    The coordinator you KNOW you need!

    Christian and I knew we wanted to make our wedding as personal as possible. For us, this meant we wanted to get married in our church and we wanted to have a say in the food, the drinks, the cake, the rentals, the stationery, the small little details. When we first decided on our location, we were ecstatic about how fun it would be to have no restrictions set by the venue about our vendors, but we quickly became overwhelmed with the unique (and very small) layout of our venue and how much we didn’t know about planning our own wedding from the ground up. We knew right then that investing in a coordinator would be the only way to achieve the outcome we wanted and have a good time doing it. We made the easy decision to have Carissa as our 10-month coordinator. She was there every step of the way - she simultaneously kept the planning process flowing with monthly check-ins, recommended vendors, assistance with communication, a lot of encouragement and so many more things along the way all while allowing us to put in the work and make our vision come to life. Sure, there were naturally moments that felt like the world was closing in on us, but then we’d get that monthly email from Carissa telling us to go enjoy a date night out because we were ahead of the game (only thanks to her guidance). Once we got to our one-month countdown, Carissa truly shined. The feeling of trusting someone to take over your where you left off was scary at first, but it was honestly the best and most exciting part of the planning! The weeks flew by and it was suddenly rehearsal! I remember going over details in my head and realizing there were directions I forgot to give or pictures of layouts I didn't include, but I knew that we worked to closely with Carissa that she would make it happen (and would probably do it better than my suggestions). The big day came and we were relaxed, excited to get married and celebrate with our loved ones! The time between our ceremony and our reception reveal felt like ages. We could not wait to see the magic Carissa and her team made happen. I remember seeing the room from a distance as we took our last photos and I felt so giddy - even the groom kept saying “it looks so damn good even from here.” Everything was exactly how we had envisioned it - I turned to Carissa with some tears and a big hug. I just wanted her to know that she made every single piece of our vision come to life. From her relationships with our vendors to her flawless execution, she allowed us to be so present during the evening as she and her team were putting out fires that we probably don’t even know about to this day. The number of guests who told us they had not been to a wedding with such a great flow and so many personal touches just made us so happy. We knew we put a lot of work on her plate, but Carissa embraced it and it made all the difference.

    Thank you, Carissa & your wonderful team, for making our day an absolute dream come true. We wouldn't ever dare try to re-live this day because there's just no way it could ever be as perfect as it ended up being.

    Positively Charming's reply:

    Aw thank you Krista! This was so so sweet and I'm so glad you guys and your guests felt at ease with the flow of the wedding day. That's such a huge compliment to me and my team and we love to hear it! And that reception reveal will truly go down in my memories as one of my faves with you...tears on both ends haha Love you guys and am so happy for you two and the life you are building together!

    Ready for anything!

    Working with Carissa of Positively Charming was the best decision we made (second to deciding to get married of course). We started the process a little on the later side and Carissa was able to jump in, help us catch up and stay on track. Besides the quick responses, help with our (my) indecisiveness, and excitement for our vision, Carissa was also able to help us with some MAJOR last minute obstacles. Rain was suddenly predicted for our outdoor wedding. Carissa supported us with a fabulous can do attitude, helped us draft a few contingencies and pivoted with us day of as the weather changed throughout the day. I could not have imagined making it through that storm without Carissa in our corner helping us move and shift things into place to give us a perfect, albeit damp, wedding day. And hey, a wet knot is harder to untie anyway.

    Positively Charming's reply:

    Haha I love that line "a wet knot is harder to untie"...so true! Loved working with you and Jamey for your big day and I'm glad everything worked out and you guys were happy with it all :)

    Absolutely Amazing!!!

    They are all so amazing! I first reached out to Positively Charming Weddings after I had booked my venue and realized I had no clue what to do afterward. After setting up the initial call, Carissa was very detailed in going over all of the packages to help me figure out what I wanted. We had the pleasure of working with Kailyn all throughout our wedding planning journey and she was amazing!! When we first started the process, I had no wedding theme or colors in mind and felt so lost on where to begin but Kailyn helped me put all of my likes and thoughts together and in the end it all fell together beautifully. She also followed up each month with a checklist of items for me to get done and it really helped keep everything on track. I don’t know how others do it but if I didn’t have Kailyn helping me plan, I definitely would’ve started losing my mind in trying to keep track of everything. She was so lovely to work with and always answered any questions I had! She also had everything handled the day of the wedding and I’m so very thankful that I was able to be as stress free as possible that day. All in all, I highly recommend them!!! It’s so very worth it in the end and they are all such a pleasure to work with!

