Marissa Sent on 08/25/2023Cristina is incredible!
Cristina is incredible! We are so happy we had her help us navigate the month leading up to our wedding and on our wedding day. During every phone call she walked us through every single aspect of our wedding planning. She did not miss a beat! Her professionalism, helpfulness, friendliness, and patience throughout the whole process was above and beyond. We don’t know what we would have done without her! If you are thinking about hiring a month-of planner, look no further. -

Noelle Sent on 11/25/2019Best thing we did...
...was hire Cristina! To summarize me, I was a pretty organized bride with a 12 tabbed Google Sheets document. I kinda plan for my career, so planning a wedding was not all that bad. However, I knew the few months leading up to the wedding that things would get crazy and wasn’t sure I could do it all. Hence my search for a day of coordinator began and lead me to Cristina. She is the most organized, patient, flexible accommodating person ever. She managed coordinating between my many vendors with ease and only contacted me and my now husband when necessary. She was thoughtful and brought details and questions to my attention That I would have never, ever thought of. I highly recommend Cristina and her team to anyone planning a wedding. It will be the best thing you decide to do. Seriously! -

Cristina of Carisma's Party Planning was great to work with from the first phone call. I hired her as a day-of coordinator, but her services which I paid for at a very reasonable price came with phone calls and assistance up to a month before the actual date of the event!
She has a GREAT attitude-- she listens to your concerns and notes every little detail and does not miss anything. She is also good at offering up her suggestions based on past experience, and this perspective is very helpful when wedding planning! With Cristina, I never felt like I was in the wrong hands, and always felt more reassured that the day would turn out as planned after each conversation with her. Also, if you ever have a question, she answers immediately-- and that is not an understatement. She replies within seconds of my texts/emails/calls!
On the actual day of the wedding, Cristina navigated the day perfectly. As a DIY bride who did not hire a decorator/designer, some things did not get done on my end and I did not even really have the time to flesh out a detailed to do list for Cristina, which I had meant to do. Nevertheless, the morning of the wedding we briefed her duties before I slipped into my dress, and she made it all happen. ( Of course, I would not recommend that you stretch her thin and push her to these limits--learn from my mistakes! Give yourself plenty of time to do everything!) When we got back from the church to the reception site, I was very happy to see that everything was in place and looked just as I had imagined in my head. Thank you, Cristina, for helping keep my stress levels down and doing the background work so I could focus on celebrating the moment with my new husband, family and friends! I am a very detail oriented person, and Cristina hit all the marks! I would recommend her in a heartbeat to anyone planning a wedding! --Jes & Brian -

Karina Sent on 09/16/2025Cristina is beyond amazing + the best value!!!
OMG. I am still over the moon about the wedding Cristina planned for us!! I was in such a panic having to plan my wedding from Florida without one trip back to The Jersey Shore and Cristina was my savior!! Not only was her price a terrific value, she was incredible professional, thorough and kept all of us in line throughout the stages of planning - I wanted to be heavily involved but didn't know what it would take to build out a venue of our own - and Cristina was on top of everything!!! I didn't get to make it back to meet her until the day of but she made my day/evening so magical even during thunderstorms!! I am beyond grateful and wish we could plan more wedding together!!! She helped me navigate my family dynamics and was always available when I needed her. She worked with all the vendors and ensured set up went so smooth. I love her!! -

Christal Sent on 06/07/2024Amazing, Speechless, Caring!
Where do I start?!
I started planning my wedding in 2022. I never thought I would need a wedding planner nor a wedding coordinator, I really thought I had everything planned and the days would fall into place. Let me just say my wedding was two weekends & consisted of 4 days. I was in for my money. I am so so happy I decided to look on thumbtack and searched day and night until I found carismas design! Cristina is an angel sent to help all brides who have done all their DIYs and want their dream wedding to be executed as planned. Cristina & I started doing phone calls at least two/three months in advance of my wedding. The phone calls became so regular I miss them up until now & my wedding was two weeks ago! The Carisma’s team from Cristina to Vicky & Jermey all of them are such wonderful people! I could not have had the most beautiful and relaxed wedding if it was not for this team. They handled it all and did more work that was agreed to. They will meet all of your expecting and then some! For now and forever I will always recommend getting a wedding coordinator to eliminate the stress off of yourself when it come to the wedding day - believe it or not even when you plan it down to the que, it will never go that way, but this team will make sure they do their best to make everything go smoothly. So many thank yous! I can always look back on my wedding and say I had an amazing time because of Cristina & Carismas Design!
Xoxo, your 2024 two weekend memorial bride ❤️ -

