Simply Perfection!

My husband and I hired Serenity from Events in the City to officiate our wedding and we couldn't be more pleased! Serenity was efficient, flexible, kind, and incredibly thorough. She made sure that our ceremony was everything we wanted and more! Would 100% recommend her services.

Justice wedding 11/24

Serenity did an amazing job executing the vision I had for our day. She went above and beyond to ensure everything was done to my liking and made sure to make our wants/needs a priority! No matter what problems came about through out the night she handled everything and took all the stress off our plates. We will most defiantly use her again for any events we have in Columbia.

Simply Impeccable

You can't go wrong working with her. Not only did she do a fabulous job with the decor, she integrated perfectly well with all vendors. She took her time to ask relevant questions, make reasonable suggestions and stayed calm, respectful and friendly all through the process. I really enjoyed working with her and I definitely would recommend her a thousand times. She checked all possible boxes with her impeccable service.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
