• It is Simple - Carmela is the absolute best!

    As a wedding coordinator, she is organized, knowledgeable, and easily accessible. Carmela took the time to learn about me and tailor her ideas to my needs and wants. Her attention to detail is the best you've ever seen!

    As a travel agent, she is just amazing! Our honeymoon was easy-going and trouble-free. Everything, I mean EVERYTHING, was taken care of by Carmela. The Royal Hideaway was the perfect honeymoon spot. We have recommended this hot spot to many of our friends.

    As a friend, Carmela is genuine and sincere. Our bride/coordinator relationship definitely stayed professional; but I can honestly say that she turned into a great friend. She is fun and fabulous J.

    I must mention that I was not the easiest client to work with. I was to be wed in Austin, Texas but resided in San Antonio, Texas. I not only lived in a different city, but I was a third year law student with an extremely demanding schedule. I know for a fact that I could not have pulled off my dream wedding without Carmela.

  • Our daughter’s wedding was perfection at its best. You made everything easy seem so easy, given that Lindsey was in her last year of law school it was exactly what we needed. Everyone who attended said it was a “Princess Wedding”. We can’t thank you enough.

  • The wedding was fabulous. I could not have dreamed of anything better. The flowers, the food, the music, the wine, and even the little things like my hair and makeup, everything was just perfect. I got so many compliments from the guests saying that it was the loveliest they'd ever attended. You truly outdid yourself. I remember that you mentioned some time ago that you were going to feature this wedding in the knot, Is that still the plan? I think that if people are able to see my wedding they will be lining up ready for you to throw them the same fabulous party. It was so beautiful, and yet so unique. When I was describing my "colors" to people I would just say wine and cheese, since we didn't have the traditional two "colors." It was whimsical, but at the same time still traditional. The table seating turned out beautiful as well, I loved the T-table, and I'm glad we stuck with the seating arrangement. It seemed to work out so well. I could go on and on about everything. Rocky and I just kept saying afterwards that we really did have the perfect wedding. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

  • Thank you so much for all of your help! You were an invaluable asset! The entire evening was just like a fairy tale and I loved every second. We couldn't have done it without you! You were so helpful throughout the entire wedding process, offering wonderful advice and keeping me organized and on top of things we we all know how disorganized I can be! You were so easy to work with, you handled our dynamic family amazingly. I don't think anyone else could have don what you did and kept your style and composure so gracefully. All the extra work you did really made the difference. The wedding morning was so hectic with the addition of the storm and we really needed help in areas we had no idea we would, you stepped up and did it all! The tables looked perfect, I couldn't believe how well everything turned out. When I stepped out into the yard, I was amazed, it was exceptional! What a wonderful evening! Thank you again for everything. You are the best!

  • Semmes and I can not thank you enough for the wonderful job you did with our wedding. You really went to extra mile to make everything perfect on our wedding day. Everyone keeps telling us how gorgeous everything looked. It was such a relief to know that you had everything taken care of and did all the stressing for me so that I could relax on such a stressful day. You were so much help with all of the pre-wedding planning too. I really appreciate all of your creative ideas that made our wedding unique and memorable. There is no way we could have planed this wedding in the Bahamas from Texas with out you. This wedding was everything and more that we had hoped for and we have you to thank for all of it.

    Semmes and Lauren Blankenship
  • We cannot tell you, sufficiently, how thankful we are that our daughter, Natalie, chose you to be her wedding planner for her wedding at the Azul Beach Hotel in Puerto Morellos, Mexico, on 6/28/08.

    You were the only reason we all kept our sanity. We could not have done it without you. I can remember last year, some comments from various family members and friends, who would say “oh well, since this is a destination wedding, you won’t need your own wedding planner”.

    I strongly disagreed with them then, and now that we have experienced such a wonderful event, we realize that working with you made it possible for us to give our daughter and her husband a truly memorable wedding celebration. By the way, those same family members and friends who attended the wedding also now agreed with us. They were all blown away!!

    You were so fun to work with and you made all those details seem like nothing.

    You were our voice and representative when we had to deal with the on-site staff to arrange a wedding so beautiful. You took any stress away from us and put it directly on your own shoulders. Thank you for all of that.

    Natalie and Lance are on their way home now from Mexico and are already telling everybody how terrific it all was.

    I hope to talk to you soon. We’ll never forget you.

    Thanks for everything,

    Gloria and Richard Esquivel
  • The meeting today went AMAZINGLY....Beatriz, her partner Juan Carlos mother covadonga and the priest are the nicest, most accomodating people I have ever met. All they kept saying is how they want to do whatever we need. Toledo and the cathedral are beautiful and I am so excited for tomorrow. Everything is set, and nothing needs to be done. Thanks again for making this a reality!

    Nicolette (soon to be) Crimmins
  • Russ and I wanted to thank you sincerely for all of your hard work planning our wedding. You made what can very easily be a stressful event, stress free. From our first meeting, you assured us of your responsibilities. You answered our questions before we could come up with answers for ourselves. We will recommed your services to anyone interested. After recommending you, we will suggest that they allow you to do what you did so well for us. We hope they do. We thank you Carmela. We will be thanking you for years to come.

  • Carmela Hartman is absolutely the BEST WEDDING PLANNER ever! My husband and I found ourselves in an unusual and stressful position where we were starting all over with our wedding plans just 3 months before our wedding. We met Carmela, and from the start she was wonderful! She took a very emotional situation and helped us to turn it around. We had a destination wedding in San Francisco, CA and everything was just beautiful! From the hotel, to the church, to the reception, I never had to worry about a thing. Carmela had all the details under control, and I was able to just enjoy my day. My husband and I had the most memorable day of our lives, and we will cherish the experience forever. Thanks to Carmela, our wedding was the biggest blessing for us as well as for our families!

  • We knew we wanted to go to Mexico for our HM. I called Carmela and told what amenities we wanted, our budget and we when we wanted to go. She sent me several proposals and we chose the one we wanted. She was very responsive over the phone and email and very easy to work with.

  • Hello Carmela, We had a wonderful honeymoon!!! Thank you for your extra attention while we were gone, and thank you very much for the wine and fruit, and the champagne upon arrival! If you need any info on either resort for future reference I would be happy to give it, they were both amazing and we hope to return to both in the future. As far as future trips we definitely plan on using your services, we should talk sometime about our business travels as well, we have 6 seminars a year that need hotels and flights, with priorities being 1.) flight times and 2.) price
