Megan from Wedding Whisperers truly exceeded all of our expectations as our wedding coordinator. From the very beginning, she was organized, attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure our special day was flawless. Our wedding party even commented on how well-organized the rehearsal was, thanks to Megan's attention to detail. Throughout the entire planning process, Megan was not only a coordinator but also a friend and sounding board for all of our ideas and concerns. On the day of the wedding, she was like a personal assistant, making sure everything ran smoothly and attending to our every need. What really stood out to us was how Megan handled a last-minute crisis with such grace and professionalism. She truly saved the day, and we are forever grateful for her quick thinking and problem-solving skills. The only regret we have is not opting for the full-service planning package with Megan, as we are sure it would have been worth every penny. We are sad that our time with Megan has come to an end now that we are married, as she truly became a part of our lives during the planning process. Overall, we cannot recommend Megan and Wedding Whisperers enough. Our wedding would not have been as incredible as it was without her expertise and dedication.

Lauren ‘Lo’ Tangires was, without a doubt, the best decision we made when it came to our wedding. From the moment we started working together, she proved herself to be an absolute rock, someone I could lean on and trust throughout the entire planning process. Not only did she handle every detail with precision, but she also did so with such a calm and positive energy, which truly kept me grounded in what could have been a stressful time. Lo quickly became more than just our wedding planner – she became one of my closest friends. She was there for me through every high and low, and even during my crankiest moments, she never wavered in her support. She had this amazing way of making me feel at ease, constantly reassuring me that everything was under control, and that meant the world to me. No matter how many questions I threw her way or how many times I changed my mind, Lo was patient, organized, and always on top of everything. On the day of the wedding, Lo was nothing short of a superhero. It wasn’t a day without challenges – from the unpredictable weather to vendor hiccups – but I can honestly say it felt perfect because of how seamlessly Lo handled it all. She battled the rain, managed every little detail, and kept every single person in line. The fact that I was able to relax and truly enjoy the day was all thanks to her hard work and dedication. Lo has this incredible ability to make you feel like you’re the only bride she’s working with, and her attention to detail is unmatched. Her grace under pressure, her constant professionalism, and her genuine care for me as both a bride and a friend made my wedding experience beyond anything I could have imagined. There is no one I would trust more to be by your side on your big day. If you’re looking for someone who will go above and beyond, who will make sure your wedding is everything you’ve ever dreamed of, and who will do it all with a smile – Lo is your person. I couldn’t have asked for a better planner, and I am endlessly grateful for everything she did for us.

Let’s get to know each other! 👋🏼 Hi, I’m Brittany — and I’m so excited you’re here! First of all, thank you for considering me to be a part of your special day. With over 10 years of experience in wedding planning and design, I’ve had the absolute joy of helping couples bring their dream weddings to life. When I’m not coordinating timelines or fluffing veils, you’ll find me soaking up the sun ☀️, sipping on coffee ☕, or spending time with my crew — my husband of 7 years, our two amazing kids and our two pups, Bear and Boone.

Brittany was an awesome day-of coordinator! If we had to go back and do it again, Brittany would be one of the first people we would call. She brought a much needed calm, conscientious, and confident presence to give us the perfect day. She was around every step of the way to understand the big-picture and minute-by-minute logistics. She helped us create our timeline, wrangle and align all the vendors, and stayed in close contact with everybody to keep the event going the exact way we imagined. When small issues would emerge, she handled them with ease and speed. When we ran behind schedule, she was reassuring and did a great job helping us prioritize what we needed to do. She was also incredibly hospitable and thoughtful – she even brought us a plate of appetizers since we were doing photos during our cocktail hour! The last thing I wanted to say is that Brittany was actually our SECOND day-of coordinator, because we had to fire our first one. Maybe that means we have high standards? I don’t know. But, if we do, Brittany certainly exceeded them. She gave us tremendous confidence in her and her ability to carry out our event throughout the entire process. -Zak and Hannah

We are a boutique wedding planning company based in North Carolina and serving The East Coast and The Bahamas. At The White Rose Co. we pride ourselves on getting to know our couples and we believe that those relationships are integral to building a wedding that is truly reflective of our clients personalities. 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.

We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding planner. From start to finish, no detail was missed. Amy was incredibly thorough and made sure everything came together seamlessly. Throughout the process, she was supportive, flexible with any changes we needed, and always quick to communicate. Her organization and care made the entire experience feel stress-free and truly enjoyable. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone reliable and dedicated (and a great eye for aesthetics!)

Words cannot explain how grateful we are for Lisa. She was so kind, responsive, and attentive! Her work is beautiful and her overall work ethic is unmatched. When planning a wedding it is so stressful especially when you’re dealing with so many different vendors. Lisa ALWAYS responded to me in a timely manner. I would recommend her time and time again to whoever is looking for a coordinator for any event.

Rae of Fun Events was amazing to work with for our wedding! From the start, her communication was fast and efficient - she was always quick to respond to my questions and ideas. Everything she did for our wedding exceeded my standards. She knew exactly what I needed to jazz up every idea I threw her way, and she was amazing to work with all around. She was so helpful in areas I was confused in, and made my special day worry-free and I truly couldn't have asked for anything more.
