From Coast to Toast LLC 

5.0

  • Offers 3 services
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Southern Shores, NC

My passion for making dreams come true started in 2017 when I entered the floral industry fresh out of college. During my seven year career as a floral designer, I was given an opportunity to try out event coordination at a company in Greensboro. After being thrust into the event world, I very quickly realized that my personable disposition, intuitive nature, and ability to make important decisions in a timely and professional manner gave me an excellent skill set for the wedding planning industry. Now with years of experience under my belt, I'm excited to own and operate my own wedding business in the Outer Banks!

Jennifer was the Day-Of-Coordinator for our wedding day! But even before our wedding day, she was incredible to work with from the start (booking) to finish (wedding day)! You can tell by the quality of her work and by the way she goes about her business that she both 1) truly cares about her clients and 2) truly loves what she does! Throughout the planning process Jennifer was flexible and attentive, working with us to a create a vision board to ensure our vision of the day and florals would come to life! Throughout the planning process, Jennifer was very responsive to emails and video calls, never letting 24 hours go by without hearing back which put us at ease! She truly listened to our vision for the day, and she absolutely delivered and helped to make our dream day come to life. The florals Jennifer put together (bouquets, cross arrangement, table arrangements, and a stunning hanging display to name a few!) were absolutely breath-taking and beautiful, better than anything I could have imagined! Not only that, Jennifer was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was extremely kind, caring, and authentic as she helped to coordinate the wedding. She communicated seamlessly with vendors and put out all the fires that came her way, and there were a few!! But she did so in a way that reflected professionally on her business and us as her clients. If it was not for Jennifer, I truly believe we would have had so many disasters on our wedding day, but she truly was the glue holding everything together and keeping everything running smoothly!! The most sweet part was that I was truly unaware of most of the mishaps until after-the-fact because Jennifer handled everything so well, and always came up to me with a smile, a thumbs up, and left with a wink! She put out all the fires that came her way and did it with such grace, kindness, and professionalism! I would 1000% recommend From Coast to Toast Wedding Coordination and Jennifer’s services to anyone having a wedding in the Kitty Hawk/Nags Head/Coastal area. You will not be disappointed. Our wedding probably would have been a disaster if it wasn't for Jennifer! And not only that, sh created BEAUTIFUL floral arrangements, installations, bouquets, and boutonnières for us that made everything look so beautiful. We can't Jennifer enough for all that she did for us! #1 Vendor! Thank you, Jennifer, from the bottom of our hearts! If I could, I would give From Coast to Toast a 20/10 review!!

Katie and her team were amazing to work with! We had rented out a large vacation house as our venue, so we had to bring in everything ourselves as far as setting up tables/chairs, linens, decor, etc. Not only did Katie deliver on this and make sure everything I imagined in my head came to life, but her calming presence always made me feel like no matter what, everything was going to be ok and get done. She truly made sure we had the wedding of our dreams! I cannot say enough great things about Katie and her team. You will not be disappointed if you work with Lotus Events for your wedding!

Specializing in full-service wedding planning and coordination, we design experiences that go beyond the expected, creating celebrations that are as unique as the people at the heart of them. Our approach is rooted in thoughtful curation and intentional design, ensuring that every detail reflects your story.

Awarded Best of Zola
The KnightCo. Events team was absolutely incredible from the beginning to the end. My venue required us to have a coordinator, but I was really skeptical about whether I needed one. Now that I've gone through the entire process, I can confidently say yes, you do need one, and yes, it should be KnightCo. Events! Chynna was always available to answer my questions in the months leading up to my destination wedding. She was actively engaged in every meeting with our venue, even the early morning ones with a 3 hour time difference. Once the package officially kicked in 6 weeks out, KCE took over all of the communication with vendors, which allowed me to take a break from the planning. It was hard for me to give up control, but it was ultimately worth it, especially as we got closer to the wedding day. When one of our vendors was 2 hours late on the day of the wedding, Chynna stepped in and was able to clear everything up within minutes of me notifying her. Chynna felt like another one of my best friends on the wedding day—there to offer me lipstick, a makeup pad, stain remover... she had literally anything I could need and offered it before I even knew that I needed it! Everything stayed on schedule and she checked in with us often but discreetly to make sure we had everything we needed. And the next day as we were already buzzing with excitement, she surprised us with a behind the scenes gallery of photos and videos that allowed us to relive our perfect day. I can't say enough great things about this team. Absolutely no regrets about booking with KnightCo. Events!

