If you want perfection, you truly need to go with Party Perfection Weddings Events! Marissa was our coordinator, along with her assistant, Erin. They truly made everything go so smoothly from the days leading up to and the day of the wedding. They also assisted with our rehearsal dinner, which was perfect! There were many times we gave them creative freedom when it came to designs, decor, or how we wanted the day to go. And they did not disappoint! They answered all of our questions at any time during the day or night, and if I was worried about anything going wrong, Marissa always said "Well, you won't know about it." I have said to so many people since the wedding that if anything went wrong, I was never made aware...that's how amazing they are! We can't thank Marissa and Erin, along with other team members enough! Our day truly was more than we could ever hoped for!

Hi, I'm Crystal! Owner and lead planner of The Penny Pincher Planner. I found my love for weddings and events while pursuing a degree in Hospitality Management at East Carolina University (Arghh!) Upon graduating, I pursued a career as a wedding venue coordinator/ planner, where I was fortunate to build lasting relationships with amazing couples and talented vendors. When planning my wedding, I found it challenging to find ways to achieve the high-end look I envisioned within my budget. During this journey, I came to realize that I want to help other couples achieve this goal for their special day.

Crystal is a wonderful person to work with. She automatically puts you at ease with her warm personality. She is organized, keeps you informed and keeps everything moving on time. You will not regret your decision on securing Crystal for your special day!

Talia is simply the best. She goes above and beyond to help make your wedding day the most special, stress free day. From start to finish, vendors and planning, every i was dotted and every t was crossed. During our planning, she was extremely responsive and was one (or 10 haha) steps ahead of us at all times. I didn't stress about anything during the planning phase or the day of because Talia and her team had every single detail under control and executed everything perfectly. I could go on and on about how awesome Four 26 Events is but the most important thing I can say is that I would recommend her to ANYONE getting married. Hands down, the best money spent for our wedding. I would have her plan my life if I could!

Mandy was the absolute best!!! Our wedding would not have been our wedding without her. I was a very detail oriented bride and she had every single thing I wanted done and ready for our guests! From helping us figure out the logistics, to setting up our dreamy reception, fighting the rain off for our ceremony, and just being there for whatever we needed. I can honestly say I had 0 stress on wedding day (and it was pouring rain!) and it was all because of Mandy. She made sure everything was handled before I even realized something was wrong. She made our families lives easier and made it so they could enjoy the day as well by handling all prep and clean up. She made sure everything we wanted happened no matter what. I recommend her to everyone I know!!! Hoping we do a big vow renewal so she can plan another event for us!!! She was very communicative throughout our 1.5 year engagement and her and her team are so professional.

Where do I even begin? Liz is truly a one of a kind human being. I don’t think I could ever fully put into words how exceptional she is. Her warm, genuine personality, constant professionalism, and humble, grounded presence made every part of the planning process feel supported, organized, and despite my natural overthinking stress. We didn’t originally plan on hiring a wedding planner. But about nine months out, I quickly realized I needed help. Choosing Liz ended up being one of the best decisions we made. She guided us through every detail with ease and confidence. Not only did she help manage our entire wedding, but she also planned our honeymoon, which turned out to be beyond anything we ever could have imagined. One of our top activities in Aruba opened for reservations the day after our wedding, and Liz booked it immediately that morning to get us in. She booked all activities and restaurants for us. Anytime I had a question, which was often, she responded within minutes or simply called me. She made everything fun, approachable, and stress-free. She kept detailed tabs on every task and ensured nothing slipped through the cracks. Even when I had the majority of vendors and plans in place, she refined everything with such precision. She understood my personality and how overwhelmed I can get, even when things are technically “done,” and she guided me through everything with patience and grace. The week of the wedding, she checked in frequently. On the day of, she was phenomenal. Every detail was set up exactly how we envisioned it. Labeling bins and décor helped her and her assistant move seamlessly, and I’m so grateful because she executed our entire moody/vintage aesthetic vision flawlessly. Two days before the wedding, when I couldn’t find greenery anywhere, Liz made one or two calls and found it instantly. I’ll never forget when I urgently needed our honeymoon flight information for our rental car info and she literally pulled over on the highway to send it to me. That is who she is, someone who goes above and beyond in ways most people wouldn’t even consider. Her pricing is more than fair, and her service is worth every single penny. Whether you need full-service planning or just check-ins, she adapts to exactly what you need. I had most things planned, but still had countless details and small several questions lol. No matter how minor or silly they felt, she always responded with kindness and expertise. Our FaceTime meetings became a highlight of the planning process. Occasionally, her pups or her daughter would pop into the frame, making everything feel personal-not like a business transaction, but like talking to a friend who genuinely cared about us and our day. Liz is an amazing planner, but she is an even better human. Humble, compassionate, creative, organized, and incredibly knowledgeable, especially with florals. I made my own centerpieces, and with her guidance, they turned out exactly how I imagined. Russell and I are endlessly grateful she was part of our wedding. I could cry thinking about how much she did for us. Liz, thank you for making our day perfect. Thank you for your dedication, your heart, your time, and your incredible talent. We truly could not have done any of this without you. No wedding turns out perfect, but everything Liz was involved with/in charge of - was. We are forever thankful for her.

