Bel Momento Weddings & Special Events

Deffinitely the company to use when planning a spectacular event! Bel Momento was in charge of planning Chelsea's 18th Birthday & Graduation Party. The event was held at One Atlantic and Dusk Nightclub, both in Caesars Casino. Every detail, large and small, was accounted for thanks to Kristin and her amazing staff. Kristin was on top ...of everything from the very beginning to the end. She listened with understanding, made our dreams a reality, and helped us have the day and night of a lifetime that we will remember forever. She kept everything under control while we were able to enjoy our party... without the stress. Kristin did everything- she knew the best photographer to get, set up meetings, notified us of payment deadlines and things we needed to do, and made sure everything was done the way we wanted it and PERFECTLY. Her ideas and visions were what made the party the night that it was. People will talk about Chelsea's party for a very long time... Again thanks to Kristin, Jeremih, hip hop artist of "Imma Star" performed at the event! Tribeca Grand also performed during the dinner portion of our party, and was fabulous. (Another reccomendation of Bel Momemto!) Chelsea's cupcake tree was delicious thanks to The Bake Works which was also Kristin's idea. There was not even ONE issue the night of our party. All ran smoothly... through our whole event and through our planning. A big event like the one we had is difficult. We needed Bel Momento, and they made it happen for us. We can not thank Kristin enough. Jodi, Angelina, and all of her staff were there for us the entire night as well. This type of party would NEVER have happened without the dedicated planning of Bel Momento.

If you are considering a beach wedding at the Jersey shore, your first item on your list is to hire Bel Momento. After that, you will be set up for success. We worked with Kristin for almost a year and half planning our wedding and had a really great experience. Kristin is really good at taking your vision and ideas and making them a reality. We didn't have to waste time shopping around or negotiating with vendors as Kristin did all of that for us. Every vendor was extremely talented and met our expectations in service as well as price. Then - as we got closer to the big day, Kristin was instrumental in preparing me for all of the little details that I would have missed otherwise (and I am a project manager). Once we got to the wedding weekend and I handed everything over to Kristin, I didn't have to worry about a thing . She and her staff set up everything and made sure it was perfect; this included keeping us on track on such a busy and long day as well as packing everything up and bringing it back to our room. Our wedding was over 3 weeks ago, and people are still talking about it and I imagine they will for some time. I will remember it forever and I can honestly say, that I truly experienced the wedding of my dreams.

When we hired Kristin from Bel Momento to be the wedding planner for my daughter's wedding we weren't exactly sure what to expect. For months before the wedding Kristin was at my daughter's beck and call helping with organizing, working with vendors, making selections and so much more. But the best was having her and Jody with us from rehearsal to the last dance of the reception. They were so helpful and took care of every detail so the bride and groom and my husband and I did nothing but relax and enjoy themselves. Everyone commented that they never saw such a relaxed bride. I know that one reason for that was Kristin and Jody. I would HIGHLY recommend Bel Momento. Thank you ladies!!!!

AMAZING!!! Kristin & Jody were a HUGE help & I could not have imagined getting through the wedding planning process & especially the wedding day itself without their help.

Kristin and her team were a dream to work with. They listened to all of my ideas and were able to make certain suggestions that made our day unforgettable. I used their "Day Of" wedding planner which meant that 6 weeks before our wedding Kristin was on hand to help with cooridinate all of our vendors and to ensure that all of our special details that we had worked so hard on where in place on our day. Having them around on our wedding day allowed me to relax and truely enjoy the entire day!

Bel Momento and Kristin were amazing! We would have been so lost without her services. She made sure everything was prefect! They were also amazing to work with and so helpful every step of the way! Thank you Bel Momento!

One of the most important events in our lives was executed absolutely flawlessly and was spectacular thanks to our wonderful wedding planner Kristin. A day we'll truely never forget. I am recommending Kristin to all my friends and family and will defintely use her services in the future~ apparently she does other special events too!!!!

I hired Kristen to plan my ceremony since it was on the beach in Cape May. I also needed help finding a vendor for my wedding cake, chairs, and feather flags. Kristen was just extreamly helpful in everything. Checking in with me throught the planning making sure that I'm on track with what I need to do. On the day of, Kristen was able to make me, the bride feel totally relaxed!!! I knew that I had nothing to worry about, that the chairs would be set up in the exact spot that I wanted, the feather flags will be perfectly placed and that all my other vendors were in place. Our ceremony went SEAMLESS!!!!!!!! There were NO issues at all, everything went completly as planned!! Kristen and her assistant were amazing and I have all the thanks in the world to give them for making the ceremony go EXACTLY AS PLANNED!!!Thank You So Very Much!!

