Shveta Dhillon, Founder & CEO
My name is Michelle Shveta Dhillon, CEO of A Panache Affair. With over 13 years of successful event planning experience and 21 years in the hospitality and sales industry, I remain passionate about creating exceptional experiences for my clients.
My strong background in identifying client needs led me to establish A Panache Affair and the APA Standard, which centers on crafting customized events that reflect the unique personalities and visions of our clients. We believe in building personal relationships with our clients, understanding their vision, desires and earning their trust. The goal is to go above expectations, and execute perfection.
Our focus is not on the quantity of weddings we plan, but on the quality and attention to detail we bring to each event. We take pride in making our clients' visions a reality.
This is the APA Standard. This is A Panache Affair.
Every detail is custom-curated to reflect your love story, culture, and style. There are no cookie cutter templates here.
Cohesive, elevated designs that feel immersive, intentional, and unforgettable.
Our relationships with sought after luxury vendors unlock elevated options, transparent recommendations, and thoughtful value for your investment.
Whether it's weather, wardrobe, or a last minute vendor hiccup, we handle it gracefully. Without disruption.
Backed by years of complex events and features in leading publications, our team brings tested judgment and a trusted reputation to every decision.
Dedicated team managing every element behind the scenes so you can be fully present and enjoy every moment.

We recommend booking 8–15 months in advance for weddings or large-scale events. However, we also accommodate shorter timelines depending on availability. For full planning services, 12-18 months in advance is ideal.
We specialize in high-end weddings, milestone celebrations, corporate galas, and luxury social gatherings. Every event is tailored to reflect your vision with sophistication, precision, and flair. We operate nationwide with a home base in Arizona and California, and we absolutely travel for destination events globally.
We have established relationships with many exceptional vendors and often secure special industry rates, but we're happy to work with your preferred vendors as well. Our goal is to create the best team for your specific vision and needs, ensuring cohesive execution and elevated results.
Yes—we offer this through our Helping Hand package. We’ve curated this service to provide the ideal blend of late-stage planning and full day-of coordination. It allows us to dive into your vision early enough to ensure a flawless execution when the moment finally arrives. Ask us for more details!
Simply reach out via the contact form below, email us, or give us a call. We'll schedule a complimentary consultation to discuss your vision and determine how we can best serve you to make your celebration unforgettable.
We don't believe in a one-size-fits-all aesthetic. Our strength lies in curating events that feel elevated, cohesive, and deeply personal—whether that's timeless elegance, modern minimalism, or bold cultural fusion. Your style becomes our canvas.
We provide a shared Google Drive folder that houses all key documents—your planning questionnaire, master doc (with timelines, seating, budget, and more), mood boards, vendor invoices, and more—accessible anytime. Communication is primarily via email and virtual meetings, with in-person meetings included depending on your selected package.
We typically divide payments into 3 or 4 installments, depending on the overall duration of the planning process. However, we are happy to remain flexible and can adjust the payment schedule to best suit your needs. The only non-negotiable is that the final payment is due 30 days prior to the event date.
Because we're not just planners—we're storytellers, strategists, and experience architects. From the first detail to the final toast, we bring a level of polish and passion that transforms your event into a lasting memory. This is the APA Standard.
We’re grateful for the chance to be part of this moment in your story. If you feel aligned with our style and philosophy, we’d be delighted to begin crafting an event that reflects you, honors your journey, and unfolds beautifully from start to finish.
