Candy+Co. Events, LLC

We started out wanting to plan our wedding ourselves. Both my husband and I are very detail-oriented and capable people— but we quickly discovered that wedding planning is a serious second job. Especially amidst COVID. Well, when we knew we couldn’t do it alone, my husband lined up a series of wedding planners for us to interview. Candy was actually our first one, and after speaking with her, we immediately looked at each other, smiled, and canceled the rest. It was an instant match— and immediately evident to us that she was not only qualified and highly capable, but I ust “got” the drivers of what a bride and groom are looking for from a wedding planner on their big day. She said it best on the day we met her: “It is my job to plan— so you don’t worry.” Done.

The organic skill, talent, care, attention to detail, and genuine empathy that went into every interaction we had with Candy and her team was unparalleled. They absolutely exceeded every expectation we had of a wedding planner and then some. Candy’s process, as well, is flawless. She is experienced enough to know what to anticipate, and can handle anything that comes at her bride and groom from any direction. She will advise you, handle your vendors, help you navigate COVID, and address every type of problem— anticipated or not. She literally listens to everything you say, and then stores it away to be your fairy godmother, acting on your behalf, on the big day.

Is it possible that someone can know you better than you know yourself on your wedding? Well, that is Candy and her team. We jokingly asked her at the end of our wedding weekend whether she could be our life planner. :-) She’s that good. In summary, we will say that we honestly could not have done this process without her, and recommend her with the absolute highest praise we could ever give. We consider her now not only someone who helped ensure our a big day was everything we wanted and more… but a friend. Truly.

If you are blessed enough to be able to work with Candy and her team, she will make your day something you will remember fondly for a lifetime. She is a true professional with unparalleled expertise— and the best decision we made for our big day. Thank you Candy for everything you did for us. We will never forget it— or you. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
