Exquisite Affairs Productions Inc.

I can only say positive things about EAP! Christine was an absolute DREAM to work with! I planned my wedding in New York from Australia and from day 1 she was so hands on and knew exactly how to handle every situation we came across. It took us 9 months find a church and she was so patient and understanding throughout it all. We never spoke once over the phone, everything was via email which made it so easy, even with the time difference. Christine is so profressional and sweet and really becomes your friend. She knows eaxctly how to make the planning process so much easier. My husband and I had the best day which was everything and more than what we could ever have imagined and it's all due to Christine and he fabulous team. For anyone look for an incredible wedding planner, you can't go past Christine at EAP!

Christine is AMAZING! That is the only thing I can say. She is worth every penny AND reasonably priced. She is insanely organized, has great contacts, and in general, is just a great person to have around on your wedding day to calm you down and put you at ease. I would recommend her in a second.

I used Exquisite Affairs as my wedding coordinators and they also did all of my decor. They were great-- super responsive and open to listening to my ideas. I only met with Tara once and then communicated with Tara and Christine over email/phone (which was what I preferred) and I couldn't have been more pleased with the final result on the day of my wedding. Tara and Christine did an amazing job on the decor! All of our guests are still talking about how beautiful it was. We had wanted an Indian mandap for our ceremony and they were even able to pull that off perfectly even though I'm sure it's not something they do on a regular basis! Wedding coordinators should make planning stress free and Tara and Christine did that for me. I was totally at ease on my wedding day and leading up to it because I knew that they were in control. I also used Laurie to make programs and table numbers and she was great as well and much more reasonably priced than a lot of other companies that I looked at.

Tara was my day of planner. She was perfect - super nice, professional, reliable, quick to respond to any crazy conerns I had and did her job on the day of perfectly. Price point is unbeatable in Manhattan. I did not hire a day of planner until about two months out, but I was glad I did. Even if you are super organized and have planned everything (which I was), hiring Tara just for piece of mind on the day of your wedding, is money very well spent in my opinion.

If could give more stars I would!!! Christine and EAP made our wedding day more wonderful than I ever thought possible and were there every step of the way... From venue scouting, to florists, invites, photography, dj and every little thing in between. And to top it all off, my wedding dress was horribly stained after taking pictures outside and before I could even get upset, Christine and her highly skilled team had the stains out just in time for the ceremony!! I highly recommend their services for any bride to be!!

I don't think my wedding would have ever ran so smooth if it weren't for EAP. Christine Viola paired me up with wedding planner, Annie Fonseca, and I couldn't be happier. From the moment Annie and I met, she made me feel secure and assured me that she would be with me every step of the way. She never left my side. She was always very responsive to my emails, phone calls and even my texts. She even attended vendor meetings with me. My father passed away 11 years ago, and my biggest fear was that I was not going to make it through the day due to my emotions. Up until the wedding, Annie comforted me and gave me advice on how to deal with the situation at hand. I couldn't have asked for more! She truly went above and beyond to make it all possible for me, my husband and my family! I also worked very closely with Laurie, who creates different kinds of stationary at EAP. She also went above and beyond to make sure I was happy with the end product. She produced my save the dates, table numbers, seating charts, favor tags and menus. Everything was beautifully coordinated and produced in excellent timing. Thank you Annie, Laurie & Christine for making it all possible for me & my husband!

I hired Tara to provide partial wedding planning services as I needed help selecting/managing vendors, managing/allocating my budget, and coordinating the big day. Tara was great. She has an amazing book of vendors. For example, before hiring her, I had already met with 5 photographers and was driving myself nuts. After I hired her, we met with one photographer who met all of my criteria and the pricing for photo and video was less than what I was getting for photo on my own. Tara also recommended my DJ, limo and shuttle van service. She was very good at keeping me in line when I wanted things that were clearly out of my budget. I am an impulse buyer and therefore having her there as my voice of reason was important for keeping me in budget. Tara was also great at the rehearsal and the day of the wedding. Her timeline was spot on, my hair stylist also said that its the best timeline he has seen. Tara was also great in dealing it my not-so-great florist. Tara recommeded her florist but I decided to go with the florist recommended by the venue, a decision that I now regret. After the wedding, Tara followed-up with the florist to ensure that I would get my money back and I did. I was so thankful to have her handle that situation while I was honeymooning. Highly...

We worked with Christine at EAP and from start to finish, she never failed to impress with her knowledge, responsiveness, care and attention to detail. Her organizational skills were remarkable and because of her services, I felt confident the entire week of the wedding that every last detail was under control. She is supremely knowledgeable about all venues and vendors in NYC and extrordinarily accessible and quick to respond! I am so thankful to have worked with Christine for my wedding!!

I hired EAP to coordinate the day of my wedding... best decision i made!!! I worked with Christine who was so extremely helpful the day of! She took care of everything for me, which made me so worry-free the day of the wedding! I could not have been happier with the services she provided to me and just the overall feeling that day of knowing everything was in good hands! I would HIGHLY recommend EAP to every bride out there! They will make your day go so smoothly so you get to enjoy every single minute of it!

