I’ve worked in everything from venue management, catering to festival planning and corporate events but my first love is all things WEDDINGS!

As a wedding planner and floral designer, I get to merge my love for sculpture, flowers and weddings all into one. My sole purpose is to make sure my clients are at ease knowing their event is tailored specifically to them! Your wedding will tell the story of YOU!

Morgan Williams Weddings 

5.0

  • Offers 2 services
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Columbia, SC

As a wedding professional, I know that proactivity breeds peacefulness. In a culture that is quick to devalue self-sacrifice and commitment, I am grateful to hold an extremely high view of marriage. I believe that the steadfast love that undergirds such a sacred, covenantal promise is one of the biggest gifts this life has to offer. I am deeply committed to proactively stewarding each and every detail of your wedding experience in a way that fosters peace and presence — all while leading your chosen team of vendors to success.

We hired Morgan to help us with wedding coordination for our big day as a month-of/day-of coordinator. From the get-go, she was very easy to communicate with and always available when we needed to talk through anything. She was well-prepared for all of our pre-wedding meetings, and willing to take on anything we asked her to do, including communicating with our vendors. She made sure we were on-task with getting our vendors booked and décor and music decisions made in plenty of time. Her attention to detail is unmatched, and she made my vision for the day come to life in every way. She will spoil you, say yes to all the little things, and make you feel so loved and taken care of! I had complete confidence in her and her team on wedding day and the only nervous feelings I had were the normal, fun, wedding jitters! She was an absolute rockstar, ensuring that even when little things went slightly awry, she had a back-up plan that made the wedding day go so smoothly. My caterers ran behind, but she adjusted our reception order of events to still maximize our time on the dance floor - which she knew was a major priority for us. She made sure that an unexpected trip to Food Lion was made to add some color to our florals when our florist got things mixed up. She made sure my husband and I had our vehicle packed with extra wedding food and drink for our send off, and it made our honeymoon afterwards such a restful experience free of meal prep, haha! Family and friends even said she and her team did an amazing job with organizing the after-wedding cleanup and made wonderful comments about her when we returned home from our honeymoon. Not only that, Morgan can keep a secret (or 3!) for ya! I planned so many surprises for my husband on our wedding day, and she helped me pull them off successfully, communicating with our vendors, videoing little snippets, taking pictures, and capturing so many moments throughout the entire day. My only regret is that we didn't get a picture with her to commemorate the adventure of wedding planning we all went on together throughout that season of our lives! Without a doubt, Morgan played a pivotal role in making our wedding day the most wonderful day of our lives, and we would highly recommend her and her team for coordinating your wedding!
