Carolina Hatton Design

I am a crazy planner and thought I had every detail and idea narrowed down and thought I’d just need someone to talk to vendors the day of, until I met Carolina. She not only met with all my vendors, made a min by min schedule for my entire bridal party/family, but also instantly understood my decor vision and improved on it. She has impeccable taste and you should absolutely trust her expertise but she will in no way push you or even judge you (while vetting other planners, I found some to be a bit condescending). Even after everything was planned and set up, my mother in law saw her trimming bushes the day of to make sure every was perfect. She even added extra flowers and her own decor last minute to cover some potential eye sores that would have been in all my pictures (this was an amazing save and forever grateful). Her commitment to making your day perfect is unparalleled and her attention to detail does not end with decor. My bridal party have been in many weddings and came up to me to say what an amazing job she did making sure they knew when and where to go. She will make you feel like her only bride- she will always respond right away on email or text. I could go on but seriously look no further. If you hire her, you will have a guaranteed beautiful and seamless wedding.

every day to answer emails, texts and help with every single question. The value and expertise Carolina has to offer is unmatched! Carolina made the over hour drive to come visit our property numerous times to ensure our backyard wedding was executed seamlessly. I can’t help but smile looking back on my experience with Carolina. I would recommend working with Carolina and her team to everyone!!!❤️

rought to the table was critical, as I don’t think a new planner would have been able to foresee some of the potential issues that she did. She gave really good advice and helped guide us to many decisions that were hard to make on our own. She is also very motivated to work and check things off the list which helped us get many tasks done quickly and efficiently. Finally, on our wedding day, her and her assistants were tactful and in constant communication to troubleshoot if need be. She worked her tail off for the 4 days up to and including the wedding day to make sure everything was accounted for. Despite the call for rain all day (Carolina had plans A, B, C and D for possible rain!), the day was perfect and there was zero rain. I cannot thank her enough for working as hard as she did to make our day better than I could even imagine. She also knows many local vendors, quite a few of which we booked as well!

n I had some hiccups through planning and then postponing because of COVID, Carolina was always there to help and get the job done, and FAST. Our venue originally offered a complimentary shuttle to then say they don’t offer that anymore. In a day Carolina had multiple quotes and contracts ready to sign. I highly highly recommend hiring a wedding coordinator, and I can’t say enough good things about Carolina and her work. You just have to see it for yourself. She’s easy to talk to, work with, and she works like you are her only client with the amount of detail and time she’s able to give to you. I highly recommend hiring Carolina, you won’t regret it.

20+ years, already did the big shebang) and want her to do our son's wedding (single, not yet engaged). She goes above and beyond with an exquisite aesthetic and impeccable eye for detail, and does it all with grace and charm and heart. If you are here researching wedding planners, look no further. Carolina brings a vision to life and makes dreams come!

listened very carefully to what we wanted, asked all the right questions along the way, was very attentive to our budget, recommended and managed the vendors, and took care of every single detail even as the details kept changing (planned originally for a super small Covid wedding...delayed it a few months and invited more people. Carolina never batted an eye.) Her responsiveness is remarkable - I cannot remember one time that I emailed, texted, or called that I didn't receive an almost instantaneous response. The day of she and her team transformed my childhood home into a beautiful wedding venue including having to create not one, not two, but three potential locations for the ceremony because the weather simply refused to cooperate. When she brought in the flowers my mother and I literally starting crying, they were so beautiful and perfectly captured the feeling we wanted. (true story: I insisted on carrying around my bouquet not just during much of the wedding but at brunch the next day.) Her team created a charcuterie experience (board is far too limiting a word) that I can assure you our guests will never forget. Everyone at the wedding kept telling me how special it felt and how beautiful it was and she deserves all of the credit for that. During a toast all the guests gave her a resounding round of applause. My sister who splits her time between NYC and the Hamptons already inquired as to whether Carolina would do a wedding in their area. I literally could go on and on. If you've read this far here's my advice: stop your search. Contact Carolina now and get her booked for your big day. It will be the (second) best decision you make for your wedding!

