So many changes had to be made multiple times, and I am amazed by how smoothly things ran anyways on my wedding day. Tara's bubbly and upbeat personality was also such a help to me during an incredibly stressful time of changes. My parents also were absolutely thrilled with her and all of the planner's help. In addition, she did a great job pulling things together that I left very open ended (I frequently said things like, can we just make it like, nice, and wedding ish? And they came out fabulous!) In the end our Wedding was beautiful and memorable in a good way despite world circumstances. Thanks again to Premier Party Planners!

She gave her input on different ideas and worked within our budget. My Husband and I didn't stress about anything. I felt like the attention she gave me that I was the only bride she was dealing with. She kept me updated with her conversations with other vendors.

I am so happy Nicole planned my reception, and she will be used again. Obviously, not for another wedding of mine, but future showers and parties.

I cannot say enough good things about Jennifer. She was accommodating and helpful throughout the…read moreentire wedding planning process, was always punctual for meetings, and responsive via email and text message. She even texted me on the day of my wedding and told me the weather was predicted to be nice enough for the outdoor garden ceremony! Rehearsal, the day before the wedding, was very organized and ran efficiently. Jennifer was on top of everything and executed everything seamlessly on my wedding day, as well. She handled a potentially crisis situation with the flowers with ease and I never even know about it until after the wedding was over. She communicated with all my vendors and organized an extremely detailed timeline for everyone to follow on the wedding day, which made everything go so smoothly. She came by and checked on us periodically throughout the wedding reception to ensure we had everything we wanted to eat and drink. She also packed us a "to go" box for us to eat later on! I can honestly say that my wedding day was absolutely perfectly in every way and a lot of that was because of Jennifer. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs a wedding planner!

My husband and I have nothing but great things to say about Rev Ron. I was looking for an officiant…read morethat spoke with passion and purpose, not flashy and entertaining. He spoke very clearly and was extremely helpful before, during and after the wedding! We met in person to properly interview him and understand his style. He came and completely reassured us that he would not only be prepared, but have a printed backup just in case. In addition, he offered some very unique ideas to make our wedding special and memorable which it was. Lastly, he sent us a copy of the script which let me know exactly what was going to be said. It was perfect. I am a very detail-oriented person so to have someone who was incredibly prepared and professional was more than I could have asked for.

There are no words to describe how incredible Reverend Ron was before, during, and after our…read morewedding. We met with him a few months before our ceremony and he walked us through the whole process. We gave him vows that we wrote and personalized the ceremony with a family heirloom unity candle. He was always quick to respond to any emailed questions we had. He expertly guided our family through the rehearsal and made sure our ceremony was a dream come true. Reverend Ron's years of experience showed in his advice, tips, and professionalism. His prices are also very budget friendly, which was important to our extremely-low-budget plans. I'm going to recommend him to all of my and my husband's siblings if their ceremonies end up happening in the Raleigh area. Any couple would be lucky to have him officiate their wedding!

The perfect place to have your wedding!…read more White Dove Chapel is the perfect place to have your wedding! The chapel is private, quaint, and beautiful. Brigitte is so nice and will direct you through what you need to do for the ceremony. She is very experienced and has been doing this for many years. She beats any wedding planner out there when it comes to directing what to do for the ceremony! Everything is clean and well organized. There is a place for the bride to get dressed. The space is large enough for bridesmaids to get dressed also and there are two bathrooms. It's so cool knowing you're getting married in a part of history that has been maintains properly by people who respect it. Brigitte is very knowledgeable about historical events and the history of the chapel so it was really interesting getting to know her and conversing with her. Overall, I would 100% recommend having your wedding here! It's a gorgeous place and you'll remember it forever!

I remember the first time that I called Meagan at Magnolia Grove weddings - I knew from the start…read morethat she was someone very special and I felt incredibly lucky that she was available on my date of April 4, 2020. I knew she was good at her job- I had seen her work and she planned a friend's wedding, but I didn't realize how incredible she actually was - not only as a professional, but also as what a wonderful person and friend. During our initial conversation and meeting, neither of us anticipated how drastic the world was going to change, and I was so excited about Meagan's ability to translate my messy thoughts into a wedding more beautiful and special than beyond my craziest imagination (and within my budget!) The storyboard she created took all the elements that I talked about and pintrested, and built the most beautifully personalized dream wedding. Dave and I had our dream venue secured and Meagan pretty much took care of the rest. She provided recommendations on lighting, DJ and flowers, all who were easy to work with, accommodating and nice. Her team designed personalized octopus invitations and matching rehearsal dinner invites and managed all of RSVPs for both the wedding and the rehearsal dinner. Beyond the management of the wedding, she took the time to get to know me - she met and understood the dynamics of my relationship and friendships, what makes me tick (cake), and even attended my bachelorette party. She answered my crazy texts and phone calls with positivity and calmness and never let me stress out. As we continued to get closer to the date, we felt confident that in just a few short weeks, we were going to have our dream wedding. And then COVID-19 happened. I think I was the first client of Meagan's to want to postpone - it was early - before the quarantine, back when kids were still in school and life was normal. I remember calling her and going back and forth on what to do - I had even gotten a case of hand sanitizer just in case we needed them at the wedding... oh how naive we were. We made the decision to postpone - hoping that things would be better in the fall. Meagan jumped into action, secured the venue for September and Every. Single. Vendor - flowers, lighting, DJ, food, linens, cake. She did it all so I didn't have to, all while standing by my side while I mourned the day and drank wine. The pandemic has not gotten any better, and we have made the decision to postpone our September wedding, which has resulted in us losing our venue. Once again, Meagan has stepped in to help us weigh our options and is helping move forward. I could not be more thankful to have Meagan and the Magnolia Grove Weddings team on my side and standing with me through this process. There are truly no words to express my gratitude and admiration for the support I have been provided and I cannot thank Meagan enough for everything she has done and continues to do.

Addie and Michael are worth their weight in gold…read more We were new to Raleigh while planning our wedding and Addie was full of the information we were looking for. Addie knows every single person, vendor, and reputation in the NC wedding world. She will tell you why they will and why they won't work for you- and give you honest direction. She is reputable and people know her name for the right reasons. We considered it insurance in our investment when we realized that every vendor we contacted after her had nothing but good things to say. Networking really matters and there were more than a handful of times where working with Addie significantly benefitted us when it came to business doings with other vendors. Addie is assertive, personable, likable, directive, organized, and timely. She excels as a wedding planner. Her problem-solving skills are untouched. She shrinks everything to size and comes up with solutions and backup plans on the spot. I can't imagine what it would take to frazzle her- she is so confident and well versed in what she does. And worth adding: Addie and Michael are truly fun to be around. If you can't tell where this is going- it's a 10/10, would use again in a heartbeat, best vendor we booked kind of review. Dogwood delivers exactly as contracted and promised. Addie and Michael are well worth your investment. You will be extremely satisfied.
