I thought that I would not need a wedding coordinator and I was wrong. I am so glad Celeste was available to help me with my wedding. She helped me stay on track (I forgot many things) and everything was organized. The wedding ran smoothly and it was nice to not have to worry about the other vendors on the wedding day. My mom was so happy that I found Celeste. A big thank you to Celeste for all of her hard work! More...

Let me apologize for not getting this review in sooner. Getting a new job and a husband has taken up A LOT of my time. Celeste did an amazing job helping us coordinate our wedding. We utilized her services the final six weeks of our wedding planning, hiring her for the ceremony rehearsal and day of wedding coordination. She was a life saver!! Not only is she professional, but she has such a positive energy and confidence that left us feeling calm with a strong sense of relief. She knew exactly what needed to be done to pull everything together. She went above and beyond the call of duty and I have already recommend her as a planner to all of my friends regardless of the type of event. More...

My planner, Celeste was very professional, resourceful, and so much more. I lived in Canada at the time and thought that it would be a pain to plan a wedding in Atlanta from Canada. But Celeste proved me wrong. She did 92% the ground work for me and was patient. I also loved the fact that she took her time to know us and build a relationship with my husband and I, that spoke volumes about the business. My husband says that he loves how she didn't just look at us just as another client who just has to dish out the cash.
She was also very mindful of our budget. More...

Celeste is super creative and came up with some really unique twists to make our day special. We live in New Mexico and she communicated with us monthly initially and as we got closer to the wedding we received almost daily updates on the plans. Celeste helped take our original ideas and make them a lot more cost-effective and stylish. We applaud her and her team. More...

From the first meeting you understood us as a couple and exactly what we wanted the day to be like, which was the most important thing. You then provided us with the guidance we needed through the whole planning process and supported us with the excellent service. Honestly, every single person we spoke to has said that it was the best wedding that they had ever been to. We're SO glad we hired you to organize it.

I wanted to sincerely THANK YOU for a job well done! When I originally came to you and mentioned to you that I needed someone with eyes in the back of their head, I had no idea that you had more than one set of yes back there – I was very very impressed with not only your services but your true overall professionalism as well. Please know that I appreciated all of the information you provided me prior to my wedding day. Everything that I used during the ceremony were all neatly wrapped and placed back in the original boxes and bags and I truly thank you for that. All my prayers were answered on May 25tth and much of that had to do with your many years of experience in the business. I do hope that we can stay in contact. More...

Dear Celeste

How does anyone ever plan a wedding and reception without you? I cannot imagine doing it. Your knowledge of all aspects of weddings is phenomenal and I was repeatedly impressed with your ability and skill. From our first telephone conversation you never seemed like a stranger. You were more like a dear friend I had known all my life, You seemed to know what I wanted before I did and you knew just how to steer me in the right direction to get things done. I really needed your rare ability to take charge when needed too. And your suggestions never took me away from “my” dream. They just focused and streamlined it to make it come out perfect.

The monthly calendar was very helpful and kept me moving to accomplish the needed tasks each month. But for me, knowing your calming voice was always just a phone call away to answer any questions and sooth my jitters was priceless. You regularly called me too, just to check on the tasks at hand and you had a uncanny way of remembering the things I had forgotten.
The vendors you referred me to were extraordinary knowledgeable people and all spoke very highly of you and your ability. I hate to think of how difficulty my search for the perfect photographer, florist and musician etc. would have been without the benefit of your experience.

Our wedding and reception were perfect thanks to you. You kept everything going on schedule and everybody in place and moving on cue. You were tireless, efficient, helpful, friendly (and you looked beautiful too) scurrying around behind the scenes to make sure everything was exactly right. Just knowing you were there gave me tremendous peace of mind.

Ugly - Nothing
Bad - A little warm in church but the ceremony started on time ( thanks to you ) Thanks Celeste you are real professional.
Good-Your director was attractive, professional and all about the business. Most of my guest had never been to an African American wedding . The church was decorated beautifully, and my reception was the BOMB!!!!!!!!. With all that said I appreciate what a great job you did . I will be sending referrals your way . LaDonna Caines More...
