Sara at Stunning and Brilliant Events should be the first hire you make after you get engaged and purchase your dress! She is wonderful and on top of everything. She was always available by phone or email. NEver had a problem answering any questions or suggesting ideas if you needed help. She will make your wedding the most brilliant and stunning event ever, thus she lives up to the name of her business! She took an early disaster at our reception and nicked it in the bud and made our reception the best ever!!! Thank you Sara for all you did! -

Sara, Natalie, and the whole S & B team made our day more perfect than I could have ever imagined! We were in the planning stages with Sara for around 18 months and she held my hand the entire way. Our guest list started at over 600 (!!!) and Sara never batted an eye. We eventually got it down to a more "reasonable" 420, and she and her team carried off the most perfect wedding I've ever seen (I'm only a little biased ;) ). Before our big day, Sara was in constant contact with me and I never had the need to worry or panic about all of the details coming together because I knew she had it handled. My fiance and I live 3 hours away from the venue (Debordieu Club), and it made me nervous to not be close by, but Sara handled everything perfectly and just as me and my type A personality would have if I had been there myself ;). I honestly could go on and on, but I'll leave it at this: even my father, who paid for everything, still talks about how great Sara and her team are nearly 3 months after our wedding! He's used the phrase "worth their weight in gold" more than once. I wouldn't dream of throwing an event in the Carolinas (or anywhere else, for that matter) without hiring Stunning and Brilliant Events! -

Stunning & Brilliant Events was incredible! They took care of everything and made my wedding and reception amazing and stress free! They were there to help any time I had questions and they took care of all of the details! They had awesome ideas and suggestions and helped me tremendously! I strongly recommend hiring them for any event! Sara and her staff took care of everything and did a great job! They also helped me save money and stay within my budget! Several people told me that my wedding reception was the best they had ever been to! Stunning & Brilliant Events went above and beyond to make my reception fantastic! They helped pick items up for me, they completely decorated and arranged everything at the wedding and reception, afterwards they cleaned up and made sure all of my belonging were returned to me, they even made sure that my fiance and I had plenty of extra food and cake from the reception that was waiting for us when we got back to our hotel! -

I had the best experience working with them!!
I had the best experience working with Sara and her team!! The wedding went through seamlessly and was so beautiful. Sara was extremely helpful with any needs before and during the wedding and was able to perfectly capture my vision of the day. After the wedding, I had several bridesmaids comment on how the whole day was organized so well compared to other weddings they have been in. I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of a wedding planner! -

I can not say enough about how wonderful Sara Barnhill and Stunning & Brillian Events is!! Sara is very organized, very creative, and she can work with any budget. My husband and I live in Pittsburgh, PA and we didn't know anything about Myrtle Beach from getting a marriage license, to what vendors to use, to the proper wording for our invitations and Sara helped us with it all! She took a very small budget and made a magical wedding that our family and friends still talk about to this day. Sara truly was and still is a blessing and it was my greatest honor to work with her. She made our wedding day absoultley wonderful while adding that southern charm we needed to have a fabulous time. I love Sara and cherish everything she did for us. I highgly recommend her!! -

The Best in the Business!
I can't say enough great things about Sara, Dallas, Caroline and & the team at Stunning & Brilliant Events. From the second that I spoke with Sara McCall when I called to inquire about a wedding planner, she was so funny and personable. I immediately felt comfortable talking to her, and she also called me back within seconds (whereas other planners that I called took hours to call me back). After I booked Sara as my planner, when people or vendors would ask who my planner was, they would say "Oh my gosh, Sara and her team are the best. You're in great hands!" Based on the extremely positive feedback from so many people/vendors, I knew that I made the right decision hiring them.
Dallas was my month-of planner, and she was truly spectacular. She always had a smile on her face and had a fun spirit about her. She was ON IT, and she took so much off of my plate. She communicated with all off my vendors which made me feel much less stressed throughout the last couple of weeks leading up to my wedding. On the weekend of the wedding, she was so organized and prepared. The rehearsal went great and was quick which was nice. On our wedding day, she and her team came to check in on me and my bridesmaids several times as well as my husband and his groomsmen. They literally fixed my mom's hem in her dress. They had drinks for us as soon as we got married and throughout the entire night. I don't think I ever went to the bar lol. They also got appetizers for us and had our dinner waiting at our table as soon as the food came out. They literally do EVERYTHING, and it was so nice to not have to think about anything on our big day! Dallas, Caroline and their team were fun and everyone in my family LOVED them. My guests could not stop talking about how great and organized they were. Needless to say, they were a HIT. I wouldn't change a thing about my wedding. Hiring them was the best decision that I made. Sara & Dallas, thank you and your team for everything! -

