The best day and vendor team! Congrats to The Spurlin’s! 💕🎉
Sterling Spurlin
Last day of June means a highlight of our June anniversaries! Wishing all these lovely couples a happy anniversary ❤️
Meet The Team 🎉 Tuesday 🎉!
Hello! I’m Kristin! 👋🏻
A few fun facts about me ⬇️
💇🏼♀️ I’m a hairstylist, small business owner & advanced color educator for the global company
🐶 My fur baby Ozzy is literal perfection
📚 I 🫶🏻 reading, gardening, just being outdoors, kayaking, a fun hike, & a good yoga session
🎶 Music Lover 🖤 Music is also something my partner Clint and I have always enjoyed together
💒 I love watching the wedding day unfold and come together for the couple! Also when everyone lets loose and is celebrating at the reception 💃🏻
That ✨just married✨feeling 🥰
Tablescapes and centerpieces are arguably one of my favorite elements of decorating/planning for weddings. I’ve had the great pleasure of working with so many creative brides with their own perfect individual vision! I truly love being able to help bring it to life 🙌🏻 Here’s a few beautiful combos from over the years 🥰
So happy to assist planning and directing the Grayson County Agricultural Fair ! One of my favorite ways to give back to our community! ❤️
Special thanks to Events By Elizabeth for their longstanding and super professional support of the Grayson County Ag Fair. We absolutely couldn't pull the fair off without them!

A compliment from a fellow wedding vendor (and friend) means so much to me. It truly takes a village to make the perfect wedding day possible and I am grateful for mine! 🫶🏻
“I have worked alongside Elizabeth countless times and she goes above and beyond every single time. She is in communication with me (as the photographer) throughout the whole wedding process, she runs the timeline by me before making it official and always makes sure everyone is on the same page. On the wedding day she makes sure the bride and groom are calm and stress free by not getting in a frenzy over small mishaps (that are bound to happen) and immediately finds a resolution. When finding the resolution she has a calm demeanor and runs it by all vendors and couple. She really just makes it all so easy and fun! She is also a great friend and always makes me laugh! You won’t be disappointed if you hire her!“

Wishing the HAPPIEST 1st Year Married to and 🤍
This wedding will forever hold a special place in my heart. As my bff and wedding planning side kick’s () younger sister, Kendra is also like the little sister I never had! Her & Chelsea mean the world to me so having the honor of planning this wedding will never be lost on me 🫶🏻 Kendra and Gavin, I am wishing you two a lifetime of marital bliss & happiness!

Weddings and couples are always special to me - but this one was a little extra special! 🫶🏻Travis is a colleague of mine and long time friend. It has been a true joy to see the love he and Kaleigh have for each other throughout the planning process. Kaleigh is a true angel and I’m so very lucky to have gained her as a life long friend now, too!
To drive the sweetness of their ceremony home, Travis & Kaleigh originally had their special day set for September 2024. This past December, they decided to move their date up to March! True love knows no time constraints, am I right? Events By Elizabeth happily stepped up to the challenge of changing our 9 month planning strategy to 90 DAYS 🤪💪🏼! One of the most beautiful ceremonies I’ll cherish for a lifetime. Congrats to The Cockerham’s! 🎉✨

Such a beautiful day for Kaleigh and Travis! I’m so incredibly grateful I could be a part of this couple’s special day. Cheers to a lifetime of happiness!
Terrific work by Dorian Starr Productions 😍
Happy International Women’s MONTH to my fellow gal pals 👯
May you take a moment this month to dance in the rain, let your hair down, kick your feet up, and do something you truly LOVE. After all, you deserve it. I’m so thankful to know every single one of you. 💖

I had the pleasure of helping plan the 3rd Annual Grayson County Agricultural Awards Banquet! This banquet focuses on highlighting agriculture in Grayson County and specific producers who are making a difference at various stages of their career.
Fun fact(s)! I grew up on a family farm, studied agriculture business in college, married a full-time farmer and live on an operating beef cattle farm! 🐂 Needless to say, agriculture has always been an important facet of my life and a true passion of mine. ♥️ Being able to help plan and coordinate the Ag Banquet for Grayson County is a super fun mesh of my favorite things!
To top it all off! At this year’s banquet, my husband, Ty, was honored by receiving the Beginning Producer Award - SO proud of him! 🥹

“Working with Elizabeth was such a breeze! She was able to take my indecisiveness and the few ideas I had to create the most beautiful wedding imaginable. Elizabeth was always available when I needed her and handled every aspect in an extremely professional manner. I would have been LOST without her! I can’t recommend her enough to all future brides!”
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I love my clients so much. I would literally be lost without them, too. ♥️
Lori Warren Photography is phenomenal! 😍

