Three months to plan a wedding? NO PROBLEM! My wife and I were engaged in August of 2016 and had agreed that if we could somehow pull it off, we didn’t want to wait until spring or even a full year later before getting married, but we knew we needed to find a planner who could help us pull it all together and relatively quickly. Fortunately for us, we had Erin Drake of Enlighten Events to help us make it happen. Erin was a consummate professional: reliable, meticulous and detail-oriented with a wealth of knowledge of local vendors and a breadth of experience with many different styles and tastes. We immediately knew we could trust her timing, her work, and her style. She always went the extra mile to communicate where (and when) to focus our time and energy, which was vital given our short window for pulling it all together. She kept us to task, but she did all the heavy lifting, which was a huge relief for us both. She helped us create a wedding that was elegant, relaxed, romantic and eclectic. From start to finish, Erin created the perfect ambiance for our ceremony, cocktail hour and party. She personally decorated the wedding venue. It was intimate, warm and beautiful. She introduced us to our photographer, caterer, officiate and DJ, all of whom she emphatically endorsed and ultimately proved to be the perfect choices for us. Erin personally collaborated with a florist to bring us gorgeous arrangements, bouquets and boutonnieres. She also suggested the perfect rehearsal dinner space. Erin was always thoughtful to our budget. She knew where to spend to get the best results. And she's an absolute pleasure to work with! She's warm, funny, super down-to-earth…and not to mention, a little powerhouse capable of maneuvering a truck through the narrow streets of DC and unloading it on her own! We are so grateful to Enlighten Events for helping us create the perfect wedding weekend, and we’re confident that you won't regret hiring Erin and her wonderful team!

Erin at Enlighten Events was amazing to work with for our wedding in Seagrove Beach, FL! When she and I first talked, I began describing what I had in mind for my wedding and Erin totally understood me from the beginning. She carried out everything I wanted on the day of and certainly exceeded my expectations for the decor. She always made a point to share new ideas with me, but always as an option and never pressured me into anything, she always made it about what I wanted and what worked within my budget. She is passionate about her job and you can see that in the work she does. I have her to thank for creating such a memorable wedding!

I had the pleasure of working with Enlighten Events International on a styled shoot in 2015. Erin is professional and so creative! She brought so many ideas to the table, and brought my vision for the styled shoot to life perfectly! I loved working with her, and I look forward to working with her in the future!

Enlighten Events International has stunning florals and decor comparable to any vendor I have worked with. They are client oriented, service driven and create beautiful events. Overall they are one of the best in the Charleston market. I recommend them for their knowledge, skill, creativity and their ability to work effectively with so many different types of vendors.