Sara and her staff made our wedding day absolutely perfect! I planned my Charleston, SC wedding from afar and found her late in the planning process. She helped me bring everything together and finish all the little details. She was very accommodating on the day of our wedding and made the day go by seamless. I highly recommend!! -

+Sara, Kristen, and Erin were outstanding.
No request or problem was too small or too great. Each request was met with a “can do” attitude and accomplished quickly and as we asked.
We recommend Stunning and Brilliant Events without reservation.

They're Amazing! Please Hire Them
If you’re hesitating about getting a planner or day of coordinator, do it. And if you’re confused on which one to book, go through Stunning and Brilliant Events. It’ll be the best purchase for your wedding day.
Alyssa Gore was able to customize my package. Initially, I was searching for a day of coordinator, but I upgraded to the month of coordination, and Alyssa was able to work within my budget. She is so easy to talk to and communication with her went smoothly. She set me up to work with Ally Shuford.
Now Ally and her team did an amazing job! She let me be hands on when I wanted to be and she took so much stress off my shoulders. She listened to my every need and it reflected on my wedding day. When we walked through the venue, she took thorough notes, asked questions for clarification. She wanted to get everything right. She had a few layouts for the venue and even changed the layout when I asked her to put the dj near the dance floor. On the day of the wedding, Ally and her team came out and set everything up beautifully. The timeline of events went smoothly, and I was able to enjoy myself without worry. Towards the end of the night, my husband and I were getting tired and wanted to end the wedding 30 minutes early. I communicated that to Ally and her team were able to adjust and began the send off when we were ready. I loved every bit of my wedding day and Stunning and Brilliant events helped take most of the stress off my shoulders. Please hire them, the value is great, and the team is helpful and professional. My wedding was 6-7 months ago, and I still rave to my friends about how great Alyssa, Ally, and the team were. -

Incredible!!
Sara is absolutely outstanding! She made the wedding planning process so smooth for us and truly made our dreams a reality. She is so talented and amazing at what she does! She is very responsive and will do everything she can to ensure you're getting the best quality and deal while making wedding day arrangements. On the day of my wedding Sara and Nicole made sure everything went smoothly and that I had no stress put on me. I will be forever thankful for all they did to make our Wedding day perfect! -

Sara and team were incredible to work with for our wedding!
We got married on 10/13/2018 at DeBordieu and started working with Sara about 11 months before our wedding. From the first phone call we had with her, we knew she would be able to help bring our vision of having an elegant, fun southern wedding to life! Throughout the entire process leading up to our wedding, Sara was extremely organized and responded quickly to all of our questions. She helped make timelines to keep us on track, set up necessary vendor meetings for us, provided a lot of thoughtful guidance throughout the process, and helped with all of the weekend and day-of logistics. Sara is very well connected to tons of wedding vendors in the Myrtle Beach/Georgetown area. Since she has worked with many different vendors, she can provide a lot of insight into who might be the best fit based on what you are looking for from a personality, style and budget standpoint. Sara is friendly, outgoing and clearly has a passion for her work! She makes sure the entire day runs smoothly and helps make your wedding look polished and come together with no stress for the bride. I didn't have to worry about anything on the day of my wedding, since I knew Sara had coordinated with all the vendors, was overseeing the set up, and made sure I had taken care of any last "to-dos" well before the wedding weekend. Do yourself a favor and hire Stunning & Brilliant Events to help coordinate your wedding day. They are simply AMAZING! -

