Stephen Wedding vibes: Elegance meets garden glam 🌿💍✨

Sage, shades of green, white, and pops of peach: the perfect palette for a love story. ✨ With gold accents adding that extra sparkle, the Stephen wedding was pure magic. And let's talk about the ambiance - string lights, white wisteria, and vine balls hanging in the air space, a first in this venue! The Stephen wedding made history and these images will whisper tales of romance for years to come!

Congrats to the happy couple, Alli and Chris!

We're passionate about wedding planning and equally excited to collaborate with you and your family on your rehearsal dinner. Partnering with us for both occasions can unlock discounted vendor rates, cost savings through item sharing, and additional benefits!

Thank you, Rebecca and Michael, for your testimonial! Full review below!

"My husband and I worked with Parris/Eventfully Chic by Parris for our wedding, and she was absolutely the best wedding planner we could have asked for! I have said countless times this was our dream wedding, but if we did one thing differently it would have been to hire Parris for the rehearsal dinner too! My husband and I both have demanding work schedules; however, Parris was incredibly understanding, accommodating, and communicative. This helped make a potentially overwhelming process fun and exciting every step of the way! Even more importantly, we are not originally from Columbia and so we were not well versed in the available vendors or venues. Parris listened to our visions for both the wedding and rehearsal in addition to taking the time to get to know us and what specifically we may want. Because of this, she was able to recommend and coordinate incredible venues/vendors/decor ideas that gave us the most incredible, meaningful, special, and gorgeous wedding that was beyond what we even imagined. She truly is a wedding planner you can trust- and on a day as important as this, she is the kind of planner you want."

🎥 Love warmed every corner of Hannah and Derrick's late December wedding! ❄️💕

To create an intimate and inviting atmosphere for their reception, we enclosed a heated tent with clear walls, seamlessly integrating the natural beauty of the Adams Pond. Adding a refined flair, we included a French door kit to elevate the setting. This cozy arrangement not only kept guest's toasty warm but also radiated an atmosphere of love, laughter, and comfort, even as the temperatures dipped to 40 degrees.

Thank you, Hannah and Derrick, for choosing us as your coordinators for your beautiful Adams Pond wedding!

The bride's connection with her wedding dress is a mix of excitement, anticipation, and sentimentality. Putting it on, she envisions the moments ahead—walking down the aisle, exchanging vows. In that dress, she sees not just an outfit, but a tangible symbol of her hopes and dreams for the future.

"What do YOU want to see more of in 2024?" We'll go first!

We want to get lost in the graceful curves of more calligraphy and on-site engraving activities! ✍️

There's something magical about the art of hand-lettering that adds an extra touch of love and elegance to every detail.

Calligraphy doesn’t just ink the words; it etches emotions. From vows to es**rt cards, seating charts to personalized touches, calligraphy adds a touch of elegance to every detail. 🖋️💖

With the Christmas season upon us, we sprinkled festive cheer with mistletoe margaritas and real mistletoe hanging in the entryways, creating a magical holiday aesthetic against a classic black and white palette.

The elegance of perfectly complemented the couple's style, creating a setting that was nothing short of a holiday fairytale.✨
