A Message from TOI.KZ Founder Bakhtiyar Aryngazin

Dear friends! My name is Bakhtiyar Aryngazin. For 20 years I have been organizing events in Astana and throughout Kazakhstan. During this time, organizing holidays has become for me not just a profession, but an area that I know from the inside.

I decided to combine the accumulated experience, insight and understanding of the industry into TOI.KZ - an online service for people who are preparing a wedding, Kazakh toi, corporate event or other important event.

Why toi

Kazakh toi is an integral part of our culture. Over the centuries, it has evolved from the traditions of national celebration, family communication and hospitality. The occasions may be different, but the word “toi” itself has long meant much more to the Kazakhs than just a banquet.

Toi is about emotions, joy, communication and dancing. This is an opportunity to gather relatives and friends nearby. It is no coincidence that in wishes we often hear: “Let’s see each other only at parties.”

How the holiday culture has changed

About a well-spent evening they say that the evening passed “in one breath” or “at a high level.” Over two decades, we have seen how the industry itself has changed.

Toi became more technologically advanced and more spectacular. New show formats, screens, modern stage solutions and new generations of artists appeared. At the same time, the traditional value of the holiday has not disappeared.

The Toi culture is our heritage, and the Toi organization is our work.

We know wedding restaurants in Astana, we work with hosts, artists and sought-after pop stars, we understand the peculiarities of the wedding market in Kazakhstan and we know what solutions really work at the event.

Why TOI.KZ was created

TOI.KZ is conceived as a practical service for organizing a holiday. Here you can meet artists, read recommendations from organizers, study materials about restaurants, hosts and show programs, and also follow changes in the wedding market in Astana and Kazakhstan.

We will regularly add new artist profiles and publish useful articles based not only on theory, but also on real experience of holding events.

Our mission is to help develop the Toi culture and make the professional organization of the holiday clearer and more accessible. So that each guest receives their own piece of joy, and the hosts of the holiday can really enjoy their event.

Thank you for visiting TOI.KZ and wish you good, beautiful and truly happy holidays.
