preciated how she listened and communicated with us, while providing her own input. She was so flexible and open to ideas, and made a point to be on time with her deadlines. From our hand painted save the dates to our sailboat guest table cards, Carolyn worked tirelessly and thoughtfully to make sure our wedding day was so special. Carolyn never hesitated to set up a call or send us a draft of what she was thinking. Her detailed plan for each item we were asking for made the whole process seamless. We will continue to recommend Carolyn and Designed by the C to our friends and family for years to come and cannot wait to continue working with her in the future!
