    Best Planner in Wilmington - Hands Down!

    Brittanie & Kinsley, you were incredible. Thank you for making our dream a reality - we can never thank you enough. Our guests have been raving about our wedding for days! If you are in the market for an event planner, look no further! Brittanie & her team are the absolute best.

    Absolutely Amazing!!

    I can not express how much gratitude and love I have for Brittanie and the BRE team! We booked Brittanie for Monthly of/Day of planning and it was by far the best thing we did for our wedding! From each planning meeting to the rehearsal, to the wedding day Brittanie was professional, helpful, and just completely on top of the game. I nor my husband had to worry about a single detail the day of our wedding other than sitting back and soaking in every single moment. Brittanie was able to take my vision and make it an absolute reality. I can not recommend BRE enough!!

    We also added on Serendipity Florals, the BRE in-house florist, and I was blown away by how beautiful our flowers turned out. They were exactly what I wanted. Definitely recommend adding these as well!

    Professional & FUN wedding planners

    The BRE team is AWESOME. Kinsey was my lead planner with help from Kensley. From start to finish, there was never once a time during the month leading up to the wedding and especially on the day of when I felt stressed. I just always knew and trusted that they had everything under control. They "got" my vision and brought it to life flawlessly. Everything looked even better than I imagined. Walking into the reception room took my breath away.

    They operate like pros- calm, cool & collected but like a boss. They have that magical events skill of running the room without drawing any attention to what's going on behind the scenes. I want to plan another party just so we can do it again!!!

    Highly recommend, as do all of my guests who could not stop telling me how awesome our planning and vendor team seemed!

    Brittanie and her girls were INCREDIBLE

    I don't know if we will have enough characters to write our review about Brittanie and Kinsey and their team, but I will do my best! My husband and I got married on 2/20/21 in Wilmington, and we hired Brittanie (Brittanie Raquel Events) for our month of and day of coordination, as well as having her and her team set up our reception space. Safe to say...she went above and beyond. The River Room is already such a beautiful space, but everything was so carefully done, down to the beautiful floating candles we had surrounding our sweetheart table and the velvet table cloths we rented through Brittanie! Brittanie truly made our vision come to life with her attention to detail, checking in to make sure each of us had everything we needing leading up to and on the day of the wedding, and just in general going out of her way to make sure the day was perfect in every way. I cannot stress how important a day and/or month of coordinator is SUCH a blessing, it let our families enjoy the weekend. I can't recommend Brittanie and her team enough!!!

    Brittanie and her team made our event come together like a dream

    BRE was our planner for partial and day of coordination for our rehearsal evening on board the Henrietta riverboat. We couldn't have been more pleased with how the communication, guidance, and follow-up helped us execute a beautiful and fun event for such a reasonable price point. Brittanie and Kinsey put their touches on our vision, and although I knew what to expect, when we walked into our venue their attention to detail literally made me stop to take it in. It was so exciting to see that the decor and staff and activity was on auto-pilot so that we could enjoy ourselves and host the guests and focus on the bride and groom! The team made sure the schedule moved exactly as planned and was subtle but purposeful - our welcome, cocktail hour, mealtime, toasts, cake-cutting, and time to mingle enjoying music and the sunset flowed easily. BRE handled set-up flawlessly, and the boat was transformed into a lovely bright and happy party spot. Clean-up happened so seamlessly that we barely knew it was taking place as we said goodbye to people. All of our belongings were packed back up and returned to us without us lifting a finger. Questions were answered expertly and any requests were carried out quickly. Best of all, Brittanie and Kinsey are really nice people and were genuinely invested in creating the celebration we hoped for. BRE was the perfect partner for making a important evening really special!

    Brittanie & her team rock!

    Brittanie & her team were so amazing to work with! At first I thought I could do it all myself - needless to say having Brittanie as my planner was the best decision I could have ever made! I knew we were on the same page leading up to the wedding and when I made my own decor it was such a good feeling knowing I could drop it off and she would make it into my vision! She said the most amazing thing to me a few weeks before my wedding - "You don't have to worry about that anymore, now it is my job" - literally I could feel the weight of the stress lifted and I knew I didn't have to stress about the details - because she always had my back. (They were even bringing water to the beer pong table we set up & handled a stressful miscommunication with other vendors like a true professional!)

    The best wedding planner

    Kinsey was amazing in helping plan the biggest day of our lives. I couldn’t take on the task of planning a destination wedding all the way from Texas. The second I found BRE I knew I would be just fine. She eased my stress in every moment even when I had mental breakdowns at 12am about choosing the wrong photographer (who ended up being the best). She helped with every little detail months before, weeks before, and especially the days surrounding wedding day. Kinsey gets her work done in a timely manner and is a pleasure to work with!! I wish I could do it all over again 100x!!!

