    My wife and I were recently married in Tulsa, Oklahoma. We knew several people that had used Christina Leigh Events before us and they were all very happy, so CLE was the obvious choice for us. As the groom / household accountant, I will admit that I played more of a cost saving role in our planning process. So when my fiance suggested that we hire a wedding planner, I was a little skeptical. Our budget was growing like a tomato in August, and I was feeling a little pressure to cut corners. That said, now that our wedding has come and gone, using CLE to help plan and coordinate our event was the best decision we could have made. Using CLE allowed us to relax and enjoy the entire weekend. So many of my friends have had their events diminished by the stress of last minute planning and 'day of' decision making. Christina Leigh Events did all of that for us. We did what we were supposed to do, which is have the best time of our lives. CLE coordinated with all of our vendors, directed the rehearsal, kept everything organized and on time at the actual ceremony, expedited pictures after the wedding, and oversaw the set up and tear down of our reception. We didn't have to do a thing except enjoy the day. And at the conclusion of our evening, Christina had personally delivered all of the gifts/props/pictures/flowers/etc to our bridal suite, along with a cold bottle of champagne. If I had ten pages to fill it would not be enough to convey how much we enjoyed working with CLE and how much my wife and I appreciate the incredible job Christina and her staff did with our wedding. Christina worked so hard to make everything perfect. She handled every issue that came up calmly and confidently. In the months leading up to our wedding, Christina made herself readily available, replying to emails, calls and text messages in a timely fashion. She was generous with her knowledge and always willing to help. My wife and I highly recommend CLE for coordination/planning of any event.

    Christina Leigh Events is awesome! I would highly recommend hiring CLE if you're planning a wedding. She was such a blessing to us. Everything was just perfect. She and her assistant were so wonderful to work with. She was so sweet and patient with us, but is also very capable of taking care of things that needed to be done. She definitely knows what she's doing. If you're thinking about hiring her as your wedding planner, just do it! You will be so happy you did. She really listens to what you like and turns it into a reality. :)

    Thank you so much for your kind words, Nia. It was truly a pleasure to work with you for your sweet daughters wedding!

    CLE was wonderful! At the time I was the most stressed and worried about the wedding coming together, Christina and Katie swooped in and made sure all my anxieties were addressed. They provided day of coordination for the wedding. They helped me make my timeline, coordinate my vendors, made sure everyone was where they needed to be, helped with last minute day-of details, and even made sure we got something to eat at the reception. It made the wedding day enjoyable for me, my mom and my family. Not only did they make sure everything went smoothly, they were able to answer my questions a long the way. It was well worth the price! Not only was the service great, but the people were even more wonderful :)

    Christina Leigh Events's reply:

    We were honored to serve you for your wedding, Caitlyn! It was so much fun helping you plan your day, and we are so glad you were able to enjoy your special day (and eat, too)!

    Having Christina at our side for our daughters wedding, was, by far, the best decision we could have made. She had great ideas, kept us on track, had great recommendations for other vendors, and calmed our nerves when the weather didn't want to cooperate! The wedding went off beautifully. She made a timeline for all the pictures, when to arrive, the ceremony, entering reception, first dance, cake cutting, etc. As the mother of the bride, I don't know what I would have done without her. The day of your daughters wedding is an important one. You want to enjoy it, not stress over all the details. Christina makes that all possible.

    Christina Leigh Events's reply:

    Diana, you all are such a blessing! It was my pleasure to stand by your side during planning and the day of sweet Brooke's wedding. No time for bad weather here, only the perfect spot for the sun to shine down on such a wonderful couple as they said I Do! Thank you so much for your kind words.

    I could actually enjoy my wedding instead of worrying about details because Christina had it all under control! I recommend her for any event planning!

    Christina Leigh Events's reply:

    Thank you so much, Megan! It's most definitely our job to worry about the details and let you just be the bride. :)

    My daughter Lindsay and I highly recommend Christina Clayton Frederick of Christina Leigh Events as a wedding coordinator and designer. She worked closely with us over a 13 month period and the end result was amazing and just what Lindsay dreamed it would be! Christina was professional from day 1. Her attention to detail and eye for design were spot on. She also knows of and uses only the best, most reliable wedding resources in her design work. Without a doubt, Christina is the best!

    Christina Leigh Events's reply:

    Thank you, Debbie! What an honor to spend a year as a part of your "family." It was so much fun planning and designing Lindsay's day and I am so glad you had a wonderful experience!

    One of the best decisions was to hire Christina Leigh Events to help with 'day-of coordination' for my wedding. I did not have to worry about a single thing that day except to enjoy the day and celebrate with family and friends! Excellent work with the ability to handle all different situations. Highly recommend!

    Christina Leigh Events's reply:

    Thank you for the kind review, Vanessa! We are so happy you were able to enjoy your day! It was our pleasure to be there for you to say I Do!

