Fantastic!
We had sooooo many compliments on our wedding and it's Carin that made that happen. I suggest you hire her, and when you do, do what she says! If, months before the wedding, she says "get the thank you cards printed at the same time as the invitations, then you don't have to worry about it after the wedding". Do it. She knows what she's talking about!

After graduating from Penn State with a degree in Political Science, Carin moved to Washington, D.C. to pursue work in politics and law. She took a job working in a law firm. After a few months, she started dating one of the lawyers (gasp!) and realized she could no longer stay at the firm. She enrolled in George Washington University’s event planning program. Within the first hour of the very first seminar, she knew she found her place. Two years later, in 2002, Events Extraordinaire was born. With 20 years in the event planning industry, and 18 years as the founder and creator of Events Extraordinaire, Carin Lomax has built relationships with top-notch professionals in the industry. Although her background was in meeting planning, she loved the creative side of special events. With the creation of Events Extraordinaire, she could combine her detail oriented meeting planning skills with her passion for creating fun and memorable special experiences. Carin is often told that her ability to listen to her clients and her calmness in stressful situations sets her apart.
Carin resides in Falls Church, Virginia with her husband Jason, her two teen boys, Justin and Bennett, and their beloved yellow labs, Blaine and Luna.
