About

On WeddingWire since 2024

At A Connection, You Dream. We Create. A women-owned, women-led small business, A Connection is a wedding & event planning company with almost half a decade of experience in the wedding planning industry. A Connection offers tailored packages to couples looking for wedding planners & day-of coordinators for their big day. While we are based out of central NJ, we offer services worldwide and take pride in specializing in South Asian wedding events. In the past 5 years, A Connection has planned & hosted over 30 events in New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania & Chicago. For 2024, we have hosted 8 events already and have booked 10 more to start with.

***We are also proud to announce that we are one of the first South Asian Wedding Planning Companies in NJ to go international within such a short period of time.***

Founded by owner & CEO, Abha Desai, in November of 2019, A Connection was established with the hopes of forging connections with and between clients, vendors and colleagues in the industry as well as members of her community. For years, Abha dreamt of sharing her creative approach to event design with the world and after finding success in the entreprenurial world, she decided to take the leap and start the business. She believes that making connections is one of the most important parts of her role as a wedding planner. From connecting couples with like-minded vendors to curating experiences that bring people together, connection is a constant in everything she does. Her business name, A Connection, celebrates this belief, as she is one individual responsible for helping so many people connect and collaborate!

Running the business alongside Abha is her partner, Rohini Brahmbhatt, who joined the industry officially in early 2024 after earning experience in event management and planning for over 10 years. Raised with the motto "In the Joy of Others Lies Our Own," Rohini enjoys exemplifying acts of service through wedding planning, which she believes helps to forge real connections with couples, their families & friends. What started off as an application of her talent for a side hustle has very quickly turned into a life-changing opportunity and passion!

Combining Abha's vendor connections, industy experience and networking capability with Rohini's organization, social management skills and marketing capability, these 2 ladies make an unparalleled wedding planning duo!

The best wedding coordinators

Rohini and Abha are amazing!!!! They are so proactive, thoughtful, timely, highly professional, and well-organized. They organized every detail of my friend's wedding perfectly, and helped coordinate all tasks with the bridal party, parents, vendors, and more. They each have some 10+ years of experience organizing major events, and it clearly shows in their time management and professionalism. They really went above and beyond, being consistent and reliable in their work and even helping to troubleshoot issues with other vendors. 5 stars, I highly recommend them!

Review of A Connection

We recently had the absolute pleasure of working with A Connection, and they surpassed our expectations in every conceivable way. From our initial consultation, it was clear we were in exceptionally capable hands. Their professionalism, creativity, and meticulous attention to detail were apparent throughout the entire planning process. The team truly brought our vision to life. Their organizational skills are unparalleled, managing all logistics seamlessly, coordinating with our vendors, and handling last-minute changes with remarkable grace. On the day of our wedding, everything ran like clockwork, allowing us to immerse ourselves in the celebration without a hint of stress or worry. Each detail, from the stunning floral arrangements to the exquisite lighting and table settings, was executed to perfection, creating the romantic I ambiance we had envisioned. Their customer service is exceptional; they were consistently available to answer our questions, provide updates, and offer unwavering support, making the entire planning experience less of a challenge. I would highly recommend this service to anyone!
