TL;DR: If you're questioning a wedding planner. You found your person in Shelby. She will be your teammate and advocate. Let me start by saying 5 stars is not enough for Shelby. What she was able to do over the course of a few months and the day of our wedding, and even after, is no short than a miracle. My aunt said it best, "She was just meant to do this job", and it shines through every conversation, detail, and edge she was able to walk me back from. I contacted Shelby originally for a month of coordinator. Soon after, I realized even for a type A project manager, I was in over my head planning an Alabama wedding from Philadelphia, PA. She walked me through everything and that's when I said I need her on my team and I need her skills now for everything between today and the wedding day. The best decision I made through the process (debatably even more so than saying yes to my husband) was hiring Shelby. She made the transition from what I prepped and thought I had under control to the most magical day I could imagine. I hired her about 5 months before the wedding. She always made me a priority no matter the occasion or time. I genuinely had the best wedding planner and gained a friend along the way. I am not exaggerating when I say, I could not have done this without her.

I can't say enough good things about our wedding coordinator Kate and her assistant! From start to finish, Kate was incredibly organized, attentive, and professional. She took all the stress out of planning and made sure every detail was perfect. From helping me with my timeline, vendor communication, running our rehearsal, and setting up and breaking down on our wedding day she did it all! Our big day went off without a hitch, and it was all thanks to their hard work and dedication. Highly recommend!

I believe every wedding should feel deeply personal, beautifully designed, & effortlessly executed. My approach blends thoughtful planning with intentional design, ensuring that every detail reflects your story while creating a seamless, elevated experience for you & your guests. As both your creative partner & logistical guide, I’m here to make the process feel clear, collaborative, & genuinely exciting.

Awarded Best of Zola
The KnightCo. Events team was absolutely incredible from the beginning to the end. My venue required us to have a coordinator, but I was really skeptical about whether I needed one. Now that I've gone through the entire process, I can confidently say yes, you do need one, and yes, it should be KnightCo. Events! Chynna was always available to answer my questions in the months leading up to my destination wedding. She was actively engaged in every meeting with our venue, even the early morning ones with a 3 hour time difference. Once the package officially kicked in 6 weeks out, KCE took over all of the communication with vendors, which allowed me to take a break from the planning. It was hard for me to give up control, but it was ultimately worth it, especially as we got closer to the wedding day. When one of our vendors was 2 hours late on the day of the wedding, Chynna stepped in and was able to clear everything up within minutes of me notifying her. Chynna felt like another one of my best friends on the wedding day—there to offer me lipstick, a makeup pad, stain remover... she had literally anything I could need and offered it before I even knew that I needed it! Everything stayed on schedule and she checked in with us often but discreetly to make sure we had everything we needed. And the next day as we were already buzzing with excitement, she surprised us with a behind the scenes gallery of photos and videos that allowed us to relive our perfect day. I can't say enough great things about this team. Absolutely no regrets about booking with KnightCo. Events!

Theresa was in charge of making things go smoothly and took care of any problem that happened . She kept anything upsetting from the bride. She also kept things moving in an orderly manner. We never wondered what we were suppose to do . She kept us on task and took care of everything as it came. We weren’t aware of her getting the grounds mowed and when time came and it wasn’t. She took care of it. She seemed like family by be the end of the two days. She was such a nice person and so good at what she does. She was supportive, and paid attention to every detail. She used her china and glassware at the reception and it was gorgeous . She took a plain room and made it look beautiful. My favorite thing she did was make sure the pictures went smoothly and quickly. There was no wasted time at all. There wasn’t one thing that would keep me from hiring her again. The wedding was perfect. She was great. She was smart and on top of things. I would give her the highest of ratings.

Bold & Belle Designs and Events were an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, their communication was excellent and they were always on time, open, knowledgeable, and very responsive to any questions or concerns we had. The quality of their work and the value they provided was outstanding. Their pricing was reasonable, and they consistently went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. They handled all of our vendor relationships with ease and kept the entire day on track, allowing us to simply enjoy the moment. They provide assistance for wifi when our wifi stopped working. Our bartender became Ill during our wedding and Cece was able to step in and assist since she has a Bartending license which was a life saver as well as called another bartender who showed up without hesitation! The caterer we hired didn't add cake cutting in so we thought we would have to do it ourselves but no, Bold & Belle stepped in and handled it for us even having back up supplies of plates and forks for us to use and didn't charge is extra. We recommend Bold & Belle Designs and Events highly enough for any couple planning their dream wedding.

