My husband and I got married on 02.22.2024 and we were LUCKY enough to have booked Christina Hope “The Bride Whisperer” as our Day of Coordinator. When you get engaged and begin to plan a wedding, NO ONE prepares you for the amount of stress you’re about to endure-not your family, not your friends, and not even your friends who have recently gotten married. Wedding planning is having a full time job on top of the full time job you already have, and more often than not, beyond overwhelming. But when I tell you hiring Christina Hope alleviated a lot of stress and made everything that was initially overwhelming-underwhelming, I mean it. Her years of experience as a wedding / event Day of Coordinator really allowed us as a couple to take a deep breath, relax, and enjoy more of our time as a newly engaged couple, all while planning what we can now say was the wedding of our dreams- thanks to Christina. Her attentiveness, understanding, personality, knowledge of great vendors, and eye for detail are what make her unique. Not only will Christina take the time to understand you as a couple, but will also execute your true wedding vision; and I’m still in awe with how she exceeded ours!
Whether you are a traditional or modern bride- every bride needs “The Bride Whisperer” and there’s only one, it’s Christina Hope. If you’re looking to host an event, look no further than “Events by Christina Hope.” -

If you are looking for the best of the best, look no further! Christina knows exactly what I am thinking without me even saying it. From her attention to details to planning my entire Park Chateau wedding, she is there no matter what. The help and guidance she provided during planning and the day of my wedding had beyond exceeded my expectations. She handled everything and more so that I didn’t have to - Because of her, my now husband and I were able to fully enjoy ourselves from beginning to end. She thoughtfully took care of everything for us and was a joy to partner with. There are just not enough words to describe how amazing and knowledgeable she is, I recommend her to anyone and plan to continue using her expertise for future events! If it was possible to give more than 5 stars, I definitely would! -

WORTH EVERY PENNY! Those were the words of my now husband on our wedding day! Christina and Shane absolutely made the day. From every detail to just making sure I ate and drank, literally Shane helped me go to the bathroom in my dress. I can’t say enough good things about Christina and her team. They are family now! 10/10 recommend! -

An absolute must for any couple!
Christina was absolutely amazing to work with, and every bride needs her in their wedding journey! Immediately upon hiring, she truly took the time to get to know my husband and I, and our wedding vision. With a wealth of experience in the events industry, Christina was able to help our vision become more incredible than we ever could have hoped for. Not only did she serve as a liaison between our vendors, but helped us to navigate the stresses of planning such a large event with ease. Her positive, radiant personality, attention to detail, and prioritizing of us as bride & groom allowed us to enjoy every minute of our wedding day. She was truly a godsend in the months leading up to, and especially on our big day. Cannot rave enough about her and her expertise, the best decision we made in our wedding journey was bringing Christina in! ABOVE & BEYOND! -

We met Christina in October of 2020 when venue shopping. She was the coordinator at our 11th toured venue and eventually the one we chose. We fell in love with the venue but I won’t lie, we picked our venue based on Christina. From our initial meeting she drew us in with both her personality but also with the way she just got our wedding vision in one simple conversation. She even gave us her cell number to help answer any questions or concerns we were going to have. When we made our pros and cons list our biggest pro was being able to work with Christina. We were absolutely devastated when we received the letter that she was going out on her own and leaving the venue. She called us a few days later to let us know that she was available for day of coordination if we were interested. We jumped at the opportunity to work with her. She would routinely check in to make sure we were doing okay and ask if there was anything she could help with months before the wedding even happened. In that time she truly became a friend, our conversations weren’t even about menu choices or vendors but letting me vent about the frustrations of family, wedding planning, and just life in general. She always had advice and a solution. I’m sure other coordinators say they go the extra mile but Christina actually does. She even glued my press on nails the day of because I can’t handle real nails. Her assistant Shane was also an absolute peach who had such a calming personality but also someone you instantly want to be best friends with. I knew I was going to be a stressed out mess but the week and day of our wedding I was so beyond calm and relaxed and I had knowing my wedding was ultimately in extremely capable hands to thank for that. My husband and I look back at our day so fondly and to us it was an absolutely perfect day with zero issues. I’m sure something went wrong somewhere but with Christina we never noticed it, heard about it, or became aware of it. We are so grateful for Christina for making our day flawless. Thank you for being the absolute best at what you do and for just being the best kind of person as well. -

truly the bride whisperer
this may be the hardest review i have to write because i simply don’t know ever to begin. When i got engaged I didn’t realized how badly I needed a planner until I really got
Started. I talked to a few companies but no one seemed to really care the way Christina did. It wasn’t transactional she wanted to go above and beyond to make sure my wedding was exactly how I wanted it. She was always responsive, had incredible ideas, was professional but always funny and kept me at ease through the whole process.
The day of my wedding there was the only blizzard we had this winter so Christina faced many challenges getting guests in and settled, rounding up bridal parties in a blizzard on the beach to get the perfect shot, down to having security shut down the whole Hard Rock hotel lobby just for my first look!!! But beyond all that, three hours before my Wedding began, my ballroom had multiple leaks from the storm and Christina and her team were able to come up with a game plan, switch ballrooms, keep their cool so I had no idea what was going on and could enjoy myself and finished flipping rooms, with time to spare. It was truly incredible.
I could not have possibly pulled off this wedding without her and the bride whisperer will forever hold a special place in our heart! We love you,
Coco! -

