A Dream Wedding Made Possible with Carolyn
Working with Carolyn from Fete Events was an absolute delight! As a wedding photographer, I truly appreciate when a planner is organized, detail-oriented, and easy to collaborate with – and Carolyn excels in all these areas. She was always on top of every detail, ensuring everything ran smoothly and on time. Her eye for detail and dedication to her couples made the day seamless and stress-free. Additionally, her décor work is absolutely stunning – I’m still in awe of how beautifully the photos turned out. Carolyn’s talent truly shines in every aspect of her work. I can’t recommend her enough to anyone looking for a professional and creative wedding planner!
