Amazing wedding & event planning!
Craig & his team did a wonderful job making our wedding dreams come true! He was available 24/7 to support and assist with anything and everything. Craig was an amazing advisor and his expertise was brilliant. He did a great job managing all of our vendors and organizing wedding day coordination from delivering and decorating to making sure the bride and groom had the best day ever. Our wedding was absolutely stunning and Craig did a beautiful job on all of our floral designs and wedding details. Thank you Craig and ABC events!-

Would Hire Him Again
Craig is an absolute pleasure to work with and is so patient! I am glad that I chose ABC Event services to provide the flowers and other décor for our wedding that took place two weeks ago. Craig was so easy to work with, went above and beyond to bring our vision to life, and was fair in his pricing. We asked him to create a large arch made of white flowers to serve as a backdrop at our church ceremony and sweetheart table at our reception. The arch was stunning and all of our guests were in awe at how it looked. They kept staring at it the whole time, taking pictures in front of it, and asking where we got it! The rest of the décor was also amazing. He did everything we asked, completed all setup in a timely manner, and made it all look so beautiful. I am glad I trusted Craig with our wedding décor and if I could do it all over again, I would choose him over and over. Thank you Craig! -

Beautiful work!
We hired Craig with ABC Event Planning to put together an arbor for our wedding ceremony after seeing an advertisement on Facebook. All I did was let him know which arbor and style we liked, and what our colors were, and Craig brought this beautiful creation to life that really made our ceremony shine. He is super responsive and asks great questions to understand what your vision is. Moreover, the flowers were faux and you really couldn’t tell. It was just beautiful. Guests were even taking pictures under it after the ceremony. Craig provides many services, and although we only used him for this piece I would highly recommend him based off the work he did for us. Thanks so much, Craig, for adding such a beautiful statement piece to our wedding day!-

Just amazing!
My husband and I could not be more grateful for the help and guidance provided by Craig Beckinger and ABC Event Planning. So many people told us ours was the BEST wedding they had ever attended, and we owe it all to Craig and his team. We were only engaged for ninety days, and Craig came in after another event planner dropped the ball. Craig never missed a beat!
Leading up to our big day, Craig had super creative ideas, reminded us of even the most minute details, communicated with our other vendors, and was always available to talk (even at odd, late-evening hours). He met us at his showroom numerous times to lay out the perfect decor for our special day and scheduled tastings with different caterers. He even met me at the floral wholesaler so he was clear about my floral likes and dislikes.
On the day of the wedding, Craig was in close contact with all our vendors, handling the setup of the venue meticulously. Not only did he do everything possible to alleviate our stressors, he far exceeded our expectations with our wedding decor and flowers. Our arch, centerpieces, boutonnieres, and bouquets were absolutely stunning!!! I gave Craig tons of pictures of styles I liked, but he went above and beyond nailing it with every one. All I can say is WOW!!!!
We can’t thank Craig enough for helping us create the wedding of our dreams. He is a floral designer and decor genius… and an incredibly nice guy on top of it all!!!

Wedding After Party
I would love to give an extremely strong recommendation to Craig Beckinger of ABC Event Planning. I met Craig about a year ago. I had explained that I was having an After Party for the woman of my dreams after the wedding itself. I explained my ideas to him with the non cookie cutter approach of what a party after a party after a wedding should look like. I mentioned that traditional wasn’t going to fly and he took the concept and boy did he run. He not only gave me a party that people are still discussing but exceeded every notion of what I had thought I could achieve. He took my midnight calls even though he had other clients that needed his attention. He was creative, savvy, and just willing to do everything possible to make the evening magical. So in closing, if you have an event and need an accomplished winner and just amazing planner, Craig Beckinger is your guy.-

I could not have been more happy with what we have and tounwould be crazy not to choose ABC Event Planning for all of your wedding needs! -

ABC Event Planning did the flowers for my daughter's shower. Craig created the most beautiful floral arrangements. I shared with him what I wanted in the arrangements and he gave me that and more. Because I live out of state I did everything online and on the phone with Craig. He is very professional and creative. So pleased with the results. -

Craig planned both receptions for my parents memorial services. He did a phenomenal job for our Mom,so we chose him again for my Dad's. This time around we were underwhelmed. The most upsetting part was that he said he would drop off the flowers at 1,and he didn't drop them off until 5. The service staffed at 5. Also,they were not done properly,but flower arrangements dripped everywhere,and both broke during transport. The boutonnierses were too heavy and had to be taped to our clothes. Lastly,alot if the flowers werent in good condition. He showed a lack of. Understanding as far as I'm concerned. I also did not appreciate that he told me he was late because he want feeling well. I totally could understand despite what he's been going through,however before accepting the job he should of weighed his health. Also, he assured me that because he had 2 assistants now everything would be on time and as they should be. -

Sweet but Nasty
Craig came off as very friendly, but was rude and unprofessional with my wedding planner. He complained about the amount of money I spent with him and did not indicate that he had a minimum of service or money he would contract for. He told her "he was not a delivery service and did not make any money off the deal." He was also very condescending with me through text after he dropped off the greenery indicating he wish he could have done more for my special day "it would have been beautiful." He did not get one of the greenery types I ordered and swapped it for something else without consulting with me. He delivered dead greenery and babies breath to the venue. I couldn't use the greenery I specifically ordered for my sweetheart table. When I contacted him for a refund I sent him pictures for proof and he was friendly and apologetic and said he would get back to me after he talked to his supplier and then eventually stopped responding to my text. -

Lack of Communication for Wedding
Craig decorated my wedding in September of 2021. Overall, he is a skilled decorator, but difficult to communicate with leading up to the wedding and the day of the wedding.
Leading up the wedding, over a period of months, Craig would take 1-2 weeks to respond to texts about updates. It felt a bit that he procrastinated. I had heard that he was dealing with some health problems, but he did not communicate this.
The day before the wedding, Craig came to the venue to start decorating. He got about 1/3 of the decorations done, and was planning to finish the rest of the decorations the day of the wedding. On the day of the wedding, Craig was supposed to resume decorating at noon-2pm to have everything ready by 5pm when the wedding starts. Around 2pm, Craig hadn't shown up,
and after many phone calls and texts, which were not responded to, my wife and I started to accept that Craig may not be showing up. At 4:30pm, Craig had finally arrived and resumed decorating for the wedding (that starts at 5pm). In the end, he gave us a discount, but the stress was not worth it. He did finish decorating well enough, but again, the stress was too great to fully appreciate his work. -