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.

Words can't express how amazing Bre was to work with! Before I found Bre I was overwhelmed with ever aspect of wedding planning - I didn't even know where to start when it came to catering, flowers, signage, timelines, etc. Not only did she help this unorganized bride with planning an entire wedding, but she provided such comfort and ease for the actual wedding day. I didn't have to worry about how anything looked or how the "flow" of events would work because Bre was on top of it all.

Whether you’re looking for full-service planning or just need assistance with specific aspects, we provide multiple packages and a la carte options to fit your needs. You dream it, we create it.

Avenue Design Studio - Planning & Rentals was an absolute lifesaver for our wedding. When our caterer canceled the night before the wedding, Chad jumped into action and put together the most incredible charcuterie board for our cocktail hour. They went above and beyond, spending countless hours that morning to ensure everything was perfect. Chad's attention to detail and tireless efforts truly made our wedding day special. We couldn't have pulled it off without the Avenue Design Studio team, and we are so grateful for their professionalism and responsiveness in a stressful situation. We highly recommend them to any couple planning their big day.

I honestly don’t even know where to begin! After being scammed by another planner, I was desperate to find someone trustworthy, reliable, and truly passionate about making my wedding special. And then I found Lauren. From the moment we started working together, she went above and beyond in ways I never imagined. Not only did she handle every detail with such professionalism and care, but she also took on so much more than I ever asked of her. As a DIY bride, I was feeling overwhelmed, but Lauren stepped in and completely transformed the space with her incredible decorating skills. She turned my vision into reality, and it was absolutely stunning. Every little detail was handled seamlessly, and I didn’t have to worry about a thing. Her attention to detail, organization, and creativity truly exceeded my expectations, and I am so grateful for everything she did to make my day perfect. If you’re looking for a wedding planner who is not only talented but also genuinely cares about your experience, look no further than Magnolia Collective! I can’t recommend her enough!

Working with Combe & Co. was a breeze for us as wedding vendors. They were friendly and punctual in their communication, which made the planning process smooth and straightforward. I enjoyed their nice approach to coordinating everything, and we always knew what we needed to do and where we needed to be.

We had our wedding in South of France, and our vision was to celebrate an evening with our loved ones with some non traditional elements, that complement us as a couple. Sanjam was spot on with her vendor recommendations. The whole process felt like a breeze! I'm a type A bride, and hard to please but she had my trust from the first meeting and I'm so glad we hired her!

I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Erin. I planned my wedding over a 2 year period and Erin was there every step of the way helping with vendor selection, timelines, site visits, and any question I could possibly have. She was very timely with her responses, extremely organized, and was always down to jump on a zoom call with me. My wedding would not have been what it was without Erin's help, I feel very lucky to have had her as a day of coordinator!
