The triple O: Organized, Optimistic and On-point!

I couldn’t recommend Nina and her team enough. Nina was organized and had the best attitude through the process. She was poised when I was nervous or anxious, and knew how to guide me. The venue I originally wanted was booked solid, and Nina helped me to find and fall in love with an option I never would have considered. Nicole on her team held me down on the day of and I couldn’t be more grateful. The day was beautiful!

10/10 Would highly recommend The Cosmos!

We hired The Cosmos for Month-of services. I was convinced I didn’t need a planner when I started to plan for my wedding, but started to feel anxious and overwhelmed as we got closer to the date. A friend of mine worked with Nina a few years ago and connected us. She made me feel at ease and quickly identified things I had overlooked. The event was in better shape, and I stopped feeling nervous and just had a blast. Nicole was our onsite coordinator for the day of. She is hilarious and if anything carried me through morning so that by the time the ceremony started I was relaxed and ready. I would recommend this team to anyone looking for a month-of coordinator.

The best! Made our Palm Springs Wedding SO special!!

I couldn't recommend Nina and her team more! If you're on the fence, hire The Cosmos! I had so many nerves about making our wedding perfect and a lot of family to make happy, and take care of. I had so many ideas of what I wanted for our destination wedding, but Nina's very balanced nature helped me to "be edited :)" and make choices that made everything look beautiful and come together all in a day I will cherish forever.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
