Christy was our first vendor we hired after we had chosen a date and venue to be married at. From the start, she gave my husband and I a sense of respect and calmness to begin our ...
wedding planning journey. She provided us with numerous resources to use during wedding planning, which were very helpful and provided great advice for before, during, and after the wedding. She prioritizes your opinion and thoughts and always clarifies with you before moving forward when ordering items or securing vendors. Christy remained honest and true to herself throughout the planning process which is something that my husband and I appreciated. Being the indecisive woman I am, Christy did not overwhelm me with multiple options, rather gave me 2 - 3 choices, which allowed me to narrow my decision with ease. Christy knew the business in the Dallas area and planning a wedding while out-of-state, I knew I could trust her work. She caught on to my vision quickly and delivered ideas that were so on-point with my style. Everything about our wedding day was so wonderful and turned out more beautiful than I had envisioned. Christy and her team were a joy to work with and my husband and I are so glad that we found her!! Highly recommended :)
Christy was a DREAM to work with and a joy to get to know. As a type-A person, it is hard for me to trust others with a task like planning my wedding. However, I could not have ask...
ed for a better wedding planner to bring our big day to life. From the very beginning, I felt an immediate sense of calm and trust in Christy and her team. My wedding day was a dream come true and it was all thanks to Swank Soiree. Christy is communicative and ] personable, and she prioritizes the needs of the bride and their family. She genuinely cares about her clients and is invested in the significance of the wedding day. Her planning process was thorough and accessible for everyone involved and she took everything we shared to heart, found vendors that matched our style, and offered suggestions that were the perfect added touch to our day. To top it off, our wedding took place in Houston, and, although she is a Dallas-based planner, it felt like she ran the city of Houston and found the best vendors in our area. I highly recommend Swank Soiree to those looking for a wedding planner as it was a true privilege to work with their team.
September 5, 2021 was truly a day to remember and that is all thanks to Swank Soirée and Christy Record. Christy is an extraordinary planner who genuinely cares about her clients. ...
She is friendly, passionate and truly executed our vision. Her experience, knowledge, and relationships with vendors are unmatched! There were times when my mom and I couldn’t find the words to express our ideas or what we wanted, but Christy understood our vision and helped create the most beautiful and perfect unforgettable day! All of her suggestions, recommendations, and ideas were brilliant! She perfectly matched our vendors to our style. Christy spent hours in person, through emails, and over the zoom making sure no detail was missed. She truly went above and beyond in every aspect. When it came to wedding day,we had over 15 vendors,and 300+ guest and the day went off with out a hitch. I don’t know how my mom and I can ever express our appreciation and gratitude to Christy and her team. Our wedding was straight out of a fairytale, and something my husband and I will cherish forever. Look no further than Swank Soirée and Christy Record; I know you won’t be disappointed!!
Christy is a truly PHENOMENAL planner and if we could go back and do the wedding planning process all over again, we would choose her once more. She is an incredibly personable and...
on-top-of-it professional. She made our Pinterest board and vision come to life on our wedding day by finding the best vendors, synthesizing the decorative brief and making sure that every single detail was accounted for. And she did all of this while we navigated rescheduling the wedding due to COVID, with us being out of state while I was in grad school during planning. She truly treats each of her clients like family and you would be remiss to not try to secure Christy as your full-service planner. Her experience, personality, and creative eye far exceed the monetary investment in value of her services. If you're truly looking for the greatest return on your wedding planning investment, look no further than Christy at Swank Soiree!!
We had our wedding in November 2020 and Christy was truly a Godsend! People are quite candid about the stress of wedding planning so I was very anxious about the whole process. Chr...
isty swooped in and was there every step of the way to ensure everything was taken care of, shielding me from the typical stress and allowing me to truly enjoy everything. She was proactive in managing many details that I didn’t even know existed and was very organized. I really appreciated how responsive Christy was- no matter how big or small my question was, she had no problem hopping on the phone or responding to late night texts to talk through details and ease any anxiety. She was able to bring my dream wedding to life while still keeping me in check with our budget. And even when the COVID numbers were going up in the community, she was on top of everything to make sure us and our guests had a safe yet fun experience. Through it all, I felt like I was planning a wedding with a friend and I couldn’t have been more grateful to have had someone as phenomenal as her.
Krystal and Swank Soiree were God sent for our wedding! Me and my husband were about 4 months into planning before we found them and what a difference it made. She kept my mind at ...
ease while I travelled for work every week up until the wedding. She kept me on track and their seamless execution and orchestration of the day is something my husband and I revisit everytime we talk about our wedding! Not only was my experience professional but Krystal’s sweet spirit and comforting disposition made me feel like family by the end of the experience.
