Toria is AMAZING! My husband and I had such a great day & our guest have only had good things to say about how well the day went.
Toria came into the picture a bit later in our ...
wedding planning (due to wavering on if we actually needed a coordinator) so we ended soliciting Toria for day of coordination help. Hands down, this was the best decision we could have made. After spending so much time planning, it was great to know that Toria was there to make it all happen.
Toria was incredibly supportive of our decisions and was super helpful with helping me communicate with a very difficult vendor and a few pushy family members. In addition, Toria always was always available when I had questions and she had great suggestions on how to make the day run as best as possible. When the day got closer, my mind was at ease because she coordinated all of the final meetings, reached out to our vendors, and walked through all of the details with us.
Honestly, I could go on and on about how absolutely wonderful of coordinator and person Toria is. Wedding planning can be incredibly frustrating but Toria was so genuinly kind and caring throughout the process. She was invested in our day and it showed in how thoughtful, confident, organized and personable Toria was (this alleviated a lot of stress for me). All in all, having her coordinate our day really allowed us to focus on the only thing that really mattered about the entire day... the beginning of our life together and for that my husband family and I are so so SO grateful!
Owner Toria Carlo went far above and beyond for our wedding! Not just during the day of, but for weeks and months leading up to our special day. Her effort helped us to enjoy our d...
ay and be much less stressed. If we had to do it all over again, we would hire Toria (Pedals and Lace) over again in a heart beat. She was sincere, professional, and timely. We simply could not be more pleased with everything she provided and did for us!
Toria is a true gem! My wedding wouldn't have been so magically perfect if she wasn't there!! Her vision, talent and patience puts her above the rest! Everything I pictured for my ...
big day became a reality thanks Toria's hard work and dedication! I had so many breakdowns prior to the wedding but Toria was my rock! She provided great advice, creating every vision I had into reality, picked the best vendors for me and went above and beyond the call for my every need! Her sweet calming nature helped me through my moments of panic, always there reassuring me that everything would be perfect, and she went out of her way to ensure I had every last detail perfectly!! I changed my theme a few times and each time she painted the perfect picture of my day, no matter which theme I went with! Ultimately we went for the Indian/American theme and her talent poured into creating the best wedding ever!! From decorating, to co-ordinating, to calming, she worked with such ease and professionalism, everyone was impressed and I cannot thank her enough!! Every aspect of the wedding moved on time, with everyone being exactly where they needed to be and doing their part, thanks to her timeline and perfect co-ordination! With Toria's talent, amazing skills, calming personality and extreme professionalism, I have no doubt she will make any couple happy and create the perfect party!! I was able to sit down and enjoy the week leading up to the wedding and the entire big day thanks to Toria! I highly recommend Petals and Lace, and Toria! Thanks to her, I relaxed and enjoyed my day and you will too! You have a true gift Toria, continue doing what you love and making everyone you meet happy!!
First, I have to be honest and say I didn't initially think that we needed a planner for our wedding day, but let me tell you we could not have made it through our wedding weekend ...
without Toria and her team from Petals and Lace. By the time we hired Toria, we were only a few months out from the wedding, so my fiance and I chose to go with the day-of coordination package. However, Toria helped us through much more than just our wedding day. From the moment we met, we felt that she understood what we were looking for in a planner, and what our vision was for our wedding. Having both sets of parents living out of town, we really didn't have a "team" to depend on with any sort of planning help, and when we hired Toria, I for one felt so much better just knowing I had someone on my side and that I could rely on for help or questions.
Leading up to the wedding Toria helped us by coming to our final details meeting at our venue, researching a last minute videographer (literally last minute--like 3 weeks out from the wedding), and was there to answer any and all questions. She even thought of things we hadn't considered. She was also so, so, so helpful (I can't stress it enough) in doing final vendor confirmations, as well as helping us create a timeline for the weekend, which was HUGE in keeping my stress and anxiety in check.
During the wedding weekend we appreciated that she came to our rehearsal so she could understand the flow of the ceremony, and more importantly meet some of the key players of the weekend (ie. bridal party, parents, officiant, etc.). She was also able to go over any last minute details afterwards about the day of and set up, so that we were completely on the same page. On the wedding day, I didn't have to worry about a single thing because I knew I was in such good hands. In the morning, instead of a family member having to pick up 16 dozen Holtman's donuts, Toria's team handled it. Instead of ushers having to collect flowers and transport them, they moved everything to the reception so that we could enjoy pictures and celebrating with family and friends.
When it came to our reception, everything was decorated perfectly according to our vision. I really didn't leave too much direction for our decor, however, not only did Toria folly our requests, but did an amazing job transforming our space to make it just perfect! I couldn't have done it better! Throughout the night, everything went according to our timeline, and she made sure to check in every now and again to make sure things were great (which they always were!) If something went wrong on the day of the wedding, we had NO idea about it because everything was so well planned.
Overall, my advice as a past bride is you will not regret having a planner. We didn't think we needed one but we definitely did! I would completely recommend Toria with Petals and Lace because I really felt that she had our best interest at heart during the entire wedding planning process. At times with other vendors you have trouble trusting them and if they really want whats best for you or their bottom line, but we never felt that with her. We also liked that we felt we were her only focus, not like possibly other planners that have tons of brides and weddings to work on all at the same time. She understood our vision, was knowledgeable about the industry, and was readily available at all times without being pushy. We are so pleased we went with Petals and Lace for our big day!!
I cannot say enough about Toria. She was way more than a 'wedding vendor'; she became a trusted friend and felt like a part of our family. She handled everything at my daughter's ...
wedding so flawlessly which allowed me to enjoy every moment of my little girl's biggest day! Toria is worth her weight in gold and I would recommend her for any size, any style, any budget wedding. I just don't know how anyone can pull off a wedding (and enjoy it) without her.
Toria was a wonderful addition to our wedding team. She was professional, thoughtful and so much fun to work with. She was genuinely excited about our day and I felt comfortable ha...

make bouquets! I'd reccomend Petals & Lace to anyone needing a realistic and down-to-earth wedding planner.
Toria from Petals & Lace Event Planning & Design was a perfect fit for our wedding. Her organization, experience, and passion made the day seamless and on-task. From assisting wi...
th the rehearsal to execution on the day-of, we couldn't have asked for a better person to handle all of those items that we, quite frankly, didn't want to deal with! Toria listened to our vision, our requests, and our needs from the beginning and provided an incredibly executed plan to keep us and our guests on task. If it wasn't for Toria, chances are our wedding would have been far more fluid and would not have been quite as well-executed. I highly recommend getting Toria involved from the beginning- let her help you with the stresses of planning a wedding- and I guarantee that your day will be everything you had expected and more! Thanks Toria!
Toria, came to my rescue just a few weeks before our daughters wedding. She helped me with last minute touches, and most importantly with organizing the timeline for the big day! S...
