Team Yellow Rose truly brought our vision to life. From our initial consultation, I knew that Isabel and I were on the same page. Isabel was creative with different ways to maintain our budget. She went above and beyond by MAKING CANDLES in the exact shade I wanted when we could not find any. Though we did not meet in person often, she was always a quick text or call away which we really valued. I can't thank this team enough for making our dream wedding a reality.

Southern Skies Events 

5.0

Durham, NC
  • Offers 3 services
  • Starts at $2,850

My name is Jen and I'm the owner of Southern Skies. The name comes from my love of seeing the NC stars on a clear night with its calmness and unfiltered beauty. I've been planning events since I was 16 and been planning professionally since 2014. My goal for Southern Skies is to plan beautiful weddings for amazing couples, help take their stress away and do it with kindness. I'm a true believer that love is love and life is a celebration that always calls for a glass of bubbly! When I'm not planning weddings, you can find me at my laptop with a glass of red wine, brunching with friends or exploring the world.

We found Southern Skies through a friend’s recommendation and we couldn’t have been happier. We worked with Jen and her assistant Laura. They designed a beautiful wedding full of personal details that we never would have thought of - like having a gelato cart for dessert as a nod to Rome, where we met. Jen was very communicative throughout the entire planning process with e-mail updates, answering our questions, and having virtual and in-person meetings. We were planning remotely and could not have pulled this off without Jen and her team. They helped connect us with our fantastic team of vendors, many of whom we probably would not have found without their help. Jen’s thorough planning and hard work made the actual wedding day stress-free and absolutely perfect. We would highly recommend using Southern Skies!

So nice to meet you! My name is Carina, and I'm your new wedding planning bestie! I started Raleigh Weddings after self-planning my own wedding. As much as I loved the process, I was also up until 3 AM the night before my wedding finalizing designs on my decor and straightening our ceremony chairs. My wedding day ended up being AMAZING (on 4 hours of sleep, no less!), but if I had known then what I do now, I would have had a planner. That's why I got certified in wedding planning and started my business in 2022: I want to help you soak in the joyful parts this process while I take on the heavy stuff for you.

Awarded Best of Zola
We worked with Carina of Raleigh Weddings, and it was easily one of the best decisions that we made. Carina has an impeccable eye for details, and through all her meetings helped us ensure that nothing was overlooked on the wedding day. She provided us with thorough check lists, email recaps, and reliable communication to help make our day perfect. Perhaps the best part about Carina is that she is so personable and brings so much joy to the wedding planning process. You could tell that she really cares about all of the people she works with. It is refreshing how authentic she is! Moreover, she really took the stress out of the process especially in the last few weeks. If it was something that she could take off our plates, she was more than happy to do it for us. I can thank her for a wonderful wedding that was flawlessly executed. I would definitely recommend working with Carina & Raleigh NC Weddings.

It’s an honor to be trusted with such a momentous occasion, surrounded by so many people who are full of joy and love!

I am not sure I even know where to begin with our experience with Andrew. I will continue to say that he is a master in this field and he has such a gift. Andrew has such a knowledge and an eye for weddings and he takes care of things without even having to be asked. His advice and opinion was invaluable to us. I was a bride who thoroughly enjoyed all aspects of wedding planning and as someone who loves the details, Andrew matched my energy and carried out my vision for the day perfectly. The things I cared about, he cared about. When we weren't sure how to handle certain aspects of the day, he came full of suggestions and ideas. He was never pushy and was a gracious reminder that it was OUR day and OUR decision. He was the perfect balance of getting things done and allowing us to enjoy the moments. Our day flowed perfectly and I never had to think about where to go or what to do next because Andrew had it all covered. Not once did a vendor or guest have to come up and ask me a question because Andrew handled it all . We got to be fully PRESENT and ENJOY our wedding day which truly is the best gift. Hiring Andrew will be the greatest investment in your wedding planning process! K&J

Words can't express how amazing Bre was to work with! Before I found Bre I was overwhelmed with ever aspect of wedding planning - I didn't even know where to start when it came to catering, flowers, signage, timelines, etc. Not only did she help this unorganized bride with planning an entire wedding, but she provided such comfort and ease for the actual wedding day. I didn't have to worry about how anything looked or how the "flow" of events would work because Bre was on top of it all. I am so thankful to have had her help for the months, days, hours and minutes of this entire process. She has been the sweetest person from the minute I inquired with her all the way through our post-wedding conversations!