Christy and her team knew my vision from start to finish! She essentially became like family to us! Every single detail she made bigger and better than I ever could have imagined. ...
In the middle of wedding planning my husband got a new job in Houston, so we had to move and it was like she was still right there with me like when I lived in Dallas. She is truly the best of the best when it comes to wedding planners. Having Swank Soirée as your planning team is worth every last penny and then some. We are so blessed we got to have Christy be apart of our lives but our families lives for 13 months while she guided and helped me plan the best party of my life!
My neighbor recommended Christy because I told him I was looking for a planner. He bragged so much about her and now that my wedding has come to a end, I can completely say the sam...
e now! She did such a great job throughout the whole planning. Definitely made wedding day a lot easier! Saved us money on our venue contract. Overall Swank Soiree is worth all of the 5 stars given. I don’t want to leave out her assistant because she was the sweetest ever! I had vendors and guest compliment them. Also, Christy is well educated when it comes to weddings and well connected. I received discounts from vendors after mentioning that she was my planner. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a planner.
Christy and the team at Swank Soiree did an AMAZING job as our wedding planners! They took care of every little detail and made sure that we had such a special evening. As two wo...
rking professionals, we just didn't have time during the day to handle the 'business" of planning our wedding, and that's where Christy and her team really saved the day. They are super professional, very reasonably priced, they know all the vendors you need for your wedding here in the DFW area, and the evening of our wedding they were on-point and made sure things went-off without a hitch. We couldn't be happier with them and we highly recommend them to anyone looking for a wedding planner who truly cares about your event and treats you like family.
Absolutely loved working with Krystal of the Swank Soriee team! After our first meeting, I felt like we were life long girlfriends. Krystal was very responsive to all of my needs ...
and often made suggestions of how I could save costs (because I was over budget). I opted for Wedding Management vs Full-Service planning but this was perfect for me as I'm already a super organized person. Krystal came on board 8 weeks out from my wedding date and hit the ground running. I promise it was the biggest relief EVER and the best money I spent on my wedding out of everything. When my venue tried to go back on a promise already made, Krystal was there to set the record straight and let them know the deal. I always felt like I was in good hands and that things would get done. Even when I tried to do things, Krystal would remind me to STOP - and let me know it was her job to contact my vendors and ensure everyone is where they need to be at the set times. Wish I could have another wedding to work with her all over again! :)
Christy and her team are amazing. We definitely couldn’t have pulled off the big day without them! They are nice & professional and personable as well! The vendors she lined up fo...
r us were us were the best selections! We were in GREAT hands! I’m so thankful for their guidance every step of the way. The day of our wedding, I just noticed more guest came than expected, and I felt “oh no, this is going to get out of hand” but NOPE. Christy and Krystal made sure the entire night was seamless. All of our guest continue to tell us it was the best wedding they have ever been too! Huge thanks to that would be to the Swank Soirée team! Choose them, you won’t be disappointed!
Hiring Christy and team was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! She took care of all of the less fun aspects of wedding planning (budgeting, coordinating with vendor...
s,etc.) so we could enjoy being engaged! Day of the wedding, Christy had a calm demeanor the entire time and if anything went wrong, I didn’t know it! I never felt I had anything to worry about and my husband I were able to truly enjoy the best day of our life. Thank you again!!
I will never forget Christy’s closing line - how much is peace of mind worth - my answer is priceless. True story - I was about to have a nervous breakdown planning my own wedding...
. I brought Christy in towards the middle - she was beyond great! Super organized, she had a strong portfolio of vendors for me, she worked with me and my quirks of wanting control over many things but not having the time to handle it all- she took my vision and over delivered. Everything about my wedding went off perfect as planned. All of my vendors executed flawlessly - my only wish is that I could have save time, stress and money by starting with Swank Soirée from the beginning. She is so good my best friend even used Swank Soirée for his 40th - 2 months after my wedding. Pick her - she will change your life!!!!
Christy and her team made our wedding dreams come true. Throughout the planning process she was so helpful and patient with us as we wanted to review every detail and explore all p...
ossible vendors. As we approached our wedding weekend we had to move to our plan B due to weather and Swank Soiree ensured that every detail was transitioned inside and that our magical garden ceremony and reception was recreated indoors. Our guests cannot stop raving about the event and we are so grateful to Swank Soiree and their vendor partners for making it truly magical.
Absolutely amazing! We initially chose for day of planning and upgraded part of the way through when we were overwhelmed. Christy is wonderful and I could not recommend her highly ...
Enough. We had some pretty odd requests and she made them happen almost effortless.

