About Evermore Occasions

Evermore Occasions

Bespoke Event Planner Serving the DMV

Like many in the industry, I fell in love with planning weddings when I started planning my own in 2017. At the time, I was a corporate lawyer at a big firm in DC and it just hit me: I was totally in the wrong field! Since then, I have dedicated all of my free time to arranging my own events, helping my friends plan their own, and dreaming of the day that I could provide the same service for others.

My approach is simple: hear, help, and handle. I am here for YOU, to make sure you are getting all you want and need on your momentous day, with as little stress as possible. Your event is unlike anyone else’s, and you will never be just another client to me. Let’s chat about how I can help you commit to the love of your life in style.

  • The absolute best

    Carmen is an absolute gem. She is super organized, very thoughtful and has incredible taste. She was very open to what we wanted and never tried to impose her opinions on us, but also turned our half-baked ideas into pure magic. Our wedding was beautiful and such a blast, and everything went so smoothly for us - from our very first planning call to the last song on the dance floor (and even beyond). Her team was also totally on it and was always kind, respectful and great at communicating. Recommend her a thousand times over.

    Booking Carmen at Evermore Occasions is the BEST decision we made!! Carmen was literally our lifeline through the entire wedding process. Not only is she professional and DANG good at what she does, she is kind, genuine, and easy to work with. She handled stressful details with grace and ease and was there for us every step of the way. Carmen goes above and beyond and our day could not have been the absolute perfection it was without her!!!

    We had an exceptional experience with Evermore Occasions for our wedding in August 2024, and I can’t recommend highly enough. Carmen’s expertise was evident from the beginning as they worked with us to expertly managed every detail. Through their AislePlanner app, we meticulously discussed and documented everything from inspiration photos and checklists to guest lists, seating charts, budgeting, and timelines. Carmen and her team were incredibly organized and kept us aligned with every decision. Their attention to detail was impeccable, covering everything from communicating with wedding VIPs to organizing the ceremony setup, reception seating, favors, place settings, and ensuring compliance with venue regulations. They even handled the napkin folds and breakdown with precision. On the wedding day, Carmen and her team guided us seamlessly through the timeline, which had the perfect amount of buffer to accommodate any unexpected changes. We were kept informed about any issues—like one guest feeling unwell—only as needed, allowing us to truly enjoy our day. The positive feedback from our guests about the event’s flawless orchestration was overwhelming. The day after the wedding, we were amazed to find that everything had been packed up and returned without any extra venue charges. This smooth transition is a testament to Carmen and her team's dedication and efficiency. Their patience and support throughout the planning process turned what could have been a stressful experience into a joy. I wholeheartedly recommend Evermore Occasions to anyone looking for top-notch wedding planning services.

    Carmen and her team made wedding planning easy and enjoyable. From the beginning, Carmen worked with us to develop an aesthetic that was elegant and personal to us. If we had a specific vision for something, she showed us how to execute that vision within our budget. If we weren’t sure what we wanted, Carmen presented us with different design options to help us figure out what we liked. She had great ideas, and we trusted her judgment completely. In choosing vendors, Carmen presented us with various options within our budget and gave thoughtful notes and recommendations. If we wanted to consider vendors outside our planned budget, Carmen was always ready to discuss additional options as well as ways to offset additional costs if we decided to spend more in one category. We trusted Carmen’s recommendations completely, and she never led us astray. Once we chose vendors, Carmen made sure our contracts addressed all of our needs and helped us understand industry standards and expectations. As we got closer to the wedding, Carmen took full responsibility for communications with vendors and even fielded questions from our family and wedding party in the lead up to the big day. This was a lifesaver and allowed us to focus on the important things. On the wedding day, Carmen and her team ensured everything ran perfectly. Someone from Carmen’s team was always nearby if I needed something--but I didn’t because it was all so well planned! Between the ceremony and reception, Carmen’s team set aside two of every appetizer along with two of our signature cocktails to ensure we got to try everything. When we arrived at the reception, everything looked beautiful. The set up and take down happened so seamlessly we weren’t even aware of it, and anything we were taking home was packed up and placed in our bridal suite waiting for us at the end of the night. It really was our perfect wedding. My husband and I, along our families, will always be grateful to Evermore Occasions for giving us the celebration of our dreams!
