The Best Of The Best!

Christy has been doing corporate events for my company for 10 years. She NEVER disappoints! I am in awe of her talent and ability to take a vision and make it a reality. Her attention to details is over the top. I attended a wedding this past weekend of a coworker and I do believe that it is the most beautiful wedding I have ever attended. Again, Christy did not disappoint! If you are in need of a wedding/event planner, Christy Loftin Schanz is your gal!

Wedding Angel

If I could give more than five stars, I would! Our wedding day was an absolute dream, all thanks to the incredible expertise and attention to detail of our wedding planner. From the moment we began working with her, we knew we were in good hands. She thought of every little detail, from the big picture down to the smallest touches, ensuring that our day was not only flawless but also uniquely reflective of us as a couple.

Her organization and professionalism were truly unmatched. She seamlessly coordinated every aspect of the day, from vendor management to timeline execution, allowing us to relax and truly be present in the moment. Her creativity and vision brought our ideas to life in ways we never could have imagined, and her calm and reassuring presence throughout the planning process was invaluable.

What truly sets her apart, however, is her genuine care and dedication to her clients. She took the time to understand our vision, preferences, and priorities, and went above and beyond to exceed our expectations at every turn. She anticipated our needs before we even knew we had them, ensuring that every moment was filled with joy and meaning.

Our wedding day was more beautiful and magical than we ever could have hoped for, and we have our incredible wedding planner to thank for that. She truly is a master of her craft, and we feel so grateful to have had her by our side as we celebrated the beginning of our new chapter together. If you're looking for a wedding planner who will make your dreams a reality and then some, look no further. She is simply the best in the business. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for giving us the perfect day we will cherish forever.
