Our perfect day

We are so grateful for U'Swanky Events for helping us pull together the perfect wedding day. We were new to Calgary and we knew we needed help with getting vendors and just putting everything together. Magdalene helped us with this and much more. She was and is a wonderful, organized and pro active business woman. The care and thought she put into working with us was so helpful and we will forever be grateful for her work. Our day was perfect and went without a hitch thanks to U'Swanky Events.

Covid wedding life saver

Having Uswanky events as our wedding planner made the seemingly impossible achievable! She came through for us in so many ways, despite restrictions, constant changes and depressing conditions. Based of the forecast there was going to be rain and snow on the day of out outdoor wedding. We had to change the date 2 days to the wedding. This wedding planner extraordinaire was able to rapidly convert our wedding rehearsal day to the main event. She handled all the vendors, and it was an amazing day for us. We highly recommend her services.

Amazing!!!!!

Aunty Meg like I fondly call her was amazing. Working with her to plan my wedding was just nothing short of a blessing especially during the period of a global pandemic. She was always very professional and timely during meetings. Her attention to detail is such a gift that helped me go to bed reassured that I was in excellent hands. She was also so flexible, consistent, understanding and reassuring with her words.

Being of Nigerian descent, I had to have a 2 day wedding ceremony and as you can imagine, doing that during a pandemic posed a huge challenge. I’m so proud to say both of my wedding ceremonies turned out so beautifully, well planned and organized while adhering to COVID guidelines. She worked relentlessly to bring my vision to life and laid all my worries to rest. She also worked so well with the vendors.

I absolutely had no regrets having her plan my wedding. She’s the absolute best.

Personal and Professional

U'Swanky Events Planned both my traditional and formal wedding. Planning was a pleasure and she was very professional in her interactions with vendors even with the more difficult once.
Both events were planned beautifully and ran very smoothly.
I’m forever grateful!
Thank you.

Highly Recommend

We hired Magdalene to coordinate the day of the wedding. She went above and beyond her tasks. She followed up with us early in the month and a few days before, kept vendors, bridal party, and us informed, on schedule, and stress free. She gave us great tips for improving the function on the wedding day and was hands on throughout. She took initiative to beautifully setup decorations we had left the day before and to remind us of important program details. She really stepped up to the plate to ensure the wedding day went off without a hitch and we are so impressed and thankful!

Stress free and rewarding

This was a surprise wedding anniversary party. It was done so well, I have to credit Magdelene for her meticulous planning.
In my daughter's words:
Ms. Magdalene planned my parents' 25th wedding anniversary party and it was beautiful. She had suggestions for every step along the way and her attention to detail was impressive.  Everything from the games played to the music selection reflected my parents' personalities. During the event, we could sit back and enjoy the party because she made sure all aspects of the event were well taken care of. I am grateful for all the hard work she put into making the party a success!

Excellent Service!

Magdalene Anozie of U’Swanky Events is amazing!! She planned my event which took place on March 2nd, 2019. The service I received was exceptional! She went above and beyond to make my event a success! She is very organized, very detailed and professional. Her knowledge of vendors is priceless as she was able to save me money by recommending great vendors for my event. She provided great ideas for my event and honestly I would never have thought of those ideas myself. The event went without a hitch as she made sure we were right on schedule and I had nothing to worry about. I am super grateful that she planned my event and I highly recommend U’Swanky Events for all your event planning.

Heavenly bliss

“I honestly thought I was very organized and detail oriented enough to plan my wedding- until I met Mrs. Anozie. Not only did she point out the details that I could have missed, she helped me organize my thoughts and planned my wedding to perfection. I was the happiest woman in the world on the first of July, not only because I was marrying the love of my life but because I did not have to worry about anything on that day. Mrs. Anozie took care of everything and made sure that all the preparations were made so that I could relax and just enjoy myself. Not only that, we were able to stick to our budget and even save a few dollars which was extremely wonderful!! I enjoyed a completely stress-free and enjoyable event because wee were wise enough to involve our perfectly dynamic event planner in the planning and execution of our party.” u'swanky was the greatest wedding gift from the powers that be
