Olive & Ivory Event Design

the place and I began to trust her for everything else. I took her advice on basically all vendors she recommended, everyone was amazing and spoke so highly of Christine. 11 days before our wedding we made the terrible decision to post pone the wedding due to COVID.. it was so incredibly upsetting but Christine made it all okay and we soldiered on another year. I am so thankful that I was able to finally have the wedding we had planned and envisioned a year later. It was not only worth the wait but gave me another year to be able to have Christine as my most amazing wedding planner. There is not a thing Christine does not think of or have ready to go. Your calmness and professionalism is beyond! I will miss you dearly but maybe we need to plan ANOTHER celebration just to keep you close!

or: clear, concise, accurate, and timely— all of which made it easy to trust that she would do everything we needed to problem solve for us on our wedding day as needed. During our rehearsal and on our wedding day she was prepared and the perfect balance of sweet and assertive- so all our guests and wedding party really liked her but also were clear she was to be listened to. If we had it to do all over again we would have hired Christine to plan the whole wedding, not just the day of and would highly recommend her to anyone!!

us times, I knew choosing her was the right call. And I was not wrong - she is organized, follow ups with you & others timely, and is very knowledgeable about the industry. She helped answer any wedding related question I had throughout the process. Most importantly, hiring Christine helped me with doing the wedding details that I didn’t think could be hard - like flowers or reception layout. There’s so much that goes into a wedding that you don’t quite understand until you plan one and having a wedding planner like Christine was crucial to helping make the wedding perfect. On the day of my wedding, we had to completely change the reception from all outside to an inside/outside terrace due to the weather. Rather than be worried about how it turned out, I had Christine take charge and she made it even more beautiful than I could imagine. I’m so happy I hired her and definitely recommend for anyone looking for help on their big day!

lanning. I decided to hire Christine for her partial planning package, and it was absolutely and hands down the BEST decision I made during our planning process, and the BEST investment I made overall in our big day. First of all, she is a lovely human and truly passionate about what she does. Christine is so professional and is a great communicator. She responds to emails and texts very promptly and gives excellent input on every aspect of the planning process. Every single vendor she recommended was above and beyond wonderful. She has many contacts in the industry and it is apparent that she is very well respected by these vendors. Most importantly, I felt calm and present in the days leading up to our wedding, and on our wedding day. Christine handled everything with such professionalism, and at the same time radiated joy in sharing our special day with us. All of our vendors RAVED about Christine, my family were complimenting her all day (still are), and even my somewhat (initially) skeptical husband could not stop complimenting her work. Overall, I felt supported, present, calm, and was able to soak in the most perfect day because of Christine's hard work and passion for what she does. I would hire her again and again if I could!!! We cannot thank her enough for making our wedding such a beautiful, memorable day.

ng my big day saying how I was a very stress free bride, I owe that all to Christine!! I was able to enjoy the day, talk to all our guests, get all the photos we wanted and stick to our timeline. I could not have imagined how many small details go into a wedding and Christine helped me manage them all. The night before our wedding we realized we didn't have the unity candles for our ceremony and she took it upon herself to get them for us without missing a beat. Our wedding parties, photography team, bakery, DJ and venue raved about getting to work with Christine and even said their days leading up to the wedding and the big day were a breeze because of her. I do not have enough good words to say. She took care of us like she was our longest friend and took care of business like the boss woman she is :) You will not regret hiring Olive & Ivory Event Design.

and vendor recommendations were crucial. We are thrilled with how smoothly our wedding day went. We were able to enjoy it, and have Christine to thank for that! She made sure everything was perfect and we didn't have to worry about a thing. My only regret is not hiring her for full planning services instead of partial, so if your budget allows, learn from me! Every bride needs a Christine.

extremely organized and communicated with us throughout the entire planning process. She would also check in just to see how we were doing and asked if we needed anything. She also kept us informed of things we needed to do along the way. Christine ran our wedding and ensured everything was on time. Every detail was simply amazing all because of Christine. She also checked in after the wedding to see how married life is. Christine is a true professional and a genuine person with a big heart. We thank you so much.

cally begin she would still check in and give advice if needed. Once it came down to gather the details so was so organized. AND especially helpful when communicating with the vendors before and during event. The Day-of timeline packet she puts together is a life saver. Highly recommend!

n helped me find my venue! Our wedding day was absolutely perfect. Everything went smoothly and I didn’t have to worry about a thing. All thanks to her! She’s super sweet, professional, experienced, organized, extremely detailed and great at communication. I highly recommend!

all, Christine was constantly checking in seeing how we were doing and giving us reminders of things that we should be doing that week. Our wedding was 100% stress-free and seamless due to her. She is organized, kind, and just all around awesome. She also received compliments on her organization from the wedding party and other guests.I would highly recommend her for help with you event!

was extremely respectful and accommodating of our requests/wishes, but she also provided her professional advice to help make our wedding day run smoothly. Christine worked with our vendors to ensure everyone was at the right place at the right time. Our wedding day would not have been as seamless, nor as enjoyable, without Christine! Thank you, Olive & Ivory Events!

