Working with Karen was such a pleasant experience, from the very first meeting until the final celebration. She was incredibly proactive, consistently reminding us of important deadlines and keeping everything on track without ever making us feel overwhelmed. Throughout it all, she was easy to reach and always responsive, which gave us so much peace of mind.
On the day of the wedding, she was exactly the calm, steady presence my wedding party and I needed. No matter what came up—and of course, there are always a few unexpected moments—she handled everything with grace and composure. Her ability to manage challenges with such serenity allowed us to fully enjoy our day without stress or distraction.
I’m so grateful for her support, organization, and professionalism. She played a huge role in making our wedding day feel seamless and joyful. -

The best experience
Karen made all of the difference in the planning and prep and on the actual day. She was calm, organized, thoughtful, and flexible. She kept us on track with detailed emails and to do lists throughout planning. We never had to wonder what we should be doing. We even threw in some last minute ideas that she was able to seamlessly add to the schedule and coordinate across trades. Karen is an expert in her field. We are beyond grateful we got to work with her. -

The best planner ever!
Karen was amazing!! She made our wedding day run so smoothly and we’d recommend her to anyone in need of a wedding planner. Her personality is so calming and as the bride I didn’t have to stress about a single thing the day of our wedding. Cannot say enough great things about her! -

I was very hesitant to have a full blown wedding. It seemed expensive and exhausting on top of a full time job. How would I find the time? I didn’t even know where to start! I learned about Winey Blonde Events after solidifying my venue. That was truly all we had done and that was by sheer luck. After my first call with Karen, I just knew. We got along swimmingly and she really loved this whole wedding business. She made ME love it. I was just was excited for her emails and our meetings as I was for my first date with my now husband! Karen (and Avery!) genuinely cared and made the whole ordeal zero stress. By our wedding day, we could sit back and enjoy the ride with full confidence that everything would be absolutely amazing. We are blessed to have met this team and forever grateful for all of their time and efforts. I recommend them to all of my newly engaged pals! If you’re on the fence this is the one. -

Sophia Sent on 05/19/2023Perfectly executed every aspect of our dream wedding
We had the BEST experience working with Winey Blonde in the month leading up to our wedding. Bethany and her team worked well with all our vendors and gave us excellent advice. When we had specific ideas, Bethany nailed the execution, and when we were less knowledgeable about certain aspects of the planning, she guided us with the experience of an industry pro. Admittedly, I was initially skeptical about working with a coordinator-- is it in our budget? Can't we do all this ourselves? But looking back, working with Winey Blonde was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Incredible experience. Thank you, Bethany and WB!

Winey Blonde Events helped create the wedding of our dreams! Every step of the way they were there to answer any of our questions and solve any problems we encountered. Our wedding planner Avery, was FANTASTIC! She went above and beyond for us. The day of the wedding I felt completely at ease because she took care of everything. She even helped me put my veil back on before I went down the aisle! We will always remember Avery because she helped make the most special day of our lives perfect! If you are reading this review, considering if you should trust Winey Blonde Events with your special day, don't hesitant, just book them! -

Hiring Winey Blondes to plan our wedding was one of the best decisions we made during the planning process. As you get to the end of the planning and the wedding gets closer, serious fatigue sets in. However, Karen, who was our planner, was the best at helping with this. She helped me make informed decisions and gave advice based on her years of experience. The things I thought were “big deals” she solved in no time. She was flexible, easy going, and EXTREMELY organized. She gave us a workbook to fill out throughout the planning process which helped keep us on track and organized. We met with her frequently and she helped us add things to the list and cross others off. She also was our day of coordinator. Looking back, this is the one position at the wedding that is invaluable. She kept people organized, answered questions so I didn’t have to, solved problems that came up, kept us on time, pinned up my bustle when it broke, packed up the getaway car with my things, sent us with food, handled the marriage license….and so many other things that are probably behind the scenes I don’t even know about. WORTH EVERY PENNY. Do yourself a favor and hire Winey Blondes to plan your wedding!! -

