CW Events or go home

How to review CW Events…If I could just say there is CW Events and then everyone else, I would. However, Christine Wheat and her team deserve a review. It’s difficult to clearly summarize the incredible feat it was to have our 3-day wedding event at the Sagamore Resort on Lake George that included a rehearsal dinner on a boat, a welcome dinner in the Pavilion, the day of wedding festivities throughout the grounds which started at 8 AM and didn’t end until well after midnight including fireworks, the after party, and then Sunday brunch in yet another venue, and have not one hiccup. Not. A. One. In addition, there were 11 groomsmen, 7 bridesmaids, and a flower girl who all had their separate schedules, the hair and makeup schedule, the photographer’s schedule, the florist’s schedule, the rental company’s schedule, the 14-piece band’s schedule, the DJ’s schedule, and meals which had to be coordinated for all the above vendors. Who was in charge of these schedules? Christine, of CW Events with her signature style and grace flawlessly orchestrating all of it. Additionally, let me not forget there was the golf cart following my 92-year-old mother around also thought of and coordinated by Christine. At one point, I noticed her delivering a plate of food so that my daughter, the bride and her new husband, got something to eat during the photography session. Talk about no stone left unturned. Leading up to our wedding, Christine guided us in the planning process over 2 years. With bi-weekly zoom calls, vendor suggestions who turned out to be fabulous, her design and color advice from everything from invitations to linens to name just a few, her etiquette knowledge, her incredible organizational and computer skills, and most impressively the reputation she has garnered with The Sagamore Resort enabled us to be fully prepared. I do not know if one can truly appreciate what it takes to put on this sort of event and have nothing go wrong. So I will tell you: It takes a wildly successful professional with years of experience, and high expectations of her team all laser focused with one goal: to see her clients happy. Her clients, meaning my husband and I were more than happy. We were ecstatic. So I will say it again….there is CW Events and then there is everyone else. She is simply the best wedding planner on planet Earth.

Thank you CW Team!!

The Christine Wheat Events Team was so incredible to work with while planning our wedding! We hired them for Day of Coordination services and they went above and beyond to make our wedding the most perfect day ever! They created a minute by minute schedule for the day that helped make everything go so smoothly and so stress free! I cannot say enough good things about Laura & Lindsey who helped set up our decor, coordinate all of our different vendors, and make sure my husband and I had the best day ever. If you’re on the fence about hiring a day of coordinator, it is so worth it and the Christine Wheat Event Team goes above and beyond!!

The best there is!

Christine and her team are THE ABSOLUTE BEST!! I have seen her work for years so when it came time for our wedding, it was a no brainer decision. Christine does not miss a beat, no detail goes unnoticed. After one meeting with Christine she saw my vision and truly brought it to life. Not only did I thoroughly enjoy working with her but EVERY vendor sung her praises.

Christine and Jordan made the whole wedding planning process easy and fun. They helped me and guided me with every decision to make sure the wedding day ran smoothly. I got to enjoy the entire wedding day because there was no doubt in my mind that Christine and Jordan were on it.

They are responsive, extremely organized, and are truly the nicest team. I was sad not to have our meetings when the wedding was over because they were such a pleasure to work with!

I couldn't be happier with our wedding day, everything went perfectly and we owe a huge thank you to CWeventsfirm!
