About Cherry on Top Creative Planning

Cherry on Top Creative Planning

Owner & Lead Planner

Hi, I’m Camille Carter — owner and lead planner of Cherry on Top! My journey began in catering and hospitality and those experiences taught me the beauty of creativity, precision, organization, hospitality and care — qualities that now define my approach to wedding planning every single day and help me to assist couple's in saying, "I Do!" Helping couples create meaningful, fun-filled celebrations is not just what I do — it’s what I love most. To inspire, create and dream with couples about a day that will live with them forever is where I thrive and what brings me joy. You and your wedding matter to me, so let's plan it together!

My over a decade of experience in weddings and events - cooking, catering, coordinating and planning - have left me well versed in every arena of the wedding day itself. I have a depth of knowledge that I can't wait to share with you as we plan your wedding day.

In three words: Efficient, Fun, Positive

    I cannot begin to explain how amazing Camille, with Cherry on Top Creative Planning is. She has been our planner since day one, but when I received word that our original venue went bankrupt, she immediately started helping me look for a new venue and kept me calm. And in planning the wedding itself, I thought I had thought of everything, but boy was I wrong. Her attention to detail is bar none. Camille went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was perfect, from coordinating all the vendors to making sure every last detail was taken care of. I don't know what we would have done without her expertise and calming presence throughout the entire process. I highly recommend Cherry on Top Creative Planning to any couple planning their dream wedding.

    We cannot recommend Camille highly enough. We worked with her on an expedited timeline, and from day one she kept everything organized, calm, and moving forward seamlessly. Her communication was truly exceptional-- clear, thoughtful, and proactive at every step. Camille consistently went above and beyond, from sourcing creative vendors (including a giant cheese wheel in place of a traditional cake!) to navigating tricky and sensitive conversations with our wedding venue with total professionalism and grace. She was also incredible at helping us understand where our investment truly mattered. When our venue presented a quote that felt extremely high for linens, Camille validated our concerns and quickly found an alternative vendor that was far more cost-effective-- without sacrificing quality or aesthetic. I truly cannot overstate how much we valued her advice throughout the planning process; her guidance made us feel confident and supported in every decision we made. Beyond her exceptional skill as a planner, we genuinely loved working with Camille as a person. She thought of every detail and brought thoughtful, creative ideas that helped shape a New Year’s Eve wedding that felt both unique and deeply personal. On the day of the event, she handled everything with such care, calm, and grace that we were able to be fully present and enjoy every moment. Camille made our wedding not only beautifully executed, but truly special-- and we are endlessly grateful for her.

    Choosing Camille as our wedding coordinator was hands down the best decision we made throughout the entire planning process!! She is kind, hard working, and you can tell she genuinely cares so much about the couples she works with and bringing their dream wedding to life. Camille went above and beyond in the months leading up to our wedding to make sure we were on track and had thought of every single detail. She also made us feel at ease and confident in the choices we were making. After every call with her, we felt better and more excited for the wedding weekend. We knew she’s be dependable on the day, and she proved us right!!! So organized, detail oriented, and just such a positive and bright presence all day. She really is such a ray of sunshine and so professional. Our whole bridal party was blown away by how truly great she was, including many brides who wished they’d had Camille in their corner on their own day!! When things went a bit awry with transportation, she jumped into action and literally saved the day. Brides, do yourself a favor and choose Camille. You will NOT regret it for a single second!!!!

  • Amazing day of coordinator!

    Cherry on Top Creative Planning was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, their team was incredibly responsive, fun and upbeat, always hyping us up and making us feel confident in their abilities. Camille was extremely organized and handled any small mishaps on the day with grace, bringing a level of peace and order to our busy Indian wedding celebration. Her attention to detail and proactive approach ensured our big day went off without a hitch. We are so grateful to the Cherry on Top team for their incredible service and for helping to make our wedding day truly special.
