Stephanie D. Sent on 04/13/2024Worth her weight in GOLD!
I truly don't know how to put into words the deep appreciation and gratefulness we feel for Carolyn and her team for all of their guidance, help, and care for our December wedding! I wasn't even going to hire a wedding coordinator at first because I figured it would be an extra expense we just couldn't afford, but I happened to stumble across Carolyn Celeste Weddings on Wedding Wire and the reviews were so fantastic, I figured it might be worth a shot. Let me tell you: Carolyn is more than worth her weight in gold!!! Even before we signed a contract, she was so sweet and helpful with a few suggestions after I shared some details about our wedding with her. At that point, we knew this was the gal for us and it was quite possibly the best decision we made in the planning process! Carolyn is fun, encouraging, creative, organized, and the best possible advocate for her clients' wedding dreams. She kept us on track without being pushy, never ghosted us for even a moment, and made suggestions to help us stay on budget and still have the wedding we wanted. SO much goes into planning a wedding behind the scenes, but the real magic happens the month and day of! She and her lovely team were so sweet and kind to us, our wedding party, and our families and friends the entire night, from start to finish. We didn't have to worry about what was happening next or where we needed to be, because Carolyn kept us informed and on track with her fantastic timeline and simultaneously made sure we were having the best night of our lives! All of our guests are still complimenting the wedding and reception and how smoothly everything went, to which we credit Carolyn immensely. She consistently went above and beyond for us in so many ways, and because of her guidance and care, we literally had the PERFECT wedding day we had dreamt of for years. To prospective clients wondering if you even need a coordinator, much less wondering if Carolyn Celeste Weddings is right for you -- DO IT!!!! To Carolyn, Allie, Carter, Tiffany, and Shannon -- THANK YOU a million times and more for your hard work and kindness! We will truly never forget it! -

Highly recommended!
Carolyn and her team are incredible! You know you’ve got a great planner when other vendors come up to you & say what a great person Carolyn is to work with! Carolyn helped make our day amazing! Everything went so smoothly & she made sure everything was done just the way we imagined! Carolyn has a great energy that makes you feel cool, calm, collected, and at ease! Would highly recommend -

Hire Carolyn Celeste Weddings!!!! Early on in my wedding planning I wasn't sure if I needed a wedding coordinator. I thought I could just do it myself (spoiler alert: I would have been very wrong). However shortly after meeting Carolyn I knew she was someone we needed there on our day. She knows EVERYTHING you could ever need to know and is always one step ahead of the game. She is extremely organized (which I so appreciated) and her main priority is bringing YOUR vision to life. We had a unique dinosaur themed wedding and she embraced it from the beginning and was genuinely excited by everything we had planned. On our wedding day I wasn't stressed because while I was getting ready I knew she was downstairs making magic happen with her team (who are just as amazing). Most importantly, you can tell that you aren't just a client to her. She takes time to get to know you and develop a friendship that will continue past your wedding day. I could go on forever but the bottom line is hire Carolyn, you won't be disappointed!! -

Excellent, amazing, over the top helpful!
Carolyn is literally the best wedding planner I could have asked for. Her crew (Crystal and Shannon) kept my wife and I calm, and prepared. I never thought I needed a planner as bad as I did. Thank you all for everything. -

Picture a Translator, a Counselor, a Teacher, an Engineer, a Designer, an Organization Guru, a Cheerleader, a Prophet and your favorite cousin all wrapped up in a fun bundle of positive energy, humor and delight and you have Mrs. Carolyn Cox of Carolyn Celeste Weddings. Her years of expertise and her creative problem solving abilities ensure her clients receive double the value of what they hire her to accomplish for them.
When my daughter got engaged, our first stop was a consult with Carolyn. She was wise about where we should start the process and how to proceed. From that moment on she brought the perfect mix of calm and excitement with each interaction we had. She was quite literally the best tour guide we could have had for this 13 month life-changing heart-warming family blending event.
On the day of the wedding she truly outdid herself by bringing her own stash of bonus items (easels, a cake plate, and a “mountain toiletry kit” to name a few). She and her team maneuvered specific obstacles so that every guest and especially the wedding party could fully enjoy this special day. She provided (and updated) timelines, communicated with all vendors (and recognized them on social media), handled surprise weather and venue challenges, directed setting up, completed cleaning up, helped with dressing up and even provided follow up! Carolyn made the whole process fun and memorable and I could not be more grateful for her unique blend of service, expertise and personality. Working with her made me want to do the whole thing all over again from the beginning. Well...almost. 🥰 -

