Chic Affairs & Events

Houston, TX


Chic Affairs & Events is a Houston-based luxury wedding planning and event coordination company led by Uma Valikodath — a certified wedding planner with a meticulous eye for detail, a genuine warmth toward every couple she works with, and a deep familiarity with the customs, traditions, and logistics of multicultural celebrations. Servicing events across all 50 states from her Houston base, Uma and her team specialize in the planning, management, coordination, design, and full execution of weddings and events that are as culturally rich as they are visually stunning.


What Una brings to every engagement is a fresh, honest perspective on the planning process — one that prioritizes the couple's vision above all else, and backs it with the kind of meticulous preparation that means problems are anticipated long before they have a chance to surface. Clients and guests alike consistently describe her weddings as flawlessly executed, layered with detail, and deeply personal — with one reviewer noting that "family members felt like they were blessed to see a wedding like this in their lifetime." She has successfully delivered everything from intimate ceremonies to large-scale South Asian multi-day celebrations, navigating Indian, American, and cross-cultural traditions with equal confidence and care.


Uma's cultural breadth is one of her most valued qualities. Clients highlight her wide knowledge of various Indian and American wedding customs — meaning she understands the rhythm of a multi-event South Asian weekend without needing it explained, and can adapt just as naturally to any tradition, faith, or fusion format a couple brings to the table.


Her services honor all forms of love and inclusive celebrations, with both single-day and multi-day pricing packages available to accommodate the full spectrum of South Asian wedding weekends — from a standalone nikah or reception to a full mehndi, sangeet, ceremony, and reception package.

Services include full wedding planning, day-of coordination, event design, and vendor coordination — available as standalone packages or combined for complete end-to-end support.


Chic Affairs & Events — where every detail is handled, every tradition is honored, and every couple walks away saying it was the wedding of their guests' lifetimes.
