    July 2021 review

    Carrie and Brianna did an excellent job with planning a wedding for me when I hired Touch of Elegance only 2 months before the event. They were responsive to queries, thought of many things I had not thought about. I liked that Carrie listened to what we wanted during our first call instead of asking me a checklist of questions for 20 minutes as other prospective planners did. During the wedding, Carrie was invaluable in setup, planning, communication with vendors, and overall letting us have a great experience.

    Wonderful Experience

    We had a wonderful experience working with Carrie and her team! She was exceptionally responsive and it was lovely working with both her and her family on the day of. We had to plan our wedding remotely, and Carrie was absolutely phenomenal at assisting us with our preparations. She kept our insane Indian wedding planning stay on track and provided fantastic recommendations when one of our other vendors fell through!

    She was phenomenally calm, thorough, and such a treat to work with. My husband and I were pretty high strung during the entire planning process and it was such a breath of fresh air working with TOE.

    Carrie is a wedding fairy godmother

    D.C. is lucky to have Carrie in the area. She is so reliable and helpful that I don't know how else I could've done it without her. She went above and beyond and exceeded all my expectations. She's calm and makes you feel like everything is going to be okay- and isn't that the best quality in a coordinator?

    WOW. It's hard to imagine our wedding day without Carrie and her team. Their organization and experience helped our day go off with out a hitch. Carrie is so calm, kind and helpful. She dealt with issues large and small that we experienced. She used many of the vendors that they recommended and they were all wonderful. If I could go back in time and change one thing, I would have had her plan the entire wedding! We used the day of coordination service and it was hands down the best money we spent. The planning software she gave us to use was crucial to our planning. We used it to make seating arrangement and manage RSVPs.

    Carrie and her team made our wedding a huge success!

    Other than picking the right spouse, the best decision you can make for your wedding day is hiring Carrie and team. I can't stop talking about how helpful and organized Carrie was and how wonderful it was to know my wedding day was handled. I didn't think twice about setup, or anything on the day of and I can't thank her enough for everything she did.

    We have recommended her to multiple people already, but seriously-- if you are at all debating--- JUST HIRE HER. She will make your life so much easier and take the stress of your special day away. Carrie and her team are truly rockstars and I'm so happy we found them for our wedding!

    A touch of elegance and Carrie were fantastic. They were well worth the money just for the day of coordination and work but she also met with me several times, worked with my other vendors and helped keep me on track. Our wedding day was perfect in every sense of the word and most of that was because of her team. I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone planning a wedding, especially in Detroit. She is knowledgeable, resourceful, well connected and cares about quality and details. Thank you Carrie and Co!

    I am so pleased with not only the level of service, but how warm and friendly Carrie is. It felt like working with family (minus the drama!) Thank you so much for helping me pull together my vision and making the day run smoothly.

    I was amazed at how everything came together and was broken down in a timely manner. The feedback has been positive. My guests had a wonderful time and gushed at how elegant everything was. I wouldn't hesitate for a second to recommend Touch of Elegance. Thank you so much for taking the stress of the day off of me so that I could just enjoy the magic of the wedding. My only regret is not hiring you sooner!

    Carrie was out of this world! We had a long engagement and I would say I was pretty self sufficient as a fellow amateur in event planning, but she was even able to ruffle my feathers and remind me of things I forgot! I didn't feel an ounce of stress in regards to making sure my event was executed perfectly the day of. It was a pleasure getting to work with her parents too! I would recommend Touch of Elegance to everyone and anyone for any type of event! Thank you so much for everything!

    Carrie and her team were outstanding. Not only did Carrie take care of everything; she was always calm, had the right answers with explanations and was very prompt. Her and her team went above and beyond with the work they performed and they were extremely supportive. They were all very positive and I never heard the words 'no, couldn't or cannot'. Great JOB!!!

    Jasmine and Carrie are true masters of their craft. While I wanted to do all of the planning- they allowed the freedom of choosing a "day of" package that truly let me relax and enjoy getting married. I could not have survived the day without them! We had one crisis- and they easily averted it, making sure we stayed calm and so so so happy. I can't thank them enough for giving me the opportunity to experience our marriage without worry!

    Hiring Touch of Elegance for our day-of-wedding coordination was one of the best decisions we made during the planning process. Carrie offered so many creative ideas that I did not think of, and helped me save a lot of money. Our day of coordinator ended up being Jasmine, and she was amazing! She coordinated the day-of setup flawlessly with a multitude of vendors, and her organizational skills blew us away. At no point during our wedding day did we have to worry about any details - we knew Jasmine had it covered. We even ran out of glasses during the reception and Jasmine handled it without us knowing. I heard from multiple guests about how impressed they were with her. I cannot thank Jasmine and Carrie enough for their help making our big day stress free! Worth every penny!

    We hired Touch of Elegance as day-of coordinators for our wedding this past weekend, and they were absolutely exceptional from start to finish. Carrie, the owner, is gracious and responsive, and quickly connected me with my wonderful coordinator Ayman (who is an absolute star and put up with my indecision, wildly busy schedule, and last-minute changes). In addition to confirming details with my vendors and creating a detailed timeline for the wedding day, Ayman and her assistant beautifully organized our rehearsal and ensured that everything ran smoothly from start to finish on the day of the wedding. Everything went off perfectly, and it was so wonderful not having to worry about the details (big and small!) and having someone to act as a point of contact for vendors, direct guest traffic, manage issues as they arose and keep all of us on schedule. We couldn't be happier, nor could we recommend Touch of Elegance more highly.

