love letters
Charlie and her team were an absolute dream to work with. We chose the "full planning" package for our wedding and I HIGHLY recommend.
The planning process almost felt too easy, Charlie was one step ahead of everything. She was also great at understanding exactly what our vision was - but also being flexible to accommodate our budget and both of our cultures.
She and her team are well versed in the wedding community- and a valuable resource to have in your corner. They are able to bring their years of experience and knowledge to every vendor interaction and guide you along the way.
On the day of - we truly don’t know what we would of done without her. As soon as she arrived on the wedding day we didn’t have to worry about a single thing. We really felt like we were able to enjoy the day! She and her team worked with all the vendors and our families to make sure everything ran smoothly.
I can’t recommend their services enough to any couples planning their wedding, Pretty Plans was completely worth it!!
- Amanda and Austin Amorim-Dasilva
HUGE thank you for all of your team's help in making our wedding run so smoothly!
I can’t count how many times I said thank god for Charlie and her team throughout the day - you all truly made everything so easy and we couldn’t have done it without you!!
We will definitely recommend you to anyone getting married in the future!
- Monica and Adrian Altomare
Charlie is absolutely amazing. The amount of detail she pays attention to is insane!
Charlie helped me from day 1 for organizing and planning my wedding and I didn’t think I could be any more impressed with her until the actual day of my wedding when she went above and beyond when it came to everything.
My day would not have been the same without her!! So so grateful and happy for her and her team!
- Samantha and Nick McParland
Words frankly don’t do justice for how incredible Charlie and her team were to work with. They nailed every aspect of our wedding.
We had a 2 year engagement and she was with us every step of the way. From the very beginning she tackled every task and ensured we were well-covered but never overwhelmed or stressed with tasks or to do lists.
Her knowledge is extensive and she helped not only in providing advice but also in sourcing vendors and dealing with them throughout the entire process. She was the primary point of contact and made sure it was one less thing for us to do.
She was extremely professional but also such a pleasure to work with and made the process genuinely fun.
As we approached the day her attention to detail really shone and it was incredible to see all her hard work come to light on our day.
We can’t stress this enough - nothing went wrong on our wedding day and it was entirely a result of Charlie and her teams tireless efforts. The day flowed smoothly, the florals and decor were beyond our wildest dreams, and everyone was well fed and on the dance floor right on schedule.
She brought our vision to life and we can never thank her enough. Would highly highly recommend you work with the Pretty Plans team.
- Theresa and Josh Lundy
Working with Charlie and her team as our month of coordinators for our wedding was one of the best decisions that we made throughout the entire planning process.
The Pretty Plans team ensured that everything was organized leading up to the event, and Randi and Emily both ensured that our day ran smoothly, making sure that our wedding party was on time for photos, speeches were happening as they were supposed to, that my husband and I were taking time to ourselves to eat, etc.
Truly do not know what we would have done without them and and cannot recommend them enough.
If you are on the fence about needing a month of/day of coordinator - do it!
Charlie, you're an absolute machine!
- Sarah and Antonis Drivas
Wow! Hands down, having Charlie and her Pretty plans team help with our wedding was one of the best decisions we made!
We had Charlie as our month of coordinator and as many know, most of the small details come together in the final month.
On our wedding day, we were able to be in the moment and truly enjoy our day. Charlie was there to keep us calm and on track while behind the scenes staying in touch with our vendors making sure they were all on schedule. At the same time,
Emily was at our venue making our vision a reality and it was just perfect and there was absolutely zero stress for us!
From beginning to end, it was obvious that Charlie’s #1 goal was to make sure that we were happy and everything was going to plan.
She was constantly checking in with us and we had family/friends comment on how obvious it was that she had everything under control!
Thanks to Charlie, our wedding day was just perfect and we were able to enjoy every moment without having to worry about anything.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU Charlie and Pretty Plans! We would 100% recommend you to all future couples looking for help in making their wedding day come together so perfectly!
