Reminiscing on this perfect Fall day from last September & wishing the happiest of first anniversaries to K&G 💗

Fun fact: After this wedding, we officially added “Expert Cookie Identifiers” to our résumé’s because these two had THE cookie table of all cookie tables. 👌🏻

Not even sickness or postponement could keep these two from celebrating their unforgettable day with all of their favorite people. Joining this family over the last almost 3 years to bring this day to life has been such a joy, and G+C were so very deserving of the nothing less than perfection with everything they’ve been through along the way.

We may have clocked over 27,000 steps at to make it happen, but every single detail was thoughtful, intentional and so very beautiful making the back ache the next day more than worth it.

G&C - we love you guys!! 🫶🏻

What an honor to be asked to plan the very first shoot for the brand new right outside of Raleigh, NC. 🤍

We had such a blast designing this garden party complete with all the roses that will be featured in the rose garden upon completion.

Excited isn’t even the word for how we feel sharing these!! 😆

To celebrate the first day of May, let’s look back on a forever favorite wedding from last year. 💕

Planning with Anna & her mom was so incredibly fun, and I’ll always remember how trusting they were from the very beginning.

Having full faith in your planner leads to the best experience both during the process & at your wedding, allowing you to soak up all of those small moments and be fully present on your special day.

- Can we do it again?! 🥰

We’re going the distance this year with weddings & events spanning from the mountains of NC to the shoreline of Charleston. This is what we dreamed of.

Although we’re technically wrapping up our “slow season”, this winter has been anything but slow. In fact, it feels like we’re busier than ever with some of our favorite weddings and events to date on the calendar for 2024 (& 2025!!). 🎉

Here’s some of the highlights we’re most excited about:
✨ yellow sunshine roses & a butterfly release
✨ a colorful summer soirée in the heart of NC
✨ stars & stripes with surprise fireworks
✨ a vintage European dream in Charleston
✨ a sailcloth tent & southern feast
✨ a cozy mountain destination meets the Wild West
✨ & so many more

Stay tuned to see more. 🤭

Finally getting around to posting this gorgeous day from back in December with & at the ever so stunning . 🤍

This was such a fun one to produce with sooo many enchanting details that kept us coming back for more. One of my favorite moments of the day was when we opened the doors to invite guests into the reception space and I overheard one of her guests say “Wow. This is so Morgan.” 🥹

That’s what it’s all about, friends. Creating a day that so perfectly represents you & your love story is our jam. Can’t wait to show you what’s in store for 2024! 🫶🏻

I can’t even put into words how grateful I am for everyone that took part in the showcase on Sunday. I am blown away.

This was an unseasonably cold day in Raleigh, but these photos evoke a feeling of warmth, spring promises and a welcoming presence that just makes you want to come sit and stay awhile. From the magnolia trees outside reflected onto the linens to the pleats in the drapes, each detail was analyzed and perfected to give you a peek into our passion for great design.

Color, texture, materials, surprise & delight elements...everything coming together in one cohesive room (or in this case tent) can make all the difference for how your wedding feels, and we’re here to curate those emotions.

Thank you - to everyone who worked tirelessly in the freezing temps and to everyone who came out and said hello. Your support is absolutely incredible, and it’s an honor to continue to create beautiful events for this community. 🤍

All of our amazing vendors are tagged, and we wholeheartedly recommend every single one.

Absolutely obsessed with this color palette for this fall wedding in the NC countryside. Kimberly, Ryan & their guests had the best time last Saturday.

Our favorite detail? They hand-wrote each of their guests a message of love & gratitude to direct guests to their seats during cocktail hour. Swoon. 💗

Patrice & Nate on their wedding day. 🤍

This wedding was the definition of intentionality and making your wedding what YOU want it to be - everything we love over here at SOE.

More to come from these two, but these arches over our guest tables deserved a permanent spot on the feed. Y’all don’t want to know what it took to get them here, but thank heavens for next-level florists like & for being willing to work together and bring our client’s visions to life.

Nearly impossible to choose just 10 photos from Katie & Gian’s magical wedding day at last Saturday.

I always joke that SOE is a walking billboard for Carolina Grove since we always find ourselves there, but to be honest, we aren’t even close to being out of new & fun ideas in this stunning venue. ✨

What’s your favorite part from K&G’s color-filled, perfect weather, fun-loving, beautiful linens, I-could-go-on day?

