LAVISH WEDDINGS

ng date until 2022. But Christine was always there supporting me and helping me get through the difficult time. I'm so glad that we chose Lavish Wedding to be part of the most important day in our lives. They are very experienced, responsive, and highly efficient. Cathlene, who is the lead assistant on our wedding day, took good care of us and stayed until the very end of that day. We want to give her our special thanks too. Our wedding day was exactly as magical and beautiful as we have ever pictured and even beyond! Like a lot of other clients said, Christine and her team have become not only the wedding planners but true friends in our life!

r wedding day. I truly could not have done this without Christine and her team. It all started in 2019 when I realized planning a wedding isn’t so easy. After changing venues a couple of times and locations, Christine was always so professional, flexible, and caring. Anything I wanted she went out of her way to make it happen. She was very quick to respond to my messages and emails no matter how late it was. Christine treated me like her own family member and truly wanted me to have the perfect wedding. After having to postpone a few times due to Covid, Christine was always very supportive and encouraging, and would come up with a plan and have all the details and options to present to my fiancé and I before we could even try and think of a plan B. I could go on and on about everything she did for us. Christine stayed up late hole punching our menus and tying tassels to them, she went out of her way to find an assistant in Mexico during the height of Covid, she was always right behind me fluffing out my wedding dress on the day of, dusting the sand off my feet, fixing my veil, packing my stuff after the wedding, and just helping anyway she could. She even went out with us after the wedding for our after party. Christine not only became my “therapist” during my wedding planning but someone I will call my forever friend. I wish we could have a second wedding because Christine was so amazing!!!

She listened to our unique vision and creatively designed such an immaculate wedding that was beyond what we have ever dreamed about. She recommended the best vendors from florals, makeup, invitations, photography, DJ, caterers, and more. She was incredibly gracious and worked tirelessly when COVID delayed our wedding and found vendors to replace quickly when our venue/date changed. She was always such a calming presence that always offered her time and solutions to any problems that arose. The day of the wedding went smoothly because of their professionalism and close eye for detail. We each had a groom and bridal assistant. My bridal assistant Katey was AMAZING, she made sure I was arriving on time with where I needed to be, had water and food ready, she even had an emergency kit on hand when I had a dress malfunction. We could not have asked for a better team to create such a luxurious experience for ourselves and our wedding guests. We are going to miss the weekly emails and phone calls with Christine, Gabriela, and Nadia. If you want an elevated and unique wedding, Lavish is THE wedding team you never knew you needed until now. Thank you for creating such a spectacular wedding to share our love story with our friends and family!

daughter’s vision to life. Christine and Gabriela professionally planned and executed every aspect with our input and participation and never faltered even when unexpected obstacles surfaced. As an example, we had a contracted vendor cancel unexpectedly two months before the wedding. Lavish-Wed did not flinch and secured a new vendor that was outstanding. In addition to the personalized service throughout fourteen months of planning, they have excellent tools available to clients to assist with organizing ideas, budgets, guest lists, timelines, and more! They offer their collective knowledge and experience and take the necessary time to explain all the details so informed and timely decisions can be made. They made us feel as though our wedding was the only upcoming event they had, which I know is not accurate based upon all their exceptional reviews. If you are considering a wedding planner, Christine and her crew at Lavish Weddings are the team you want handling this most memorable life event.

to work with. I would not have such fond memories of planning and the day itself without Christine and her team being there with us every step of the way. Christine's team took on our numerous date reschedules without any hesitation and kept us calm throughout all of the uncertainty of planning events in 2020. Planning a wedding is definitely stressful, but the Lavish team makes it fun. They think of every possible detail for your wedding day and execute flawlessly. We didn't have to worry about a thing. It allowed us to truly enjoy our wedding day, and take every little detail in. My husband and I finally tied the knot on Sept 4, 2021, and the day was everything we had hoped for and more! They truly brought our vision to life. Since our wedding day, we miss our weekly email and text exchanges with Christine because she was truly that great to work with. Of any wedding vendor to invest in, the Lavish team is an absolute must! We love you Team Lavish! - The Von P's