7/24/21 Proposal
Sara from Stunning & Brilliant Events did a great job! I had a vision in mind and when I shared with them about what I wanted and what my budget was they were more than happy to help me. They are very good at responding by email as quick as they can and make sure to answer all questions and they do a great job at following up with you to make sure that everything meets your needs. The day of my proposal I was completely blown away of how everything looked so professional as if it was from a movie of some sort. Picture Perfect!
Thank You so much! -

Amazing service!!! Thank you!
Sara McCall and her team did an amazing job planning, coordinating and executing a perfect wedding day for my husband and I! We could not be more grateful to have been able to work with such an incredible team! We engaged S&B Events for partial planning services - up to 80hrs plus day-of services. However, what we received felt like a full time commitment to planning the wedding of our dreams! Living in California planning a wedding in South Carolina was challenging for my husband and I; but once we engaged S&B Events, Sara did an a wonderful job of keeping us on track and coordinating with all of our vendors. She helped with major items - such as coordinating with the Church wedding director, working with the catering contact at the venue, securing our marriage license and arranging rentals, including linens and seat cushions. She went above and beyond to assist with smaller tasks as well - such as picking up the groom’s suit from dry cleaning, picking up special cupcakes for our guests with dietary restrictions and filling out checks for day-of payments to other vendors!! She truly thought of everything and we will forever be grateful for her patience and organization skills. We highly recommend S&B events for any of your future event planning needs!! -

Perfect Day
Karen, Payton, and the rest of the S&B team were incredible from start to finish! Everything on our wedding day went unbelievably smoothly and if anything did go wrong it never made it to us because Karen handled it. From the start of the process until the very end Karen and S&B were over the top helpful. We could never in a million years have coordinated the wedding the way they did. They were perfect in every aspect from vendor selection, to on the fly adjustments for rain, to making sure we ate and always had champagne available/in our hands. This was truly the best day in our lives and we give S&B a massive chunk of the credit for that. -

S&B month of coordinator
Sarah made the last month of wedding planning go so much smoother and really helped my stress level. We couldn’t have done the day of wedding without her! She was truly wonderful to work with and herded all the cats all day long which made for a beautiful seamless wedding day! Money well spent. -

Perfect Proposal:)
First off, thank you thank you thank you sooo much Sara!!! I can't say it enough!!!
I found Sara through a random Google search, I don't believe she was even on the top of the Google search engine (which she should be), but thankfully the first 2 phone numbers I dialed did not answer, because she did, and that was the start of my absolutely amazing seamless experience.
I needed assistance with a proposal while out of state. My girlfriend and I had a road trip planned in which I wanted to pop the question. Considering I wasn't presently available Sara was in charge of every detail (sight unseen) which required a lot of trust on my part.
She literally went to a location in which she initially helped me select, she recorded the surrounding area and sent me a video for approval and so I can see exactly where everything was going to take place. She coordinated an excursion involving another company that was part of our grand idea. She provided the photographer, an individual for drone video footage, all the decorations with candles, rose petals, etc; she had me select favorite pictures in which she printed and framed, she asked that I create a list of favorite songs to be played in the background... I can go on and on describing details that she thought of that I didn't even think to think of! She is definitely a savant at what she does and she didn't miss a beat during the entire process!!
I will definitely use her when we are ready to tie the knot, and I would without hesitation recommend her to anyone I personaly know or anyone reading this rant of a review!!! Thanks again Sara!!! I can't imagine things going more perfectly than they did:)-

Alyssa and the S&B Charleston team is a 10 out of 5!!!
I first met Alyssa in 2019 when she booked the venue I used to work at for her 2021 rehearsal dinner. Over the last couple of years, Alyssa and I developed a phenomenal working relationship, as we both referred each other business, so there was never a doubt in my mind that I would hire her and the S&B team for my own wedding! THANK YOU a MILLION TIMES to Alyssa, Ashley, Michaela and Kailie for making sure our day went flawlessly. It was absolutely perfect!! -
