What Customers Say
So I am going to start this review by saying, I wish I met Grace sooner. I will tell everyone about my journey to begin with so there is a bit of background around this review.

So me and my now wife are from the UK and both have Indian/African heritage. We were both convinced that having a destination wedding was the best option for us. we flew to many countries in Europe and looked at so many options before we decided to go back to our roots and have a wedding in Tanzania/Zanzibar. At this point we had never been to Tanzania or Zanzibar we had only seen pictures. now this is where the fun begins. we now have to organise a wedding in a different country and we both do not know anyone there. So the search begins on Facebook, Instagram, Google and everywhere else we could think of. We had contacted so many people to get pricing and tell them about our 5 wedding events which would take place over 3 days and started getting quotes and ideas of costing and what can and cannot be done. We then found out that being from a different country and not being able to speak Swahili was a challenge as soon as people knew that we were not from Tanzania they would charge extortionate prices. luckily, we found a photographer who was helpful in pointing us in Grace's direction. After the first call me and the wife had with Grace, we knew that this was the person we wanted to use. The attributes that Grace has over all of the other wedding planners we spoke to are the following:

1. Creative - Just ask Grace for our wedding photos they speak for themselves.
2. Reasonably Priced -This is a big one as the fee that Grace charged us should be more as from our perspective, she saved us more than 10x her fee through her ingenuity, creativity and network)
3. Trustworthy -The fact that my wife and I, hailing from different countries, had never actually met Grace until a few days prior to our wedding, truly underscores the immense trust we placed in Grace after just a few phone calls. And we were not wrong to do so!
4. Communication -As soon as Grace could she set up a group chat where we would talk almost daily about different ideas. The good ideas come from my wife the great ideas come from Grace.
5. Contacts - Grace's network is vast; whatever you need she can get! where previously we were told this cannot be done or there was an issue by previous people we spoke to. this was just simply not in Grace's vocabulary. it was always let me find a way, and she did without fail!
6. Attention To Detail -The ability to notice and address even the smallest details is essential to create a flawless and memorable event. Grace did this effortlessly the detail was so intricate, beautiful, creative and elegant.
7. Family - I have had to put this here because I do not see Grace as our wedding planner any longer to me and my wife, she is family. She made our dream come true! And she will make yours come true.

If you are contemplating using Grace's services, there is no need to think twice – just do it. She is simply the best!

Grace you deserve it. You are an amazing human and an even better planner. You made our dreams come true with our wedding and we hope your dreams come true also! We love you lots! You really do deserve it after all your hard work.
Grace the wedding planner. Where do I start. You met my sister and agreed tp be our planner. From day one she wanted to scout for venues but I had one set in mind. She is sooo organised and patient. My husband and I are not the most organised. We wanted pretty much everything but wanted simple. We had no idea what we wanted in a nutshell. But Grace she got me from day 1. She went above and beyond. And when our venue issues went left she went on crisis managent. She was a confidant, a friend a sister while i was panicking. Come wedding day the best suprise was the ceremony decor. I had no idea whay she would do but was perfection. The reception was amazing. In chaos she was there as a confidant sister and friend. She is honest. You know where every penny has gone, she is very well priced as matter of fact she deserves more in my opinion. She is attentive, easy to work with and professional. She provided anything and everything we needed although we chose to keep it simple. She handled my family and friends perfectly and gave my husband everything he asked. Grace i love you. You are an angel sent from above. I will forever be grateful to you for making our day so beautiful despite the chaos.
A year ago today. I remember you called and you told me theu had cancelled the venue we wanted. I felt so defeated and laughed but like your name gracious and confident you said dont worry and went to work and sorted us out soooo quickly. With 10 days only. GRACE THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. MAY YOUR BLESSINGS MULTIPLY OVER AND OVER. May pple never argue with your fees because you are worth every penny.
Arusha holds a special place in my heart. It was under the slopes of Mt. Meru where my husband and I first met. So Arusha was not a destination wedding for us. It was home. To make it even more special, we decided to use our home to host the wedding. We envisioned getting married with Mt. Meru as our backdrop, and we wanted to include all the elements that symbolizes our cross-cultural marriage. It was not an easy ask: from a Bjaji Entorage to mimic the traditional Chinese arrival, selecting a beans field as our ceremony venue, marching tarumbeta band, to transforming our backyard into a starlit dance party… every single detail required hands-on design, creativity, and coordination…and Grace made the magic happened! All our guests; friends and family from near and far, tell us that this is the best wedding they have ever been to. It was dreamy. It was funky. It was unique. And for me, it was unforgettable. From the bottom of our hearts, I am grateful the thoughtfulness and hard work Grace and her team put into making this day special for not just us, but all of our guests who came to celebrate with us. So if you’re planning a wedding in Tanzania, and you’re not sure if someone can turn your vision into reality, Grace is the one to hit up. She is truly a BOSSLADY.
Grace our wedding planner was recommended to us and what a joy it was for us. Everything was managed as we wished, we had a dream wedding. We would like to thank Grace for everything because she took care of the whole organisation with a smile, good humour and energy!
