✨After nearly a decade, I thought it was about time I introduced myself! Hey y’all, I’m Megan!

✨I have been a planner my whole life! I was the girl who always organized the sleepovers, elementary school reunions, epic birthday parties, etc.! Planning is my love language! 😆 That’s why I’m so thankful to have been able to plan events professionally for 11 years and counting!

✨My hubby and I have been married for over 16 years and I still remember my wedding day like it was yesterday! It was truly one of the most magical days of my life and I strive to make sure all of our couples experience that same magic!

✨ I have 5 amazing kiddos who are the light of my life, but also the reason I will probably have gray hair soon! 😂

✨I am a sports mama through and through! There are more balls in my house than we know what to do with…baseballs, footballs, basketballs, golf balls…but I wouldn’t have it any other way! ⚾️🏈🏀⛳️

✨ I have two of the sweetest goobers to ever walk the earth! Oliver and Remi are our golden retriever pups and we are absolutely in love with them!

✨ I have the greatest friends a girl could ask for, and many of them have been by my side since elementary school! If I’m ever arrested, chances are I’m with them, and if I’m not with them, they are who I’m calling for bail money! 💰💕🤣

✨ I absolutely love to travel and am always up for an adventure, a cup of coffee is the way to my heart, and chances are I’m listening to Morgan Wallen or Hardy!

✨Well, that’s me in a nutshell! Let’s be friends!

Y’all, I really tried this year to do a better job of posting these gorgeous weddings, so I could brag on my wonderful couples and fantastic vendors! But here we are, the end of September and I have 30+ weddings just sitting in my inbox or camera roll! Ugh! 🤦🏼‍♀️ I’ll do my best to get them posted once the season ends!

For now, here is a look at this past weekend…the largest wedding of the season, to the smallest wedding of the season, and I loved them both so much! 🤍🤍

Whether you have a full service venue and 250 guests, or a DIY venue and 30 guests, you deserve to have someone 🙋🏼‍♀️ seeing to all the details of your day, making sure the magic happens, just as you have envisioned! We are here for it all, and we absolutely love it!

I did it y’all, and it only took me 10 years! I can plan a fantastic wedding, but technology is not my strong suit, so this feels like a big deal in my book! 😅

That’s a wrap on 2022!

What a great wedding to end on! It literally monsooned the two days leading up to Mariel & Tony’s wedding day! I never imagined we’d be able to have their ceremony outside. But the sun came out just before ceremony start time and it was absolutely beautiful! 🤩

Cheers to these great vendors and a wonderful 2022 season!! 🥂

I am the world’s worst when it comes to posting on social media! It’s a New Year’s resolution every year and every year I fail! So...as wedding season winds down, I’m going to try and post weddings from our 2022 season.

Megan and Dan had a picture perfect November day and they certainly deserved it! 🤍

Wedding details stressing you out?

Think it’s too late to hire a wedding planner?

You’re in luck my friend, not only do we still have availability in June, July, and August, but we are offering discounted rates on available dates! Reach out today!! 📋🖊

Vendor friends, if you have clients who need assistance, send them our way, we’d love to help!

I can’t be at every wedding, so these texts from fellow vendors mean EVERYTHING to me! So thankful for my incredible team!

I recently received an inquiry for wedding planning and this Mother of the bride had the nicest things to say about my husband’s woodworking skills. I don’t know her, we’ve never met, and that is what made her comments so special. I may be biased about his work, but it doesn’t make me wrong. 😉

Whether you need a custom charcuterie board, home decor, or a wedding arbor rental, he has what you need or he can build it and you can rest assured it will be beautiful and meticulously made!

It was such a special and unique wedding ceremony! ♥️

Mara and Darius became Mr. and Mrs. Jones at Fussell Farm in Miller's Creek. A Branding ceremony established their new business and the event was not only elegant but thanks to the assistance of Megan Drake went off without a hitch. It was a great day! Thanks to all the vendors and Fussell Farm for making my job officiating so easy.
