    Wonderful Wedding Planners

    Trent and Ashley were amazing from the start. They took so much pressure and stress off our plates so we could truly enjoy the day. On the day of, we had Ashley and Ariel, and they were on top of everything, helpful with ripped pants and dresses, and supportive when needed. Bridesmaids and guests said that this was the most well run, timed wedding they had been apart of and less stressful wedding they have ever seen. Guests also noted (and we felt it) how truly happy and relaxed the bride and groom were all day and we give most of that credit to Something Fabulous. We trusted them and executed our vision perfectly. We would 10/10 recommend them again and again!

    Truly fabulous!

    I cannot recommend Trent, Ashley, and the entire Something Fabulous team enough! They made the planning process so smooth, easy, and fun. They are knowledgeable, great problem solvers, your biggest cheerleaders, and they know how to throw an amazing party! We ended up using them for both our rehearsal dinner and our wedding, and it was truly the absolute best weekend of our lives. Our friends and family could stop talking about how lucky we were to have Trent running the show on wedding day, and we agree! We could not have had such an incredible wedding weekend without Something Fabulous!

    Great Wedding Planners!

    Words cannot express how grateful we are for Ashley and Trent of Something Fabulous! We live in TX, so we were concerned about the planning process for a wedding in Raleigh. But Something Fabulous made the process easy for us. They made our dream wedding a reality, exceeding all expectations and making the entire journey stress-free and enjoyable. Their organizational skills are unparalleled. From creating a meticulous timeline to managing multiple vendors, everything ran seamlessly. Their creativity was incredible—they took our design ideas and turned them into a stunning, cohesive vision that had the guests in awe. They don't do empty lip service; they will stop and tell you if you're going down the wrong path or suggest better alternatives to achieve the same result. They had a great preferred vendors list, and we recommend using those vendors. We loved and had no communication issues with anyone from their list. Trust their expertise and experience! Ashley and Trent went above and beyond for us. Due to the hectic day, I (the bride) ended up not getting any wedding cake. I was bummed out, but a couple months later, I received a wonderful surprise. Trent reached out to our cake vendor to have our another, smaller cake shipped all the way to Texas! That level of thoughtfulness isn't required nor guaranteed with other planners. If you’re looking for wedding planners who are passionate, dedicated, and treat your day as if it were their own, look no further than Something Fabulous. They are worth every penny, and we cannot recommend them highly enough!

    The best coordinator I could have ever asked for!

    Trent was the freaking BEST!!! Our wedding ran so smoothly thanks to him and his team. He truly took all the stress and worries away. Communication with him was so easy -- he always made himself available. From our initial meeting to the day of the wedding, he was always free to answer any questions and give very helpful tips/opinions. He put a lot of care and attention into our day and I will forever be grateful for him! He was very detailed, super fun and caring, and helped this type-A bride relax and not worry about a thing! I highly recommend Something Fabulous for any planning needs! You will love them :)

    Professional, organized, supportive!

    Working with Something Fabulous was the best decision we made for our wedding! Trent and Rachel were very supportive, helpful and organized leading up to our wedding. They kept us on track for key milestones, gave great suggestions as we were looking for specific ideas and vendors, and were so supportive with vendor communication and logistics leading up to and at the wedding. Rachel and Tommy were our day of support and they helped us feel at ease and covered every detail so that we didn't have to really keep track of anything. Having worked in events, it was amazing to be on the side of experiencing a very well run event. Not having to make any decisions and having everything pre arranged for the weekend of the wedding was amazing. They even made sure we had a few minutes to ourselves where we got to eat and enjoy the food! Huge kudos to Trent, Rachel and Tommy for making our big day simple and flawless so that we could enjoy all of the fun with our family and friends! Highly recommend!

    We LOVE Something Fabulous!!

    Madison with is the best!! She was so communicative and such a pleasure to work with throughout wedding planning. I didn’t have a care in the world on wedding day because I knew Madison and her team were taking care of everything, and she was so fun to chat with I always looked forward to our meetings. I would recommend Something Fabulous to anyone who will listen!!

    Professional, organized, flexible, and so much fun!

    There are no words to describe how grateful we were for Something Fabulous. Ashley and Abby created our day to be everything we wanted and more! They were great communicators, were very organized, and so much fun! My husband and I did not have to worry about anything other than enjoying the wedding because we knew we were in the best hands with Ashley and Abby in charge.

    our favorite vendor

    Trent provided day of planning services for my wedding and I truly cannot say enough about how vital Trent was to executing a seamless and stress-free wedding day, both before the wedding and day of. He was extremely responsive, pro-active, and always had a problem-solving attitude. Trent was by far our favorite vendor we hired and I cannot recommend Something Fabulous enough!

