    Responsive, patient, and a true delight to work with

    Diane was an outstanding choice as our wedding planner, demonstrating unparalleled involvement from the start. With excellent contacts in the Outer Banks area, she showcased remarkable patience, friendliness, and responsiveness. Diane not only listens carefully to your requests but also goes the extra mile to find vendors that align perfectly.

    One standout quality is her non-intrusive approach; she never imposes decisions but rather guides you through the process. When we had to decide to get wed on the beach or at the venue, Diane provided hourly weather updates to help us make an informed decision. Her excellence extends to guest interactions, addressing their questions with grace.

    We are thoroughly pleased with Diane's services and highly recommend her for your once-in-a-lifetime fairy tale event. Her responsiveness to emails and calls further underscores her dedication to making the entire wedding planning experience seamless and enjoyable.

    The best in the business

    We can’t thank Diane enough. She is the reason our wedding was such a success. She is organized, smart, thoughtful, and so determined to give you the best day. The most stressful parts of planning a wedding, I did not have to lift a finger because Diane had it covered. I am so grateful that we found her. I will recommend her to anyone getting married in the Outer Banks. You really will not find anyone better.

    A dream wedding!

    Absolutely incredible experience with this company! Diane and her team exceeded our expectations completely! Would not change a thing about our special wedding day! They made sure it was beyond our expectations. From start of planning till after the wedding they had excellent communication, organization, and true care for their job and made it top priority that our day was special! They made our wedding day a breeze and we did not have to worry about a single detail and could actually enjoy every minute of the day.. Cant recommend them enough!!!

    Nordstrom Events's reply:

    Thank you so much, Emily! We are honored to read your wonderful review and truly appreciate you taking the time to write such kind words! Your family and friends were so sweet. And you and Alex were a dream to work with through the planning process! Thank you again!!!

    Luck Wedding

    I wouldn't have an idea where to begin with Diane. She was my wedding angel! From the minute I spoke with her she was the perfect planner for my perfect day. She helped facilitate and organize my perfect day with expert organization, patience, & ease. You can tell she was made for planning. Her skills as a planner include: organization, time management, problem solving, creativity, active listening, & networking with vendors. Thats just to name a few, there isn't a skill she doesn't absolutely qualify for. If I could do my wedding over, nothing would be different. I believe it's mostly thanks to her for making it a wonderful time & experience. If you're on the fence of who to go with Diane is worth it! She is as good as it gets! Look no further because she is the best!

    Nordstrom Events's reply:

    Thank you so much, Madeline! You and Chris are such a sweet couple, and I very much enjoyed getting to know you both! Beautiful bride...handsome groom...and wonderful family and friends! The day was amazing, and it was exciting to see your vision become reality. I will always be appreciative for the opportunity to be a part of your wedding!!!

    Best decision ever

    I strongly recommend hiring Diane. It was the best decision ever and took a bunch of the stress off us. We live out of state but she was great at communicating with us to help give us our dream wedding and have a smooth wedding day.

    Nordstrom Events's reply:

    Thank you so much, Monika! You and Jesse are such a sweet couple and I consider it to honor to have been a part of your special day!

    Smooth Sailing

    Diane was such an amazing help with planning our OBX wedding! She was professional, incredibly organized, and an absolute delight to work with. It was such a relief having her on board because it took so much stress off of us as we live out of state. She took us step by step through the process and made sure to answer any and all questions that we had. On the day of, everything ran so smoothly, she and her team helped take care of everything. I would highly recommend Diane for planning your wedding. Thank you again for everything!

    hire Diane

    One of the best decisions we made was to hire Diane to help us coordinate our wedding. She has so many years of experience working weddings, no detail is left unnoticed. We felt like she was helping us keep track of all the vendors and also thinking of little things that we missed. But the most important thing was that her being there on the day of the wedding allowed us to enjoy everything. Thank you so much Diane for all your hard work!!!

    Knowledgeable, flexible, all around FANTASTIC experience

    Diane is an amazing and knowledgeable event coordinator. We were planning our wedding from out of state, and Diane was a HUGE help in recommending the perfect vendors for us to connect with! When we decided to add flowers at the last minute, she quickly connected us to two options, and even offered to deliver the flowers to our venue day of herself. She connected us with our caterer and baker (the most important parts for us) and our guests along with my wife and I have not stopped raving about our food. Diane was quick to respond to all of our questions, and handled fires before they even came to our attention. Our contract with her included, chairs, tables, set up, day of coordination, DJ and more. The day of the wedding she arrived and immediately began setting up and everything looked BEAUTIFUL! We are so thankful for our time working with Diane and her team, and if we did it all over again would contact her IMMEDIATELY!!

