Cortes Weddings & Events

Cortes Weddings & Events Christian based wedding & event planner serving Baldwin and surrounding counties. Over 10 years of experience.

I started my business in 2012 as a freelance photographer. I quickly learned that I wanted more so in 2015, I began the process of becoming an event planner. I specialize in weddings but can handle all types of events. I graduated from Coastal Alabama Community College in 2018 with my associates degree in Event Planning/Hospitality. I strive to make visions come alive even if they are thought to be impossible.

With the wedding industry being so saturated with planners and coordinators, word of mouth is the best form of marketing. Since rebranding and reintroducing myself just 4 months ago, you all have come through for me. Whether it was a simple review or a recommendation, it has helped me tremendously.

My calendar is starting to fill up and that is all because of your love and support. I am beyond blessed that I get to be in this profession and help couples plan their special day.

Let's chat! If I'm not the perfect fit for you, I'll gladly point you to someone who is.

More than a planner...Your Wedding Advocate

The wedding industry is full of planners and coordinators. So why me you might ask? Because I’m not here to just make sure your candles are lit and your chairs are straight. I’m here to carry your vision like it’s my own.

I don’t just create timelines — I create breathing room so you can soak in every smile, every tear, every moment you’ll never get back. I’m not just present on your wedding day — I’m your voice when you can’t speak up, your calm when things feel overwhelming, and your problem-solver when life decides to throw a curveball.

With over 10 years of experience, I’ve handled every “what if” so my couples didn't have to. My heart is in every detail — because this isn’t just a job to me, it’s a calling. Your wedding is more than an event; it’s the start of a new chapter, and I consider it a privilege to make sure it begins beautifully and stress-free.

💍 If you’re looking for someone who plans with skill but serves with heart — let’s chat. Your dream day deserves more than just “coordinated.” It deserves to be cherished.

🌿 Meet Your Wedding Planner – Carrie Cortes 🌿

Hi friends! I’m Carrie, the heart behind Cortes Weddings & Events. For over 10 years, I’ve been blessed to walk alongside couples as they step into one of the most sacred and beautiful days of their lives – their wedding day.

For me, wedding planning is not just a job – it’s my ministry and my passion. I believe marriage is a gift from God, and every wedding is a reflection of His love and faithfulness. My heart is to serve each couple with excellence, prayer, and joy, ensuring their special day not only runs smoothly, but honors the One who brought them together.

From our very first meeting to the final “I do,” I’m committed to making the process peaceful and full of purpose, so you can focus on what truly matters – the covenant you’re making before God and your loved ones.

As you may notice, my socials have been fairly empty the last 4 years as I have been working for another reputable wedding company. In those 4 years, I had the opportunity to work with over 100 couples to make their weddings truly magical. God has blessed me immensely and I am once again, branching out on my own and I would love the chance to work with you.

💍 If you’re ready to plan a day filled with beauty, joy, and God’s presence, I’d be honored to walk this journey with you.

Blessings and Peace,
Carrie Cortes