, and then come back to read my review :) Because of covid, I have been working with Carolina and Alexa for almost a year and a half on our wedding. From the very start we got right to the point and they were making recommendations and guiding me on the decisions that I should be making at each stage of the planning process. There are several huge components that I hadn’t even thought of and they not only suggested them but then Carolina would reach out and get quotes for me, which is a HUGE help when you are communicating with multiple vendors. I am not a particularly organized person so I would come into our meetings slightly overwhelmed and I would always leave our meetings feeling completely at ease. It is also worth mentioning that they both are extremely kind and personable and just in general a lot of fun to work with. They have a ton of experience and were able to answer every single question I had. Leading up to the wedding they were communicating with my vendors and making sure all of the timing worked out right. Because of the weather we had to switch some things up very last minute and they handled it all with grace, only involving me in necessary situations. I feel like I could write thousands of words about all that they did in this respect but I’ve got a word limit so let’s move on to decorations :). I had absolutely no idea what I wanted to do in terms of decor, but I was not concerned in the slightest because they had a vision and let me tell you, they created the most beautiful ceremony and reception space. We originally were going to have one big grazing table but with the pandemic we decided to do individual charcuterie boards as the center pieces for the tables. First of all, it’s a week after my wedding and everyone is still talking about these charcuterie boards, they were perfect. They incorporated fruit and flowers and everything else that is expected on a charcuterie board and included the table numbers in the most perfect way, hand painted on little flower pots. Go check out Carolina’s Instagram to see what I’m talking about. I provided a bunch of signs and I showed up to everything laid out beautifully in the perfect spot, and with a beautiful sweetheart table. They also made sure that everything went on as scheduled and made sure that I had everything I needed and nothing I didn’t. I could go on and on. I am 1000% confident they are best out there so you should do everything you can to hire them, they will absolutely make your day perfect.

half (through a pandemic!) to create our perfect day. She found the perfect venue, sourced all of our vendors, and SAVED us at least 10,000 dollars. She flawlessly executed a perfect wedding day on the day of. She also was extremely responsive whenever any question or concern came up. She goes ABOVE and BEYOND!! Her services are worth every penny and then some.

dest person you'll have the pleasure to meet. Carolina helped my husband, Phil, and I plan a microwedding (16 people total) and we were just so blown away with the amount of support and attention she provided us from the very beginning. She was so much more than a "day of" coordinator and stepped up when our florist ghosted us and took control when we had an unexpected ceremony delay the day of the wedding. She was absolutely our voice that day and made sure that our needs and ideas were heard. It was beyond relieving to have Carolina navigate our vendors and the venue to leave us to enjoy the wedding. Our guests raved about her to us and were just so impressed by her leadership and calm head. Carolina met with with Phil and I several times leading up to the wedding, both via Zoom for meetings to discuss our vision and expectations, as well as meeting us at our venue to review layouts and share feedback. She was responsive to all emails and text messages and was consistently up-to-date with each and every timeline she created (believe me, you won't know how often they will change until you start planning! She handled each change in a timely fashion and made sure to share updates with our vendors). Our vendors had nothing but kind, positive interactions with Carolina, too! She really is a dream to work with. As far as design goes, Carolina is just outstanding. When I saw the reception space, I burst into tears. I had been able to hold back up to that point but it was impossible to not weep tears of joy, seeing what she did to transform the room and bring our vision to life. It was everything we wanted-but so much more. She added touches and elements that absolutely made it 100 times better. It felt absolutely magical and the wave of emotions I experienced was testament to her incredible skills. Carolina is an asset as part of your team and a must hire! We will always keep a fond space in our hearts for her and we hope that you will too. She is truly a blessing.

size.  Carolina made herself available night and day to address our questions and kept me sane throughout the whole process.  She worked tirelessly to ensure that even with limited guests and space, we were able to have the wedding of our dreams.  Carolina was able to transform my parents backyard into a dream venue.  Her creativity, organization, and attention to detail made it the absolute best day of my life!  The best decision we made throughout the whole wedding planning process was choosing Carolina.  She is the kindest, most hardworking person in the industry and I can’t recommend her enough to anyone planning a wedding.

goes that extra mile to make the couple happy. My daughter's wedding was straight out of a magazine. She added so many extra touches that truly shows her level of care. Also due to Covid, the wedding was rescheduled 5 times with 3 different venues and vendors. Each time she was there with solutions. Thank you Carolina for making my daughter's dream come true.

oking for a wedding planner/decorator I HIGHLY recommend her!

to any event and wonderful support for an easily overwhelmed bride. I had complete faith in her through the entire process of planning and day of execution. She handles everything with expertise, professionalism and grace. If you get the opportunity to work with Carolina, you will not be dissatisfied.

