"Your true gift was connecting fabulous people to work together with my mom and me to clarify a vision and magically make it happen. Thank you so very much for empowering me to be a calm, but excited, proud bride." Lisa Rainey Fraser 5.30.10
"Our wedding was a dream come true…it was perfect. We both truly appreciate your hard work and operational excellence – our guests loved everything and it will be a night we will never forget." Matt and Emily Busbridge 5.1.10
"All of our wedding party commented that it was the most organized rehearsal and pre-ceremony time they had ever seen." Haley and Patrick Boswell 6.14.2009
“What can I say to tell you how much you helped me get through this wedding. It may be second nature to you, but to us, because of your help, it was wonderful.
Your recommendations on the flowers, cake baker, band, hair stylist, tuxedo rental were all acted upon and proved to be most positive experiences. These contacts were courteous, knowledgable, knew their business and could be relied upon to do an excellent job.
I really enjoyed the ease of communication that we achieved over these past months. In fact, I think I will miss that! Our e-mails were quick, informative and sometimes quite humorous. You have to have humor in your business!
I just wanted you to know what a pleasure it was to work with you.”

"Cris Bernstein makes the planning, preparation, and execution of a wedding and reception a joyful event for the bride & groom and her parents. Our daughter and her husband were married in Kiawah last October. It was a destination wedding for both families. My daughter and I spent three days with Cris in early spring to make the initial decisions and then had monthly emails and phone discussions with Cris as details were completed. The bride and groom met with Cris in September for two days to do their menu tasting and decide on any finishing touches that needed to be made. When we arrived the week of the wedding everything was in place and there was not a thing for us to worry over. Cris managed the entire weekend for us: from the rehearsal on Friday until our daughter and her husband left on Saturday evening. It was such a pleasure to truly be able to share this experience with our daughter, her husband and all the guests and not have to deal with any issues that might arise. We are still receiving comments on how wonderful the weekend was and how special each event was. Cris has the resources, organization skill and management style to create a wonderful wedding weekend. I would definitely work with her again --- and hope we have the opportunity to, if our son ever gets married!!!!! Linda and Frank Nutter
"I didn’t know what to expect going into the wedding process, but I knew from friends that it would require tearing my hair out at some point. Then we were lucky enough to find you. From the start, you made me feel pretty positive. You gave us confidence that things would get done in time and in the way we wanted them. You always had excellent suggestions and a good understanding of our daughter’s basic plan. Thanks to you, we had a beautiful and memorable occasion. The whole family enjoyed it tremendously.
So, it is with my hair in place and my sanity intact that I thank you so much for helping my daughter create the wedding of her dreams."

"You are one of the best coordinators we've encountered yet. Thanks for always being so professional and kind." Shyrod of Papa Sol Entertainment Group
