Chantilly Chic Celebrations

nd kindness put us immediately at ease and helped relieve any stress we were feeling. Catie went above and beyond and went the extra mile for us. We were initially on the fence about hiring a coordinator but now looking back at everything, there's no way we could have done this without them. It allowed us to just be in the moment and enjoy our special day, we will be forever grateful to Catie and Brigette! Thank you so much for helping make it the wedding of our dreams and we had a blast working with you!

utely amazing, perfect and a day that we will always remember and cherish. I planned my proposal in St. Pete Beach at the Pass-a-Grille area. This whole proposal planning took about 2-3 months and came out so perfect. The communication with the CCC team was excellent. We had phone calls scheduled to plan out the proposal and if I had any questions or needed to add something to the planning, the team would answer really quick. The whole process was very stress free and easy…just needed to plan this whole vision out with the team, finalize everything, and on the day of the proposal, all I had to do was show up with my fiancée and the ring. The proposal day was executed perfectly. Everything that I asked for was all set up when we got to the site. Asked for pictures, candles and rose petals leading up to the arch that was set up with a flower set, a LED light sign that says “Will you marry me?”, a special rose that was dedicated to my fiancée’s mom/mom that we truly love and miss, champagne bottle and glasses that was gifted to us for celebration, scheduled the perfect timing to propose during sunset time and also the team reaching out to both our families to plan out a meeting time to meet up at the site for when I propose…they came out to surprise my fiancée to celebrate our engagement and she had no idea that they was there. They traveled from Philadelphia, PA to St. Pete, FL to watch our proposal and that was so special. We also love our photographer Arron and videographer James who captured this special moment for us. The pictures and video are absolutely stunning! My fiancée and I were pretty nervous for the photo and video shoot because we never done a professional shoot like that but Arron and James helped guide us and it turned out beautiful, it was like we were naturals doing that kind of stuff. They did an amazing job. We also loved our flowers that were from Jennie’s Flowers St. Petersburg. It was so beautifully set up on the arch, beautiful bouquet for my fiancée and also the rose for mom/mom was super special for us. It was perfect!!! If anyone needs someone to help plan out a proposal, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND contacting Chantilly Chic Celebrations. They are an awesome team to work with! They also do weddings too! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

and perfectionist bride (great combo…) and Melanie was patient, adaptable and has the most impeccable attention to detail. She is the good humored but bada** type A manager everyone needs in their life. She and her team helped me hone in on a vision, and rolled with the punches whenever it changed, all the while managing communication with vendors seamlessly. I was rarely stressed during any part of the wedding planning process. Friends would ask if I was in wedding planning hell, and I was able to reply no solely because of all the work Melanie and her team were doing behind the scenes. The day of the wedding - no hyperbole here - went off without a hitch. Not a single thing went wrong (or if it did, I was shielded from it). The CCC team makes what every bride wants possible - the perfect stress free wedding day. My husband and I were able to be present in our day and focus on all the love around us without being concerned about logistics, and not only that, but our plans, decor, flow, etc. came together like a dream. It was truly the perfect day, and I attribute that to the hard work and professionalism of the CCC team. They truly went above and beyond!

ri take on the role of finalizing details with vendors and putting timelines and agendas and all of the tiny details that we would have never thought of. As stressful as planning a wedding is, Lori helped us so much with everything and we are so grateful. The team is amazing, kind, and they make a huge effort to be aware of the couple they are working with. We’re a same sex couple and I appreciate the advocating they did on our behalf to make sure vendors were using the right pronouns and that we got the wedding day we wanted. We have nothing but good things to say and you should go with them to help plan your wedding.