    Nordstrom Events's reply:

    Thank you so much, Arianna, for the very flattering review! You and Amber were wonderful to work with! It did turn out to be an amazing day. The weather was PERFECT, and the venue (Whalehead in Corolla) was such a beautiful place for your wedding. Yes, we do work with the best vendors in the Outer Banks! I was happy to make those recommendations and pull together you and Amber's wedding vision. Best wishes to you both!

    The Absolute Best!!

    My husband and I were married on 9/4/22 and besides picking each other, Diane was the best investment we could have made. We live out of town, and wanted to do a destination wedding. Diane took care of everything!! She kept in touch with us every step of the way, was extremely easy to work with and made our special day one we will never forget!! I highly suggest taking her suggestions…she is extremely knowledgeable and everything that I wasn’t sure of and left up to her expertise, was nothing short of incredible. Our food was amazing, my flowers were gorgeous and the cake was absolutely beautiful and delicious!! I honestly can’t say enough about Diane and Nordstrom Events!! Our wedding day was everything we ever wanted and more!!

    Choose Diane for your OBX wedding!!!

    When I got engaged, I was overwhelmed by the entire wedding planning process. I was incredibly lucky to find Diane - she is an absolute professional when it comes to wedding planning! She knows all the vendors in the area, how to set up with OBX rental houses, and her planning and ceremony packages take so much of the stress out of the process. Thanks to Diane all of the important aspects of my ceremony are booked - and her packages are so well priced! I highly recommend Diane for anyone's Outer Banks wedding!

    Nordstrom Events's reply:

    Oh, Miranda! Your comments are SO sweet! I know it's been a challenge for you and Randall to find the perfect venue for your wedding, and I'm so glad you did. It's all coming together! It's going to be a GREAT DAY! Thank you for allowing me to be a part of it!!!

    Amazing Support with No Stress

    Diane was fantastic. Her support in preparation for the wedding and during the wedding made the whole experience enjoyable. We can truly say we had so much fun at our wedding and spent zero time on logistics or worrying about what was happening next, were people in the right place, was the food coming out, etc. Everything went off without a hitch, and Diane was so easy to work with and calm throughout. Highly, highly recommend!

    Lacie and Christians Day

    5 stars isn't enough for all Diane from Nordstrom Events did for my daughter's wedding. She went above and beyond to make the day superb from the tiniest additions to seeing that the wedding went smoothly. She definitely made the day stress free.

    Diane Rocks!

    My wedding would not have been possible without Diane. She made sure everything was in order, organized and ready to rock and roll. We had to make some last minute changes due to weather, and without hesitation she made the adjustments and made me feel confident that the day would work out just as beautifully, if not even better than I had imagined it. The day went smoothly and she had everything set up perfectly. You need a wedding planner in your wedding planning life, and trust me you need DIANE!

    Exceptional Experience

    Diane and Nordstrom events was the perfect choice for us. From deciding on a location to planning to the actual day, it was a flawless event. They made it so easy and we’re able to accommodate all of our requests. To say that is was an easy experience in planning a wedding during a pandemic was an understatement. Our wedding turned out perfect and everything I dreamed of. Thank you for making this the best day of our lives! Nicole & Danielle

    Thank you so much, Nicole & Danielle! We are so happy you were pleased with everything! It was truly our pleasure, and we wish you all the best!!! Diane

    Couldn’t have done it without them!

    We were very impressed with our recommended venue (The Pointe Golf Club), wedding coordination, and how seamless everything went throughout the day and into the final hours of the evening. Deborah & Diane were able to make planning for a wedding from a far distance easy (decor and every little detail!). Deborah & Diane's list of vendors were professional, timely, and easy to work with. Everyone we came in contact with did not disappoint. All-in-all it was the perfect day we were hoping for and cannot say thank you enough to all who were involved. Would 100% recommend Nordstrom Events! We can’t wait to get our pictures from Deborah to relive this beautiful day!

