Carley is the absolute best!

I cannot explain how amazing Carley was to work with! Our wedding was October 8, 2021. We hired her back in Nov 2020 and she was so helpful throughout every step of the wedding planning process. She had a wedding planning check list, budget spreadsheet, and a day of timeline. We had scheduled times to meet and chat about planning and she was always available whenever I needed to chat about something. Carley made my wedding day run so smoothly! I didn't have to worry about being person for vendors or to answer questions. I got to enjoy my day and be in the moment. Carley was my go to person for those vendors and mishaps and she went above and beyond what I expected. She is the absolute sweetest and truly cares about you as a couple. If you are on the fence about hiring her, go for it! I cannot recommend her enough!

The best investment made for our wedding

Carley from Lovebird Events was honestly my saving grace through the planning process. She made is very convenient to schedule the every 6ish week meetings. Highly organized, and honestly so friendly. It’s like if your best friend was your wedding planner. Carley helped find a variety of vendors for me when my brain, just couldn’t and I had decision fatigue. She connected with all of my vendors prior to the wedding an ensured that they were ready to fall in line for the big day. She discovered a couple of holes that the vendors weren’t covering which would have been pretty tragic day of, and we were able to hurry to fix the week of the wedding. There were a couple of instances that I was like “ahh I’m panicking” and she was like girl don’t let’s hop on a call, and figure it out. Of everything I picked, and planned, and of all the vendors Carley is the one that I would choose again, and again, and again. She brought the most value for what I needed, and is so affordable (Carley you deserve more money!). Carley ran our rehearsal, and I of course was having a little mental breakdown when I arrived she and I had a real quick brainstorm, and I was able to brain dump everything before we got the rehearsal started, she ran everything and used her “teacher voice” which I loved when you need to deal with groomsmen, and a bit group of people. The day of the wedding Carley was there when the venue opened and was the maestro for the day. She got everything setup, and made sure everyone was on the timeline, made sure my husband and I were good, and were having a good time. She kept everything cleaned up with the venue staff, and did the tear down. At the end of the night I literally couldn’t stop hugging her because our day was perfect, and she had her hand on every piece, and I was going to miss talking to her. If there is one thing you need for your wedding it’s Carley. 15/10 highly recommend.