    Positively Charming's reply:

    Aw I'm so glad you were happy with our services. Kailyn is truly the best and I'm so glad she was able to help you be a little more stress-free on your wedding day :) Congrats to you and Lawrence...wishing you two the very best!

    Absolutely worth every penny.

    It was absolutely worth every single penny to pay for the help. You don't realize how many options you have available to you in every aspect of planning every detail until you ave someone with you every step of the way helping you and explaining everything to you. This whole thing was not low budget, low quality handling. I felt very taken care of. I learned SO MUCH throughout this entire process and Carissa and her team of trusted vendors made me feel like I was in such good hands. She genuinely cares and the authenticity definitely comes through no matter what it was.. if i had a small or even silly question Carissa always had an explanation and always helped me understand anything i was iffy about. I absolutely trusted she had my best interest in mind. making decisions can be so overwhelming but Carissa always helped me find the answer. My wedding truly was so magical and I wasn't worried about a thing on the day of, I was surprised lol. I highly highly recommend this team if you want to have peace of mind knowing ur day will go seamlessly. trust. the. process. I had a beautiful, elegant, amazing wedding and that would not have happened if I didn't have Carissa!

    Positively Charming's reply:

    Aw thank you Cece!!! I absolutely loved working with you and Trey. So glad I was able to help with the stress in the planning process and that everything turned out so beautifully on the wedding day 🤍

    Above and Beyond!

    I cannot even say enough great things!!! From the moment we started working with them until after our wedding, I have been BEYOND grateful for everything they have done.

    My husband and I started meeting with them before we finalized our venue/date. We both really didn’t know anything about wedding planning and Youtube/blogs were really not cutting it for us. We just needed a little expert advice so, we set up our initial call with Positively Charming. We spoke with Carissa shortly after and she went through all of their packages and we discussed which one was best for us! She answered all of our questions about our options and was patient in letting us make our final decisions. Carissa even gave us a few Venue suggestions because we ended up deciding to secure our venue before hiring our planner. All of her packages are very customizable and vary based on how much time/how involved you want to be in the planning/designing process.

    We ended up going with the Simply Charming Package - we chose this package because it fit all of our needs and I had decided that I didn’t really want any help with the actual design of the wedding. I ended up crafting a lot of items so, the basic package was perfect! Unfortunately, we ended up booking an October 2022 date instead of our planned May 2023 date so Carissa ended up already being booked. Fortunately, Carissa set us up with Kailyn as our Planner and we are SO happy to have worked with her!!

    Kailyn helped us look at different vendor options, looked over all of our vendor contracts, helped ask questions we didn’t even think to ask (that were highly important), and helped keep us on a timeline with her monthly check ins. She sent us monthly to do lists and made it really easy to work on our wedding planning in manageable pieces. Once we got closer to the date, she helped work on our timeline and toured the venue with us! This part of planning was VITAL and we don’t know what we would’ve done with Kailyn! There were so many little details that we hadn’t even thought about. There were just so many things to consider and she really helped us make decisions down to the smallest detail! From the table/decor placements to the schedules of our various vendors, everything was planned ahead of time and communicated with us! She helped us a ton with our last minute questions and helped us make important decisions that made our wedding turn out amazingly! Kailyn made sure our entire wedding party knew when/where they needed to be on the day of the wedding and they also passed out timelines to the whole crew so they were all informed!

    Kailyn was INCREDIBLE on the day of the wedding! I am in awe of how smoothly things went and how little stress/anxiety I felt because of how well planned things were. I honestly think the only hiccup that I noticed was my Fuji Instax Camera not working (lol). But even then, Kailyn helped find spare batteries and helped find another Instax Camera from a bridesmaid when the battery change didn’t work! Everything else went off without a hitch - Kailyn handled everything with a calm and bright demeanor which was greatly appreciated by someone who gets stressed easily! She made sure the bridal party was in the correct spots for the ceremony/reception, she made sure all of my homemade decorations were set up properly on the tables, and she was amazing at putting everything together! Kailyn definitely understood the vibe I was going for and executed it perfectly!