Winey Blonde was recommended to me through friends and family and I couldn't be happier with the service Bethany and WBE provided for me leading up to my wedding day. My only regret was not having hired them sooner in the planning process! I really appreciated how helpful, responsive and professional they were and Bethany felt like a friend to me throughout the whole process - always ready to help talk things through and work through the pros and cons of every decision. Thank you again!!! -

Bethany from WBE is an incredible human being with a sharp eye for details and friendly personality. She was an absolute star at our wedding - from setting up the ceremony site to directing the other vendors, nothing went unnoticed or forgotten. She was prepared for everything, even had safety pins when my dress wasn’t bustling correctly. Truly could not imagine this day without her! -

Victoria Sent on 01/17/2021The most valuable vendor we worked with!
Britt is absolutely amazing!! I have no idea how we would have gotten through the wedding planning process without her. Britt was incredibly accommodating, insightful, friendly, professional and organized. Our consultation meeting was a breeze and she seemed to completely understand our vision for our wedding and recommended outstanding vendors for us to work with. Britt was already very familiar with our wedding venue, Kaya Vineyard & Winery, and when the big day finally arrived, I didn't have a single thing to stress about. I cannot thank her and the Winey Blonde team enough!! If you're wanting help during the wedding planning process, you cannot go wrong with Winey Blonde!! Britt's help made all the difference in the world! -

We were so thankful to have Karen at Winey Blonde Event Co. as a part of our wedding! She was professional and responsive and after every meeting we had with her leading up to our big day I always felt at ease. As a "Type A" bride who wanted to make sure every detail was perfect the day of, I am so glad that Karen was there to make sure I enjoyed my day rather than obsessing over all the details. She coordinated with all of the vendors and everything was perfect. Highly recommended. -

Excellent service!
Brittany Moss of Winey Blonde Events made our wedding planning and day of the best day any bride could ask for. She is the kindest, most professional and efficient coordinator there is on the market. It was the best day of my life and Britt made sure it was the most beautiful and flawless day. 10/10 would recommend her for any event. -

Britt was our wedding planner for our big day, and we couldn't have done it without her! Our space had a limited time frame, and she was able to keep the night organized so we could get everything in we wanted to. She also helped to set up the wedding decorations, and it all came together exactly as I imagined, down to every detail. She set aside food and our signature cocktails to make sure we had a chance to experience all the things we'd been planning for so long. Your wedding day goes so fast, and it was great to have someone so organized and responsive to keep things running smoothly! I would highly recommend using their services. -

Seriously, we could not have done it without her.
We had a pretty complicated wedding with lots of customization and moving parts. From the time we hired her, Karen kept on top of things and stayed on task without stressing us out. She brought up things we never would have thought of and gave us options and guidance when we were lost in the process. Karen was able to organize everyone, manage timing, keep us on track, and remind us to enjoy our moment - all without seemingly breaking a sweat. If you think you don't need a day-of planner, I am telling you to think again. Karen was worth every penny.
She's a goddess among wedding planners and we were very fortunate to have her with us on our big day! ♥ -

We worked with Britt for our wedding at Kaya Vineyards, and the whole experience couldn't have been better. Britt was fantastic - she was very responsive, organized, and helpful with allll of my many questions. She gave me guidance and advice, and somehow - she understood my vision PERFECTLY, even though I always found it difficult to articulate. She is more than a wedding planner, she is your best friend when planning your wedding and I am so thankful. I never once thought about how things were going on the day-of, I knew Britt had everything covered. So, look no further - you've come to the right place. -

I have to say that the best decision I ever made, besides saying yes to my husband, was yes to Erin from Winey Blonde Events! Erin was fantastic and made my special day easier. I couldn't have had a better coordinator, especially being an out of town bride. She made the process and our wedding day just special and easy. Thank you for making that day wonderful and would definitely recommend Winey Blonde Events to anyone, and if you have Erin, you are in luck! -

