Both Kathy and Pouya helped plan my Sofreh Aghd and they were wonderful to work with. They worked with my picky self to come up with a gorgeous design after we went over some inspiration photos. They were very patient, caring, hard working, and punctual with everything. When I say they went out of their way last minute when things went wrong, I'm not exaggerating. These two are life savers! Such an honor to work with you. I'm so glad my sister found you. Thank you for all your hard work. Keep it up!

A heartfelt thank you to Kathy Events, and especially to Pouya and Sahar, for making our wedding on April 5, 2025 truly unforgettable. The sofreh aghd, fruit and dessert table, and dinner were exactly what we wanted — and probably better! Each element was beautifully designed and executed with such care. We received countless compliments from our guests on how stunning everything looked and tasted. Both Pouya and Sahar were a joy to work with — kind, professional, and truly passionate about what they do.

The Sofreh Aghd service was absolutely excellent and I'm really happy. I'm usually a bit of a picky person, but they were extremely well-mannered, very on time, and did everything perfectly. I'm so glad I worked with them.

I worked with Kathy Events, Pouya and Sahar, for one year to coordinate my daughter's wedding. They were professional, reasonable, fantastic quality, elegant design (my daughter is a designer and picky) and most of all patient — they did exactly as we wanted. We had a perfect event, and the food quality was the best we had ever had. The on-site BBQ was the highlight of the appetizers, truly the best kabab we've ever had — shrimp, koobideh and lamb chops. Pastry and fruit table fantastic, and the white fish was a favorite according to all our guests. Thanks Kathy Events, we will be back.

One of the best experiences I have ever had with a company. Pouya and Sahar took care of our Sofreh Aghd, dessert and fruit table, cocktail-hour appetizers, and dinner at our wedding. The amount of compliments I have received from our guests is proof they are the best. They are so welcoming and easy to work with, and made sure my vision came to light. Food was flavorful, the Sofreh beautifully made, and the dessert table delicious. Thank you a million times for making our special day even more perfect.

I'm very happy to have found them! I called and left a voicemail, and the owner, Pouya, called me back within the hour. He was very polite and helped me with my request, and sent lots of photos of their work. I was looking to reserve a Sofreh Aghd for my daughter's wedding — she wanted something small and chic with clear items. Pouya and his wife Sahar threw a beautiful sofreh and even referred a florist who designed a very special bouquet. If you'd like to throw a party, Pouya and his crew can help with almost all of your essentials. Thank you Pouya and Sahar!

If you want Persian or Middle Eastern food at your event you must, must, MUST go with Kathy Events! As a former groom, planning the big day is stressful and you want your guests to love the food — everyone was drooling over the appetizers, the main course, and the desserts. The fruit and décor arrangements were gorgeous, and everything looked so classy and elegant. Both Pouya and Sahar are the kindest people, and even accommodated last-minute dietary requests right away. Of all our vendors, they were our favorite. 100% would recommend, especially for weddings!

A huge shoutout to Kathy Events, specifically Pouya and Sahar, for making our wedding extra special. The sofreh aghd, sweet, and fruit stations were absolutely killer. Their service is top-notch — solid, super responsive, friendly, and professional. We received a lot of compliments about the beautifully decorated sofreh, the vibrant fruits, and delicious desserts. If you're planning an event, we highly recommend Kathy Events. They know how to make things not just good but awesome.
