Cristina is an amazing wedding planner/coordinator. We initially met her 10 months before our wedding date, and she was great during the initial planning stages. As we changed details of what our wedding should be, she was able to incorporate those changes into our vision and be creative on many details that we needed help executing. She did not forget any detail and made our vision a reality. The night was amazing, and there is nothing we would change. The decor embodied our theme, and her vendor recommendations were spot on. She also made us feel at ease as the time got closer because she was on top of everything. She even helped us with various wedding etiquette tips. She thought of it all. Cristina is amazing, and if you want your special day to be all that you imagined and more, choose her to plan your wedding.

Cristina was fabulous from beginning to end. I had never been a maid of honor before and for months before the wedding Cristina helped me with my duties -- from planning the bachelorette party to what to expect the day of with hair, make-up, etc. The day of the wedding, Cristina took care of EVERYTHING from start to finish so that the entire wedding and reception went flawlessly. Also, every detail at the wedding was beautiful and meshed with the wedding theme. I would hire to Cristina to plan any event I have in the future.

I was a bride that had some visions but didnt have the time or energy to put together the pieces. After two meetings with Cristina- she understood my desires, added things I never knew I wanted.. .and designed, planned, and executed a remarkable day. I had just started a new job and it was the holiday season, and she made wedding planning in 4 months a very good experience. Loved her ideas, her attention to detail (truly outstanding), her patience and respect with vendors, and overall excellent understanding of the industry!
Time was when a bride or groom could easily work with family and friends to pull together a wonderful wedding day or event. These details now can overwhelm anyone. Often with full days of work that last until, and through, the weekend, a client has little or no time to devote the attention needed to create a truly memorable event. Cristina Maria not only has a fantastic attention to detail, but a dedicated support staff to allow that attention to full fruition. True story, Clients gift to guest are freshly baked donuts from a local location, donuts aren't delivered, less than 5 minutes before they are due, Cristina is out the door to go get the donuts, and the event goes on without a hitch!
That is the kind of dedication your event deserves right?
