We are so incredibly grateful for everything that Jo Ann did to make our big day absolutely perfect. Planning an Indian wedding can be overwhelming but she made the entire process feel smooth, thoughtful, and truly personal to us. My husband Abhi and I were beyond happy with the vendors she helped us craft together. Each one was a perfect fit and brought our vision to life beautifully.
Her attention to detail and calm, organized energy made the day-of experience completely seamless. We were able to be fully present and soak in every moment without stress and it was all thanks to her and her coordination with her counterpart Joy.
If you’re looking for someone who understands the importance of cultural traditions, communicates clearly, and brings a warm, professional presence to every step of the planning process, Jo Ann is your person to go to. We couldn’t have asked for a better planner!

Wow, what a difference working with Apropos made! My wedding night would not have been the same without Brittany and Jo Ann. I opted for the day-of coordination package, and so I did a lot of the prep work myself, but both ladies were always available to answer my questions along the way. Their Aisle Planner tool was a great checklist for me to stay on track and maintain my sanity. Even doing much of the planning myself, I couldn't have imagined in advance how much work Brittany would actually end up doing day-of, but she was a superhero! Every mini-fire that popped up, she was ready for. She was calm and collected, and took everything that was thrown her way. Her presence gave me the chance to enjoy the day/night without any worries. From the things I asked for, to the things I didn't even know to ask about, she kept things running smoothly. Jo Ann even made an appearance during setup, and it felt like a friend jumping in to lend a hand. Great ladies, I can't say enough good things about my experience working with them! If you're not sure if you need a planner, I'm telling you it's worth it, and you'll be so glad you did!

Just do me a favor - hire them.
How do I even start or even explain the pure perfection Jo Ann and Joy provide? I am a Type-A person, and I live with a constant motto: "If you are going to do something give it a 100%, or don't bother wasting your time on it." Jo Ann and Joy took my motto to heart, exceeded my expectations, and made my wedding process much easier. My family had an ongoing joke that I'd be a bridezilla and be miserable throughout my wedding, but somehow, these ladies helped me keep my cool and ensured my dream wedding came to life. These women were much more than just my wedding planners, by the end of the process they became my friends, and I think every couple needs that type of people in their corner. Wedding planning is stressful, especially when you plan a traditional Hindu wedding. Jo Ann and Joy tackled my traditional Hindu wedding with such grace and professionalism that my 7 event wedding was a literal breeze. I had nothing to worry about because no matter what time, day, or what they were doing, if I had any questions, concerns, or all of the above, these ladies happily were there to take on every obstacle I had. I never felt like I was being annoying, a burden, or just asking for too much. They made it so easy to trust them with their job, and they were on top of everything. On top of that, my brother and literal family became so fond of these two as well. We have an ongoing statement now that whatever family wedding happens, we are hiring Jo Ann and Joy with no hesitation. I will constantly vouch for their work. Trust me, your wedding day will be so much better with these two around. They go above and beyond to fulfill not only the couples wishes but families too, and they are pros at handling fires. Every fire I had throughout my wedding week, these ladies literally put it out with a smile. They are wonderful people, and wonderful planners. They really care about the work they do, and it vibrantly shows. To my future married couple, save yourself the struggle and time - just hire them. I need you to trust me. Jo Ann and Joy can handle it all.

Oh my goodness - where to even start with this review! Jo Ann was absolutely wonderful to work with. She was incredibly knowledgable, organized, and a true force - which is exactly what we needed. We booked Apropos for month-of coordination and it was truly one of the best wedding decisions we could have made. There were just so many little details that my husband and I would have n e v e r thought of, that Jo Ann and Joy were on top of. They were so communicative with us and with our other vendors. They always had answers for our questions and solutions for anything that would come up unexpectedly. They were truly so genuine and caring and it made us feel secure and confident that everything would come together flawlessly. They listened to our vision and never pressured us to go a direction that we didn't want to, but at the same time were always honest which we really appreciated. Jo Ann and Joy had such positive energy and we're so grateful to have had the honor to work with them. Honestly, we recommend Apropos 100%!!

Apropos Creations/ Jo Ann Grant was such a pleasure to work with. Jo Ann is a true professional and knows all the ins and outs about wedding planning, and in our case she was the backbone of our very complex multicultural wedding which turned out absolutely AMAZING!!
We brought Jo Ann on board while we lived out of state, and from the beginning she was great at communicating with us, and keeping us on track as much as possible. She was just as efficient and responsive when we lived far and once we moved back into town. Jo Ann was also very flexible when we had an unexpected change of date to our wedding and did her best in accommodating such a major change.
All the resources, the suggestions, vendor recommendations, and details that Jo Ann provided for us were priceless and everyone that was recommended delivered flawlessly on the day of our wedding.
Jo Ann was such a crucial part of making our wedding a success at every stage, from the first introduction, to the pre-planning process, to all the detail and vendor management, agenda creating, and execution.
On the day of the event, Jo Ann, and her assistant were absolutely wonderful. We did not have to worry about anything on that day, and were able to just enjoy our day, and everything went flawlessly according to plan.
We highly recommend Apropos Creations and Jo Ann, it truly was a great experience and we will forever remember our day because she helped us make it happen.
