Sobi Qazi

n, TX. At the time, he was living in Indiana and myself in Dallas, with my family being in Houston. We were constantly all over the map and needed a planner that would work around the schedule of our chaotic lives, deal with our demands and emotions, and still execute our intricate vision. Needless to say, Ms. Qazi delivered. She was exceptionally professional and helped us every step of the way. She introduced us to some of the most unique vendors, and our wedding turned out to be a complete success! Our guests are still talking about how seamless it was and how gorgeous our decor was. Ms. Qazi herself was calm and collected at every event and made sure our timeline was followed to the last minute. She graciously took my ideas into account, but also gave great feedback if some of my thoughts were impractical live. She also always offered great alternative solutions! Examples of her heard work included negotiating back and forth with an array of vendors to make sure I got the exact look for the most reasonable price, attending food tastings and taking diligent notes, regularly following up with catering to perfect our orders, and being hands on at all our events to make sure every detail was cared for. She catered to my more personal requests in that she made sure my husband and I ate at each event, stayed hydrated, all while balancing the needs of our several vendors. She also attended our meeting with our priest to ensure he clearly understood our instructions. As a result of her work, our vision was executed flawlessly and each and every one our goals were met. She event went above and beyond by managing a few of our guests demands so that my husband and I could enjoy the ceremony. Finally, another important thing I feel necessary to convey, is that Ms. Qazi is just so nice as a person. While meeting other planners I often felt this air of righteousness being pushed my way, but Ms. Qazi took the time to speak with me and was always kind and listened to what I had to say. There is no doubt that if I had to do it all over again, Sobi would be my go to planner.

ston while living in Chicago and we really couldn’t have done it without Sobi Qazi and the Lion & Lamb crew. Having to plan from a different city, let alone a different state, can be extremely stressful and I was really looking for someone reliable and very well-organized. I had heard horror stories about some friends’ wedding planners, so I was very thankful to know that I could reach Sobi easily anytime, from the beginning of the process until the very end. Also being out of town, we put a lot of trust in Sobi to find vendors for our wedding. She has great contacts and relationships with the best vendors in Texas, so she was able to help us put together an amazing group that worked with each other seamlessly. Sobi also organized it so that we could really maximize our time with our vendors during our visits to Houston. She even offered to go to meetings on our behalf when we couldn’t be there which was so helpful. As an added bonus, Sobi has a natural sense of style and great design aesthetic that really made her weddings stand out to us when we were first researching planners. I also really appreciated that she was honest and gave us advice on when to save and when to splurge, so that we didn’t unnecessarily waste our money. I think the best thing of all was that we were able to truly relax and enjoy our wedding, and spend time with our guests. Many guests commented on how Sobi, Amy and the L&L crew were all over the wedding venue taking care of everything, and they even brought my groom and me food and drinks. The whole wedding ran smoothly and turned out better than we imagined! Several guests even told us after that it was the best wedding they've been to. I will highly recommend Lion & Lamb Events to any family and friends who will be getting married and want their planning to be as stress-free as possible!

! She executed my vision perfectly from working with the hotel, decor, caterers, photographer, videography, and more. She has excellent working relationships with multiple vendors which allows for better pricing and accountability. I learned quickly that without someone to organize and execute your vision, all the money spent on everything else is wasted. Being Pakistani, it's not that common to have a wedding planner, and I have no idea why! I was big on having an on time, very organized, non hectic wedding. Pretty much unlike any other desi wedding. Sobi made this happen. She kept to the schedule, politely informed guests to take their seats (and stay in them!), and worked with the vendors to make sure things went perfectly. She also speaks Urdu fluently, which helps with the aunties and uncles. My parents and family loved having them! I felt like Amy and Sobi where my eyes and ears while I was on stage, helpless to control things. They always came through, they even made sure we ate and had plenty of diet coke :). I was hesitant to hire a planner at first, but I'm so glad I went with Sobi! You won't be sorry!

ob from start to finish. We had a limited budget and she was able to work within our budget and make our special day that much more special. We were so pleased with her responsiveness (she replies to emails at 11pm!) and her ability to make anything beautiful! Our venue was not the best to work with but she went above and beyond to minimize the disruption to our guests (and there were serious disruptions). I can't thank Sobi enough for the awesome job she did!
