We had the absolute privilege of working with Carrie as our wedding planner. From start to finish, she managed every detail of our wedding with precision and grace, ensuring everything came together seamlessly. Thanks to her, we were able to fully relax and enjoy the day, knowing everything was in perfect hands. Over the course of 10 months, Carrie worked closely with us to bring our vision to life—and calling it perfect feels like an understatement. She and her team operate on another level. Carrie’s warm personality and calming presence made the entire planning process not only smooth but genuinely enjoyable. We’re beyond grateful for everything she did to make our day so special.

My team and I have worked with Carrie and her team for years now at several dozen weddings and events, over the years. She and her team, consistently put together a fun, luxurious, and wonderful event every single. I’ve seen Carrie in almost every crazy and emotional situation imaginable, and she handles it effortlessly and with a smile on her face. You would never know the house was on fire. Haha! As a Wedding vendor, that has covered weddings all over the world. I 100%, look forward to EVERY wedding/event that the Happy Hour Hostess is planning/designing. See you Saturday!

I had the pleasure of working with Carrie and the Happy Hour Hostess team at a recent wedding in Virginia. As a wedding photographer, I have worked with numerous planners and I can say without a doubt, that Carrie and her team are the best of the best. Not only do they execute vision with attention to the smallest details, but they also bring positive energy, heart, and a can-do team spirit. Carrie always has a smile on her face and her team are a joy to be around. My experience working with the Happy Hour Hostess team was personal, warm, and attentive. I knew from the first moment of interaction that I was working with the experts and I could trust them to provide a flawless experience. 10/10!

After one post-poned wedding, vendors dropping out, and being out of state- I made the decision to hire HHH from a day of coordinator to a partial planner to our 180 person backyard wedding (yes, I know, what was I thinking trying to take it on alone). It was the BEST decision- Krystinia was completely hands on from beginning to end. We had weekly hours long zoom calls going over the details. She was in constant contact with my Aunt (venue) and all the other vendors so I didn't have to worry about a thing. She got the wedding party from the house, to the church, back to happy hour, Bride and groom on a boat and chick-fil-a delivered all on time. She ALSO found me a last minute Caterer 3 months before the wedding. Our wedding wouldn't have happened without Carrie and Krystinia swooping in to save the day. 100/10 recommend!

We booked Carrie as a Day of Planner. What we didn't know is that we were going to get hands down the best service we could have ever asked for out of this wedding business. Not only did Carrie run the wedding but she did our flowers as well. My wife designed most of this wedding with Carrie's expert advice and then she brought it to life. Carrie's attitude and work ethic were more than we ever dreamed. I was 100% skeptical about a day of planner but I will tell you now I don't know how we would have done it without her.
