    The BEST wedding planner!

    We were so incredibly fortunate to have the Lorraine Tomas team work with us before and on our wedding day. Ricardo was an absolute rock star. We were so lucky to find him. From day one he was helpful with making our dream wedding come true. He was always there for us and was quickly responsive with whatever we asked. We cannot imagine having our wedding without the help from Ricardo.

    Lorraine Tomas Weddings's reply:

    Thank you Jake and Andrew for your sweet and kind words. I was happy to be there for you both and and now I have 2 friends for life!

    Bride and Groom’s Experience from the Criswell Family!

    I cannot speak highly enough of Haley! I mean WOW! I feel like I had my best friend with me all day. She is phenomenal. She handled everything and everyone perfectly it was so easy. The girls loved her, the guys loved her, I love her!! It was the best day of my life. I was so sad it came to an end. I told everyone let’s wake up and do it all again ha! I really hope I can work with them all again one day… I’m trying to figure out more things to plan so I can! Ricardo and Haley both helped me immensely leading up to my big day. I loved how literally anytime of day, day or night, they responded me. I truly felt like I was their only client and most important one during this whole process!

    Lorraine Tomas Weddings's reply:

    Thank you Taylor and Chance for your kind words and for giving us the opportunity to coordinate your special wedding day. We love working with sweet and appreciative couples like yourselves and would do it all over again with you both!

    Extraordinary Destination Wedding!

    The Lorraine Tomás team of Ricardo, Rebecca and Haley were amazing! We live in Dallas and decided to get married in Las Vegas. Ricardo made the first trip to Vegas with us and prepared an itinerary of meetings and venue visits in order to finalize the ceremony and reception locations. We made a second visit for tastings, floral selections, entertainment and ceremony details. Once wedding week arrived, all the major decisions were finalized and we were able to concentrate on having a great time with our guests. Our weekend consisted of a Bar Crawl, Welcome Party, Las Vegas Show, Wedding Ceremony, Reception and final Brunch. Last-minute details were handled by the trio and we had a beautiful ceremony! We can’t imagine this process without their assistance and expertise. You are definitely in great hands if you chose the Lorraine Tomás team to plan your wedding experience!

    Lorraine Tomas Weddings's reply:

    Thank you Rosalyn and Stephanie for giving us the opportunity to plan and coordinate a beautiful wedding weekend for you and your guests in Las Vegas. We certainly enjoyed every minute of your wedding weekend and so happy you both were able to celebrate LOVE with all of your friends and family.

    Amazing service!

    Had an amazing experience with Ricardo! He made sure everything was in line for the big day and the day was so smooth. I did not have to worry about where to go or what was next because Ricardo kept everything on schedule and running. I loved working with him and would recommend him to anyone.

    Great to Work With

    We started working with Ricardo over a year before our wedding. He made sure that we had vendors that were supportive and highly professional wich was especially important to us as a leasbian couple. Everything went well on our special day and we were glad to have him.

    Lorraine Tomas Weddings's reply:

    Thank you Katelyn and Kelsey for your sweet words of kindness. I had fun working with you both and so happy and honored to have been a part of your special day!

    It was a breath taking day.

    Ricardo,
    I want to personally thank you for all you did at our daughter's wedding. You made it look so breath taking and perfect for Heaven and Sam along with the rest of us.

    In my overwhelming moment you the stress out of the day for me so that I could enjoy the celebrations. I truly hope you had time to enjoy yourself and the celebrations of the day.

    I would highly recommend you to anyone and would definitely use you and your services again.

    With much appreciation,

    David

    Lorraine Tomas Weddings's reply:

    Thank you David! I had such a great time coordinating Heaven and Sam's wedding and especially knowing that I and your family shared a deep passion for all things Disney which made the day extra special with adding some of those little magic touches and hearing those special songs throughout the wedding day.

    What a fantastic experience!

    Ricardo and his team were incredible during the planning portion and the actual wedding! We had some personal challenges during the planning process and he never missed a beat! The phrase, "don't worry, I've got this." became his mantra. lol! If you are hesitating about hiring this marvelous team at all.... don't! You will not regret it! It made planning the wedding fun instead of stressful. His experience adds dimension to the process.

    Lorraine Tomas Weddings's reply:

    Thank you so much Kim for your kind words and for trusting in us to coordinate such a beautiful wedding for you all. It was an amazing day for Kensey and JP and it showed in their faces throughout the day.

    Ricardo is wonderful to work with and most talented!

    Ricardo gave us good referrals for vendors and stepped in when needed. I appreciated working with him in countless ways: always responsive , had great ideas, great resources and referrals, was a helpful "counselor/advisor" when needed, listens with such a helpful ear, always calm and we just love and apppreciate Ricardo for making our daughter's dream come true! Not just a great wedding architect but also great person and friend!

    Thank you Irene for your kind words for allowing me to create a memorable and dream come true for your daughter's wedding.

    Ricardo is an ultimate professional

    My daughter was finishing Medical School out of state and planning a wedding at the same time. Thank Goodness for Ricardo! In addition to great monthly planning updates, our monthly Zoom calls kept us on task so there were no omissions. The vendors he suggested were all 5 star. What sets Ricardo apart is he is an actual Wedding Architect. He set up the room from an aesthetic point of view which made the wedding different from any other we have attended. Everyone should hire this Wedding Architect!

    Lorraine Tomas Weddings's reply:

    Thank you Ronna for your kind words and I am honored to have been the Wedding Architect for your daughter's special day and making sure everything went smoothly!

    Ricardo was wonderful!

    Ricardo kept our big day running smoothly and took so much stress off of us! He even steamed the bridal party dresses when we couldn’t figure out the new steamer we bought for the wedding! Ricardo was great at communicating with us and our other vendors! 10/10 recommend!

