Our experience with The Southern Planner was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we first connected, Shelby and her team demonstrated a prompt, fun, and calming communication style that immediately put us at ease. Their dedication to our special day was evident in every detail - they were truly invested in ensuring our wedding was a success. Shelby's keen eye for timely, insightful planning meant I didn't have to worry about a single thing, and she even went so far as to literally keep my dress out of the mud during our photo session. I honestly believe Shelby was sent to me by God, and I am forever grateful for the Southern Planner's invaluable support in making our wedding day perfect.

I can't say enough good things about our wedding coordinator Kate and her assistant! From start to finish, Kate was incredibly organized, attentive, and professional. She took all the stress out of planning and made sure every detail was perfect. From helping me with my timeline, vendor communication, running our rehearsal, and setting up and breaking down on our wedding day she did it all! Our big day went off without a hitch, and it was all thanks to their hard work and dedication. Highly recommend!

We believe that every wedding should feel like an extension of the couple — intentional, personal, and deeply meaningful. Specializing in full-service wedding planning and coordination, we design experiences that go beyond the expected, creating celebrations that are as unique as the people at the heart of them. Our approach is rooted in thoughtful curation and intentional design, ensuring that every detail reflects your story.

Awarded Best of Zola
The KnightCo. Events team was absolutely incredible from the beginning to the end. My venue required us to have a coordinator, but I was really skeptical about whether I needed one. Now that I've gone through the entire process, I can confidently say yes, you do need one, and yes, it should be KnightCo. Events! Chynna was always available to answer my questions in the months leading up to my destination wedding. She was actively engaged in every meeting with our venue, even the early morning ones with a 3 hour time difference. Once the package officially kicked in 6 weeks out, KCE took over all of the communication with vendors, which allowed me to take a break from the planning. It was hard for me to give up control, but it was ultimately worth it, especially as we got closer to the wedding day. When one of our vendors was 2 hours late on the day of the wedding, Chynna stepped in and was able to clear everything up within minutes of me notifying her. Chynna felt like another one of my best friends on the wedding day—there to offer me lipstick, a makeup pad, stain remover... she had literally anything I could need and offered it before I even knew that I needed it! Everything stayed on schedule and she checked in with us often but discreetly to make sure we had everything we needed. And the next day as we were already buzzing with excitement, she surprised us with a behind the scenes gallery of photos and videos that allowed us to relive our perfect day. I can't say enough great things about this team. Absolutely no regrets about booking with KnightCo. Events!

From wedding planning to corporate events, let the team at YPDE take your event to the next level. Fun Facts Liz and Leah (owner of YPD-PA) are identical twins. Loves destination weddings Enjoys being creative with event design and floral set ups Plays Tennis and loves taking wildlife/nature photography lived in Alaska for several years, which means outdoor events are a piece of cake!

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

The Perfect Plan 

5.0

  • Offers 4 services
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Rutledge, TN

The Perfect Plan was born from a deep-seated belief that every couple deserves to experience the joy of their engagement without the stress of wedding planning. Our founder, Connie Nye Clark, spent two decades immersed in the hospitality industry, mastering the art of event execution and building a robust network of trusted vendor relationships. She saw firsthand the difference a seamless, expertly planned event makes—not just for the guests, but for the couple themselves. We exist to guide you through every decision, big or small, ensuring your journey to "I do" is as beautiful and stress-free as the day itself.

Awarded Best of Zola
We first met Connie Clark when our daughter was organizing her wedding reception. At that time, Connie was involved with a startup venue that was undergoing renovations. To cut a long story short, around 7 PM the evening before our daughter's reception, it became clear that the venue was not prepared. When the venue manager was not responding to her calls, she rallied the group that was financing the remodeling project. By 10 PM, the lead investor instructed Connie to find an alternative location for the reception, which was scheduled for the following evening. Connie reached out to a nearby coffee shop/bar, explained the situation, and requested the on-duty manager to contact the owner to see if the reception could be held there. Shortly after, Connie received confirmation that the reception would take place at the new venue. She informed the investment group about the change in location and began reorganizing for the new space. Our family learned of the change around 7:30 AM on the day of the reception, and once we gave our approval, Connie assembled a team and transformed the coffee house/bar into a beautiful reception hall. What Connie managed to coordinate and accomplish in such a brief period was truly remarkable.

Black Orchid Events is a local WNC event production company specializing in event planning, bar and event staffing in and around Asheville, Hendersonville, Brevard, Highland, Cashiers, and beyond. Based in Western North Carolina we have extensive knowledge and experience in the area. Our team has long-standing relationships with local vendors, venues, breweries, restaurants, and attractions. We can help you find the perfect vendor team to plan an unforgettable event that fits your budget and personal style.

