About Magnolia Affairs

Karina Crockett

Planner & Designer

We believe your wedding planning journey should be just as magical as your big day. When you work with us, you’ll collaborate directly with Karina, the owner, who will guide you through every step of the planning process with expertise, creativity, and a passion for bringing your vision to life. We take a team-oriented, collaborative approach, working closely with all of your wedding vendors to ensure a seamless experience.

As a year round, on island resident, we know the unique requirements this island has. In addition, my personal experience previously working for a caterer, wedding venue and freelancing for florists and photographers on the side give me greater understanding of what each vendor needs to succeed. With a team approach on a wedding weekend we create an unforgettable experience for the couple and their guests allowing each vendor to shine!

In three words: Collaborative, Positive, Resourceful

Description

We offer a set cost, tiered planning fee based on overall spend. We find these tiers, starting at up to 350k total spend, are in line with overall increased production requirements. When compared to percentage based fees this means you arent paying more money because of you have peonies vs roses but a significant increase in either number of events or production design.

    Could not have done it without Karina

    Karina and her team provided all of the support for our wedding day. We realized we only want to do this once, so Magnolia Affairs' expertise, knowledge, and planning were exactly what we needed to create our ideal wedding weekend vibes. Without feeling overly calculated, the day and events leading up to it unfolded seamlessly and allowed us to sit back and relax once decisions were made. It was a privilege to have a wedding, and Magnolia Affairs can customize their approach based on your needs while exceeding the standards of professionalism, and meeting all of our communication needs. Planning a wedding should be an enjoyable process celebrating the important things to a couple and their family, and that's exactly what our experience was with Magnolia Affairs.

    Mother of the Bride

    Working with Karina at Magnolia Affairs was a game-changer for our wedding planning. She responded to our questions quickly and always had thoughtful answers that showed how deeply she understood our vision. Karina's attention to detail was second to none—she thought through every element so we didn't have to worry about anything on the big day. Her calm presence and encouraging attitude made the entire planning process feel manageable and even enjoyable. Because she handled all the logistics with such precision, I was able to actually be present and soak in our wedding day instead of stressing about what might go wrong. We can't recommend Karina and Magnolia Affairs enough.

    More than a wedding planner!

    Karina was an absolute dream to work with from start to finish. Her communication style is easygoing, friendly, and incredibly attentive—you always feel heard, supported, and completely at ease throughout the process. Her work is exceptionally detailed and thorough, and it’s clear how much she genuinely cares about her couples and their experience. Nothing slips through the cracks, and every decision feels intentional and well thought out. One of the most impressive examples of her dedication was when we decided to move our wedding up by a full day to take advantage of a perfect blue-sky forecast. Karina truly moved heaven and earth to make it happen, handling all the logistics seamlessly and without a hint of stress on our end. It felt effortless to us, which is a testament to how hard she was working behind the scenes. Beyond her professionalism, Karina is someone we have considered a friend since shortly after hiring her. We would recommend her services to any couple without hesitation—she goes above and beyond in every possible way!

We book one wedding a weekend, and a maximum of 10 weddings a year.
All of your planning will take place directly with Karina. I have a weekend "day of team" who joins me in bringing your vision to life and supporting you and your families.
As much time as you need. I dont track hours or number of meetings.