We booked Teyanna in 2022 for our August 2024 wedding and did not regret it one bit. It was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Teyanna was beyond accommodating and informative throughout the entire process. Her precise, creative, and professional "client-first" mentality shone through. From countless Zoom calls to meeting up in person to select flowers, it was more than we could have asked for and were expecting. Her professionalism and creativity showed through when we had to improvise our outdoor ceremony to an indoor one thanks to a horrific tropical storm. She called us on the morning of our wedding to ensure we were doing okay and went over every detail with both my husband and me to make sure she and her team didn't miss anything. We cannot wait to work with Teyanna again in the future.

Dana, Tara, and the entire Thyme and Details team are nothing short of extraordinary.

They didn’t just meet our expectations; they exceeded them with thoughtful touches and moments of surprise and delight throughout the year-long process.

When a major hurdle arose with the delivery timing of some rentals, Dana went above and beyond, advocating fiercely to ensure everything worked out perfectly. Her determination and professionalism made all the difference in what could have been a stressful situation.

At Avenue Design Studio, we began as a floral business, but quickly realized we could offer so much more to our clients. Over our 10+ years of working with couples on those special lifetime moments, we found ourselves stepping in to assist our brides and event clients with planning, vendor coordination, and overall event management. This inspired us to shift our focus and create Avenue Design Studio, a full-service event planning and design company. Whether you’re looking for full-service planning or just need assistance with specific aspects, we provide multiple packages and a la carte options to fit your needs. You dream it, we create it.

From start to finish working with Avenue Design Studio was a fantastic experience! I had an initial call with Chad and based on that I knew they were professionals who could bring my vision to life through floral design and day of coordination. Then they continued to provide clear and open communication throughout the planning process and were able to make suggestions as needed to advance my vision. The week of the wedding I was in contact with Morgan who would be our official day of coordinator. Morgan ended up saving the day when our bartender cancelled on us last minute; she stepped in and bartended on top of coordinating. Then she was able to work with me to donate our flowers to a women’s shelter; a cause that hits close to home for me. I cannot recommend Avenue Design Studio enough!!

I cannot say enough incredible things about Erin. Above and beyond does not begin to cover it! Look no further for any of your wedding planning needs. We hired Erin for our month of coordinator almost 2 years in advance. From the beginning, she was very responsive, informative, kind, and helpful. I am pretty organized, and she consistently thought of questions I didn't! I was very impressed with her demeanor with myself and the rest of our vendors. Our venue required a pre-approved coordinator, and Erin took the steps to contact them to make sure she would work out, and we are so glad she did! She did everything she said she would and then some. She reached out to all of our vendors, worked with us on our timeline (many times!), attended our rehearsal, and never got frustrated even when we had a lot going on. Erin felt more like a friend than a coordinator, and we are so happy we got to spend our special day with her. Our day went so smoothly from start to finish, and we know this is due to Erin's impeccable attention to detail. If you are looking to have an incredible day with a crisp timeline and no stress - Erin is your gal!

It was an absolute pleasure working with Memories Made with Brittney Lashea at a wedding recently. I've worked in the wedding photography business for five years now, and I've seen a LOT of planners in that time. Brittney stands head and shoulders above nearly all of them! She's extremely professional, knowledgable, and experienced, and all of these things manifested in a classy, smooth-running and elegant wedding event. It went off without a hitch. As a professional, Brittney helped make my job easier in various ways, from communicating the timeline well in advance, to even setting up and posing some fun and tricky shots. There were several cases where I was afforded much more time to photograph than I'm typically allowed, which is a rare, unexpected but appreciated blessing. She gracefully coordinated and navigated the day, keeping things on-track in an extremely friendly, professional way. I look forward to working with Memories Made with Brittney Lashea again and again. Robert Burns Owner, Robert Burns II Photography & Videography

Working with Lauren Michele Events was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Their communication style was both professional and charismatic, putting us at ease throughout the entire wedding planning process. The quality of their work and the value they provided was truly top-notch. I cannot imagine my wedding day without Lauren and her team - they made everything perfect and exceeded our expectations in every way.

