Where do I even begin? Frances and her team at Charmed Events are truly wedding planning magicians!…read moreWith 14 years of experience as a Floral and Event Designer myself, I've had the privilege of working with some of the best planners in California. When it came to planning my own Carmel Valley wedding, there was no question in my mind - Frances was the one! Having collaborated with Frances over the years, I've always been struck by her professionalism, attention to detail, and genuinely warm personality. Her design aesthetic is just dreamy - romantic, modern, and effortlessly sophisticated. There's a certain magic in the weddings she designs, always infused with personal touches that make them feel special and unique to the couple. Throughout my wedding planning journey, I gained a newfound appreciation for Frances from a client's perspective. She not only listened attentively to our ideas but also transformed them into a breathtakingly cohesive design concept that perfectly reflected us as a couple. Every detail was just beautiful! Also, amidst some issues that arose with the venue, Frances proved to be our steadfast ally and advocate, navigating unforeseen challenges with grace and diplomacy, ensuring every detail was ironed out. As the wedding approached, Frances introduced us to her principal planner and right-hand woman, Emily. Together, these two are a powerhouse duo! While Emily handled logistics such as transportation, vendor coordination, and timeline, Frances focused on executing the design vision flawlessly. As a complete bonus to their already awesome services, Frances also personally designed all of our signage, menus, seating charts, and programs. Personally, I would have had her design my invitations had I known of her talents sooner! On the big day, Frances and Emily were our guardian angels, orchestrating every moment with precision and grace. Emily's attentive care during the morning-of made me feel like a princess. She brought me and my bridesmaids delicious bites, made sure my dress and veil were perfect during first look photos, and her calming presence helped to ease my nerves. Meanwhile, Frances was busy overseeing the vendors, and set up of the ceremony and reception, which were honestly executed to perfection. The reveal of each space took our breath away and exceeded all expectations. It was truly a fairytale come to life! One more thing I want to mention about these two was that they really listened to our request to make sure that the wedding didn't feel rushed, and that we even had some moments with just the two of us. The timeline was so thoughtfully crafted that on the big day, it really didn't feel like the "blur" that everyone talks about. We were able to be present with each other, and even visit with our guests during cocktail hour and reception. There was a sense of ease about the day that allowed me to really just take it all in, and I think that is very special. Thanks to Frances and Emily, our wedding day was stunningly beautiful, perfectly orchestrated, and absolutely unforgettable. If you're in search of a planner who embodies competence, professionalism, and impeccable style, look no further. With Charmed Events, you'll receive the five-star treatment you deserve and an exceptionally magical day tailored just for you!

Jason was a phenomenal DJ for our wedding and reception!…read more During planning, he asked us questions about our vision for our wedding day, musical and style tastes, and priorities. He gave us a sample timeline to work from and offered valuable guidance on the ceremony and rehearsal flow/sequence of events. We were married on the beach and he provided the music for the guest arrival, processional, ceremony, and recessional, plus a mic for the officiant. The sound quality was great. Once the party moved indoors, he got the vibe going immediately. We are so glad we put our trust in Jason - he's absolutely 1st class and we recommend him very highly!

Lindsay helped us to safely pull off our dream wedding during the COVID pandemic on 8/8/2020…read more We were able to have a 50 guest COVID wedding- outdoors with socially distanced tables, cocktail hour, dinner reception, lion dancers, food truck, Chinese tea ceremony, boba, cake & crepes, three outfit changes, same day edit, and sparkler exit! (Who would have thought we could right?) After our wedding, guests were telling us that our wedding was so amazing and that it almost felt like a "normal" wedding-- even with social distancing, masks and all! We met Lindsay when she was the social catering manager for the Crowne Plaza where we were going to have our original wedding reception pre-COVID. Lindsay is the type of person to rise to any occasion and she does it with a smile and positive attitude and is extremely detail-oriented and efficient. After we had to change our venue due to COVID, we reached out to Lindsay to hire her as our day of event coordinator for our wedding. Due to COVID, we weren't sure if we had to postpone our wedding, but once we figured out we could still have it, we had less than a MONTH to replan our entire wedding. Lindsay helped us so much and did a phenomenal job! She paid attention to every detail of our wedding and thought of things we didn't even think about. She helped us to create a great timeline, reach out and keep track of our vendors for our venue, and was available if we needed her for questions/consultation. She went above and beyond on our wedding day and this was an all day event. Our venue was set up perfectly, she created a beautiful sign-in, gift table, and sparkler table for us to display our sparklers for the end of the night. We gave her all the parts we wanted in our wedding and she seamlessly made everything happen. All of our transitions were perfect and she kept us on time with our schedule. We even had extra time to relax and enjoy our reception and food. Tip: At your wedding, you want to enjoy your day and let someone else (non-family member) to be in charge of the details and help facilitate what is going to happen It is the small details that matter and Lindsay paid attention to all of them and exceeded our expectations from start to finish-- she made our wedding look easy to pull-off, but there was so much involved. Lindsay is a truly genuine, loving person and she cares so much about her clients and was there to support us in any way we needed. Despite the pandemic, we trusted Lindsay with the biggest day of our lives and she was able to safely help make our dream wedding happen. I can honestly say our wedding would not have gone so well or have been able to happen without her. Lindsay is amazing in any coordinating role and I would trust her again to do any event in a heartbeat. Reach out to her and have her for your wedding coordinating needs-- you will not regret it :)
