  Ali Caldwell and her team of professionals far exceeded our expectations in planning our wedding in Charleston. After interviewing several local planners (as we are also local), Ali was by far the most attentive and most flexible in working around our busy work schedules. She is one of the most organized and responsive individuals I know and works extremely hard to bring her clients visions to life. We felt like we were working with a friend, and one with our best interests in mind.
  
  On the day of our wedding, with an unexpected rain storm, Ali was still able to flawlessly re-arrange our ceremony without a hitch. She made sure everyone was accommodated and most importantly, made the Bride and Groom feel like a King and a Queen for the day. Our guests have described our wedding as "magical" and we owe much of that to Ali and her team (Savannah and Ashley) for pulling it all together on the day it mattered most. We have nothing but amazing things to say about her and would recommend her to anyone.

  Ali helped us with our destination wedding in Italy. We worked with a wedding planner over there for things like the setup, rentals, and catering but Ali helped me:
  1) pull together "inspiration boards" to give the Italian wedding planner which was incredibly helpful to communicate our vision as the wedding planner did not speak English......seriously
  2) helped create the itinerary and scheduling for the enitre day
  3) served as the "day of" coordinator working with the Italian wedding planner and Villa owner completely taking any burden that day off me
  
  I can honestly say my day was unbelivably relaxing and stress free because of her. My confidence in her allowed me to truly enjoy the moment which is sadly something so few brides can say. We had the wedding of our dreams and she was absolutely one of the reasons why!
  
  
  Her presence and assistance helped my entire day be stress free

  Ali and her team made all my dreams come true! They helped my vision come to life in the most flawless way. They are all kind, professional, hardworking, well-connected, and ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS made me feel so special and important. They were incredibly prompt with responses and always got things done in the most timely fashion. They made this wedding planning experience an absolute delight, and I truly wish we could plan our wedding again just for the opportunity to work with them again. I am honored to have worked with them, and I would recommend them to everyone getting married EVER. They are amazing, and you would never regret working with A. Caldwell Events.

  Choosing A.Caldwell Events to plan our wedding was the best decision we made. Ali brought our whole vision to life and made the whole process stress free and surprisingly so much fun. She made herself available at all times via email, phone, text, you name it. On the day of our wedding, she and her team handled the set up and event as if it was a walk in the park...completely non stressed and with a smile on their faces. Ali personally brought us drinks and food throughout the evening to make sure we were being taken care of at all times. Not only did we love working with Ali but we gained a friend too. I truly can't thank them enough. Of all the wedding items that we spent our money on, Ali's service was the most worth it.

  When looking for a wedding planner, we had several things that we thought were most important to look for in a planner. We needed someone that could be professional, responsive, and organized, while also being creative and imaginative enough to pull off the wedding we were looking for. Ali and her team delivered above and beyond in every way for our wedding. She was instrumental in coordinating each and every detail of our wedding, which was especially important to us since we live in NYC and could not meet with each vendor before the event. Ali and Savannah did a beautiful job in both the months leading up to the event and seamlessly orchestrating the day of the wedding itself. Five stars is not enough for the wonderful work that the Ali Caldwell Events team did for us! Highly Recommend

  The best decision we made when planning our wedding was hiring A.Caldwell Events. I had started trying to plan the wedding on my own (from out of town) and at 4 months in felt like I didn't know what to do next. The first time I spoke with Ali about what we had in mind for our December wedding, I knew it was a perfect fit. I knew I would be able to be as involved as I wanted to be, but in some areas I could just trust them to make it amazing and they did. The whole process of planning the wedding went from stressful to fun as soon as we hired them. The day of the wedding was when I was most impressed. They were on top of everything - all we had to do was show up and have fun! This sounds super corny - but I felt like a princess all day. They were there every minute - holding my purse, grabbing my lipstick, holding my dress and veil as we were getting photos taken, getting my husband and I drinks from the bar all night. I honestly could cry right now just thinking about how amazing they made the day. And the wedding was absolutely GORGEOUS. They made our vision come to life in a way better than we could have imagined. A++++

  Picking the right wedding planner is one of the most important decisions in the wedding planning process and I could not be happier with A. Caldwell Events. The process was truly seamless. Ali and A. Caldwell Events made planning so enjoyable that I actually missed their e-mails and updates when the wedding was over.
  
  Ali provided a clean and detailed budget for us and stuck with it! She was honest about where to spend money and where it would be wasted - which is refreshing because as you plan a wedding people are all to willing to let you spend money where it is not necessary. Ali and her team are incredibly fast and responsive. E-mails were answered immediately and phone calls always returned. I never had to push to get a response or an answer to a question.
  
  Ali and Savannah also stayed on top of our timeline. I was never concerned that we were falling behind on the planning. They did not overlook a single thing. I loved that Ali was the point of contact for all the vendors. I cannot express how much time this saved. Instead of calling and dealing with each individual vendor, Ali and the team took care of it for us and reported back. Ali and Savannah also prepared a design board for us that was just perfect. And then they made that beautiful design come to life at our venue. They gave their opinion, listened to my ideas and just made magic happen!
  
