My husband wanted a wedding planner and I was hesitant because I was trying to save money, but let me tell you.... I do NOT regret getting Beth as our wedding planner! She calmed my nerves during the entire wedding planning process which helped keep me sane. I loved how much knowledge she has in the Outer Banks wedding industry. I truly believe that is the reason our wedding day turned out perfectly. She made sure I had every little detail down to a tee. I did not think of half the things she reminded me of! My husband and I are so thankful for Beth and her team! Our day was so smooth because of them. 10/10!

All these reviews are five stars for a reason - Beth is amazing. I felt so little stress leading up to our wedding because she was completely on top of every detail. Our wedding was perfect thanks to her! BOOK THE FULL SERVICE PACKAGE, it is worth every dime. We will miss our zoom catch ups!

Don’t think twice, hire Beth!!

We cannot say enough amazing things about Beth, our incredible wedding planner for our Manteo, NC wedding! From start to finish, Beth with Engaging Events made the entire planning process smooth, stress-free, and actually fun. She was so organized, thoughtful, and completely on top of every single detail – we truly didn’t have to worry about anything.

Her calm presence and expert guidance allowed us to fully enjoy our day without distractions or stress. Every element came together perfectly – the timing, the decor, the vendors – all thanks to Beth’s hard work behind the scenes. It felt like she read our minds and brought our vision to life better than we could have imagined.

If you’re getting married in the Outer Banks or anywhere nearby, do yourself a favor and hire Beth. She’s truly the best, and we’re so grateful she was part of our day!

Beth Made It Possible for Me to Truly Enjoy My Daughter’s Wedding

Beth with Engaging Events OBX was absolutely incredible to work with as my daughter’s wedding planner. She came highly recommended to us by someone we met while visiting the Outer Banks, and it was easy to see why she has such an outstanding reputation.

From the very beginning, Beth made the entire planning process fun and stress-free. Over the course of about a year, we thoroughly enjoyed our Zoom calls with her, she kept everything organized, offered creative guidance, and connected us with the most amazing vendors who perfectly matched my daughter’s vision and style.

On the wedding day, everything was seamless. Beth and her team handled every detail flawlessly, which allowed me, as the mother of the bride, to do something I never thought possible: fully relax and truly enjoy my daughter’s wedding. So many people told me beforehand that the MOB never gets to just “show up and enjoy” but they were wrong. With Beth by our side, I was able to soak in every moment.

I cannot recommend Beth and Engaging Events OBX enough. She made the entire experience, from planning to the big day itself, absolutely unforgettable.

Beth is amazing

Beth was absolutely amazing, and we cannot recommend her enough! We live in Virginia, and she gave us fantastic recommendations for other local vendors, all of whom were wonderful. We had monthly/weekly Zoom meetings to review flowers, cake, schedule, and more, and she was always available for calls and texts whenever we needed her. We booked her full-service package and spent over a year planning with her, and she made the entire process seamless. Beth kept us on track, eased all the stress, and handled every bit of vendor coordination. You must use her for a wedding in the Outer Banks — she was there for us every single step of the way!

She is truly the BEST

Beth was AMAZING from start to finish. I had no idea what I was getting into with the wedding world and how everything worked - the processes, timelines, etc. She reassured me she'd help every step of the way and she went above and beyond. Our wedding day was stress-free and as perfect as we imagined, and we truly owe it all to her. Beth knows all the best local vendors, venues, and I am SO happy I went with her recommendations. If you are wondering if she should be your planner, trust me, you need her!!

Best wedding planner ever

Beth was truly the best wedding planner I could have asked for. What could have been seen as a crisis wasn’t because of the way Beth handled things. She was on top of everything, super communicative, and just honestly one of the nicest people you could ever work with. She gave amazing recommendations for vendors. The day of your wedding you truly can sit back and relax knowing she’s is handling everything. 12/10 experience. I couldn’t have asked for a better planner.

Great experience

Beth was a wonderful coordinator. She went above and beyond to make sure we were prepared for the big day in the months leading up to it and that everything went off without a hitch. She was in full support of everything I had in mind and offered super helpful suggestions on things I didn’t have strong opinions about. We planned the wedding from afar and Beth was always great at making sure we could visualize and understand all our options. Beth offered by far the best value for her coordinating services compared to other options we considered and we are ecstatic with the wedding she helped us have.

Best Coordinator on the OBX

Wow, where to start...Beth came highly recommended by many of my girlfriends who previously got married here on the Outer Banks. As someone who grew up here, I wanted to find someone who specialized in Outer Banks weddings and could elevate our ceremony and reception to a classy, southern and fun affair! My mom and I hired Beth as our "Day of" Coordinator, but she really stepped in to be the "final couple months" coordinator because she really brought our ceremony and reception to life. Her knowledge and professionalism were exactly what we needed to take everything next level and get organized. Her close relationship with all the vendors, including Carolina Roots Rentals was the key that made everything more elevated and run smoothly. Carolina Roots Rentals worked with Beth in making my dream ceremony come to life with exquisite chairs, benches, bar cart and accessories -- they are a Power Team together! Beth really cared about what we wanted and listened to my mom and I for hours about our hopes for the day. She was always available over text and a friendly face over zoom. I only have great things to say about Beth and would recommend her to anyone if they are looking for a planner or coordinator. I almost forgot to mention that my bridal party had 11 bridesmaids and 12 groomsmen. Beth was able to wrangle with grace our entire party and keep everyone in line and on time. I could go on and on, but I just want to say thank you to Beth, you made my dream wedding day come true!

I've probably performed as many weddings with Beth as any planner/coordinator on the Outer Banks. She always has the bases covered and never drops the ball (and that's not easy!). Beth has been on the Outer Banks a long time and has all the right island knowledge and connections to make your wedding journey stress free. And another thing, she always has a team that is pleasant and competent. I love that!
