A Classic Celebration

I highly recommend using ACC for any of your event planning! My family has worked with them twice now, both times to help plan and coordinate big birthday parties. Cristina and Charisse are very professional, organized, and to top it off, soooooo nice! There was never any pressure to use their vendors or spend more money for upgrades. We had a budget and they were able to negotiate with the vendors to try and meet our budget. Thanks ACC!

This was not just ‘A Classic Celebration’, this was a super-​classic, super-​celebration! We had the most amazing wedding ever, with a very large number of moving parts: many travelers from out of town, DJ, band, classical musicians for ceremony and after, photographers, videographers, Bailey (!!!), custom hors d’oeuvres, desert bar, custom signs on tables, little name-​stick thingies, and on and on … And this, for more than 200 people.
The danger in something so elaborate is that the whole event becomes one huge lumbering dinosaurian nightmare of complex arrangements and buzzing questions so the wedding itself is submerged. This did not happen. Not one bit.
Every one of those 200 guests felt that they had been taken care of, personally. The Happy Couple remained happy and could enjoy the entire event, with no interruptions. My beautiful wife, who directed so many of the arrangements, had her wishes translated into action with calm efficiency, and from about 2 weeks out, all details were simply handed over to the Classic Celebrationists.
It was beyond perfect. ¹¹⁄₁₀. And *Thank you!!!*

A Classic Celebration will not only plan your wedding, but they will be your wedding therapists also. Planning a wedding is stressful, tedious, and full of decisions. ACC gave us advice so that we could make the many hard and stressful decisions you make when planning a wedding.
During each meeting, Cristina and Charisse had an agenda and took detailed notes of everything Chris and I wanted for our wedding. They were very organized, and had monthly goals for us to complete. Sometimes when we would complete the goals early they would bring over prizes like tacos or waffles to our next meeting!
Anytime we had questions or concerns they called or e-​mailed us that same day. When a problem would arise, they had different solutions or scenarios ready. I’ve heard stories of wedding planners taking over your wedding, or pushing their ‘vision.’ Cristina and Charisse take your ‘vision’ and make it happen. They offered all the choices, and we always made the decision.
By the end of the process, these women felt like family and I hope to use them for more events in the future!

Charisse and Cristina are AWESOME! We feel so lucky to have found A Classic Celebration to help with our wedding. They are calm, reassuring, dedicated and are absolute pros at what they do. Charisse checked in with me weekly if not daily days leading towards the wedding to answer all of my questions and provided candid advice on vendors, planning, and etiquette. She attended our final meeting/​walk through at our wedding venue to make sure that she and the venue knew precisely where we wanted our items to be placed, how the tables would be setup, and when the event timeline would take place.
Charisse and Cristina are logistical geniuses. They created a diagram of our ceremony showing where our guests would sit, our attendants would stand, our gifts would be placed, and the order in which the processional and recessional would take place. Our wedding was segmented into two parts: a traditional Chinese/​Vietnamese tea ceremony followed by a Catholic wedding mass. The diagram ACC designed for us was extremely helpful in maintaining our tight schedule.
Charisse and Cristina also worked with us to create an extremely detailed timeline making sure we had enough time for all the photographs we wanted, to do our first dance, to eat, make all table visitations, make toasts, do the father/​daughter mother/​son dances, cut our cake and eat it too. Thanks to A Classic Celebration all of this was pulled off without a hitch.
I honestly do not know what I would have done without Charisse and Cristina. I enjoyed every moment of my wedding because I knew everything was in good hands. I cannot rave about A Classic Celebration enough. Thanks for making our wedding the best day of our lives.

If I were to sum up A Classic Celebration in one word it would be … AMAZING! My son had his 5^th birthday party with the theme of Where the Wild Things Are, and their creativity and organization was evident in every detail. They listened to my ideas and went above and beyond what I imagined. I am very pleased with their work and highly recommend their services for any event. They were not only organized and creative, but friendly and fun to work with. Thank you, A Classic Celebration, for making my son’s birthday a unique and memorable one. He was thrilled when he saw everything you created and prepared for his party; even the workers helping with the event at our birthday site said, «This is the best party we’ve ever seen! We’ve gotta take pictures of this!»
From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!!! :)

Very experienced event coordinators and reliable power duo. Cristina and Charisse are not just friendly and helpful but also know how to take care of every detail that their clients present to them.
I’ve worked with them on a couple of events and they are always on top of things.

A HUGE thanks to Charisse and Christina for all their help — we were so happy with the way everything went. Several of our guests remarked that Charisse and Christina were so «soothing» and did a great job taking care of everything. Hiring these guys for our wedding was one of the best decisions we made during the wedding planning process!!! Everything looked beautiful and went smoothly thanks to them.
