a lot of stress and frustrations. Looking back I believe without her help the process of preparation would have been quit overwhelming or even impossible. As a planner, Nahid was organized, calm, flexible and attentive to our needs. Her suggestions on choosing the best venue/venders that would fit our needs were absolutely helpful. Not only wedding elegance walked us through the preparation process step by step, they also played a superb role on our wedding day that brought the whole piece together so smoothly that our families and us could have not imagined. Thank you Nahid for all your hard work. I would absolutely recommend Wedding Elegance to my friends.
