    We planned a destination wedding, and Carlina made the entire process so easy and enjoyable! She was amazing to work with — organized, communicative, and always a step ahead. On the day of the wedding, I didn’t have to worry about anything because Carlina had it all handled. She made sure everyone was on time, everything ran smoothly, and the day was absolutely perfect. I can’t recommend her enough!

    Carlina is truly a gem! From the very beginning, she was organized, calm, and incredibly detail-oriented exactly what every couple needs during the wedding planning process. She thought of things I never would’ve considered and made sure every small detail was handled perfectly. Her communication was always clear and timely, and she went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly on the big day. I didn’t have to worry about a single thing she handled vendors, timelines, décor, and even the unexpected hiccups with so much grace and professionalism. You can tell she genuinely cares about her clients and takes pride in her work. Because of her, our wedding day was seamless, beautiful, and completely stress-free. I can’t recommend Carlina enough —if you want your dream wedding brought to life, she’s the one to make it happen!

    ️️️️️ I cannot say enough amazing things about Tear Drop Events! From the very beginning, Carlina made me feel completely heard and supported. She was incredibly organized, detail-oriented, and helped bring my exact vision to life. Her communication was always clear and reassuring, and she truly advocated for me every step of the way. On the wedding day, she and her assistant were total pros, walkie-talkies in their ears, making sure everything ran perfectly and exactly how I had envisioned. She anticipated needs before I even had to ask and gave me the best advice when I needed it most. Thanks to her, I was able to relax and fully enjoy my day knowing everything was taken care of. If you’re looking for someone professional, passionate, and genuinely invested in making your day flawless, I can’t recommend Carlina enough!

    I’ve had the pleasure of working alongside Carlina and I can’t recommend her enough!! She has incredible attention to detail, communication, and the ability to keep everything sunning smoothly. Which makes a HUGE difference for the couple AND the vendor team. As a wedding photographer, I love when I get to collaborate with planners who create such a calm, organized, and joyful environment. Carlina truly cares about her couples and it shows in every part of the day.
