"...Seriously. And that's saying a lot because we didn't make it easy: we had 22 bridesmaids and 13 groomsmen — so basically a third of the wedding was walking down the aisle - and Christina navigated every moment of our 150 person wedding with absolute tact and grace.
From the initial planning stages to the final moments of our special day, Christina was the epitome of professional calm. Her ability to manage the complexities of our large wedding party, coordinate the flow of events, and keep everyone on schedule was nothing short of ridiculously incredible. She was omnipresent, and at the same time unobtrusive - basically a guiding force ensuring that each piece of the puzzle fit perfectly into place.
As a former Hinge executive who met her husband on Hinge, I wanted my wedding to reflect our unique story - and also share in the joy with a lot of other Hinge employees in attendance - and she delivered in spades! Her organizational skills were matched only by her personal touch. Christina truly took the time to understand us as a couple, which reflected in the personalized nuances of our wedding. She was our constant emotional support, always ready with a solution for every concern, big or small. The peace of mind she provided allowed us to remain focused on the joy of our day, rather than getting tangled up with planning and execution.
Christina wasn’t just a wedding planner; she was the guardian of our wedding's success - and not just our wedding, the rehearsal dinner too and all the of the events of the weekend. She even helped our large contingency of international guests navigate visas and customs.
Our wedding was literally perfect, and our memories are filled with nothing but laughter, love, and the magic she helped create. For any couple looking for a wedding planner, go for VISTAH Planning - we cannot recommend enough!!!"

"Christina and the VISTAH team were the glue that held my entire wedding day together. From biweekly check-ins leading up to the wedding, helping us stay focused and organized, to re-working rain plans, and even going above and beyond to help my mom steam my dress - they did it all with grace and ease. I was able to live in my wedding bubble of bliss and enjoy every minute of my day which is all I ever wanted. Would recommend this team a million times over!"

"Working with Christina Thavis brought me peace of mind on my big day. As an event planner myself, it was hard for me to not want full control over my wedding day, but after a while it became clear I wasn't going to enjoy myself without bringing in a Day of Coordinator.
Christina handled my day with so much care! We had meetings leading up to the date where she asked all the right questions, shared excellent suggestions and worked closely with my siblings (who were my wedding party) so that I didn't have to problem solve on my wedding day. Everything went according to the timelines we had put in place - Christina managed all of my vendors, oversaw that catering/dinner service was running on time, coordinated speeches, dances, cake cutting, etc - and all went smoothly.
Christina was a joy to work with and I would highly recommend it if you want to feel at ease on your day. Akeem and I couldn't be more grateful for you, Christina!"