Wonderful!
Winey Blonde Events was absolutely fabulous to work with! We got married 11/10/18 in Charleston, SC (destination wedding) and could not have been happier with all the guidance and help from Winey Blonde Events. Alyssa was who we worked with the most and she was fabulous! She was easy to work with and I never felt pushed in a direction that I didn't want to go or was unsure about. From the beginning, Alyssa and Karen helped get me on track with the planning process and from the first meeting on, I felt very at ease with the whole planning process. All thanks to them! And as for our wedding day, I could not have been happier with how Alyssa made everything run so smoothly! It was such a wonderful day and I am so happy I chose Winey Blonde Events to help plan the whole thing! I absolutely recommend them and am so pleased with my whole experience working with them! -

I don't think I could have planned my wedding without Winey Blonde. They exceeded any expectations I had of wedding planning, and made the entire day a breeze. My MIL and FIL were so pleased with everything they helped with, and how calm and collected they kept everybody. Everything went off without a hitch and I didn't worry about a thing! Not only are they professional, they are genuinely nice people and care about your day as much as you do. -

Lori Sent on 05/10/2018We hired Winey Blonde Events RJ coordinate our daughter’s wedding and were blown away at the professionalism and service we were provided! Alyssa was our coordinator and from day one, she put us at ease that she could help execute our vision. We had multiple meetings with her prior to the wedding and she was in constant contact to make sure we stayed on track. Alyssa was the “executive producer” of our event and made sure everything went smoothly. Our goal was to give our daughter a beautiful and fun wedding and one that we could enjoy. Alyssa coordinated our vendors and we did not have to worry about anything on the wedding day! She had every detail planned and executed flawlessly! My husband and I both agreed the service provided by Winey Blonde Events coordinator was a tremendous value, worth every penny! We were so very pleased and would recommend them without question!

Leigh Sent on 02/06/2018Alyssa Causey was the most amazing wedding planner! She was creative, supportive, and responsive to our needs. From the initial ideas to the organizing and execution of our plans, she guided and supported us through it all. We could not imagine a better wedding planner. She kept in constant touch with us and all of the vendors to make sure everything ran smoothly. The wedding day was magical. We were able to relax, knowing that Alyssa and her crew had everything under control. Many of our friends and family members commented about the amazing job that Alyssa did with everything. She is not only professional, but friendly and fun, a true joy to work with. Thank you again for making our wedding so peaceful and beautiful!

