What It Really Means to Work with a Top Toronto Wedding Planner
Planning a wedding in Toronto is no small feat, and if you're dreaming of a wedding that feels effortlessly elegant, authentically you, and beautifully curated from start to finish, you're in the right place.
I’m Alisha, the founder and creative director of Events by Whim, and I’ve had the honour of planning love stories across this beautiful city for over a decade. If you’ve found yourself searching for the top Toronto wedding planner for your celebration, I want to share a few thoughts, not just about what makes a planner “top-tier,” but how we approach planning at Events by Whim with heart, vision, and intention.

It Starts with Connection
Before any spreadsheets or style boards, we begin with you. At Events by Whim, we believe that a truly exceptional wedding is built on a foundation of understanding. We get to know you both, not just your aesthetic preferences, but your values, your story, and the energy you want your guests to feel on your day.
Our values-driven approach means we don’t just look for “pretty,” we look for purpose. Every detail should feel meaningful. That’s what turns an event into an experience.

Curated Vendor Partnerships
Being one of the top Toronto wedding planners means having a curated network of exceptional professionals. Over the years, we’ve built trusted relationships with the city’s most talented florists, photographers, caterers, and entertainers, and we match you with vendors who align with your style, your personalities, and your priorities.
We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all packages. Every couple receives a fully customized experience because no two love stories are the same.

Luxury is in the Details
To us, luxury isn’t about extravagance, it’s about intention. It’s the feeling your guests get when they enter the space, when the music swells at just the right moment, when the signature cocktail is named after your pet, or when the menu tells a story about your cultural backgrounds.
Luxury is seamlessness. It's a perfectly paced event. It’s the kind of celebration where every moment feels personal and every guest feels honoured.

Guest Experience Is Everything
The people you invite to your wedding are the same people who have cheered you on in life. That’s why we focus so deeply on creating moments that honour your guests, too. From thoughtful welcome experiences to smooth transitions throughout the day, we design with their comfort and delight in mind.
When we hear guests say, “This was the best wedding I’ve ever been to and it was so them,” — that’s when we know we’ve done our job.

Finally, Choose Wisely
Choosing a top Toronto wedding planner is more than just hiring someone to organize your day. It’s about finding someone who sees you, who protects your vision, and who builds an event that reflects your love and your legacy.
