TLDR: Hands down, my wedding would not have been possible without Crystal and her assistant Dana! I hired her services for the day of/month of coordination, and they could’ve charg...ed triple what they did and I would’ve paid it in a second! Every single bride needs Crystal Rose Events, and trust me they would be in the best hands possible!
Long Summary:
I don’t even know where to start with Crystal Rose Events, because I’m still in shock and I could cry tears of joy just thinking about how helpful Crystal Rose Events was on my wedding day, which happened six days ago!
My husband and I had a very intimate, 30 guest wedding in a rented 10,000 square-foot villa in the mountains of Malibu, and even as a busy resident physician, I wanted to plan the entire thing myself to give that personal touch! I am someone who rarely gives up control of a situation and wants to do everything, so I knew that I didn’t need a full service planner for the wedding!
About three months prior to the wedding, I interviewed probably 4 to 5 different coordinators based in LA for the wedding, and I was so disappointed because the others were upcharging about $5-10k just to coordinate on the day of or the month of!! One coordinator based out of the OC was trying to advocate for her high price point and said that I should be the bride and not have to worry about picking a food vendor or a florist, and they already had a list of vendors that they could choose from. While I understand their perspective, this is certainly not what I was asking for, and to me, that did not justify that high price tag.
Then, in between seeing patients in the hospital and even missing the appointment with Crystal and she was so gracious to make time in the next hour to meet with me again, I met Crystal over zoom and I knew instantly that my gut was telling me that she was the one that would be able to fully execute my vision for my wedding on the day of!! she was so professional, warm, and she outlined how she would help me stay organized the months prior to the wedding, and fully execute everything that I wanted on the day of.
Let me tell you, the chaos that I left in the kitchen and the ceremony area for Crystal to clean up was completely gone when I walked out and my wedding dress in full hair and make up. I looked around and I was in awe because everything that I thought of in my head of how I wanted to go into fruition and I’m still in shock and disbelief.Throughout the entire day, she and her assistant make sure that the entire wedding was on time, organized, and she was like a magician, making things happen out of thin air 🥹
With three simple words that Crystal told me and my husband of, “I got you”, she truly lives up to that and more!! Also, Crystal graduated with a degree in psychology from the best undergrad and is on track to becoming a licensed therapist on top of everything that she is doing for this company, so that probably makes sense that you’re not only getting coordinator planner but also a therapist 🤩 is so wonderful and much much needed!!!
She completely deserves all of the love and respect that I can give, and I truly cannot emphasize this enough that I do not say this about many people or vendors. I hope all the brides out there can experience the services that Crystal and her team provides without breaking the bank and knowing that you’re truly getting the value of every little thing that she’s doing.