    Do it! Just say “yes” to Something Fabulous.

    We worked mostly with Ashley through our planning process, but also got the chance to work with Trent early on. They are both phenomenal human beings who really care about helping you create an incredible experience. We did the partial planning option which was perfect for us. We knew we could do a lot of the initial coordination with our vendors but needed some structure and guidance to help us get started in terms of vendor selection and understanding how to break down our budget. The tools and resources they provided made it easy for us to select an INCREDIBLE vendor team, and Ashley was available for questions throughout. The final few months leading up to the wedding Ashley took over the coordination with our vendors which allowed us to focus on getting ready for the big day. Ashley and her team who were with us on our wedding day did a fantastic job making sure everything was exactly as we’d hoped. We cannot say enough good things about Ashley, Trent, and the entire Something Fabulous team!

    The PERFECT Tangled Wedding!

    I cannot express how FANTASTIC everyone at Something Fabulous Weddings and Events was to work with. My husband and I went into wedding planning with NO IDEA what we were doing, and Trent and Ashley were so patient and so helpful and did everything they could to ensure that our wedding went perfectly. And I mean perfectly! The entire day of the wedding we (the couple) were stress free and happy, and if anything did go wrong, we had no idea. Trent and Ashley were also AMAZING at really taking our vague ideas of what we wanted and turning them into a full blown vision of the perfect Tangled themed wedding. From décor to seating charts, they were always providing the best suggestions. They also went above and beyond to suggest ways that we could be more budget friendly and still keep our vision the way we wanted it! When we first started our planning process we were stressing about where to even begin when looking for vendors, and all that stress vanished when we were provided with a curated list of vendors based on our budget and vision for the wedding. This saved us SO much time and stress, and really let us focus on the details instead of spending hours reading every review for every local vendor. We cannot express how grateful and thankful we are to the team at Something Fabulous Wedding and Events for helping to ensure that our wedding day was absolutely magical. Hiring them was the absolute best decision that we made for our wedding and given the chance to do it all over (not that we ever would), they would be the first people we would go to. Thank you so much to Something Fabulous Wedding and Events for helping us have the PERFECT wedding.

    Coomer's Wedding

    Upon first meeting Trent and Ashley, My now HUSBAND and I fell in love with their glowing personalities in which brought a very fun, exciting, & special touch to the planning process of our wedding, overall we felt a sense of security knowing that our every need was well taken care of from that point forward. We received a tremendous amount of information from the Something Fabulous team for every little detail that we wanted as well as some very unique and creative ideas that Trent and Ashley recommended to make our day even more special. The ease of communication was truly a huge help and we found that they both were always one step ahead of us with any need that we had, even if we didn't realize it was needed at the time. Looking back on our Wedding, I can say it was absolutely the most beautiful day of our lives and we are thankful to have the guidance and never-ending support of the Something Fabulous team.

    Stress free wedding day

    Ashley and Trent were my day-of-coordinators and they were an amazing duo to work with! We were originally supposed to have our wedding on November 2020 but had to reschedule it twice and they were so understanding and accommodating about it. They were really responsive throughout the whole process and made sure everything was set before the day of the wedding day. On the day of the wedding, they were super organized and made everything run smoothly. If there were any issues or problems, I didn't know about it because they were so good about resolving and dealing with it. I was a DIY bride so I had a lot of decorations that I made and they did an amazing job setting everything up like I wanted.

    The Absolute Best!!!

    Trent was our day-of coordinator for our wedding yesterday and he was a rockstar!! He handled absolutely everything from set up, to making sure people were where they needed to be, to just checking in. I cannot brag on him enough! The amount of time and planning he put in to our big day meant so much and we could tell he really cared. He handled absolutely everything we needed and he didn’t hesitate if we asked him to do something. Hiring Something Fabulous was the BEST decision we could have made and we are so thankful to Trent (and Kari who came to help on the big day)!

    Above and Beyond My Expectations!!

    I had a double wedding with my sister and her husband, and Trent and Ashley handled it like the pros they are. I was nervous that the logistics for a double wedding would be difficult to plan, but Trent and Ashley made it look easy! Our wedding day was absolutely perfect despite being in the middle of a pandemic. All of their design ideas were super helpful and brought together our vision for the wedding day. They were flexible when we decided to postpone the wedding reception and were very professional in their communication. I would 1000% recommend Something Fabulous Weddings if you want the wedding of your dreams!!

    Seamless planning and fantastic people!

