Okay let start off by saying we decided to have our wedding early this year in the mountains as my husband is in the military and his schedule would be changing a lot this year. Yes it was very cold but we loved it! The venue had an awesome view of the mountains and most of our guests stsyed at cabins nerby so very easy. We found this compajy on zola and needed help so we hired them. We had to make changes for our ceremony since we planned to have it outside but decided to move it inside last min because of how cold it was but Cece and Alex made this happen quickly. The caterer showed up a little late but it wasnt too late and the food was great. During one of the dances my dress came apart in the back ans Cece caught it a fixed it!!! I was so thankful for all the little extra details that were done. Cece also helped woth the bar ehen our bartender we hired was a little backed up, Alex was super nice and gave us a little gift at the end of thr night, We couldnt be more happy of our mountain wedding

Black Orchid Events NC

  • Serves Waynesville, NC

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!

Working with The Southern Planner was one of the best decisions made for my sister’s wedding. From their first conversation, she was efficient in her communication and careful with every detail, which gave my sister so much peace of mind throughout the planning process.

It was an absolute pleasure working with Memories Made with Brittney Lashea at a wedding recently. I've worked in the wedding photography business for five years now, and I've seen a LOT of planners in that time. Brittney stands head and shoulders above nearly all of them! She's extremely professional, knowledgable, and experienced, and all of these things manifested in a classy, smooth-running and elegant wedding event. It went off without a hitch. As a professional, Brittney helped make my job easier in various ways, from communicating the timeline well in advance, to even setting up and posing some fun and tricky shots. There were several cases where I was afforded much more time to photograph than I'm typically allowed, which is a rare, unexpected but appreciated blessing. She gracefully coordinated and navigated the day, keeping things on-track in an extremely friendly, professional way. I look forward to working with Memories Made with Brittney Lashea again and again. Robert Burns Owner, Robert Burns II Photography & Videography

Theresa was in charge of making things go smoothly and took care of any problem that happened . She kept anything upsetting from the bride. She also kept things moving in an orderly manner. We never wondered what we were suppose to do . She kept us on task and took care of everything as it came. We weren’t aware of her getting the grounds mowed and when time came and it wasn’t. She took care of it. She seemed like family by be the end of the two days. She was such a nice person and so good at what she does. She was supportive, and paid attention to every detail. She used her china and glassware at the reception and it was gorgeous . She took a plain room and made it look beautiful. My favorite thing she did was make sure the pictures went smoothly and quickly. There was no wasted time at all. There wasn’t one thing that would keep me from hiring her again. The wedding was perfect. She was great. She was smart and on top of things. I would give her the highest of ratings.

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!

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.

If you want to see your dreams come true, using Parris as your wedding planner is the way to make that happen. She is extremely thorough and confident in what she does. We went with her full service planning and it is beyond worth it. It's hard to say I ever felt stressed while planning the wedding, and the entire wedding day could not have gone more perfectly/smoothly/stress-free. While she strives to place you with the best vendors, she keeps budget and personal preferences in mind. Parris is fun, thoughtful, full of knowledge, and easily one of the best at what she does. I can't say enough how thankful we are to have had her as our planner and I recommend to everyone to book her asap!

Gabby from 'Cause We Can Events is the most wonderful, amazing, kind, and helpful person I've ever met. My husband and I hired Gabby for month of coordination for our wedding in January 2025. We touched base here and there as needed, met about 3 months out to run through what we'd put together so far, she put us in the direction of making the finishing touches, then we met again about a month out, then two weeks out. Over this time, Gabby was so helpful with suggestions, vendor help, coordinating schedules, and making sure the plan was perfect! What we didn't know is that a giant snowstorm would hit the weekend of our wedding. This made it crazy and stressful for all of us, but when I tell you Gabby was the most amazing with handling this... I mean it. She dealt with anything and everything such as rearranging tables due to guests who couldn't attend, helping schedule vendors at a time before or after snow, helping find ways for other vendors to get to the venue because of the snow, and literally everything else under the sun. We feel so blessed to have had Gabby from 'Cause We Can Events as our wedding planner, because I think without her, the entire day could have crumbled. She is welcoming and loving of all, firm and direct where she needs to be, and so incredibly organized! I would highly recommend her and anyone from the 'Cause We Can Events team for your wedding! And then give her a big hug from me because she's literally my favorite person ever.

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.
