Spellbound Events

There is a lot of heart in what we do.

I read an article a while back about the most stressful jobs, and event planner ranks right up there with police, fire. Being the wife of a firefighter, I know a thing or two about that kind of stress too.

We are no heroes or public servants - but what we offer as wedding planners is less about the service and more about the feeling. How do you quantify joy? How do you measure a peaceful heart on one of the most important days of your life as a couple?

It is hard, sometimes, to explain and justify our value. I’m not delivering a gallery of beautiful photos. I’m not preparing your hors d’oeuvres in the kitchen. But I am lifting a burden - one that is heavier than most people realize, until you don’t have the help.

We invest a lot of ourselves in this industry - we sacrifice a lot of sleep, drink way too much coffee, and miss weekend family activities. We don’t do it just for fun, we do it because we care. Deeply.

So, before you ask on your neighborhood page about a planner who “doesn’t cost an arm and a leg” think about the service we provide - not just the punch list that is included on a website about timeline creation and vendor coordination. The unseen tasks we take on to alleviate your burden, and help you have a beautiful, joy filled day with not a care in the world. The way it should be.

This crazy good weather we’re having makes me wish I was back on a boat for Anna & Drew’s Welcome Party 🤩

My opinion - there is truly no better way to introduce your guests to Charleston than on the water. Sunset cruise welcome parties are the way to go!

Before we were your wedding planners, we were just little girls with big dreams!

Real talk, should we bring back the statement bangs? They were kind of a vibe…

Moody. Romantic. Candlelit. Meghan and Markus’ wedding was an encapsulation of their love and unique design style.

The day was unhurried, intimate, and a celebration of family from near and far joining together to enjoy a candlelit evening under the stars.

We’ll share more from this special day soon but for now here is a small taste of this spectacular event ✨

Some details from an exceptional day planned by our very own Leah for an equally exceptional couple - Claire & John.

These two were incredibly gracious and warm the entire planning experience, and that graciousness and warmth was reflected in the design of their day. The table arrangements were elegant and inclusive, inviting guests to make conversation and enjoy the ambiance. And the evening flowed in a way that encouraged ease and natural transitions from one joyful moment to the next.

So fun to be able to be a part of such a romantic day ✨

Throwing it back to Julia & Champs special day at the Gadsden House - this was the perfect example of how important it is to have a confident and capable team of vendors onsite at your event!

The ceremony and dinner were hosted in the same area, and required a quick “flip” during the one hour cocktail hour. Our team, the florist, and the venue teamed up to pull it all together and transform the space.

On average, about 50% of our weddings require some kind of “flip” - just something to think about as all of you newly engaged couples start interviewing vendors for your special day!
