Impresario Events

Last reviewed: August 10, 2026. Business status: Active.

Impresario Events is a wedding-planning business serving Toronto, the GTA and Niagara. For couples comparing Toronto wedding planners, its official website describes full and partial planning, day-of coordination, and destination-wedding support.

The company’s published services focus on helping couples organize wedding logistics, from venue and vendor selection to itineraries and on-site management. Its team page identifies Zerlene Mekdeci as director, owner and lead planner, and Zoya Rizwan as a lead planner.

Business overview

Impresario Events is a current wedding-planning provider with an official website dedicated to wedding planning, day-of coordination and destination weddings. The business presents local planning and coordination as distinct services, while its destination offering combines travel arrangements with wedding-planning support.

The official site also describes experience with weddings across several cultural and faith traditions, including South Asian, Chinese, Jewish, Greek Orthodox, West Indian, Catholic and cross-cultural celebrations. This is a stated area of experience; couples should still discuss the specific traditions, schedule and suppliers required for their own event.

Services and specialization

Full wedding planning is described for couples beginning without a venue or vendor team, while partial planning is for couples who have secured a venue or need more limited help. Published planning tasks include budget creation and management, venue selection, décor and floral-styling recommendations, music coordination, photography and video recommendations, transportation, stationery, hotel room blocks, rehearsals, detailed documentation and on-site management.

Day-of coordination, also called month-of coordination on the official site, is designed for couples who have planned the wedding but want professional management on the day. The business says its coordinators begin reviewing plans about four to six weeks in advance and can provide a wedding audit, itinerary, vendor confirmations, setup support, rehearsal assistance and on-site management.

For destination celebrations, Impresario Events describes a start-to-finish service covering travel and wedding details. Published travel support includes resort selection, group rates, flights, hotels, transfers and optional excursions. Additional wedding-planning work can include coordination with resort teams and help assessing destination wedding packages.

Service area and who it may suit

The official team page lists wedding-planning and wedding-day-coordination coverage in Toronto, the GTA and Niagara. Its planning page specifically names Hamilton, Durham, Halton, Peel and York regions within its wider local coverage.

Destination-wedding clients are welcome from anywhere in Canada, according to the official site, for weddings in Mexico and the Caribbean. The business may suit couples who want one provider to discuss both travel logistics and wedding planning, as well as local couples looking for either a comprehensive planning role or support closer to the wedding date.

Confirmed strengths and practical limitations

A documented strength is the breadth of published planning scope. The business separates full planning, partial planning and coordination rather than presenting a single generic service, and lists practical deliverables such as itineraries, vendor confirmations, rehearsal support and on-site management.

The official team page states that Zerlene Mekdeci and Zoya Rizwan are certified by the Wedding Planners Institute of Canada, and that Mekdeci is TICO certified to provide travel services for destination weddings. The site also states that Mekdeci is a South Asian Wedding Specialist.

A practical limitation is that the official website does not publish fixed package inclusions, a public availability calendar or a postal business address for Impresario Events. A couple should confirm date availability, meeting arrangements, planning scope and destination coverage directly before relying on the listing.

Pricing

Current pricing is not explicitly published. The official wedding-planning and day-of-coordination pages say pricing depends on factors including wedding size, location, time of year and day of the week, and invite couples to request an individualized quote.

For destination weddings, the website says travel-agent services are provided at no additional cost, while further wedding-planning-related destination services may carry a fee. Ask for a written breakdown that distinguishes planning fees, travel arrangements, resort costs, supplier charges and any destination-specific coordination work.

Current prices are not published on the official pages reviewed.

Contact and booking

The official website lists 416-953-9375 and info@impresarioevents.ca, with a contact form that asks for a wedding date, guest count and additional information. Its planning pages also refer to a complimentary initial meeting or consultation for an individualized quote.

To make the first conversation useful, provide the event date, local venue or destination idea, approximate guest count, planning stage, budget parameters and the support needed. For destination weddings, include the travellers’ departure region and preferred Mexico or Caribbean locations.

What couples should confirm

Confirm that the requested wedding date, venue or destination is available, and identify the lead planner and any on-site support planned for the event. Ask which tasks are included in the selected service level and when planning or coordination begins.

For local weddings, clarify responsibility for vendor communication, contracts, budget tracking, setup instructions, rehearsal leadership, timelines and end-of-reception coverage. For destination weddings, confirm the travel-booking process, resort liaison role, group arrangements, legal-marriage guidance and any planning fees beyond travel-agent services.

If the wedding includes cultural, religious or multi-day events, share those requirements early. The official site describes relevant experience, but the couple should verify how the specific ceremony sequence and associated logistics will be supported.