    Wonderful Day

    Ricardo was there at every meeting (vendors, tastings, decor, rehearsal). He made us feel comfortable and gave us peace of mind. He helped coordinate setup for reception, kept up with vendors, helped with my wife's dress and hotel accommodations for our families, etc. He is willing to listen and gives another perspective and great advice! Highly recommend Ricardo, will not let you down!!!

    Outstanding job

    Ricardo

    It's Sunday evening, and Patricia and I are in our Fort Worth apartment recovering from Friday night's marriage event at the Dallas Arboretum with a cocktail in hand and a glow on our faces. The guests have departed. We are sitting here smiling and laughing about our experiences at the marriage celebration. Our friends and family are raving about the event. It's clear to us that everyone will carry fond memories with them forever.

    You explained to us at our introductory interview that your role was as a Wedding Architect, not just a professional that coordinated the various vendors. Tricia and I both understand and appreciate the importance of that skill set now.

    The evert was a huge success because of your organizational skills. Everyone will carry with them forever fond memories of the event.

    Thank you so much for your commitment to us and to creating successful celebration of our marriage.

    With love and great appreciation.

    Don and Patricia

    Lorraine Tomas Weddings's reply:

    Thank you Don and Patricia for taking time to share your experience with hiring me as your Wedding Architect. It was such a wonderful evening filled with love from all your family and friends as they celebrated your marriage. Your wedding has a special place in my heart and I shall never forget your kindness and appreciation for what I do.

    Wouldn't Have Been the Same

    We had the pleasure of work with Ricardo on our wedding earlier this year. At first we didn't plan to have any kind of wedding planner but as the day drew nearer, we decided we could use some help. After being introduced to Ricardo, it was clear he would be a major help. Ricardo was indispensable in helping us nail down some final details and making our day go off without a hitch.

    Thank you Anthony and Rachel for your kind message and it was my pleasure helping your wedding day go smoothly and being there for you and your guests.

    Absolutely fabulous!!

    Ricardo Tomas (and the whole Lorraine Tomas team) is absolutely amazing! They are so professional and pleasant to work with. They are experienced, have amazing attention to detail, and are prompt and get things done in such a professional matter. I had all the faith in the world that with Ricardo and his team there, the big day would be nothing short of perfect. (And yes it was more than perfect!!) The whole wedding day operations can be quite overwhelming - but with Ricardo as my planner I felt totally at ease! He knew exactly what my vision was and he made it come to life.

    Lorraine Tomas Weddings's reply:

    Thank you Kendall for your sweet words and testimonial. We had a great time getting to know you and your mother while planning your wedding and it was truly a perfect evening from beginning to end on your wedding day.

    Amazing experience with Ricardo as our Wedding Architect for my daughter's wedding!

    Ricardo and his team were beyond amazing ! As a first time Mother of the Bride we wanted our one and only daughter to have the wedding of her dreams and Ricardo made that possible! He was patient with me, has an incredible eye for detail, is so knowledgeable and orchestrated every step of the wedding planning with professionalism and precision. I was actually able to soak up every moment of the actual wedding day with no worries because I knew Ricardo had it all handled. A true blessing !

    Lorraine Tomas Weddings's reply:

    Thank you Gina! I thoroughly enjoyed planning Kendall and Patrick's wedding with you. You were such a sweet and patient person and thank you for letting me apply my expertise and magic to your daughter's wedding which allowed you to really enjoy the day.

    Amazing Wedding Coordinator who was so much help.

    Ricardo was an amazing wedding coordinator. He was so much help to me ( Mother of the Bride) before, during and after the wedding. He has a calm sweet spirit that spills over into everyone else involved. Our pastor said he has the perfect personality to do this job and he wished he could work with him at every wedding. I will used Ricardo when my other daughter gets married. We greatly appreciate all he did for us. Thank you Ricardo for being part of our daughters wedding.

    Lorraine Tomas Weddings's reply:

    Thank you Jina for your sweet and kind words! This was such a special wedding to me and felt like a personal member of my family was getting married.

    Perfect Day, Perfect Team

    Ricardo Tomas, aka The Wedding Architect, was born to plan weddings. His calming demeanor and loving spirit are the perfect catalysts for ensuring that the day is memorable for all the right reasons. Ricardo and his team Rebecca and Haley ensured that there were no hiccups - at least none that we knew of! He calmed my mother-of-the-bride worries in the days leading up to the wedding. He and his team seamlessly coordinated the moving parts of set up and tear down. Prior to the wedding day, Ricardo was a presence throughout the process, assisting my daughter with her dress selection and my son-in-law with his tuxedo, through multiple iterations of the menu, supporting our unconventional decorating plan, and helping keep costs within the budget. The photographer, videographer, and venue manager told me that he is one of their favorite planners and they love working with him which speaks volumes for his professionalism and reputation in the industry.
    I can't imagine any other team being there for my daughter's once-in-a-lifetime Perfect Day.

    Lorraine Tomas Weddings's reply:

    Thank you so much Roseann for your kind words and sweet testimonial. It was a beautiful wedding day and everything did go off without a hitch!! It was a special day for me especially knowing you and Caroline for quite some time and she looked radiant the entire evening.

    Ricardo was our sanity

    Our experience with Ricardo was as perfect as anyone can ask for. He was there every step of the way guiding us with the most difficult and stressful decisions of planning a wedding. He did so much more than we had expected him to and kept us calm and collected the entire way. And the most important moment of all, the wedding day, there was not a thing he had to worry about. He was just on point the entire time. We would recommend Ricardo 200%.
