“Words cannot express how grateful we are for everything you helped us with over the last year as we planned our wedding. From that first meeting with Cathy in London, to our countless calls, texts, emails, visits and occasional meltdowns with Jessica to an AMAZING wedding on Saturday…. we are speechless and thankful beyond words. Our guests simply will not stop raving about the wedding. We’ve been told by countless people, on all sides of family and friend groups, that our wedding was one of the best they’ve attended and that it sets a high bar. For Daniel and me, it was EXACTLY what we imagined and hoped for. I honestly do not know how it could have gone better.”

“WONDERFUL team! COJ is a warm and and fabulous team to hire for your wedding planning. They truly brought their A game when helping us plan a wedding in the middle of pandemic, and always kept such a great attitude. We worked with Cathy & Angela and they spent SO much time and energy and care to make sure we made our day happen. They were so patient when I would get stuck on making a decision! I love them both personally and appreciate the time they gave to us and our family through the whole process! We couldn't have done it without them.”

“Weddings are notoriously “stressful” for brides & filled with lots of pressure but I can say my whole planning process was so smooth, light hearted & fun and that’s a huge thanks to you guys. You knew the right vendors to work with, always had a “YES, can do” attitude & would make any of my dreams (aka Pinterest pictures) a reality. Thank you so much for everything & I truly feel like you guys became friends through the whole planning process.”

“We cannot thank Cathy & Angela enough for all of the hours and hours and hours of planning and organizing for our absolutely Magical Day. We worked together so well for this day during the months ahead, it was such a wonderful experience. We had no idea just how many moving parts and work went into the actual week of and weekend of the actual wedding. We LOVED our Wedding, we cannot stop looking at our photos and our families are still getting messages from our guests saying it was absolutely stunning and beautiful and so well planned and organized. Cathy and Angela, we will miss our time communicating, really enjoyed our emailing and telephone conferences — you are really THE BEST EVER when it comes to planning an event!! All of your guidance, suggestions and work on our special day are so much appreciated!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!”

“Words can’t even describe how grateful we are to the two of you for everything you did to make our “wedding festival” even better than we ever could have imagined. From your fantastic suggestions on flowers, linens, DJ, photographer, caterers and more, to your attention to the most minute of details. Our vision was no small task and you both handled everything with grace, charm, professionalism and, dare we say, spunk. And you made it fun – but most importantly, it was a weekend that we will cherish and remember forever. And for that we thank you. Thank you both – and we can’t wait to spend time with you both without a seating chart!”

“Cathy and her team are fantastic. Our wedding was everything we dreamed of and more. The team went above and beyond in every way. At every venue/floral/decor meeting… even photography/videographer phone calls, Cathy & Angela were present. I have been asked what advice I would give to a new bride and my first advice is to get a good planner. The time leading up to a wedding is extremely busy & stressful, leave the organization and execution of your wedding vision to a skilled team.”

“John and I cannot begin to thank both of you enough for planning and executing the wedding of my dreams!!! When we walked out of the house to be announced, I looked out at the reception and said to John that this was how “I envisioned it” when the both of you first showed me Sand Acre last summer! You’re a spectacular team and every single vendor that you recommended was outstanding! From the bottom of our hearts, thank you, thank you, thank you!”

“Cathy and Dorry are the ultimate dream team. They are not only the best wedding planners and event coordinators but on top of that they are the most amazing people my husband and I have ever met. They are extremely professional and very organized and bring great ideas to the table but also take your ideas and make them happen.”

“We wanted to just let you know how incredibly amazing our wedding day was and how thankful we are to you and your team for everything you did for us. It was such a pleasure working with you throughout the past year and you really made our day so beyond our dreams, it was a total fairytale. We had so many compliments on absolutely everything especially the ceremony and how great a job you did. Thank you for doing that for us as it was so special to have someone who knows us perform our ceremony and make it so personal.”

“Our wedding was the most incredible and special day of our lives, and I know how big of a role Cathy and Dorry played in making that happen for us. They both have the most wonderful energy about them — they are lovely, calming, and most of all patient. I think patience is an understatement when referring to them… it is a whole other level when it comes to all that goes into planning a wedding and how much tender loving care they put into each and every one of their clients.”