, followed by a reception on his family’s farm. Knowing that we would have a backyard wedding, we wanted to make sure someone was there to relieve any stress of making sure we stuck to our timeline and things ran smoothly. We were beyond impressed with how seamless the day went! In the months leading up to the wedding, Carolina met with us both at our church, and the farm to review the timeline and details. She was in constant communication with both us, as well as our vendors to ensure that she did not miss a single beat. Josh and I both enjoy salvaging items, and DIY projects; therefor we had a lot of unique details and a vision for what our day would look like. Carolina spent a great deal of time listening to our vision, and discussing details. The moment we pulled up the driveway in our party bus to see how the farm was transformed, and Carolina brought our vision to life is a moment we will never forget. It didn’t stop there, as she was busy behind the scenes ensuring the day went smoothly. Carolina is professional, trustworthy, has impeccable attention to detail and the kindest heart! We would highly recommend her to any engaged couple looking for a planner, or day of coordinator. We are so thankful for Carolina!

dible! She was there with every step. She coordinated the band, food, florist, tent, and every small detail you could think of. My daughter in law was coordinating and working with her, but what I saw was incredible! I looked at her at one point and she was moving tables. She really made the wedding a wonderful experience for all! She will always hold a place in my heart! I would highly recommend to any engaged couple planning a wedding, and would make their wedding an ultimate experience!

VID, then finding out 8 days before our wedding that we could no longer get married at our venue and needing to reschedule to a new venue. She jumped right in and made sure everything happened and it was the most perfect day. Even with all my decor packed up in boxes, she brought my vision to life and the venue looked amazing. Our car was packed and ready for us the next day which made our lives 100 times easier. I cannot imagine how I would’ve made it through everything without her guidance and support. We had the perfect day because she made it happen. If you are thinking of getting a wedding coordinator for full out planning or even just helping on the day of, this is the person you want. I would highly recommend her to everyone.

absolutely fabulous throughout the whole ordeal. She has contacted all my vendors letting them know of changes and seeing when everyone is available which is a huge help!! I am not a very organized person and there truly is a lot when you are planning a wedding. Carolina does an excellent job organizing everything and making sure everyone is on the same page. I really appreciate everything that she has done so far and still continues to do. I highly recommend Carolina!

ng my wedding was I live on the west coast but my wedding was on the east coast. Carolina was basically me on the ground in Delaware county. She did the leg work. She went to venues. Wrote emails. Reached out to people. Helped my mom. Kept me sane. Listened to our ideas. Came up with ideas. And then Covid happened. My fiance and I were devastated. The Wedding was canceled. I honestly given up on trying to plan anything. Carolina came swooping in. She contacted all the vendors and changed dates for everything. All I had to do was sign some contracts. She is beyond amazing and you would be lucky to have her as your wedding planner. I am forever grateful that she helped me plan my beautiful day :)

morable wedding experience, Carolina is your best choice. I have also used her as an interior designer and then was asked to put my home on a Tour of Homes!

needs of 10 plus vendors and keep them happy and on track as well. If you are looking for someone professional, kind and willing to go above and beyond to make your wedding unforgettable,I definitely recommend Carolina Hatton ❤️We love you!

ime and effort to help create our perfect day. She was always readily available to meet or answer questions over text. On the actual day she helped decorate the place while we were getting ready. Any issues with the venue she was on top of it and went above and beyond to resolve the issuea. It helped make the day a lot less stressful, especially because I do not like confrontation. She also created a schedule for the day and distributed to everyone in the bridal party. It made the day go a lot smoother as well as having most of our pictures done before the ceremony so we could enjoy the majority of the cocktail hour! Overall Carolina helped us tremendously on having the month and day a lot less stressful. I'm incredibly grateful to have had her part of our special day and would absolutely recommend her to anybody.

asier with her organization and beautiful set ups for beautiful photos. :) Keep up the good work, Carolina!

n you’re a bride and and considering a million options for your wedding, you not only want to work with someone you trust, you want to be surrounded by people who are loving and patient. Carolina never gets stressed (well maybe she does, but it never shows!!) and she is always there to support and guide you through! If you are getting married or planning a wedding or event, you need this woman by your side!

ecor in the chapel and reception space! Caroline even stayed late the night of our rehearsal to make flower arrangements for each pew. Carolina is organized, dedicated and truly cares for her clients! My husband and I were able to enjoy our day knowing that all the details were taken care of for our BIG day. I highly recommend Carolina for your wedding or event to put you at ease and enjoy your special event.