Awarded Best of Zola
Where do I even begin? Liz is truly a one of a kind human being. I don’t think I could ever fully put into words how exceptional she is. Her warm, genuine personality, constant professionalism, and humble, grounded presence made every part of the planning process feel supported, organized, and despite my natural overthinking stress. We didn’t originally plan on hiring a wedding planner. But about nine months out, I quickly realized I needed help. Choosing Liz ended up being one of the best decisions we made. She guided us through every detail with ease and confidence. Not only did she help manage our entire wedding, but she also planned our honeymoon, which turned out to be beyond anything we ever could have imagined. One of our top activities in Aruba opened for reservations the day after our wedding, and Liz booked it immediately that morning to get us in. She booked all activities and restaurants for us. Anytime I had a question, which was often, she responded within minutes or simply called me. She made everything fun, approachable, and stress-free. She kept detailed tabs on every task and ensured nothing slipped through the cracks. Even when I had the majority of vendors and plans in place, she refined everything with such precision. She understood my personality and how overwhelmed I can get, even when things are technically “done,” and she guided me through everything with patience and grace. The week of the wedding, she checked in frequently. On the day of, she was phenomenal. Every detail was set up exactly how we envisioned it. Labeling bins and décor helped her and her assistant move seamlessly, and I’m so grateful because she executed our entire moody/vintage aesthetic vision flawlessly. Two days before the wedding, when I couldn’t find greenery anywhere, Liz made one or two calls and found it instantly. I’ll never forget when I urgently needed our honeymoon flight information for our rental car info and she literally pulled over on the highway to send it to me. That is who she is, someone who goes above and beyond in ways most people wouldn’t even consider. Her pricing is more than fair, and her service is worth every single penny. Whether you need full-service planning or just check-ins, she adapts to exactly what you need. I had most things planned, but still had countless details and small several questions lol. No matter how minor or silly they felt, she always responded with kindness and expertise. Our FaceTime meetings became a highlight of the planning process. Occasionally, her pups or her daughter would pop into the frame, making everything feel personal-not like a business transaction, but like talking to a friend who genuinely cared about us and our day. Liz is an amazing planner, but she is an even better human. Humble, compassionate, creative, organized, and incredibly knowledgeable, especially with florals. I made my own centerpieces, and with her guidance, they turned out exactly how I imagined. Russell and I are endlessly grateful she was part of our wedding. I could cry thinking about how much she did for us. Liz, thank you for making our day perfect. Thank you for your dedication, your heart, your time, and your incredible talent. We truly could not have done any of this without you. No wedding turns out perfect, but everything Liz was involved with/in charge of - was. We are forever thankful for her.

Black Orchid Events is a local WNC event production company specializing in event planning, bar and event staffing in and around Asheville, Hendersonville, Brevard, Highland, Cashiers, and beyond. Based in Western North Carolina we have extensive knowledge and experience in the area. Our team has long-standing relationships with local vendors, venues, breweries, restaurants, and attractions. We can help you find the perfect vendor team to plan an unforgettable event that fits your budget and personal style.

If you're reading this and trying to decide on bar services or staffing for your event, STOP LOOKING! THIS IS THE ONE! Heidi and Tristen are the most wonderful, creative, and kind people and they make delicious drinks to boot! After finding Black Orchid on our wedding planner's vendor shortlist, I am so, so happy we chose Black Orchid for our wedding. Even before we signed a contract, Heidi was so helpful in sharing experience and industry knowledge - my partner has worked in the restaurant industry and has been an amateur cocktail connoisseur since COVID times, and he felt so comfortable in their first meeting that we booked them immediately. Heidi was enthusiastic about planning our signature cocktails alongside us - even making a black walnut syrup from her own tree to use in our old-fashioned AND juicing carrots for my gin cocktail!! Helene hit a month before our scheduled wedding date, and (second to our venue - s/o Twisty Maple!!) Black Orchid was the vendor we knew we couldn't move forward without. Luckily, after communication was re-established, Heidi was flexible and we worked with her to reschedule. Once our second date got closer, my partner and I visited WNC to get back into the wedding spirit and Heidi and Tristen *came to our AirBnB* to sample our signature cocktails. They became fast friends and we chatted for hours! On our wedding day, it felt so special to have both Tristen and Heidi (as well as their staff) working our event. Professional and poised, they brought the perfect calm energy that we wanted to our small and personal celebration. I highly recommend reaching out to Black Orchid for your event. You won't regret it. Tell them Jade and Sam sent ya!

