Composing the unforgettable, one occasion at a time
The Founder
The Most Trusted Eye in the Room
Crystal Chapman knows what most people never say out loud: that some moments come only once, and the difference between forgettable and unforgettable is a person who refuses to lower the bar — at the centerpiece, at the table, at the seam of the day no one else would think to check.
For thirty-five years, that conviction has shaped C&B Elegant Events, where venue, design, coordination, and cuisine answer to a single exacting eye. A great event, in her hands, is composed, never assembled, and clients come to her for exactly that: the certainty that every detail has already been considered.
what we do
The Composition
An excellent event isn’t planned. It’s composed. The way a meal is plated, a room is dressed, or a piece of music is arranged — every C&B occasion is composed from the inside out, with the whole arrangement held to one standard.
Vision
We begin with your story, your references, your instincts, and listen for what you haven't said yet.
Design
We translate that vision into something more refined than it could have been alone — original to you, repeated for no one.
Experience
We carry it through the day itself, where coordination makes elegance feel effortless and you remain fully present for every moment.

Sherry Faniel
Every house is built on a foundation. This one was built on a mother's belief.
Long before there was a venue, before there was a name on a building, before there was anything to see at all, there was a woman who believed in what her daughter could not yet prove.
Sherry Faniel did not need to see the vision to trust it. She saw her daughter, and that was enough.
When doubt crept in, she answered it with faith. When the dream felt too big to reach, she called it not a risk, but an investment — in Crystal, in the gift she had always recognized, in a future she was certain her daughter was walking toward.
She believed it when it was only a hope. She believed it when it was only a beginning.
Sherry is not here to walk these rooms. But she is the reason they exist.
Every standard held, every detail honored, every door opened — it all stands on the faith she gave first.
One house. One standard. One eye on everything.
Excellence across an event is not achieved by hiring more vendors. It’s achieved by reducing the number of hands the standard has to pass through. C&B operates as one creative house — venue, design, planning, and cuisine held to a single taste level — so the standard never drifts as the day unfolds, and no part of your occasion is left to a stranger’s judgment.