hat point and she stood out immediately. She was friendly, thoughtful, and took the time to explain the value in the services CCC offered. We booked coordination services and Lori was our lead planner. Lori has an amazing eye for detail, and really helped us stay on track to achieve the vision we wanted for our wedding day. Lori is also an excellent communicator who is proactive, level-headed, and resourceful…exactly what you would want in a wedding planner! She is also really nice and easy to work with, which goes a long way when you feel frazzled from wedding planning. The rehearsal and wedding day went perfectly. I had several members of my wedding party comment how organized and great Lori was. Her assistants were equally nice and prepared. We received a detailed timeline and knew just what to expect on the day of the wedding. Lori also made sure each of our vendors knew the plan and timeline for the day and confirmed all details, big and small, so there were no surprises or hiccups. On our wedding day, we had total confidence in Lori and her team. Thanks to the plan she organized and executed, we were able to just be present and enjoy the beauty of the long-awaited day. I am so happy with my experience working with CCC and Lori, and will sing their praises in the years to come to any friends and family planning a wedding! Book them - you will not regret it!

ess and Lori went above and beyond as our lead planner! Lori was super detail oriented, communicative, and always brought a great positive and calm energy. We received SO many compliments from our other vendors about how great Lori was - a true testament to her organization and communication! Our day flowed seamlessly and everyone (bridal party, vendors, etc) knew exactly where to be and what to do. The team was so helpful throughout the process and very knowledgeable about local vendors, last minute needs, contracts, our venue, etc. We had many small details planned for our wedding and the CCC team executed perfectly. I was able to be fully present and really enjoy our wedding day because I confidently knew Lori and her team were handling everything exactly how I'd want it to be handled! Lori was a true advocate for us and our vision - it's clear they care so much about their couples. Book them and you will not regret it!!

large guest list, intricate and detail oriented plans and ideas. With having over 250 people and a 15 company vendor list. She made this wedding the most easy going experience I could’ve ever wished for. From her confidence in day one that this wedding would go off flawlessly without a hitch to wedding day, I could not recommend her more. She provided everything I needed and handled all of the nitty gritty information with making sure the flow of the day worked with all of the set up needed from the different vendors. This wedding was one for the books and it is all thanks to this company! If you’re looking for a girl who knows her stuff, Melanie is her! I could keep going on about my experience with Mel, and If I could give her 10 stars, I would! Love her and her whole team!

our wedding. I HIGHLY recommend them to plan your weddings!

vendor's set-up and clean-up details, she made our wedding day a breeze. Not to mention she is genuinely such a sweet person and a joy to work with. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you, Crystal!!!

board and bring it to life! Our wedding was absolutely stunning down to all the small details she put in/thought of. We highly recommend booking them for any event planning needs, they will not disappoint!

art. She knows her stuff, and was so instrumental in guiding us through the unknowns of the wedding planning process. Her vendor connections and relationships were so helpful and she made the everything so much easier for us. We felt so comfortable with her steering our ship, and knew we would be taken care of!! She was amazing at making sure every single little detail was accounted for, and ensured that everything went so smoothly on wedding day. We truly felt so wonderful and lucky to have her with us throughout this journey!!

sistant Meg get every bit of credit for us being able to enjoy our wedding day and the 2 months leading up to it. This time period can become so hectic and stressful. Watching all of their hard work behind the scenes makes you realize a professional must be involved in the process! These two were so kind, caring, timely, trustworthy, reliable, etc. We loved every second of working with them!

the area, talked to my friends, wondered if it’s necessary – and I have to tell you, getting a wedding planner is a MUST and Chantilly Chic Celebrations are hands down THE BEST! I am forever grateful I found Melanie! She is an incredible person and a true expert in her field, she is so organized, professional and well-connected and made the wedding planning process incredibly easy. She knew the best vendors and had the best recommendations, and the wedding day was a BREEZE thanks to her and her team. We truly had the wedding of our dreams and we couldn’t have done it without her. THANK YOU MELANIE AND TEAM!!!

was important to us was executed. From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you!

wedding to be. I was initially hesitant on hiring a wedding planner, since our venue provided a wedding coordinator, but I can't imagine not having Catie and Melanie's help. They were so precise and made sure everything was perfect! My sister was our "point of contact" the day of, and she continues to compliment how much they were on top of everything. I honestly don't know what I would do without their help- they are a must! :)

ness and I cannot say enough nice things about them. We hired Melanie for our Day of Coordination and she was beyond WONDERFUL!! She took the reigns from us about 8 weeks out and we did not have to worry about a single thing. She was able to corral all of our vendors and help our vision come to life! She is thorough, her attention to detail is beyond words, and above everything else you can tell she genuinely cares about you and the outcome of your big day. Without her I don't think our day would have gone as smoothly as it did!! We left not only feeling on top of the world but like we gained a new friend in the process :) From the bottom of my heart I cannot thank Melanie and her team enough for all that they did for us to make our dream day as special as it was!