    My husband and I cannot recommend Kailyn and Positively Charming enough. No matter what type of bride you are, just do yourself the best favor and hire them as your planner!!!! I wish I could have another wedding, just to hire them again (sorry Andrew :P)!

    Positively Charming's reply:

    Haha I love this. Lorrie, thank you so much for allowing us to be part of your wedding day! It's so great to hear how helpful we were throughout the process. Wishing you and Andrew the best of luck and we hope you stay in touch 🤍

    Absolute Perfection

    The thought of planning a wedding to me was overwhelming and frankly I had no idea where to start. All I knew was that my venue required a coordinator so I started the search. The best decision we made was to have Positively Charming Weddings coordinate our wedding. They made the whole process simple, straightforward and honestly easy. The regular checkins and emails about what we needed to do next etc. was so helpful and kept me on track so the when it came time for the details meeting a month before the wedding, we felt so prepared and ready for the big day with little to no stress. Carissa and Miranda are amazing at what they do and know every detail about what a truly special wedding requires. I cannot feign to imagine what the day would've looked like without their expertise. I can't thank Positively Charming Weddings enough for their above and beyond effort at every step of way, they really made the day absolutely perfect and completely flawless. I highly, highly recommend them!!! They are such lovely people who are really easy to work with and make planning a wedding actually an enjoyable experience, which I had not thought was possible.Read Less

    You Need a Planner!

    I could not have imagined what my entire wedding planning experience would have been without the help of Carissa and her team. My husband and I knew from the beginning that we needed help with the wedding planning process. Prior to our wedding, my husband spent about 7 months working out of town, so a LOT of the planning landed on me, and having her help was what we needed.

    From day one, Carissa made us feel comfortable and we felt confident having her by our side with decision making and designs. She always added her two cents, if asked, but still kept in mind what we needed and wanted. Carissa even helped us navigate a VERY STRESSFUL, unexpected, venue change 6 weeks before our wedding.

    The day of our wedding, Carissa was amazing! She handled things with grace and never let me know if there were issues - my family and friends felt like they could relax and enjoy the day, and not worry about any minuscule issues.

    We hired Carissa for the full planning and designing package and if you’re on the fence about hiring a planner, I’d say go for it - and choose Carissa while you’re at it. I was mostly a stress-free bride (shocking, I know!) and that was 100% because I knew I had a professional like her to help guide us through it all.

    Positively Charming's reply:

    Kristin, thank you so much for your sweet review!! So glad I was able to make your wedding planning relatively stress free 🙌🏼 ☺️ I loved being able to walk alongside you from the very beginning and I'm going to miss our times together! Wishing you and Gino such a happy life 🤍

    The best decision we made

    Carissa is personable, professional and easy to work with. After explaining the different services available we chose the Beautifully Charming Package. This gave us the opportunity to plan the wedding with Carissa guiding and helping us in the decisions we made. She has great vendor connections and we were very pleased with the ones we hired. On the wedding day we did not worry- we knew we were in good hands and she did not disappoint. Carissa set up all our personal decorations- welcome sign, guestbook table, seating chart, dessert table, photo op area, place cards and more- and did it beautifully. At the end of the evening our personal belongings were packed and ready to be loaded into the car. Not for one second do we regret hiring Carissa and would do so again in a heartbeat! She really is that good!

    Positively Charming's reply:

    Thank you so much, Oksana! It was such a pleasure working with you and your family, and I'm so glad that you guys were happy with the final outcome. Hope to work with you guys again in the future!

    Carissa is the absolute best!

    Hiring Carissa for our wedding day was one of the best decisions we made throughout the entire planning process. Carissa is extremely professional, organized, and detail-oriented. We were so lucky to have her on our side, and she was a huge part of why our day went so smoothly!

    We hired her to help us with our venue search and then for her month-of coordination package, and I truly appreciated that she was available to answer questions over email or text at any time during the wedding planning process. Wr also loved that every month she sent us a to-do list of what we should be working on to make sure we were on track with planning our wedding. Carissa has an incredible eye for detail - there were so many little things that went into our big day that we would not have even thought about if it weren't for her.

    Carissa kept both of us calm, on track, and as realistically on budget as possible throughout the planning process. We can't thank Carissa enough for all that she did to help make our dream wedding come true. We would highly recommend Carissa to anyone planning their wedding. She is the absolute best!