Yvette Sent on 12/19/2022Phenomenal, Friendly, Detail-Oriented Wedding Coordinator
It was a pleasure working with Cristina from Carismas Design for our month of wedding coordinator. Cristina was so responsive and easy to communicate with throughout the process - we were so appreciative of her flexibility, friendliness, and professionalism. We saw Cristina go above and beyond to ensure our wedding day went smoothly - from numerous meetings to discuss all the details, to contacting our vendors, to arriving early and being so hands on during the wedding event. Cristina is the epitome of detail-oriented - making sure everything was taken care of and that we had all the nuts and bolts in place. In addition, we were blown away by her cultural sensitivity as our wedding involved Jewish and Latin traditions. Cristina was patient, asked questions, and listened to our many lengthy explanations with a smile, curiosity, and interest - and most importantly, ensured that these traditions were implemented smoothly at the wedding. Our wedding also has a lot of logistical complexity as it was in a loft with a raw space that required a room flip between cocktail hour, ceremony, and dinner - all went smoothly and efficiently. I cannot recommend Cristina enough!!!! I am so thankful for finding her and working with her - we had such a fabulous wedding day due to her hard work and coordination! -

Jasmine Sent on 11/28/2018Wedding Planning Savior
Wedding planning savior! That’s what Cristina has been. My fiancé and I live very busy non traditional lives. I am in health care and work nights. He is in the military and has been overseas for the majority of our planning. With our schedules, and very opinionated families, we were looking for someone to help lessen wedding planning stress.
From the start Cristina has helped us with establishing a budget, meeting with vendors, negotiating contracts, designing save the dates, to solving unexpected issues. My fiancé and I had an unexpected life event that changed his availability for our engagement shoot. When our photographers were unavailable during his short, unexpected home visit, we were bummed. I was stressed. Cristina didn’t flinch. She used her resources and scheduled us another amazing photographer for our engagement shoot. Not only is Cristina knowledgeable, she also has a warming personality that every bride needs. In the end, you want to like the people you are working with and you’ll love her. I even referred her to my good friend who is also getting married next year. -

Caroline Sent on 09/28/2022Absolutely incredible
Cristina was an absolute gem to work with- I hired her as our month of coordinator (and day of coordinator). She took the time to connect with me weekly, for easily an hour at a time, liaised with vendors, and brought up minutiae that was so important but that I wouldn’t have known myself. She’s the sweetest person, and it’s abundantly clear how much she cares about her brides and her commitment to excellence. I truly cannot recommend her highly enough. Thank you so much, Cristina! -

Nicole Sent on 08/04/2021Can't imagine my wedding without Carisma Design, LLC.
We hired Cristina and Carisma Design for month of wedding coordination and it was the best decision we could have made! Cristina was instrumental in making the event run seamlessly and successfully by working with vendors to ensure accuracy and timelines. She also was a huge help with guiding the logistical aspects that we didn't even consider! During the wedding day, her and her assistant Jenny were amazing!!! They made sure our guests were comfortable and went above and beyond to smooth over any hiccups. We were completely stress free the whole night thanks to their efforts. I am so happy that we found Carisma Design to make our wedding perfect!!! Thank you Cristina! -

Janelle Sent on 09/15/2020The Wedding Planner Everyone Needs!
I hired Cristina at Carismas Design in April 2019, knowing that I would need some help planning my August 2020 wedding. From my initial meeting with Cristina, I knew that she was the planner I needed! Her energy and responsiveness are amazing! When the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency began to impact our wedding, we had so many questions. Cristina answered all of my questions and eased my concerns immediately.
She helped to plan my micro-wedding at a completely new venue, hired vendors, and created a perfect timeline - all within three weeks! Having Cristina by my side at every step of the way was everything that I could ask for. I appreciate her attention to detail, charisma, and knowledge of the industry. I would 100% recommend Carismas Design to any couple looking for full, day of, or month-of coordination. -

