Carrie was Amazing!

Carrie and her team were absolutely amazing to work with. Our wedding day/weekend wouldn’t have been possible without their expertise. Carrie went above and beyond to accommodate all of our wishes and gathered our dream team of vendors to pull off our wedding weekend. Because of COIVD, our wedding would been cancelled, but with Carrie’s willingness and professionalism to work around the clock to plan, replan, plan, and replan every detail and handle every obstacle thrown at us, the entire weekend went off without a hitch. We still have guests raving about how breathtaking the wedding was and how much fun they had. Carrie was there for us during the whole planning process. She made it easy to make decisions and understood my vision from the start and turned it into one of the best weekends that I will cherish forever. It truly was the perfect day/weekend.

Exceptional

Carrie and her team exceeded our expectations beyond all measures. Not only do we feel as if we’ve gained a tremendous professional for future events but, we feel as though we also gained a lifelong friend in Carrie. She went the extra mile in every step of the process to ensure our big day was nothing short of breathtaking. My wife and I would give 100 stars out of five if we could. Don’t look any further than Carrie Dayton Events.

Hiring Carrie was the best decision I have ever made!

I don't even know how to put into words how amazing Carrie is and how grateful I am to her. I have never met anyone who loves what they do more than Carrie. To say she is on top of everything, goes above and beyond, and truly is the best at what she does would be an understatement. She not only takes care of everything for you and would do anything you ask, she is a wonderful person who actually cares about her clients. A small example of what she did for me was she knew that I had a lot of food allergies and I had given up the idea that I would not be able to eat my own wedding cake. She made it her mission to change that. Somehow, Carrie managed to find me a cake that was gluten free, dairy free, honey free, egg free, low sugar, and no processed ingredients that I kid you not was the best cake I ever had. My husband even loved it! The cake itself was so beautiful as well.
Carrie was there for when I say everything, I mean everything! She went to wedding dress fittings and countless meetings with vendors. She studied how to bustle my dress so the day of would go smoothly and she collected all ten of my bridesmaids dresses (AND robes), my dress, and my veil so she could have them the morning of my wedding ready to go, wrinkle free! It was so nice to have her there on my wedding day to keep us on schedule. I was not stressed or worried at all because I knew that Carrie was taking care of everything. Every time I needed Carrie during this whole wedding planning process, she was there. She responded to texts within seconds. Carrie made my wedding so perfect. The entire process would have been so stressful and chaotic without her. I am forever grateful to her. ❤️

We couldn’t have asked for more from Carrie. She was absolutely amazing in every way. From the prep months out, to the day of, she made the experience stress-free and easy. She responds to emails promptly and brings a fresh perspective to the process. One thing that our friends and guests shared after the wedding was how wonderful and on top of it our wedding planner was. We are so glad we had her and wouldn’t recommend anyone else!

Our wedding truly would not have been the same without Carrie and her team. They make wedding planning fun and exciting. If issues come up you won't even know it was a problem until it has been resolved. Carrie and her team take the time to get to know you, so they can provide the best options to fit your personality. They are happy to help with everything, small or big. With Carrie and her team you won't have to worry about a single thing on your wedding day besides saying I do and having the best day of your life!

Carrie was an absolute dream to work with! We could not have created our dream wedding without her! We were blown away with the outcome of our ceremony and reception. She made everything we asked happen, and then exceeded our expectations! The venue looked beautiful! Even the venue staff commented that the place never looked better and was one of the best weddings they have ever seen there. That could not have been said, without Carrie. We highly recommend her to anyone needing assistance with their event. She is very professional, creative and is dedicated to make your vision your dream come true. Carrie is a pleasure to work with and even after our wedding, consider her a good friend.

We were so very impressed by Carrie's genuineness and warmth, her experience and knowledge of the industry as wells as her professionalism!

We were very happy (as well as relieved) to have found someone who we could turn to and lean on to make our special day everything we hoped it could be and more.

Throughout the months of working with Carrie, she never ceased to surprise me, and when she started brainstorming ideas for wedding plans, she really blew my mind and came up with some really cool and novel ideas.

My husband and I are so grateful we had Carrie as our wedding planner turn to as she helped us navigate the myriad of ideas and decisions involved in planning our wedding.

If you want the best, you want Carrie Dayton! She is a rockstar! We are so grateful she helped us to have the most beautiful wedding day ever!

When we decided to throw a big wedding reception to celebrate our wedding, we knew we couldn't do it alone. The first time we met Carrie, we knew we wanted her to be a part of our day. Carrie took the time to get to know us as a couple...when we met, what we love about each other, what we love about each other's family. She really took the time to understand our love for one another and what was important in our lives.

Carrie's experience coordinating other weddings was a definite plus for us...she knew what worked and what didn't work. Anytime we had a question about wedding etiquette, she had an answer for us. She helped us focus on the areas of our wedding and reception that were important to us. She helped us think of things that we would have never thought of.

Carrie was most valuable on the day of our wedding. All of our wedding party and family kept telling us how smoothly the day went. There was no rushing from one activity to another. The day's timeline was set and followed without any hitches. We called Carrie, "Mary Poppins," because she would appear anytime we needed her. Carrie allowed us the opportunity to focus on the day, those special moments that we would have missed if we were focused on other "things." Our wedding day, ceremony and reception were the best moments of our lives, and we were able to enjoy them with our family and friends. Carrie took the wedding day stress away.

And as a bonus, Carrie is now a friend. We can call her or text her just to say What's Up, and we have a good time when we can hang out with her.

Carrie loves couples. She loves love. She loves weddings. All of this is important when you trust someone with one of the most special, memorable days a couple will experience. If you want to enjoy every moment of your special day, please ask to have Carrie by your side. It was an honor to have her be a part of our special day.

My husband and I were married in May 2017 and Carrie and her team were absolutely phenomenal! She was a pleasure to work with, and really took time to get to know my husband and I and identify our personalities and the type of wedding we were trying to plan. She recommended wonderful vendors, made the planning process go smoothly, and helped us enjoy our day to the fullest instead of worrying about the little details. It is obvious that she is well known and loved within the industry, as every time I would mention to someone that she was our wedding planner, they would instantly tell us they knew her and loved working with her. She was incredibly flexible with our busy schedules and very considerate of our time and budget. I cannot say enough positive things about her, and I will continue to recommend her to everyone I know getting married!

After seeing the amazing job she did with my sister-in-law's wedding in Omaha, we knew we needed to hire Carrie for our destination wedding in Hawaii. Carrie was absolutely amazing to work with. Not only did she plan our Hawaiian-themed engagement party in Omaha in less than two weeks, she also planned our destination wedding in Hawaii for 190 guests. Carrie found us amazing local vendors and worked carefully with the hotel and vendors to ensure that the day went smoothly. The day went off without a hitch, and if there was one, Carrie took care of it without us knowing. We were so blessed to have Carrie as our planner!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
