Amazing design & coordination services
Caroline has been in the industry for several years and thus has amazing connections with vendors. I booked with every one of her recommendations and had zero regrets! Her timeline management and communication made the day-of feel so much easier, and we were able to focus on being present instead of managing others. She is organized, efficient, and was always available for questions or planning. Caroline has beautiful taste and I was able to trust her opinion 100% when I had design questions! She thoughtfully collected mementos from our wedding night to save as keepsakes, and I am forever grateful. Definitely recommend her for your design and planning coordination!!

The best!!
After working with Caroline to plan our wedding earlier this year, we can confidently say she is the best wedding planner! Her expertise, relationships with vendors, and attention to detail are some of the things that helped make our wedding day absolutely memorable! From our very first intro meeting to wedding day, I felt very supported by Caroline. Even after the wedding, Caroline continued to help me when I was having an issue with another vendor. I recommend Caroline to anyone who is planning a wedding. We truly couldn’t have done it without her.

.10 Stars Isn’t Enough for Volare and Carolyn
Hiring Carolyn with Volare Planning & Design was the best decision I made for my wedding. As a destination bride, I needed someone I could trust—and Carolyn delivered beyond all expectations. She’s professional, warm, incredibly organized, and clearly passionate about her work.
Thanks to her, planning was actually enjoyable, and my wedding day in San Antonio was an absolute dream. Everything was flawless, and her assistant was also amazing. Carolyn was truly a godsend—I can’t recommend her enough!

So worth it!
Working with Caroline Gollner at Volare Planning was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the very beginning, she was incredibly thoughtful and attentive in helping us select vendors that truly reflected us as a couple and fit the style of our day perfectly. Caroline made sure every detail was covered and all our vendors were secured well in advance, which gave us so much peace of mind.
She was always available when we needed her most—whether for meetings, last-minute questions, or timeline changes. As our big day approached, Caroline was amazing at managing and adjusting our schedule to keep everything running smoothly. On the wedding day itself, her assistant Katerina was a huge help in making sure we stayed on time and stress-free.
Caroline also generously lent us several beautiful decor items that added such a special touch to our celebration and helped bring our vision to life. Her dedication, organization, and eye for detail truly made our wedding flawless. We’re so grateful for all her hard work and would recommend her to anyone planning their big day!

In Good Hands :)
Caroline is poised and professional, and excels at communication. She did a stellar job executing our wedding vision. I had several highly specific ideas and requests, and she ensured they were all carried out. She also recommended some great vendors we had never heard of (particularly Asukar, Backstory Backdrops and Dfntly Entertainment). Even though our wedding was small/intimate, there were a lot of moving parts, and we never felt our wedding was not high priority for Caroline. Overall our wedding went smoothly and both we and our guests had a great time! Many of our guests said it was the best wedding they had ever been to. :)
Please have no doubt that your wedding will be in very dedicated, capable hands if you work with Caroline.

100% Invest in Caroline!!!
Caroline is absolutely incredible. She helped me and my husband plan our dream wedding while we were both in medical school and living in 2 different countries and time zones. She can DO IT ALL! If you are wavering if investing in a planner is worth it, I promise Caroline is worth your investment and more. Having a wedding weekend where you can wake up and go to sleep relaxed because you know everything is being taken care of is truly priceless. She is skilled, organized, kind, generous, and a respectful advocate for her brides. She is highly skilled in what she does, her network of other vendors she collaborates with is impressive, and it really made the process of planning the wedding very enjoyable. I was really impressed with how she helped plan our wedding considering it was also on our private ranch almost 2 hours outside San Antonio! I know there was so much work behind the scenes for her but she made it look easy (when I know it was far from it). She thought of all the little details to make the wedding day just perfect- from having our dinner plates ready at our table so we could optimize time with our guests, grabbing our beverages for us, and keeping an eye on the clock so we didn't have to. I am so grateful for her and her hard work she pours straight from her heart to make wedding dreams happen. We love you Caroline!

Professional, knowledgeable, and stress free!
Caroline is an absolutely amazing planner! She’s too kind to say it, but I was a disorganized bride and she was extremely patient and helped to ensure the day was exactly what I wanted! She is so knowledge about all of the pieces that need to come together to make a gorgeous wedding and walked us through everything. My wedding was everything I wanted and it couldn’t have done it without Caroline’s guidance!!