Amazing Experience from Start to Finish!
I can't even begin to describe how thankful I am that we hired Christina as our wedding planner last October! We initially met her through our wedding venue (The Grove, NJ) where she helped us book our date and answered all of my questions when we were deciding which location to choose. I was then able to work with her more closely as my wedding planner where she helped with all aspects of our wedding. She was absolutely AMAZING about making sure all of our details were taken care of and that our wedding day went off without any problems. She made sure that as the bride and groom we didn't have to worry about any aspects of the wedding not going as initially planned and made sure we enjoyed every second of the day. I can't rave enough about Christina making sure we were on time and every detail that I envisioned came to life! Whether it was a text, phone call, e-mail, or in-person meeting, she made sure that I knew she was always available to help with absolutely anything that came up! The peace of mind that she provided me, especially the during the last month leading up to the wedding, was such a comfort and blessing! Christina also provided so many wonderful suggestions and advice throughout the whole process which really helped pull together my vision. She attended all of our vendor meetings right before the wedding to ensure that everyone was on the same page. As soon as I started to interact with her I knew she was extremely knowledgable about planning all events- especially weddings. She was always willing to not only provide her preferred list of vendors, but also talk through the aspects of the wedding that I was doing myself. She was extremely detail oriented which helped with suggestions of how to tie in every aspect of your wedding together. I am beyond thankful that I met Christina and was able to work with her! I can't recommend Christina enough for any and all events! -

I met Christina when she was a sales person at our wedding venue. We clicked immediately and I knew that I had the perfect person to walk me, my fiancé, and my family through the planning process. She was professional and incredibly attentive. Being a COVID bride brought many challenges; one of which was the postponement and reschedule of our wedding. During our postponement, Christina left our venue. We knew we absolutely could not have our perfect day without her, so, we hired her to be our day of coordinator. It was the best decision we made.
Christina attended final details appointments both in person, over the phone, and via Zoom. She came to my parents’ house and spent hours with us going over every single detail of our day; from timelines, signature drinks, menu items, and even the smallest detail like our request that flipflops not be put on the floor until after our first dance and parent dances had concluded. She assisted us with hiring a last-minute cigar roll and he was definitely a hit. She answered our texts at all hours of the day; calmed us down, laughed with us, cried with us and planned with us. She ensured us that our wedding day would be everything we dreamed of and envisioned and it was.
On the day of our wedding, Christina was there bright and early. She spent some time with me and my bridal party while we were getting ready and then went off to ensure everything was as we discussed. One of our florists was over two hours late; she was in communication with the company the entire time and when they arrived, she made sure everything was done the way we had discussed during the detail meeting she had attended months earlier. Christina has such a calm, positive energy which helped keep me calm – I definitely needed it. Christina helped me change into my reception dress, made sure that my now husband and I were fed and had drinks at all times, and made sure that our guests were having an incredible evening. She was everywhere and anywhere that I needed her to be and then some. At the end of wedding, she collected all of our décor items, our bathroom baskets, photo booth items, made sure our cake was packed, and we had everything we had come with – she even helped to pack our cars – incredible.
I was the bride who “didn’t need a wedding planner” and let me tell you, it is the single best thing we did. Not only did it make it easier for me and my husband; my parents were able to enjoy the day knowing that everything was absolutely perfect and if something wasn’t right, Christina would have it taken care of immediately. We are so grateful to her for the support she provided leading up to the wedding, during the wedding and after the wedding (post-wedding blues are real!) and we are blessed that we can call her our friend.
There are not enough good things to say about Christina and the services she provided - she is worth her weight in gold. She is poised, courteous, and professional. If you are looking for someone who knows the industry inside and out, has contacts in all the right places, and is a genuinely great person, look no further. -

Steven G. Sent on 02/14/2022Absolutely the Best - Bride Whisperer is Amazing!!!
Where does one begin to expound the incredible virtue, value and service Christina Hope delivers... First and foremost, Christina is extraordinarily special as your trusted partner, her actions are always in your best interest and she deeply cares about every aspect of your wedding. Her attention to detail, follow up and execution are world class, she has a solution, price point and creative options to accommodate wedding visions and budgets. Christina is committed, she becomes part of your family and is always there for you, this is something rare in industry. She makes this happen because she was born to do this, is highly accomplished based on her many years of experience, an incredible network of wedding partners and her wedding planning subject matter expertise. I was blessed in 2021 to host two incredible weddings (105 days apart) and if it wasn't for Christina, it never would have materialized in such a magnificent and memorable fashion. Thanks for all you do and continue to do for your clients! -

Friendly, efficient, organized, perfectionist. Overall fun and extremely easy to work with!
When my fiancé and I decided to have our 400 person wedding and set our date only 6 months out, I didn't realize what I was getting myself into. A friend put me in touch with Christina before I realized I even needed a planner, and now I can't imagine how it would have been possible to do it without her. Our venue was a "from scatch" venue if you will. It was a bare bones structure that had to be transformed fully. From the minute Christina came on she took the reigns, took care of all the contracting for all our vendors (and there were QUITE a few since everything had to be brought in separately), and got going on design. She understood my vision perfectly and worked to ensure all the design aspects followed it. She kept me cool when I would lose my head, calmed me down when I would get overwhelmed in moments, and made sure to keep me on track. The day of, I woke up with ZERO stress or worry because I knew that my wedding was in the best hands. Between her making sure the venue and all vendors were perfect, and her assistant Shane being at our beckon call, it was so easy to sit back, relax, and enjoy my most important day. I can't begin to explain how many compliments I got after my wedding.
Most importantly, she became a friend through all of this. A companion that I would call/text any time of day with any concern, and that was evident from the day I first met her on the phone! -

Christina was amazing to work with! She was knowledgeable, organized, and immediately put all our anxieties at ease. She has a true passion for what she does which made us even more excited for our wedding day. Every step of the way, she worked with us, and guided us to make sure that our wedding day was what we wanted. She listened to our requests and did everything in her power to make it possible. On the day of, she was positive, my biggest cheerleader, and had true attention to detail! Knowing that I was in good hands truly helped me to enjoy the day and relax. Cannot recommend her enough! -
