Expressionary Events

After many hours of internet research, we scheduled interviews with four wedding planners who we felt could provide wedding day-of services. Our first and ONLY meeting-we were thoroughly impressed, so we canceled other appointments-was with Carmen of Expressionary Events. We were early, but Carmen was earlier. She was well informed, very prepared, highly qualified, and a genuinely nice person. Most importantly, she appeared to ENJOY the business. O.K., first impressions are great, but did Expressionary Events deliver you ask? Quality of Service: We are both in our 40s and are not easily impressed anymore. Carmen and her team, which included Kevin, managed every single detail of our ceremony and reception exceptionally well. Expressionary Events provided us with an invaluable and detailed timeline of our wedding day. What we envisioned became reality! Responsiveness: We had absolutely no problems communicating with staff. Email and telephone responses were returned, if not the same day, by the next day. Professionalism: I actually asked our vendors about Expressionary Events' staff. All vendor responses were positve. Staff dressed in formal wear and looked like wedding guests the day of the wedding. Value: Our research shows Expressionary Events' prices are very competitive. In fact, given the logistics of our wedding, Carmen added more staff at no extra charge. Reheasal was also included in their already reasonable price. Flexibility: Carmen and staff did everything in their power within reason to satisfy the bride and groom. I, the groom, was involved in much of the planning process and can attest to the flexibility of Expressionary Events. We had a few unexpected day-of changes with the schedule. No one, but me and the coordinating staff knew about the changes because Carmen handled matters discretely. In summary, many of our guests commented about how the wedding ceremony and reception proceeded smoothy and without any hitches. Carmen, Kevin, and staff know the wedding business and can definitely make wedding dreams come true. Finally, I can assure you Carmen and staff are good people who, when hired, will work their tales off to provide you with exceptional service. -Extremely satisfied Bride and Groom, 3-24-12

I was a bride who thought that I had EVERYTHING under control for my wedding, but as the day drew closer I was becoming more and more stressed out and that's were the services of Carmen Robledo stepped in. After meeting with numerous amounts of wedding planners I knew Carmen was the one because she was the most organized and was willing to be with me every step of the way. The day of the wedding was even more beautiful than I could have imagined. Everything was perfect down to the last detail! So for all you future brides reading this, I HIGHLY recommend Carmen to do your wedding. She turned my dreams into reality and made them even better :)

Carmen and Kevin helped make my wedding more beautiful than I could have imagined. They are both so creative! They listened to my desires and produced my dreams. Their services eliminated so much stress and doubt I was carrying by trying to plan my wedding myself. They are both such down to earth people, I truly enjoyed having them as a part of my wedding process.

From the moment we met Carmen and her team our first impression of them was that they were detailed, organized and professional. We assumed their packages would be expensive based on their quality of services, so when we were told their package pricing we were ecstatic that we would be able to afford their services. My fiancé and I decided to go with Expressionary Events’ full service package. Carmen was our planner and she was well informed in all areas wedding and was able to provide us with a spectacular venue as well as professional vendors. Carmen set up meetings with a photographer, videographer, Pastor, florist, DJ, and caterer, which we booked all of them the same day. The planning process was so seamless and relaxed. Carmen was always available to us and responded quickly with any question we had. She was in constant contact and was able to keep us within our budget with out compromising the look and feel we wanted at our wedding.   On the day of our wedding Carmen and her team provided exceptional service. I not once had to worry about finding any of my bridal party or running late. She kept us on time. The best part was that everyone had so much fun at our wedding. It was amazing to see the final product after all the months of planning done with Carmen. She was able to capture the vision I had for my wedding. Thank you so much to Expressionary Events you are definitely an awesome company to have worked with. 

Its not often that I take time to write a review about a company, but I feel obliged because of how much expressionary events did for me. I was really hesitant about hiring a planner. Mainly because I was on a tight budget. After a short time I realized that hiring a planner can actually SAVE me money. Carmen (Expressionary Events) explained to me that because she has such great relationships with vendors she can cut out the “negotiating” and just get me the best deal possible. I interviewed several planners and when I met with Carmen I felt like we just had really great chemistry. I felt like she had a great attention to detail….which is something I lack. She was able to take my vision and bring it to life. More than anything I just felt like I could trust her with my wedding. They made the entire event very a personable experience. I felt like they really got to know me, so they understood what I wanted my wedding day to be like. I was able to enjoy the day of my wedding because I felt like the details were being handled by my “fairy god planners.” I have recommended them to all of my friends, and will continue to do so.
