Lorin was amazing to work with! Very thoughtful and kept me organized as a DIY Bride. I really appreciated her and her team for helping my vision come to be. There were things that...
went wrong on the day of with vendors that pushed us back almost an hour and she handled it like the pro she is. She even helped me after the wedding when I was discussing these issues with vendors. I have already recommended her to a friend.
Like I said, I was a DIY Bride so I really needed someone to help with setup/take down of decor and helping me iron out details. Lorin did that and then some. There was even a decor item that my uncle set up, but forgot to take down, that her team said they could take down for me.
Finally, I want to highlight the moral support Lorin provided. Like I said, things went wrong at the wedding that made it impossible to do key activities I had planned. Lorin and her team encouraged me during the event and when I was over it, suggested that I still end my night with the planned send-off. It went amazing and the pictures were gorgeous.
Lorin made an already happy occasion a beautiful dream. My niece and I gave her the vision we wanted for the wedding and she made it happen. I chose the flowers we wanted to use...
. She did the rest. From the tablecloths, table settings, decorations, she created a vision. I would describe the look achieved was a "romantic dream". The table decorations for the guest, the bridal party, and especially the bride and groom were breathtaking. The colors used were black and white with a touch of pink and mauve.
Also, she completely handled the seating chart arrangement which was a major undertaking.
Everything done by Lorin's expertise took away my anxiety level for that day and made it stress free and very memorable.
I would highly recommend her if you want a professional who will follow through with your vision for your wedding.
COVID-19 hit 6 weeks before our wedding, so we did not get to use Carter Creations for our reception. But we had a great experience planning our vision for our reception with Lorin...
. Later in the year we had a small intimate dinner celebrating our marriage and she definitely brought my vision to life!! It was a beautiful experience and we can not wait to use Carter Creations for our next event!!

her hands…and she did not disappoint! Our reception was absolutely beautiful!! We still get compliments to this day! Thank you again Lorin!
I contacted Lorin in mid 2018 to help me plan a surprise party for my wife. Once I secured a venue, I sent her pictures of the room, provided the dimensions of the tables, the num...
ber of guests, and a few of my wife's favorite colors. I gave her free reign to do as she wished, and I was not disappointed. When I took the blind fold off of my wife and she saw the room, she burst into tears of joy!
Working with Lorin was extremely easy. I really appreciate her level of professionalism and regular contact to make sure everything is just so. She is our 'go-to' for events and highly recommend her services.
