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 had the BEST time planning our wedding day with Magnolia Collective (MC). We unfortunately had some wedding venue "drama" along the way, and MC was so professional and helped address any concerns we had. I knew our wedding day was going to run like a well oiled machine, and I truly can't believe how perfect the day was. We did the partial planning package and it was definitely worth having that extra bit of planning support and onsite vendor visits. Highly recommend! :)

I’m Ariana Dolan—wedding day coordinator, timeline guru, and your go-to calm presence when things get a little hectic. I've been coordinating weddings for over 12 years, ever since planning my own wedding in 2013. Over the years, I’ve had the joy of overseeing so many brides walk down the aisle—whether in grand cathedrals or beautifully crafted backyard celebrations. I currently reside in Durham, North Carolina, where I live with my husband and four children.

The Dancing Tulip Events was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. Arianna demonstrated an organized, positive, and supportive communication style throughout the entire planning process. The quality of their work was amazing - she is hardworking, and highly collaborative. She took care of coordinating all of our vendors, ran our entire wedding rehearsal, and arrived early on the day-of to set everything up before our guests arrived. She made sure I felt relaxed and I knew everything was going to be taken care of because of Ariana! The Dancing Tulip Events was the perfect point of contact for us both before and during our wedding day, ensuring everything ran smoothly from start to finish. I would highly recommend them to any couple planning their special day.

Awarded Best of Zola
Brianna was such a pleasure to work with. I hired her for her day-of coordination as I planned my wedding myself. It was a small, pretty minimalist wedding with 40 guests, but having Brianna coordinate with the vendors, and lead the rehearsal and wedding day was a huge relief during a stressful planning process. She was flexible with helping us plan our timeline earlier than usual and asked us all of the questions that wouldn’t have ever occurred to me. She was super supportive and communicative and helped find me vendors and just so patient with us. Scheduling meetings through her website was a breeze! Being able to see her availability without going back and forth or waiting for confirmations was super helpful. Brianna was a huge help when we learned we couldn’t store our decor at the venue the day before, so after the rehearsal at the venue, she stashed all the decor in her car. The day of our wedding, Brianna and her assistant put the dinner tables exactly as I had shown her, but I was really impressed with how she used our leftover decor for our guestbook table, gift table, and even the bar! It all felt really cohesive and I was impressed by her creativity and her ability to improvise. Brianna was so reassuring and on top of everything and she really made our day run as smoothly as possible!

Awarded Best of Zola
Jasmine and Shayla were the wedding coordinators of our dreams! Salt & Light's month-of coordination package was perfect for our Durham wedding, which we planned in 8 months (March to November). After picking a venue, booking vendors, ordering décor and invitations, and making so many other choices over the course of the previous 7 months, it was amazing to have these two ladies come in right as we were hitting our wall of exhaustion and overwhelm in the final month before our big day. Putting together a wedding is a sprawling project with so many little details involved, and it can be easy for things to slip through the cracks, even for meticulous/anxious planners like me! Thank goodness for Shayla and Jasmine's experience, expertise, and attention to fine points--they had their eyes on every little thing, and it was so comforting to us to know the two of them had it covered so we didn't have to worry about the small stuff. They gently guided us through making decisions we didn't even know we needed to make, and helped us think through all the moving parts of the wedding day and how the various elements of our plans worked together (this was especially crucial when conceptualizing how our various vendors' needs would weave together into one cohesive schedule). On the day of our wedding, and in the days after, we had several family members and friends comment on how wonderful our coordinators were, and what an excellent job they had done at bringing our wedding to life. In addition to their competence, confidence and professionalism, Jasmine and Shayla are also deeply kind and caring people. They were rooting for us and advocating for our needs throughout those final weeks, through our wedding day, and beyond. The two of them were genuinely invested in our story, our new marriage and our future, and their enthusiasm for making our special event come together was palpable. It was a true pleasure and a privilege to work with these ladies to make the most important day of our lives a success, and we would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone.

I've always had a deep passion for organizing and planning which is why I chose to start my own Event Planning business. I knew at a young age being a Special Events/Wedding Planner is a dream I wanted to pursue.

We met Jackie and Madison at the NC Bridal and Wedding Expo in Raleigh in 2023. My daughter's wedding day was November of this year, 2024. From the very moment we met them, it was 100% authenticity, practicality, a smart approach, kindness, and just enough edge required to pull off an event of such importance. As we selected them and continued our journey together, the level of communication, organization, attention to detail, and their ability to advocate with professionalism were ever-present as their creative ideas just flowed with each circumstance we encountered. Jackie and Madison were made for planning with families/individuals in preparing and experiencing the activities associated with one of the most important decisions ever made in life...marriage. Jackie was resourceful, stayed connected, guided along the way, and on the days of the rehearsal and of the wedding, both she and Madison worked tirelessly to create beautiful, "everlasting moments" for my daughter and her new husband to remember. They filtered the obstacles, and stood in the gap to ensure the wishes and dreams of the bride and groom for that day were met. That was the most important. There is so much more we could say to endorse Everlasting Moments, but you can clearly read that hiring Jackie and Madison to plan and see through to the success of your wedding or any event is an investment worth making, as they invest in you! They are now family!

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 were required to use Southern Skies Events by our venue, and it was honestly one of the best things to happen to us during the whole wedding planning process. Right off the bat we were able to utilize them through email and they answered all my questions quickly and helped so much. And then we were matched Sarah.... best wedding planner and day of coordinator ever! Sarah knew what I needed before I even knew it myself. She was incredibly helpful during the three months we worked together up until the big day, and even took it upon herself to go and pick up our wedding cake when there was a major miscommunication on the day of. You know you have a great planner whenever none of the guests, not even the groom, know there's any sort of mishap the day of. One of my favorite memories was right before my outfit change, I was hot and my feet hurt, and just sat down for a moment in the bridal suite to decompress. Before I knew it, Sarah was there helping me out of my heels. Like I said, she knew what I needed before I even knew it myself. 100000% would recommend

I’m the lead planner behind M&J Weddings and Events, and I’m passionate about creating celebrations that feel effortless, personal, and beautifully organized. With years of experience and a calm, detail-driven approach, I guide couples through the planning process with clarity, support, and genuine care. My goal is simple: make your wedding day seamless so you can be fully present for the moments that matter.

Working alongside Marissa Shattuck has been such an absolute blast. She has a gift for turning a bride’s big day into a stress-free fairy tale, and getting to help her bring those moments to life has been nothing short of inspiring. Marissa’s eye for detail, calm presence, and genuine passion for creating unforgettable wedding days shine through in everything she does. Watching her work—guiding brides, solving problems before they ever arise, and keeping the day flowing seamlessly—has shown me just how special she is at what she does. If you want a coordinator who truly cares, who brings joy into every room, and who transforms wedding days into magical, effortless experiences… Marissa is the one.