Lavish exceeded our expectations! They listened to our wants, our vision and provided a listing of venues and restaurants for us to choose from which made things so easy being located in a different state. Unfortunately we had to reschedule our date three times due to COVID. However, each time we rescheduled, Christine was so understanding and would work with all our vendors to get everything rescheduled. I like to be well prepared and have everything organized and ready in advanced. Christine and team would jump on last minute phone calls leading up to the wedding or reply back immediately to all my emails. Sometimes I just needed to run through my to do list and they were more than willing to do so. The day of the wedding I didn’t have to worry about times, what I needed to do etc. Christine and her team did everything for us and we received so many compliments with how beautiful everything was and the professionalism of the team. Hiring Lavish was the best decision we made and we are so thankful for the wonderful team and Christine on making our dream wedding come true.

ble! We had such a positive experience in working with them all from day one. If there was an Oscar for wedding planners it would go with ease to Lavish Weddings!!! I’m so thankful that we were connected, especially as we live in Arizona, so having a team that we could feel comfortable with from a state away - and during a pandemic was crucial. Christine will make your dreams come to life. Her design skills and talent to make your event special and unique to you as a couple is truly evident in each consultation. My mom and I had many meetings with Christine and I always felt she listened whole-heartedly with what our vision was. When I needed a new priest due to having to postpone our first date - Christine immediately had a recommendation - that ended up being her priest from her wedding!!! Father Gary was wondrous- so responsive and dependable. The ceremony was perfect. Christine is unbelievably caring and will always put your goals first. We had an incredible day, a memory for us that we will forever cherish and that is in thanks to Christine and her incredible team. Kathryn, Kate, Amanda - thank you as well for your day of participation in helping to create a seemingly flawless event. I have too many amazing words to share and I must say Lavish is top-notch, the vendors she works with are superb, and they created an unforgettable day/night for us! From the bottom of my heart - THANK YOU!!!!

ng during COVID is no easy task but Christine made it seem effortless. On top of planning during a pandemic, we had a few additional hiccups leading up to the big day. I didn’t have a dress less than 3 months before the wedding, Christine put me at ease and referred me to an amazing designer. The week before the wedding, my husband decided he wanted to rent an exotic car at the last minute and Christine went above and beyond to find him the perfect one. Our wedding was June 2021 and it was executed flawlessly, our friends are still raving about it. We also worked with Lavish Travels for our honeymoon to the Maldives which was spectacular. Don’t look any further, just hire Lavish.

ne was absolutely incredible. We used Lavish for the full service planning, and were in contact with Christine from the very beginning of our engagement. I knew that I wanted a “Christine-planned wedding” as every photo from weddings she has planned were just so above and beyond. She walked us through every step of the way and met with vendors for us. Considering we live across the country, this was SO helpful and kept my stress down during the planning. Even with COVID restrictions, my husband and I were determined that we were still going to have our dream wedding, on the date that we wanted. Even though logistically, a lot had to change, Christine kept our heads up and always had a plan B. For example, we had our first caterer go out of business and the second caterer not able to provide services due to their own covid restrictions. Before telling us the bad news, Christine would already have another option vetted, in our budget, and ready to go. We ended up getting married at my parent’s house - Something I never envisioned could be my dream wedding. Christine. worked. magic. We were shocked at the transformation and what we were able to do! Looking back, it was the perfect venue all along- just needed Christine’s vision. I cannot stress this enough - hire Lavish weddings and Christine to plan your wedding. It will be the best decision you make.

rebook all our vendors and help us through that process. She made planning a pandemic wedding easy! Christine is so helpful and responded to all my needs and requests very timely! We would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a planner!

ent seamlessly and we still receive so many compliments about how beautiful and well-thought-out everything was. The event coordinator at our venue moved on to a new position about a month before our wedding but I never had to worry (even being on the opposite coast) because Christine and team double checked all the contracts and ensured nothing was missed. Throughout the whole process she always professional, organized, responsive, and had great suggestions/advice. My mom was also very impressed by her knowledge of Indian weddings and customs! Can't recommend her enough!

We can't thank them enough. Looking back we feel hiring Lavish weddings was the best thing we did. Christine, Jacob, Gabriella, and Jessica were the best coordinators we could dream of. Our day flowed smoothly and we felt absolutely zero stress on the day of our wedding. The team was there to help with everything. I don't think my train would have been bustled with out their help ;) They are top notch and go above and beyond with customer service.

