We help creative and adventurous couples plan an unforgettable wedding through intentional and meticulous planning. Knot Too Shabby Events is a Wilmington, North Carolina-based wedding planning & design team curating priceless moments with the ones you cherish most!

Where do I even begin?! Hiring Melissa and the Knot Too Shabby Team as our wedding planner was hands down one of the best decisions we made throughout our entire wedding planning process. We got married in April 2026, and I truly cannot imagine our wedding day without them! From the very beginning, Melissa made us feel supported, organized, and completely at ease. Planning a wedding can (and will!) feel overwhelming, but she somehow made the entire process enjoyable. She thought of every little detail, answered every question we had, and always made us feel like we were her top priority! On our wedding day, we were able to be fully present because I knew Melissa had everything under control. Every vendor was exactly where they needed to be, the timeline ran seamlessly, and if anything unexpected happened, I never knew about it because she handled everything behind the scenes. That peace of mind is something you simply can't put a price on. Beyond being an incredible planner, Melissa is such a kind and genuine person. She truly cares about her couples and pours her heart into making sure your wedding day is everything you've dreamed of and more. Looking back on our wedding, everything felt effortless - and that's because Melissa worked tirelessly to make it that way. We were able to soak in every moment with our family and friends without worrying about a single thing, and that is a gift we'll always be grateful for. If you're considering hiring Melissa, PLEASE PLEASE don't hesitate. We are forever thankful for everything she did to make our wedding absolutely perfect, and we truly couldn't recommend her more highly. Thank you, Melissa, for giving us the most incredible day and memories we'll cherish for the rest of our lives!

I say it that way because I also have a production management company where I have over 10 years of experience planning high level, corporate and nonprofit events. I bring that vast knowledge of professional detail and complicated logistical needs to create seamless wedding experiences that my couples will always look back on. My goal is to make your special day as calm, coordinated, and completely ‘you’ as possible. Let’s connect 🤍

We cannot say enough wonderful things about our wedding planner, Chris, and the incredible job she did for our daughter’s wedding in Charleston. Our daughter's wedding ceremony and reception were in 2 locations (a church and a venue) and Chris managed both beautifully! From start to finish, her professionalism was unmatched—she was organized, detail-oriented, and handled every aspect of the planning process with confidence and grace. Her communication was excellent throughout. She was always responsive, clear, and proactive, which gave us such peace of mind during what could have been a stressful time. We always felt informed and supported every step of the way. She truly went above and beyond what I expected! Most importantly, the quality of her work was truly exceptional. She brought our daughter’s vision to life beautifully, managing every detail seamlessly so that the entire weekend felt effortless and special. Everything ran smoothly, and we were able to fully enjoy the celebration without worry. We are beyond grateful for her dedication and talent, and we wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for an outstanding wedding planner. When the time comes for my sons to marry, I will be recommending Chris to their fiances. It was so hard to let go of what I called a "fast and fun friendship"! - Mother of the Bride

Our wedding day would not have been possible without MME. We knew from the start that Monika would make sure every part of our day was exactly what we envisioned. Through monthly phone calls and meetings, Monika helped us discover the details about us as a couple that we could incorporate into our day to make it unique to us. Monika was always available when we ran into problems or started feeling the stress that comes along with wedding planning. She always made sure we had "clear hearts and minds." We are so grateful for all the work and intention MME put into our day - from the initial planning all the way to our last dance of the night. It would not have ran as smoothly without Monika and her team at the helm. There are no people better suited for planning events than this team, and we will forever be grateful to them for making our wedding day the best day of our lives so far!

I have received over 1,000 images/videos in content, and still have even more coming! What’s crazy is half the time, we didn’t notice Katelyn there, but she still somehow captured every moment! I love that she wasn’t in our faces or constantly bothering us for photos/videos. This way, we were able to enjoy every aspect of our day! Katelyn truly embodied what being “behind the scenes” means! She was also always there when someone did want to ask for a photo, and always obliged, even when my mom was constantly asking her LOL. We got our raw footage back within 48 hours, and most of it after less than 24 hours. We are so grateful for Katelyn capturing all of our special moments!

  • Offers 7 services
  • Starts at $500
  • Serves Carolina Beach, NC

House of Elleon is a luxury white-glove wedding and event planning & design studio founded by Noelle Cappuzzo, specializing in refined, editorial celebrations with an emotional core. Each event is a carefully curated experience where the client’s vision is executed with precision, elevated through thoughtful design, and brought to life with seamless flow. With a focus on enhancing the overall experience—not just the aesthetic—Noelle blends creative direction with logistical mastery so every moment feels effortless, intentional, and distinctly personal. Events are expertly produced, emotionally resonant, and elevated from start to finish.

