Professional, Personal, and Perfect!

I knew Parris was “the one” from the very first phone call! I had a whole list of concerns and felt like she addressed them all before I could even be stressed about them! I love how professional and organized she was, but it still felt like you were planning with your best friend! I went with her full service package and I am so glad I did because I didn’t have to think of or worry about a thing! Parris paid attention to EVERY detail, and not only listened to my vision but brought it to life in a way that completely exceeded my expectations. If you are looking for someone who can manage your budget, your vision, your vendors, your day, and even your emotions (ha!) Parris is ABSOLUTELY the planner for you! Thank you, thank you, thank you to you and your team for making the planning process and my wedding day completely stress free and absolutely perfect!!!

I would hire Parris 10x over!

From the very beginning, Parris felt less like a wedding planner and more like a partner who just got me. Every idea, every detail, every change of heart—I never had to explain myself twice. Parris matched me step for step, reading the room, reading me, and bringing my vision to life in a way I didn’t think was possible.



What really stood out was how seamlessly she handled everything behind the scenes while still keeping me at the center of the process. I never felt like I was being pushed into a template or someone else’s idea of a wedding—Parris made sure it was our day, our way.



If you’re looking for someone who can keep up with your energy, your vision, and your occasional last-minute Pinterest obsession, Parris is that person. I couldn’t imagine doing this with anyone else.

Perfect wedding because of the BEST planner!

If you want to see your dreams come true, using Parris as your wedding planner is the way to make that happen. She is extremely thorough and confident in what she does. We went with her full service planning and it is beyond worth it. It's hard to say I ever felt stressed while planning the wedding, and the entire wedding day could not have gone more perfectly/smoothly/stress-free. While she strives to place you with the best vendors, she keeps budget and personal preferences in mind. Parris is fun, thoughtful, full of knowledge, and easily one of the best at what she does. I can't say enough how thankful we are to have had her as our planner and I recommend to everyone to book her asap!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
