About Raleigh Weddings

Raleigh Weddings

We are so excited to meet you! We're Raleigh Weddings, a wedding planning and coordination team based right in the heart of North Carolina (but celebrating love everywhere)! Since 2022, we have provided wedding planning and coordination services for all types of different days, couples, and love stories. We approach every element of your wedding day thinking about the intention and story behind it - if it's not reflective of you or your love, then why the heck do it? More than just another vendor, we are your friends, your advocates, your shoulders to lean on. We can't wait to make your "best day ever" exactly that (and more).

In short: supporting you, getting to really know you, and making sure your day is reflective of you are our top priorities. We place a lot of emphasis on learning the nuances of your personalities and your love story, because that's what helps us go above and beyond for you.

In three words: Fun, Honest, Supportive

    Raleigh Weddings was an incredible wedding planning team to work with. They were great communicators throughout the entire process, always keeping us informed and on top of things. Their quality of work and preparation was top-notch - we didn't have to worry about a single detail on our wedding day. In fact, we were actually ahead of schedule thanks to their planning. Raleigh Weddings truly made our special day stress-free and unforgettable. We highly recommend them, and in particular, Ally Carpenter, to any couple looking for a professional, reliable, and experienced wedding planning team.

    Carina was hands down the best decision my now husband and I made while planning our wedding. She is warm, kind, thoughtful, resourceful and attentive. She did an incredible job at understanding our vision and finding the perfect vendors for us. Not only did she care about planning our wedding but she also cared about us. The most challenging part about planning our wedding was the fact that we live halfway across the country. Carina accommodated our schedules and the time difference effortlessly and kept us in constant communication. Working with Carina never felt like work, it felt like chatting with an old friend. Carina executed our wedding day with such ease and grace. When emotions were heightened, Carina was the calm in the storm. Because of her professionalism and expertise, our wedding day went by so smoothly and my husband and I, as well as our family and wedding party, didn’t have a single worry. Carina is an incredibly talented wedding planner and now, friend. What sets her apart from others is her personalization, dedication and genuine heart. We are so thankful that we found Carina. Anyone would be lucky to work with such a phenomenal human being.

    Hiring a wedding planner is one of the first decisions we made during the wedding planning process. We needed a planner that knows how to stand on business and deal with logistics for a ginormous crowd (300), but also be someone that can vibe with us because they'll be dealing with all our shenanigans during the planning process on the day of the wedding. We went through a handful of wedding planner consultations before we met with Carina and after meeting her - it was definitely wedding-planner-love at first sight! And it was the best decision we made! During the year long planning process, Carina was able to lay out the whole process so we never felt rushed. She also designed our whole wedding beautifully, because neither I nor my now husband have a single artistic bone in our body. Aside from her impeccable planning skills, she is just a delightful person to be around who sincerely just loves what she does and bringing her couples vision to life (while staying reasonably under budget). She took what is usually a stressful process and made it as fun as you can make wedding planning. My now husband and I didn't think there was any way we could have our 300 Vietnamese wedding without any major bumps (just due to the sheer number of people), but thanks to Carina and her wedding magic, we had the most beautiful perfect day! We couldn't have had our perfect day without her!

    Oh where to even start. If you’re engaged and looking for the best wedding planner on the planet, you’ve found her. Carina is by far the most amazing choice we made for our wedding. I don’t know how we would have even planned our wedding without her. Carina is so so talented. She always had everything handled and I didn’t have to worry about a thing! Any time I was stressed or had a question about what we needed to do, she would have already had it done and been three steps ahead. Our meetings honestly felt like going out to lunch with a close friend. I could always count on her to have everything handled and to be there if I needed anything at all. I gained a life long friend and I couldn’t be happier!! Thank you so much Carina for making our day magical and perfectly curating my vision for my fairytail wedding. If I could give you ten million stars I would 3
