From Costco runs to getting floral arrangements together and beyond. They put together a flawless, beautiful, dream wedding for me and my husband. I didn't have to worry about a thing because I knew that the entire wedding was in good hands with these two. Not only will these girls work so very hard for you, they will also give great advise, come up with awesome ideas, problem solve, and use their many creative talents to pull off the ideal look and feel of your wedding. I know weddings can be stressful and can put the bride in a panic but if you'd rather sit back with a glass of champagne and enjoy the day then Ryder and Rhoades is the way to go.

I gave them my vision for the ceremony space and reception area and they made it jump off a Pinterest page and come to life.

They're professional, personable, and punctual-- hardworking and creative-- I mean it truly doesn't get any better than these two.

You can tell she truly loves her job and wants to make everyone's wedding day spectacular and perfect. Christina made it possible for my husband and I to have the wedding of our dreams! We're so grateful for her and all of her help. Not only did she go above and beyond in the most important things- like picking out a good florist, giving recommendations on caterers, tents, etc., but she also made sure to send us back to the hotel on our wedding night with extra entrées and cake because she knew we wouldn't have the time to eat while entertaining our guests. She would truly thought of everything, down to the smallest details!

One of the most exciting times of life is having a daughter to celebrate when the man she loves ask…read moreher to marry him. Recently our daughter, Allie, was joyfully engaged and the time had arrived for wedding planning. We agreed that the guidance of a Wedding Planner was definite, yet had no idea where to start. Not having sources that had used an independent wedding planner, we perused internet reviews and one name floated to the top over and over. Her reviews were stellar and her pictures exciting. Together we agreed to reached out the CHRISTINA LOGAN EVENTS and set up a meeting with Christina Logan. Aware that planning a wedding was complex - complicated by Allie's work schedule and with me living out of state - it was critical to find the right person to tackle our lives while pulling together the dream wedding. As Christina introduced herself, it was clear that we were in the presence of someone who was not only skilled at her craft but genuinely passionate about making Allie's special day perfect. Our anxiety slipped away, knowing we met our perfect wedding planner, we joyfully hired Christina Logan Events to plan Allie and Alex's wedding. Christina quickly presented a detail outline of our budget and put together a board of Allie's thoughts - dress ideas, colors and flowers - a highlight of her dream. It was spot on! Allie's text to Christina was "So excited! You're doing amazing pinpointing my vague idea!"  We were realizing the fortune of finding Christina, who was professional, dedicated, giving attention to detail that was beyond our comprehension. Before long, a delightful sense of humor emerged from Christina, making the entire planning process enjoyable and stress-free.   Christina worked effortlessly through every phase, no matter how big or small, ensuring everything was executed flawlessly. She respectfully listened to Allie's ideas, saw her vision, and worked tirelessly to bring it beautifully to life. (And thank God for that sense of humor which was fully appreciated when attention to numbers attending and table assignments were required). With everything perfectly in place prior to the wedding, on ceremony day, Christina was a stealth spirit of perfection. She set finial touches on tables, perfected the bridal cake, straightened the groomsmen, pinned my dress lining, oversaw food service and the entertainment, orchestrated the wedding party, ensured all facilities were well-maintained, and more. The evening flowed flawlessly as she guided Allie and Alex with calming ease and complete support .... Always with her lovely smile. At night's end, not missing a step, she had the getaway car packed and awaiting the new Mr. & Mrs., sparklers passed out, arms open sending Allie and Alex off with hugs. It was beautifully moving for me, Mother of the Bride. Christina was a highly treasured part of Allie's wedding journey. She also became a cherished friend, whom I miss speaking with weekly. We are forever grateful for this Angel - truly a gift from God. We highly recommend to all of you seeking someone to guide you through to your dream wedding - she is here - Christina Logan of Christina Logan Events.

I feel so grateful for the hard work that Damon Goude, co-owner of Regalo Design, put in to make my wedding the most beautiful and memorable day of my life. Damon is super friendly and easy to talk to, but he was simultaneously able to manage our huge families in the rehearsal and day of so that things could proceed according to plan. We actually stayed on schedule! Unheard of. He got us through the rehearsal quickly, efficiently, but without missing any details so that everyone knew where they were supposed to be, when, and what to do. It took all of the pressure off of us to get everyone in line, which if you have ever had a wedding, you know is a giant relief. Damon met with me a couple weeks before the wedding, went through my two huge totes of items I wanted displayed at the wedding, verified that the decorations they were providing were what I wanted, finalized the flowers (which were the most beautiful flower arrangements/bouquets/etc. that I have ever seen at a wedding), and generally made me feel calm that everything would be taken care of. He came early the day of the wedding to decorate. I can't explain how beautiful everything was! Once I get the photos back from our photographer, I will upload some highlights, because it was magical what he did. He decorated the arch under which we were married, it looked straight out of a fancy magazine cover. Damon moved everything along according to plan for the ceremony and reception, and stayed to make sure that everything was cleaned up and our gifts and other belongings were securely stored. I felt so calm due to his hard work, he really took care of everything so that we could relax and enjoy our special day. Regalo Design is perfect for couples like us who have a budget that needs to be followed, their prices are extremely reasonable (the best I found in Nashville, and I did my research). I give them my highest recommendation, I can't believe how lucky we got that we found them. I'll forever be grateful for all that they did!
