    Carolyn was incredible! She took so much weight off our shoulders. She managed everything while we were able to enjoy our special day. The greatest decision I have ever made!! If you are looking for an event planner, please keep Carolyn in mind :D Thank you, Carolyn, for all your hard work and for making our day better than we could have ever imagined

    Carolyn absolutely crushed it at my wedding. We were in need of a day-of-coordinator and she was awesome. Stayed late, made sure everything went smoothly, and was very good at communicating throughout the whole planning process. Would recommend to anyone looking for a planner or coordinator!! We love you Carolyn!

    Hiring Carolyn from Fête Events was honestly the best decision I ever made for my wedding. We had an interfaith Muslim/Hindu Indian wedding and with that, can come with some complexities. She was able to handle day of coordination flawlessly (managing not one but TWO baraats and working with our siblings who weren't used to officiating for an interfaith ceremony) while also providing excellent design details with florals. Carolyn has such a kind, warm personality that can make anyone feel at ease. I also love the small touches like coming over to my hotel room with a bag of goodies to make me feel relaxed on my wedding morning (I was not expecting that at all but it was super nice to see her and her presence def put me at ease). After the wedding, both my sister-in-law and mom mentioned how great and professional Carolyn was at her job. (It's not just coming from me!) If I hadn't hired her, our wedding day would def not have flowed as smoothly and I am eternally grateful for her.

    Working with Carolyn was a complete dream. She was my referred to me by my sister. Working with her first at my sisters wedding while I was the maid of honor was my first experience with her. My sisters wedding would not have been as successful throughout the night without her help and guidance with the timeline. I then hired her for my wedding as I needed someone to help with organization, planning, and timeline help. Carolyn exceeded my expectations by not only giving me the best day of and prior planning advice but also helped with smaller things like making signs and email communications with my venue. She helped me with looking through BEO documents and overall was my piece of mind throughout the entire wedding process. She was worth her weight in gold and I would 100% recommend hiring her if you want to make sure your wedding day is perfect and stress free!