    Positively Charming's reply:

    Aw thanks Bryn!!! So glad I was able to help relieve the stress for your big day. It was such a fun and beautiful wedding to be a part of 🤍

    100/10 Recommend Hiring!!!

    Wow, where do I begin? I came across this company completely by happenstance and it ended up being the greatest decision for my wedding to hire them! I got to work with both Carissa and Kailyn and loved them both so much!!

    Long story short, there was drama with my venue and Carissa was already hired as a coordinator for another bride at my venue and reached out to me when she could tell I (rightfully) was in a panic. From there she paired me with Kailyn who really was my angel saint throughout the entire process. Before hiring her, I thought I would be fine with only hiring a month of coordinator, since I had already done a lot of the initial planning, but looking back, I don’t think my day would have ran as smoothly at all. Kailyn knew so much more than I even thought I knew. She jumped right in and worked with me to finish where I left off and was a constant source of reassurance, knowledge, and support. Every month I could count on Kailyn to check in with me with a detailed list of to-dos and in between then, she was always easy to reach and always responded quickly. Because of the drama with my venue/the owner, Kailyn and Carissa both were masters of patience and communication and would work tirelessly to get us answers from the owner/vendors. Having a coordinator to help liaise with vendors took an incredible amount of stress off of my to-do list and I am incredibly grateful that Kailyn was there to carry me to the finish line. The day of, both girls were there and ran everything behind the scenes and I barely had a worry that day! If you can find it in your budget to hire either a coordinator or a planner, I strongly urge you to consider it and more than anything, consider Positively Charming!

    Positively Charming's reply:

    Wow Nina, thank you so much for your kind words! So glad we found each other and that you felt like our services were so helpful!

    Greatest planner I could've asked for!

    We hired Carissa as our month-of coordinator and to help with the design process. She was so helpful with bringing our vision to life and truly appreciate her being in constant communication with us the months leading up to our wedding - the monthly emails (with reminders of what we should be achieving that month) kept us on track and by the time the month of our wedding came around, Carissa had everything under control and our wedding day went so smoothly! We are so appreciative for Carissa's help and recommend her 100% for anyone looking for a wedding coordinator!

    Positively Charming's reply:

    Thank you so much for the review Clarinda 🤍 It was so special for me to be part of your wedding day and I'm glad I was able to relieve some stress!

    Coordinator turned friend!

    Carissa elevated our vision and helped us throw the most EPIC party!

    We had never planned on getting a coordinator, but are so grateful that we did.

    She was brought on early in our planning process as our “month-of” coordinator, but she got to work right away. She sent us monthly check-ins and to-dos to keep us on track, which was beyond what we expected in a “month-of” coordinator. Carissa was considerate, professional, and accommodating.

    Weddings are a HUGE undertaking and we threw at her the added pressure of relocating in the midst of planning, mixing my divorced family dynamics, my family's cultural expectations, and the blending of my husband’s out-of-town family. She handled all these obstacles with grace and professionalism and made us feel like it was a piece of cake.

    Carissa was never just a resource for wedding related details, but instantly became a friend. Our day turned out better than we had imagined and we were so grateful to have her on our team. We’d get married again every year, just to have her plan it all over again!

    Thank you Carissa & the Positively Charming Team!

    Positively Charming's reply:

    Lynna, thank you so much for your sweet words! I've absolutely loved getting to know you guys and I'm going to miss chatting with you on a regular basis! Now we will just have to keep in touch via social media :) So glad I was able to help make your wedding dreams come true!

    Wedding Day Hero 🎉

    I hired Carissa as a month-of coordinator and she went above and beyond with her advice during the planning process. She handled everything in the weeks leading up to my wedding and because of her I actually had time to relax and enjoy the time before my wedding. The wedding day itself was absolutely perfect! Nothing went wrong and I know that this amazing wedding experience could not have happened without Carissa. She also had rental items that went perfectly with my design and turned out beautiful. I love her taste in design and if you need a full planner to design, she would make your wedding incredible. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone!

    Positively Charming's reply:

    Aw thank you Kaitlyn!! So glad I was able to help enough so you could relax a little leading up to the big day!

