She came with me to dress fittings, and did exactly what I wanted. They do everything from catering, to DJ, decorations, and everything can be customized! I went to what feels like a million other wedding planners in the area and they all wanted to charge me thousands and thousands of dollars. Brides On A Budget was at least 75% cheaper than anywhere else in the Wilmington/Raleigh area! Not only were they cheaper, but I think my wedding was much prettier than what anyone else wanted. Thanks Brides On A Budget....

One of the best things they do is budget bouquets for the Bridesmaids (I was so worried I'd be spending a ton on them)! They worked out so well and looked beautiful!!! Fiore also worked with High Performance Lighting to create a beautiful hanging piece above our dance floor. Our guests are still raving about how beautiful and spectacular it looked! The team at Fiore are all super friendly, quick to answer emails, and helped me throughout the entire process! I really let them do the work and trusted they had it down! I never was stressed or worried about what my flowers would look like as I was confident in our conversation about design! would recommend Fiore over and over again!!!!

They were looking at every possible angle to make sure the wedding went off without a hitch. At one point, I saw the wedding coordinator walk out to the street to motion a traveling bar cart to lower their singing as the wedding was going on. An Indian man, I didn't catch his name, was routinely walking around and asking everyone if there was anything they needed and insuring everyone was having a great time. He was super personable. The bartenders made excellent drinks and smiled the whole time. Good for them because my face would hurt from smiling that much. The event space itself, perfect for a small wedding, was beautiful and cozy and clean. I would definitely recommend hosting any event here!
