Kind words

from our clients

  • Charlene is my go-to for events. She goes above and beyond for her clients and is keen on details. She planned two birthday parties for me and brought my vision to life perfectly. We connected on the mood board, and she took it and ran with it. Her work far exceeded my expectations. So happy I worked with her. 

    Taylor A., Birthday Party

  • Words itself cannot describe the type of work you do. You were perfect from beginning to end. 

    Sharelle F.

  • We hired Charlene for our wedding, and she did a fantastic job. Very easy-going and responsive, the event was designed exactly how we wanted. I recommend Charlene for any occasion and would use her again.   

    Wendell J., Full Wedding Coordination

  • We loved everything. The decorations were exactly what we wanted. Charlene was so helpful with providing ideas. Our event would not have been the same without her. Pictures don’t do justice to how fantastic everything was. We did not have to think about anything, she took care of every smallest detail. 

    Aleksandra B., Wedding & Event Decor

  • One word to sum things up: TRUST. Trust C2Detail to get what you want done for one of the most memorable days of your life. Tell Charlene what you want, and she will run with it and get it done better! And isn’t that what everyone needs when planning a wedding? Thank you so much!!!
