Despina is amazing!

Despina made all my dreams come true. Everything I imagined my wedding to be like came to life right before my eyes and it couldn't have been anywhere near possible if it wasn't for Despina and Elaine. They knew exactly what I wanted even before I knew what I wanted. She added elements of my husband into the wedding so it wasn't all about me. She did everything in her power to grab me amazing deals. Because of her, I was able to be "the most Zen bride" anybody has ever met (those are my maid of honors words, not mine). I am so grateful for her and I will never forget her.

I could not have pulled off my wedding without Despina Craig Events! We began planning about a year out from my wedding date and I remember our first meeting like it was yesterday. We talked about colors, theme, textures, ambiance, etc. we looked through Pintrest and shared ideas. The second time we got together Despina showed me what she had come up with, it was PERFECT! I didn't have to change a single thing about it. She was able to pull all my ideas together into a wedding that was beyond my wildest dreams. It was truly a magical day! Despina is incredibly organized and always prepared. She made me aware of so many things I would have simply forgot. She manged the relationships with all my vendors, venue hosts, and bridal party. Which was incredible valuable as it was something I never seemed to have the time to do. Despina was in continuous communication making every step of the way so simple. I never felt that I was running out of time or that I was unprepared. She even did my amazing flowers! The flowers seriously made my entire vision come together flawlessly! What wedding planner can also do your flowers!? She is that amazing!

I would recommend Despina Craig Events a million times over and over! Not only for weddings but for any celebration. She can do it all! If you need someone to take control of your big day, while fully understanding your vision, and helping your event go off flawlessly, Despina Craig is your girl!

If you're looking for a great wedding planner Despina is the best choice you could make. I recently worked a wedding with her and she was so easy and joyful to work with. It made my job (as another wedding vendor), all the easier. The wedding day just flows much smoother and stress free with a great planner, and I couldn't recommend Despina more!
