We were married on the beach in Longboat Key, FL on 6/24/11 and Christina was our officiant and assisted us with planning. Words can not begin to express how grateful we are to her for all of her help. Our family and friends are still raving over how amazing the ceremony was. She helped us to incorporate my 2 children in the ceremony and we completely customized every part of the ceremony to reflect who we are as a couple/family and break away from all of the traditional "stuff" we have heard a million times before. My family STILL gets teary-eyed trying to tell other about it!! Being from NJ, it was intimidating to try to plan a wedding from far away without knowing which vendors were reputable and who to trust, but Christina helped us with all of that and relieved our fears/concerns. She was very responsive, calm and professional. I felt relieved the second she arrived on our wedding day and "took over". It helped me to relax and enjoy everything. I HIGHLY recommend Christina to anyone. Christina, thank you for helping us have a wedding day that FAR exceeded our dreams. We are forever grateful!! 
With much love,

Was absolutely pleased with Christina! She was very affordable and professional. She was quick with all my requests and went above and beyond her job description. You can tell she truly loves her job sand I would recommend her to anyone!

 Christina did a wonderful job through out the wedding process. We used her "day-of" services and she coordinated everything perfectly. She worked the vendors, created a time line, and made sure all the details were in place. We had no issues and everything went smoothly. I would definitely recommend her to any bride - she will definitely take the stress off of you on your special day.

Christina did a great job at quickly picking up and executing my day of coordinating. The wedding went off on time and without any problems. I would highly recommend her services.

Our wedding was on April 17, 2010 at the Tradewinds Resort and we hired Christina early on to help us with all of the planning. That was the smartest move we made. She was wonderful right from the beginning and was there for us every step of the way all the way to the end of the reception. She went with us to help pick out flowers and decide on cakes but she never tried to sway us, she just sat with us, gave suggestions and helped us remember to ask the right questions of the vendors. We received so many compliments on our ceremony and reception and I told everyone that it was all because of Christina. We loved her!!

From the outset, Christina was an invaluable source of help, advice and information and we were over the moon with her services. She was a constant source of guidance, providing us with all the information we have needed to make the right decisions for our big day. She is very efficient, always getting back to us promptly and has consistently gone the extra mile to ensure our wedding day was as we always dreamed. We simply could not have done it without her!

Planning a wedding overseas is never an easy task. It can be hard to find reputable suppliers when you cannot have the face-to-face communication with people. Christina helped us overcome hurdles on the way by recommending the best possible suppliers. She pointed us in the right direction for florists, accommodation, beauty salons, restaurants and photographers, and has regularly spoken to these suppliers, negotiating on our behalf. This certainly helped cut down on the astronomical cost of international calls!


She booked many appointments for us, and spent time confirming all the arrangements. She was always accommodating to our requests and I can honestly say nothing has been too much trouble for her. In particular, she devoted a lot of time to ensuring all our ceremony wording was tailored perfectly to us (we spent a while agonizing over those!). It also rained on our original day so Christina came back to marry us the following day instead when the weather had improved. This would not have been possible with a UK wedding.


We are so happy to have chosen Christina as our wedding planner. Our wedding could not have been in more capable hands. She helped ensure our big day was as stress-free and as happy as we have always wanted. Thank you so much Christina!