Leshelle was incredible and truly made the wedding of our dreams come to life! We had a relatively short timeline from when we reached out until the big day AND we live outside of NYC now so were planning remotely, but Leshelle helped keep us on track and manage deadlines. She provided several strong recommendations for vendors and helped us vet the ones we found ourselves. As we got closer to the day, she took over full management of vendor communications and helped troubleshoot and provide options for a problematic vendor last minute a week before the wedding. The day of the wedding Leshelle, was right in the actions ensuring all the vendors strictly adhered to our time schedule. Our wedding day couldn’t have gone smoother and that is a direct reflection of Leshelle’s actions. Even more than that we felt like we had a true friend and ally during the whole process as time and time again, Leshelle acted as both a sounding board and steady hand that provided reassurance during the most stressful times of planning. Our only regret is that we didn’t take advantage of her full planning service package!

At Destination 2 I Do, we plan destination weddings in Mexico and the Caribbean with no planning fee to you as we are paid directly by our trusted resort partners. This allows us to fully focus on creating seamless, elevated experiences while securing exclusive perks, upgrades, and a dedicated onsite coordinator for you. In addition to our destination focus, we also offer other levels of wedding planning within the US for an additional fee and honeymoon planning and room blocks are included. As certified wedding planners and travel agents, we handle every detail so you can celebrate confidently and enjoy every moment of your wedding journey.

If you are considering a Caribbean wedding, Destination 2 I Do is an amazing choice. The entire planning process was organized, clear, and stress free. Communication was consistent, and we always felt confident knowing everything was handled. A huge bonus was that they our tracked flights which gave us peace of mind leading up to the wedding. Our wedding day was beautiful and ran smoothly, and we never had to worry about logistics. They never charged us any wedding planning fees and we still received a high level of support which was truly a win. We highly recommend Destination 2 I Do.

We truly can't express how thankful we are to have used W Events and to have Myryrah as our lead! We worked with her and the team for over a year to help us plan the perfect weekend and she really exceeded all our expectations! She really listened and made every request and vision come to life every step of the way and helped us find the perfect vendors to align with all our ideas! Myryrah would always respond to my texts in a timely and meaningful way no matter when it was or how little the detail it was about! Our wedding weekend couldn't have been more stress-free and absolutely perfect due to all their behind the scenes work that her and her team did! We are so lucky that we not only had the best weekend of our lives, but we also gained a friend through the process!! In short, we truly could not recommend them more!

Kaila was the best planner to work with on our wedding day! We booked her for full service planning, as we planned our 40 person wedding within a 1.5month notice. Kaila contracted all vendors, designed and styled the event, took control of all invitations and sign production etc. Truly, even weeks after the wedding I still have guests talking about how this was the best wedding ever! If you are looking for a luxury, sophisticated planner that not only understands design but has a high end palette when it comes to food and wine pairings for an unbelievable menu presentation ... She is your go to! I would recommend her to anyone!

Congratulations, you’re engaged! We are so honored to work with couples from all walks of life to create a day that is uniquely you. On your wedding day, you’ll have a team to advocate for you, be by your side and help you pull off a celebration that’s one to remember.

We hired Michelle Knutson for our November 2025 Palm Springs wedding and truly could not be happier with our experience. We had a fairly small event, so we went with the day-of-coordinator package. Michelle truly went above and beyond just the day-of coordinating. She coordinated a couple intros zooms, got in touch with our venue and all of our vendors beforehand and brought us solutions when we realized we were going to be rained on. The day of she was a straight shooter - direct and ran a tight ship. But she was also warm, friendly and upbeat. Her assistant even took care of my dog for me and made sure he was fed and walked! We are forever grateful to her and her team for making our day so special. 10/10 recommend!
