Year 2005, I finished schooling from Springdales in Delhi and the cocoon of being protected was suddenly sprung open, I always believed that I am " One of a Kind" but had no clue how?

I dreaded Monotony and did not want to do what everybody did, hence always found a way to be different. I was found more in extra curricular activities than in my classes, hence when came the time to enter college , I did not want to go to yet another regular course. I graduated in Business Economics from Delhi University, specialising in Marketing and then went on to study event management to Pune. That is when my journey into events began.

I took to working on the weekends during my graduation to earn pocket money and break the monotony of college  and in no time I figured that Event Management was the way forward for my Career.

In 2008 I moved to Pune to study events as my post graduation subject and started working into fundraising events , during my tenure in Pune I fell in love with the idea of Destination weddings and since then there has been no looking back.

After working for Concern India Foundation, India Wedding Planner, Back 2 Culture, X factor Weddings, The Shaadi Company I finally started Q & A Weddings in 2015 and acquired it under Weddings by Garima Kumar in 2016. My Website GKWW - stands for Garima Kumar Weddings and Wellness.

To Expand the Wellness arm, I have Launched ZoTo - The Art of Hampers & ZoTo - The Art of Self Care. Currently, We have A Walk in Studio Base Out of Goa.

My 17 + Years of Experience in the Industry taught me a few very important things in life:-

1. The longest distance to travel is the One feet between Heart and Mind.

2. Time is the only real currency.

3. There is no Glass ceiling and there are no boundaries, Its a box inside your head.

Once I was able to comprehend these principals into my life, my clients were extended families and I can now boast over 300 such extended families across the globe.
