Hasti
My name is Hasti (say it with me - "ha ha ha Hasti" or “Hass-Tea” aka “Hasti-La-Vista”) and I'm the proud Owner + Lead Planner of La Vista Events, based in beautiful Vancouver, Canada. Since launching in 2014, I promised myself that I would always place an emphasis on quality and integrity. Clients love working with us because we don't just focus on the planning & logistics. Sure, we love beautiful decor and flowers but there is so much more…
There is a psychology behind planning and producing beautiful, memorable celebrations. The scope of our work goes beyond the emails, meetings, and design and deeper into understanding who you are as a person, as a couple, as a family and what makes you excited, anxious, or emotional. More than a planner, my team of certified planners work with you from a place of love and compassion and we welcome all kinds of love!
When I look back on these past few years… all I can reflect on is how truly humbling it was to have had friends become clients and clients become friends. Planning a wedding or event is no easy feat. My team and I work with a lot of love and attention with the intention of making every client feel like they're our only client. To us, that's the definition of success and there is no better feeling.
Find out for yourself! Working with the La Vista Events team won't feel like work. You'll have the mutual feeling of gaining a friend and confidante – an unbiased party - who will be there for you emotionally as you embark on this beautiful chapter of life.
Sara
This little ball of energy has been with LVE from the very beginning. Hasti + Sara met “working” as bridesmaids in 2013 and obtained their wedding planning certification together shortly after via the Wedding Planner’s Institute of Canada. Sara has a business degree and years of hotel hospitality experience which has come in handy at many of our weddings
FUN FACT: Sara is one of our only planners who, after all these years, still cries at every single wedding. She thinks she’s gotten better at hiding it but we always catch her sniffling with a tissue -especially after sending down the couple down the aisle.
BEHIND THE SCENES: Sara’s specialty is being with our couples and the wedding party. Our couples LOVE how Sara becomes an instant friend (an unbiased, helpful friend with no drama). For most weddings, Sara is the go-to couple’s assistant but she is so much more than that. Think of her as your very own VIP concierge service and BFF rolled into one. She will be with you from start to finish - from the time you’re getting dressed (she’ll even help tighten the corset or help you figure out how to maneuver in your tux) to packing up your personal items and taking them (and you and your spouse) to your room to say goodbye at the end of the night.
SARA’S WEAKNESSES: Her height (shorty problems!), dogs (even though she’s allergic), and designer shoes AND purses.
