What makes Deepti Tyagi with Weddings And Events by 7Elements a good neighbor?

From sewing beautiful garments in India to crafting unforgettable celebrations in Dallas, Deepti Tyagi's creative journey showcases the power of reinvention and determination. As founder of Weddings And Events by 7Elements, Deepti brings a unique perspective to event planning, influenced by her background in fashion design and her experience adapting to life in a new country.

Deepti's story begins at IFT Delhi, where she studied fashion and apparel design before spending five years in the industry handling global accounts. After running her own boutique for eight years, she faced a pivotal moment when relocating to Dallas in 2014. What started as volunteering at school and community events evolved into a thriving business that now creates magical weddings, birthday parties, baby showers, and special celebrations.

What sets Deepti apart is her genuine passion for creating personalized experiences. "We care deeply about every event," she explains. "It's not just about planning or decoration. It's about creating something special for someone's big day." She dispels the common misconception that event planners are only for grand occasions, emphasizing that professional guidance can actually save time and money by preventing costly mistakes.
