Back in 2019 when I was thinking who can I ask for emcee on my son’s graduation celebration party, the only one person came to my mind was Soumya. I don’t know why, I have never seen you in any event doing emcee as you were new to Virginia at that time. But, I had strong belief that Soumya will do the best, and you did it. You nailed it, drawing the attention of 200 people who were present there. Excellent job! Many people came to me, asking if I haired a professional. I said proudly, “no I did not, Soumya is my friend”. Starting the journey from there and here you are now, Chai and Champagne Affair! Keep growing dear!

Thanks to Soumya, Apekshya and the entire crew of Chaiand ChampagneAffair , we had a fantastic graduation party for our son Krish. We have done many parties before, where we did everything ourselves. This time we relied completely on CCA and the experience was great. The CCA team did an outstanding job. Everything was taken care of. We just got to the venue and enjoyed our time with guests. The CCA team has everything you need with a great network of vendors to cater to your needs. Just tell them your requirement and everything will be handled by them - the venue, the decoration, food and drinks, DJ, photography and many more services that you may need for your party. This is like a one stop shop for your party. What’s more impressive is that they listen to you, take your ideas, curate them further and create a great experience for you. Highly recommend using their service.

Soumya, Words fall short to show our gratitude for you, the sincerity with which you anchored and the difference that you made in Nikhil’s graduation is truly appreciated. Your presence was a perfect blend of kindness, being sensible to our emotional state and at the same time wittiness and sense of humor and entertainment to suit guests’ taste. It was such a BIG relief to have you around during the graduation and we cannot thank you enough for that.

We had the pleasure of working with Soumya from Chai & Champagne Affair for our son’s first birthday party, and we couldn’t be more impressed. From start to finish, she made the entire process seamless and stress-free. The attention to detail was exceptional, ensuring everything went off without a hitch. She took the time to understand our preferences, offering creative suggestions while keeping everything within our budget. Her ability to coordinate vendors, handle logistics, and manage the timeline was beyond impressive. On the day of the event, we were able to relax and enjoy, knowing everything was in capable hands. As an emcee, she did an outstanding job! With her energy, charisma, and seamless flow, she kept the audience engaged and entertained throughout the entire event. If you're looking for someone who is organized, creative, and truly dedicated to making your event a success, I highly recommend Chai & Champagne Affair. They turned our ideas into reality, and the event was a huge hit with all my guests!
