I had the absolute best experience working with Cherisa and Johana as my wedding planners! We started working together about 10 months before my wedding, and from the very beginnin...
g, they kept me organized and on track. They created a detailed Excel spreadsheet that worked like a monthly to-do list, and they met with me weekly to make sure every task was completed on time.
They went above and beyond by designing a beautiful décor PowerPoint for me to share with vendors, which made it so much easier to get exactly what I envisioned. They also helped connect me with amazing vendors for everything I needed—from my dress to the cake to the dance floor. On top of that, they created floor plans and layouts for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception so I could truly picture how everything would come together.
What really stood out was how supportive they were in every step of the process. They attended vendor meetings with me, advocated for my needs, and made sure I stayed within budget. They even reviewed all of my contracts before I signed to make sure everything was correct and fair.
Cherisa and Johana are an incredible team—professional, supportive, organized, and so easy to work with. I could not have asked for a better planning experience, and I would highly recommend them to any bride or groom looking for wedding planners who genuinely care and deliver amazing results!