I booked Bel Momento for the last month of my wedding planning. Kristen was incredibly helpful with all of the last minute details and was readily accessible for whatever questions I had. She listened to my ideas and helped make them happen without being pushy or in the way. She took everything out of my hands before the wedding, so my husband and I were able to completely enjoy our wedding day without any interruptions or problems! Everything turned out exactly as we had hoped. It was well worth the money to hire Bel Momento for our wedding planning.

We hired Kristin Barse of Bel Momento Wedding & Special Events Planning for the Final Day Planning Package and it definitely made our wedding day absolutely stress-free. The entire day ran so smoothly and without any problems at all. Friends commented to us during the wedding and for weeks after the wedding, that they had never been to such a well-organized, smooth-flowing wedding. For all of our guests, this was their first beach wedding and all of them commented on it being flawless, relaxed, and absolutely breath-taking. John and I attribute this to Kristin and her assistants for orchestrating the timeline perfectly and in conjunction with all vendors, working diligently to make sure everything was set up properly, and all items were transported to correct locations efficiently and on time. So many friends warned me as former brides, it would not be a very relaxing day and I would need to step back at one point in the day with my husband and take it all in for one frozen moment. However, this is not what happened for us at all. I can truly say with 100% conviction, I was at peace the entire day and I was able to take every single moment in and enjoy it all. I remember every minute of the wedding and reception clearly and vividly. My best friends even commented that they had never seen me so relaxed, confident and “living in the moment” than on my wedding day. I tell them all that I believe it was due to the fact that I had a Wedding Planner for the day of my wedding and so I thank Bel Momento and Kristin Barse for creating a day that far exceeded our expectations. I thank them for taking such care in executing my wishes that I never had to worry for one second from the moment I woke up on my wedding day through to the final dance at our reception.

I had met Kristin Barse with Bel Momento during a bridal show at Cape May's Congress Hall early in the planning before having set a date. She would email me from time to time to see how things were going and my husband and I finally reached a point where we knew that we needed help. It got to be too much with us being in DC and the wedding in Ocean City and our busy work schedules. We hired her and we're so glad that we did! We had run into a huge problem... we couldn't find a Roman Catholic priest to marry us. Because we belong to a parish in DC (the priest couldn't travel to OC for our wedding) and we weren't marrying in my hometown but instead at the Jersey Shore (the priest there wouldn't marry us because we weren't parishioners), we couldn't seem to find a priest. Kristin found a priest for us in just one day! Followed by finding us other vendors (ie. transportation, florist, etc.), arranging appointments for me with hair/makeup trials, and the list goes on. On the day of the wedding, she and the two wonderful ladies working with her were like having guardian angels watching over us - this is no exaggeration! Every time we turned around, they were there to help or take care of something we needed or answer any question for us - in addition of course to everything we weren't seeing that was going on behind the scenes. Besides a small veil emergency in the morning (we had forgotten it), we were calm as could be because we had these three ladies taking care of every detail for us. They were amazing. Kristin had even arranged for us to be able to take our wedding photos on some of the boardwalk rides! Our bridal party loved this! At first we weren't sure whether we should spend some of our budget on having a coordinator... now, I can't believe we ever doubted this! Kristin is amazing and we would have been so frantic the day of if it hadn't been for her and her team!

Friendly, courteous and able to get the job done!

Kristin was AMAZING! She worked with me on the last month before my wedding along with our wedding day. I am extremely detail oriented and she took on the challenge like a champ!! I didn't have to worry about anything leading up to our wedding and especially the day of. There were a few concerns with outside vendors and I didn't even know. Everything was perfect! Our bridal party and family enjoyed the day without having to do anything but enjoy! Thanks Kristin!! I would recommend you to ANYONE!!! Love ya, M&M

Kristen was great! She began working with us about a month before the wedding. Our wedding was on the beach so a lot of preparation had to be done at the location on the morning / day of the wedding. It was great that Kristen was there to ensure everything was ready to go when we showed up! She did a great job and was always available when we needed to meet with her.

We booked Bel Momento at the last minute and they were extremely helpful. They were also flexible and helped gear the wedding to our wants.