I’ve heard so many great things about Lavish Weddings so I knew I had to book with them for my wedding and I’m so happy I did :) thank you ladies!

nd decided to bring on a wedding planner. One meeting with Lavish and the rest was history. They handled our design, planning, and coordination. Christine took the time to learn who we were and what our vision was for our special day. She locked in the right vendors and assured us every step of the way. She worked within our budget and created a design that catered to our every wish. Nadia executed final month and day of coordination flawlessly. She kept us on schedule and was very responsive, professional, and courteous 100% of the time. She is highly experienced and it truly showed. Fast forward to our wedding day and seeing my wife shed tears of joy at the ceremony and speechless at the reception solidifed that our decision to go with Lavish Weddings was indeed the right one. Nadia, Laurie, and Katie stuck close by the entire night and ensured we were well taken care of. Christine and her team are absolute sweethearts! They turned our dream into a reality and exceeded all expectations. We've received nothing but, positive feedback from our guests. To the happy couples planning their special day I offer you the same advice given to my wife and I. Your wedding day is YOUR day. Bring on a planner so you can focus on each other. Make it memorable and go with Lavish!

e way. We met Christine in her office and she already had so many of the details worked out. She was conscious of our time and needs while being budget conscious. We walked out of that meeting knowing our event could become a reality. Jacob took the lead after Christine laid down the initial groundwork and blew us away with his attention to detail while caring for everyone’s emotional well-being. Jacob was organized and kept us on track for the big day. We love Jacob! On the day of our wedding my wife and I felt completely prepared. Jacob had everything set up and made sure the execution of the big day was perfect. We are still fondly remembering how everything went. It was the perfect day and there is no way we do it without the professionalism and care that came with partnering with Lavish. We would absolutely work with this amazing team again!

the San Diego area, and can work with your budget to make it happen! They're getting busier every day so jump on them ASAP.

ct) over this past Columbus Day weekend and we were engaged just 7 months prior. Our planning process was only 4.5 months and to add to that, we live across the country and had the challenge of planning a destination wedding. Christine and her team is the reason we were able to make our fairytale wedding possible. I manage events for my professional career so I can confidently note that Lavish Weddings are not just "wedding planners" -they are production experts. Christine's expertise in the Wedding industry is extensive. Her ability to not only address all your concerns but present new ideas and solutions is what makes her stand out from the rest. And when speaking to florists, DJs, venues, etc. not only do they all know Christine, they speak very highly of her. Throughout weekly calls, organized documents, the planning tool & app, and more - Lavish made it possible for us to have the most memorable wedding weekend with our family and friends. We are still reminiscing over all of the well executed detail all the way to the warm memories that we will have for the rest of our lives. Christine is not only a great partner, she's a wonderful person and someone I plan to stay in touch with throughout! To all the brides out there, you will be as thankful as I am to have Lavish by your side!

e full service planning package (which I highly recommend). I was worried about hiring a wedding planner because I wanted the wedding to be my vision and I am kind of high maintenance when it comes to party planning. Booking Lavish Weddings was the BEST decision I made during the planning process. Christine was there for me every step of the way. She truly enhanced my vision and made my dreams come true. She was so responsive and kind throughout. She brought me unique, amazing vendors and helped negotiate the price down on most things. Christine even emailed me the week she had a baby! She is truly dedicated to her business. I cannot express how elated I am with her services. Her team is also amazing, Jacob, Kim, and Katey were so sweet and helpful on the wedding day. I wish I could plan another wedding so I had a reason to keep talking to Christine everyday! Thank you SO much Lavish Weddings for my beautiful wedding! Do yourself a favor and hire them ASAP.

an wedding. We hired her a while before the 6months and she still checked in with me regularly until it was crunch time. She made itineraries for all of the wedding week and planned and coordinated the sangeet, the beachside ceremony, and the reception. She and her team are super fun and easy to work with! I heard from all of our vendors that she's one of the most organized wedding planners and they love working with her. She helped me figure out exactly what I wanted and made it happen while keeping me within budget. She truly went above and beyond! Our wedding would not have been the same without her. Even my parents and guests commented on how flawless it was. Highly recommend! Brooke from Lavish Travels helped us plan our honeymoon in Puglia, southern Italy. It was such a relief to have someone working on making our honeymoon magical while we were amidst the chaos of wedding planning. She worked with us and our preferences so the honeymoon was perfectly tailored to our interests. We loved the hotels and accommodation she booked for us and had a blast on the excursions! She also sent a full itinerary and helpful texts the night before an excursion with the details. We highly recommend Brooke for travel planning!

