About

Our work is profoundly influenced by the idea that family, togetherness, and the celebration of life’s milestones are fundamental to planning a beautiful celebration. We draw inspiration from vibrant gatherings filled with music, dancing, and exquisite cuisine, infusing these core values into every wedding and event we design.

By accepting a limited number of events each year, we ensure alignment in vision, style, and execution, meticulously crafting each detail with precision and care. Every wedding becomes a custom masterpiece, uniquely reflecting your story while blending culture, elegance, and the beauty of the surroundings into an unforgettable experience.

With a team of innovative and seasoned planners, we specialize in luxurious, bespoke events, including tented weddings, multi-faith ceremonies, fusion weddings, and multi-day celebrations. Based in Toronto, we extend our services to Calgary, Banff, and beyond, bringing your dream wedding to life flawlessly, regardless of the destination.

We hired the Events by Whim team for our May 2026 wedding and could not recommend them more to anyone who is planning their wedding. Alisha matched the vibe that we were looking for from the beginning, bringing a fun, calming and reassuring energy to our wedding planning experience. She offered helpful and valuable recommendations, opinions, and advice throughout the planning process. She was very respectful of our choices and went above and beyond what we could've imagined. When we ran into some challenges on the wedding day, she and Michelle managed it with the venue and the vendors so that we could enjoy the experience. Their kind and light-hearted demeanours, expertise, attention to detail, and organization were exactly what we were hoping for and made our wedding planning experience so much smoother!

Planning a wedding can be overwhelming, but working with Events by Whim felt like having a team I could count on — calm, creative, and completely in control. From our very first meeting, they brought such warmth and flexibility to the process. Every planning session was productive and fun, and they made sure our vision stayed front and center.

What truly set them apart were the small, thoughtful gestures that made the day feel so personal to me and my husband. They didn’t just coordinate—they cared. I only found out about last-minute hiccups after they had already been handled, which speaks volumes about their professionalism and grace under pressure. I never once felt stressed or distracted; I got to be fully present and soak in every moment with my loved ones.

My bridal party couldn’t stop raving about how helpful and attentive the team was throughout the day. Having them on-site to guide the flow and manage logistics was a game-changer. It allowed all of us to relax and truly enjoy the celebration.

If you're planning a wedding and want to actually experience it rather than worry about it—Events by Whim is the team you want by your side. I can’t recommend them enough.

Working with Nirvanie made the wedding planning process an absolute joy.

My husband and I genuinely looked forward to our planning meetings. It was amazing to talk to someone who truly understood our vision and personalities. This was a multicultural wedding, and she captured it perfectly. Nirvanie was warm, approachable, and so easy to work with throughout the entire process.

I'm honestly getting emotional writing this. Believe it or not, planning the wedding was actually fun, and that was entirely because of her.

I always felt comfortable asking for her honest opinion. I leaned on her for advice throughout the process and valued every bit of feedback. Her expertise really shone during vendor meetings. I had bought two wedding planning books in a panic after getting engaged, but I still had no idea what to ask when consulting with vendors. Nirvanie asked all the right questions and considered details I would never have thought of.

She was extremely attentive and detail-oriented. In the weeks leading up to the wedding and on the day itself, she was quietly putting out little fires behind the scenes. Everything flowed so smoothly. The timeline was flawless, the day had an incredible energy and our guests had a great time.

We used Events by Whim for planning, design, and stationery. Every detail was thoughtful and beautifully executed, and all of their recommended vendors were wonderful to work with.

I cannot recommend Events by Whim enough. And if you're looking for someone who brings calm, clarity, and joy to the planning process, you will be in excellent hands with Nirvanie.

