About

Hobnob Occasions is an event planning and design company with unique rentals such as rustic farm tables, benches and vintage furnishings. Hobnob Occasions is not your typical event planning and design team. Let’s pull up a chair and work side-by-side to combine your vision and unique style with our “think outside the box” perspective. Outstanding service, experience and a real desire to see your vision come to life is what sets us apart.

We work throughout Raleigh, Durham and the surrounding areas. Interested in a wedding or event outside the Triangle area? We’d love to talk with you!

Services Offered

Wedding Coordination
This service is sometimes referred to as “month of coordination”. This is for the couple who wants to plan their own wedding but needs guidance in planning, hands-on assistance during the last critical month and a trusted friend on the week of the wedding and throughout their wedding day to run with their plans so they can be free to celebrate. We will work behind the scenes and on the sidelines to make sure that you and your guests have an unforgettable experience.

Wedding Design
Whether it’s creating fabulous table settings, decorations or providing the perfect pieces to use, let us do the work to bring your vision to life. Our team will design and style your space on your special day.

Unique Rentals

We offer a selection of unique rentals such as farm tables, benches, chairs, mismatched china and other carefully, curated decor items. We also offer "porch pick-up" for many of our rentals. Go to The Goods section of our website to start your wishlist.

Excellence

I do not have enough words to describe how amazing Hobnob Occasions is. Johnna went above and beyond!!! My entire wedding party and guests had the best things to say about her and her team, noticing her attention to detail, her organization, her professionalism, communication, and more. She made everything leading up to our wedding so much more enjoyable and easier than it would've been otherwise. She thought of things that I wouldn't have even thought to think about. She is trustworthy and has a high level of excellence. There is no other planner I would ever pick!

Wedding 10.17.2020

Hobnob is one of the best decision you will make for your wedding. We had a wedding during the middle of COVID so there were tons of moving pieces from temperature checks to making sure guest were in smaller socially distanced groups all while still having to manage the normal wedding details. Hobnob pulled off our wedding flawlessly. We had to change our plans three times before landing on what we could actually do and they helped us the entire way. Even in the middle of a pandemic our wedding was absolutely magical thanks to their hard work. If you are on the fence about hiring a wedding planning team we would highly recommend hiring them. You won’t regret it and you won’t have to worry about a thing on your wedding day.

Incredible team that

Not knowing much about wedding planning, we looked for some guidance to plan a destination wedding. Hobnob jumped, got to know what we wanted and quickly organized what was going to me an amazing weekend wedding at the beach...then an hurricane hit and we had to replan everything in three days. They immediately got to work coordinating a new venue, entertainment, food, styling, and activities for out of town guests. Many of our guest could not believe that this was "plan B" and commented that it was better than most plan A's. The working dynamic between Kris, Trish, and Andrea was fantastic - it is the perfect blend of style, organization, and fun. We knew we were in good hands from our first planning discussion and could not recommend them more.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
