Planning your wedding shouldn’t feel like a second job.

We’ve built a process that’s actually fun—one that builds excitement as the months go on and leads to a wedding day that feels effortless, intentional, and very you.

Every couple’s details look different, but the experience stays the same: easy communication, real trust, and a planning journey that feels more like teamwork than stress.

Let's Connect
01.
The Discovery Call.
We start with a low-pressure conversation to talk vision, priorities, and vibes. No hard sells—just seeing if we’re the right fit for each other.
02.
The Game Plan.
Once you’re booked, we map out a clear plan tailored to your wedding. Think timelines, next steps, and support where you need it most—so nothing feels overwhelming.
03.
The Planning Phase.
This is where ideas come together. We guide decisions, manage details, and keep things moving while you stay focused on the fun parts (yes, those still exist).
04.
Final Prep Mode.
As the big day gets closer, we lock everything in—timelines, logistics, vendor coordination—so there’s no chaos, only calm.
05.
Wedding Day, Handled.
You show up, soak it all in, and get married. We handle the rest behind the scenes to make sure the day flows smoothly from start to finish.
About Us

In 2007, Carisa Lockery (then Carisa Ruocco) started CR Socials where she helped couples across Connecticut and the Northeast enjoy the wedding day they spent so much time and energy planning. Carisa’s mission, then and now, is to give couples the opportunity to feel like pampered guests at their own wedding. When the details are handled well, a couple can truly appreciate the special moments of this unforgettable occasion.

Now known as Pink Olive Events, Carisa and her team work every day to reduce the stress of wedding planning for the busy, sophisticated couple who doesn’t want to look back at photo albums with only blurry memories of a fun night.
