I'm so happy we hired AFA for our wedding a few weeks ago! We hired her as our month/day of…read morecoordinator a year out, and she was so helpful. She helped us navigate all the questions of planning a wedding, and was always ready to jump in for us. She was flexible with our rehearsal too, as we weren't able to have it at the venue due to scheduling reasons, but she was happy to have it elsewhere and work with us. She was very communicative and easy to talk to, and quick to answer all the last minute questions and soothe the final anxieties as we got closer to the day (and there were many, as the forecast was looking quite stormy in the final week--thankfully the rain held off!). She kept us as calm as possible. On the actual day, she was worth her weight in gold, helping to manage everything and make sure it ran as smoothly as it could. We had a small issue with our shuttle vendor, which I didn't know about until it was handled and dealt with, all thanks to Amy. She made sure we knew what we needed to, and that we weren't bothered by the details we didn't need to know. I can whole heartedly recommend Amy for anyone planning a wedding!

Where do I begin. I knew from day one that I would have Shamci, owner and creative designer of…read morePlatinum Sofreh, transfer our vision into reality, she is just phenomenal. I contacted Shamci last year, however our wedding date got postponed after a traumatic event. Throughout she followed up to see how I was doing, very caring and genuine like she was my aunt. She kept reinforcing positive energy throughout and reassured us that once our date is finalized I would be in great hands. From the initial consultation to before, during, and after our wedding I was in love. Shamci was so attentive to every detail along the way ensuring everything went smoothly and fun to work with. Shamci and her team tackled everything from our beautiful bridal suite, and planning all aspects of our wedding from A to Z. They provided full service and day of planning, all flower arrangements (bridal, bridesmaids, groom and groomsmen boutonnieres, and parents corsages ), centerpieces, table card, sweetheart table, multiple ceremonies at the different locations, and not to mention pipe and drape which added a romantic touch to our "Sofreh" . Our "Sofreh" was one of the most beautiful features of our wedding, expressive of our personalities, it was absolutely magical. Further, having Mr. Saman at our "Sofreh" with his beautiful speach , explaining the history and traditions behind the traditional Iranian "Sofreh" with its meaning and connecting it to our story was unexpected and touched everyone. My husband and I loved working with Shamci, she was by our side from day one, the early morning hours leading up to our wedding day and early morning hours following our wedding. Shamci and her team were so warm, friendly, and very detail oriented. No two brides are the same either, she made our wedding so unique and a reflection of us. She was just as excited as we were and couldn't wait to witness our Big Day and made it like those only seen in fairy tales. Bottom line: you need Shamci by your side, if you think you can enjoy your wedding and plan it all by yourself.. well think twice. Being surrounded by family in the hotel food and beverage industry, I can vouch how critical it was to have Shamci and her team by our side. Great weddings don't just happen, with her eye for detail she was able to create and combine style and glamour to our special day making our day unforgettable. Everyone loved working with her and she was a joy. We can't wait to work with her again in the future. I highly recommend hiring Platinum Sofreh for ALL your special events which is transparent in her work! Thank you so much Shamci we can't thank you enough and miss you and your energy!

Owned by a South Asian it does cater to a lot of South Asian weddings but also other denominations. Pretty and large open space. However you have to park at the bottom of the Hill and walk up. If its cold or in heels, good luck. There is a small shuttle that will take 4-7 folks up but be careful getting in and out. If its early April and its cold, wear warm clothes like a overcoat. The bar and place for food buffets is outside...great for warm weather but not cold. The outdoor toilets flood so be aware. Nice large tent for guests but in cold weather don't depend on warmth from the heater as the door outside stays open a lot. Seems like a nice place to hold weddings with space but caveats beware.
