You need Parris!

Parris planned my wedding in SC, while I was living in DC. I could not have done any of it without her. Throughout the process, I felt like I didn't have to an single thing. She handled every single aspect of the wedding. This gave me the ability to enjoy the day. Her team was also amazing and super fun to work with! I cannot express enough how greatful I am to have had them. The detailed budget sheet was 10/10. Parris kept me on track with my budget. The timeline had every single detail of the day. It was truly a blessing. Words cannot express what an amazing job she and her team did setting on the venue. Just take a look at the photos!

Exceptional

Great to work with! I own Lake Murray Event Rentals and have worked with Parris on two weddings (one being her own). She knows how to make your special day PERFECT! I would highly recommend Parris and looking forward to working with her again soon.

Parris is an AMAZING wedding planner!!

Parris is an AMAZING wedding planner!! Her full service planning package helped us stay on track with budget & her network of vendors were incredibly helpful to have. At the end of the day, Parris, her assistants, & her recommended vendors made our wedding day everything we had dreamed of and more. As the bride & groom, we really just got to sit back & fully enjoy the day, knowing that she was taking care of everything!

Parris here... to praise the one and only all-star Jennifer Yi!

Jennifer is the rock to my roll. She has been on my team since 2021 and helps with almost every wedding. She doesn't hesitate to jump in and take the lead on a wedding day task and has an incredbile work ethic. This is golden in a team member! Whether she is assorting escort cards, making sure your taper candles are perfectly straight, or carrying your delicate train and veil to the edge of the aisle, Jennifer's goal is to make sure your wedding is nothing short of perfect!

Do you see her profile picture? When you meet her on your wedding day, you will get this look at least once or twice throughout the day, and I can almost guarantee you, and some point, she's going to make you laugh!

Thank you, Jennifer, for all you do!
