Carisa and cr socials were absolutely amazing! Words can't even describe how grateful we were to have Carisa and her guidance throughout the wedding process! She is fantastic at her job and you can tell she loves doing it! We would definitely recommend her! She made sure our day was perfect and I was able to relax and enjoy with my feet up, stress free!

Carisa was the best investment we made in our wedding! From the beginning, she was so professional, organized, and detail oriented. She instantly makes you feel comfortable, and when the big day came, she had everything under control!

I first got in touch with CR Socials when my fiance and I were having trouble locating a unique venue that could fit into a modest budget without sacrificing quality. Carisa came through and identified several options, including the one we would eventually choose. On the wedding day, several of the guests were so impressed with the venue and setting and many of them asked how we even were able to get access to this private site! Carisa was great to work with and helped me stay sane and focused throughout the wedding planning process - even though I hired her just for venue idnetification and day of coordination. And of course, on the day of the wedding, my bridal party and I simply had to relax and get beautified while Carisa and team took care of all the set up and coordination with vendors, final payments, etc. I was so thankful to have the CR Socials team working for me on my wedding day. I would not hesitate to recommend CR Socials to others looking for a little help staying on track, or for full planning services.

I hired Carisa for the rehearsal/wedding day of package. She was so helpful in organizing everything for our big day. She also did a great job of seting up everything that banquet facilites do not set up for you. I am so glad I hired Carisa, because I knew everything was taken care of and I knew that if I had a last minute problem I could go right to her to resolve it (Which I did!). I would definitely hire her again and would reccommend her to anyone. I will keep her name top on my list if we ever need services she provides again.

CR Socials Event Planning was one of the best decisions I made in planning my wedding. I planned most of the wedding myself and worked up until 3 days before the wedding. A child hood friend recommended me getting someone to help me in the weeks leading up to make sure I was completely stress free. While my venue helped a lot that day, Carisa from CR Socials made sure I had nothing to worry about. She confirmed all my vendors, made a detailed schedule of the day and made such I had nothing to worry about. It was so important to me that my mom, bridesmaids, maid of honor enjoy the day as well. Carisa is very passionate about what she does and really makes sure you are stress free the day of your wedding. I can't thank CR Socials enough for making my day even more of a fairy tale. I was able to enjoy my wedding and not worry about one thing.

Carisa was booked for my day but had Shannon and Alisha take care of me and also my husband to be.
Even though most of the reception details were covered by the banquet facility, Shannon and Alisha were professional and on the ball with all the other details that needed to be done. All was set up the way we wanted and they took care of our guests as well as us. Thank you very much and I would use them again for any event planning we may need.

Carisa Lockery from CR Socials was the peace of mind I needed on my special day. Carisa took care of my ceremony, making sure everything ran smoothly & picture perfect. I was able to breathe easy knowing she had everything in control. From chair set up and decor to the beautiful music that played, Carisa did it flawlessly. She also did some running around for me, and as little as it may seem to her, was such a big help to me. I highly recommend Carisa to any bride looking for her perfect day! She is responsible, caring, energetic and creative and just a pleasure to work with!!!! Thank you Carisa from the bottom of my heart for all your help, advise and attention to detail.....wedding planning is definitely your calling & I will definitely tell everyone I know! Elaine LaBanca

Carisa is a pleasure and she takes direction well, but you have to give her a whole lot of direction. She doesn't take initiative when there are things that clearly need doing. I felt that I was micro-managing her throughout the day. However, you cannot beat her price. I'd recommend her to someone willing to go through every detail of the day with her beforehand. If you don't explicitly tell her to do something (even something obvious, like cleaning up after the ceremony) then it will not be done.

Carisa has been very instrumental in helping me plan for my wedding. I used her for consultation services and it was really great. She is always responsive and very easy to get in touch with. She's also extremely organized and has some great ideas for the day of the wedding, helping you "tweak" all those little details. Definately a pleasure to work with.

Carisa recently planned my daughter's wedding and she was exceptional!
We didn't have to worry about a thing, she was on top of it all, very organized and always with a smile on her face even though I'm sure it was stressful at times - she kept that all away from us, which was great!
She went above and beyond what we expected.
We would highly recommend her for any event!

everything went well but needs some fine tuning on the way things go and everything needs to be in place be for they start and the bride should not have to keep going to the planner to let them know that not all the cakes were there and that the glasses should be filled for the toasted and it justs needs to be organized well

I had the extreme pleasure of attaining CR Socials as a wedding planner. Carisa was always available. She was open to suggestion. Her ideas were fresh and welcomed. For any future events, I will have only one name at the top of my list and that will be CR Socials.
