Love the ladies of Social Butterfly Events! From the very beginning they were giving me wonderful ideas and helping me with any questions I had. They were always easy to get in touch with and responded promptly. The day of my wedding was amazing. Everything ran so smooth and on time. I even had a guest show up late who said he thought he would be on time because weddings never start on time...mine did! If there were any issues the day of, I didn't know about them. Charyl and Heather handled everything with grace and the utmost professional attitudes. They also made me feel so special, like I was the most beautiful bride they had ever seen :) I would absolutely recommend them and I already have. Thank you for everything ladies!P.S. This review is coming from another wedding professional.

Charyl and Heather are professional and super fun and truly helped my husband and I plan the best day of our lives! They took the time to understand our vision and get to know us as a couple. They helped us pick vendors that fit our style and our budget. They scheduled tons of tastings and meetings and went with us to all of them. Even though they had tons of weddings going at once, they made us feel so special and unique through the whole process. We are 100% confident that our day would not have been as perfect and put together as it was if they had not helped us orchestrate everything!

Social Butterfly made my wedding happen in 3 months and every single person I know has come up to me and told me that every aspect of the wedding was the prettiest/most perfect/best wedding they have ever been too, "honestly!" And they go on and on....thanks to Charyl & Heather and their amazing vendors!

Where do I begin to review Charyl and Heather and all that is Social Butterfly Events? Do I start with how these two amazing women custom made haybale covers (for the haybales that I wanted...which they found, procured, and delivered)? Or maybe it'd better to start by commenting on their extensive network of trusted vendors, all of whom took the time to tell me "how awesome" my planners were, and all of whom were willing to bend over backwards to help the Social Butterfly girls and their bride? Perhaps the best route is to begin with how comfortable and cared for Charyl and Heather made my husband and I (and our whole families) feel, from the first phone conversation with Charyl until heather ushered me to the top of the aisle on our wedding day? Any way I go about it, Social Butterfly rocks. They beyond rock. They took our dreams of what we wanted for our wedding-however out-there and vague they were- and made them into an incredible celebration of joy and gratitude that at once honored who we are as wacky individuals, and also radiated with the importance and tradition that should surround any wedding. Working with Charyl and Heather you get the sense that these girls care about your MARRIAGE and not just your WEDDING. Will they get all excited with you when you find the perfect flowers for your bouquet? Heck yes! Are they going to handle business and keep things running PERFECTLY on your big day? Absolutely. Drunk toasters and all. Marc and I consider these ladies great friends, and we'd get married all over again, with these two, in a heartbeat.~Mack & Marc

Partnering with Social Butterfly Events was a first-rate experience. Both Charyl and Heather were fully invested in creating a memorable wedding experience beyond our wildest dreams. They are quintessential professionals with a unique blend of creativity and business savvy. They are extremely well-connected in the Wilmington, NC area and know how and where to find anything a couple might need to make their wedding experience a unique and original expression of their union. We highly recommend Social Butterfly Events without any reservations!

SBE provided the help that I needed to make my day everything that I wanted. Their design talent made my venue beautiful. The itinerary, vendor management and clean up service made the day very easy for me. I would recommend this company to any bride.

I would not have changed anything about my wedding. It had the atmosphere and vibe that I had invisioned for my beach wedding, all thanks to Social Butterfly Events. The only advice I can give to future brides is hire a wedding planner!!!! The last thing your wedding should do is cause you stress. The only real stress I ever felt was over the possiabilty of a looming hurricane! I would also tell future brides the I do's are the only thing that is important everything else is just details!

I LOVE THE SOCIAL BUTTERFLIES!! Infact, I would not have survived this wedding with out them. They went ABOVE and BEYOND all of my expectations every step of the way. They were more than just wedding planners.. Charyl and Heather became our friends and when I looked over during my ceremony they were crying too! They really care about their clients and never over step any boundries. They always make sure your wedding is what YOU want. I was so so so pleased with SBE. I love you guys and wish you all the best! I highly highly highly recommend Social Butterfly Events!Jess Acree :)

Charyl and Heather were very easy to work with and very responsive to my questions and concerns. They suggested excellent vendors to work with and did the detail work for me. Their "day of" organization of the rehearsal dinner and the wedding was excellent. They took care of details I didn't even know about and made everything look seamless. They are great professionals and I give them my highest recommendation.

Charyl & Heather came highly recommended. Originally, I was not planning on hiring wedding planners, but my mom & I lived a good 4 hours from our wedding location. It was certainly one of the best decisions I made to help get in gear for planning.These Ladies really helped to calm my nerves & ensure that my wedding would be everything I envisioned. There were many memorable moments & conversations before the Big Day & they handled it all with ease. I couldn't have asked for a better team! Thank you guys from the bottom of my heart!

Social Butterfly Events came highly recommended by a trusted vendor. I hired Charyl and Heather with Social Butterfly Events to help coordinate our big day and I'm so glad I did. I was nervous about all of the details I had been planning for a year to come together and they went above and beyond to ensure that they did. They eased any nervousness I had and we had a great time working together. They were both very professional, personable, and I would without a doubt, hire them again for another event. Heather did an amazing job designing our programs and putting the finishing touches on our reception venue, making it so beautiful. Charyl was a joy to work with, very organized and responsive. If you work with them, you will be in great hands!

Social Butterfly Events is amazing! They helped me with all my "day of" wedding plans, and I cannot express how much I needed them, and am so glad to have had them. I am a Catering Manager, and thought I could do it all myself. It was like a burden lifted off my shoulders when Charyl and Heather helped me on my wedding day. I didn't have to think about anything on my wedding day other then having a great time, because they did it all for me! If I can give any piece of advice to other brides it would be hire a wedding planner, and hire Social Butterfly Events!

My wedding was on May 7, 2010.The ladies of Social Butterfly were great to work with through the planning process all the way to the big day. They were in regular contact with me, and kept me on track with bride tasks so I wouldnt have so much to do in the last few weeks.As far as value, I believe that this service paid for itself. SB offers the experience to steer you away from less-dependable or overpriced vendors, preventing possible catastophies or budget issues. They also saved me a great deal of time on the wedding day confirming vendors and decorating so I was able to have leisurely time with my bridesmaids for fun, memorable moments, rather than nervous preparation.On the actual wedding day, the venue was decorated beautifully, all my requests were taken care of, and they were there to remind me of things I wanted to do at the reception while maintaing a low profile.Im not sure what happened after the wedding as my family, friends and I were not a part of the clean-up process. I can tell you that I met Charyl a few days later and she had all of my "left behind" belongings! What a saint.What sets SB apart from the other planners in Southeastern NC is that they are not rigid or stuffy old-schoolers with a mission to have a cookie-cutter wedding. They work with you to navigate through wedding ettiquette, while ensuring you have the wedding of your dreams either traditional or casual. They truly do understand the modern bride.
