CocoLuna Events

ng planners. We chose Courtney because she 1) was the most responsive, 2) was so genuine and kind, 3) had a sense of humor, 4) had planned many weddings at our venue, 5) has a separate event company w her husband that rents lighting, bars, and other event things, and 6) we just clicked with her right off the bat. Courtney was a good listener -- she asked us a lot about our vision for the wedding, including really helpful questions that showed she knew what she was talking about, and she really listened and digested everything that we said. We hired Courtney for design and day of planning for our welcome party and wedding day-- but she treated us like a full service wedding planner for the entire year leading up to our wedding. She was happy to text, call, or Zoom whenever we wanted to. She was incredibly proactive in giving us to-do lists with ample time for us to work through them. She brings a calming and positive energy that was really necessary during our sometimes stressful conversations. Courtney also respected our budget and was not even a little bit pushy in trying to convince us to spend beyond it, even though it would have obviously benefited her for us to spend more money. After we had a design meeting and sent Courtney our inspo photos, she got to work and her design proposal exceeded our expectations and showed that she really listened to every single detail we'd mentioned. I am super picky and particular and loved everything. We'd finalized our design plans for the welcome party and wedding in June, 6 months before the wedding! In July, we heard unfortunate news about a major construction project that was happening at our venue and would impact the locations of our welcome party and ceremony. Courtney sprung into action, drove to meet us at the resort a few days later, and was an advocate for us to the venue staff in making sure that the venue did everything in their power to make it right for us. This was NOT an easy process as the venue was difficult, but we ultimately came to a resolution that we were all happy about and Courtney went above and beyond to make it happen and to make us comfortable with the changes. Then, Hurricane Ian hit two months before our wedding and destroyed our venue and also hit Courtney's home - she was without power and water for a long time. Even so, Courtney called me 2 days post-Hurricane to present us with venue options for Plan B and did everything she could to put us at ease and let us know she'd do everything in her power to make the wedding happen on December 10 and have it go wonderfully. 1.5 weeks later, she drove several hours to meet us in Palm Beach despite what she had going on at home to tour venues until we found the one. Long story short, despite never having been to our Plan B venue before, and having only 2 months to reconfigure everything, Courtney DELIVERED and threw us the wedding of our DREAMS. I seriously cannot express how incredible every single thing was - I was BLOWN AWAY by the design and by Courtney's exceptional service all weekend. She was so attentive, anticipated our needs, and prioritized US having the best weekend of our lives. I am an EXTREME micromanager and no detail was missed. Our wedding was not an easy one to plan for several reasons, but Courtney made it happen.

e best experience for each of her clients. When I tell you she was RUNNING on my wedding day, I’m not exaggerating. Mother Nature literally rained in my parade and forced me to move my outdoor reception inside, she she still pulled everything off making it look and feel incredible. She also helped me keep me calm when I was freaking out about the rain, and I’m so glad that she was there to support me on this important day!! Highly recommend Courtney and the whole CocoLuna and Luna C.E. Crew, a million stars would use her again!

ssional, smart, funny, helpful, caring, responsive, reliable, patient and great to be around. What I really like about Courtney is that she does monthly check-ins with you leading up to the event. Each month she gives you goals and fun homework to complete so the wedding day goes smoother. She is also available 24/7 to help with questions and ideas - an incredible feature!! I would talk her ear off and drill her with questions the weeks leading up to the event, and she didnt mind at all. In fact...she was always excited to hear from me. That's what I was looking for in a wedding planner. Courney is creative when it comes to ideas. Planning with her is so fun because she has suggestions that one would never have thought of. I loveee that!! Courtney stands out from other planners because she can think on her feet and is helpful with making people feel comfortable. I will really miss spending time with Courtney and will always remember her. Thank you for everything, Caitlin Vitale

njoyable! She is so professional and a great person!

f coordinating. From the moment we spoke on the phone to see if we were a good match for both parties I knew I wanted her services. She was diplomatic and assertive as needed and also made us feel every decision we made was what we wanted and not what is expected or a norm. Even at the rehearsal when we made last minute small detail changes she encouraged us, on whatever it was we wanted. I felt so carefree the day of knowing that she was managing it all and the day was so perfect I would repeat it 10000x again without a change. I wish I could give her 10 stars. Worth every penny of investment.

organized and detailed starting with our first meeting. She took time to get to know us, to fully understand my vision for the wedding day and executed every single detail - especially during these difficult times. Courtney will create your DREAM wedding day. Very thankful for her and highly recommend CocoLuna Events.

opposite coast of our venue, she was able to put us in touch with vendors who all ended up being a perfect fit for what we were looking for. On the day of the wedding, Courtney was an absolute superstar, and it ended up being the perfect event and both my husband and myself felt completely taken care of. Courtney is top notch!

planning process. I have never really "dreamt" of my wedding day, but that didn't stop Courtney at CocoLuna Events from planning the wedding of my dreams (in my budget!), which takes some serious skill and talent. Working with Courtney is a wonderful experience. She's upbeat and personable, but she's also very good at coming up with design ideas based on the couple's personalities and budgets. She recommended top notch vendors to us based on our general style and taste, and every single one of them knocked it out of the park. She's also super organized and detail oriented, thinking of things that I'd have missed entirely. As far as I know, the day went off without a hitch. I'm sure there were some snafus but my husband and I never heard about them. Our wedding was way beyond our expectations. She's just phenomenal. I can't recommend her enough.

