Best in the business!

Nordstrom Events and Diane were a dream to work with. From our first call, she was warm, professional, and ready to plan. She curated our timeline, communicated with our vendors (and helped us choose a couple—Jeffrey’s Greenworld and Sweet Sunflour Bakery were superb) and abated all of our stresses. We credit Diane with making our special day better than we could have ever dreamed. Despite our venue being unresponsive, we had zero concerns that our day would run smoothly with her as our coordinator—and it did! We have nothing but positive feedback for Nordstrom Events and would highly recommend them to any bride in OBX.

What an amazing person to help with our special day!

Nordstrom Events was beyond amazing! Diane was very responsive and provided recommendations with the best vendors. Coming from out of town, it was a weight off us that she has these connections. Her vendors did not disappoint either and were as stellar as her and her husband! We had a small wedding, but she gave us the same attention to detail. We even had to pivot at the last minute due to the weather (out of everyone’s control!) and she was all over it, already with a plan in hand. We are beyond grateful to have crossed paths with her as our day was perfect! We highly recommend her!!

Amazing Experience

Nordstrom Events is absolutely wonderful! Diane was top notch and very informative. Planning my small wedding was stress free all thanks to her! Being away from the area, I was nervous but she was so attentive and always led me in the right direction! We had the most perfect day and we loved Diane and her very inviting personality!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Nordstrom Events are pros. I have had the pleasure of working with Diane, the vision that the brides and grooms have given her was fulfilled. Beautiful tables, arches, flowers the total package. It all looks effortless (but we know how much work is put in each and every event), you can put your event in her capable hands. I look forward to working with Diane and her team in the future.

I'm always happy to learn that I'll be working with Diane from Nordstrom Events. I know that she'll be handling everything that a planner should, which makes my job easy! I love showing up to the weddings we share because it's like seeing my family since we've been working with most of Nordstrom's staff for almost 20 years now! Hundreds of couples over the years have been thrilled, so I am completely confident to highly recommend Nordstrom Events to anyone looking for planning and coordination services on the Outer Banks of N.C.!
