Our guest today is Saadia from Kismet Event Design. We were first introduced to Saadi's work at a South Asian Bride event and were blown away by her work.

In this interview, Saadia shares with us the difference between event design and event decor. We talk about the value of Pinterest, Saadia's superpower i.e. bridal telepathy, how to select an event designer and much, much more.