ed and on track throughout the entire weekend! We could not have had a successful weekend without them!!!

hands. Christine assigned Nadia to be our month of coordinator, and she was honestly wonderful! The service she provided was exceptional. Nadia's attention to detail goes above and beyond what you would expect, and she was assisted by Kimberlee who also ensured everything went according to plan. Although my now husband had doubts in me wanting to hire a wedding planner, Nadia turned him into a believer after that first meeting to discuss the Month of Coordination. No detail was too small for Nadia down to the perfect pen to use for the guest book. Hiring Lavish to be our wedding planner was the best decision we made. Our guests kept telling us everything was so seamless, and that was thanks to Nadia and Kimberlee. If you are currently on the fence about hiring a wedding planner, or if you are unsure of who to choose, trust me when I tell you that Lavish is the way to go. You will be thankful you chose them.

business! Even if you're only doing a month-of and day-of planning, Lavish Weddings is worth every penny. Christine, the owner, was always so sweet, kind, and helpful from the very beginning. Any questions we had, she happily answered, and usually with more information than we actually needed. Our month-of coordinator was Dawn, and we couldn't have been happier that she was our coordinator! She absolutely went above and beyond, even before the actual month coordination. She was always available, whether by email, phone call, or text message, and she would always be responsive and accommodating. She was also very detail oriented, which we appreciated very much. Every aspect of the wedding, down to the minute, was planned out! She worked with all of our vendors to get the necessary paperwork completed and made sure all of them knew the details of the wedding. During the actual day of the wedding, Jacob assisted Dawn with all of the coordination and planning. Jacob was amazing as well! He and Dawn worked really well together to make sure everything went smoothly. He was always checking up on us all throughout the night, bringing us food and drinks, especially coffee and Boba! We literally didn't have to worry about anything at all during our wedding day. They made it so easy and relaxing for us, and we were able to enjoy our big day as much as possible. Christine, Dawn, and Jacob were so awesome. Having Lavish Weddings coordinate and plan our wedding was seriously the best decision we made about the wedding. We could not be any happier how our special day turned out!

hout the whole process whenever we needed assistance or recommendations. Our month of coordinator was Dawn. She was the best coordinator! She was extremely responsive and helpful in every way. She went above and beyond to make sure that we got what we needed to be checked off done. She also initiated to help us even when we didn't ask. On our wedding day, Jacob was assisting us with Dawn. Jacob was also very helpful! He was extremely on top of everything and made sure that we (the bride and groom) were happy and not stressed out. Lavish Wed exceeded our expectations! We couldn't be happier on how things went. Everything went to smoothly on our wedding day! I would definitely recommend this to everyone who is planning a wedding of their dreams!

swered every email and phone call so quickly. When we were a tad bit worried about certain details she was there to reassure us everything would turn out just fine. Nadia was our lead coordinator for the month of the wedding and she was amazing. She ensured all of our many vendors were right on track and everything was going as planned. The wedding day timeline she created was flawless and the whole day was completely stress-free. She was phenomenal and we had the utmost confidence in her! We were so lucky to have her be a part of our wedding planning! Jacob was also one of our lead coordinators for the day of the wedding and he was just as amazing!! He made sure I was taken care of the whole day and made sure we were running on schedule. All the little things (fanning me before I walked down the aisle, his little pep talk, helping ease my nerves by making me laugh, being kind to our family and friends & many other things) he did, meant so much to us. We can’t thank Christine, Nadia, ​and Jacob for everything they did to make sure our Dream Wedding came true!!!

e day, and ultimately, an epic party to end their night with. Lavish Weddings is one of my favorite vendors to work with for a reason!

of possible rain, Christine secured a tent in record time. I highly recommend the partial planning or planning package Lavish offers.

l, and kind. Not to mention, their events are always beautiful. The Lavish team is such a joy to work with and we look forward to many more events together!

nd she was beyond amazing! Planning from another city is not easy and they made everything perfect! The floral vendor they use and decor are fabulous too. I highly recommend using them they will make your wedding perfect!!

al vendors that made our day so special, and took the lead on managing all of the logistics both big and small. When we determined last minute that we did not have the bandwidth for DIY signage, Lavish created the most beautiful signs that truly completed our decor. Christine worked with us to understand our vision, and we appreciated her professionalism and advice (she is also a very sweet person!) Kate at Lavish helped coordinate our Indian wedding celebration, and went out of her way to ensure that it went smoothly and stress-free. And a special shout-out to Annie who took the best care of the bride during the American wedding and reception! Our weekend was beautiful, special, and memorable.