I genuinely do not even know where to begin when it comes to Noelle because there are not enough words to explain how incredible she is. From the VERY beginning of my wedding planning process over a year ago, she handled absolutely everything and more. Any thought, question, idea, concern, crash out, or micromanaging moment I had (and trust me… there were MANY), I could text or call her at literally any time, and she was always there. Not once did she ever make me feel annoying, dramatic, or “too much.” Instead, she made me feel heard, understood, supported, and excited every single step of the way. What makes Noelle so special is that she doesn’t just “plan weddings.” She genuinely takes your vision and transforms it into something bigger and more beautiful than you could have even imagined for yourself. The ideas I had in my head for my wedding somehow came to life TIMES TEN. Every tiny detail was perfected. She thought of things before I even had to ask. She guided me through every decision while still making me feel like the wedding truly reflected me and my husband. And the professionalism? Insane. The organization? Insane. The patience? Saint level. She worked with my budget and constantly gave me options to still achieve the luxury, elegant look I wanted without making me feel pressured to spend beyond my means. She found almost all of my vendors, and every single one of them was phenomenal. The amount of compliments I still receive from guests weeks and months later about how beautiful, organized, and seamless my wedding was honestly speaks for itself. But what REALLY blew me away was wedding day itself. When I tell you I did not have a single worry in the world, I mean it. Noelle and her team handled EVERYTHING. She was genuinely a rockstar from beginning to end. At one point she literally did my late night McDonald’s run herself while her assistants stayed behind making sure me, my bridal party, and my family had everything we needed. Who does that?! That level of care is so rare. She treated my wedding like it was just as important to her as it was to me. Not only did she become my wedding planner, but over this past year she truly became someone so special to me and my family. My family and friends could not stop complimenting her professionalism, kindness, work ethic, and calming presence. I literally had my mom’s friends texting me asking for her information because they were so blown away by her. Noelle made wedding planning FUN. She made it exciting instead of stressful. Honestly, she makes me want to plan another wedding tomorrow just to work with her again. I’m truly going to miss our hours-long meetings spent perfecting every little detail because it all paid off in the most unbelievable way. I can confidently say my wedding would NOT have been what it was without her. She gave me the wedding of my dreams and more, and I will forever be grateful that I trusted her to guide me through one of the biggest moments of my life. I truly believe one day I’ll see her planning celebrity weddings because her talent is genuinely on that level. Thank you for everything, Noelle. I would choose you over and over and over again.

We are a boutique wedding planning company based in North Carolina and serving The East Coast and The Bahamas.

Our approach is refined, intentional, and deeply personal. We quietly orchestrate every detail behind the scenes, allowing you to be fully present and enjoy your celebration as it naturally unfolds.

I’ve had the pleasure of working alongside Amy Haywood and White Rose Co. on several events over the past couple years, and every wedding we’ve worked together has been executed at an exceptionally high level. Amy is the perfect combination of professionalism and personality. She is incredibly organized, detail-oriented, and dedicated to ensuring every aspect of the event reflects her clients’ vision. At the same time, she is genuinely fun to work with, which creates a positive atmosphere for both clients and vendors alike. One of the things that stands out most about Amy is her ability to coordinate seamlessly with all vendors while keeping the client’s wishes at the center of everything she does. Her communication, leadership, and attention to detail make event days run smoothly and efficiently, even when managing complex timelines and logistics. It’s also clear that I’m not the only one who enjoys working with her. Watching her interact with other vendors, wedding guests, and clients, it’s easy to see the respect and appreciation she has earned from everyone around her. I sincerely hope we continue to build our business relationship and work together on many more events in the years ahead. Amy consistently delivers excellence, and I would highly recommend her and White Rose Co. to anyone looking for a wedding planner who combines professionalism, expertise, and a wonderful personality. - DJ Mikey of Mixology DJ Entertainment

Our perfected planning process means your wedding day requires just one thing from you: showing up. Why 3 months? This is when experienced planning prevents last-minute chaos, and you can hand off the stress right when timelines, vendors, and logistics matter most.

Where do I even begin?? Savannah made my day absolutely beautiful, seamless, stress free and organized! The very idea of planning a wedding in 7 months was enough to overwhelm me and she kept me on track with what needed to be done and when. I wouldn’t have been able to do it without her! Our Hilton Head wedding was truly the best day ever and that is in big part because of her. My mother in law loved her so much she asked me if Savannah would be willing to travel to Texas for my sister in laws wedding when that happens.

With over 5 years of experience and 110+ weddings planned (and counting), I'm passionate about bringing each couple's vision to life. Whether you're dreaming of an intimate celebration or a large-scale event, I provide personalized planning and coordination to ensure your wedding day is seamless, stress-free, and uniquely yours. Let's create a wedding day you'll remember for a lifetime.

