Why are we named Cora?
We chose the name Cora for several meaningful reasons, all rooted in the beauty of the sacrament of marriage. Cora is derived from the word for “heart,” coming from the Spanish corazón and the Latin cor. This reflects our devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, who stands at the center of every marriage. He is the steady presence who unites two hearts as one, guiding them in love, grace, and lifelong commitment. We hope to stand alongside you throughout this time of preparation, while aiding you in getting ready for this next adventure. At Cora Weddings, every celebration begins at the heart—where faith, love, and beauty meet.
About Me!
Maria Breeze
Founder & Head Wedding Planner
Hello, friend—my name is Maria Breeze. I’m an Arizona native with a deep love for hospitality and a heart for unforgettable celebrations. My passion for weddings began at sixteen while helping plan my sister’s wedding, and over the past seven years, I’ve had the joy of supporting couples in bringing their vision to life.
What first drew me in still inspires me today: watching months of thoughtful planning come together into a day filled with joy, laughter, and heartfelt moments. Whether I’m stepping in close to the wedding day or guiding couples through the entire journey, there is nothing more rewarding than seeing them fully present and at peace as they celebrate such a sacred milestone surrounded by those they love.
At Cora Weddings and Events, we bring warm, intentional hospitality and joyful care to every celebration. My goal is to make your wedding feel effortless, deeply personal, and beautifully true to you. I would be honored to walk alongside you and help create a day filled with unforgettable moments.
