Christopher
Christopher Confero, deemed by The Knot founder Carley Roney as the “talk of the south,” is a genius at transforming spaces and designing editorial experiences. Christopher is the ultimate combination of perfectionist and competent friend. He has become one of the most sought-after event planners for his graceful customer service and impeccable style. Christopher was also named best wedding planner in Atlanta by Jezebel Magazine and one of the top 30 designers in the country by PartySlate.
His event portfolio represents each client’s respective style amplified with his creative vision. “Never are two parties alike,” says Confero. “There is no recipe for every event, but there are certain finishes that define a Confero production.” His perspective on parties is cultivated through experiences building his own business for over a decade, collaborating with clients and artists around the world, and saving time for his own twirls on the dancefloor.
His most recent endeavor as the new Publisher and Editor-in-Chief of the magazine, Alabama Weddings, brings into focus his panache for telling love stories with a strong visual perspective, just as he does for all his events. With an editorial approach to design, Christopher crafts narratives for his clients’ most cherished moments in life - all with a touch of magic.