    Friendly, professional, organized

    I was really on the fence about hiring a wedding coordinator, but my cousin who got also got married recently told me about her wedding coordinator, Carissa, and how incredibly helpful she was on her wedding day. So, at the last minute I decided to reach out to see if they were available, and thank goodness they were and willing to help! I am so glad I got them on board to help me. Kailyn was my coordinator and was so professional, extremely organized, and took care of so many little details I would have never even thought about. I honestly think my wedding day would have been a disaster if I Kailyn wasn’t around. She was so helpful with figuring out the details prior to my wedding day, and contacting my vendors to make sure everything was set that once my wedding day came, not only did she take care of setting up (and do an incredible job), she kept everything running so smoothly, I didn’t have to worry about a thing! I was just able to be in the moment and enjoy my wedding. And to top it all off, she is probably one of the nicest people I’ve met! I would 100% recommend Positively Charming Weddings to anyone who’s looking to have a stress-free (or at least as stress-free as possible) wedding planning experience!

    You really don't need to look anywhere else -- Carissa is the best!

    Simply put — Carissa and Positively Charming Weddings are amazing. Truly amazing.

    I cannot even begin to imagine planning a wedding without a coordinator like her. I had not been to many weddings and had no idea about certain traditions, how things flow, when things happen, etc., but Carissa was always available for any questions I had, and was always receptive to what we wanted to do, even if it was not completely traditional. She saved me so much time and stress scouring the Internet, trying to figure out how to plan a wedding, researching vendors, etc. she sent out monthly checklists of what we should be doing to keep us on track, and I didn’t feel like I was trying to get everything done last minute, which was amazing.

    Honestly, my husband and I and our family were able to enjoy the entire day because of Carissa. We didn’t have to keep track of time or remember what was coming next. Carissa had an itinerary planned and communicated with her helpers to ensure everything ran smoothly. I’d heard about other weddings where family members get sucked into to doing all the planning and coordinating day-of and that was exactly what didn’t happen at our wedding. Everyone was relaxed and joyful; exactly what we wanted.

    Also, I struggled with my bustle for the first dance and half of the reception, and I was so stressed about tripping on it. Carissa kindly took time to re-adjust it and safety-pin it and everything so that I was more comfortable. To be honest, this saved my night!!

    Anyway, as you can tell, Carissa is great. I cannot recommend her enough for wedding planning in so cal. Please contact her!!

    Fabulous Wedding Coordinator!

    I got married in February 2022 and Carissa was my wedding coordinator gifted to me by my MOH. I didn't think I needed a coordinator but my venue made you get one. Well, turns out, she was such an asset to my wedding. Carissa's monthly emails/checklists kept me on point. She always responded to my emails quickly and had a viable solution for every road bump that I hit during the process.

    My rehearsal ran smoothly because of her and everybody in my wedding party was impressed by her ability to make everything flow so smoothly.

    When it got to the day of, I knew that she would bring my vision to life and she did! Everything that I had imagined and sent her emails about she made it happen. Carissa also made the day flow so smoothly and I am grateful she was apart of my wedding!

    Positively Charming's reply:

    I'm so glad your venue required you to have a coordinator because I never would have had the pleasure of working with you if they hadn't! Thank you so much for the sweet review, Erin!!

    You've found your coordinator!

    Carissa is honestly the best coordinator we have ever had the opportunity to work with. My wife and I are wedding photographers and we're already counting down the days until we get to work with the Positively Charming team again. Carissa went beyond just relaying information and instead worked with us to help make sure the day went as smoothly as possible. Some days we don't have the opportunity to meet with coordinators until shortly before the ceremony but Carissa and Kailyn made a point to introduce themselves when we first arrived at the venue. Even before meeting, Carissa was a rockstar, responding to every email super quick, going above and beyond for timeline details, and was an all around cheerleader for everything wedding related. If my wife and I had to get married again, we would pick a wedding day solely based on Carissa's availability.

    Positively Charming's reply:

    Wow, thank you for the sweet review, Austin! You and Sam were so great to work with. Thank you for making my job so easy by being wonderful to work with! Can't wait to work with you two again!

    Mr. & Mrs. Cikos

    knew the moment we hired Carissa as our wedding planner that it was the best decision we ever made while planning our wedding! I could not imagine doing all the prep along the way and not having her there on the wedding day to handle everything imaginable. The whole day of the wedding Carissa made every detail perfect, and if a problem arose, I had no idea because she knew exactly how to fix it. She moved everything along so effortlessly. My favorite part about working with Carissa is her amazing, calming personality! She is so helpful with any advice you need. She handles everything along the way so professionally and treats you like you have been a lifelong friend. I could not have had our beautiful wedding day without her! It was the perfect day all thanks to her.