    Wonderful!

    We had the best experience working with Brittanie Raquel Events! We hired them for month of and day of planning and we are so glad that we did!
    Amanda and her team did such an amazing job bringing our wedding day vision to life and the day could not have gone more smoothly. Leading up to the wedding - Brittanie, Kinsey, and Amanda answered all of our questions and really helped us throughout the planning process. Having Amanda and her team there allowed us and our family to truly enjoy our day and we could not be more grateful for that!

    Brittanie Raquel Events's reply:

    Lizzie, Thank you so much for your kind review! It's always so excited to hear that the team provided amazing service for not only the wedding day, but throughout the planning process as well.
    Thank you for trusting the BRE Team with such a beautiful and special day.

    I highly recommend

    Our experience working with the BrittanieRaquelEvents team was amazing! It was a load off of my husband and my back.
    Everyone can attest to the fact that wedding planning can indeed be frustrating and stressful & the last thing you’d want is to be stressed out on your wedding day!

    This is where Kinsey & Brittanie’s expertise came in. We hired them for the Day of Coordination. Prior to our wedding day, April 27th 2022, Kinsey met with us to go over what we wanted and to give suggestions as well as she was our Lead Coordinator. I was even presented with a little token from the team during the meeting!

    Our day passed smoothly from start to finish! They ensured to coordinate with all our vendors and ensured that we were okay and topped up on drinks during our day!

    I recommend their services for your special day! You will not regret it.

    Amazing Wedding Planner!

    Our wedding was amazing thanks to Brittanie! She responded quickly to all of my many questions and made the planning process much easier for me. She was awesome at coordinating all the vendors for us and making sure everyone and everything was set up on time. She is extremely hardworking and highly experienced. From unloading decor to setting everything up perfectly and even making sure we had drinks throughout the night, she didn’t miss a thing! We are so grateful for her and could not have asked for a better person to work with.

    Could not have done it without them!

    Kinsey with BRE was AMAZING. She was so patient with me and my anxiety which caused me to check on things every 5 minutes. She never batted an eye! She helped to make everything so very beautiful and peaceful on the day of my wedding. I seriously had to worry about nothing. I wish I could give them a higher review. Seriously, this may have been the best money I spent. Everything was absolutely perfect in big part thanks to her and the BRE team. I would recommend them to any and everyone.

    Best coordinator ever


    I knew from the very beginning of planning that I wanted a coordinator, at least for the month of if not the entire wedding. In our normal life, I’m usually the “hostess with the mostest” in every situation, and I didn’t want to be so preoccupied with table settings, emotional meltdowns of family members, wardrobe malfunctions etc… when I should be enjoying marrying the love of my life.

    Brittanie happened to be the point of contact for the venue we chose, and when we met her to see the venue, I knew immediately that I wanted her to be our coordinator. She had such a lightness about her and I felt like she could not only see my vision through but also tame all the craziness that comes out with family based events.

    I was totally right. We had meetings leading up, answered questions I didn’t even consider in all of my own planning, and I actually felt relaxed at the thought of the wedding day.

    On the actual day, Brittanie and Kinsey were on site already setting up when I got there and (after being reminded by my family that I was to relax today) I let them do their thing. When I got out of their way, they just ran with it! All of my visions were seen to and then some. They were incredibly attentive outside the normal scope of work as well! They met us with water while the photographer was getting photos outside, they brought me drinks to the sweetheart table so I could relax after the first dance and just eat. Honestly, they put out fires I didn’t even know were happening until after the wedding was over.

    I couldn’t be more grateful for Brittanie and Kinsey for making it safe for me to just be a bride for a day, and marry the man I love with no stress headaches.

    If you’re considering hiring Brittanie, stop considering. Do it. It’s worth every penny for your peace and happiness on the most important day of your life!

    Brittanie is a must hire!

    I’m writing this review on the first day of our Honeymoon in Paris - I just couldn’t wait to tell everyone what an incredible job Brittanie and her team did at our wedding.

    We got married 8/7/2021 at the Beaufort Hotel. From the very beginning Brittanie was professional and very communicative. I planned my NC wedding from across the country and she worked around my planned trips to NC and set up zoom calls when necessary. I had to make multiple changes to the timeline and she was able to incorporate all those changes quickly!

    The day of the wedding went flawlessly. She picked up and set out all of the decor beautifully and went above and beyond with the dessert table (it looked better than I ever imagined!). She even moved all my ceremony decor inside to the reception area so it could get more use. Her team was quick to replenish the cupcakes/donuts as the night went on. She made sure we stayed right on schedule with all our vendors.

