12/10, could not have picked a better planner!

Victoria was simply amazing! She saw my vision for our wedding and elevated it to make it the most perfect day ever. She got on board with us 3 months before the actual day and I swear preserved my sanity. She was always there- via email, phone calls, texts, etc. She thought of everything, especially the things that did not even cross my mind! When you hire her, you will be in amazing hands for your day. Quite literally could not have pulled it all off without her!

Amazing amazing amazing

My wedding day was everything I dreamed of thanks to Victoria and her assistant Natalie! Victoria stepped in 3-months prior to my wedding, and from then on it seemed like smooth sailing. She is full of great ideas to make your wedding your own. She takes your vision and runs with it! On my wedding day, I didn’t stress about a thing, her constant support and guidance helped me get through every step of the day. I knew she had everything under control. Her and her team are absolutely amazing! I’m so glad we crossed paths!!

Highly Recommend Cardinal Events

One of the best decisions we made for our wedding was choosing Cardinal Events as our Coordinator! Victoria was so helpful and wonderful during the months leading up to our wedding and she communicated with us and our vendors to make the perfect timeline. She kept me sane when I was stressing out about the big day, whether it was the possibility of rain or making sure we had the perfect cake! I don't know if I could have survived the day of without her and her and Natalie felt like part of the family! I cannot recommend them enough!
