Hi, I’m Bre. I’m so glad you’re here. Before anything else, I’m a wife and a mom—those are the two most important roles in my life. My background is in hospitality and operations, where I learned the value of organization, communication, and staying calm under pressure. Those experiences led me to wedding coordination. My goal is simple: to handle the details so you can be fully present and enjoy your wedding day. I believe your wedding should be remembered for the moments, not the logistics, and I’d be honored to be part of your day.

From start to finish, Planned by Bre made our wedding planning experience stress-free and enjoyable. Bre went out of her way to help us with every detail, answering questions quickly and offering solutions we hadn't even thought of. She handled so much behind the scenes that I was able to relax and actually enjoy the process. Her work went above and beyond what we expected. The day itself ran smoothly because Bre had thought through every possibility. We would absolutely recommend her to any couple looking for a planner who truly cares about making their day special.

Delaney and her team helped make our wedding dreams come true! I seriously love this woman, and you will too. From our very first call, to some exciting design meetings, to many many emails, ending in our perfect day full of magic, we were truly in the best hands. She and her team will help you uncover your vision, and send you to people they trust to help make it real. The sooner you book, the easier your wedding planning will be! They have vetted some amazing vendors, and won't suggest ones to you that aren't the vibe/budget/etc that you are going for. You don't have to guess, or consult with multiple wrong choices just trying to narrow down your options! And when hiccups inevitably arise, they are in your corner and fighting as hard as is necessary. Between 2 hurricanes and venues not having power, the stress was real leading up to our day. Delaney helped me navigate all of it confidently, and handled everything I couldn't. The wedding itself was so beautiful, full of love and such fun energy from my vendors (that she helped me find!), and no stress or worries about logistics because I had the greatest planner in the area. I had the wedding of my dreams, and I couldn't have done it without Wilder Mind Events. Photo of couple is courtesy of M.A.D. Images, Inc.

Hiring Coastal Coordinating was easily the best decision my daughter made for her wedding. Starting 30 days out, Alli took over as the primary contact for all vendors, kept us perfectly on track, and provided a meticulous timeline. Tia joined us for the rehearsal brunch, expertly guiding us through the processional and ensuring everyone knew exactly what to expect. My daughter had a 'Wedding Day binder' filled with her inspiration, contacts, and seating charts, and Alli used it to bring that vision to life—the venue looked exactly like the photos. Having them as our day-of coordinators allowed us to truly enjoy every moment, knowing every detail was handled, from the morning setup to the final pack-up at the end of the night. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for giving my daughter a truly worry-free day and the wedding of her dreams.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jenn’s team at Janova Events is unparalleled. Hiring them to help plan and coordinate our wedding was easily the best decision we made during the entire process. Her advice and guidance was invaluable, but where they really shine is the wedding day itself. We did not have to lift a finger. From setting up/take down, to communicating with the numerous vendors, to ensuring everything went smoothly…the list goes on. All my husband and I had to do was be totally present with our guests and enjoy our day! Some very special touches were when I saw her coming towards me during photos with an entire platter of food…I’ve never been so happy to see a crab cake in my life! And my champagne never was empty. Jenn even gave me the clip out of her hair when I was dancing so I didn’t have to miss a second of the party! Jenn also called our hotel to ensure we made it back safely after the “after-party”, HOURS after we left the venue. Those details are what sets them apart from other planners I’ve seen friends hire- Jenn knew what I needed/wanted before it ever crossed my mind, and ensured it happened with the utmost excellence. Janova Events is worth their weight in GOLD. They went above and beyond, and I recommend them whole-heartedly for every engaged couple!

As a planning duo, we step in to handle the details, timeline, vendors, rehearsal, personal décor, and wedding-day flow so you and your family are not the ones running around behind the scenes.

Awarded Best of Zola
I truly cannot thank Courtney & Kim enough for executing my PERFECT wedding day! I HIGHLY recommend them for any planning and coordination services!!! When they say Perfectly Paired, they mean it -- they are an awesome team that creates the perfect experience. For context, I booked them for day-of coordination for my April 11th wedding in Ybor City. From our initial consultation call, I already knew they were incredible industry experts in this field; they're extremely professional, great communicators, and confident in their knowledge base. They knew all the right questions to ask and details to confirm. I had planned most of the wedding details/logistics by that time, but I loved having their expertise to confirm that everything was a good plan and would seem to work well logistically. I really needed assistance with executing plans, personal items, and decor placement, which were within their scope. I DIY'd a lot of my decor, but in order to fully enjoy the day, my family needed help and guidance on that front to get everything placed. They truly went above and beyond. The day before, they did a great job of ensuring our rehearsal went smoothly and that the ceremony would look the way I had envisioned. On wedding day, they literally came to our house to pick up & drive our U-Haul of decor to the venue - then, unloaded it and placed all of our decor, while also still perfectly managing vendors and our bridal party. Everything on our timeline went perfectly. They did an incredible job of managing our large bridal party and family members to ensure everyone was where they needed to be at the right time. They even made sure we had drinks from the bar once we arrived at cocktail hour. They reminded us when to go have our private dinner so we wouldn't miss our chance to eat and have that moment alone together. To make our sunset pictures at the right time, they helped us move a couple of things around, and that went flawlessly. I'm sure several things went wrong that day, but I wouldn't know because everything was taken care of. They're just superheroes, to be honest. My husband and I truly were able to have the BEST day of our lives and we owe it all to them!

Hi there! I was born into the wedding world—my journey started in my childhood kitchen alongside my incredible mother, who did it all: florals, catering, and wedding cakes. I grew up with a front-row seat to the magic of weddings. Over the years, I’ve worked nearly every role in the wedding industry, gaining hands-on experience from the ground up. Today, I’m living my dream, planning and coordinating over 100 weddings every year and helping couples bring their visions to life. From rustic barn weddings to dreamy destination “I dos,” I specialize in full-service planning, coordination, and event rentals that create unforgettable experiences.

Angie was absolutely the best wedding planner we could have hoped for! She covered every detail and made my son and new daughter-in-law's wedding a truly magical event! She was so easy to work with and covered every detail, working seamlessly with our vendors and providing several of her own who were outstanding! Even as the skies opened and the rain poured down 2 hours before our outdoor ceremony, she remained calm and already had a backup plan ready to go. She even texted photos to me of our mother-son dance for Mother's Day the following week . That's the kind of person she is! I would highly recommend Angie and 42 Lights to anyone planning their special day! Thank you, Angie, for helping to make this day so special!!

Working with Short and Sweet Events was an absolute game changer for our BEN Workshop! This event blends business networking and educational content, and Adrian understood exactly what we needed from the very beginning. She helped us secure a perfect hotel venue, handled the event setup and breakdown with ease, and made the entire process feel seamless. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and calm, confident presence truly impressed our entire team. We were blown away by how everything came together it exceeded our expectations. We can’t wait to partner with Short and Sweet Events again! — Alexis, The Law Firm of Douglas G. Jackson