Carolyn was amazing. She is extremely organized and so much fun to work with? She seemed to know and have a great working relationship with all the vendors. She brings a very calming presence to what could very easily be a very stressful time. She went above and beyond to make my daughter's wedding day perfect! We cannot thank her enough! -

If you are beginning to plan your wedding, you NEED Carolyn. She thinks of everything. She will remind you of things that never would have crossed your mind. Carolyn is not only knowledgeable in this profession, but she is incredibly resourceful in the area. She knows EVERYONE in the Hampton Roads wedding industry and they know and love her. She is so organized and she never skips a beat. I know she had other brides while working on my wedding but she always made me feel like I was the most important person on her list and like I was a friend of hers. And as a bride having to reschedule and make cuts to our guest list because of Covid, I was so grateful for that. If I had to get married again I would hire Carolyn in an instant. The second best decision I made (other than getting married in the first place of course) was having her as our month of/day of coordinator! -

A beautiful and stress free wedding, thanks to Carolyn!
Carolyn was so on the ball and FUN to work with too! We were always laughing and staying positive no matter what. Wedding planning shouldn’t be a chore or stressful, and it never once felt like that when working with Carolyn! -

Carolyn went above and beyond for our wedding. It was not any easy one to deal with because of so many things going on and so many factors. Carolyn was helping work through things far beyond my expectations, she was talking to me way before the month of due to the unique circumstances. Carolyn covered every angle, and because of her preparing us, we were able to have our dream wedding. We were so prepared and she helped us to take measures so when the time came we could still have our special day. If it wasn’t for Carolyn our day wouldn’t happen. I highly recommend you hire her especially during these trying times. On the Wedding day, Carolyn was on top of everything and she was a true life saver. Her team made everything look so beautiful, they did a phenomenal job. Everything looked more amazing then we could have ever imagined and the day went so smoothly. Carolyn is the best out there and all the vendors love working with her, it’s a win for you and for them too! To top off our story, before dinner Carolyn came and grabbed us and said there was a surprise for us outside, and it was a giant rainbow over the ocean! Because Carolyn was so fast on her feet, we were able to get our most beloved picture by the photographer of us and the rainbow! We love you Carolyn! -

Carolyn was absolutely amazing from the second we met her and super attentive throughout the planning process and on the day of the wedding. I have been in many many weddings over the years and knew for sure I would be stressed out on my wedding day but.. I just wasn’t because Carolyn helped make everything run smoothly. I cannot stress enough how pleased we were to work with her! Love her and would recommend her to anyone looking for a planner! -

I knew from the first meeting my fiancé was convinced Carolyn would be our wedding planner. I was quickly sold as well. Easy to work with, thorough and personable. But when it came to me wanting to surprise my fiancé, THE WEEK OF the wedding -she didn’t bat an eye. No surprise was going to throw her off her game. And that’s where she really shined helping to bring to life an amazing ice sculpture feature and making it happen while I was busy working and preparing for the wedding. And she really took it above and beyond surprising even me with additional small touches when it came time to surprise my fiancé. So grateful to work with Carolyn. Kept the evening moving. Attentive to details and even worked with my best man to make sure behind the scenes things happened without me worrying about it. -

After having to cancel our wedding 3 times Carolyn stepped up to help us create our perfect day with as little stress as possible. She handled everything for us leading up to the day, rehearsal, and day of to keep everything running smoothly and on time! Wedding planning is so stressful and Carolyn really bridges the gap between you and vendors and keeps the timeline going to everything is completed on time! I HIGHLY recommend her for your special day!!
