Cara is the most amazing, professional, organized, caring, and thoughtful wedding planner - she was the HERO of our wedding. Cara was brought in to our wedding just 5 weeks prior to our date. In a moment of panic, many of our vendors told us to call Cara and they were absolutely right! Cara came in and got straight to business, kicking off our planning with a thorough lunch where we talked through her timeline and other organized materials. Her calm demeanor and absolute mastery of every detail immediately put us at ease. In her first 48 hours on the job, she successfully sourced the exact colorful linens we were looking for (despite us being told that they were impossible to find). At every turn, Cara saved the day. I had the most amazing wedding day, without an ounce of stress or anxiety, and I give Cara a ton of credit for that. Not only did she put me at ease, but you could tell that all of the other vendors felt comfortable that whatever came up "Cara was on it" or "Cara took care of it already." Despite putting out multple last minute fires, she always had a smile on her face and was a pleasure to work with every day. Cara's expertise and experience comes through in everything she touches. I can't say enough about how organized, responsive, and thougthful she was during what could have been a very stressful time for us - coming in just a month before our 240+ person wedding at the Inn at Rancho Santa Fe. Cara saved our wedding and personally gave me the ability to sit back and relax on one of the biggest days of my life. If you don't believe me, Cara was so impressive that one of my bridesmaids who recently got engaged immediately asked her if she was available to plan her wedding. Your wedding planner is one of the most important decisions of the planning process - and Cara is the best!

As the mother of a very happy bride, I would highly recommend Cara. She worked tirelessly and was always a pleasure to work with. The wedding was postponed due to the pandemic, which required a lot of shuffling. She worked two years for her fee, and still was always available with a smile on her face! We already recommended her to a friend😉

I cannot recommend Cara highly enough. She went above and beyond for my husband and I, and truly made our wedding the most special day. Cara is exceptionally diligent, has amazing attention to detail and truly has the most impeccable taste. Even 6 months after our wedding guests are still commenting on what a beautiful day it was. We are so grateful to Cara and Luxe Events for everything they did to make our wedding day perfect.