feet, making sure that even the smallest details were right. There were a few hiccups during my sister's wedding and Christy was there every step of the way being supportive and taking care of business. You would be a fool not to hire her as your wedding planner!!
Christy saved my wedding!!! My husband and I decided to go with an all inclusive venue which was The Villagio Resort in Burleson Texas. The beginning of wedding planning journey wa...
s a disaster dealing with most of the vendors including the Villagio wedding planner. It was not until I found Christy almost three months before my wedding and saved my day. She took care of everything and she helped me with every vendor and wedding detail!!! I dont know what I would have done without her.

h Christy, we knew we’d found a gem. We had SO MANY questions and she thoroughly answered each one of them.
On the day of the wedding, Christy and Krystal were so organized and prepared. Our guests and bridal party completely followed their lead and everything turned out perfect.
Their level of professionalism and expertise meant a great deal to us.

Best company ever! Very thorough and made our dream wedding come true!!!

It was a destination wedding she did an amazing job.
Thank you again Christy

I attended the Bridal Brunch Dallas edition for Black Bride magazine July 2017 in which Swank Soiree was the host. It took place at the Crescent Hotel in Dallas and it was SO beaut...
iful, informative and so much fun! Christy, Principal Planner, did a wonderful job; check-in was seamless, music was awesome, all vendors were prepared and equipped, lunch was delicious, the agenda flowed and the event started on time. It was a great turnout and truly felt like brunch with some new bride-to-be friends where we all got to network and meet some fabulous vendors right here in our backyard of Dallas, TX!
Christy’s management of this event was impressive and she is the perfect balance of personable and professional. She engaged with the guests and still made sure the event was being run the way it was supposed to. There was a diverse lineup of vendors attend the event and showcase their services, ranging from make-up/hair to special effects/uplighting. The vendors were equally as professional and personable and do work with Swank Soiree all the time and came highly recommended. I reached out to her a few weeks after the event concluded and asked if she was available for our wedding date (the only thing that was already confirmed was our wedding date and venue) and luckily she was! My fiancé and I had a consultation with her and discussed everything from our vision board of our wedding day to the journey to marriage and beyond, which was a special bonus to us. Christy is not just a wedding planner; she is a true believer in the covenant of marriage which we really appreciated 😊.
We locked in Swank Soiree as our full-service wedding planner which was the best decision ever. Christy (and her assistants) are prepared for IT ALL. True story, one of the straps broke (completely detached) on my wedding gown as I was starting to sit down in my seat and Christy literally hid behind my chair (DURING MY PARENTS’ TOASTS) and sewed that sucker back together in 3 minutes and it was never an issue again. My MOH was sitting directly to my left and goes “I don’t even want to begin to imagine how tonight would have gone if it wasn’t for your amazing wedding planner. Just….wow.” LOL I am telling you, this woman is a wedding fairy!!
We just received our wedding gallery photos and wish we could relive this day over and over again; it was so special and so much fun. Highly recommend Swank Soiree!!!!
Prior to the wedding, Christy put together a timeline for us which made our wedding day go by sooo smoothly. I did not have to worry about anything that day and it was amazing!
As fate would have it, my life was saved literally by Christy and her wedding planning services! I initially thought I was going to plan my wedding myself with a little Help from m...
y bridesmaids and then hire a day of coordinator only...Well - after acquiring several strands of gray hair and having to start anxiety medication- I was referred to Christy. I will never forget the quote she shared “What’s the value of peace of mind?” I can tell you it is worth a million bucks! Don’t do it the hard way, let Swank Soiree take care of every detail. They are beyond awesome. I leveraged her for full service and although I have a tendency to not relinquish control, Christy was sonon top of EVERYTHING - I was able to let go. She created my lovely website, secured the right vendor to create my invitations, and programs, set up cake tastings, dj interviews, found a phenomenal band, introduced me to a wonderful florist, managed my budget and created the best memorable event I will ever have the pleasure of starring in. For a great experience choose SWANK SOIREE. Our day was truly a fairytale and now I am a bit sad it is over (I miss chatting with Christy) but the good news is she also helped me work an awesome photographer (Teshorn Jackson) and videographer (CHRIS Harman)
Christy turned my wedding into a Cinderella Fairy Tale. When I was a kid, I always wanted a Cinderella wedding. Christy was my Fairy Godmother who made it all happen.
WOW...AN ABSOLUTE DREAM COME TRUE!!! 7 stars!