my career and Christine is among the absolute best. She has awesome communication, is extremely personable, and manages to always keep cool (even throughout stressful events). On the backend, she organizes clear and concise timelines and provide the vendors with all of the necessary info to be successful on a wedding day. I *highly* recommend Christine and her team for any event or wedding needs (and she even offers floral boxes too!).

ing journey. From phone calls, to emails, text messages and anything else I needed. They went above and beyond for our big day. When I say Christine could literally bring the moon to you if you wanted it at your wedding, she is just that good. So talented and creative. I loved working with Lavish Weddings.

who is also a Director of Catering at a major resorts, I can see what true talent and passionate commitment look like. Christine gained my trust through her outstanding organizational and design skills, but more importantly, she kept my trust with her gracefulness, positive attitude, and persistent composure. Christine was not only a calming force throughout my planning process, but she also was an excellent advisor and a consummate professional. She helped me design a wedding that I didn't even know was possible! You can't put a monetary value on what she brings to the table- the memories she helped create are priceless. Lavish Weddings helped make every one of my wishes come true. The warmth that Christine, and her assistant Jacob, showed to my family and friends made my wedding day so bubbly and full of love...and all of this was achieved while they kept each detail on point. I would recommend Lavish Weddings to absolutely everyone. "Thank you for a truly FLAWLESS experience Lavish Weddings!"

s worked in my reception venue before (Central Library whose staff is a pain in the rear to get a hold of). Her stellar reviews and her sophisticated but approachable vibe helped me in choosing her. Even though I booked her a year and a half before my wedding, she was very accommodating to all my questions. The vendor list she had was very helpful to me. I booked most of my vendors with that list, which I cross-referenced with reviews from various websites. She also gave me a budget spreadsheet and a timeline, which I also used while I planned my wedding. She was also accommodating to many things, like picking up food for wedding, picking up the equipment for my a capella group (additional cost for gas), and helping with executing my betta fish centerpiece idea come to life. Two months (I think) before my wedding, she met up with me and my husband to see where the planning is at. That's where I met my lead coordinator for the wedding, Nadia Pandes. Nadia was absolutely amazing. I had some family issues before the wedding so I felt super behind on wedding planning. She caught up with everything I need to do. She was on the ball. I thought I was super organized, but she is way on top of things than me. Before OCD that I am, I am happy that Nadia was my coordinator, and I felt more at ease afterwards. She even got Sherwood Hartwell to finally contact her so we could do a walk-through of our wedding reception (San Diego Central Library). She's amazing! On the day of the wedding, Christine and Nadia were on top of everything. There was a sudden change of emcee (my family friend backed out) so Christine tried to tell my friend (the new emcee) on what the reception timeline will be and what my friend's role will be. When I got to the ceremony (Saint Gregory the Great Catholic Church), Nadia was there, and was in communication with the church staff. Even though my guests were late, she was able to pull off everything seamlessly. I didn't know how to seat the family in the church, but for some amazing reason, everybody was where they are supposed to be. I didn't know they did it. Then when we forgot to give the password to my computer to be used for music for cocktail hour, Nadia got a hold of our limo driver. There were a lot of elements in my wedding, and anything could go wrong. But she remained calm, which made me relaxed. I'm sure she's juggling a million things in her head, but she made me feel at ease that she got it. Things were running behind schedule, but she made everything work. She even helped me change into my dancing outfit because my bridesmaids were nowhere to be found. Christine was equally great. My gift card cage was easily accessible so she made sure that all my gift cards were given to my mom or sister right away. She even bought more vodka when we were running out of it. At the end of the night, I saw Nadia working with my caterer (Christie of Coast Catering) to make sure everything is packed up nicely. Either Nadia or Christine made sure that all my betta fishes found a home as well. I would highly, highly recommend them for any event planning needs. I'm super glad that I went with them. If I know anybody who will get married in San Diego, I will definitely say to go with them. They are AMAZING!