She helped turn an unusual ceremony location into our dream wedding!
Cristina gets the job done! I knew I needed a day of coordinator when I booked Cristina 3-4 months before our wedding, but I didn't know how fundamental she would end up being. We were having a ceremony on the roof top of our apartment building in Brooklyn before a reception at a local brewery in the neighborhood. Without Cristina, we simply would not have been able to pull off having a ceremony in such an unusual location. She helped up navigate getting 75 chairs up six flights of stairs, made sure everything was ready at the ceremony venue and the reception venue, set up champagne for the guests to toast as we finished watching the sunset from the roof, and made sure we were all on schedule throughout the day. To top it off, her husband Jeremy came and helped her out so that we wouldn't have to pay an extra day of chair rentals. While the guests were arriving, Jeremy even helped two of our older relatives with mobility issues walk up the six flights of stairs. He was so kind and patient and we are so grateful that he made our relatives truly feel at ease in our unusual wedding venue.
My husband and I are so grateful to both Cristina and Jeremy, they gave us our dream wedding! THANK YOU!!!!! -

Ana Sent on 02/22/2022Best wedding coordinator there is
Cristina was the best decision I made in all of my wedding planning. She helped me with every detail and made my big day flow effortlessly. In every each phone call that we had, she helped me narrow down decisions and come up with even better options that I hadn't considered. She also pays attention to every detail and makes you feel heard and appreciated. Her timeline for the day was perfectly executed down to the minute so no second was wasted. If you are looking for someone to help you make sense of the chaotic day ahead, look no further because she is truly the best! -

Courtnee' Sent on 04/26/2019Don't Make Plans Without Carismas Party Planning
Most people believe they can plan a wedding on their own but the reality is my husband and I could not have planned our wedding without Cristina. She is so knowledgeable and has many connections in the wedding industry. We hired her shortly after getting engaged and she continues to work with us now even after our wedding day. Leading up to the wedding Cristina walked us through venue tours, price negotiations, contract readings, engagement photo shoots, invitation designs, timeline details, music selections, and more. The day of the wedding Cristina ensured that everything went smoothly despite the unexpected bumps in the road. On my end, my makeup artist did not show up and Cristina called another makeup artist who came within 20 minutes and did an amazing job on me and the bridal party. On my husbands end, he left his entire suit at home but was able to go to a shop to purchase another one. Cristina managed to keep my husbands mishap from me and mine from him, she also kept us calm and helped us to have an amazing wedding day. We highly recommend Cristina, she is the best in her field! -

Erin Sent on 10/11/2017Cristina was so helpful throughout the whole process. Always answered emails and texts immediately and always had helpful responses. She reached out and confirmed everything with all vendors the month before the wedding and created a timeline for vendors for the day of the wedding. I hired a lot of vendors and she was able to organize and handle them all. In addition, I had a lot of additional decor that I wanted set up for the wedding and she put it all together just like I wanted. My florist was late the day of the wedding and she reached out to them and smoothed everything out, with out any problems. We also had a large bridal party with many different personalities and she was able to handle the group without a problem and kept things organized and under control. Definitely worth every penny and more! She made the day run smoothly and made my day perfect and stress free! -

Brianna Sent on 11/27/2024Hire Cristina!!!
Cristina was a godsend in the planning process!! From the start of our first phone call she made me feel so at ease and calmed so many of my anxieties regarding planning. She helped us design the most beautiful Save the Dates and invites and mailed out all of them for us which was so extremely helpful. From there, she coordinated so well with all of our vendors which helped the day move along seamlessly. She was quick to take care of any small fires that arose during the day itself as well. I could not recommend Cristina enough. If you have any anxiety at all regarding the planning process/the day of- hire Cristina and she will make sure that you have the wedding day of your dreams.