    Positively Charming's reply:

    Merissa...stop 😭 You're so sweet. Thank you for the kind words! I loved every minute of working with you and Alex, even through all the hiccups we encountered haha I hope you two enjoy the honeymoon!!

    Wonderful Experience

    Positively Charming was just that! We had a great experience and couldn't have planned our wedding without Carissa and her team. When my sisters were married, 14 & 15 years ago, our mother helped them plan. I wanted my family members to feel like esteemed guests at our wedding rather than stress out over details. Carissa thought of EVERY little detail and the best part, you don't have to have a huge budget to have a wedding planner.

    Positively Charming's reply:

    Gina, it was such a pleasure getting to work with you and Bobby. You two are such loving and genuine people and I loved every minute of it! Thank you for the kind words!

    One million percent recommend Carissa!

    We hired Carissa as a Month-Of planner, but she was SO MUCH more than that. She seriously goes above and beyond for you. She is so organized and personable which made working with her so wonderful. Every month she sent a checklist to help keep me on track for the planning I was doing on my own which was awesome. She was even an amazing sounding board for non-planning-related issues too ha!

    On our wedding day, everything went so so smoothly. If anything went remotely wrong - I still am blissfully unaware because she found a way to fix it. My husband and I both agree, everyone should hire Carissa and her team! One million percent recommend!

    Positively Charming's reply:

    Omg Maddy, you're so sweet! Thank you for the thoughtful review! I loved working with you and Garrett and am so happy for this new and exciting journey you two are on as husband and wife ❤

    The Fairy Godmother you NEED at your wedding

    5 STARS IS JUST NOT ENOUGHT. Carissa is incredible. Having to postpone my wedding and navigating all the changes that came with that, Carissa was such a constant, positive force in my life. She was a shoulder to lean on, my biggest cheerleader, my fairy godmother. I wholeheartedly believe my wedding was the best day ever because of Carissa and her team. I didn't know a single issue at my wedding, I was blissfully unaware because they took care of everything. I was so impressed with Carissa's organization, positive attitude and commitment to my wedding. I know she had many other weddings going on but I ALWAYS felt important to her and that meant the world to a sensitive bride. Thank you just doesn't seem enough- but Thank you so much for everything you did.

    Wonderful Wedding Planner + Coordinator!

    I don’t know what my husband & I would have done without Carissa’s help! She was there every step of the way and made wedding planning so much easier for us. Every month she was on it with making sure we were completing tasks that needed to be done! She also took care of all the communication between vendors, which we greatly appreciated because it took some stress off of our shoulders. And on the day of the wedding we felt so relaxed, because we knew Carissa (& her assistant Katie) would make sure the day went perfectly, which it did! Since Carissa & Katie were handling anything that needed to be taken care of. But what we loved most about working with Carissa is her attention to detail in everything she does! We’re both very detail oriented people, so we were happy that Carissa is too. We both highly recommend anyone planning a wedding to work with Carissa, because she will go above & beyond to make sure you have your dream wedding!

    Positively Charming's reply:

    Jade, thank you so much for your sweet words! So glad you felt I was able to make such an impact on your big day. It was such a fun wedding to be a part of!

    Wedding Planner to the rescue!

    Carissa was hired to be our wedding planner after we had to change venues a month and a half before our wedding. We were already stressed about having to basically start over with planning but Carissa Definately put our minds at ease. Usually a wedding planner has quite a bit of time to help plan a wedding. Carissa did the impossible by making sure everything was just perfect. Crossed all the t’s and dotted all the i’s. I would recommend Carissa to anyone who wants the most perfect and easy going experience of planning their wedding!

    Positively Charming's reply:

    Thank you so much for your kind words, Jennifer! You and your family are so sweet and were such a joy to work with. Hope to keep in touch!

    Positively Charming

    We would absolutely recommend using Carissa and her assistant to help plan your wedding or special occasion. The road to our daughter and son in laws wedding was paved with many obstacles from last minute venue change, fires and a wild rainstorm. Through it all Carissa was calm, reassuring and very sweet. Thanks to Carissa’s guidance the wedding was beautiful filled with memories for a lifetime😊

    Positively Charming's reply:

    I absolutely loved working with you all! Thank you for your sweet words! The wedding was absolutely beautiful!