Where do I begin!? When my now husband and I started our wedding planning, we seeked advice from many other newly wed couples about getting/using a wedding coordinator. The response was either they did and recommended we do too, or they didn’t but wish they had. We decided to explore and connected with 2 different planners. While we loved what they offered, we were still skeptical with spending the money on this service. Not to mention, my mom didn’t think it would be a good use of money. We continued to do planning ourselves for a few months and later came across Events by Whim and decided to connect with their team. One of the biggest things for us when choosing vendors, was the connection, conversation and vibe we felt with that vendor. We had the pleasure of meeting Alisha from the team, and we instantly felt that connection and vibe we were looking for. Alisha made us feel so comfortable and reassured from the very start. She walked us through everything they offered for month of coordination, which included a virtual walkthrough of the platform used and several guides available for couples. When we left that call, we knew we wanted to get the month of coordination, as we were comfortable with handling the planning up to that point, but wanted someone to take over closer too. Let me tell you, they did not disappoint! Alisha took over a month before our wedding. She was on top of everything and made sure all our vendors were confirmed, helped us finalize our itinerary, raised our attention to things we didn’t think of along the way, and soo much more. Our wedding consisted of 2 days - ceremony and reception. Michelle was our lead day-of coordinator, with Cristin-Marie working alongside for our ceremony and Grecia for our reception. With our 370 plus guest count, these ladies were on their toes all day/night. They made sure everything went according to plan, keeping us informed along the way for any tweaks and changes, or just checking in to make sure we were doing okay. We also received soooo much positive feedback from our friends and family attesting to the wonderful job of these ladies for both days. And remember my mom, who didn’t think we should get a coordinator. Well, her feedback was that the ladies worked super hard and did such a great job. She even recommended to a relative having a wedding later this year, that they get a coordinator as well - what a surprise lol. Overall, these ladies did an AMAZING job and we couldn’t be happier with our decision to choose the Events by Whim team! If you are considering a wedding coordinator, whether full planning or day of coordination, I would highly recommend their team!

Events by Whim saved the day! My now husband and I thought we could plan our wedding ourselves (being the perfectionists we are) and quickly found ourselves drowning. When we found Events by Whim, we felt an instant connection and boy are we glad we did! Alisha was an absolute joy to communicate with and linked us with our fairy godmother, Nirvanie. Nirvanie took away all of our stress and made our dream wedding a reality! We honestly couldn’t have done it without her and all of her amazing connections. She made sure everything was running smoothly on the day of our wedding, allowing us to enjoy every moment together. To the entire Events by Whim team, thank you for everything you do! I would recommend this team to everyone I know! They will not let you down!

One of the best decisions I made for our wedding was booking Events by Whim for Month of Management! We were on the fence about having a planner for our wedding, but we are SO grateful we did. There's so much that goes into preparing for a wedding day that I never expected and Alisha made sure that every detail was planned for - As a Type A person, this made me way less stressed! She really became my right-hand woman, always available for last-minute questions at any hour of the day, and was the person we could trust to handle all hiccups happening behind the scenes.

She also helped with the design of our Florals & Decor which blew us away and brought our dream to life! Our guests were constantly complimenting how beautiful our decor was.

Huge shout-out also to Nirvanie and Cristen-Marie who went above and beyond to make everything on our wedding day go so smoothly - Your 3-way calls made us feel like celebrities, and the way you had Archie nibble our cake was incredible!

Our day was truly perfect and it would not have been the same without the Events by Whim team! Let's do it again ;)

Always a pleasure working with Alisha and her stellar team - They set the bar High!

Mademoiselle Vanilla

Worked with Alisha for a fab photoshoot and weddings this year, and her attention to detail is what makes all the difference in an event--so organized, never misses a thing, and venue looks so posh! She injects a wonderful vibe at the venue and makes it more fun to be there! We LOVE working with this lady boss! x

Bongo & B Entertainment

Have done Several events with Whim and their planning and executing of an event from beginning to end was great! Our Entertainment was well coordinated together and we always have happy Brides & Grooms!

RattleSnake Point Golf Club

We had the pleasure of working with Whim Event Coordination this past weekend. Alisha and her team were professional and organized. They transformed our banquet space into an absolutely stunning classical display of beauty. Tastefully elegant design. We would love the opportunity to collaborate with them again in the future. I highly recommend there work and work ethic.

Alley Entertainment

Amazing to work with, very detailed and organized! Whim Events allows me to focus on the entertainment portion of the evening and not worry about the little details in between - because it's already taken care of! One of my favourite vendors to work alongside.

Maximum Music

We had the pleasure of working with Whim Events this past weekend (July 15th, 2016), and it was a great experience.

Not only did they put together a great event but were also incredibly professional and accommodating, not just with us but more importantly with the couple getting married.

We cannot thank you enough for everything!
