Absolutely Wonderful!

My daughter’s wedding was a DREAM! And that is because of the hard work and talent of Carissa Melendez and Momentous Weddings! She and her team are so hard-working, organized, sweet, and incredibly knowledgeable about how to put a wonderful wedding event together. The event turned into a magical experience for everyone involved. I had so many people tell me it was the best wedding and I’ve gotten a few thank you notes already. In addition, Carissa helped put the right people together like the photographer, florist, and all the other vendors and this made all the difference. Everyone was talented, creative, attentive to details, and worked hard having everything seamlessly come together for the best wedding day! We could not have done it without her and couldn’t be happier about the result! Carissa is an amazing person to work with! She guided us every step of the way, and so the wedding day was easy for all of us, and the bride and groom had the BEST day ever! We are forever grateful to Carissa!

The best decision ever

There are no words to express the amazingness of Carissa Melendez and her team. NO WORDS. From our first meeting, she connected with us and made the wedding planning process easy and enjoyable. She planned the wedding of our dreams. She took the vision exactly as it was in my head and created it in real life. It was the greatest day of my entire life!!! She is supportive, kind, creative, hard-working, and incredibly talented. I can't imagine a better wedding planner than her. She goes ABOVE AND BEYOND (and that somehow feels like an understatement). She genuinely cares and loves her career, which is so clearly evident. Working with MWED was the best decision. I love Carissa!!!!
