Creating Joyful Moments | Event Planning & Design - Indianapolis, Indiana

Chloe was fantastic as our day of coordinator! She started meeting with us about 3 months out, but was available for any and all questions from the moment we hired her. Day of, her team was excellent! Everything went so smoothly and it is largely due to her team and the effort she puts into your day of timeline and working with all of the vendors. I cannot say enough about Chloe and her team - but the best part about hiring her is that SHE is awesome! It was important to me that our wedding planner around us day of was full of joy and had a great personality/energy. She was exactly that!!! My only regret with her? That we didn’t choose a bigger package to be able to work with her for even longer. We loved Chloe and she is right choice for your wedding planner needs!

Chloe was the very first decision we made in the wedding planning process, even before choosing a venue! After seeing her immaculate coordination and professionalism (not to mention that pristine timeline) at a close family member's wedding, we knew immediately that we needed Chloe and the CJM team for ours.

Chloe was always available to talk through any questions we had or bounce ideas off on. She provided a sense of calm throughout stressful planning moments and made sure that every detail would be taken care of, which it was. The entire wedding day was absolute PERFECTION! It was THE BEST day!

What stands out is how genuine Chloe and her team are. They took the time to truly prioritize us as a couple (& our families) on wedding day, allowing us to take a breath and soak in every moment.

Chloe and CJM is by far the best decision you will make. We not only had the best wedding coordinator, but also gained a great friend!

CJM made wedding planning so much easier! Chloe started working with me about a year out from our wedding. She made everything smooth and had all of the right questions at the right time. As we approached the wedding date she worked with all of the vendor so the day would come together perfectly. CJM was one of the best decisions I made wedding planning and would recommend Chloe to everyone!

If you are looking for a planner or coordinator at any capacity I HIGHLY recommend Creating Joyful Moments. My husband and I worked with Chloe as our month of coordinator and she went above and beyond what we could have asked for (or known to ask for!!) She eliminated the stress of planning a big event and made me feel at ease knowing every detail was accounted for and everything was going to fall into place on the wedding day.

As far as Chloe's service on our wedding day, we could not have been more pleased. She made sure everything was set up exactly how we wanted, made sure everything was happening on time, and checked in with us as the night went on. Her day of schedule was extremely helpful and in fact, kept our wedding day 30 minutes ahead of schedule.

Chloe is a joy to work with, she is extremely kind, organized, and professional.

We are so grateful to Courtney and her team for everything they did for us leading up to our wedding and on the wedding day itself. I quite literally could not have done it without her! From day one Courtney was responsive and attentive to all of my questions and concerns. She helped us through a few trying months with our food/drink vendor at the Eiteljorg and advocated for us at every turn. She is professional, prompt, responsive, and incredibly knowledgeable when it comes to the Indianapolis wedding industry. She went above and beyond what we could have asked for in a wedding planner. All of her recommendations were sound from the beginning and I am so glad she was there to help us through it all. Do yourself a favor and hire her as your wedding planner - you won't regret it!

Future Brides and Grooms: If you read one review as you start the wedding planning process, LET IT BE THIS ONE.

Before I got married, I used to think brides who said their wedding was the “best day of their lives” were full of it. I mean, even if it was an amazing day, don’t weddings always mean at least a little stress and craziness?

Now that I’m married, I still think a lot of brides are full of it. However, when it comes to me and my husband, our wedding day was without a doubt THE BEST day of our lives by a long shot - and that is all because of Chloe and her team at Creating Joyful Moments (CJM).

After we got engaged, we knew we wanted a full service wedding planner. We met with several great planners in the Indy area with great reviews - but from the first 2 minutes of our meeting with Chloe it was clear that she was the obvious choice. I vividly remember (almost 2 years ago from writing this review) her genuine passion and excitement for us and for our wedding. Her energy was palpable.

If you are on the fence about a wedding planner…HIRE THE PLANNER. This will be the one time in your life that all of your favorite people will be in one place to celebrate you and your partner. It is absolutely worth it to have an expert plan and execute such a momentous event.

But why Chloe? Why CJM?

Chloe and her team take the time to get to know you. By wedding day, I’m pretty sure Chloe knew me better than I knew myself! She was able to take my broad ideas and turn them into something far beyond what I could have imagined. For example, my idea of ‘I want a colorful wedding’ became color blocked tables that had an ombre effect throughout the reception space and JAW DROPPING hanging florals above the dance floor.

Chloe and her team are TRUE professionals. Here is just one of many examples: it rained the day of our wedding. It was cloudy, but dry, all day up until about 30 minutes before I was going to walk down the aisle. The aisle that was outside.

Now, I am relaying this story as it has been told to me from guests and family members, because, on our wedding day, my husband and I were calmly ‘waiting out a little bit of rain’ in a private room. Our arriving guests were escorted into an indoor space to stay out of the rain. The ceremony musicians wouldn’t play in the rain, so as they were packing up their things, Chloe was getting our DJ (who was originally only supposed to be at our reception) set up at our ceremony space so that we would still be able to have music at the ceremony. To this day I truly do not understand how Chloe and her team did it, but at 4:30 PM on the dot, I was standing at the end of the aisle with my dad; music playing, chairs dry, guests in their seats, a gentle mist falling. And as guests rose and my dad and I started to walk, the rain stopped.

Thanks to Chloe and her team, we can say it (and mean it): our wedding day was a dream come true. The best day of our lives. Chloe and her team were our sunshine on our rainy wedding day.

Working with Chloe and her team was hands down the best decision we made when planning our wedding.

We met Chloe at the Indy Bridal Expo. I hadn't even considered hiring someone as a day-of coordinator, even though our venue required it - we figured we could have a family member or friend take care of the day-of coordination (oh, how naïve we were). I was immediately drawn to her (like I literally started walking toward her before I even knew what her company did). She asked us questions about our wedding plans and I knew instantly that I wanted to work with her.

Chloe & her team only did our day-of coordination, but if I could do it all over again I would have her plan the whole wedding. Our consultation and follow-up meetings were so efficient and thorough - Chloe had questions ready for us about details we hadn't realized needed sorting out. The posts she made on social media about us and the other behind-the-scenes perks (like sending us cookies) made us feel so special. Throughout the whole process, we didn't feel like just another client to her - we truly felt like our wedding was her number one priority.

Our rehearsal day was incredibly hot, but Chloe didn't break a sweat. She kept everyone on task, made sure everyone was where they needed to be, and kept the rehearsal short so people weren't miserable. She gave everyone copies of very detailed, color-coded itineraries for our wedding day and had everything planned down to the minute.

Our Wedding Day was absolutely flawless, aside from the hot, hot temperatures... although, I truly believe if I had asked Chloe would have found a way to change the weather. I've heard horror stories about various things on wedding days going terribly wrong - if anything went wrong at our wedding, I was and still am completely oblivious because Chloe and her team had everything handled. I always knew where I needed to be, knew what was going on, and had a drink in my hand (water or otherwise). CJM handled all of my other vendors to the point where I didn't have to speak to a single one of them except to thank them for being there. I didn't have to give one direction or answer a single question about anything the entire day which was so, so nice looking back on it. I could go on forever about CJM and I hope everyone planning a wedding in Indy gets a chance to work with Chloe and her team.

If you want an easy, stress-free wedding day with a team of professional wedding planners and coordinators who will make you feel like absolute royalty - hire CJM. It will be the best investment you make to ensure your wedding day is everything you ever dreamed of.