l, creative, fun, on top of it ladies you can get your hands on for the most special day of you life. Melanie and Catie were both the leads with my wedding and seriously they took care of everything…. Like everything! We ended up doing the day of coordinator package which comes with 8WEEKS of their attention and expertise and they’re just perfect in every way. Communication was there and they were able to help wrangle all my ideas and vendors I had for everything to come together so smoothly. They have charisma and charm and will make you feel on top of the world the entire way through! I can only wish that everyone in this world can have the experience I did with them!!

. Lori did SO much in the two months she worked with us. We could not imagine our day without her and her team. My wedding week was stress-free and that is 100% thanks to these ladies!!

gn. I couldn't imagine going through wedding planning without her. My mom and I looked forward to the monthly meetings with her. Chantilly Chic Celebrations helped me coordinate my dream wedding! My wedding was almost a year ago and when I look back I have the biggest smile on my face. Melanie is very professional and will help you stay organized but also super fun! She will stay focused on what is important to you as a bride and groom for your special day. If you are in doubt please book Chantilly Chic celebrations for your next wedding!!!

Everything flowed so smoothly thanks to CCCs help. They truly think of everything… Having their help allowed me to sit back and enjoy my wedding week, knowing everything was being cared for. We got to truly be present on our wedding day - I didn’t lift a finger and it all turned out exactly as I had envisioned. CCC is amazing- if you pursue their services, you will not be disappointed!!

eryone to coordinate everything for me. Lori kept me calm when I was feeling overwhelmed with everything that a wedding consisted of. She was extremely detailed and asked questions you would never think of. She was on top of everything single detail big and small. She checked my orders to make sure everything was correct from the amount of table lines to the amount of flowers that needed to be there. She was extremely organized and gave me to do lists at some of our meetings. Having a coordinator was the best decision I made. I could not have asked for a better wedding day. Every single person was so helpful. Melanie at the church ready to keep me from crying To Lori absolutely crushing it and making my dreams come true. You guys are the BEST!!

top of everything. We really didn’t have to do anything once she took over because she had it handled. Her communication is fantastic. We never had to chase her for information and she always got back to us within a day or two (usually just a day was our experience). She created *very* detailed timelines for each vendor, the groom’s party, and the bridal party that allowed everything to flow so smoothly the day of our wedding. To be frank, if you’re looking for coordinators, stop your search right here because you will not be disappointed with CCC (especially Lori!).

ssigned to me as my day of coordinator. When I say I am an organized person...haha I was proven completely wrong. Lori CRUSHED it, just wow. Everything was beyond organized, all the venders knew exactly what to do and where to be along with everyone in the bridal party. Every single person in my party commented how this was the most smooth wedding they have ever been a part of. We had no problems, if we did, I didn't even know about it. Because of this my family, spouse and guests had the most PERFECT day. I cannot recommend Chantilly Chic enough!

on our overall morale. Nevertheless, Melanie's optimism kept us motivated and excited about our wedding. Not only was she responsive, she was also very empathetic towards our circumstances and had our best interests in mind with every move she made. Her preferred vendors are also very reflective of her character because they were all a joy to work with. Most importantly, she is super down to earth and on top of EVERYTHING (even our guests commented on this)! Thanks to her and the CCC team, we were able to have the wedding we have dreamed of and more in late 2021. Overall, we have nothing but positive things to say about Melanie and her team, and would highly recommend CCC's services!

y the wedding twice and they coordinated with all our vendors to get everything rescheduled. When it was actually time to get married, Chantilly Chic went above and beyond. Chantilly Chic, and especially Lori, were fantastic! Being a same-sex couple, they understood our needs were a little different than a heterosexual couple and made us feel very welcomed and included. Lori spent the time to listen to our ideas, take meticulous notes, and come up with detailed agendas. She was very communicative to us, and was flexible when we needed it. She listened to our vision, and executed on it flawlessly so the day of the wedding was not stressful at all! We can’t imagine having our wedding without Lori.

