Very helpful coordinator

I was very happy to have Desiree on my wedding day! She helped do SO much coordinating and having her make the wedding space beautiful was a huge help.
I was grateful to have someone so experienced with weddings be able to give me tips and advice as I was planning. The wedding day is such a whirlwind it’s great to have someone around as point-person directing the chaos.

The most amazing coordinator!!!!!

Carmen Taylor Weddings and Events coordinated my wedding day and everything went so perfectly!!! Desiree, the main planner, is the most amazing person I worked with during my whole wedding journey. She was SO on top of things all day that I did not have a single ounce of stress & quite literally everything was exactly how I imagined it. Without her our day would not have been as amazing and unforgettable as it was! I will most definitely be recommending her to all my friends who are soon to get engaged.

The true Greatest Of All Time!

Where to even begin on the most thoughtful, detail oriented, kind, hilarious, hard working woman that is Desiree Wells! My wedding would not have happened without her attention to every detail! Her wealth of experience was so evident every time we talked and I am so grateful that she was a part of our wedding day! Not only is she relatable and so so so easy to talk to, but she went above and beyond for us in every way! Our wedding day was flawless and I owe every bit of that to Desiree! My family can be a bit spacey at times, and she was able to keep everyone on schedule and where they needed to be with grace and ease! Desiree my dear, I appreciate you deeply!

Desiree planned my son’s wedding from the very beginning and served as day of coordinator. She spends a lot of time on attention to detail.

I was very happy with Desiree’s ability to understand our bride’s vision for her wedding. She gave advice based on etiquette and practicality but was always true to the bride’s concepts.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
