Travis and his band were absolutely phenomenal to work with for our wedding. The music was great; he learned our first dance song perfectly; the selection of music meant there was something for everyone; and he even had tarps to put up to keep the music going as the rain came down. Absolutely professional and a joy to work with. Plus, a bunch of my musician friends from around town recommended Travis and said he's fun to play with. You'll think so too. Thanks, Travis!

Reflections Media captured my wedding day just as I wanted. Bipin and Chacie took the time to understand exactly what I wanted and captured every moment and detail. The final product brought tears to my eyes as I watched the highlight video and looked through our pictures. I have had several people tell me they could ‘feel the happiness and the love’ just by looking at the pictures. Communication was very good and helpful (for those times when I didn’t know what I wanted). I am very happy with my decision to book reflections media.

Where do we even begin? Taylor, our DJ, didn't just meet our expectations, he absolutely obliterated them! He flew all the way from Charleston to Cabo for our wedding, and even when his nearest airport was shut down due to a snowstorm, he found a way to get to us. That level of dedication is simply unmatched. But it wasn't just his commitment that blew us away. From the moment he started, the energy was electric. Taylor's emcee skills are top-tier. He was hilarious, engaging, and kept the party going all night long. He even hosted an epic twerk-off contest, letting us, the bride and groom, crown the winners – it was a highlight of the night! What truly sets Taylor apart is his ability to handle anything that came his way with grace and positivity. Weddings are unpredictable, and Taylor navigated every unforeseen moment with a smile and a solution. He seamlessly managed the flow of the evening, ensuring everything ran smoothly and the dance floor was always packed. More than just a DJ, Taylor has become a dear friend. We now wish he could emcee and DJ every event we host! If you're looking for someone who can elevate your event beyond your wildest dreams, Taylor is your guy. He knows how to keep the vibes way above expectations, and we can't recommend him highly enough. Thank you, Taylor, for making our wedding an unforgettable celebration!

We craft timeless memories in our photos and videos. My background in Psychology helps me capture the essence of your special moments. We're dedicated to authentically telling your story through our lenses.

I recently hired Dennis to capture my surprise/secret proposal, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! From start to finish it was an incredible day. Dennis is incredibly friendly, making me and my fiancé feel completely at ease, especially despite my nerves during the big moment. His professionalism was top-notch, as he knew exactly when and where to be without ever being intrusive, which is a tricky balance to strike during such a private and emotional event. What really stood out was his sense of humor. He kept things light and fun, which helped calm my jitters and made the whole experience enjoyable rather than stressful. Plus, that quick wit he has is amazing, and seeing him pretend to be on a phone call as we walked up to the spot had me chuckling even as I was about to pop the question! The photos turned out absolutely stunning. They are natural, candid, and full of emotion. I’m so grateful for his ability to capture such a personal moment so beautifully and discreetly.

To say Shannon is a pleasure to work with is an understatement. She was always easy to talk with and kept in touch the months leading up to my wedding. The day before the wedding she was proactive and met with me to scope out the venue, noting all of the places that was important to us but more importantly, was very knowledgeable on what locations would work best for views and lighting. On the day of the wedding her expertise truly showed! Shannon was very professional but also down to earth and kept the day fun! She helped us with poses as the groom & I weren’t sure what we needed to do and they turned out perfect! After the wedding, she worked quickly to get all of our beautiful pictures back in a very timely manner! Shannon gave us pictures that will last a lifetime, she is an amazingly talented individual and the work she produces is truly remarkable!

Hiring Brenna from Blissnics for full-service wedding planning was, without a doubt, the best decision we made throughout our entire wedding journey. Planning from out of state was intimidating, but Brenna made the process effortless and enjoyable from day one. One of the absolute biggest reliefs was not having to communicate with vendors at all. Brenna managed everything—gathering quotes, comparing packages, answering questions, negotiating details, and handling contracts. I truly didn’t realize how tedious and time-consuming those tasks were until I saw how seamlessly she took them off our plate. It saved us so much time, stress, and second-guessing. We felt completely taken care of. Brenna went above and beyond in every way. She toured venues on our behalf (and ultimately found us our dream wedding location!), built our budget, and helped us figure out where to allocate funds based on what mattered most to us. Without her, we would’ve had no idea how much things really cost—or how to plan for all the extras like taxes and tips. What stood out the most was how well she got to know us—not just as clients, but as a couple. She understood our style, our personalities, and our priorities. Every meeting was organized, thoughtful, and productive. She helped bring my design vision to life, walking me through rental options and curating every detail to reflect what I had imagined (honestly, it felt like she stepped inside my Pinterest board and made it real!). On our wedding day, Brenna and her team were the calm, capable presence. Everything was perfectly timed and beautifully set up. She created a detailed, minute-by-minute itinerary and coordinated it with all our vendors. I went to bed the night before the wedding completely at peace, and woke up feeling calm and excited—because I knew Brenna had it all under control. I truly just had to show up, and she and her team had created the most magical, fairytale day. Brenna is not only incredibly professional and talented—she’s kind, thoughtful, and deeply invested in her couples. I can’t recommend her enough. If you're even thinking about hiring a wedding planner, let this be your sign: trust Brenna. You’ll be so, so glad you did!

15+ years of experience as a Fashion Photographer in NYC, My editorial approach reimagines traditional wedding photography for fashion-forward couples, blending fine art with a romantic aesthetic. My personal passions are deeply rooted in fashion, design and minimalism. These influences are deeply steeped into my wedding work. I specialize in editorial and elegant luxury wedding photography that tells your story intimately and artfully by beautifully balancing raw emotions and styled elegance.

