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.

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!!

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot express how grateful I am to have found Memories Made with Brittney LaShea! Brittney was instrumental in making the wedding of my dreams come true! Listen—I am a project manager by profession—super organized, type A control freak, very particular—so for me to hand over the most important day of my life to someone else seemed unimaginable. But from my first meeting with Brittney, I felt nothing but utter confidence in her abilities and she definitely proved me right! I hired Brittney for day-of coordination about 2-3 months out from my wedding which took place March 2025. Brittney is an EXPERT event planner who was able to give me so much guidance even though I was so far into wedding planning. She is also EXTREMELY thorough—“day-of” coordination doesn’t just mean you show up on the day of the wedding and Brittney understands that. She put in the necessary prep work, reviewing vendor contracts, creating a detailed day of timeline, coordinating with vendors, and leading the rehearsal. Working with Brittney in the weeks leading up to the wedding and in particular at the rehearsal, I was able to observe the intentionality with which she builds relationships with people. On the wedding day, Brittney was a literal SUPERHERO. She comes equipped with walkie talkies and the most thorough emergency kit I’ve ever seen! There were things that went wrong throughout the day (that’s inevitable) but Brittney shielded me from so much of that by making executive decisions and coming up with solutions on the fly, which allowed me to just enjoy my day. Cold sparks tripped the power in the reception hall—Brittney handled it. Wind kept blowing over the arch as they were trying to decorate—Brittney handled it. By the end of the night, I didn’t want to deal with the train on my reception dress—Brittney handled it (the woman literally stitched a bustle for me lol). I could go on and on forever about how amazing this woman is. My family, the vendors, and even random guests commented on what an incredible job she did. So I’m just going to say anyone would be LUCKY to have Brittney on their team.

Knowing that I didn’t have to stress about ANYTHING was the greatest gift I got out of working with Rare Bird Collective. Every detail of the design felt intentional, thoughtful, and truly, as if it was made just for us. Day of, she made sure we had everything we needed before we even thought of it and made sure we felt taken care of - in a way we weren’t even expecting! Our wedding was everything we wanted and more, and we couldn’t be more grateful to have Andrea plan such a great day for us, our families and guests! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts - we can never recommend you enough!

Tova Yvents Planning Company

  • Offers 3 services
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves St. James, NC

Born and raised in North Carolina, I learned from an early age the power of gatherings and gratitude. My family taught me to cherish the moments that bring us together, and it’s this spirit that inspires my work today. To honor my family’s legacy, I named my business Tova Yvents, a nod to my family’s matriarch, “Yvette”—a name passed down to me to carry forward their love for connection and celebration. I absolutely love celebrating others and the journey that goes into creating meaningful experiences. From the planning and anticipation to the emotions and memories made, it’s a true joy to be part of your most memorable moments.

Working with Tova from Tova Yvents is always such a joy! As a wedding photographer, I've had the opportunity to collaborate with her, and I've always had a seamless, positive experience. She’s incredibly organized, calm under pressure, and genuinely cares about her couples and the vendor team alike. Her communication is effortless, and she has such a thoughtful, professional presence on the wedding day. Everything always runs smoothly when Tova’s involved. I always look forward to working alongside her and would recommend her in a heartbeat to any couple looking for an experienced, kind, and detail-oriented planner!