We can’t thank Micah enough for guiding us through this wedding process! We booked her for the day of package, since I (bride) had a work history that overlapped with event decor. I can’t recommend booking her enough, even if you think you’ve “already got this”— she has a ton of insight and protected us from getting too stressed over anything. She went above and beyond her stated duties and we felt so fortunate. She held our hands when we needed it, but also gave us the flexibility and room to make our own creative decisions. That being said- her design instincts are broad for any theme, and absolutely gorgeous. Her team is fabulous too- very professional, detail oriented. Everything went off without a hitch, and we are so glad to be able to look back at that moment in our lives with a feeling of joy and connectedness, not stress and burnout.

My husband and I got married in March of 2023, and we used Magnolia Collective’s full-service package for our wedding at The Maxwell in Raleigh. From the very beginning, Megan and Lauren impressed us with their quick responses to our questions and their exceptional organizational skills, both in the lead-up to our wedding and on the big day itself. The initial call with Megan's team allowed us to determine if we were a good fit for each other. Megan walked us through the company, the process, and the available packages in detail. We were seeking a planner who would be totally hands-on so we could be hands-off, and Magnolia Collective was perfect for that role. Megan and Lauren were always quick to respond to our calls and emails, helping us build an incredible team of vendors for our wedding. The vendors they recommended were top-notch and aligned perfectly with our vision. Megan even attended our rental appointment and picked out everything we needed based on our likes and dislikes from our style boards. This level of personalized service was exceptional and ensured that every detail matched our vision perfectly. Best of all, Megan’s team organized and coordinated our wedding so seamlessly that any minor issues went completely unnoticed. We trusted Megan’s team with every aspect of our wedding, providing them with our preferences, and they brought our vision to life beautifully. Their list of trusted vendors and strong reputation with them made the entire process stress-free. A special shout-out to Lauren, who was fabulous! She assisted with the set-up on the day of the wedding and checked in on me regularly to ensure everything was going smoothly. She was always pleasant to email and speak with, adding a personal touch that made the experience even more enjoyable. Overall, we couldn't have been happier with Magnolia Collective. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and dedication to making our wedding day perfect were truly outstanding. We highly recommend them to any couple looking for a wedding planner who will take care of everything and allow you to enjoy your special day without any worries.

She would give her professional opinion about everything that I struggled with (I'm super indecisive), to put things into perspective. Needless to say, I was trying to plan my own wedding and my friend recommended me looking into this company because sometimes when you are trying to take on such a big task, you do not realize very small details that really matter and can make a difference. Which I am beyond pleased I went with this company, because Danielle really helped me through it.

When I'm not at a wedding, you can find me in the flower shop or doing some *light* retail therapy. I recently graduated from KSU with a B.S. in Hospitality & Event Management.

