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.
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.