- Erika and Josh Brunner
Charlie and the Pretty Plans team helped my husband and I plan the most amazing day!
We worked together from 6 weeks out and without her I do not know how our wedding would have came together.
I would highly recommend working with Pretty Plans as there are so many little details that are easy to miss.
She was extremely organized from the onset and responsive to all questions in a timely manner. She also made suggestions for vendors that I was still unsure about and additions to the wedding that helped bring the day together.
I highly recommend!
- Cara and Sean Donnell
I don't even know where to start with thanking Charlie and her team at Pretty Plans.
After our first call, my husband declared that it was by far the best money we spent on the wedding.
Charlie was so easy to talk to throughout the whole process, kept us on track with weekly checklists and was an absolute dream on the day.
Charlie and team helped with everything from my veil, bustling my dress, setting up the venue, keeping our speeches on time and coordinating all of our vendors.
Our wedding party and family could not believe how organised everything was and stress free for all of us! We even got the comment that it was the most organised ceremony one groomsmen had ever been in (and he's been in quite a few!).
110% recommend Charlie and team for your wedding day!!
- Claire and Charlie Smith
HIRE THEM IMMEDIATLY!! I can't begin to put into words what Charlie and her team meant to us on our wedding day.
The entire planning process was 100% stress free and so fun with them.
Charlie made sure every single detail was accounted for and organized. I have a very type A personality and I don't like relinquishing control, but without hesitation, I was able to take a back seat and let her and her team drive for the last few weeks leading up and especially on the day of.
We could not have done this day without her. She is the sweetest human you will ever meet and an absolute MUST HAVE. We love you Charlie, you're an absolute machine!
- Rebecca and Emmanuel Athanassakos
I cannot recommend Charlie and her team enough. She seriously made my wedding experience SO much better.
She and her team were so responsive throughout the whole experience, and so helpful with making quick decisions. The attention to detail allowed me to relax throughout the planning process.
On the day of the wedding she was so calm and collected, which made me feel so comfortable knowing that she had everything covered.
At the same time she is so friendly, but can also take charge of a situation if needed.
Hiring Pretty Plans was worth every penny, and I would recommend them to anyone I know!
- Lianne and Mike Rice
I worked with Charlie and Emily to make my dream wedding come to life.
We picked the month-of package and it was truly a life saver.
They helped us tie off any loose ends and really were integral to our day. I am so grateful for the weekly calls and the ability to call Emily with a problem and have her solve it or work through it with me.
I was so sad when we were done because it meant no more weekly chats with her.
Thank you again to the Pretty Plans team for being truly amazing, They really care about you and it shows in their work.
- Rachel and Jeff Fenwick
Cannot recommend Charlie and her team enough!
We went with the month-of coordination for our wedding day which was the best decision we ever made.
Charlie took us from clueless to organized in the span of 2 months, and executed the most flawless day.
Somehow everything went right and we definitely credit this success to the Pretty Plans team!
If you want a planner that is highly knowledgeable, responsive, and fun to work with then this is the right place for you!
- Vanessa and Ethan Plewes
My wife and I put Charlie and her team to the test by having her help us plan our 100 person wedding in under 3 months in my parents backyard. She nailed it.
Starting 3 months out Charlie would have weekly meetings with us and give us our to-do lists. This helped us a lot in order to keep us in the loop with all the vendors and filling in all the blanks my wife and i had no idea about. Due to our time constraint we didn't have many options and had to make quick decisions, luckily for us, this is not Charlie's first rodeo and her connections within the industry helped make our day come together.
Charlie was very responsive throughout the entire 3 months, she would get back to us in a timely manner which we really appreciated due to our time constraints.
On the day of the wedding she killed it. Made our dream wedding come to light, everything was exactly how my wife and I envisioned.
We cannot thank Pretty Plans enough for there dedication to make our Wedding day a success. Overall we would recommend Charlie to anyone who needs assistance with the wedding planning or just the day of. Her packages are priced perfectly and Charlie will not let you down. You can tell she loves her job and making her clients happy.
