Our experience with Usha and the Laksa team was exceptional! Usha was involved in every aspect of planning right from the beginning. She was always available to answer questions, reach out to vendors, or just discuss ideas. She developed a relationship with us and our families and helped us navigate each portion of the wedding planning process. During the meeting calls she would make sure everyone felt heard and represented every step of the way!

On the wedding day itself Usha and her team went above and beyond. Even with delays on our end, they were able to keep us on a perfect schedule and coordinate all of our vendors seamlessly. She even worked with the family to create surprises for the bride and groom which were genuinely amazing for us to experience! All of the stress leading up to the wedding completely disappeared because we knew the Laksa team had our backs. Would recommend Usha to anyone looking! It is difficult to find someone this thoughtful and invested throughout the process!

Shreya and Mike - A Tamil Multicultural Wedding

Usha didn’t just make the bride’s vision a reality: she worked closely with the bride’s mother, ensuring every detail was thoughtfully coordinated. In fact, she even joined us at the food tasting, offering valuable insight that elevated every aspect of the event, as this was of primary importance to us.

Usha’s attention to detail was exceptional, especially with our multicultural wedding (Tamil and American), where she expertly balanced traditions to create something truly unique and personal. The fact that she took care of all the details ensured that we were able to enjoy our special day without a worry, and our guests were amazed at how beautifully everything came together. We’re incredibly grateful to Usha and Laksa Events for creating memories we’ll cherish forever—highly recommend them to anyone looking for a truly special wedding!  – September 2025

Teja and Sara - A Multicultural Wedding

Living in the West Coast and Teja and Sara’s wedding taking place in East Coast, without the excellent wedding planning skills of Usha, the wedding celebrations would not have been so fabulous and great. The wedding was a multi-cultural wedding (Telugu and American), and she continuously shared her experience with planning weddings involving various cultures. These conversations helped us greatly to plan the Hindu wedding, honoring, and respecting both Hindu and Jewish traditions.

Usha is networked well and procured the best quality vendors. An example is the beautiful butta (basket) for Sara’s entrance. Another example is the great vintage car (the groom’s dream car) for Teja’s Baraat. All the wedding guests were very impressed and enjoyed thoroughly all the various wedding celebrations.

Hindu weddings have a lot of steps and the weddings sometimes become unorganized and take longer. But Teja and Sara’s wedding was so smooth, and all the wedding steps happened as planned. All the guests said this was one of the most well planned and best executed weddings.  – August 2024

On behalf of Jon, myself, and our families, we cannot say enough how lucky we were to have Usha during our wedding planning process. There are endless to-do items associated with any wedding, but Usha’s experience with Indian weddings was instrumental in us staying organized and grounded during all of the craziness.
