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

    Best coordinator ever!

    Camille was absolutely AMAZING, and I cannot recommend her enough! From the moment we started working together, she made me feel like I was her only client. She was so attentive and always quick to answer any questions I had. She stepped in to coordinate with all of our vendors at the perfect time, managed everything so seamlessly, and thought of even the smallest details that I never would have thought of myself. She truly had an answer for everything! On our wedding day, Camille (and her assistant) made it possible for us to be fully present and enjoy every moment. I knew I could trust her completely, and she handled everything behind the scenes. I never had to think of what was coming next because she was always one step ahead. She made the day so amazing and so fun!

    Must-hire for your day!

    Camille is THE GOAT!!! We were able to enjoy and be fully present on our wedding day because she cued us when things needed to happen and kept us so on top of the timeline! As a type A bride and groom, knowing you can trust someone else like Camille is a must. She had great recommendations for cost savings things (cake, BYOB help), and went truly above and beyond with all the advice as well. Our day was perfect and Camille was a big part of making this happen. Would not hesitate recommending her to anyone!

    Amazing!

    Working with Camille and her assistant at Cherry on Top Creative Planning was truly a game-changer for our wedding day. They were proactive and efficient from start to finish, always thinking several steps ahead so I didn't have to worry about a single thing. What impressed me most was their attention to detail—they came prepared for everything and handled every vendor interaction seamlessly. Because of their thoughtfulness and care, I was able to actually enjoy my wedding instead of stressing about logistics. Honestly, I wouldn't have been able to pull off our special day without them. I've already recommended Camille's services to other brides and would do it again in a heartbeat.

    Hire Camille!!!

    We cannot say enough wonderful things about Camille! She went above and beyond throughout the entire planning process and especially on our wedding day. She was incredibly kind, organized, responsive, and genuinely cared about making our day everything we hoped it would be. On the wedding day, she handled every detail behind the scenes and made sure everything ran smoothly, allowing us to relax and truly enjoy the day. She was always one step ahead and made us feel completely taken care of. We are so grateful to have had her by our side and would recommend her to anyone planning a wedding! She is truly wonderful at what she does!