d and knows every single thing about a wedding. She's what you call an expert in the wedding business. My wife and I were a long distance couple and I couldn't help my wife as often as I wanted to but Christine was always on top of the game. She made sure that we were always on the same page and used various useful tools to help us be organized. On the day of the wedding, It seemed like there were 3 Christines. Everywhere I went she was always there. She was taking charge of every single aspect of the wedding. I had absolutely no stress and not one detail was forgotten. Our wedding was amazing and beautiful. Exactly what we wanted. Christine is a professional and I would recommend her for anyone looking for a wedding planner. Your vision is her vision and she will make your dream wedding come true. -jastine

ally, I thought we did not need a wedding planner since our venue came with a "petite" planner. As the big day got closer, I found myself stressing over the little details and contacted Christine. From then on, Christine took complete charge of the details and planned everything perfectly. She saved me from so much stress throughout the planning process and on our wedding day. On the day of the wedding, I could not find my robe to take pictures in. Christine rushed to find me the perfect robe within minutes. Just an example of how she went above and beyond in making our day perfect! It was truly a pleasure working with her!

her photo booth. She always checked up on us, helped us find vendors when we felt lost and ALWAYS reminded us of important dates. Christine is very organized and always so patient, especially knowing how much goes into planning a wedding. But I have to say planning our wedding really seemed like a piece of cake with her. On our wedding day, everything went so smooth. Timing went well, nothing was delayed and ceremony/reception were picture perfect. I can honestly say Christine and her team are absolutely the sweetest and we would definitely recommend her services to anyone planning a wedding. If we were to have another celebration, I would book her again in a heartbeat. Thank you again, Christine and the Lavish Team for making our wedding day the one of best days ever. ♥️

he coordination and execution of all of the events with so much grace! She is the ultimate sweetheart and #girlboss. She won our love and trust the moment she joined our wedding! I no longer had to stress about all of the little details being thousands of miles away because I knew she was working her magic to make miracles happen for us behind-the-scenes. Her attention to detail and thoughtfulness in every decision made us grow more fond of her and her work. Christine was able to share our vision so eloquently with our multiple vendors that our weekend ended up exactly as we had imagined it! After the events, we had guests coming up to us telling us how amazing and respectful our wedding coordinator was. We still talk about how wonderful Christine was to work with. We wish the entire Lavish team the absolute best!

town. I’m so glad I️ found her. She and her team are extremely talented! I’m still in shock of how amazing our day went. I️ want to do the day over and over again! If you’re looking for a wedding planner in the California area LOOK NO FURTHER. We love you Christine and thanks again for everything!!!

s. However, christine went above and beyond. She provided the most amazing vendor recommendations and was always so available! She was so knowledgeable of the San Diego wedding scene and was just such a "refresher" for all the crazy decisions you have to make! Christine was even more amazing the day of our wedding. Our wedding was completely flawless and Christine handled everything so perfectly! I felt so "at ease" and was able to enjoy every moment. Her staff were equally as enjoyable and professional to work with! We had such a blast from the start to finish! I can not thank Christine , Lavish enough for truly planning, creating, and helping us live the wedding of our dreams!

e the amount of help she has been. She has been on top of countless details and made things much more simple. It really helps to have someone in your corner, who also wants to have your Wedding turn out to be one of the best days in your life. Literally everyone, from the Venue staff, Family and friends complimented us during the wedding on how everything turned out beautifully. She helped us arrange and make our dream wedding come true. We could not be any happier with the results and highly recommend Lavish Weddings for those planning.

y for us. They took care of everything and were extremely flexible and accommodating. During the wedding weekend, our planner helped us pick a location on the beach and then set everything up with our vendors. We did't have to do anything but show up. They were all so lovely and so easy to work with. I highly recommend their service if you need some assistance planning your big day. Affordable, reliable, and friendly!

tions. When I began planning my wedding I had no idea what I was doing and working with Lavish made everything so easy. They truly cover everything all the little things you don't remember they've got you covered. I couldn't be happier with my planning experience and would highly recommend them to anyone planning a wedding.