t know what I would’ve done without her. She is incredibly thorough, attentive, organized, and passionate about what she does. My wedding day ran so smoothly thanks to Christine! She was so attentive to me throughout the day and she always knew what I needed even before I knew! She’s two steps ahead of everyone, which is exactly what a bride needs on their wedding day. My parents and husband made several comments about how amazing she was and how attentive she was to them as well. I am so incredibly grateful to have had her help! She is a fantastic, sweet person, such a pleasure to work with, and an amazing wedding planner.

ist, so we bought grocery store bouquets thinking we could just tie some ribbon and make them look pretty. Not as easy as we thought! Without a moments hesitation, Christine jumped in and took over and made gorgeous bouquets tied with yellow ribbon, just as I imagined. She kept absolutely everything running on time, organized, safely, and smoothly the whole day. We literally could not have done it without her. It would've been impossible! Thank you Christine!!!!

rea. I would not have been about to do it without her! Thanks Christine!

l keep you on track with all the to-do's, which is a challenge in itself. Christine's honesty, experience and input was invaluable as we tried to keep everyone safe during covid and our day drew near. She helped us stay on course and our day was perfect!

managed every detail of the day which took a weight off of my shoulders. Throughout the process she gave me peace of mind and reduced my stress - totally priceless! Nothing was left to chance, everything was organized to the "T" and I had fun in the process. Thanks so much!

ith the results. Christine made planning a South Florida wedding from NYC an absolute breeze and she really went above and beyond when it came to editing our photo list and creating the perfect wedding timeline. When my husband and I realized super last minute that we should videotape our ceremony because my grandpa was officiating, Christine offered to set up a tri-pod and do it herself. She also even helped with my dress when the bustle fell out. On top of her ability to handle whatever comes her way, Christine is incredibly sweet and bubbly—just what any couple needs on their wedding day. She worked seamlessly with the other vendors and we were thrilled with how everything was set up. Do yourself a favor and hire her now!

lad we did! The event was beautiful, fit us to a tee, and everyone had a fantastic time. All the vendors chosen were absolutely perfect from the food to the beautiful cake. We could not have been more pleased! They even took thorough pictures for us of the event and decor, gave us pre-addressed thank you notes to send our guests afterwards, and made sure all decor was perfectly in theme, reasonably priced, and set up beautifully before the event. It was absolutely no stress whatsoever on our part and we couldn't have had a better experience! Christine is absolutely fantastic and I would love to work with her again. Beyond five stars in service quality.

es all day long. You ran, YOU ACTUALLY RAN, on my wedding day to ensure everything went smoothly. You were always there with some encouraging words and advice. And even when the most incredible day was said and done you were there to ease the post wedding blues! Any brides out there who are lost on the planning journey need to find Christine! She is a godsend and now a lifelong friend! Love you Christine!

o the dance floor to cutting a loose thread on the groom's shirt. She was really easy to work with. I think it's important for potential clients to get feedback from other vendors as well. She cares about working as a team with everyone to create your dream day!!

mily) I actually stopped replying to her a few times so that she could stop working ! Christine is super organized and kept me on track getting everything I needed to have done on my end thanks to her deadlines (I really needed this as I tend to be a procrastinator)! Christine created a perfect wedding timeline - SO IMPORTANT! Based on our conversations I never could have done that without her ! Everything flowed perfectly with her timeline. She was truly on top of everything and everyone from our venue, vendors, guests, bridal party and me and my husband (and even our puppy who was in the wedding) !! We had a huge bridal party (about 14 on each side) If Christine was able to handle and wrangle our crazy bunch she can handle any thing! Not only is she hard working and efficient, Christine is so kind, patient, understanding and incredibly helpful! She really guided me though this whole wedding planning world with her expertise and sweetest personality! The last couple weeks before my wedding I was so calm as I handed everything over to Christine and was able to enjoy doing things for myself to pamper and prep for the wedding. Even the day of, I had nothing to worry about because I knew she was on top of everything! I just enjoyed getting ready with all my girls because I knew I had the best, most trustworthy on top of everything wedding planner in town! Hiring Christine was hands down THE best decision I made for my wedding she’s the most valuable player (MVP) of our wedding! My husband and I will remember all her hard work leading up to and the day of our wedding WE LOVE YOU OUR MVP Christine !!

her guidance, dedication and hard work. I HIGHLY recommend Christine for all your event needs & to bring your vision to life!!

so many details when it comes to weddings and she was able to let us sit back and enjoy our day.

budget. I was able to spit ideas & timelines ideas with her & she gave me great feedback. On the days before I was able to email all my vendors & my wedding party the documents we had worked on together & everything went so smoothly.

s always available to answer our questions and give recommendations to help us with the first dance, send off and back up locations in case it rained. Even though it rained, I never had to worry about anything because Christine made sure everything flowed seamlessly. We highly recommend!!!