From the very first moment we met Ash Dingess, we knew we were in the best hands. There was an instant connection—like she just got us. She tuned into our vibe so naturally, it felt less like working with a photographer and more like being guided by a friend who truly understood our story. On our wedding day, that connection made all the difference. Ash had an incredible intuition for choosing the perfect locations and settings—every backdrop felt like it was made just for us. She captured not only how everything looked, but exactly how it felt in those moments. Every photo reflects the joy, the love, and the energy of the day so authentically. Looking back through our photos, we’re blown away by how beautifully she told our story. Ash didn’t just take pictures—she created memories we’ll cherish forever. We couldn’t have asked for a more talented, thoughtful, and in-sync photographer.

Choosing Alissa to be our wedding photographer was easily one of the absolute BEST decisions we have made! She is an amazing photographer and truly cares about every couple she works with. From the very beginning, it was a breeze to work with her. Alissa does so much more than taking amazing pictures; she is always there to answer any questions you have, she puts a timeline together for the wedding day to help things run smoothly, and she is such a calming and fun person to be around! Her pictures and video are absolutely breathtaking. She makes everything feel so natural and the essence of us as a couple really shows through the photos. Alissa made the wedding day so much fun and I couldn't imagine the day without her by our side. Book her NOW, you will not regret it!

When you do the Partial Planning package, you are hiring a professional project manager who genuinely cares about your vision and can help guide you to make it a realty. We worked with Krista, who was direct and conversational, making it easy to ask questions and work through decisions together. She was extremely adaptable, staying flexible with our needs like scheduling meetings only after 7pm and helping us understand what's really important and what can be cut when making our Pinterest dreams come true on a budget. Her expertise with contracts and vendor relationships was also extremely helpful— she helped us understand what contract elements were boilerplate and what we needed to push back on. She also helped make sure we were considering the details we didn't even know to worry about, which gave us peace of mind throughout the planning process. The only feedback I have is that the email inbox set up can make it difficult to track correspondence chains, and that we had some issues being cc'ed on all correspondence with vendors early on. There were instances I wished I could shoot over a text to clarify something, but that privilege is reserved for the final month of planning- when things are actually urgent. On the day of, the coordination brings your dreams to life without you needing to think about anything but marrying the love of your life. Their photography background meant they structured our timeline in a way that helped our photographer capture every moment without us ever feeling rushed. We had a lot of moving parts-- horse and carriage ride, different location for ceremony and first look, full tent flip rain plan, different buildings for both brides getting married, 14 bridesmaids, 4 separate companies for rentals and 2 separate companies for bar and food-- and the Chantilly Lace team made sure everyone knew exactly what our vision was and how to pull it together. We are so grateful we found this team and can't recommend them enough. Photo credit to Simply Best Photography -- we also cannot recommend her enough!

Pinnacle Weddings is a full service Wedding Company for couples who desire an effortless and romantic wedding day. We design and plan a Wedding Day unique to you and make sure that we make your dream day become a reality

Linda Warner and Pinnacle Wedding Planning are absolutely phenomenal! Our event was a complex affair with many moving parts and cultural elements to it. Vendors who we the family chose, unfortunately, did not meet the professional standards we had hoped for. Despite these challenges, Linda managed everything with grace, poise, and an impressive level of expertise. Her ability to keep things running smoothly and beautifully was nothing short of remarkable. Even during moments that could have been chaotic, her calm demeanor and resourcefulness brought a much-needed sense of reassurance. I am truly grateful for her dedication and skill, which turned a stressful day into a beautiful and seamless experience. I cannot recommend Linda and Pinnacle Wedding Planning highly enough—she was nothing short of incredible!

We are Richelle and Nicole, the duo behind Love, Evermore Events. Based in the Carolinas, we create weddings that look like editorial dreams and run with absolute precision. We believe every couple deserves a professional advocate who values the marriage as much as the party, which is why we never enforce minimum budgets. Our mission is to make sure you show up as the guest of honor, fully present in every moment while we handle the heavy lifting behind the scenes.

Working with Richelle and Nicole from Love Evermore Events was the best decision we made for our wedding. From our first conversation, we appreciated how quickly they responded to our questions and genuinely listened to what we wanted for our day. This duo brought so much creativity to the planning process while staying grounded with practical solutions, and they were flexible whenever we needed to adjust our vision. By the end of planning, they felt less like vendors and more like friends, and our wedding day turned out absolutely perfect because of them. We honestly cannot put a price on what they brought to our big day!!

The team at the Francis Marion Hotel was an absolute pleasure to work with. Their communication was prompt, attentive, and highly detailed throughout the entire planning process.

I’m Stephen, a Charleston-based photographer drawn to the real moments that make a love story unforgettable. My work is rooted in natural storytelling, honest emotion, and the beauty of the Lowcountry: soft marsh light, historic streets, ocean air, and the kind of scenery that already feels romantic. I’m passionate about photographing couples because these images become part of a family’s history. The laughter, nerves, quiet glances, happy tears, and celebration all deserve to be remembered with care. My goal is to help you feel comfortable, present, and fully yourselves, while creating photos that feel timeless, personal, and true to you.

We knew we found our photographer. Easy to work with, kept us informed, and showed up ready to take control! On our engagement day, putting everyone at ease and help create a fun, relaxed vibe throughout the celebration. Every meaningful moment with even getting details we didn't even know we'd want!
