    Wedding Planning that Takes the Stress Off

    I am writing this review both as an employee of Rice and Co., but also as another wedding vendor. The thought Charley puts into her clients to ensure that nobody involved has any extra stress on them is truly incredible. From the time we enter a wedding until the time we leave, Charley is level-headed, calm, and organized. I cannot recommend her services enough!

    Rice & Co above and beyond

    Rice Co. Events was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. Their communication throughout the planning process was clear, timely, and prompt, which was so appreciated as we navigated all the details. They brought a creative, proactive approach and paid close attention to every aspect, ensuring our special day went off without a hitch. When things didn't go exactly as planned (weather wise), they had amazing ideas on the spot to address any challenges. We are so grateful for their hard work and expertise, which truly made our wedding day everything we dreamed it would be.

    The Best Investment!

    As a wedding photographer, I work with tons of different vendors. Some of which, truly stand out - like Charley Rice. Charley and her team were phenomenal! They are so easy to work with, so welcoming, and SO detailed. My assistant and I were in awe of their photographer packet that was emailed prior to the wedding! It outlined the entire day for us perfectly. Sometimes, as a photographer, we are expected to lead the day and it can be a huge weight while trying to also document the day to the fullest extent. Having Charley and her team was like a breath of fresh air. I was able to talk through any hiccups with Charley and didn’t feel like the day was on my shoulders - her team wholeheartedly lead the entire day. If you are in the market for a wedding coordinator…. Look no further. Charley Rice is the best investment!

    Be sure to book with Charley!!

    I cannot recommend Charley enough!! She went above and beyond and it truly showed! I told her my vision with the decorations I had and she made it all come to life at our venue. She is a great listener and communicator and is there to make sure you have the best wedding day. I wasn’t stressed the morning of my wedding because I didn’t have to worry about how decor was being set up, she had it all taken care of. Once I walked into the reception area, I was speechless! It was everything I envisioned and then some. She and her husband did a great job with the execution! I keep telling her it wouldn’t have turned out the way it did without her help. She also took care of my bridesmaids with an emergency kit that morning! Charley really does it all. Make sure you book with Charley ASAP!
