    Christine is wonderful!

    I've worked with Christine on several weddings. The thing that stands out the most is how much her couples adore her. They are always blown away by the experience she provides and her ability to make their vision for their wedding day come to life. I cannot recommend her enough.

    Absolutely 100 recommended!

    We worked with Christine for our designation wedding. I came across Christine through a Facebook group for destination wedding couples and through references and recommendations from other couples, we decided to hire Christine as our wedding planner. It was one of the best decisions we made! We are both full time working couple who have a high demanding jobs so we really needed someone to help us plan and help carry out the wedding planning for us. Christine was so open and kind and highly experienced and knowledgeable. When it was trying to help us narrow down where we would want our destination wedding, Christine would come up with these different venues, detailing information on budget, location, website, links, and information that would help us narrow down our selection. Throughout the process, Christine was always telling us to reach out to her whenever and she would follow up with us and even insight on the hospitality and venue side, she knew negotiations with contracts and things to ask that we wouldn't even be aware or know about. We absolutely recommend Christine to any couple who are looking to hire a full time wedding planner and that need that handholding support. We loved working with Christine! Thank you Christine for all your support and kindness working with us even through our wedding day.

    Perfect Wedding Team Leader

    Christine was the planner for my January 2026 wedding at Clementine and I would have been lost without her! Once we had the venue locked the next thing I needed was the planner and Christine was amazing from start to finish. As an out of state bride she was flexible with when I was able to come into town and responsive when I had questions. She had the best recommendations for other vendors but also respected when I wanted to bring in my own members. She kept me on track without being pushy. My wedding was absolutely amazing because of the team I had putting it together and Christine was the calm, cool, and collected team leader. She was able to give me all the information I needed and still flex as needed. She really respected that my husband and I were focused on giving back to our guests and helped us to execute that vision. We had many people we greatly respect tell us it was a perfect wedding. Christine is everything you could want in a wedding planner and I highly recommend her!

No. We only book one wedding per day. This allows us to be fully present for our couples and ensures your wedding is never competing for our time or attention. We intentionally keep our calendar limited so we can deliver the personalized service and seamless experience that CM Event Design is known for.
Absolutely! Christine is your lead planner and will be your primary point of contact from the day you book through your wedding day. You'll work directly with her throughout the planning process, ensuring a personalized experience and consistent communication every step of the way. Christine is supported by Regan, our Senior Wedding Coordinator, who assists behind the scenes and throughout the planning process as needed. On your wedding day, depending on the size and logistics of your celebration, we are often joined by our experienced team of Day-of Coordinators to ensure every detail is executed seamlessly.
The amount of time we spend together depends on the level of service you choose and the complexity of your wedding. Most couples meet with us throughout the planning process for milestone meetings, venue walkthroughs, tastings, and vendor appointments. Between meetings, we're available by email, phone, and text, so you always have guidance when you need it. We believe in being accessible without overwhelming your calendar.
Absolutely! We're happy to help plan the events surrounding your wedding, including engagement parties, bridal and wedding showers, rehearsal dinners, welcome parties, post-wedding brunches, and other celebrations. Whether you need full planning or coordination for one of these events, we'd be honored to help make every part of your wedding journey memorable.
We offer customized planning services designed around your unique celebration. Our investment begins at $4,500 for Wedding Management, with partial planning, full-service planning, and destination wedding planning available for couples seeking additional support.