rateful! Thanks again for making our special day beautiful.
I came across Swank Soirée while looking for wedding planners and this one stuck with me. My husband and I knew we wanted to hire Christy before the 1st meeting was over. We wanted...
a small intimate wedding and she took that and made it sooo much more magical than we could have ever imagined. Our guests are still talking about it. We gave her a budget and she made sure we had the best in everything. The team of vendors she introduced us to was a hit. As a bride, I can honestly say I didn't have to worry about anything on my big day because it was already taken care of. Christy became more than a wedding planner to us. She's apart of our family. If you're looking for someone who's reasonable, knowledgable, professional and loves doing what they do then I highly recommend Swank Soiree for your events.
I loved working with Christy! She listened to me and always had great suggestions! She helped me find majority of my vendors and she was such a great resource for my wedding. I don...

Paula was our day of event coordinator for our wedding on September 17th. We knew we wanted a coordinator to make sure the event went smoothly so we hired Swank Soiree. Our weddin...
g was executed to perfection. It was apparent that Paula did a lot of work behind the scenes that we weren't even aware of. We seriously didn't need to follow up with the vendors because apparently Paula was on top of it. I mean even the vendors raved about our coordinator. Our guests raved about our coordinator, and of course, the husband and I was very pleased with her. I seriously just let go and everything just fell into place. But it didn't just fall into place, Paula made sure it did. I also have to point out that this was a Nigerian wedding and my guests thought Paula was Nigerian too because she knew the flow of our traditional processes so well. There is so much to say about how excellent Paula is, but the long story short is, if you are planning a wedding, just get a planner or coordinator to relieve the stress on your wedding day. And if you need your vision to be executed flawlessly, be sure to ask for Paula at Swank Soiree.
Christy and the Swank Soiree team were fantastic! Guidance on the right vendors (with the right personalities) and organizing the details within budget were key for us, and the sup...

isty is attentive, direct, and professional. I miss our meetings! I felt stress free knowing that I could trust Swank Soiree to execute my vision. My groom, who didn't understand the point of a planner, was pleased. He takes all the credit for thinking of hiring a planner now. LOL! Swank Soiree has so much to offer for any type of bride. Look no further!

Christy Record and the P.S. I Love You team provided month-of and day-of wedding coordination services for my March 2014 wedding. I highly recommend this team of professionals. C...
hristy offered invaluable advice throughout the process. Her straightforward personality gave me the confidence, from the first day we met, that she would represent me well with vendors and family in a manner that would get the job done.
On our wedding day, her team was in place, ensured all of our wishes for the day were adhered to, and assisted us in starting our wedding on time. Throughout the evening, Christy, her partner, and her staff were very present, but still remained in the background. They kept an eye on every aspect. Every consideration was given to ensuring we had the perfect day, down to the smallest detail and most precious moment.
Christy provided the little touches that make a big difference. At our departure from the reception, she even made sure we were picture perfect by taking bags from us and replacing them with my bouquet for a video/photo perfect escape to the car. We had no concern that our personal items would be retrieved and stored. And overall, every effort was made to keep us and our wedding guests in the moment, without concern for any detail.
After the wedding, Christy and her team made sure all of our belongings were retrieved and stored safely. Christy is someone I would call on again for event planning services. I highly recommend P.S. I Love You. They were a perfect fit for our day.
Fantastic Job! Patient & Organized! Always Available!
Pam and her team were great. Pam communicated a lot prior to the wedding day and made me feel at ease. Her team took my vision and made it come to life.

She provided me with vendors, she thought of details that I never considered: such as the way my bridesmaids walk down the aisle. When I would get frustrated, she knew how to calm me down. I built a special bond with her in such a short amount of time. She really stood out at the wedding, because she was constantly on her job. She never stopped moving. Everyone, including me and my husband were well pleased with her. I highly recommend P.S. I love you wedding and event planning to all. Not only does she do her job well, but she loves it, and she loves people. When we had an abundance of people show up at our wedding, I gave her the authority to call audibles in ensuring that everyone that RSVP'd for the reception had a seat. Everyone bragged about P.S. I love you wedding and event planner! We applaud you for a job well done!