    Pleasant to work with

    We used Nordstrom Events for our small wedding (8 people total) at the OBX. They were pleasant to talk to throughout the whole process and offered up their expertise in answering questions before we could even have them! Despite the COVID pandemic closing the OBX for our original dates, Diane was super understandable and flexible with rescheduling everything to a later date. They took care of rescheduling with all of the venders. When it came time for the wedding they arrived, set everything up, and took everything back down. Excellent service!

    Our wedding was just what we had imagined and for that we definitely recommend giving Nordstrom Events a shot!

    Nordstrom Events's reply:

    Thank you so much, Louis! We truly enjoyed working with you and Amanda...you two are such a cute couple! Best wishes!!! Diane & Frank Nordstrom

    Attentive and Caring

    Having a wedding during COVID season was extremely difficult however, Diane did her best to make sure we had a great experience. Nordstrom events was very helpful in the organization and planning of our wedding. They proved to be very flexible even down to the day of the wedding when we had to move our ceremony inside due to the weather. Diane worked very well with our other vendors and I have heard nothing but good things from them about the organization as well. Overall, it was a great day and we had a wonderful experience. Thank you again for everything!!

    I cannot explain in words how amazing Diane and Deborah were! We were one of those COVID weddings that got canceled than rescheduled! Without them, I would have given up on my dream wedding! Everything was so organized and amazing! We could not thank them enough for all there hard work!

    Nordstrom Events's reply:

    Thank you so much, Jenn! You and Wally were so much fun to work with...so much that it didn't seem like work at all! Your wedding day was a blast, and your photos are amazing. We can't wait to see you again when you come back to the OBX!!!

    What better way to start a new year?!

    Our New Years Day wedding was perfect!! Diane and Deborah are a perfect duo. We had a small beach wedding and with only a couple months they helped us pull it off. They made the process so simply and were very helpful! Our pictures are breathtaking!! Some beach photos then we headed to Bodie Island Lighthouse!! We couldn't be happier with everything!!

    We can't even put into words how perfect our wedding day was! Diane and Deborah are absolutely wonderful to work with and made the entire process so easy.

    Heartfelt and Detailed, Caring and Professional

    These ladies and their family-filled business are literally everything I can imagine anyone would want to be involved in one of the most important days of your life. They hit all the marks: professional and detail-oriented, ensuring every box is ticked and nothing is forgotten in the planning process, but in a way that does not at all feel like work for the couple. My husband (!) and I just got married on July 14th and we planned the entire affair ourselves - I even did the favors and table setting design, etc myself simply because I really enjoy crafting ~ but one of the sisters married us herself and was really on top of ensuring everything from the table settings to the beach setting to the guitarist and DJ were all on schedule and perfect without us needing to think of a thing ~ and the other sister used her gifts to take just beautiful pictures at my house getting ready, at the club, at the beach, and reception - so many to look through!!

    Truly exceptional service in every way possible - Quality and Quantity - everything you could ask for at truly an outstandingly reasonable price point for everything we received.

    Nordstrom Events's reply:

    Thank you so much, Jessica! You, Hunter, and your family were so wonderful to work with! It was totally our pleasure, and your creative details made the day perfect!

    Absolutely amazing!

    So when we first decided to do our wedding in OBX we were just looking for places to do it. Weren’t really looking for a wedding planner. Well I stumbled upon Nordstrom events and sent and inquiry email. I received a response so quickly and was able to get the information I needed. Just from my experience with Nordstrom events I don’t think I’d ever recommend anyone else in that area. They made our wedding planning so simple and frustration free it was amazing. Diane and Deborah were always ready to answer any questions in the 1.5 year planning process. We have received so many complements on our wedding and I have multiple siblings that recently got married that were very jealous of how easy the process was for me with Nordstrom events. They know all the best vendors around town and contacted them right away to book them for our wedding! I would not have had anyone else do our wedding! The inclusive pricing for most things made it so much easier to commit to the process so early on.

    Nordstrom Events's reply:

    Awwwwwww...thank you so much, Casey! You guys were so wonderful to work with! Yes, our goal is to make the planning process as easy as possible for our couples! Thank you so much for putting your trust in us! Best wishes for a lifetime of happiness!!!!

    Dream Come True by the Ocean

    Thank you so much Deborah and Diane. When we first spoke about wanting to get married out at the OBX, we felt as if our family was helping us along right from the start. We felt so comfortable with both of you along the way and are so happy that you helped us make our dreams come true. We love you both and those that were part of our beautiful day.
    Mark and Ingrid Long