Reminiscing on one of my career favorites, The Stallard Wedding 💖🌸
Spring weddings, the time of year, decor, and all the sweet things that Spring season brings is one of my FAVE times of year for weddings. The Stallards were lovely inside & out and can we just please have a moment for their beautiful decor? Truly leaning into their April ceremony with gorgeous blush pinks and soft lilac purples. This is one we will always remember 🤍
I can’t wait to work with all of my Spring brides this year and to see all the beautiful decor combinations we come up with 💕💐
✨ Happy Birthday Chelsea ✨
Chelsea is one of our favorite people here at Events by Elizabeth and is keeping things together behind the scenes at most weddings and events we do! Chels makes my life significantly better by just being at part of it, just like she touches all of our couples’ lives by perfecting details at their wedding.
Cheers to you Chels, here’s to many more happy birthdays 🥳 🥂
Helping a bride to plan one of the most important days of her life is something I never ever take for granted 🫶🏻
“I cannot say enough great things about Elizabeth & her magic. If you’re on the fence about hiring a wedding planner, JUST 👏🏻 DO 👏🏻 IT. If you’re unsure which one to hire, you found her. This gal right here. Search over. No need to google anyone else.
She’s cool as a cucumber & puts a Pinterest board to shame. Instead of being a ball of stress on my wedding day, because of her, I was able to relax and actually just soak in and enjoy the day. Including the days leading up to it. & it was more beautiful than I could have imagined.
10000/10 recommend.”
-Cody & Kali Halsey ✨
Happy Monday Friends! 👋🏻
I’ve been logged off spending much needed time with my favorite gal, my Aunt Deanna. We’ve enjoyed warmer weather, beautiful sunshine, and being total tourists in the Florida Keys. ☀️ I highly recommend snatching up a beloved lady in your life and traveling to all your favorite places! You won’t regret it. 🤍🤍🤍
Tablescape Thursday 😍
Seeing the finished product of a gorgeous tablescape is one of my FAVORITES! This beautiful decor and style chosen by our January bride/groom Karley & Noah 👰♀️🤵🏻♂️. It’s in this setup & details that truly helps to set the tone for the reception. There’s an endless amount of creative ways to build a tablescape and I love being a part of making it come to life for our brides 🤍
✨ Transformation ✨
from engaged ➡️ wedding day 🪄
We love helping our couples from the very early stages of being newly engaged to fine tuning all of the special & meaningful details of your wedding day! It’s truly an over the moon feeling - to begin the process of planning the ceremony with your person. It means more than words can express for us be along for this journey 🤍

A winter, snowy dream ❄️💭! Windchills of -10 degrees and snowy landscapes couldn’t hold a candle to the warmth and FUN of this day 🫶🏻

Say hello to Chelsea Horton 🥰
Fun Facts About Chelsea ⬇️
💻 I work full time as an IT Manager. In IT, I spend so much of my time behind a computer analyzing data. Working weddings gives me a hands on creative outlet that I don’t get in my day to day!
🐈 🐶 I have a small zoo of four fur babies 🥰 3 cats and a dog
🪴 Plant Obsessed. I may have a slight obsession with plants and I’m always looking for new ones to add to my collection
👭 Elizabeth and I were college roommates at Virginia Tech & lifelong best friends. Working events together never feels like work because it gives us time to hang out!
🤍 My favorite part of the wedding day is seeing a couples reaction to the reception or ceremony set up before anyone else sees it!! It’s truly magical being able to make these visions come to life.
Beautiful headshots done by Abby Joy Photo 😍
Your wedding is such an important life milestone. I take it so very seriously to support you in planning and coordination of the wedding you always dreamed of, every step of the way 🫶🏻✨
“Elizabeth is the best wedding planner! She will go above and beyond to make your wedding everything you can dream of. We couldn’t have imagined our wedding without her! I highly recommend her for any newly engaged couples looking for a place to start the planning process for your special day. Elizabeth with make the entire process so smooth!“
-Gavin & Kendra Phipps 🤍
THIS is a memory for the books ⬇️
I had the privilege of working with the same wonderful family for TWO weddings last year!Sisters and got married one month apart and trusted us to help make their wedding dreams become a reality!
When I tell you these ladies (and their fun & crazy momma 😜) became like family - I am NOT exaggerating! 🫠
We never take for granted when a family books us once, much less twice! It was a pure joy to walk alongside the LaFon’s and I’ll cherish this one for a lifetime 🤍
Here’s my 2024 In/Out Bride Edition 🫶🏻
This year we’re only inviting guests we actually want to attend our wedding, we’re trusting our expert vendors, and we’re NOT -for the love God-checking the weather more than 12 hours before the big day. ✨