has very specific things in mind. Courtney managed to meet or exceed every single one. It was a magical wedding because of Courtney. And let me not forget to say that my daughter researched wedding planners very thoroughly and decided on Courtney. Thank you, CocoLuna, and especially Courtney. What a truly wonderful day you managed. All the love. 100% recommend. 💗

our final things from her today, I’m actually going to go through Courtney withdrawals not having this amazing human to manage a huge part of my life moving forward. Future brides - she and her team are well worth the time, money, and trust. We worked with a modest budget, with a Bohemian vision, and despite the day being rained out, it went flawlessly thanks to Courtney’s innovation, foresight, and inner design genius. Note! She also has forged amazing relationships with vendors in the area whom she partners with really well to help make dreams come true. She will forever be a hero and a wizard of our wedding story. She literally thought of everything you guys.

f. I never have to worry about things being done on time as the wedding date approaches. She is professional, yet friendly, and puts brides at ease. An important balance to help couples fill dreams and visions .

questions we never considered - what the last song of the night should be, how to fold napkins to incorporate a menu, who is taking home leftover wedding cake. Would I have known that my church wasn't providing candles for the Unity ceremony without Courtney? Absolutely not. She saved the day by spotting potential problems before they happened. She always had creative options for minor roadblocks (like how to get into the church without being seen) and would outline the pro's and con's of different choices that we were empowered to make. She's also a brilliant stylist who took the minimal decor I provided and made it look better than I could have imagined. The insanely detailed timeline she helped us create was invaluable and reflected her many years of experience - it felt like we pulled off a minor miracle, staying exactly to the schedule, which had everything flowing at an easy, natural pace. She gets 100% of the credit for creating the perfect day! We love her!

r to my wedding, and the entire process was extremely organized. She made sure that I didn't not have to stress or worry about anything - she took care of it all. Any little changes that were made, even last minute, she made sure that I knew about any changes in cost/budget. Overall, planning my wedding with Courtney was a blast and I am so sad that it's over! HUGE THANK YOU to Courtney, you are amazing!!

ation wedding felt like it would be a daunting task, so I knew I'd want the help of a wedding planner and/or day-of-coordinator. CocoLuna had a perfect package for what we were looking for, from design planning to day-of-coordination, and we could not have been more excited to work with Courtney. She will GET THE JOB DONE and will keep you as stress free as can be :). Had such a blast working together and would recommend her to anyone! - Jackie

rienced wedding planners in the area, Courtney Armen with Cocoluna Events clearly stood out as the elite option. She is very personable, likable, organized and fun. My fiance was so impressed by her, he called her the "quarterback" of our wedding. From day one that's what she was, a true leader. We knew exactly what to expect because she made it clear to us what was required of us and what she would manage. She connected us with wonderful vendors, took care of organizational questions--- just ran the whole show flawlessly. Courtney is not only a great planner, but she is also very artsy and often provided advice on many of our design options. She is also extremely accessible---phone, email, text--- just always available and helpful throughout the entire planning process. Overall, it was a bliss working with her! Her passion for her business translates into a fantastic experience for any bride and groom. We highly recommend Courtney and Cocoluna Events!

the phone & ONE simple question… My response became the premise that created & ultimately became my wedding were 2 simple statements: romantically simplistic & simplistically romantic. Courtney understands that the ability to perceive a person’s insight is through tone, word usage/choice, & overall expression that facilitates her to fully see vision, inspiration, & ultimately hopes & wishes. Definition of Courtney Armen (Owner of CocoLuna Events): (co-co -loo-nah): utmost professionalism; unwavering equanimity and unequivocal pragmatism that never ceased or abated throughout

married in south Florida I highly recommend Cocoluna events! Courtney is extremely detailed oriented and one of the most organized professionals I have worked with: She suggested and coordinated the best vendors in SW Florida, created detailed timelines for tasks up to the day of the wedding and created detailed itenary for the day of the wedding for all of our vendors, maids, and grooms to follow. I got married at a country club that has their own events person but I knew Courtney would make sure everything was more then perfect! I loved that she came to the house a few days prior to the wedding to pick up all the items and decorations (7-8 boxes) so she could be responsible for all the items and setting up the space exactly how we dicussed. Then after the wedding she boxed everything up and dropped off all the decorations to my parents house so no one in my family had to bother with it at the end of the night and everyone could just enjoy the evening. I live in California so Courtney and I had to have our meetings remotely and she still managed to execute exactly what we wanted and more! On the day of the wedding, the best part was we (me, my husband and family/friends) were able to actually relax and enjoy the entire day because Courtney had everything taken care of behind the scenes. Thank you, Courtney!

h-of coordination. Courtney not only made my vision/dream a reality but also made our big day worry-free! So many of our guests say the event was "flawless" and "perfect". CocoLuna deserves all the credit! Thank you, Courtney!
