A BEAUTIFUL EMOTIONAL JOURNEY!!😊 Swathi and Akshay Shetty — where do i begin about this brother sister duo!!! The moment Swathi entered our home and our lives we knew that the wedding of my daughter would be taken care of completely. She was full of positivity, warmth, very respectful and agreed to work in our budget. Soon after we had a call with Akshay. The voice at the end again so warm, happy, respectful and full of assurance. We knew our wedding plans were in good capable hands when Akshay sent us excel sheet of the entire wedding plan within our budget right from the decorator to accommodation to music to licenses covering even cake for an event, hampers for guests and gajras for the bride!!! They both were with us each step of the way, planning, coordinating and executing everything on time! My numerous anxious text messages and calls were attended to promptly even at 2 am!! During the events all our needs were taken care of, the flow of the event was seamless and it was a thoroughly enjoyable experience for all. Tiniest of details were taken care of. Infact post wedding too Akshay and Swathi were helping us out with lost items etc!! They are genuinely amazing people to work with...Ye kab family ban gaye pata hi nahi chala!! Swathi has excellent creative ideas and Akshay is superb at all logistics and keeps the finance in check. Akshay and Swathi both worked tirelessly to give us our dream wedding. They truly turned it into a beautiful experience. Our guests were amazed and went back very happy. To all the parents and the would be brides and grooms looking for a wedding planner…please please go ahead with OUAT! They are an excellent team to work with, deliver on time, have great vendors, superbly coordinate with all elements and most importantly they will turn your dream vision into reality!! It was an emotional journey dear Swathi and Akshay and you both will always always be a part of the beautiful memories of my daughter's wedding. Stay blessed forever, keep making others dreams into reality and remember our home is always open for you!! Thankyou for everything!!

We wanted to do something different for our wedding, not the typical mainstream hues and structured decor. We wanted our wedding decor to be an extension of our personalities and we found our perfect partner in crime in Swathi and her team. She spent spent countless hours with us on putting our dream mood board together. With fairy lights, modern chandeliers and surreal tree hangings our theme was brought to life wonderfully. She really went out of her way to deliver a superlative experience for us and literally transformed bare green gardens to magical and beautiful ones. We really loved the sophistication and charm our decor had and it could not have been possible without the very strong visual aesthetic sense Swathi brought to the table. We loved every bit of it. And a big thanks

I know it's late. But, I surely want to thank you guys for making my wedding what I always dreamt of. There are very few occasions in life that change our life. Weddings being one of them is not only important but the most difficult event to make it right. You guys did a fabulous job in making my wedding an amazing experience for not only us but every person who was there. It was our first event managed by any event planner and I was really nervous about it. But you did an amazing job from day 1 when I met you. The best about OUAT is that it's not an event for you, it's marriage and you do everything seriously like you are a family member who has been given responsibility to manage. I can write pages and pages in little detail about how you made my wedding an amazing wedding. Advising for pre-wedding and post-wedding issues, understanding the problems and being like a friend throughout those 6 months are things which i didn't expect from any organization. I cannot thank you both enough to be kind and concerned just like an elder brother for their younger brother. I will Surely connect with you always for any Event in my life which needs a planner and also recommend OUAT wedding to others.
