Keisha C. Sent on 31/05/2024A Fairy Tale Experience
If you are planning a destination wedding, Fidan is an absolute wealth of knowledge. We just had our wedding in Punta Cana, Dominican and we have only raving reviews from all who attended. From our first call with her right up to post wedding we were constantly kept up to date, checked in on, and over the moon about the support we received. Planning a wedding is stressful and having Fidan there as a calming soul kept us grounded through it all. Fidan helped us think outside the box of a 'cookie cutter' wedding, and helped create a colourful unique vision that was executed beyond what we imagined it would be. Words cannot describe how utterly grateful we were for her guidance, love and encouragement from start to finish to help create the most beautiful wedding we have ever seen. We never once felt overwhelmed or misunderstood. She was even able to accommodate all of our last minute requests with ease...we are so appreciative! Our wedding was more than we dreamed for and we truly have Fidan and all those she recommended to thank make our day and experience wonderful. It felt like a fairy tale. Thank you thank you thank you! -

Gina A. Sent on 12/02/2024Amazing experience for destination wedding in Mexico
We were referred to Fidan and her team from a close friend who were really happy with their experience. We were planning a destination wedding in Mexico and Milena was our lead planner and we could not be happier with the whole experience. Fidan and Milena were so great to deal with during the planning stages and were constantly on top of everything with the vendors and helped to keep us on track.
For the actual wedding, Milena was there all week with us and provided amazing service. It actually rained during our ceremony and Milena was able to work with the venue to pivot and execute a back up plan and it ended up being perfect! We would highly recommend their services and could not be happier with the entire experience. -

Milena is the best!!
I've got to tell everyone about Milena, our wedding planner in Toronto, because she was absolutely fantastic. Organizing a wedding from California was a challenge, but Milena made it feel like a breeze. My husband is American-Jewish, I'm Persian, and we both wanted our cultures and traditions to shine through on our big day. Milena didn't just make it happen; she nailed it perfectly.
When we hit a scary moment three weeks before the wedding due to a health issue, thinking we might have to cancel, Milena was an absolute rock. Her empathy, understanding, and readiness to support us in any decision were phenomenal. It was a huge relief to know she had our backs, and luckily, we were able to go ahead as planned.
And can we talk about the day of the wedding? Classic move – we left our table numbers back in California. But Milena and her super sweet assistant, Kimia, didn't miss a beat. They found replacements on the fly, which was seriously impressive.
Milena's ability to keep things smooth, especially when there were last-minute hiccups, was just wow. Despite most of our guests flying in from America, she coordinated everything flawlessly. Her calm and collected approach was a constant reassurance.
Kimia deserves a special mention too for her patience and kindness throughout the day. She was always there, ready to help with a smile.
If you're planning a wedding Milena is your go-to planner. She's more than just a planner; she's a cultural connoisseur and a total lifesaver. A gigantic thank you to Milena for making our day not just perfect, but uniquely ours in every way! -

There are too many good things to contain in one review but we’ll try! The whole team at Designed Dream who helped us plan our dream wedding were amazing! Fidan, Kimia, and Milena are the best! From day one we felt like we were part of a family and they were there to support us in every aspect - from design to the day of, we couldn’t have asked for anything better.
Our whole planning experience was so smooth, coming from someone who is very visual and creative, I found that no matter what we suggested they found a way to incorporate it. From the colour scheme to incorporating our cultural traditions everything was perfect.
We received many compliments on how smooth the whole event was from our guests and that’s what we wanted to hear!
Thank you so much to everyone who helped plan the most special day to us! We highly recommend the whole team and can’t thank them enough!
Katrina & Michael ❤️ -

Designed Dream Events exceeded all expectations! We purchased the one-month wedding planning package and it was the greatest decision we could have made for our wedding. There are so many things that you need to do for a wedding, and so many that you may not think of (especially if it’s your first time!), so having an EXCEPTIONALLY ORGANIZED expert to help you along the way—and then be there to execute your day—is soooo key. Prior to our wedding, the DD team worked with us to help us find vendors that matched our vision and ensure that we have all wedding contracts completed. Then, they worked with our vendors to execute the wedding exactly as we had hoped! Truly, while we already felt confident about our day thanks to the DD team’s INCREDIBLE SUPPORT AND PROFESSIONALISM during the planning process, we did not anticipate just how incredible Fidan and Milena would be on the day itself. They MAKE YOU FEEL LIKE CELEBRITIES the whole day—escorting you, guiding you, supporting your family, communicating with headphones and microphones to all the vendors—it was amazing. Our day was nothing short of FLAWLESS, which we know will make for AMAZING LIFELONG MEMORIES. We are thus sooo grateful to them and HIGHLY RECOMMEND them to others! -

Having our wedding planned by Fidan, was the most amazing experience.
She has the right attitude and personality to plan a stressful event and we really appreciated that during the planning process.
The vendors she chose for us, met our expectations and everything went so smoothly on our wedding day. My fiancé and I were completely stress-free and didn’t have to worry about anything on the day of the wedding.
She was always available to answer our questions, and to answer our calls. I am a perfectionist bride, and Fidan’s help was beyond my expectations.
We had a few hiccups here and there as any wedding would, but Fidan was always there to support us. What a big smile and a calm personality.
We highly recommend Fidan for Destination Weddings specially, if you want a hassle free wedding.

Milena and Sharaf of the Designed Dream team were incredible to work with while planning our wedding.
They worked with us the month before the wedding and day-of.
I could not have asked for better planners. They were professional, attentive and most importantly, flexible. Although I added some challenges (i.e. not doing a first look and squeezing in a receiving line), they were honest about the downsides, but ultimately made it work as best they could to ensure our day was exactly as we envisioned it.
I also appreciated that they gave us vendor referrals that met our budget and needs leading up to the day.
The day ran smoothly and we were truly able to enjoy ourselves because we knew everything was in the best of hands.
Thank you Milena and Sharaf!
Nicole & Nick
