Crystal

Girl Boss

Well, since they say you never get a second chance to make a first impression. Here goes!

meet you!

Born and raised in the small southern town of Harrisburg, NC, I've always had a niche for noticing details and have a great passion for making things "sizzle." Because of my unique ability to manage details succinctly while adding my own "pop of contrast," I knew early on I had a great passion for planning, organization, and design.

After a 16-year stint in Corporate America, I put experience and creativity to the test and thus followed my passion into the events industry.  Was I scared, HELL YEAH! But I also knew that inaction breeds fear and if anyone was in charge of my making my own dreams come true, it was me- THIS GIRL, RIGHT HERE!   So, eight years later, here I am! Living life without regrets and driving a passion and mission to create moments that people will remember for a lifetime.

So that was the somewhat professional part of me. You probably want the good stuff, huh. Well, here you go….

It's nice to

The Fab Created Team

we do the most
the right way!

Crystal and team at Fabulously Created events are 5-star professionals. From the planning process to the big day, you can count on them to think of everything, including the tiny details a bride may forget. Fabulously Created Events executed my vision for my wedding flawlessly and go above and beyond the call of duty.

Crystal and her team were the best decision that we made in the entire wedding planning process. Early on, we made the decision to change the ceremony and reception venues and Crystal made that change for us seamlessly. With her full planning package, we were able to email, call, text, etc. with our concerns and she would talk us through our options, and it made the whole wedding planning process much easier and much less stressful.

Crystal went above and beyond our expectations for helping us plan our wedding. She helped transform the concept of my wedding by coming up with unique ideas that made our day stand out, like hiring a New Orleans-style wedding second line, because our honeymoon was going to be in New Orleans.

I honestly do not know where to begin. Crystal and her team are AMAZING. Since our first meeting I knew Crystal meant business. She breaks the process of wedding planning down with you and is by your side every step of the way.

Crystal and her team were beyond amazing. Throughout the wedding planning process, she calmed our nerves and helped us plan an amazing wedding step by step. The wedding day went absolutely perfectly, as she handled every detail for us, made sure we were taken care of and that everything went smoothly throughout the day. Our guests kept commenting on how amazing her staff was and how wonderfully the whole night was run. She really seemed to care that we were having a great time as well and asked us frequently what she could do to make it even better. I can’t thank Crystal and her team enough for making our special day perfect!
