    Friendly and Organized

    I cannot say enough good things about Christina and Kristy! They responded to my many questions in a timely manner, and went out of their way to make sure my wedding day was everything I had ever dreamed. With all her experience, Christina knew what questions to ask vendors to make sure I was getting the best deals in my contracts. Kristy helped me to visualize my wedding by creating the room layout when my venue manager failed to do so. During the wedding day, they both made sure that I was not bothered with questions from vendors, and that everything ran smoothly. It was honestly the best day ever and I'm so glad that I got to work with them!

    Thank you so much Christina and Maria! Christina officiated our wedding and was so nice to work with. She was very professional and easy to work with. She provided my husband and I with a special ceremony that fit our personalities perfectly! Thank you so much for helping us create such a special day - I don't think there was a dry eye in the room after the hands ceremony!
    Maria did an amazing job helping coordinate everything on the day of! It would not have happened without her! She was a huge help, and so nice to work with!
    I would not think twice about recommending you!

    Exceeded my high expectations

    As an event coordinator myself, I had very high expectations for my wedding day! It was hard to think of giving over control of this important day to someone else...until I realized what being in Tara’s hands meant! She understood my desire to have a wedding that embraced Jon and I’s community. She rallied my wedding party around various tasks in a way that made everyone feel included and put to use the many helping hands I had that day. She allowed me to relax and focus on time getting ready with my mom and daughter. Every detail was lovingly attended to in a way that made Jon & I feel supported and exceeded my very high expectations. It was amazing to have a coordinator I could trust to execute every aspect of my wedding vision!

    Christina officiated our wedding at Childress Vineyards and we loved her! She met with us a few months prior and showed us ceremony options and was very flexible in really capturing exactly what we wanted in our wedding ceremony. We knew we wanted both modern and traditional vows, and she absolutely delivered! She's the sweetest!

    Christina was absolutely wonderful! She did such an amazing job including my step daughter in the ceremony. The words were so meaningful and tailored to us as a couple. She was so helpful and very reassuring through the whole wedding. I would recommend her services to anyone!!

    My husband and I had such a great experience with Christina, and would recommend her to anyone looking for an officiant. I would suggest booking her far in advanced because she will scooped up quick! She responded right away and met with us to go over our wishes for the wedding. She had many options to choose from and we were able to edit our vows to make them our own. She is modern and makes sure that she gets to know you so she can accommodate your wedding accordingly. Not only was she tasteful in her choices, but she was personable and made us feel comfortable. She made sure to keep in contact, during the months up to the wedding so as to see if we had any changes or requests.

    The wedding planning process can be difficult especially when my wedding was going to be about 8 hrs from my home because of which I knew I needed someone to help. Christina and her team were great and flexible to my special needs, we had to use different means to communicate due to the distance, they did not allow this to hinder the planning process thus my wedding was perfect!

    We were planning our beach wedding from a state away. As a very nervous bride, Christina made me feel comfortable that everything would work out. She handled everything and even told me not to worry about things that she would handle it! Even when it started to rain as it was almost time for our guest to head to the beach, we had to use our plan "b" and she handled it very quick and professionally. It all worked out nicely!

    Christina Mathews, was amazing!!! Not only did she have to deal with my wife's and I's schedule and non communication due to our jobs, she had to put this together in just a few months. She also had to deal with a very difficult location and lighting situation.

    She was with us every step of the way, from the cake to the location, she is a one stop shop. She has great contacts within her network and was able to get everything we needed. The night was beautiful and most of all she made my wife and family so happy! Thanks Christina!!!!

    Christina truly made the wedding of my dreams happen. I had a very small and simple wedding, and I felt she completely understood and followed through withy vision. I did not knoe the first thing about planning weddings, but she guided me through the whole thing. The photographer she provided us with (Stephanie) was equally amazing. Everyone involved were very impressed with all that she did. I would definitely recommend Christina to anyone and everyone. Thank you so much, Christina!

    Christina was amazing...I can't say enough about the services she provided for us. I'm a last minute person and really didn't want to do a wedding and wouldn't have if it hadn't been for my husbands daughter. I contacted Christina about a month before the planned date and she was able to arrange everything. I just found what I wanted online and sent her pictures of everything and she was able to make it happen. We used her to find the location of the wedding, hair and makeup, cake, flowers and pastor. She did all the work at very reasonable rate, she is worth so much more than what she charges! I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to get married in the St. Pete/Tampa area...she is simply wonderful!!!

    Christina coordinated our wedding in Asheville, NC this past April. We are so incredibly thankful that we chose her! She coordinated with all of our vendors, set up our ceremony and reception, and made sure that we kept on schedule! She made the entire experience seamless so that we could enjoy our wedding day, our family and friends, and most importantly, each other.
    She has all of the qualities that we needed in a day of coordination vender; experience, professionalism, efficiency. We highly recommend her to any couple!

