She’s unflappable and an expert multitasker who takes time to design both the overall experience, and the individual details of every event she’s involved with. People are at the heart of ByChenai Events, and Chenai invests a lot of time and energy into forging close relationships with her clients, often remaining friends long after their event is over. With a brilliant network of the best suppliers in the industry, Chenai and her team prides herself on being able to match every client with the right supplier for their style – celebrating talented wedding industry peers, and creating incredible expressions of her couples’ love stories.
