The best invesment

Liliana and Cristina were truly so fun and easy to work with!! They were always one step ahead and had every detail planned for. I was worried about time on the wedding day because I’m always late for everything but they of course planned ahead for that. I felt so relaxed and at ease on my wedding day and it was all due to their amazing planning and time management. They helped make my vision a reality and I will always be grateful to the Handcrafted team for that!! If you’re looking for a planner in PR, seriously look no further!! Thank you again Liliana and Cristina! ♥️

Destination wedding planning made easy!

We could not have asked for a better team to help us plan our destination wedding than Liliana, Cristina and everyone at Handcrafted! As someone who works in the event industry (the Bride), it was a little nerve racking handing over one of the most important days of your life to a stranger. We interviewed about 10 local planners, and Liliana easily came out ahead of everyone. She won us over with her incredibly thoughtful and detailed planning strategy, and we also felt like we had the strongest chemistry with her team. She made planning so seamless for us, which was a great comfort doing everything long distance from our home in Nashville, TN. It was clear that all of the best vendors adore and respect the Handcrafted team because they prioritized meetings with us over couples who had our same wedding date. Fast-forward to the wedding weekend, it was literally perfection! I (the Bride again) was cool as a cucumber because I knew the Handcrafted team would ensure everything went smoothly. We could really focus on being present with our guests and enjoying the celebrations fully. The only minor drama was the power going off just before the first looks. I'm so thankful that Liliana was with me on the top floor of our hotel because she handled everything and kept us calm. All of our family and friends said it was one of the best weddings they have ever been to. I will trust no one but the Handcrafted team with our major family celebrations in the future.

Liliana, Cristina, and the HCW team are worth their weight in gold! They truly made the planning process "stress-free". They were well-organized, comprehensive, compassionate, and communicative.
