Couldn't have survived this day without them!!

Amanda and Glennie were outstanding throughout the process and really put our minds at ease that we had all of our bases covered going into the wedding. Week of, they dealt with difficult vendors and solved so many problems for us with ease that would have been a nightmare for my husband and I to deal with. Day of, wind really threw a wrench in the decor plans but they modified to make everything look the best it could be and no guests even noticed what went wrong. Our friends and family said it was the best wedding they'd ever been to! A lot of people commented they were sure we didn't get a chance to eat - we were actually stuffed! Amanda took our drink orders in advance, and gathered up appetizers, dinner and dessert to put on the sweetheart table. It was such a nice touch we would have never thought of! All in all, they were the most worthwhile investment we made for this wedding, because it allowed us to actually enjoy the party too. Thank you both so much!!

Make your wedding less stressful -- hire Calmerin

If you want to make your wedding planning even a fraction easier, hire Calmerin. We got their Jade package and even though that’s their smallest package it was so so helpful. We talked with Glennie and Amanda to talk over big picture stuff, get recommendations for other vendors, etc. and then the first time I met them was for the venue walkthrough. They’re the professionals and so they brought so many excellent questions for us and for the venue. It really helped us know what we still needed to figure out and prepare for the big day. Then, for the rehearsal/walkthrough and the big day, they were there every step of the way to help get the whole timeline sorted out. Both Amanda and Glennie were so kind and professional; they helped the whole day run so smoothly. The last thing, but really SO important and crucial: they helped with the breakdown and packing everything up. While we were all dancing on the dance floor and having a blast, they were helping to gather up everything and get the venue set back as it needed to be by the end of the night. It was such a weight off our shoulders for them to just handle all of that. They were always on top of everything and it was all so wonderful. Hire Calmerin for your wedding, and breathe a sigh of relief that you have them on your team because now it will surely be a beautiful day. Thanks Glennie and Amanda for everything! It was such a joy to work with you both!

HIRE!! Best decision ever, made our wedding happen!

Calmerin was the best investment we made for our wedding, hands down!!! Glennie and Ashton were incredible from the start to finish. We knew from the very first phone call that they were going to 100% on top of it, and we were right! The organization and detail of this team is top-notch. We hired them for Jade Package, which is similar to day-of-coordination (which is really more month-of). They were key at makings our majority DIY wedding, 170 guest happen. Plus, Glennie and Ashton were such lovely, kind, and genuine people!!

While the bulk of the details and communication was in the month leading up to our wedding, we had access to all of the planning docs as soon as we sent our deposit. The planning docs are AMAZING and so detailed, making us feel like we could transfer all of our knowledge/plans/thoughts to them. This was really important for us since we were doing the majority of the planning, and they executed phenomenally. We were also able to ask them for questions, such as a DJ recommendation.

Glennie and Ashton were fantastic during the thorough venue walk-through, video calls, rehearsal with our wedding party, and on the day-of. We were able to drop off all of our wedding stuff (2 SUVs full) the morning of with set-up directions, and we showed up and it looked better than we had imagined/planned for! The tight set-up window from our venue was stressful, but Glennie and Ashton made sure everything was ready to go. They were so great at communicating with our vendors (we got many compliments!) They only texted us 1 small question the day-of, knowing that we were stressed and busy. They were AMAZING throughout the whole night, making sure we were on schedule and that we had everything we needed.

We could go on and on about how amazing the team was and how happy we are that we worked with them. Best decision, book them before their calendars fill!

The BEST day of coordinators!!

We worked with Glennie and Reno to plan our dream wedding this past May. I cannot recommend them ENOUGH! They were FABULOUS!

First, Glennie and Reno are two of the most fun and kind people to work with. They both are super attentive, always listening to what I wanted and making me feel heard - very important in wedding coordinators. They also were just so fun to be around and immediately made us feel so comfortable the first time we met them. It was like working on a wedding with friends!

As for the coordination on the day of...they crushed it. I could not have asked for a better team. We had a VERY busy day with lots of moving pieces and details, and they handled every single thing like a champ. The set up on the day of was literally out of my Pinterest dreams - they took exactly what I told them I wanted and brought it to life.

We only hired them for "day of coordination" but they really start helping about 3 months before the wedding. They were also always available via text or email - even for small questions like how many candles to buy per table to big questions about timeline.

Truly, I could not recommend this team more. They really brought our dream wedding to life and it was such a joy working with them.

THANK YOU GLENNIE AND RENO!!

Stop reading and book Calmerin Designs and Events!!

Within days of getting engaged, I knew I did not want to plan a whole wedding. It seemed so daunting and my partner and I did not know where to start. Enter: Calmerin Designs and Events. I had seen Glennie and her team in action at my maid of honor's wedding so I felt confident looking at no other event planners. I will continue to tell everyone how great of a decision this was. Glennie and Reno did it all: searched for vendors, arranged meetings and coordinated 99% of communication with them, ensured our contracts were organized, managed our budget, created mood boards to design our entire wedding, made to-do lists, managed our rehearsal, created master schedules down to the minute, helped with set up and tear down, dealt with last-minute changes - and SO much more! We worked with them for almost 1 ½ years and they were a dream and delight the entire time. I cannot fit into this tiny box how much we recommend Calmerin Designs and Events - you will absolutely not regret it.

Thank you Glennie!

I highly recommend you book your wedding planning/coordination with Glennie and her team! They were so responsive, accommodating, professional and just on top of everything. They helped execute our day and made sure every detail was exactly as we wanted it.

We hired Calmerin to be our day-of coordinators but they were there for us and involved weeks in advance. Making sure they understood our vision and knew exactly what we were hoping for. They are incredibly organized and detail oriented, and brought today our perfect day.

Thank you Glennie and Jess for taking care of us and our wedding!!

Could not have done it without these amazing women

I booked Calmerin for day of coordination. I had collected a lot of decorations on my own and had a vision of what I wanted. I explained it to Glendale and BAM, everything was exactly what I wanted and even better!!! I didn’t have to worry about a thing. These girls are very talented and they work very hard for you. Best decision I made for my wedding was to hire Calmerin for my day of need. You guys are AMAZING! 10/10

Truly Exceptional!

Glendale and Cathlene were exceptional to work with for our wedding! I am an event planner myself, so I might be somewhat high maintenance when it comes to someone else doing event planning for me, but Glendale TRULY made me feel like I was in great hands and I honestly didn't have to worry about a single thing for our wedding! She and Cathlene reached out to all of our vendors and even our entourage before the wedding to ensure everyone was on the same page, and then on the day of the wedding, they worked their magic and made the day FLAWLESS, literally! I didn't have to worry about anything knowing they were there. Everything was set up perfectly, every vendor did everything according to plan, and we had the most amazing day thanks to our incredible wedding planners. I highly recommend working with Calmerin Designs and Events for any of your event needs!

Above & Beyond!

Glennie and Jessica were absolutely, hands down the best day-of wedding coordinators! They went ABOVE AND BEYOND and surpassed all my expectations and my wedding would not have been as magical as it was without their help. You definitely get much more than you pay for and all the stressing over the details, well you don't have to worry about it with them because they're already on top of it. They don't just show up on your big day - all the time and energy they put in behind the scene starts the very moment you book them. Their passion really shines through and you cannot go wrong with Calmerin! Thank you so much for everything!
