About

On WeddingWire since 2026

Last update: July 2026

I founded GEM Event Planning because I believe every couple and family deserves to experience their celebration as guests, not coordinators. My role is to handle every detail behind the scenes so you can focus on the moments that truly matter.

Planning is where I thrive. I'm highly organized, proactive, and detail-oriented, always thinking several steps ahead to prevent issues before they arise. From coordinating vendors and refining timelines to overseeing every logistical detail, I create events that feel seamless from beginning to end.

Before launching GEM, I built my career managing complex projects that required precision, organization, and careful coordination. Today, I bring that same structured approach to weddings and special events. Whether I'm planning an intimate engagement party or a large, multi-day cultural wedding, every decision is made with care, purpose, and attention to detail.

What makes GEM different is the balance of thoughtful planning and personal connection. You'll receive meticulous organization without sacrificing warmth, flexibility, or genuine care. Every event is planned as though it were my own because I understand how meaningful these celebrations are.

When you choose GEM, you're working directly with me throughout the entire planning process. I offer a boutique, one-on-one experience where communication is personal, details are never overlooked, and your vision is always the priority. I am currently completing my certification through the Wedding Planners Institute of Canada (WPIC).

  • Boutique, one-on-one planning with Eman from start to finish
  • Wedding Planners Institute of Canada (WPIC) certification in progress
  • Strong relationships with GTA venues and trusted vendors
  • First-hand understanding of Arab and Muslim weddings and traditions
  • Experience planning cultural celebrations and multi-day events

Eman made our big day truly seamless!

I can't recommend Eman highly enough. From the very start she was incredibly organized, she scheduled calls with us well ahead of time, took the time to truly understand every detail of our logistics, and offered fantastic suggestions along the way that made everything better. She was a genuine pleasure to work with through the entire process.

But here's what really sets her apart: our wedding had its share of problems and things that could have gone sideways, and as the bride and groom, we had no idea any of it was happening. Eman handled every issue independently and so smoothly that we were free to just be present and actually enjoy our big day!

If you want a coordinator who will quietly handle everything behind the scenes so your big night runs seamlessly, and so you can experience it rather than manage it, Eman is the one. She is exceptional at what she does, and we are so grateful we had her.

Great Service

Eman was our day of coordinator. She was well organized and attentive to all the details we asked for. She considered our needs and ensured that our event went smoothly. We had some issues but she didn’t hesitate to get in and do the work to ensure that the job gets done without any of guest being any wiser. Thanks for making our event a success Eman.

Can't recommend enough!

Loved working with Eman and can't wait to do it again. In a planner, I look for someone who will listen to you, try to understand your vision, fight for the things that matter, and when needed brings your vision back down to reality. That's exactly what she did.

I wanted a budget wedding that didn't look like a budget wedding, but I also didn't want to go the convention hall route. We found a large agricultural centre in Grimsby, and what she did to the place with the decor wasn't just transformative, it was perfection. Even the owners of the agricultural centre were astonished.

I was so impressed that I referred her as the day of coordinator for my husband's best friend's wedding, and we rely on her to plan all the big celebration in our family.

She's friendly, patient, meticulous, and firm when she needs to be, especially with rowdy relatives or stubborn vendors. I would highly recommend her.

A true “gem!”

I can't recommend Gem Event Planning enough! From start to finish, the level of professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail was outstanding. Eman has an incredible ability to take your vision, understand exactly what you're looking for, and elevate it into something even more beautiful than you imagined. If you're looking for someone who is organized, creative, and truly passionate about what they do…well, you found her!
