I cannot say enough amazing things about working with Chynna! She was truly a lifesaver throughout the whole wedding planning process. She kept me on track in such a calm, encouraging way and somehow always made me feel ahead of the game instead of stressed or overwhelmed. She was my go-to sounding board for everything, from the big decisions down to the tiniest details, and always had the best advice. Most importantly, she worked so hard to bring my vision to life, and seeing it all come together on our wedding day was beyond anything I could have imagined. I honestly couldn’t have done it without her, and I’m so grateful for all the love and energy she put into making our day so special. Highly, highly recommend!

Theresa Marcus, owner of Venue Decor and More, transformed our daughter's dream of a fairytale wedding into a breathtaking reality. We began planning the “Big Day” about 16 months out. From the start, Theresa's ideas only enhanced our own, and her ongoing communication with us was timely, organized and professional. She really listened to our vision for the wedding and reception, and brought the outdoor celebration at Waterstone to life in a stunning way. Theresa transformed the waterside venue, using its a 70-foot waterfall as the backdrop, into the storybook wedding we all imagined. She perfectly captured the woodsy, fairytale vibe -- from the ceremony aisle lined with lanterns, ferns and rose petals, to the rustic arbor covered with whimsical purple-and-sage spring flowers strewn across a sweeping swag, with a meandering meadow at the water’s edge…to the reception featuring vintage dishware and glassware in romantic shades of purple and green on moss-covered tables topped with an assortment of candelabra and fairy lights. Our guests were blown away by the beauty of the space, and we couldn't have been happier with Theresa’s work. We highly recommend her to any couple looking to create a truly magical wedding experience.

I initially did not think I needed a wedding coordinator for my wedding, but watching Brittney's professionalism, organization, coordination, and level of service showed I NEEDED her for my big day! I asked her (after my friend's wedding was over) if she was available for my date and she said YES!

From planning, coordination with vendors, the exceptional timeline she created, etc., she was there every step of the way.

All couples need Dana and her team with Thyme & Details for their big day. We hired Dana as a day of coordinator but she is so much more than that. She went to countless vendor meeting and kept track of all of my overly detailed instructions to make sure each piece of our day (timeline, vendor contracts, etc) worked with those details. When the venue dropped the ball, others got details wrong, or vendors fell through, Dana was always a step ahead and came up with even better solutions than our original plans. Dana really knows the ins and outs of organizing a wedding, is in tune with the Columbus wedding scene, and has incredibly valuable connections. Overall we were blown away by Dana and her team’s professionalism and dedication to our wedding. Dana’s communications were always prompt, detailed, and thorough every step of the way, making the planning process a breeze. She lead our rehearsal too which is exactly what we needed. Her team also went above and beyond the day-of to ensure every aspect of our special day was executed flawlessly.

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.

Sabrina at Lucky Day Events was the wedding planner of my dreams. From the very start, she stood out of all of the wedding planners by making her approach so personable. Once my husband and I hired Lucky Day Events, Sabrina made our experience customized based on our needs, leading us to feel such an ease throughout the entire wedding planning process. When people ask me how we seemed so calm during wedding planning, we attribute so much of that to Lucky Day. We didn't worry, always had peace of mind, and felt very heard and seen by her planning. The vision we wanted with our sentimentality, overall energy we wanted to create throughout the entire wedding, to every detail with the aesthetic for flower, videographer, photographer vendors, and more, Sabrina understood and delivered. Day of our wedding both my husband and I felt such ease due to Sabrina’s expertise handling all of the details and overseeing everything, and we were so deeply happy with how everything felt and looked! We truly thank you from the depths of our heart, Sabrina! It was more than planning, you brought an experience for us that we will always cherish looking back on wedding planning and our special day.

There is so much detail in her work - lists and master timeline that ensured we were on time with our tasks. On the day, she coordinated everything and I did not have to worry about the flow of the wedding. It was a HUGE success and everyone loved it -my husband and I enjoyed ourselves so much without any worry- we can only thank Jena for ensuring everything went smoothly. I highly recommend working with Jena - it was one of the best decisions we made!

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.