  As if that was not enough, the day of the wedding is where Ali and her team made me so incredibly thankful for them. Our wedding day was flawless and we owe it to them! I was not burdened with any major concerns or details of the wedding that day because I knew it was in Ali's hands. If anything did happen to go wrong that day, I would never have known about it because Ali would have handled it so discreetly.
  
  Ali is the perfect mix of professionalism and friendly. I trusted her implicitly and hope she never leaves Charleston so I can say hi when we come back to visit!

  Ben and Alexis

  Ali did the rehearsal dinner that I hosted for Ben and Alexis. I could not have been more pleased! Other than making some selections, I really did nothing. Ali has a warm personality and was not at all pushy. I would highly recommend her!

  Choosing to work with A. Caldwell Events for our destination wedding was the BEST decision we made throughout the entire process. We spoke with at least 7 planners on the phone and made a trip to meet with our favorites. I knew I wanted a specific look for our wedding and wanted to work with someone who I felt could achieve this, but more importantly I wanted someone we felt connected to. Because planning a wedding, and especially one that isn't nearby, can be an overwhelming process, someone who was just "all business" and didn't want to connect on a personal level wasn't going to work for us. The process was insanely organized with timelines, reminder emails, check ins, to-do lists..it was quite apparent this was not A. Caldwell Events first rodeo, however we felt like we were the only client they were working with the entire time. Emails and calls came through in a very timely manner, they recommended the BEST vendors and I felt like I had a friend to chat with if I was being indecisive on something as silly as what sort of guest book to use. Not to mention, the wedding was amazing. On wedding day A. Caldwell Events was there bright and early to make sure the whole set up went smoothly (I didn't have to think about a thing except enjoying the day with my bridesmaids) and they didn't leave until after we left for our after party. My family jokes around and says that somehow not one thing went wrong with 120 New Yorkers who had enjoyed many cocktails. And if something had gone wrong, A. Caldwell Events did a GREAT job of fixing it before anyone else found out. I cannot recommend Ali and her team at A. Caldwell Events enough, they were truly amazing.

  I couldn't say enough about Ali and her team if amazing women! Ali was always there to answer any questions that I had and made this whole experience a breeze. Our wedding was everything I could have ever imagined and it is all due to Ali's ability to capture my vision. I always felt like I was her only bride! I can't thank them enough for an incredible weekend!

  Hire Ali Immediately!

  Ali planned both my and my sister's wedding in the same year! And though our days were completely different (spring / winter, outdoors / indoors, no-church / church, etc.), each was absolutely magical, and we attribute so much of that success to Ali's hard work!!
  I live in Boston, and leading up to the wedding in Charleston, Ali immediately responded to all of my questions and always put me at ease. Her professionalism is matched only by her kindness and efficiency -- she makes decisions easier, listens to your concerns and responds accordingly, and keeps you on track. We even came in under budget - a true testament to how Ali puts the client's needs and choices first!
  On my wedding day itself, I felt nothing but joy all day, as Ali and her team executed our plan perfectly. Seeing Ali at each part of the day calmed my heart and brought me so much comfort. And walking into the reception room - a large warehouse space - and seeing that our vision of warm, festive, flower-filled beauty had come to life was a moment I will remember for a long time.
  
  If you are looking for a wedding planner, your considerations likely include:
  will she know which vendors to trust?
  will she respond to all of my questions?
  will she get to know me and my partner as people to help make sure the day reflects who we are?
  will she be able to work with (insert "my family", "my church", "my friends who are part of the wedding", etc)?
  will she help me stay on budget?
  will she make sure I am stress-free on the wedding day itself?
  will she let me be as involved as I want?
  For Ali, the answer to ALL of those questions is YES.
  If you have the opportunity to hire her, I suggest you do so immediately! Do not let the chance to work with her pass -- the skills and joy that she and her team will bring to your wedding are priceless. We can not sing her praises enough.

  I cannot say enough good things about Ali and crew! Before my husband and I even got engaged, I thought I had everything figured out- we would get married in Charleston on a plantation...It would be a beautiful sunny day, one we would never forget. Well, once the ring was (finally) on my finger, I was in for a big surprise. There are so many moving pieces to wedding planning, even a control freak like myself needed a wedding planner. I would ABSOLUTELY recommend hiring A. Caldwell Events! As organized and detail oriented as I thought I was, Ali was always one step ahead of me. Not only is Ali an expert in her field, but she was a pleasure to work with (In fact, I miss my daily emails with her!).
  Our wedding day was beyond all expectations due to A. Caldwell Events' dedication, passion, and enthusiasm. Even the rain in the middle our outdoor ceremony was handled with ease! In short, A. Caldwell Events is everything you'd ever want in a wedding planner... the team is reliable, honest, intuitive, resourceful... and the list goes on an on. Thank you SO MUCH Ali & Savannah!!

