It was a pleasure working with Carol for my daughters wedding. Whenever I had any questions or suggestions she’d listen and either respond or work with my daughter to make sure it was still within her vision for her day. She was easy to work with and did her job making sure the vision became a reality. Thanks Carole.

We started working with Camilla of Corazon Events a year before our wedding, and well before we had any idea we would be getting married during a pandemic. Camilla gracefully and graciously helped us turn our large wedding into a small, intimate event at home. We could never have done it without her, and she and her team made our event go off without a hitch. We are so grateful to have worked with you and gotten to know you, Camilla!

A piece of our minds regarding the gift of planning peace of mind. It is our great privilege to tell you about our experience with Vicki and Jerry Newsom. As we looked for help planning our New Mexico wedding, a close friend offered us a few recommendations. Orange September immediately stood out to us after learning they are a husband and wife team, working in unison to help other couples celebrate this momentous event. Our first conversation over the phone highlighted one of the great keys to their success - they are incredible listeners. The discussion was in many ways like a first date, or a mutual interview; a collaboration that asked both sides if they wanted to dance with the other. The “date” went smoothly because of the ease at which they put you, giving us permission to freely express who we are and how we wanted to celebrate. Our decision to let them guide us on this adventure was a simple one. As the business of planning moves forward, you begin to see the staggering amount of details required to complete the dream that we, as couples, formulate and are continuing to develop during the months leading up to the wedding - details we never would have considered, nor would we have time to. Vicki and Jerry deftly guide you with recommendations, using their vast network of connections to maximize your budget. To witness the reciprocal respect between the vendors and Orange September continually validated our decision to hire them. Multiple vendor solutions were always presented, matching us with potential partners in the shared mental model we had developed, and without exception every vendor we chose gushed about coming together again to work with Orange September. It was not only us who noticed the care involved in this process. Members of our families sought out Vicki at the wedding, expressing heartfelt gratitude for finding ways to care for the many specific needs of various family members. From accessibility issues to dietary restrictions, their attention to detail allowed us to simply be in the moment of the celebration. This never could have happened without the trusting relationship Vicki and Jerry cultivated with us. Our wedding experience was all we could have hoped for and more. Vicki and Jerry are truly gifted in articulating your wishes - they look into your heart and deliver an event that makes you feel like you are their only client. Their own vision statement says it perfectly, "We take pride in seeking the road a little less traveled, pulling inspiration from the daily lives and real life to create timeless and effortless experiences for couples and their guests. Every event should be visually inspiring from the moment your guests arrive until it's time for them to say goodbye. Our goal is to create just that … environments where people will want to stay a little longer, reconnecting with family and friends and depart wishing it to never end." That is exactly how we felt. We feel so lucky to have chosen them as our wedding planners, and even more lucky to now call them friends. Shawna and Joey Hemphill est. September 22, 2018

We interviewed several potential wedding planners and Lauren was the clear choice. She understood that my personality was more about the details and logistics than about the creative side of things. She totally filled in where I needed help creating a vision and pulling it off. Not only does she have the ability to execute on a vision, but she knows the vendors and venues in Santa Fe. Her recommendations and relationships with the vendors made for such a great experience. We could not have pulled it off without her!

We hired Cassie from Tasteful Events by Tomas for our Santa Fe elopement, and it was the best decision we could have made. We reached out to Tomas' company about 6 weeks before we ideally wanted to show up and get married, and Cassie was just brilliant. Not at all thrown for a loop by our short timeline, she took it all in and ran with it, when we told her we wanted everything but the audience--hotel, ceremony venue, cake, flowers and photographer. She helped us find everything we needed and stayed on top of every detail right up until our wedding. We trusted her to hold our 8 month old baby while we got married, if that tells you anything about how we felt about her! Cassie is warm, kind, patient (but has the right sense of urgency about wedding details!), and just all-around great at this work. If anything even started to look like it might go off the rails, she was on it before we could blink. We'd hire her again in a heartbeat!

Natalie and Celine are not only pros in the event planning business but are an absolute pleasure to work with throughout the entire process. Although they already had three other weddings scheduled the weekend of my big day, they agreed to take on our out-of-town wedding as well. They have top-of-the line quality products at reasonable prices and are quick to offer their creative vision in designing the perfect concept. They ran out of gold chiavari chairs the week of my wedding due to their high demand so they upgraded me to their vineyard chairs for the same price! I was thrilled! They added a personal touch to my wedding and I will undoubtedly go to Occasion for all my future event needs!
