    Wonderful and professional service!

    ODA Events was an exceptional event planner for our special day. Their communication style was excellent - they were incredibly responsive and attentive to every detail from initial planning stage to the end! The quality of their work and value was truly outstanding. When an incident came up, the ODA team handled it professionally and discreetly, ensuring our event went off without a hitch. Oda is simply the best event planner we could have asked for, and we highly recommend her services to any one planning their dream event.

With over 7 years of experience and multiple weddings planned, I specialize in creating personalized, stress-free celebrations. From cultural fusion weddings to intimate elopements and luxury destinations, I handle everything from design to logistics with care and precision. Known for staying calm under pressure and delivering seamless events, I ensure your big day is as joyful and unforgettable as it should be.
Yes, I lead a small, dedicated team of experienced coordinators, assistants, and trusted vendors. While I’ll be your main point of contact throughout the planning process, depending on the size and scope of your event, you may also work with one or two team members on the day-of to ensure everything runs smoothly. We work closely together to make your experience seamless and stress-free.
Absolutely! In addition to weddings, I also plan engagement parties, bridal showers, rehearsal dinners, welcome events, and post-wedding brunches. Whether you need full planning or just help tying up details, I’m happy to create a cohesive experience across all your wedding-related events
I only take on one wedding per day to give each couple my full attention. However, I do make exceptions for multi-part wedding events—such as a cultural celebration, engagement party, or rehearsal dinner—when they're part of the same overall wedding weekend. This ensures continuity and a seamless experience across all events.