ble from start to finish! She was so on top of everything and ensured that no details were missed! I contemplated for a long time if it was worth it to hire a day-of coordinator. If that is you and you are back and forth on whether or not to spend the money, DO IT! Lori and the CCC team was worth every penny and more! I was able to enjoy my wedding without stressing the details because I knew I could trust Lori to ensure everything came together according to plan! Lori and the CCC team, thank you SO much for making my wedding a dream come true!

r with my wedding venue and had lots of great suggestions I incorporated on my wedding day. I highly recommend the ladies at Chantilly Chic Celebrations.

s searching for a planner in the Tampa Bay Area I met with Melanie and immediately knew she was eager to execute our vision. And that she did! My wedding felt like a fairytale. I was able to enjoy our wedding because I deeply trusted Melanie to execute: she provided each member of the bridal party and vendor a personalized day of timeline! I knew nothing would be missed or forgotten. But most importantly, we found a friend in Melanie! I’m sad our constant emails will be no longer but I can’t wait to sit back and watch how many more lives she and her team touches ❤️ If you are in the market for a planner, I urge you to reach out and consult with this team. I promise you’ll be so glad you did!

ie’s (the Owner) experience and excitement won me over. We went with the full planning package and I thank God I did! I received questionnaires so we could prioritize our budget, as well as book certain vendors first. She set me up with an amazing team of vendors, kept us organized, on time, and on budget. Honestly, even if I didn’t do anything, she would’ve made my wedding perfect all by herself! Everyone tells you on your wedding day to expect a couple things to go wrong. That was not true for me, everything went perfect! Melanie, her team, her itinerary, communication, and hard work made everything run smoothly. Plus my husband said there was never a time where a drink wasn’t in his hand! We received so many many compliments and all I can do is direct them to Chantilly Chic and Melanie. She took my vision and made it 10x better than I ever could have. I would recommend her to any and everyone! Thank you Chantilly Chic, you made my favorite day even more perfect than I dreamed.

dinating all of my vendors for all things day-of, and when it came time to "let go" and stop worrying about my own wedding, I was SO happy I had her to take care of the last minute details and coordination! Melanie and her team are trustworthy and total experts at all things wedding planning!!! :)

tion skills were way above what I expected. They made sure that EVERYTHING ran smoothly and it DID. This was our second wedding in 9 months (2 daughters) and even though she did not due our previous wedding (which I HIGHLY regret not hiring her for that) she made sure that everything with this wedding went up and beyond our expectations. Her eye to details, layout and style is outstanding. You can't go wrong with hiring Melanie from Chantilly Chic. You will be amazed at her professionalism and the best part of it all is she is a hoot to have around. Funny and not stuffy... You will love her...

oney on a wedding day that you don’t get to enjoy cause you are busy trying to be your own wedding planner. To sum it up, Melanie and Crystal are as caring and kind as your mom, as supportive and reassuring as your sister and as helpful and considerate as your best friend. These ladies have YOUR best interests in mind when helping you plan for your wedding day. They are extremely quick to answer all of my phone calls, texts and emails. As soon as a crisis hit, they were there to help me out and keep me calm. Lets face it, wedding planning sucks, but these ladies make it so easy and fun. They have incredible opinions and are exceptionally qualified. They know what works and what doesn’t work. They are there to offer their opinions and help you but always allow you to make all of the decisions since its YOUR day! Crystal was seriously exactly what I needed as a wedding planner. I know my wedding would have never been as amazing as it was if she wasn't the wedding planner. She always allowed me to chose each option and always gave me different options! As for the day of, Crystal kept the show running so nicely behind the scenes! She made sure everything ran so smoothly from the second it started till the second it ended. We were on time for everything and not a thing went wrong!!! Soooo stress free!!!! I got so many props on how incredibly organized and efficient the wedding was. She was there early and stayed late to help clean up. It was everything I could have ever asked for and more! She took my dream and made it a reality. She made my wedding day SO STRESS FREE! And at the end of the day, that is the most important thing…for you to enjoy your day and that is something you can’t put a price tag on. So just spend the money and hire CCC….you won’t be disappointed!!!