When you think of your wedding, all you can hope for is nothing will go wrong, and if it does, it will be small. When you hire Brooklyn from Brooklyn Rain brides, you can rest assured that your day will be utter perfection. throughout the wedding planning process, Brooklyn was always there for me to reach out to and ask questions and give her professional suggestions. She is beyond wise for her years and knows everything a bride could ask in hand already. Even with me being in the industry Brooklyn would ask me questions leading up to the big day I didn't even know I had, she made sure I knew when and how to get my marriage license and took care of sending it back to the clerk for us. She handled getting the rings to the correct bridal party members and made sure to grab our vow books before the ceremony so we didn't have to remember them. My guests came to me after the ceremony and said it was the best ceremony they had ever seen and I couldnt agree more it had so much emotion, romance and pure magic sprinkled in and brooklyn was incredibly calm collected and well spoken capturing my husband and Is love story perfectly. I cannot recommend her services enough, not only can she officiate the most romantic ceremony ever She is also an incredible wedding coordinator and will make sure your wedding runs smoothly allowing you to have a stress free wedding day! I literally didn't have to handle a single thing on my wedding day because she was there to handle it all. She made all the difference plus she continued to come and check in in me to see how I was doing throughout the getting ready process and has the calmest nature helping me to feel ready before I walked down the aisle. not only did she handle coordination and officiating the wedding she sprinkled in some extra magic by taking some gorgeous photos throughout the day and sent them to me the morning after the wedding so I would have a little something until my professional photos arrived! I am so utterly grateful to Brooklyn for making the best day of my life utterly perfect. She may be based in Ohio, however, my wedding was in Michigan-she has traveled all over the United States to work weddings and is so worth it, so feel free to inquire about out of state travel. Anyone who is engaged, I can't say it enough, you need a Brooklyn to help guide you in your wedding planning!

We hired Erin for our month of coordinator almost 2 years in advance. From the beginning, she was very responsive, informative, kind, and helpful. I am pretty organized, and she consistently thought of questions I didn't! I was very impressed with her demeanor with myself and the rest of our vendors. Our venue required a pre-approved coordinator, and Erin took the steps to contact them to make sure she would work out, and we are so glad she did! She did everything she said she would and then some. She reached out to all of our vendors, worked with us on our timeline (many times!), attended our rehearsal, and never got frustrated even when we had a lot going on.

Chelsea did an amazing job coordinating our wedding! My husband and I agree that we hit the jackpot when it comes to wedding planners. Chelsea promptly answered every little question we had during the planning process and made sure that we were on the same page with all of our vendors. Her many years of experience in the wedding industry became immediately clear as she suggested clever solutions to any issue that arose. We enjoyed going through the online pre-marital counseling sessions that came with her planning services, and we loved every vendor we picked from her preferred vendors list. Our big day went off without a hitch because of Chelsea. She set up every single element exactly as we pictured (which was not an easy feat, since we had a bunch of DIY setups, including a temporary tattoo station and polaroid photo booth) and seamlessly coordinated the entire day. She was also kind, fun to work with, and so sweet to all of our guests. We are very grateful to Chelsea and give her our highest recommendation!

We are your cheerleaders, your advocates, your friends, & the team that brings your love story to life. Our lead planner comes from past work in wedding photography. Combine that with our ample experience in planning events big & small, near & far, we truly know how to make any event happen.

Where do I even begin?? Savannah made my day absolutely beautiful, seamless, stress free and organized! The very idea of planning a wedding in 7 months was enough to overwhelm me and she kept me on track with what needed to be done and when. I wouldn’t have been able to do it without her! Our Hilton Head wedding was truly the best day ever and that is in big part because of her. My mother in law loved her so much she asked me if Savannah would be willing to travel to Texas for my sister in laws wedding when that happens. If you’re unsure of who to choose, Olivia Lauren is it.

At Avenue Design Studio, we began as a floral business, but quickly realized we could offer so much more to our clients. Over our 10+ years of working with couples on those special lifetime moments, we found ourselves stepping in to assist our brides and event clients with planning, vendor coordination, and overall event management. This inspired us to shift our focus and create Avenue Design Studio, a full-service event planning and design company. Whether you’re looking for full-service planning or just need assistance with specific aspects, we provide multiple packages and a la carte options to fit your needs. You dream it, we create it.

We had so many crazy things happen with our venue the weekend of the wedding. Chad and his team made it easy and stress free for me as the bride to focus on myself and my family and friends and not all the hardship that was happening that day. From the beautiful design and setup of the event, to the management of all the vendors, it was a beautiful and stress free day!