    My sister recommended me to Christina. Christiana was amazing! Our wedding was in Tulsa, Ok and I was in Kansas City, Mo and had no idea what to do! I wasn't able to meet with any of my vendors because of being out of state. She was able to contact all the vendors and set up what we wanted. We can not get over how much she made our day stress free! My biggest concern the day of the wedding was waking up! I didn't have to deal with vendors calling me asking for any details.
    We booked our wedding ceremony and reception with The German American Society. At first they told us we could flip the venue and add the tables after the ceremony. A week before the wedding they said we couldn't do that. I didn't want my guests sitting at a table during the ceremony, and I was upset with the GAST that they changed their minds especially in such short time. Christina made it happen where the tables were added after the wedding! She is amazing! I wouldn't have been able to pull off an amazing wedding without her!
    All of my guests were amazed at how smoothly all the transitions went! Thank you Christina, you are truly amazing at what you do!

    Christina did a fabulous job! When she says she will take care of everything she truly does. Neither I nor my Maid of Honor had anything to take care of or worry about. Thanks to Christina and the other wonderful vendors it was a completely stress free day. Thank you!!

    I could not have made it through my wedding day or wedding month without Christina! Absolutely great work. I seriously had zero stress. She made everything run so smoothly, which in turn, made my husband and I have a flawless wedding day that we will never forget! I would & have recommended Christina to friends & family.

    I don't even know where to begin to express my gratitude and overall joy of working with the Zinke team. They did an absolutely incredible job from day one. Christina Clayton was the coordinator who worked with my mom and me. With me living in Houston, Christina was always flexible with meetings when I was able to come in town and scheduled all of the vendors so we could fit them all in over the short weekends. She was beyond gracious and really "read" me and the design of my dreams. She recommended several local vendors and helped me narrow down. All of the vendors she suggested that I chose were incredible also. I honestly could not be happier with the whole process. Owner, Arin Zinke Robinson, was amazing too. Her design talent is awesome and she truly has vision into what you're thinking. Every event they've done is truly unique to the couple or individual. In our case, our wedding was perfectly "us" and turned out beyond anything I could have prayed for or imagined. Every detail was taken care of so kindly and professionally, Christina was so sweet to answer my e-mails over the 10 months as I am very type A and like to be involved :). Her ability to reign you in and help you figure out what it is you want since "it's your day, do what you want" is such an important mantra in the planning process. In the weeks leading up to the wedding as throughout the whole process, Christina was great at getting last minute details done without me being there. I completely trusted her taste for choosing programs and place cards without me being there and absolutely loved how they turned out! The day of was beyond amazing. Truly out of a dream. It was so fantastic to wake up and only have to think about how overjoyed I was to marry the love of my life rather than worrying about any ceremony or reception details like lighting the 216 votives on the tables. Everything went seamlessly and I have had so many compliments and people telling me the whole evening was out of a fairytale and it was the most fun wedding they've been to.

    Basically I feel like I cannot say enough nice things about Zinke and the whole team there. I VERY HIGHLY recommend them to any bride looking for an incredible, personalized, and endearing wedding planning experience. am SO happy to be married but was almost sad that the planning process was over because I won't get to see this amazing group of people as much!

    I don't know what I would have done without Zinke, thank you for all of your hard work and dedication. It more than paid off!

    Christina Leigh Events's reply:

    Thank you sweet Sarahbeth for your review. It truly was a pleasure to work with you, and we are so glad you have happy memories to last you a lifetime!

    Christina is AH-Mazing! She designed and coordinated our wedding to meet our imagination and our budget:) We couldn't have been happier with the outcome. Our friends and family are still talking about how much they loved our wedding 7 months later! We ENJOYED our wedding planning process and genuinely felt free from stress. Christina took care of everything from tying ribbon around our napkins to helping me get dressed. All we had to do was focus on each other and celebrate our marriage;)

    The Zinke girls are fantastic to work with! Their ideas are great and unique! We had a hard time with our venue and they weren't afraid to step right in and take care of uncomfortable moments. After it was all said and done my parents and I were SO glad we had decided to hire them! They made all of the difference in the world and it actually allowed us to sit back and enjoy the day!

    With less than two months to plan our wedding, I was so scared that everything would not come together in time. Working with Zinke took so much of the stress out of planning, and our wedding and reception were beyond beautiful.

    Working with Christina Leigh Events for our wedding was WONDERFUL! Christina, the owner, is reliable, organized, and always has a smile on her face. Most importantly, she made the planning process and our special day stress free. Christina had great suggestions and made huge efforts to be a part of the planning process, including attending the out-of-town tasting and bridal portraits. We could not have done it without her. I highly recommend Christina Leigh Events for planning and designing your special day -- she will help it exceed all of your expectations.
