Interviewing Gurbir Rana, Sumita Sikand, Meenu Brar, and Suchita Sikand, Owners of Event Haus
From the proposal to the engagement to your wedding reception, the women of Event Haus have a pulse on what a bride dreams of for her big day. Coming from diverse corporate backgrounds, this four-woman crew has tons of experience, business smarts and know-how to create an unforgettable wedding. Toronto-based Event Haus is a wedding and events planning company that brings expert
planning, creative thinking and customized service to brides looking for a chic yet affordable wedding.
A can-do attitude Gurbir Rana, Sumita Sikand, Meenu Brar and Suchita Sikand, the four co-owners of Event Haus love how the weddings and events they plan really show the passion and creativity they have - something that we experienced first-hand when we met them. A perfection-seeking foursome, these women go above and beyond average expectations. They bring a positive attitude, out-of-the-box thinking and can work with any vision you may have. Always eager to balance creativity and cost, Event Haus keeps your budget on target while delivering an outstanding occasion.
Happy clients Sanaz and Guy organized their wedding with Gurbir and Sumita and rate their service A+. The couple was very impressed with the Event Haus staff's dedication, quick thinking and organizational skills. "Their unique creative taste in everything from colour and fabrics for the bridesmaid dresses to presentation of bombonieres was appreciated by all in attendance. I trusted them so much that I even requested Gurbir’s opinion in choosing my wedding dress."
At Event Haus, they never limit their creativity. Delivering Elite and personalized service, providing Innovative ideas and knowing your most Dynamic needs – these are the core values of Event Haus. You'll get exceptional help from the brainstorming stage to the follow-up phone call after your wedding. Very hands-on, the women never hesitate to stop and reflect on the project in full swing to stay on the right path. You're always top of mind and top of the list.
The beginning: A kitchen merger Growing up together, Sumita and Gurbir planned many events like the high school prom, fundraisers, birthday parties and weddings. Going their separate ways, the two got their university degrees – one in Management and the other in Sciences. Both successful in their corporate careers; the two were discussing one day the need for professional wedding coordinators who are not only creative and organized but who also have the business acumen to keep the bride on budget and organize a perfect wedding. Good things happen at the kitchen table. Chatting together at the dinner table, Sumita and Gurbir brought up the idea of event planning to Meenu and Suchita. Being Management and Marketing graduates themselves, the two girls saw a wonderful opportunity to use their creativity and marketing ideas to create unique weddings with fresh a perspective. That's when Event Haus was created.
Soon it was a reality with the four women merging their talents to create Event Haus. Why the German name? While Meenu, Suchita, and Sumita were visiting Munich, Germany (with pregnant Gurbir resting at home) they came across a beer hall called Hofbrauhaus. Renowned as a major attraction in Munich, the beer hall is a huge meeting place for Germans and tourists. Its hearty food, upbeat music and happy atmosphere draws people from around the world. The ladies polka danced away from the Hofbrauhaus knowing they wanted to capture the spirit and energy of the Hall at events back home. Laughter, music, food and a good time – these would be the elements of Event Haus – with a mix of traditional and modern.
The mission at Event Haus is to transform client’s vision into reality. Through a complimentary initial meeting, your coordinator will ask you to picture your wedding day before anything is discussed. They want to get to know you and what you envision for your special day before putting anything to paper. They understand how intimate and wonderful this time is in your life. They will work with your ideas and budget and add the Event Haus touch to surpass your expectations.
Event Haus understands that all their clients have unique ideas and requirements therefore all the packages and services are customized. After the initial complimentary meeting your coordinator will suggest a package to you that fits your needs and budget. Event Haus told us that their average Day of Coordination starts at $750 and goes up. To give you an idea for their Total Wedding Package, it is usually in the range of 10% of the budget, however in most cases Event Haus works with the couple based on their specific needs and therefore, is charged accordingly for their services.
Event Haus provides a Total Wedding Package where they will assist you with everything from creating and managing the budget to assisting in selecting vendors, creating a floor plan for the ceremony and reception as well as creating a detailed timeline of all the events. They will be there for the rehearsal dinner to go through the itinerary and deal with any last minute changes. On the day of the wedding Event Haus will be there when your day starts and stay until all the details are taken care of and the guests are busy enjoying a great reception!
Consultation is another popular package where these experienced coordinators can answer any of your questions; whether it be related to trends and décor ideas, etiquette or even if you simply want vendor recommendations that have been tried and tested by Event Haus.
The ladies' favorite package is Day of Coordination. Couples can do the planning at their own pace but they can trust that the coordinators of Event Haus will be their eyes and ears on their most important day. Event Haus will ensure that the couple’s vision comes to life and make it one of their most memorable days.
By popular demand from the grooms, Event Haus also offers Honeymoon Planning. Event Haus will take care of every planning need from assisting in selecting hotels, to booking air tickets as well as all the details for your honeymoon - right from when you arrive to your destination to when you are ready to come back home.
No matter which package you select, Event Haus aims to provide a stress free day for the couple, their families and the bridal party. The team redefines customer service by being in constant communication with their couples and being adaptable to any changes that occur. The foursome is always adding value by keeping up with latest trends and providing cost savings ideas to their clients.
Talent for dynamic events To keep on track, the ladies at Event Haus are very serious in getting your feedback after the event – through a colleague who's not directly involved in your wedding – to get honest comments. Event Haus takes the suggestions from its many bridal clients to improve their techniques, skills and overall customer satisfaction. Although quite often there's nothing to improve on. Linda and Linsey are wedding clients of Event Haus. They raved about the results of working with the ladies, "... the music was beautiful, the location was breathtaking, and the ceremony was perfect... all thanks to Event Haus! Because Event Haus was so responsive to our every request and emails, our wedding day was flawless (seriously!). Every service that was recommended by Event Haus – from the photographer, to the florist, to the videographer – was first class. If I could do my wedding day all over again I wouldn't change a thing!"
Your expert planners If you add up the event planning experience of the women of Event Haus, you're looking at twenty-five years of wedding and event planning expertise. All four coordinators share the love for planning weddings and events. They feel privileged to be a part of their couple’s special day. Sumita and Suchita are sisters so it's great for them to be a part of the same dream. Altogether, these talented women create fabulous weddings and happy newlyweds.
"I want to thank you for providing personal, professional and well organized service. You delivered a high calibre of service through the planning stages and especially on the two days of the wedding ceremonies. The Event Haus team was receptive to my every request and response to all contact was immediate by emails, by phone calls and meetings. Your ideas and creativity were evident in working with me to design the brochure explaining a Sikh wedding and this was indeed appreciated by the guests who were not familiar with our traditions. Your contact with my vendors (especially the two venues, wedding and reception) is greatly appreciated and I believe this 'behind the scene' organization on your part made the events as flawless as they were. The capacity to deliver additional resources when required is an excellent feature of your service. I want to thank both Gurbir and Meenu for all the help you both provided during the course of the planning and then the delivery of your services on the days of the events. I highly recommend Event Haus and wish Event Haus all success." - Pardip Bedi