    Christina was a wedding planner for 3/2/13 and I am so glad we chose her! She was also our officiant and helped us write our vows as well. From start to finish, Christina was very helpful and offered great advices that relieved a lot of our stresses. Christina was very easy to communicate with as well as very responsive. She met with us several times even when she lived at least 45 minutes away. On our wedding day, I was almost stress free. She took care of all details of the wedding and all I did was enjoyed being a bride. She took care of all communications with our vendors and made sure everyone was on time and up to par on the day. Christina, I have told you many times but I still wanted to thank you again for helping us with our wedding. Not only are you affordable for all the work that you put in, but you are very organized and contributed so much to our big day. I loved your officiant speech and I am so glad you encouraged us to write our own vows. It made our wedding so much more personable to our guests. Again, thank you so much and I would recommended her service to any bride who wants an almost stress free wedding day.

    Coming from the UK where wedding 'planners' are not the norm, I cannot begin to describe how much of a difference Christina made to the planning and preparation of our beach wedding on Anna Maria Island. We wanted something fairly low key, as it is a second marriage for both of us, and it was an absolutely perfect day. Christina organised EVERYTHING, even down to her choosing the flowers for my bouquet (by my request), and they were beautiful! She made the whole process painless, and completely effortless on our part...
    I found Christina to be prompt with her responses (mostly conducted via email), and extremely helpful. She provided us with contacts for flowers, wedding cakes, and hair and make-up, which trying to organise this from 4,500 miles away is no mean feat, but I instantly trusted Christina to make our day wonderful, and it was, and she did.
    If you are from the UK, and are thinking of coming to the US to get married, don't hesitate to contact Christina, the whole process is a piece of cake, and would thoroughly and utterly recommend it! It was fabulous, as was Christina!!!

    We were married on the beach in Longboat Key, FL on 6/24/11 and Christina was our officiant and assisted us with planning. Words can not begin to express how grateful we are to her for all of her help. Our family and friends are still raving over how amazing the ceremony was. She helped us to incorporate my 2 children in the ceremony and we completely customized every part of the ceremony to reflect who we are as a couple/family and break away from all of the traditional "stuff" we have heard a million times before. My family STILL gets teary-eyed trying to tell other about it!! Being from NJ, it was intimidating to try to plan a wedding from far away without knowing which vendors were reputable and who to trust, but Christina helped us with all of that and relieved our fears/concerns. She was very responsive, calm and professional. I felt relieved the second she arrived on our wedding day and "took over". It helped me to relax and enjoy everything. I HIGHLY recommend Christina to anyone. Christina, thank you for helping us have a wedding day that FAR exceeded our dreams. We are forever grateful!!

    Christina did an amazing job making our day special and memorable. She had wonderful ideas and seemed to know just what we needed...even from 5 states away!!! She is very professional and enjoys finding those special touches...which was exactly what I wanted. She was patient with the kids in our wedding ...even when I wasn't. :)

    I would recommend her to anyone getting married...she does great work and has many resources that were very useful to me. I didn't meet her until the day of our wedding, but she was always a phone call away leading up to it. It felt like I knew her personally and made us a priority.

    Thank you Christina, for everything!!!

    Christina did a wonderful job through out the wedding process. We used her "day-of" services and she coordinated everything perfectly. She worked the vendors, created a time line, and made sure all the details were in place. We had no issues and everything went smoothly. I would definitely recommend her to any bride - she will definitely take the stress off of you on your special day.

    Our wedding was on April 17, 2010 at the Tradewinds Resort and we hired Christina early on to help us with all of the planning. That was the smartest move we made. She was wonderful right from the beginning and was there for us every step of the way all the way to the end of the reception. She went with us to help pick out flowers and decide on cakes but she never tried to sway us, she just sat with us, gave suggestions and helped us remember to ask the right questions of the vendors. We received so many compliments on our ceremony and reception and I told everyone that it was all because of Christina. We loved her!!

    A Beautiful Day by Christina's reply:

    Dear Nancy and Kevin,
    Thank you so much the this review. As I have told you lots of times you were both a joy to work with. I can only hope all my future clients are as nice as the two of you! I recently received a new planning job for next Spring and it was due in large part to this review.

    From the outset, Christina was an invaluable source of help, advice and information and we were over the moon with her services. She was a constant source of guidance, providing us with all the information we have needed to make the right decisions for our big day. She is very efficient, always getting back to us promptly and has consistently gone the extra mile to ensure our wedding day was as we always dreamed. We simply could not have done it without her!

    Planning an wedding overseas is never an easy task. It can be hard to find reputable suppliers when you cannot have the face-to-face communication with people. Christina helped us overcome hurdles on the way by recommending the best possible suppliers. She pointed us in the right direction for florists, accommodation, beauty salons, restaurants and photographers, and has regularly spoken to these suppliers, negotiating on our behalf. This certainly helped cut down on the astronomical cost of international calls!

    She booked many appointments for us, and spent time confirming all the arrangements. She was always accommodating to our requests and I can honestly say nothing has been too much trouble for her. In particular, she devoted a lot of time to ensuring all our ceremony wording was tailored perfectly to us (we spent a while agonizing over those!). It also rained on our original day so Christina came back to marry us the following day instead when the weather had improved. This would not have been possible with a UK wedding.

    We are so happy to have chosen Christina as our wedding planner. Our wedding could not have been in more capable hands. She helped ensure our big day was as stress-free and as happy as we have always wanted. Thank you so much Christina!

    Faye & Adam, UK (happy clients of Christina Mathews of Weddings by Christina)