    Trent and Ashley were the secret to our successful wedding! We hired them for day-of coordination/event management. We were immediately impressed by how easy they were to talk to and how detail-oriented they were. Even when we were many months out from our wedding, they were incredibly communicative, and they were understanding and flexible when we had to move our wedding date due to COVID. Once we were a few months out from the wedding, we had a thorough final details meeting where we talked through all the little things—everything from ceremony plans to what kind of napkin fold we wanted at the reception! We used a venue with a very short window for set-up, and they coordinated with all of our vendors to make sure everything was set up in record time and even picked up our cake for us! The whole day, they were working behind the scenes to make sure everything went according to plan, and I didn’t feel like I had to worry at all—they knew what needed to be done much better than I did! Ultimately, everything went fabulously due to their incredible work. I can’t recommend them highly enough.

    Book. Them. Now.

    Stop reading this review and book these planners! Best decision of our wedding by far! The day of, we didn't have to lift a single finger because of them! Our whole bridal party got to relax and drink mimosas while they worked their butts off and made our wedding dreams come true! 🥰

    In the weeks leading up to our wedding they were very responsive to every email, and took care of contacting all our vendors. Trent and Ashley were patient and understanding when we decided to change our layout 3 times. Trent went to our venue with us to help pick out furniture for our rental space, go over our layout and had great input to help with all of our decisions. I have horrible indecisiveness and Trent was so incredibly helpful with this!

    We met with Trent multiple times virtually and in person and we felt so at ease and knew Something Fabulous was the perfect fit and they are incredibly well priced. They also have great vendor recommendations and connections (shout-out to our DJ, Willis, at Willis J Entertainment!)

    ALSO. The bustle on my dress busted and the second it happened both Trent and Ashley were right there with a repair kit helping me fix it and kept me from panicking! I can't say it enough. BOOK.THEM.NOW!

    Your Wedding Fairy Godparents

    These two made my wedding day an absolute success and I cannot recommend them enough. The number of things they take off your plate and handle with such ease was truly remarkable. Even things I thought I could handle - nope, they just swoop in. Their advice/suggestions made the final details (aka the ones you didn't even know you had to decide on or even think about) a breeze to resolve. Bonus: A year later on your anniversary, your friends will still talk about how Trent and Ashley did such an amazing job and how your wedding was one of the best they've ever attended.

    Highly Recommend!

    As a result of Covid, our wedding was postponed twice and ultimately our plans changed from having a wedding and reception to having an event to celebrate our elopement. Trent, from Something Fabulous, was there for support and advice throughout all of the changes. He promptly responded to any questions that we had and met with us several times virtually and in-person to make sure that we were all on the same page. In addition, Trent was highly organized and professional. He worked with us to create a timeline before our event and did a fantastic job of ensuring that the timeline was followed on the night of the event. Many of our guests commented on how organized he was and how smoothly everything went. Trent has a great personality and is very easy to work with. I would highly recommend Trent from Something Fabulous!

    Best planners ever

    Trent and Ashley are the best wedding planners/coordinators you could ask for! They really took the stress out of planning a wedding. On the day of the wedding, we didn't have to worry about anything. Trent and Ashley made sure everything ran smoothly and it was just how we pictured it would be. Worth every penny, and more! Not only are they great at what they do, they are great people too.

    Amazing experience with Trent and Ashley

    I hired Something Fabulous as partial planners. They helped me choose some vendors including the perfect fit officiant for us. They understood my vision and brought it to life. They took care of everything they day of wedding (vendors, flipping rhe ceremony room to the reception, keeping time line on track)and my bridal party had to do nothing but have fun. So so worth hiring them. When your wedding is approaching and you think you have everything , they will make sure you didn't forget something or a detail like your welcome sign! It was an amazing day, one I will never forget and I am so glad Something Fabulous was there to make it go so smoothly. I had no stress the day of wedding wirh Trent handling everything.

    The perfect duo!

    Ashley and Trent were absolutely incredible to work with. We knew from the first time we met them that they were the right fit for our needs. They are two best friends and complement one another in all the perfect ways. They are fun, responsive, organized, and truly experts in this field. Not to mention so affordable compared to others in this market. We went with the full wedding package and they delivered plus more! Given Covid-19 they went above and beyond to organize and handle all of our vendor needs when we had to postpone. We had regular meetings and updates along the way. Unfortunately, we ended up cancelling our wedding due to Covid-19 and other life circumstances. Even after a year of this mess they continued to show up and never stopped advocating for us in the end. If you want anyone on your side for this special moment in your life, I mean it when I say this duo will blow you out of the water. We are forever grateful! Love, The Shriver Family