edding was worth every penny and more! My husband always tells me how grateful he is that the we hired Christine and her team. Throughout the planning process, Christine helped me with any advice and questions that we had. I was so thankful for her suggestions, opinions and guidance since she has amazing taste! She was also always super quick to answer all my questions! You can tell by working with her that she is excellent in her craft and knows what shes doing, we loved working with her! She is also such a sweet person! Once the month prior our wedding came around, Nadia, our lead coordinator took our wedding planning completely off our hands and OMG, NADIA IS THE BEST!!!! I cannot say enough good things about Nadia. I am the type of person where I need things done right away and am very detailed oriented and Nadia was the best person to work with this. She seriously was our arms, legs, head and everything else throughout the last month. She literally took everything off our hands and we did not feel stressed at all. My husband even said to me "Wow, I thought the last month would be very stressful but we are watching tv and relaxing everyday" and I 100% agreed with him. Nadia displayed the utmost professionalism throughout the entire process, was a friend to us whenever we needed any guidance or help, was SO on top of following up with all our vendors and SO on top of everything else (seriously, it's like she's always there when we needed her and had a question, i wonder if she ever takes a break), ALWAYS had the best attitude and was always smiling which showed us everything was under control. She is the type of person that can work with anyone and very easy to talk to and get along with. On the day of, we also had 2 assistant coordinators, Laurie and Margaret. Laurie was with us from the beginning of the day through the ceremony and she was wonderful! She worked with us to ensure we stayed on our schedule and when we weren't, she adjusted the schedule to make sure we went back on it. Laurie played a significant part for this part of the day. I didn't get a chance to work with Margaret that much as she was helping set up our reception with Nadia while Laurie was with us, but she always had a positive attitude when I saw her, and the reception turned out SO beautiful! I couldn't be more happy to have hired Lavish Weddings as our coordinator as everything was executed with perfection. Our big day couldn't have been perfect without Christine and her team. They did an amazing job and would recommend them to anyone planning a wedding! Thank you Christine, Nadia, Laurie and Margaret!

r (wedding) dreams into reality. With a full schedule, competing priorities, and friends/family who were out of state - the hubby and I decided we needed all the help we could get. We chose Lavish Weddings full service. BEST DECISION EVER - almost as good as getting to say "I do." Christine helped us every step of the way. She created a design board for our wedding (similar to Pinterest) in which we could all add ideas & comments. Sometimes she'd surprise me because I'd add a picture in the middle of the night & within minutes I'd see comments from her, asking if I'd like to add this or that detail. To help create our dream wedding, Christine and her team were able to suggest vendors whose services were within our budget. This helped us immensely, since she was able to do the research for us & provide a list of vendors that met our criteria. never once did we feel pressured to go beyond budget, and honestly, after doing our research we realized that no matter which of the vendors listed we chose, none would be bad choices. (We loved each one we ended up choosing, btw.). Christine kept us organized and on time with a checklist, and by the time our wedding date came, there really wasn't much to stress about! In fact, so many friends and family were impressed at how unstressed we were! If you are looking for a solid wedding planner, easy to reach & work with, organized, patient, creative & able to think out of the box to help make your wedding unique ~ Lavish Weddings is a great team to choose

etely on point. Here are some things that stood out to me in my experience working with her. 1) Versatility- Of the twenty-something planners I looked at the thing that immediately stood out to me about Christine’s work was the variety of styles I saw represented in her pictures. While some planners obviously had a specific “look” they always gave their clients I could see that Christine was an expert in all different kinds of looks. Once Christine and I had talked about my vision she was fantastic at lending her expertise to exactly what I wanted. Christine facilitates your vision- she doesn’t take it over for herself. 2) Dedication to service- I could always count on prompt replies from Christine (phone, email, text). We had numerous conversations leading up to the day talking about the “checklist” and what she needed from me. I never felt like I was lost in the planning or forgetting something important. On the actual day of the wedding Christine and her team went way above and beyond. I came down with food poisoning the morning of and Christine not only found a doctor for me but also shifted the timeline to accommodate my illness (and still get me to the church on time, so to speak!). Once the medicine kicked in I didn’t have to worry about anything and Christine, Lex, and Margaret were as cool as cucumbers. The doctor told me that I couldn’t eat or drink anything but water and Powerade for 24 hours and let me tell you, that Powerade never stopped flowing, thanks to Lex. 3) Creativity- Christine added so many amazing touches to our décor and guest experience that I never would have thought of. Some of my favorites included a red carpet where guests could get their pictures taken (that I have sent out as part of their thank you note), larger than life poppies that adorned our escort table (we had a bit of a Wizard of Oz them going), and a personalized door tag for our guests on the night of our wedding. Christine made the planning process as painless as it could be and had a stellar lineup of vendors to choose from. She is a delight to work with and will help you create the wedding of your dreams. I would recommend her 1000 times over.