assle-free and my actual wedding day was perfect. I've truly never had a better day in my life and I know a huge part of it was because Melanie kept everything running smoothly behind the scenes. She has a wonderful, friendly, cheerful personality and she's very organized which is UBER important. I would definitely recommend hiring her for your wedding. You won't regret it!

ng, super detailed oriented and had this amazing calming effect so I was never a stressed out bride. I can’t thank CCC for letting my Pinterest board come to life. If you haven’t booked a day of coordinator, I highly recommend going with them.

ndors who fit our aesthetic and vibe for our wedding who perfectly matched our vision and personalities. Everyone she recommended was perfect. But most importantly she was perfect!! Her and her staff made sure our wedding day was flawless even during COVID-19. She was able to take our vision and provide a design that we envisioned in our minds. She even had ideas we didn’t think of or knew were possible. Melanie was always there to answer questions and provide her thoughts so we were able to get our dream destination wedding. Being a destination couple it was crucial to have a wedding planner who is trustworthy and reliable. She was all that and more. Every vendor loves her and we do too. She quickly went from wedding planner to friend and I couldn’t have planned the wedding with out her! She is classy, sassy, and a boss. Hire her if you want your wedding to be everything you want and more.

rns and handled them with care and even offered wonderful suggestions that made everything ever the more beautiful! Also, if you are looking for a planner that will partner with other vendors (venue, florist, photo, etc..) and ALSO stand up for your wishes with them you won't do any better. They help from the very beginning and set the perfect agenda/wedding day itinerary and make sure everything runs smoothly. They genuinely cared about every aspect of our special day and it showed in everything that they did. They were so much fun to work with and made everything SO EASY! Those are the 2 things I really want to stress in this review. Along with the obvious nerves of getting married the wedding presented its own to us and Chantilly Chic handled them all with perfection. You won't find a better team that will go the distance for you in anything that you ask! Thank you so very much for our special day!

ere ONE MONTH out from the wedding. They kicked it into high gear for us to really make our day perfect and special. I can't recommend them enough. Pro tip: hire them from the beginning!

e difference in the world. As an event planner myself I was a bit nervous about selecting a day of coordinator and I simply could NOT have made a better choice. The day was flawless and I could not asked for a better set of people to have my back. They’re truly in your corner throughout the process and it was so comforting - especially in 2020 where everything is a hot mess LOL. I need to mention their extra attention to details regarding Covid, and their patience as we had to first postpone our wedding for seven months and then later we cut from 200 people to a micro wedding of just 50 people and they helped us make changes to seating charts, order custom hand sanitizers, rearrange tables, etc. all to help provide guests with an extra comfort level and enhanced health + safety measures. We could not be more grateful. Do yourself a favor, stop scrolling through reviews and just hire them - you’ll be so grateful you did.

ely flawless. She executed everything perfectly and took care of our wedding with such personal attention to detail and preferences. She is so efficient, kind, and professional. I had the most wonderful day— stressfree, memorable, and perfect. I could not recommend working with CCC more!!! They are miracle workers and I am thrilled that we chose CCC for our wedding!! Shoutout Sydney— you are a ROCKSTAR!! Melanie— thank you for your guidance and constant support, you’re incredible!! Do yourself a favor and hire CCC as soon as possible- you won’t regret it!

kage, but she made recommendations for vendors and checked in with us throughout the process, to make sure we were on track. Crystal, our day-of coordinator, was a delight. Eight weeks out, she took over as point of contact, and made sure vendors were staying on track. The day of the event, she made sure everything ran smoothly, and she handled all the last-minute changes that came up with no fuss. We were very happy working with Chantilly Chic, and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to hire a wedding planner.

not even thought about. They also had a bunch of recommendations for other vendors to work with while we were planning from afar. On the actual wedding day, Sydney made the process run seamlessly. I assume she fixed things that didn't go as planned, but she was so stealthy and on top of it, I never heard about any issues. Chantilly Chic is the dream team you need for your wedding!