Wedding guests WILL do these annoying things and here’s how you can handle them 🤗⬇️ 1️⃣ Use their cell phones for pictures & videos although you have signs asking them not to. 🧺 A basket for guests to drop their cell phones may help to alleviate this problem or you can ask your officiant to announce a friendly reminder about cell phone use at the top of the ceremony. 2️⃣ RSVP late…or not at all. Oh. This one. 😵💫 📆 Setting your RSVP due date a week or two earlier than you originally planned can give you time to follow up with those who haven’t yet. Extra time for anything during wedding planning is always on your side! 3️⃣ Kids running wild & free during the reception. 🥰 If this is something important to you to prevent, perhaps consider making your wedding an adult only ceremony. A “parent’s night out”! 4️⃣ Guests will arrive hellish-ly early…and ready to chat with the bridal party while they’re taking pictures and getting ready! 🥲 💒 This can have a major impact on your overall timeline so having a strong wedding planning team and/or vendor team can really help with this. We never want *you* or anyone in the bridal party to have to be the “bad guy”, so communicate to your team your wants & needs if something like this arises and we will jump in action! 💬 Disclaimer: Not all annoyances listed here bother every bride. Or maybe all of these check your annoying-things boxes 😂 No matter what, it’s your day and your vendor team is on your side to support you to come up with solutions to “challenges” that may arise on your special day. #weddingplanner #weddingvendor #vawedding #weddingguest #weddingday #vaweddingplanner #2024bride #2025bride
Behind the scenes…seating chart edition 📝 Working with each bride is unique as it pertains to aligning with their seating chart vision! Here are my TOP 4️⃣ TIPS to ensure the seating chart plan is on track, exactly what our bride envisions, and most importantly - ready to execute on the big day ✨ 1️⃣ It’s never too early to begin working on this piece of planning. Seating charts are time consuming! Don’t wait until last minute - get ahead of the game and work on this early on so you have plenty of time to tweak along the way. 2️⃣ Go with your gut. It’s easy to overthink who should sit with who, but don’t 🫶🏻 Your guests are happy to be there celebrating you - regardless of who’s sitting at their table. 3️⃣ Get creative! There are so many cute ways to display your seating chart. Pinterest and other inspo-inducing platforms can help you pin down the display of your dreams. 4️⃣ Work smarter, not harder 😉 A tool like @aisleplanner can help make the seating chart planning process smooth and efficient. Find a tool that works for you and use it to your advantage! #seatingchart #weddingplanner #vawedding #vaweddingplanner #vawedding #wedding #2024bride #2025bride #engaged #weddingplanning
So completely smitten over Allyson & James’ wedding this past weekend! 🥹 Thank you so much for allowing me to be a part of your very special day. Wishing you two a lifetime of love 🫶🏻 💒 @eagleviewevent 📸 @trumomentsllc 🥘 @opendoorcafe1 🎶 @djmikey_jay_ii

There is just something so beautiful about an intimate wedding ceremony 🤍 I couldn’t get over the details of this one, too! 🌹 While I am not partial to weddings big or small (I truly love them all), if you’re in the thick of deciding which route is best for you and your fiancé, let’s take this moment to chat about the benefits of an intimate wedding: ✨ A smaller wedding *may* cost less, depending on the decisions you make. Alternatively, you can splurge on the items that mean the most to you! ✨ You’re surrounded by your closest family & friends. This allows more time with those specially chosen people in your life! ✨ Less pressure. With a smaller, more intimate guest list, you may feel less pressure and more relaxed. ✨ Allows time for more meaningful and intentional photography with your guests, should that be something that’s important to you! All weddings can be made beautiful. Big, small, elaborate, intimate. Be sure to follow your arrow when making those big decisions for your special day and when in doubt, ask a professional for guidance 😉
We plan and coordinate weddings ✔️ We transform tables into tablescapes ✔️ This one I will remember for my lifetime. 🤍 We celebrated my Aunt Deana & Uncle Fred’s 68th Wedding Anniversary through every beautiful detail, photograph, and memory shared on this day. The significance rests even more with Uncle Fred leaving this Earth way too soon just a short month later. ✨ Celebrate life’s moments. That can be something as elaborate as a tablescape and anniversary party or a candlelight dinner with frozen pizza. No matter how big or small, celebrate. 🎉
Santa’s been calling on Events By Elizabeth to help his elves at Santa’s Village since 2020. Needless to say, when Ole St Nick calls, we jump into action. ✨ We love helping make the “behind the scenes” magic happen, so Santa can focus on bringing his village to Eagleview Event Center & relax before his big trip on Christmas Eve 😉 Can’t wait to see the smiles on the kiddos faces this year when Santa knows alllllll about them 🥰🎅 #santashelper #santaclaus #olesaintnick #christmaslists #weddingplanner #eventplanner
Katie + Darren September 9, 2023 We had so much fun with these two and their family! Katie and Darren are truly some of the most positive, happy people we’ve ever worked with.
