Can’t say enough good things!!!🤍

The entire Social Butterfly team was seriously so incredible to work with! We couldn’t have picked a better team to execute our day so flawlessly. 🤍 Our coordinator, Brittney, was THE BEST!! We were planning all the way from Chicago and she made the process feel a lot less scary and doable, whether it was letting us send boxes straight to her house, or being a source of comfort if she sensed even the tiniest bit of stress. Her and Katie also took SUCH good care of us during the big day that we were genuinely so sad our time with them was over!! Couldn’t recommend them or the entire Social Butterfly team more!! 🫶🏽

Go with Social Butterfly!!!

We worked with Brittney as our lead planner! We went with the partial planning option which was perfect. The list of recommended vendors that was provided was so helpful since my husband and I aren’t from the area. Every vendor we chose from their list was flawless. Brittney was AMAZING through the entire process. She went with us to pick out place settings which was so helpful. She is just so sweet and down to earth and I never felt judged for any choices I made or pushed into anything I wasn’t comfortable with. She was quick to answer any questions I had during the planning process. She really went above and beyond on wedding day to make sure everything went perfectly and we didn’t have to worry about a thing. Marcie was also amazing during set up making sure everything was done according to our vision. When I first got engaged I didn’t think a planner was necessary, but I’m SO GLAD I had one. It’s the biggest stress reliever and made our wedding day run perfectly. We are so happy we went with Social Butterfly. You won’t be disappointed with these great girls who work hard to make your day spectacular!!

Perfection

We had a wonderful experience working with Marcie and her team! We were an out of town couple doing a destination wedding looking for a team to help make our day perfect and social butterfly events made that happen! Our wedding day wouldn’t have been so special without their services!

Best Day Ever!

My husband and I literally had the best day of our lives on our wedding day. I would not change a single thing. Marcie and the team executed everything flawlessly while making sure we always had a smile on our faces. During the planning process Marcie kept us organized and on track, calm, and had a solution for any and everything. Thank you Social Butterfly for making our wedding more perfect than we could have ever planned!

Wonderful and Capable Team!

I highly recommend Marcie and Social Butterfly Events for wedding planning and day-of coordination. I felt like I was in capable hands the entire wedding planning process! She was responsive, has a great attitude, and provided great advice from years of experience, all of which was beyond helpful as I had soo many questions :) All the vendors we worked with were absolutely incredible and we would recommend them to anybody and everybody. Our wedding day was flawless and completely stress free, which is saying a lot considering Hurricane Ian swept through on our wedding day. Thanks to Marcie and her team handling all the last minute changes, details, and stressors, we were able to completely enjoy our day and not worry about a thing!

If you're looking for a planner to deliver your dream wedding - you found them, stop looking! Five stars aren't enough for Social Butterfly Events!

I honestly can't say enough positive things about Social Butterfly Events - Charyl, Marcie and the team were absolutely OUTSTANDING throughout every single step of the planning process and were such a large part in our perfect (literally - PERFECT!!!) day! From day one, I knew in my gut I had to book Social Butterfly because 1. This team came HIGHLY recommended to me 2. Their design portfolio of previous events were UNREAL and 3. They sounded so much FUN and I knew they were going to do everything in their power to match the exact vision my husband and I had, and I must say they delivered!

The entire process of working with this team exceeded my expectations - from answering EVERY. SINGLE. QUESTION I had (and in a timely manner), to lining up the literal dream team of vendors, to helping guide my overall design to be out of the box but still something I like, to making the WORLDS LONGEST HEAD TABLE work out in the most beautiful way, and everything in between, they were such a joy to work with and I wouldn't have changed one thing.

Marcie, Charyl and team - I can not say thank you enough! You gave me and Kyle our dream wedding and we are eternally thank you.

To anyone currently looking for a planner - you found them, stop looking!!! Your planner is hands down one of the most important vendors to book for your wedding day and I promise you will not be disappointed with this team!

Marcie and Brittney are Amazing!

I highly recommend Social Butterfly if you're looking for a day of coordinator and any planning help. Marcie was amazing. Her checklists and day of timeline kept us organized leading up to the wedding and allowed us to not worry about ANYTHING on the big day. Special shout out to coordinator Brittney as well, who handled our day of rain situation flawlessly. The Social Butterfly team really made our wedding vision come to life and were a pleasure to work with throughout the whole process.

Amazinggg x100000

Planning a wedding during covid-19 is definitely not ideal. However, Charyl helped us so much during the process I do not know what we would have done without her. She gave great insight planning a wedding during this time. We had several vendors cancel due to covid-19, Charyl was on it and found us replacements right away. I have to say the replacement vendors she found were also ON POINT. I told her I wanted our wedding to look like a magazine and boy did she deliver. She knew I was a very visual person and wanted to see pictures of everything. She did just that. She has an eye for design! Social Butterfly events planned us our dream wedding!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
