Behind The Veil - Ayesha Hakki - South Asian & Indian Wedding Expert

This week on Behind The Veil - How to Successfully Plan South Asian Events.

It's an area that many planners are not familiar with.   Everything from the customs to the décor can be different.  This week we get tips from a pro!

Ayesha Hakki -

Ayesha Hakki (she/her) is the founder of Events by Ayesha, a event planning company that caters to the luxury market. With 20 years as the founder and publisher of Bibi
bridal magazine, an art director and an event producer, she has put together hundreds of events from social parties, fashion shows, corporate events and of course, beautiful weddings. One of her events was featured on Bravo’s The  Newlyweds, and the Houston Chronicle named her The Wedding Guru in their “Best of the Best” annual roundup. She has been quoted in the New York Times and been featured on ABC’s Nightline. Most recently, the former mayor of New York City sent her a letter of commendation for producing the first ever multicultural bridal show in New York City featuring keynote speaker Preston Bailey and wedding styles from Asian, South Asian, African and Latin cultures. She is viewed as a cultural and style expert and has been featured on the E! Channel, Associated Press, USA Today, The Houston Chronicle and many other media. 

What
sets Ayesha apart as an event planner is her ability to tell stories through her events. She uses her experience as an award-winning art director and journalist to help clients realize their vision and goals by taking their unique story and telling it through every detail of their event. She has won many awards for her work and continues to learn so that she may bring the best for each client. Ayesha has certificates with the Preston Bailey Protege Program: PB Live for Luxury Events and in Contract Law by Harvard University, amongst others. She prides herself on never duplicating the same thing twice because she believes that every story is unique, and considers it her personal responsibility to make each event new and exciting.

When not dreaming about events, Ayesha enjoys traveling and has been to over 45 countries. As an avid cook, instead of souvenirs, she brings back recipes and spices and then hosts themed dinner parties at her home. She enjoys painting and exploring new restaurants, theatre and art shows. Ayesha currently divides her time between New York City and Miami.
