Sola and her team are a true gem! I hired Sola as my wedding coordinator and eventually made the decision to hire her for decor as well. She literally took our vision and ran with it! We could not be happier. She made everything that we both wanted happen! The wedding was so beautiful!! The team was absolutely wonderful. They were so attentive and helpful. Tulsan, Sola's assistant went above and beyond to make sure we were prepared and kept us on time so that we were not late for the wedding (which I now see can easily happen). When I first started planning the wedding, I felt so disorganized because I had no direction. The minute I hired Sola I knew I no longer had to feel that way. She was there to answer all of my questions within a reasonable timeframe (usually right away) and she shared her expert advice without making me feel like I HAD to do things her way (like other vendors had made me feel). I am so grateful to have met and worked with such a wonderful team. Thank you!
Wow!!! Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a detailed and beautiful review for us. Trusting us with your special day meant a lot to us and we are glad we were able to meet your expectations.

We hired Unique Events by Shollah as the Day of Wedding Coordinator for our Daughter's wedding and she was TRULY AMAZING! Very professional! Her team was AWESOME!
Although I did not to meet her entire team that was there personally, however we did see their interactions with guest, other vendors. and amongst themselves and it was great!
Tosin was truly a gem.
We were also able to rent some BEAUTIFUL Chairs from her as well, my Daughter and Bonus son LOVED them!
HIRE Unique Events by Shollah, you won't regret it!

Thank you for trusting me with your daughter's special day! I know it must have been difficult choosing a wedding planner/coordinator when you are Wedding Planner yourself. It was a beautiful day, and I'm glad to be a part of it.

Shollah is very proactive and easy to work with, she really took the stress off our wedding planning to ensure our day was very beautiful and hitch-free. The decorations were superb.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review for me! I really enjoyed working with you and I wish you happy married life.

We had our wedding on September 5th 2021 and the moment we met Shollah earlier this year, we knew we made the right decision picking a really good wedding planner. We secured the partial planning package from her and she definitely was a huge part in our day being everything we wanted. She answered any questions we had and helped us out when we didn't know which direction to go. We are satisfied with picking Shollah as our wedding planner and recommend to others.
Thank you so much Nicole! Your wedding day was so much FUN. I am glad we were a part of your special day. I appreciate you for taking the time to leave a review. it means a lot to me. ❤

I couldn’t have asked for a better day-of coordinator. I hired Sola only 2 week’s out from my wedding and she took care of all the details for the day. This included contacting all my vendors right away. All the way to the wedding I was able to contact Sola with any questions and she responded immediately. Due to many of my wedding party being out of town, we couldn’t do a rehearsal, so the day-of, she was still able to get everyone prepared. Along with keeping the timetable, Sola also assisted in cutting the cake, and getting everything wrapped up after ceremony. I had successful wedding celebration, with many thanks to Sola.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My prices are very low compared to most of my pairs. This was done on purpose, because I want party planning and coordination to be affordable for everyone, given everyone no reason but to hire a professional to help ensure their event goes smoothly, and as planned.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I love to get to know my client and to understand what they love and don't love so I can better exceed all their expectations. I usually will setup an initial phone conversation, then follow up with a face to face meeting if possible. When the client decides to hire, I then require all contracts and all information to be sent to me with a booking fee of 50% of the total amount due. The remaining amount is due 2 weeks to the event.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have attended a lot of seminars, programs that are related to weddings and event planning, and I also took a course on planning a successful wedding.