Haley Sent on 12/14/2016Karen and her whole time are so wonderful. She made my entire wedding planning process easy and stress free. At first I didn't see the significance of having a wedding planner and I could not have been more wrong. Without Karen my wedding would have been chaotic and stressful, she organized the wedding day down to the minute in some cases and it made everything so easy and allowed me, my husband, and my family to enjoy ourselves without having to worry about all the little details that come with your wedding day. Karen you are the best, thank you for everything!! -
![Paige]()
Paige Sent on 02/10/2020Severely Dissapointed
We felt confident using Winey Blonde for our day of coordination for our wedding last September—their services were a part of the contract we signed with our venue (Kaya Vineyard and Winery). They came highly recommended. We read their reviews online and were excited to have assistance coordinating all of our amazing vendors and executing our vision. Everything went smoothly throughout the initial phases of the planning process—we had Britt, who was responsive and cordial throughout the planning process. I enjoyed meeting with her in person and coordinating with her during the months leading up until our wedding. During our rehearsal, we had a couple of minor issues (i.e., outdated information relating to bridal party members/processional order discussed in previous meetings), but we were able to correct these issues.
I’ve hesitated writing this review because I am aware of the reputation this company has along with its individual planners; however, I could not have been more disappointed in them. It makes me sad because I felt like I clicked well with Britt, but the execution of our wedding the day of fell flat and the responsibility of coordinating the event fell on important members of our bridal party and family. They, too, less than ideal experiences and were frustrated with the quality of “event coordination” that occurred that day. I’ve included their statements below, so as not to replicate multiple reviews reflecting the same experience/event:
“I arrived on time to drop off the cross to be used for the wedding ceremony and asked the wedding coordinator (Britt) if I could have someone help me get it out of my truck, as it was too heavy for me to lift by myself. She rudely dismissed me and walked away while I waited for 20 minutes and finally asked some of the caterers (Talk of the Town) to help me move it. Thankfully, they did. Because of this, I was late for my first look with my daughter and she, consequentially, had to forfeit time for photos with the bridal party. Later in the evening, I was told there would be no time for me to say a few words after introducing my daughter and her husband. As the father of the bride, this was deeply upsetting and I did not enjoy having to explain to my daughter, when she later asked, why I wasn’t able to say more. This was a moment I planned for, looked forward to, and ultimately lost. The representative for this company did not showcase competence and/or friendliness during this special event, and I was grossly disappointed.” R.R. (Father of the Bride)
“I was Paige’s Maid of Honor and I’m going to keep the summary of my experience short because it honestly makes me so mad thinking about it. My biggest issue with Britt was her lack of professionalism and readiness to let the bride know about issues occurring throughout the evening…really can’t get over that. Myself, and Paige’s Matron of Honor, told Britt (both during the rehearsal and day of) to let US know if there were any issues that needed to be remedied, and instead she chose to tell Paige. When it did come to remedying issues, we had to be the ones to suggest ideas and try to come up with solutions while Britt made statements to us like ‘I feel like I could be doing better’ and ‘I don’t know how we’re going to fix this.’ I would definitely NOT recommend these services to anyone.” E.W. (Maid of Honor)
“I was passing out programs and had to ask Britt where I was supposed to stand and she responded shortly and rudely. She explained my job to me, as if I didn’t know how to hand out programs, in a belittling tone. It appeared as though she was stressed about something, but it was completely uncalled for. Definitely nothing like I’ve experienced working with wedding planners at both my own and other weddings.” L.G. (Cousin of Groom)
I personally had some surprisingly negative experiences with Britt during our wedding night. First, I asked her to bring the corsages for my family members to the event venue while we took photos. She forgot them (not a big deal), and let me know while I was waiting to walk down the aisle with my Dad. I was annoyed, but offered her the code to the cabin we were staying at on the Kaya property. She said she’d go get them during the ceremony, but I later found out this didn’t happen because apparently the code didn’t work--though it worked fine for my bridesmaids to utilize it before, during, and after the reception. This upset me because 1) there were multiple Kaya employees available who could have helped remedy this situation and 2) the people I wanted to be made to feel special were not able to receive their gifts and the corsages wilted from being left out. Therefore, all the money spent on them was wasted. I just felt as though there was a lack of problem-solving skills present and something small like this should have been easily remedied without my knowledge. Second, during our meetings I detailed to Britt exactly how I needed the time after the ceremony but between the reception to go in order to get all of our family pictures, I intentionally placed people, according to Britt’s seating chart, in the first three rows and they were NOT to be dismissed following the ceremony so Walker and I could return and we could get pictures with them. We have multiple older family members, so this was to ensure ease and comfort for them as well as organize everyone so we could take our pictures quickly and efficiently to allow for us to have time for some romantic sunset photos. This was not communicated properly and, therefore, people did not remain in their seats. Sadly, we were not able to find all of our family members for photos and Walker and I did not have time to take any romantic sunset photos (one of the reasons we chose Kaya in the first place).
In addition to these experiences, my Matron of Honor and several other bridal party/family members had less than ideal experiences working with this company. Though I was thankful these people were able to step in and work to make sure our wedding turned out well, I was completely heartbroken that they had to. These were people I wanted to enjoy our evening with us, and they were not able to. I did not hear my father’s speech, barely saw my Matron of Honor (who was working behind the scenes to help Britt coordinate), and was devastated to hear over and over again how negatively people viewed a highly recommended vendor. I’m sad our wedding was the exception to their five-star service in this case. If I could change one thing about my wedding, I would have sought my own day of coordinator, even though Winey Blonde is partnered with Kaya Vineyard and Winery. I waited several months to write this review because I wasn’t sure how to properly detail our experience, and I was afraid of hurting people. I decided to because, while I can look back on my wedding day and be thankful for all the things that did go right, I know they were not because of this company.
