About Gee What a Wedding

Gee What a Wedding is the Melbourne planning business of Gee Tankir, a wedding planner, registered marriage celebrant and MC with more than 550 weddings behind her. Before moving into events she worked for two decades in financial accounting, and that shows in how closely she tracks each budget line alongside the timeline. Couples choose how much help they want. Full Wedding Planning starts at the very first venue search and covers supplier management, design direction, budget tracking, RSVPs and complete management on the day. Wedding Planning Only suits couples who want to stay involved, with regular check-ins and supplier guidance but no on-site presence. Wedding Day Management & Coordination is for couples who have booked everything themselves. Gee and her team join about six months out, build the full timeline and run the day from ceremony to reception, while a luxury tier handles weddings with twenty or more suppliers. Other celebrations get the same approach: engagement parties, first and milestone birthdays, henna nights and graduation soirées, plus launches, masterclasses, gala dinners, charity fundraisers and VIP dinners for businesses. Because Gee is also a celebrant and MC, one person can plan a wedding, conduct the ceremony in English or Turkish and host the reception. Send an enquiry to arrange a free 20-minute call about your date and guest count.

How We Work

Every booking begins with a free 20-minute call about your date, vision and guest count. Gee then manages suppliers, budgets and timelines, joining supplier meetings and preparing detailed budgets and run sheets.

For coordination clients her team, together for over ten years, comes in around six months out and runs the full day. For private and corporate events she organises the venue, styling, catering, AV, entertainment and running sheet, then runs the event behind the scenes.

Frequently asked questions

What does full wedding planning with Gee What a Wedding cover?

It runs from the first venue search to the farewell at the end of the night: venue scouting and negotiation, every supplier, styling direction, budget tracking, the timeline, RSVP coordination and full management on the day.

When does day-of coordination start?

Gee recommends joining about six months before the wedding so every supplier and handover can be confirmed early. A shorter option closer to the date is available, though she is upfront that it cannot cover as much.

Does Gee plan events other than weddings?

Yes. She plans engagement parties, first and milestone birthdays, henna nights and graduation soirées, as well as shop and product launches, masterclasses, gala dinners, charity fundraisers and corporate functions.

Can Gee be our planner and our celebrant?

Yes. Gee is a registered marriage celebrant and MC, so many couples have her plan the wedding, conduct the ceremony and host the reception, leaving them with a single contact throughout.

How much does it cost to work with Gee What a Wedding?

Day-of coordination and private event planning start from $2,500, planning support from $3,000, full wedding planning from $5,500, launches from $3,500 and galas or corporate events from $4,500. Prices are indicative and confirmed when you book.
