I cannot emphasize this enough - GET A WEDDING PLANNER Y'ALL! I am the biggest planner on the planet…not even joking. But planning a wedding? You NEED someone there to guide you through all the steps, timelines, vendor recommendations, etc. so that you can truly enjoy your wedding day. I sifted through various wedding websites, google reviews, and even Facebook groups looking for recommendations on wedding planners and CM Promotions popped up numerous times. I spoke with Cindy and within 2-3 minutes I knew I would be in good hands with this vendor! Cindy made me feel secure after initially feeling overwhelmed with the wedding process and paired me up with Karissa - needless to say it was a match made in heaven.

Y'all Karissa is an angel. AN ANGEL. I went with full-service wedding planning and Karissa was with me through every step of the way. We had various planning meetings, she helped curate our vision to perfection, and she even came with us to vendor meetings - and every single time she would show up and genuinely be happy to help us. She even would bring us treats/flowers and now I have a full-blown addiction to Cookie Society, but that is a subject for another time. In the last few months when timelines started going into crunch time, Karissa helped keep me calm as we waded those waters together. She even picked up wedding items from our house and dropped them off after! This was a huge help to take some of that load off of my parents/family the weekend of the wedding. When you are planning a wedding - you have a ton of ideas bouncing around in your head and it such a blessing to have a dedicated person to talk to about all things wedding!

The day of the wedding - Karissa was everywhere. I literally mean anywhere and EVERYWHERE that girl was running in the full-blown rain, setting up the rooms, keeping all of the wedding party on time and comfortable - she was magic. Literally everyone at the wedding was even asking, "Who is she?!" because she was so on top of it. We had a ROWDY group, and you can tell Karissa has a teacher background by how quickly and easily she can gather everyone's attention all while having a good time. I am pretty sure we ended up giving her a huge round of applause because she was that impressive (we may have been chanting "MVP"). I had quite a few details incorporated into our wedding day and every single idea came to fruition and was perfect. I owe it all to Karissa. I have so much respect and love for Karissa and the CM Promotions team - y'all made our dream a reality and we could not be more grateful.

Annika and team were amazing helping with the final coordination of my special day. She ensured I was well taken care of throughout the entire event. So appreciative for Annika seeing my vision and implementing it

Absolutely incredible! Detailed oriented, great knowledge, expertise and incredible attitude. Karissa is lovely. Great experience. Highly recommend!
