Carole and Jazzel were essential to my wedding success. Everything went smoothly with their help. Highly recommend.

Our experience was nothing short of fantastic. Carole responded to every question promptly, kept us on track with making decisions and securing vendors promptly, and provided recommendations for vendors who did wonderful work. Furthermore, on the day of our wedding, she was there to make sure things stayed on track, and even was ready with a sewing kit to step in when the strap of my wedding dress snapped during our first dance. Far and away, working with For the Love of Mackinac was one of the very best decisions we made in our wedding planning journey.

Having Carole as a wedding planner was the best wedding decision we could have possibly made. From day one our entire event was totally stress free. If something needed to be done, or there was something we wanted, Carole was all over it immediately. From venue to DJ, to flowers, to the day of, everything went off exactly as hoped, and beyond our wildest dreams. After years of watching friends and family get married, and to see them stress over everything, I can honestly say my wife and I enjoyed our wedding without a single stress in the entire process thanks to Carole. We could not be more thankful for the services she provided!

Carole and her team were incredible throughout our wedding planning process. We were planning a destination wedding on Mackinac Island (we live in Ohio) and Carole was instrumental in our vendor selection process (from flowers to our welcome reception venue) and vendor coordination the day of our wedding. Her attention to detail was appreciated and she even made sure we had water bottles in our carriage for our carriage ride downtown after the ceremony. Because of Carole and her team, my husband and I were able to be guests at our wedding and our day could not have been more perfect! I would highly recommend Carole if you are planning a wedding on Mackinac Island!

Simply outstanding! We planned an intimate wedding in less than 6 weeks. The destination wedding required hours but every detail perfect!

Carole did vow renewals for my husband and I’s 10 year anniversary and surprise vow renewals for my mom and dad’s 37th wedding anniversary! The reaction that my mom had was priceless and something that none of us will forget. I appreciate how she made everything so easy and seem-less and when we met her it felt we had known her for years. She made our Mackinac stay even more magical!

I am so glad Carole was a part of my wedding day. She was so incredible, I was calling her my fairy godmother by the end of the night! Her connections with local vendors, knowledge of local resources on the Island, professionalism, and overall responsiveness (over email prior, and in person) are just some highlights of her capabilities as an experienced wedding coordinator. Emotions and energy can run high on a wedding day, so her organization and ability to remain focused on our wedding vision and goals really put me at ease. She allowed me to live in the moment and enjoy every minute of my wedding day. Her service is truly the BEST wedding gift you can give yourself.

We had the amazing good fortune to connect with Carol Ebrel ( who we've dubbed "Wedding Planner Extrordinaire"!) for what turned out to be the absolute perfect wedding of our only son.
I truly cannot imagine trying to take care of all of the details that Carole took care of in what seemed like an effortless manner. Her attention to details is absolutely staggering. Not only is she the poster child of professionalism... she is also one of the most kind a caring people we've ever had the pleasure to know. Our only regret is that we only have one child and therefore have no cause to take advantage of Carole in the future!
CANNOT RECOMMEND HER HIGHLY ENOUGH!

Carole did a wonderful job in helping me stay organized and on top of things leading up to the big day. On our wedding day, it rained all day, and she worked extra hard to coordinate with our vendors and the locations to accommodate the rain. Thank you Carole for all the work you did behind the scenes to make our day so special. If you're on the fence about hiring a wedding planner - DO IT! And hire the one that knows Mackinac best.

My husband and I started working with Carole in January 2020 for an August 2021 wedding. Throughout the height of the pandemic, Carole's commitment to our wedding never wavered through all the highs, lows and even uncertainity of our planning process.

We recently had our wedding at Mission Point Resort (August 15, 2021) on Mackinac Island and our wedding weekend and day far exceeded any expectations we had. For the past 18 months, Carole has been incredibly helpful, knowledgable, upbeat, and supportive throughout our duration of working with her. Not a thing went wrong our wedding weekend, but if something had, we are confident the Carole would have figured it out and made it right. Our guests were just as impressed with how the weekend went.

As a destination wedding for us an our guests, Carole knows everything about Mackinac Island and is a respected individual who has fostered amazing relationships with northern MI vendors. She built an amazing arsenal of vendors who we absolutely loved working with. From the photographer, DJ, florist and dessert vendors, all were phenomenal and local to northern MI. We would not have had these amazing connections without Carole's expertise.

We cannot say enough great things about Carole. If you are considering the Mackinac Island wedding of your dreams, Carole and For the Love of Mackinac is who you need to make your dreams a reality!
