Alyssa and her team are AMAZING!!!!

Alyssa and her team executed an exceptional job! My daughter's wedding at the Umstead in Cary was flawless! Alyssa's support was incredible- from addressing emails promptly to arranging an extra in-person meeting. My daughter Nanny and I had complete peace of mind with her overseeing everything!! I highly recommend her for anyone considering a wedding at the Umstead!

So grateful for Alyssa and her team!!

We had a great experience working with Alyssa from a Southern Soiree! She was extremely organized and responsive throughout the entire process. She put our mind at ease on our wedding day, allowing us to enjoy the day without stressing about the details. We literally could not have done it without Alyssa and her team!

True Kindness and Professionalism All in One

Lacey and her team helped to make my daughter Ruby's wedding effortless, relaxing, and worry free the days leading up to and day of the wedding. With rain looming she guided the decision to wait, wait, wait... and the rain did stop so we could have the ceremony outside at the Umstead. I didn't have a worry. From the start Southern Soiree provided guidance with kindness and professionalism. The truly know the business which allowed me to trust their answers on so many of the unknowns about hosting a wedding. The responded to ALL my questions. I never felt like I was bothering them or had an insignificant question. They respected our vision for the wedding. We felt like an expert friend was holding our hand. Lacey always has a smile and lightheartedness about her. Southern Soiree's mastery and intimacy concerning everything weddings is a true triumph as was out wedding!!!