- Alexandra and Stefan Doma
Can't recommend highly enough! Pretty Plans was extremely proactive with communication leading up to the day and planned an amazing wedding for us.
Day of was stress free due to the Pretty Plans team taking care of everything that came up.
- Laura and Benjamin Haggith
Charlie and the team at Pretty Plans are amazing!
They made our planning process and wedding day so easy, organized and enjoyable. I had the pleasure of working with Charlie for over the year since Covid-19 impacted our date, and she handled all of our changes and updates like a true professional making sure everything remained organized, on time and on budget. I HIGHLY recommend using their services for your upcoming wedding or event.
- Chantal and Jesse McConney
Planning a wedding wasn't easy, now imagine doing it during a pandemic. My now wife found Pretty Plans on Instagram and I had a friend that used Charlie and her team before and they came highly recommended.
After our first chat with Charlie hiring Pretty Plans was a no brainer for us. Charlie had a way to ensure my wife was comfortable the entire time, after every call we'd both look at each other and say "WOW, I feel so much better about this"
Now since our wedding date had changed multiple times so did our wedding capacity. Charlie, didn't flinch.... She found us the perfect vendors for our outdoor wedding and made the perfect day come to life.
Having Charlie, Emily and Randi present on the day of the wedding was remarkable. Everything ran so smooth from start to finish. I was truly blown away.
Looking back we know we couldn't have done it without them and would recommend ANYONE who is getting married to look know further, Pretty Plans Wedding & Event Coordination are the real deal. You won't find a better team in your corner.
- Nicole and John Volpe
I cannot speak higher of Charlie and our experience with her planning our wedding.
From start to finish she was an absolute pleasure to work with and made our big day stress free!
Planning a wedding during Covid was not easy, but she was always there to calm my nerves/provide me support when I was worried.
I originally thought I could get away with just using my venue coordinator, but I decided to book Charlie for the months/day of leading up to my wedding.
It was honestly the best decision I could have made.
If you are looking for a wedding planner I seriously recommend working with Charlie and Pretty Plans!
- Erin and Matt Topa
Charlie is the absolute best!
I could not have had the wedding I wanted, without her. She was extremely organized, kept us on track, and has a very calming presence.
She is also lovely to be around and made the day so special. I would highly recommend!
- Emily Hamovitch and Josh Corn
We had Charlie be our month-of-coordinator and wouldn't have had it any other way.
She was amazing to work with from beginning to end and was very detail-oriented and organized. I am an organized person myself, so it was reassuring to see the effort put in to planning our day.
We literally wouldn't have had the same successful, amazing day without her and her assistant Emily's help. She solved problems on the day of gracefully and quickly, even without my knowing until after!
On the day, we never had to think about where we had to be or what time it was, she was always there to make sure we were on schedule and that we knew what we were doing next. We could just really enjoy every moment with zero worries.
If we could give her more than 5 stars we would. She and her team are amazing at what they do.
She's professional, graceful, quick, and best of all fun to be around. She also responded to emails at lightning speed and we always felt taken care of.
Hire Charlie and her team for your big day and you will not regret it!!!
- Karen and Samuel Rousseau
Nothing but great things to say about working with Charlie / Pretty Plans Coordination!
My husband and I were a bit out of sorts when it came to planning a wedding, and being a couple that lives in NYC far away from Toronto where we got married, it definitely made us double on edge... but honestly we had nothing to worry about!
People kept telling me that they have never seen a bride so relaxed/ happy at their own wedding and honestly without Charlie it wouldn't have been possible.
She was amazing with my family and she went over and above to make sure that everything was under control and everyone was having a great time.
The 4 months leading up to our wedding when I started to get a little insane, she always managed to keep calm, not make me feel crazy (which was greatly appreciated), and keep things moving forward.
Super professional, super kind-hearted, super hardworking, and a pleasure to share the experience of planning a wedding with!