    We used Touch of Elegance for our wedding and they were great! Carrie and her team were so helpful. They made sure everything ran smoothly, set up all of our decorations, and even went to pick up our midnight snacks for us. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to hire a wedding planner!

    Carrie and her team were absolutely perfect. We had a big wedding with lots of moving parts, and they handled everything flawlessly. The day of we didn't worry about a thing because we knew we were in great hands with Carrie. We can't recommend them enough!

    My mother made me get a wedding planner. Thank god I did! Carrie and Diane really helped me find the perfect location, Grosse Pointe War Memorial. I wasn't stressed out at all. Im actually some what of a demanding person atleast thats what my mom says and they truly met all of my expectations. Carrie dealt with me calling 3 or 4 times a week because I was so nervous about making a decision. Diane worked with my mom to make my design a reality. They also helped me with all of my floral arrangemnts and photobooth. When my officiant last minute cancelled on me 2 weeks before the wedding I used Gail Taylor through them and he was amazing! My whole wedidng experience was truly amazing and i could not have done it with out my family and Carrie. Thank you so so mcuh.

    Cheri and her team made our wedding day PERFECT! We waited until the last minute to hire a coordinator "just to help with the day-of stuff." Let me tell you, they did so much more. Our big day went off without a single hitch and I know that the team at Touch of Elegance is to thank for that!!

    My wife & I both agree that we are SO grateful that Carrie worked with us we would've been SO lost without her! She is by far THE most patient person I know cause I have no idea how she handles the kinds of stress weddings comes with. Now let's take it to our rehearsal date : We had a VERY large bridal party (10 bridesmaids and 10 groomsmen) and handled the rehearsal very professionally, even when the boys wanted to get loud and crazy, she surely put them in their place. I'm glad she did that, cause it would've been even worse if i had to take matters into my own hands with them. Her and her staff set up our reception venue and handled everything perfectly throughout our program.

    Thank you Carrie for all that you and your staff has done to make our wedding dreams come true, STRESS FREE! I highly recommend her to anyone, because she really knows what she's doing & you can really see that she absolutely loves what she does!

    Hiring Carrie and her team for the day of coordination at our wedding was the best decision we made! From the start of our wedding week she handled every single detail both planned and unexpected and let us just enjoy our day. I honestly don't know how we would have made it without her! HIGHLY recommend her and her team for any of your wedding/party planning needs!

    Do yourself (and bridal party) a favor and book the Day Of Planning package. It was so worth the price for us. I knew that this was the best thing I could do for myself, mom, MOH, and husband by the end of our first meeting...little did I know then just how far this team would go for me. Carrie is beyond qualified to handle any event, I am absolutely positive of this. Even when I failed to communicate changes, when I was absent or preoccupied with something else, she had the ability to carry out my vision. I wish I knew just how much I could trust her to complete my vision back then....I would have enjoyed a lot more sleep! But take it from me, not really a bride-zilla but a definite worry-wart, let Carrie throw you the party of your dreams! Just trust her. She knows what she is doing and you will not be disappointed. If any one person has the magic ability to be multiple places at once and 5 steps ahead of you the entire month before your wedding and up until you big day it's Carrie and her phenomenal team.

    I literally showed up to my wedding, looked pretty and had a great time. Katrina took care of EVERYTHING. From setting up the venues (church and receptional hall) to packing the candy vases when the night was over. I can honestly attest that my wedding would have not been as successful or fun had it not been for Touch Of Elegance Events & Designs.
    On the day of my wedding, Carrie did all the set-up at the reception, I basically handed her a bunch of trinkets/decorations and her creative eye made the room look better than I could have ever imagined.
    Her attention to detail is impeccable and she is very trustworthy and thoughtful. I am grateful beyond words that she was there to make everything run smoothly so that my husband, family, guests and I could enjoy the day. I recommended Touch of Elegance wholeheartedly to anyone considering hiring a wedding event designer. HIRE Touch of Elegance! They are truly the best

    Can i give a 10 star rating? Great Company with great design professionalism. Everything with Carrie and her team was excellent, they helped from scheduling the venues, room blocks, flowers, photographer, dj, everything! They gave a touch of excellent and success of the event as their name implies, they over saw everything from planning to coordinating the event. I would highly recommend Touch of Elegance Events & Designs team and invite them for more occasions. Thank You!

    Five stars really does not do this company justice. Touch of Elegance Events & Designs made my wedding a DREAM WEDDING literally! I cant even thank Carrie and her crew enough for my beautiful day. Carrie moved my wedding reception location because the venue I had was not working with her and Carrie wasn't going to settle for anything less than perfect. If I was to write down everything Carrie did for me and my husband I would be going on for DAYS!!! Your wedding day will be everything you imagine and more if you hire Touch of Elegance Events & Designs!!! I did not know Carrie before my wedding planning, but I felt like she was a sister that took control and made my day perfect. I cannot say enough about Carrie and her crew.... THEY ARE AMAZING!!!! Everyone that attended my wedding couldn't stop talking about how beautiful my day was and all I could do is tell them it wasn't me, it was Touch of Elegance Events & Designs.

    Do not shop around, Touch of Elegance Events & can fully handle any and everything you could possibly imagine about your special day.
    I have amazing memories from my very perfect day thanks to Touch of Elegance! They are perfect in every way!!!
