Best in the industry!

I can't express enough how grateful we are to have had Fidan as our wedding planner. From start to finish, she transformed our wedding dreams into a fairy tale come true. Fidan's dedication was evident in every aspect of the planning process—she meticulously handled every detail, found us incredible vendors, and attended every single meeting with us. Her commitment to advocating for our vision was unmatched.
What truly stood out was Fidan's ability to listen and adapt. She understood exactly what we wanted and made sure everything was tailored to our preferences. On the big day, my now husband and I were able to relax and fully enjoy ourselves, knowing that Fidan and her team were expertly managing every logistical detail.
Thanks to their hard work and attention to detail, we had zero stress and an absolutely magical day. Fidan and her team are, without a doubt, the best in the industry. If you're looking for someone to make your wedding day perfect, look no further—Fidan is the one you need. We couldn’t recommend her more highly!

Thank you!

I first heard about Fidan and her team through a dear friend whose wedding they coordinated. When I reached out to Fidan, I was already deep into planning my wedding and sought help specifically for day-of coordination so I could relax and enjoy the moment. Fidan exceeded all my expectations. She truly is like a fairy godmother, intuitively understanding exactly what was needed to make our day magical. Her responsiveness and support were exceptional, and she even went above and beyond by connecting us with a live painter, adding a unique touch and a beautiful keepsake to our celebration.

Hiring Fidan and her team was money well spent and a part of my wedding planning that I would do all over again. Fidan, Milena, and Anna—thank you for your attention to every detail, big and small. Our family and friends have been raving about how smoothly everything went, and we know we couldn’t have achieved this without your care, support, and love. We hope you also had a chance to enjoy yourselves after all your
hard work.

With love,
 Alicia & Diljan

A Fairy Tale Experience

If you are planning a destination wedding, Fidan is an absolute wealth of knowledge. We just had our wedding in Punta Cana, Dominican and we have only raving reviews from all who attended. From our first call with her right up to post wedding we were constantly kept up to date, checked in on, and over the moon about the support we received. Planning a wedding is stressful and having Fidan there as a calming soul kept us grounded through it all. Fidan helped us think outside the box of a 'cookie cutter' wedding, and helped create a colourful unique vision that was executed beyond what we imagined it would be. Words cannot describe how utterly grateful we were for her guidance, love and encouragement from start to finish to help create the most beautiful wedding we have ever seen. We never once felt overwhelmed or misunderstood. She was even able to accommodate all of our last minute requests with ease...we are so appreciative! Our wedding was more than we dreamed for and we truly have Fidan and all those she recommended to thank make our day and experience wonderful. It felt like a fairy tale. Thank you thank you thank you!

Amazing experience for destination wedding in Mexico

We were referred to Fidan and her team from a close friend who were really happy with their experience. We were planning a destination wedding in Mexico and Milena was our lead planner and we could not be happier with the whole experience. Fidan and Milena were so great to deal with during the planning stages and were constantly on top of everything with the vendors and helped to keep us on track.

For the actual wedding, Milena was there all week with us and provided amazing service. It actually rained during our ceremony and Milena was able to work with the venue to pivot and execute a back up plan and it ended up being perfect! We would highly recommend their services and could not be happier with the entire experience.

Most Amazing August wedding!

There are too many good things to contain in one review but we’ll try! The whole team at Designed Dream who helped us plan our dream wedding were amazing! Fidan, Kimia, and Milena are the best! From day one we felt like we were part of a family and they were there to support us in every aspect - from design to the day of, we couldn’t have asked for anything better.

Our whole planning experience was so smooth, coming from someone who is very visual and creative, I found that no matter what we suggested they found a way to incorporate it. From the colour scheme to incorporating our cultural traditions everything was perfect.

We received many compliments on how smooth the whole event was from our guests and that’s what we wanted to hear!

Thank you so much to everyone who helped plan the most special day to us! We highly recommend the whole team and can’t thank them enough!

Katrina & Michael ❤️

Exceptional team

Designed Dream Events exceeded all expectations! We purchased the one-month wedding planning package and it was the greatest decision we could have made for our wedding. There are so many things that you need to do for a wedding, and so many that you may not think of (especially if it’s your first time!), so having an EXCEPTIONALLY ORGANIZED expert to help you along the way—and then be there to execute your day—is soooo key. Prior to our wedding, the DD team worked with us to help us find vendors that matched our vision and ensure that we have all wedding contracts completed. Then, they worked with our vendors to execute the wedding exactly as we had hoped! Truly, while we already felt confident about our day thanks to the DD team’s INCREDIBLE SUPPORT AND PROFESSIONALISM during the planning process, we did not anticipate just how incredible Fidan and Milena would be on the day itself. They MAKE YOU FEEL LIKE CELEBRITIES the whole day—escorting you, guiding you, supporting your family, communicating with headphones and microphones to all the vendors—it was amazing. Our day was nothing short of FLAWLESS, which we know will make for AMAZING LIFELONG MEMORIES. We are thus sooo grateful to them and HIGHLY RECOMMEND them to others!

10/10 the best!


Having our wedding planned by Fidan, was the most amazing experience.
She has the right attitude and personality to plan a stressful event and we really appreciated that during the planning process.
The vendors she chose for us, met our expectations and everything went so smoothly on our wedding day. My fiancé and I were completely stress-free and didn’t have to worry about anything on the day of the wedding.
She was always available to answer our questions, and to answer our calls. I am a perfectionist bride, and Fidan’s help was beyond my expectations.
We had a few hiccups here and there as any wedding would, but Fidan was always there to support us. What a big smile and a calm personality.
We highly recommend Fidan for Destination Weddings specially, if you want a hassle free wedding.

A True Dream Team!

Milena and Sharaf of the Designed Dream team were incredible to work with while planning our wedding.
They worked with us the month before the wedding and day-of.
I could not have asked for better planners. They were professional, attentive and most importantly, flexible. Although I added some challenges (i.e. not doing a first look and squeezing in a receiving line), they were honest about the downsides, but ultimately made it work as best they could to ensure our day was exactly as we envisioned it.
I also appreciated that they gave us vendor referrals that met our budget and needs leading up to the day.
The day ran smoothly and we were truly able to enjoy ourselves because we knew everything was in the best of hands.
Thank you Milena and Sharaf!

Outstanding Wedding Planner

I had the pleasure of working with Fidan as my wedding planner for my destination wedding in Punta Cana, and I couldn't have been happier with the experience. From the beginning, Fidan was extremely organized, responsive, and attentive to all of my needs and preferences. She worked tirelessly to ensure that every detail of my wedding was perfect and that my day was stress-free.

Fidan's expertise in the industry was evident throughout the planning process, and she offered valuable insights and recommendations on everything from venue selection to menu planning. She even suggested the best vendors for photographers, hair and makeup artist, and MC, who all did an amazing job on the day.

Her attention to detail was impeccable, and she went above and beyond to make my wedding day truly special. Overall, I cannot recommend Fidan enough to anyone looking for a wedding planner. She is professional, organized, and truly cares about her clients and their special day. Thank you, Fidan, for making my destination wedding a dream come true!

extremely happy with Designed dream Fidan, Mandy and team

I had to move my wedding twice during covid, DD team have always came through for me. They were flexible to work with and they made sure to check in, connect and align with ALL OF MY 15 vendors. This group of women are amazing, I don't know how I could have done my wedding without them. They made sure there was a detailed agenda for the day of and it went without a glitch. I can't ask for a better planning team than this group of ladies. I genuinely would recommend them to anybody who is looking and they are THE BEST team in town. They know what the heck they are doing and they are the best.