    Overall I didn’t have to think about anything and was left to enjoy the day without any concerns! I HIGHLY recommend Brittanie and her team!!

    Made our day seamless!!

    Brittanie and specifically Kinsey made our day perfect and seamless. From our initial phone call I immediately felt like they shared and understood my vision for the day. I definitely knew what I wanted for our wedding and I felt like they enhanced it and captured my exact hopes and dreams for what our day would look like. They were responsive, professional, fun and SO organized. I used their month-of coordination package and at our walkthrough they went through every detail with a fine tooth comb and sent me back a detailed summary of all that we had discussed and a timeline. We followed up with multiple phone calls, they adapted when I changed my mind on things, and they took over all communication with vendors so I didn’t have much to worry about but marrying the love of my life! The day of the wedding, they showed up early, stayed late, perfected every detail, were my total hype girls, and didn’t let us go more than 1 minute without a drink in hand. They cleaned up spilled drinks, bustled my dress, made sure we were always in the right spot, handled awkward conversations, dealt with a our rambunctious bridal party, danced with us and truly felt like friends at the end of it all. I want to be a part of BRE when I grow up, we had such a great experience with them. We would honestly pay them double what they charged us because they were a priceless part of our day.

    Best wedding planner out there!

    We used Brittanie Raquel Events for our wedding and the team absolutely nailed it. We were given a team of three, led by Kinsey, and they were perfect right from the start. Very organized, executed everything according to plan, great personalities and good vibes the day-of, attention to detail, always present, didn't slack once during game time, and created the best experience for my wife and I during our big day. You will be happy to choose Brittanie, Kinsey, and her team for any event or wedding!

    Absolutely amazing!

    Brittanie and her team are absolutely AMAZING!!!!! If you are needing a wedding planner and are considering going through Brittanie Raquel Events just do it! I had my wedding in Wilmington, NC and was trying to plan it from out of state because I live in Texas and have no ties to NC. I had absolutely no idea what I was doing and that’s when Brittanie came in! Brittanie truly cares about her clients and is so incredibly talented! She’s super personable and can make your vision come to life, even if you’re on a budget! Her pricing is VERY reasonable for all of the work she puts in. My biggest worry was finding vendors that were reasonably priced and fit in with my vision for my big day and Brittanie matched me perfectly with every single vendor! She also did all of the communication with the vendors up until contract signing and that took a HUGE stress off of my shoulders! Weddings can be super expensive and of course I was always worried about money, but Brittanie has so many cost effective tricks up her sleeve it’s crazy! She made things happen with my budget that I didn’t think were possible! Leading up to the day of the wedding I was of course stressed because we were getting so close. I was originally planning on having the wedding ceremony outdoors, but there was terrible rain the entire week leading up to the day. Brittanie was on top of it and already had a plan for the worst case scenario. When we got to the weekend of the wedding, Brittanie and her team took over and made the day stress free and everything I ever wanted it to be (even with it being inside)! I cannot recommend Brittanie Raquel Events enough because they are just so amazing!!! I am so lucky that i found Brittanie!

    Couldn't have done it without them!

    Brittanie and her team were amazing to work with! Even though we only hired them for month-of planning, she was more than willing to help and answer questions ahead of the month of the wedding. She helped bring my beach house wedding vision to life and executed it beautifully! No matter the obstacles thrown her way, she handled them calmly and professionally and I almost didn't even know they were happening in the moment. Would highly recommend this team!

    Brittanie Raquel events is unbeatable in service, professionalism and experience!

    Our experience with Brittanie was excellent. She really help us put together the details during likely the most complicated era of our lives. I can't speak enough to her patience for sight and calm handling of every obstacle that arose. I will always remember her leadership, poise, and direction as a key part of what made our Wedding day amazing. I can't thank Brittanie enough for the effort and detail that went into an awe inspiring event. My experience with Brittanie and the River Room thoroughly earned my highest recommendation.

    BEST decision we made!

    Hiring Brittanie Raquel Events was the best decision we made in our wedding planning process! Right away, Brittanie worked with us to provide the exact services we needed. We used her vendor recommendations and couldn’t have been happier with how everything turned out. They all worked together to give us the most MAGICAL, stress-free day! If there were any hiccups along the way...we had no idea. :)

    Kinsey was our lead coordinator for the wedding itself and she did phenomenal. Very organized, professional, and reassuring during the weeks leading up to the wedding and the day of! Her and Brittanie are seriously a dynamic duo and I am SO thankful we chose them to help make our wedding day PERFECT!

    My dream wedding

    Could not have had the wedding of my dreams without the help of these ladies! So helpful and organized. The day of my wedding was so stress free due to their organization and handling of all vendors and guest questions.