  Happily Ever (Before) & After

  We are so lucky to have worked with Ali! Such an incredible experience from start to finish. She's so organized and her attention to detail and made us feel at ease. It wouldn't have been the same without her help.

  Ali Fisher and her team are a dream come true to work with. I live in Denver, Colorado and was planning a long distance wedding in Charleston, South Carolina. A friend of a friend of a friend recommended Carolina Food & Design to me and we just hit it off immediately. Ali is extremely professional and went above and beyond the call of duty. She was always available and quick to respond any hour of the day. With the understanding that she has other clients, I was amazed how organized she was. She knows the wedding business in Charleston and all the associated vendors which was very helpful when it came time to obtain estimates. Not only did she offer cost savings ideas, she created and printed my wedding programs and some signs that I wanted to use at the reception. This was of course an additional cost but the point is my vision stayed in-house with Ali. Ali got my wedding vision and helped me create it. I was fortunate not to have many (if any) issues with vendors but anytime I had a question, she was on it. She cared about making sure I was happy with things and well I’m sad it’s over. Ali has that special touch that we all want when planning a wedding as she knows how stressful it can be, but she also has a fireball personality that is protective in nature when need be. I would / will without a doubt recommend Ali and her team to anyone planning a wedding locally or long distance.

  WOW, is all I can say! Ali was amazing and extremely helpful. She made things so easy for me and took all my stress away. I can't imagine planning our event without her. She is very organized and professional. Her ideas were breath taking and everyone commented on our reception saying it was absolutely beautiful. She was in constant contact with us and brought in the best vendors :).
  I am going to miss her now that our wedding is over.
  I can't say enough good things about her and would HIGHLY recommend her.

  The most wonderful wedding planning experience!!

  I cannot say enough wonderful things about Ali at A.Caldwell events. To say that she kept me sane and organized during my wedding planning is an understatement. What had to potential to be a very stressful process was actually fun, thanks to Ali and her team.

  Ali and her team were absolutely phenomenal!! From our very first conversation with Ali, I could tell she was humble, hard working and would be an awesome person to work with to make our special day perfect! Choosing A.Caldwell Events was one of the best decisions I made when planning our wedding. From their creative, unique ideas to their attention to detail to incorporating all of my ideas to making it special to us, these girls knocked it out of the ballpark! The design was exactly as I had dreamed, and A.Caldwell truly made it my fairytale wedding. To put everything into perspective on how great these girls were, I unfortunately had to have unexpected surgery a week before our wedding, although I was slightly stressed out, I knew everything would run smoothly and go perfectly because of A.Caldwell!! The flow of the entire was night was seamless and they did not miss a beat! Our friends and family are still talking about our wedding and how perfect it was! Not to be biased, but I totally agree with them. All thanks to A.Caldwell Events for making it absolutely perfect! These girls went above and beyond, and I cannot be into words how thankful I am to them!!

  Beyond Perfect. Coming from an extremely type-A bride, Ali and her crew were always on it. They responded to all of my emails quickly, helped me stay on track during my year and half planning, and truly helped my vision come to life. Every detail was executed and Ali was running the show the day of the wedding even with a cute little pregnant belly. I am so thankful for Ali, Savannah and the whole A.Caldwell team!!

  Ali, Savannah and the full ACE team are incredible. I planned my wedding from New York and I am a control freak to say the least. Ali was incredibly responsive whenever I had a question or just needed a second opinion. She laid out a clear timeline for what needed to be done and always provided me with thoughtful recommendations that fit my tastes and budget (which she did a wonderful job staying under!) Ali was very inclusive in the planning process, working across both my parents, my husband and me to ensure the full group was up to speed and happy. I loved the flexibility Ali gave me to choose the details I cared about, but for the rest she would step up, take the lead, and take care of everything. The week leading up to our wedding, there were storms all over Charleston. Ali and the team took it in stride and were quick to adapt. Instead of forcing me to make a call early, she waited to see how the weather would turn out before executing our backup plan. Savannah was a rockstar - Given the bad weather, we took a detour prior to the ceremony – my mother, Savannah, a few bridesmaids and I toured the back property in our car to make sure I didn’t see my groom before the ceremony. I was a ball of nerves and Savannah was cool as cucumber. At one point she even sprinted the length of two football fields to get a prompt status update on the preparation – if that isn’t dedication I don’t know what is! Ali and her team did a wonderful job connecting us to incredible vendors who really matched our tastes and budgets. Every detail of the romantic evening was exactly what we pictured. There is no cookie cutter option here, everything is custom to ensure your day is perfect.
  To any bride in the Charleston area, I hope you are lucky enough to work with Ali, Savannah and the full ACE team on your special day. I am forever grateful for the time and energy they put into our event to make it the best day of our lives! THANK YOU ladies!!

The day of was such a blast, and we would highly recommend!!