From our first conversation with Elise at Petal & Pearl LLC, we knew we had found our planner. She was responsive, assured in every decision, and genuinely invested in making our day special. When one of our bridesmaids spilled coffee on her dress just hours before the ceremony, Elise solved it in 30 minutes without skipping a beat—that's when we realized we had made the right choice. Our entire bridal party couldn't stop raving about how seamlessly she handled every detail, and the day unfolded without a single hiccup. The venue even told us it was one of the best weddings they'd seen in their 13 years of hosting events. What really impressed us was that Elise delivered this level of service at a price that felt fair and transparent. We can't recommend her enough to couples looking for a planner who truly cares.

Paris truly transformed my wedding into an unforgettable experience. From the very beginning, she was an invaluable partner, guiding me through every step of the process with ease and grace. Her vision and creativity brought my dream wedding to life, creating a serene and beautiful atmosphere that exceeded my expectations. One of the most significant blessings was Paris’s ability to ensure that both of my divorced parents felt equally involved in the celebration. This was a daunting task, but she handled it with such care and understanding that it became a seamless part of the day. Paris’s expertise extended beyond the ceremony. She skillfully negotiated contracts, ensuring that our elegant vision remained within our budget. Her attention to detail and commitment to excellence were evident in every aspect of the planning. On the wedding day, everything ran flawlessly, allowing me to fully immerse myself in the joy and love of the moment. Paris’s professionalism and dedication were truly remarkable, and I am forever grateful for her exceptional service. Her passion and positivity were infectious, and her unwavering support made my wedding day truly perfect. I owe my dream wedding to Paris, and I highly recommend her to anyone planning a special event. Whether it’s a wedding or any other occasion, Paris will help you create a day that is nothing short of perfection.

My name is Makenzie, a North Carolina native and UNC–Chapel Hill graduate with a love for creativity, organization, and meaningful moments. When I’m not researching vendors, breaking down budgets, or perfecting timelines, you can usually find me hiking, crafting, or spending time with my mini-me’s. Wedding planning felt like a natural calling once I realized I could combine my love for celebrations with my knack for lists, spreadsheets, and problem-solving. I approach each couple like a trusted friend, creating a calm, supportive planning experience so you can truly enjoy your engagement and wedding day.

We had an amazing experience with Carolina Event Masters. We had Kenzie as our coordinator as well as two amazing assistants. We had a 7-month engagement and got married December 20, 2025 for a wedding in Henderson, NC with about 100 people in attendance. We found CEM through a NC brides Facebook page when we posted looking for day-of coordinators. CEM had several options for what level of support we needed and we went with the middle option - it comprised, in brief, day-of coordination and running the rehearsal, assistance finding a few vendors, and several planning meetings. The level of service we received was what I'd expect from a planner more than a coordinator. CEM wasn't there to show up the day-of and motion to the piano to start playing. They coordinated in advance every moment of the day to make sure it went smoothly and was exactly what we wanted. Not only did they get the contact info of all the vendors for emergencies, but they confirmed every policy and communicated with them in advance to make sure they knew what to expect. They toured the church and reception venue to make sure they were familiar with the spaces. Not only did they helped with what we asked about, but they asked questions to help us avoid making last-minute decisions or missing things that were important to us that we hadn't thought about. For ex., they asked about what we wanted to happen with the flowers after the reception. They also gave us advice based on their experience. For ex., recommending we list the table assignments by last name. The rehearsal was very professional and pleasant - they were very prompt and made sure to go through everything thoroughly. The day of the wedding they split up between church/reception venue. EVERYTHING was either on-time or early all day. They went above and beyond to help set up the reception - something we definitely didn't expect from a coordinator. Our reception venue had staff that set the tables etc., and we had a florist, but CEM reviewed everything, made sure the placecards/kids bags/high chiars were in the right place down to the chair, etc. They also were familiar with the type of photobooth we rented and they set it up entirely for us. All this set up and more was just way beyond what we expected and extremely helpful. We could tell they were invested in making everything beautiful and perfect. Sarah also took several beautiful photos for us - a complete surprise and very special treat. One of our favorite photos from the night was one she took of our first dance. This also gave us a sneak peak into what the reception looked like before anyone had arrived! (All attached photos are from her). We had an issue with our seating chart and they saved the day - long story short it was going to be delivered AFTER the wedding and we thought we were out of luck. I mentioned the issue to Kenzie and when I arrived from the church after the ceremony I saw the seating chart in the doorway before our entry! She had ordered it, picked it up, and set it up for us. I don't know how she did it, but she did, and it was so thoughtful and touching that she would put in that extra effort on top of everything they had on their plates. I could go on and on but I hope this reflects just some of what CEM did for our wedding and how thrilled we were with them. They are a lovely group of people. If we HAD to cut any cost or change any vendor, they would be last on the list. It was perfect.

Candace with Overjoyed Weddings and Events was absolutely amazing! From the moment we hired her, she jumped right in to organize our scattered thoughts and plans. Our venue had separate areas for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception, and Candace kept everything running perfectly—making each transition smooth and on time.
