“Melissa was awesome! I was the mother of the groom. I traveled in from Tennessee, had only communicated over the phone and shared text messages and pictures for inspiration of how I wanted my hair and makeup with her. She arrived at my Airbnb the day of the wedding and literally worked her magic. She was calm and personable. I was ready on time and felt beautiful all night. I couldn’t have asked for a better makeup artist. And for it to be someone on such an important day that I had never met in person, it was truly spectacular.”

“Henderson Acres is truly beyond anything we could’ve hoped for with our wedding venue. First their actual outdoor space and house is so beautiful it is straight out of a magazine- picture perfect. The decor and stone within the house is such an elevated look we were in awe of. They are constantly adding things to the space and not to add things you need to pay for but to offer plenty of things for you to enjoy to use during your day. For instance there was several items of decor we used from them that we decided day of to use and the flexibility of that is incredible. They have a reasonably priced furniture package that their venue staff helps set up on wedding day and they have a retractable tent in case of inclement weather. Next the staff is absolutely incredible. Seriously beyond kind, helpful, responsive, and authentically caring. Planning the wedding was a dream with them, and the staff the day of was beyond kind and helpful ensuring the day ran smoothly. An example, we had one guest who was in a wheelchair and had to have an uber come to the venue for pick up/drop off - the staff without being asked drove to the bottom of the driveway waited for the uber and personally escorted them to the top. That kind of hospitality was noticed by our guests who raved about their kindness. I could write about so many more amazing things this venue has to offer. We received countless (truly countless) compliments on this venue and the venue staff - from the beauty of the space to the kindness and authentic care everyone felt. Our photographer captured the day perfectly with such beauty and somehow you’re still amazed seeing the space in person. I think there is something special about a family owned business and this venue is a prime example of it! Without a doubt the best decision we made in our wedding planning was booking Henderson Acres after so much searching - couldn’t recommend more!!!!”

“Our original wedding planner failed us when we needed them most, and what should have been one of the happiest times of our lives quickly became overwhelming and stressful. Golden Forest Events stepped in and immediately brought organization, professionalism, and a sense of calm to a situation that felt like it was falling apart. They helped take control of the details, communicated with the people involved, worked through problems behind the scenes, and made sure our wedding could still move forward. Instead of allowing us to spend our wedding day worrying about everything that had gone wrong, they focused on solutions and allowed us to focus on actually getting married and enjoying the day. What stood out most was their willingness to step into a difficult situation that they did not create and still treat our wedding as though it had been theirs to manage from the beginning. They were professional, responsive, compassionate, and incredibly resourceful. There are so many things that could have gone differently without their involvement. We will always be grateful that Golden Forest Events was there when we needed help the most. If you are looking for a wedding planning team that can not only create a beautiful event but also remain composed, organized, and solutions-focused when unexpected situations arise, I highly recommend Golden Forest Events. They did not simply help with our wedding they helped save it.”

“This place is pure magic. It’s not just a stunning wedding venue, it’s a gorgeous weekend getaway in the mountains with 20 of your loved ones. A few weeks later and we’re still swooning over our wedding at Laurel Falls! We got married at the end of September and it was absolutely beautiful. We loved being able to spend Thursday-Sunday on site with our closest people, which gave us the chance to really slow the weekend down and savor every moment. We’re an out-of-town couple but we fell in love with Laurel Falls immediately when we saw it online. Kristen, the events director, and Jordan, the owner, were incredibly kind and helpful throughout the entire process. Jordan gave us a virtual tour of the venue and shared the site’s special history with us throughout. When we were in town, he also took the time to give us an in-person tour! Kristen is ON IT — she quickly responds to emails, helps navigate any challenges, and is just an all-around rockstar. The love and care the LF team has put into the property is obvious — from the Helene renovations to the thoughtfully stocked accommodations to the prompt communication — they are a dream to work with! We cannot recommend this venue enough!! We’re already planning our 10-year anniversary celebration here!”

From the initial communication, the team was quick, kind, and efficient in addressing all of my questions and needs. The quality of their work was truly professional and they made both myself and the mother of the groom feel relaxed and beautiful. After having another vendor cancel on us last minute, Jeanne was a lifesaver and matched us with McKayla, who was an angel to work with. McKayla was on time, communicative, and paid close attention to detail while also being efficient with her time.

“By the luck of the draw, Nathan was available for our very quickly planned wedding--we snagged the last date he had in June 2024. I was ecstatic because I had always admired his work. My now husband and I had a blast working with him, we never thought taking photos/videos would be one of the highlights of our big day but it really was. The whole family loved working with Nathan, too. He was laid back but nothing short of a true professional--he was somehow everywhere, capturing everything yet never in the way. He went with the flow with funny family eccentricities that popped up and made everyone feel comfortable. Our photos and video got back to us in shockingly record time and we can't choose favorites because we love them all. Multiple people we've shared photos have said, "that looks straight out of Vogue or a magazine."

“Choosing the right photographer is a big deal—truly one of the decisions that can make or break your entire experience. We met Nathan at the very beginning of our journey, during our engagement shoot at the Biltmore Estate. We were both nervous, awkward, and completely unsure of what to expect. Then Nathan arrived, and everything changed. Within minutes he had us laughing, relaxed, and genuinely enjoying ourselves. That was the moment we knew he wasn’t just talented—he was special. So when it came time to choose someone to capture our wedding in Sedona, we took a chance and asked if he would fly out. Honestly, we thought it was a long shot… but he immediately said yes. And thank goodness he did. I will never forget the moment he walked into the room on my wedding day. I had just started feeling that wave of nerves while finishing my hair, and the instant Nathan stepped in, I felt completely at ease. How does he do that? He has this quiet magic about him—an ability to ground you, hype you up, and disappear into the background all at once. His passion is infectious. His eye for intimate, meaningful moments is unreal. And somehow, while capturing every single one of those moments, he manages to remain practically invisible. When we received our gallery, we both laughed, cried, and sat there in awe. It felt like reliving the day, but through the lens of someone who truly understood us. To put it simply: Nathan is gifted. Exceptionally, unmistakably gifted. We even showed our engagement photos to another top-tier photographer, and her reaction was: “Book him immediately. His editing is some of the most incredible work I’ve seen—I want to talk to him myself!” If you're reading reviews trying to decide who to trust with your memories, stop here. You’ve found the one. Nathan exceeded every expectation we had—and then ten more we didn’t even know we should have. He is the best of the best.”

“Carolina Flowers provided the flowers for our wedding, but the experience was not as smooth as we had hoped. Their online communication style was quite tough, and the quality of their work felt a bit improvised. While the flowers were beautiful, they did not fully listen to our requests - we asked for white and blue flowers, but ended up with pink and purple flowers included in our bouquet and decor. Overall, the flowers were a disappointment and did not fully capture the look we were going for on our special day.”

They took the time to understand our ceremony schedule and play the special requests at their specific times--offering us a spiritual experience and gift that will remain in our hearts forever and brought special power, sublimity and endurance to the ceremony and vows.

“Homewood was the perfect venue for our small, intimate wedding ceremony. From the moment we first contacted them, the wedding coordinator was so friendly, attentive, and went above and beyond to make our day special. The venue itself was breathtaking - the elegant, vintage decor and stunning natural surroundings created a truly fairytale setting. Everything was exactly as we had imagined and more. We couldn't have asked for a better place to celebrate our special day.”