- Daani Sarma and Kirk Fernandes
Words cannot begin to describe how happy and thankful we are for you to have joined our important day (aka the BEST day of our lives!).
We can't stop reminiscing on how perfect it went, and a lot of that was because of you.
You took care of every single detail, big, small and in between.
Everyone was raving about you, especially how pleasant you are to be around and your calm nature.
Pretty Plans was easily the best wedding decision we made! We will be sure to spread the word to all of our friends!
- Kathleen and Mike Hegarty
We were so happy and grateful to have you on board as our Day-of-Coordinator for our wedding.
As soon as you were brought onto the team, you were much involved - providing your professional advice on areas that we never thought we needed, filling in gaps that we were not aware existed, and initiating and engaging in various discussions to ensure the day-of events were properly planned out.
We loved that you were highly organized and that you always made yourself available for us, which gave us a peace of mind.
The day-of execution was flawless.
We felt very much at ease with your calm presence and that can-do attitude.
Your coordination prior to and during the wedding with our vendors helped ensure things were falling into plan throughout the event.
We couldn't have done it without your help and would definitely recommend you to friends and couples who are looking for a planner or coordinator.
Too bad we can only do this once with you!
- Elva and Dan Lu
It’s impossible to put into the words how incredible you are. The second you stepped into the day I felt a calm I needed on such a whirlwind of emotions.
You kept everything organized, exciting, fun, professional and above all else you ensured it was everything I ever wanted.
You listened carefully to all the details I poured my heart into and they all came to life better than I could have imagined.
Having you be part of our day was one of the best decisions my husband and I made when choosing our vendors.
You took every challenge and idea and you executed it with grace and poise like I’ve never seen before.
Thank you so much for being there for me, and now thank you for being a friend.
- Ellesha and Michael Colavecchia
Best. Decision. Ever.
We loved working with Charlie! After planning our wedding in two short months (talk about stressful)
I thought we had everything organized and considered not hiring a wedding day coordinator or asking a friend. Thankfully, we were in a rush so we just hired a pro.
My husband and I both kept saying that Charlie was THE BEST vendor we hired for our wedding.
She's incredibly organized, will make great suggestions and can calmly handle last minute changes.
We both had the best time at our wedding, drinking, mingling and enjoying the day knowing that behind the scenes, Charlie had it all under control.
We've already recommended her to our engaged friends!
- Anusha and Michael Dawson
Charlie is unreal. She was our day of wedding coordinator and went ABOVE AND BEYOND to make our day so special.
Everything went so smoothly, she set up all of our decor so beautifully and handled everything like a complete professional.
I couldn't have asked for a better person to work with and highly suggest her for anyone looking for a wedding planner / day of coordinator.
Ryan and I thank you so much Charlie, our wedding wouldn't have gone the way it did without you!
- Carly and Ryan McGraw
There simply aren't enough kind words to describe Charlie and Pretty Plans.
From the very first phone call, I knew she and I clicked.
Not once did she say 'no' or 'I can't'. Always advocated for me and my husband and played the buffer role very well with my mother in law. The day of she moved throughout the day with such fluidity. Being everywhere and nowhere all at once. She was right there when we needed her but out of sight when we didn't.
We truly had a magical day and can't thank you enough!
- Tanya and Sheldon Minott
Charlie and her team are the best!!
Everything was stunning and she really brought our dreams to life.
As soon as we started working together, I was confident no detail would be forgotten!
We didn’t have to think about a thing on our big day and it allowed us to really enjoy and savour our wedding. Thank you!!
- Collen and Mark Tonon
Thank god we had Charlie to help us before and on our special day.
We could not have done it without her!
From helping with the vision, the vendor management, the day of itinerary, and so much more; it was a completely stress-free experience.
The entire bridal party commented on how professional and on the ball Charlie was, which made it easy to focus on just enjoying the day.
We cannot recommend Charlie and Pretty Plans enough!!
