We booked Teyanna in 2022 for our August 2024 wedding and did not regret it one bit. It was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Teyanna was beyond accommodating and informative throughout the entire process. Her precise, creative, and professional "client-first" mentality shone through. From countless Zoom calls to meeting up in person to select flowers, it was more than we could have asked for and were expecting. Her professionalism and creativity showed through when we had to improvise our outdoor ceremony to an indoor one thanks to a horrific tropical storm. She called us on the morning of our wedding to ensure we were doing okay and went over every detail with both my husband and me to make sure she and her team didn't miss anything. We cannot wait to work with Teyanna again in the future.

I had the best experience with The Venlist. I was fortunate to work with two great planners, first Kyra, and then Brittany. Kyra really understood what I was going for and was excellent at helping me plan, so I was bummed when she left. However, Brittany is absolutely amazing. She’s the absolute best at what she does. She goes above and beyond for you and she will definitely deal with any vendor issues you may have. Brittany is the main reason why my wedding vision was properly executed and brought to life. The Notion platform was perfect in keeping track of all things wedding, and I loved the style of it. Brittany is such a great person and easy to connect with.

Brittany is literally an Angel sent from heaven. She not only made my vision come to life, she made it even more beautiful than I could’ve imagined.

Niamh is an absolute joy to work with. She made every part of the planning process so much easier. Planning a wedding from 2,000 miles away isn't easy but any question I had she had a quick answer for or made sure she asked someone if she didn't have an answer for me. I never worried about communication because she was on the ball the whole time. She made sure there was no stress at all during my wedding day and I was able to be present and enjoy it the entire time. I even made a comment like "shouldn't I be more stressed about something?" but there was nothing to be stressed about with Niamh taking care of everything. She took every vision I had for the day and brought it to life. On top of her impeccable abilities at wedding planning she is also the kindest, sweetest person. Every meeting we had felt like talking to a friend. She made me feel comfortable and secure and I couldn't have asked for a better person to work with! Niamh was one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding.

Professional Planner and Decorator Dina personally plans, designs, and coordinates your wedding according to your vision.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Dina to be our wedding planner and it was the single best decision we made for our wedding. We called a few different vendors and Dina immediately stood out because she was the only one who was willing to actually give us a true consultation to ensure we were on the same page with what we wanted. She also didn't require us to pay her any money up front. In fact, she didn't request any money from us until maybe a month or two in? And even then, it was a minimal deposit. Point is, her vibe is that of someone who understands the stress of wedding planning for the bride and groom so she makes you feel like she wants to earn your trust and do everything right before she asks for your business. Leading up to the wedding, friends and family would ask us if we were stressed or ask us how the wedding planning was going. Our answer would always be, "you know what... we don't have anything to do lol." And that was the truth. Dina made the entire process come together so seamlessly for us, during a pandemic no less, when so many vendors were backed up. When we saw the venue in it's final form for the first time, our jaws dropped. Even to this day we love recalling comments from guests on how beautiful the venue was. During the actual wedding, she stayed the WHOLE night for us and even brought an assistant. Leading up to the wedding we were not expecting that! She helped to orchestrate the whole night between guest seating and working with restaurant staff. Simply put, Dina's communication was on point. Her work ethic blew us away. The way she found and discussed vendors with us made us completely trust her with the process of pulling our vision together. Her fees were criminal to the point we had to tip her almost 500 more just so we didn't feel like we were robbing her of her time and effort. We've already jumped at the opportunity to recommend her to friends/family that are embarking on their wedding planning journeys. I don't write many reviews, but had to for Dina. She will always have a special place in our memories and lives because she played such a huge role on our special day.

My passion for events started while planning my own wedding 12 years ago. Freshly engaged and full of excitement, I was captivated by every little detail. Soon after I had family and friends asking me for help with their events, and that is when I fell in love with planning & event design. I began working for an event planning company in 2018 and built my expert knowledge and vendor relationships through years of experience with the ups and downs of the wedding industry. In 2023, I decided it was time to start my own company and dove headfirst into perfecting my planning process and building Christa Nicole Events.

Working with Christa Nicole Events for our wedding was nothing short of extraordinary! From our very first conversation, Christa’s quick responses, clear communication, and vast knowledge put us at ease. As an exceptionally experienced wedding planner, she effortlessly guided us through every step of the process, from vendor sourcing to day of coordination! Before I hired Christa, I was having a hard time finding the right vendors. To be frank - I was having a hard time finding vendors that I liked and trusted - Christa immediately stepped in and worked her magic. Within a week, I was not only connected with the perfect vendors but also fully booked! Her warm, personable approach and extensive industry connections made what could have been a stressful process an absolute breeze. Thanks to Christa, our wedding planning experience was smooth, enjoyable, and stress-free. I cannot recommend Christa enough to any couple searching for a talented, reliable, and passionate wedding planner to turn their dream day into reality. Thank you, Christa—you’re simply the best!

Hiring Happens Like Magic was hands-down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. From the moment we booked, Krysta, made us feel calm, supported, and totally taken care of. She handled all the behind-the-scenes coordination — managing vendors, keeping our timeline on track, and making sure everything ran smoothly without ever feeling rushed or stressed. On top of that, the social media content creation was NEXT LEVEL.