If you're reading this and trying to decide on bar services or staffing for your event, STOP LOOKING! THIS IS THE ONE! Heidi and Tristen are the most wonderful, creative, and kind people and they make delicious drinks to boot! After finding Black Orchid on our wedding planner's vendor shortlist, I am so, so happy we chose Black Orchid for our wedding. Even before we signed a contract, Heidi was so helpful in sharing experience and industry knowledge - my partner has worked in the restaurant industry and has been an amateur cocktail connoisseur since COVID times, and he felt so comfortable in their first meeting that we booked them immediately. Heidi was enthusiastic about planning our signature cocktails alongside us - even making a black walnut syrup from her own tree to use in our old-fashioned AND juicing carrots for my gin cocktail!! Helene hit a month before our scheduled wedding date, and (second to our venue - s/o Twisty Maple!!) Black Orchid was the vendor we knew we couldn't move forward without. Luckily, after communication was re-established, Heidi was flexible and we worked with her to reschedule. Once our second date got closer, my partner and I visited WNC to get back into the wedding spirit and Heidi and Tristen *came to our AirBnB* to sample our signature cocktails. They became fast friends and we chatted for hours! On our wedding day, it felt so special to have both Tristen and Heidi (as well as their staff) working our event. Professional and poised, they brought the perfect calm energy that we wanted to our small and personal celebration. I highly recommend reaching out to Black Orchid for your event. You won't regret it. Tell them Jade and Sam sent ya!

Hey there! We are a team of event planners located right in the middle of the Great Smoky Mountains. We are driven by our desire to create celebrations uniquely personal to your love stories. Our teams also provide videography and custom event stationary. Check out our website for more details!

I planned a destination wedding in Tennessee and it would not have been possible (no exaggeration) without Whitney and her team at Emerald Cut Events! Unfortunately, our selected venue did not effectively communicate with me before or during the wedding but I was so grateful to have someone on my side. Whitney went above and beyond to execute everything we had planned and make our day special. Even in the pouring rain, Emerald Cut Events impressed me, my husband, and our families with their dedication and determination. When your wedding coordinator is willing to hijack a golf cart for you because your venue left you stranded minutes before the ceremony, you know you chose the right person! If you are looking for a team that cares about your special day and is hard working and reliable, pick Emerald Cut Events. Choose them, you will love them!

Lindsey Mae Events & Designs was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very first meeting, their communication was professional, timely, and joyful. They brought unique wedding design ideas to the table, such as incorporating vintage china and classy floral arrangements that truly made our special day one-of-a-kind.

At Destination 2 I Do, we plan destination weddings in Mexico and the Caribbean with no planning fee to you as we are paid directly by our trusted resort partners. This allows us to fully focus on creating seamless, elevated experiences while securing exclusive perks, upgrades, and a dedicated onsite coordinator for you. In addition to our destination focus, we also offer other levels of wedding planning within the US for an additional fee and honeymoon planning and room blocks are included.

Destination 2 I Do made our destination wedding experience better than we could have imagined. From start to finish, the process felt smooth, supportive, and well organized. Planning a wedding away from home can feel intimidating, but we always felt guided and taken care of. Our wedding day was perfect and exceeded our expectations in every way. We loved everything and received such high quality service. Best part was the customer service we received and the planning service was free. We already recommend their services to everyone we know who is planning a destination wedding.

I went with Prestige Planning for my wedding planner because of the ease of use. I met with my certified wedding planner before I booked and she was amazing and explained the whole process. I knew I could plan my own wedding but I’m not a pro at all so I knew I would need a lot of help. I didn’t want to spend the money on a full wedding planner so going this route was absolutely perfect. They were with me every step of the way. I especially liked the SOS calls they give because I needed them to assist with a vendor I was having an issue with. I knew I was going to need help with logistics and stuff on the actual day of my wedding because I wouldn’t have time to do so, so I added the coordination add on to my package. So I got my wedding planned with major help from an actual certified planner and coordination for my wedding day for less than others are charging for just coordination. Just go for it. You will not be disappointed at all! They really went above and beyond and did more for me than what they had outlined they would do. I got more than my money worth.

We truly can't express how thankful we are to have used W Events and to have Myryrah as our lead! We worked with her and the team for over a year to help us plan the perfect weekend and she really exceeded all our expectations! She really listened and made every request and vision come to life every step of the way and helped us find the perfect vendors to align with all our ideas! Myryrah would always respond to my texts in a timely and meaningful way no matter when it was or how little the detail it was about! Our wedding weekend couldn't have been more stress-free and absolutely perfect due to all their behind the scenes work that her and her team did! We are so lucky that we not only had the best weekend of our lives, but we also gained a friend through the process!! In short, we truly could not recommend them more!

Congratulations, you’re engaged! We are so honored to work with couples from all walks of life to create a day that is uniquely you. On your wedding day, you’ll have a team to advocate for you, be by your side and help you pull off a celebration that’s one to remember.

We hired Michelle Knutson for our November 2025 Palm Springs wedding and truly could not be happier with our experience. We had a fairly small event, so we went with the day-of-coordinator package. Michelle truly went above and beyond just the day-of coordinating. She coordinated a couple intros zooms, got in touch with our venue and all of our vendors beforehand and brought us solutions when we realized we were going to be rained on. The day of she was a straight shooter - direct and ran a tight ship. But she was also warm, friendly and upbeat. Her assistant even took care of my dog for me and made sure he was fed and walked! We are forever grateful to her and her team for making our day so special. 10/10 recommend!