- Caroline and Donald Chmura
We can’t say enough good things about all the help you provided - you always had everything under control and I literally never once had to worry that something was missing etc. (which is saying a lot for me, I’m definitely an over-thinker!)
We really appreciated how calm, organized and professional you were, you kept the whole group on track without us ever feeling stressed (I don’t know if we were ever behind schedule, but if we were, you figured it out and never let it show).
We will definitely be recommending you in the future!
- Shawna Leclair and Casey Vucko
There is no one else I would’ve rather had there on the day.
You helped make our wedding day everything we could have ever imagined and more! It was a magical evening.
Thank you for absolutely everything.
- Paula and Graham Mitchell
Charlie allowed us to enjoy our day and not worry about a single thing.
The wedding party was always informed of where they had to be, and what they had to do, removing any stress and confusion out of a very busy day.
We're not sure how she does it, but she can truly heard cats.
- Jenna and Patrick Raatz
After my first meeting with Charlie, I knew we chose the right person to help our wedding day run smoothly.
Charlie is professional, personable, reliable, extremely organized and such a great person to work with.
The month leading up to our wedding she reminded me of things I would have otherwise forgot about during the stress of wedding planning.
My husband and I can honestly say we worried about absolutely nothing that day and were able to enjoy our wedding.
If there were any issues, we definitely didn’t know about them...which means
Charlie went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly.
We can’t begin to describe how appreciative and happy we were to have Charlie at our special day. 100% recommend meeting with her if you haven’t already!
- Stephanie and Jeff Mok
We found Pretty Plans through a mutual friend and honestly, hiring her was one of the best wedding decision we ever made!
Leading up the wedding, Charlie and her team took total charge in reaching out vendors, putting together a timeline, making a decor/floral checklist and answering e-mails all the way up to the wedding; things I did not have any time to handle (and didn't even know how!).
On the day of the wedding, she took charge in keeping our timeline on track (HUGE), organizing vendors, ensuring the tables were set up correctly, handing out payments to vendors, among MANY other hings.
Having Pretty Plans on-site on our wedding day was the leading force to keeping myself and my husband calm and simply just having a good time, both not having to worry about anything that was going on behind the scenes.
We don't know what we would've done without you!
- Kate and Jordan Glover
Charlie was one of the best decisions we made in the wedding planning process! She made the last month of wedding planning so easy and enjoyable which allowed us to head into wedding week with nothing but excitement and good vibes.
Not only did she make the planning easy, but her presence on the day of was calming, reassuring and so incredibly friendly. It felt like she had been a part of our lives for years, not days.
We loved working with Charlie and would 100% recommend her for your big day!
- Alexandra and Fraser Gillan
Charlie and the Pretty Plans team were a dream to work with. From planning to the day of, we could not have done it without them. They understood our vision for the wedding and brought it wonderfully to life.
On the day, Charlie kept everything in order (we were ready early - which we're pretty sure is unheard of) and helped us make the most incredible memories.
Charlie, thank you for all of your hard work, amazing style, constant support, organization, and for helping to make our wedding the most incredible day we've ever had!
- Katharine and Jordan Sherman
If you're a Bride (or Groom) looking for the perfect wedding planning service look no further than Pretty Plans.
I was a Bride coming from a public relations and event planning background who thought I could do it all...boy was I wrong.
Hiring Pretty Plans to coordinate my wedding was the best decision that I made.
Charlie is the perfect mix of organized and laid-back, she's the kind of event planner who crosses every “T" and dots every every “I" without being overbearing; never bossy. She has an uncanny ability to make you and your wedding party feel completely at ease.
On the day of our wedding Charlie fit in seamlessly. getting along with friends and family effortlessly, making everyone feel important, comfortable and in the know. Best of all, she had a way of making me, the Bride, feel like I could just kick back relax and enjoy my big day knowing that every little detail was meticulously cared for, organized and would be executed to the highest standards.
- Alexandra and Madison McKimm
