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!

I hired them to help me with a grand opening business event. They guided me through every step of the process. It was amazing! They didn't just plan, they EXECUTED! They were there from start to finish and every step along the way. They kept me on track and ensured that every little detail (from vases of flowers to napkins) were "just so." I don't care what your event is--a birthday, a wedding, a business deal--they can help you with every aspect and ensure that it runs well and nothing is forgotten.

We worked with them on our wedding, which ended up being pretty tricky with a lot of different guests with different needs, a wide age range in the wedding party, a small venue, horrific weather predictions, etc... Yet nothing fazed them! Carol and Andrea made our special day so much better and less stressful than it would have been! First off, they asked us a lot of questions to get a feel for what we wanted, and then made lots of suggestions - some about things that just never occurred to us and which were very important to figure out ahead of time! Every time I started to get stressed about a new item I had to check off my list, one of them would say, "Don't worry, I'll take care of it," and they did! They did a fantastic job of working closely with our vendors, and organized the flow of events perfectly. On our special day there was literally nothing for us to do or worry about, other than having fun. I can never thank them enough!!!!!

Curated events has beautiful furniture, linens and tableware in a range of price points and styles. We were able to rent everything from them, from tent to champagne flutes to coffee percolator. Alyssa was our point of contact and helped us look around their showroom to make some initial choices, and was so helpful and patient as we worked to finalize our order. I'll also say that their setup and breakdown teams were efficient, hardworking and knowledgable. I'd definitely recommend them as a great option for anyone getting married in the Triangle!

The entire experience was seamless. I highly recommend them for your event!

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!

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.

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.