Ceremony tent details for Anna & Jordan ✨

Fun fact: this tent was a last minute addition when rain threatened our outdoor ceremony. Although, we lucked out and had beautiful skies all day, so many guests said they absolutely loved the shade this tent provided for this hot & humid NC day.

Lesson from this day: Tents don’t have to be used *only* as a rain back up plan and massive florals are always a good idea. 😉

Reminiscing on this beautiful June day at with Lindsay & Tyler.

This Disney loving couple wanted to showcase their personality while still maintaining a Black Tie feel, and we did just that.

From a quintessential Disney color palette, fun drink names, specialized stationery and "A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes" playing through the speakers, any princess would be proud.

This is how you do a "themed wedding" right. What would your dream wedding theme be?

Whoops, we spilled the tea.

The wedding industry leaves much to be desired in the realm of real wedding budgets, but we’re here to help.

We broke down the actual costs and ideal budget for hosting a luxury wedding here in North Carolina on the blog, and these same principles can be applied to several wedding destinations in the Southeast.

A conductor's skill is often judged by the talent of their orchestra.

The hard truth: As wedding designers, we are at the mercy of our creative team.

Our role is to ensure each element has been carefully constructed and articulated such that each creative partner has a clear and comprehensive understanding of the vision, our expectations and your dream, but unfortunately, we cannot do their job for them.

This is why trusting your planner & designer is not only important, but imperative when choosing your vendor team. Think of it this way:

We can design the most exquisite bougainvillea floral display ever imagined, but without a florist who is educated on the nuances of this tricky species, your ceremony might die before anyone sees it.

OR

We can share inspiration of stunning film photos with glowing candles, but without a photographer who is competent shooting in low-light, your photos may (more like will) end up unusable.

By booking us *first* and trusting our judgement with your creative partners, the magic we are able to create is truly remarkable. Ready to see it for yourself? DM PLAN to get started. ✨

Let’s chat about venues!

Choosing your wedding venue may seem like a daunting task, as it is one of the most important aspects that kicks off the planning process. While there are many different aspects to consider, Sweet Oak Events focuses on finding a dreamy location that is true to you and your vision. Our advice?

✨Make sure you bring your planner along for the ride. Our expertise is imperative, as our industry knowledge will help you best determine whether the space will work for your expected guest count, budget, and experience (Book us first!).
✨Consider each option offered by the venue. What design elements are included such as furniture, lighting, etc.? Does the layout fit your vision? Is there a large enough space for a tent installation?
✨Tour venues that align with your investment expectations. This will set you up for greater success and easier decision making later in the planning process.

What else should be added to this list?

Pretty must have a purpose.

This is one of our core design principles, but what does that mean?

It means we strive to make sure every design detail of your wedding either:

1. Has significant meaning to your story
2. Provides logistical function for your event
3. Or elevates your guest experience.

If it doesn’t meet at least one of these requirements (extra credit for hitting all three), it doesn’t make the cut.

What remains are only the absolute best ideas and details that have you and your guests raving about your wedding for years. ✨

One of our most asked questions...and our favorite to answer!

How does phase based planning even work?

Our number one goal is to create a planning process that feels seamless, full of joy and produces an experience you want to remember. We don't subscribe to the notion that wedding planning has to be hard or stressful. Here's how we do it:

Phase 1: Planning
We start with a strong foundation of expectations and your budget before diving into venue & vendor research. All of your vendors will be booked during this phase.

Phase 2: Design
Then, we move onto Cheyenne's favorite part - design! Dreaming, creating and communicating your vision with your creative team happens here.

Phase 3: Management
In the final months of planning we tie up any loose ends, create your timeline, audit your vendor team and attend your final walkthrough.

Phase 4: Production
It's wedding week! We are knee deep in confirming deliveries, set ups, answering last minute questions, delivering welcome gifts and serving as the point of contact so you don't have to.

Phase 5: Post Wedding
Everything that goes up, must come down! We oversee all tear down, rental/furnishing pick ups and more to take care of our clients, vendors and guests.

This is a VERY brief overview of the thousands of tasks we have during the planning process. Want to learn more? Reach out at the link in our bio. ✨

Who said your bar had to be boring?!

We leave no detail untouched, so of course that means your bar will get the facelift it deserves, and your drinks will be poppin’ right alongside. 👏🏻

For this summer design, we incorporated refreshing fruits such as blood oranges to give our cocktails this beautiful color while making them equally as delicious. ✨

Don’t you wish you could have one right now? We sure do!