What can I say but that I agree 100% with all the rave reviews? Christine was the ideal day-of coordinator in every respect: totally organized, helpful, cheerful, and calm, both during the planning process and on the day of the wedding. The little suggestions she made along the way saved us tons of money, and she was always available by email to answer my dumb questions about details. I shudder to think what we would have done without her--and this is coming from someone who didn't get the point of day-of coordinators until we met Christine. If I have one regret about my wedding, it's that we didn't hire Christine and her team to manage the ENTIRE process. Doing so would have saved us so much money and stress!

Christine was truly amazing--she thought of things I never would have planned for (and I consider myself a very careful person!). She was on top of everything, from contracts to budgets to dates. I can't imagine what my wedding would have been like without her. The best thing is that Christine is warm and open-minded, so even though she's doing all the boring nitty-gritty stuff (e.g. negotiating with vendors), you still end up with your own vision for the wedding.

Words cannot express how grateful my husband and I are for having Christine and her team be a part of our wedding. I always felt so lucky when I heard friends and colleagues go on and on about how stressful wedding planning was, as the entire process of planning our wedding was managed effortlessly by Exquisite Affairs. We actually got to enjoy and have fun with it all, and never had a concern or worry, as Christine and her team were on top of every detail from start to finish. The best part was that Christine became a friend, and someone who we could truly trust and share in our joy with, which is more than my husband and I ever expected from a wedding planner. Thank you tons to our incredible team at EAP - makes us want to have another wedding!

Christine Viola and Exquisite Affairs Productions were wonderful to work with! I am so glad we decided to move forward with a wedding planner. The day was perfect and seamless. Christine is an infectious presence to have around and ALWAYS entertained every minute detailed question we had thrown her way. Not only did we always look forward to meeting her, but we would often stray off of the subject of the wedding since she had become such a welcome, comforting friend in addition to a wedding planner. Christine's excellent taste in choice is reflected in her staff. We partnered with Exquisite Affairs to create our invitations/wedding stationery and Laurie Coreas did an amazing job. I was afraid I wouldn't be able to communicate my vision with elegance (since it involved robots) but they turned out exactly as I would have wanted them and we received a ton of compliments on the unique way we presented ourselves. Christine's experience is reflected in her encyclopedic knowledge of wedding venues and vendors. She was able to pinpoint our tastes and style very quickly on and keep us onbudget! The only complaint I can voice is that my husband and I cannot get married multiple times in a year and use her services on a daily basis!

Christine is the absolute best!!!!! She went above and beyond the call of duty! I used her for day of event but she met with my fiancé and I on numerous occasions and even joined us on an appointment with a vendor. She would answer my calls, texts and emails immediately. I was relaxed and at ease the day of my wedding knowing she had it under control!! Highly recommended!

I hired Christine for my 7/30/11 wedding as a "day of" coordinator and I could not have been happier. On first communication, she was nothing but kind, honest, and helpful. Leading up to my big day she helped wrangle in my vendors and provided a comprehensive itinerary that made it impossible for anyone in our bridal party to have any questions. On the actual day of she was key in band aid placing, stain removing, tip and payment distributing and making sure we stayed on track with time. I couldn't have been happier and was well worth it.

Christine was WONDERFUL to work with! She helped our day run so smoothly. I didn't have to worry about a thing knowing that Christine was in charge. We would've been lost without her! My family and friends are still commenting on how great she was! Thank you so much!

My wedding planning was really rough. We had so many unexpected bumps in the road, including a glitch with our wedding venue where we had to change venues two months before our wedding date, and Annie and Christine and Tara at EAP were with us every step of the way to make sure that everything was perfectly smooth the day of the wedding. As far as EAP being a value, I would say it was easily one of the wisest things we spent our money on. They gave us a checklist a few weeks before the wedding, which made us realize exactly what loose ends we needed to tie up and what we needed to address - things we never would have thought of, which was a huge help. And the day of the wedding, they made sure everything was executed flawlessly - I'm pretty hands on, and it's not like they made themselves invisible, which I appreciated, they just knew where everyone was and had everything scheduled perfectly so I wasn't worried about any of that. And I need to give a TON of credit to Laurie, their in-house designer who made our invitations at literally half the cost of most of the other vendors I looked at (including print-your-own and Etsy vendors). She would respond to all my emails within 24 hours (all the ladies would, actually) and we had gorgeous invitations, which had to be reprinted as a result of our venue change, and which Laurie redesigned in a day. We also used their recommendation for our wedding photographer, Yun Gen Yang, and he was amazing. So not only are we so grateful for the help they gave us the day-of, but they gave us two excellent vendor suggestions that we were thrilled with.

EAP and Christine was exactly what we needed to help us with the demands of planning a wedding. We've gotten a lot of positive feedback from our guests and have already referred other brides to her. Great job!

Christine and EAP is FABULOUS!!!! They are a great resource for planning, and they take all your worries away the day of....letting you truly enjoy your wedding day!! I would recommend Christine five million times over!!

Christine is AMAZING! The best decision I made when planning my wedding was to call EAP. The whole wedding planning process was so easy and the day of the wedding I did not have to worry about one thing because Christine and her wonderful staff were there to coordinate everything. I highly recommend her services. She really is the best!