In 2013 I started as a Venue Manager and Sales Rep for The Brawley Estates. A few years later, and with many wedding experiences, I founded my own small business. 2018 my inventory started taking shape with hundreds of items for rent. 2020 adding skills for more adventures as Banquet Manager at The 658 Center. Since January 2023 I’m a full time at my small business and I don't have to work because I love what I get to do almost every weekend!

PLEASE REACH OUT DIRECTLY ON OUR WEBSITE. You’ve always done things differently - lived your life with intention. Now that you’re getting married, you want your wedding to be aligned with your values too! Compass Rose Coordination is a Virginia based team specializing in eco-friendly weddings. With over ten years of experience to their names, these planners create stunning weddings while reducing unnecessary waste in the process.

I cannot imagine our day without the CRC team! We utilized coordination services for the last 4 months and I am SO thankful we had this incredible team. Jenna was always quick to respond and anticipated our needs. Jenna had a form to organize all of our thoughts and worked out the details to mean fewer vendor meetings on our end. She worked seamlessly with our vendors who continuously complimented her to my husband and I. Our guests have told us it was the most organized wedding they have ever been to! This team is clearly full of incredibly organized, detail-oriented, and, most importantly, kindhearted people who made it clear they were there for us and excited for us! Any fires that may have happened, Jenna put out without me even knowing. I would recommend this company to every single newly engaged couple (especially those of you considering not hiring a coordinator -- trust me, you need them!).

I entered the Event planning market seven years ago through catering and setting up for events. I quickly learned that I loved being by the bride and groom throughout the entire event and watching their special day come to life. Getting to know the couple through the entire process and watching their dreams evolve into the wedding of their dreams stole my heart. It’s my pursuit to take all the stress off your plate and help you build the event of a lifetime. I truly want to become your best friend, go to person, planner, and even a punching bag when things just might not be going well that day, throughout the entire process

My daughter and I hired Chloe Deal to be our onsite day-of wedding planner and she was excellent before, during and after the big day! Pre-wedding, we had two zoom meetings to review what the plans were and what she would be doing to oversee it all. Chloe's communication assured us all the details would be completely taken care of on wedding day. The day of the wedding, we had a big surprise. An unexpected storm whipped up just as we were about to begin the outdoor ceremony. Chloe and her assistant quickly rallied to make last minute adjustments moving tables and displays under the reception tent, coordinating with the vendors on the change of plans and remained calm throughout it all. After a bit of insanity as our guests ran from the outdoor ceremony into the tent, Chloe and her assistant went into overdrive drying off chairs and getting them moved into the reception area which was a huge undertaking. The groomsmen were supposed to help but they were the only ones not under umbrellas and were absolutely soaked. Chloe easily helped guests find their seats and kept us all on schedule with the reception events of introductions, dances, happy hour, dinner, cake cutting, send off photos etc. Post wedding, we had to be all cleaned up by 9am the next day so the night of the wedding, Chloe and her assistant moved heavy tree log displays back to the woods, put everything that we needed to save into our cars or the locked space until we could pick it up the next day. Chloe's performance as our wedding planner was truly impressive as she thought of every detail and despite the unexpected weather, my daughter and son-in-law had a truly magical day complete with double rainbows! I would highly recommend her services to any bride and groom to-be!

Kierstin was our day of coordinator for our wedding on November 6th 2022. She was wonderful to work with. Kierstin followed up on all of my vendors two weeks before our wedding. She helped and assisted my whole wedding party and family. I felt I was able to have fun and did not have to worry about a thing. Best service.
