Helped bring our cross-cultural wedding to life!
We are grateful to have found Caroline at Protea Event Planners. We were in WAY over our heads....planning a cross-cultural wedding in only 4 months time frame (gulp...) at a new wedding venue in Frederick, MD... we knew we needed help! Caroline was great from the first phone call; her unique combination of superior planning skills, along with positive, creative energy and practical problem solving approach were the exact profile we needed. She kept us on track, managed our vendors for a seamless VIP-like experience on wedding day, and helped us pull off the wedding vision of our dreams. Thanks to Caroline and Protea Event Planners for expertly guiding us through one of the most special days of our lives!
Fantastic
Protea was great. Their communication was efficient and timely, putting us at ease throughout the entire process. The team proved to be incredibly detail-oriented, handling all the logistics like coordinating the food, drinks, event space, and DJ so we could focus on enjoying our special night. They were a true stress reliever, sweating all the small stuff so we didn't have to. We highly recommend Caroline and her team.

I had the pleasure of working with Caroline at Protea Event Planners for my wedding, and I can't recommend them enough! Here’s a glimpse into how they made the planning process seamless and enjoyable: she expertly guided me through budget allocation and tracking, ensuring I stayed within my limits while still achieving my dream event. I loved our monthly meetings where we reviewed progress and tackled any roadblocks together. It kept everything on track! Caroline provided a personalized checklist that perfectly aligned with my vision and timeline. It was so helpful! Choosing vendors was a breeze with her help! She knew exactly who would fit my style, making the overwhelming options manageable. I didn’t have to lift a finger with RSVPs and meal choices; everything was handled. She designed the menus, welcome sign, seating chart and place cards beautifully. On the day, Caroline handled all logistics, allowing my loved ones and me to focus on celebrating. The setup was flawless, and they even coordinated the ceremony, ensuring everyone knew their roles. At the end of the event, everything was pack up , gifts and decor, which was a huge relief. If you’re looking for an event planner who truly cares and executes every detail flawlessly, I highly recommend Protea Event Planners! They turned my vision into reality, and I can’t thank them enough!
Caroline is the BEST!
Out of all of the many many decisions we made for our day, booking with Protea Event Planners was the best decision we made hands down. Caroline was a pleasure to work with and totally calmed any of our stress and anxiety during the days leading up - I can honestly say it’s because of her that we had a completely stress-free wedding day! Not only was it her lovely presence that made the day go perfectly, it was also her skill, natural talent, and years of experience in the industry. She put out all of the small fires, kept everything and everyone involved on time and running smoothly (with a huge bridal party, off-site church ceremony, and two wedding dress looks), and made every detail, no matter how small, of our vision come to life! She made herself extremely available and accessible for our many questions and concerns and never made us feel crazy :) Caroline absolutely went above and beyond for us and we cannot emphasize enough how crucial of a part she was in our day being so amazing. She is already booked for another wedding in the family because of how much we all loved working with her. If you’re thinking of working with Protea Event Planners, book it - you will not regret it!
