Blue Satin Bee

Kim and Jumila were awesome! I had never been to Southport/Oak Island and my son was getting married there, needed to find a place to have a rehearsal dinner and welcome party. I met with Kim and Jumila numerous times via zoom and they were able to help me plan the most amazing event. They answered every question I had from how much alcohol to buy, to where people should stay, about transportation and babysitting. The night of the event they were there and made sure it all ran smoothly! They went way above and everyone raved about what a wonderful event it was!! Thank you Kim and Jumila for everything!

The ladies were beyond AMAZING! I was in a crunch to find someone to help me prepare for my son’s rehearsal dinner because I am far from creative, after many declines, I got an email saying they were available. I met with these wonderful ladies and not only did they come my event coordinators for 1 night, but friends. They made the night come together and it was absolutely beautiful. After working with such creative, most friendly, and beautiful women, I will not go without asking them again for their help!

So, my wife and I were not planning on hiring a day of planner…that would have been the biggest mistake ever!!! I have my friend who got a wedding planner and asked if we planned on getting on, and I didn’t see the need to. We had all our vendors picked out and booked. Then I was talking to our vendor for rentals, and she was like, “You may think you don’t need a planner but let me tell you, come the end of your wedding night and it will be you stuck without anyone to help clean as everyone who says they will help will be drunk and leave” and she gave me the name of Kim at Blue Satin Bee. We reached out to Kim and met up for coffee and we knew right away that we need to bite the bullet and hire her. She asked many questions of things we never even thought of, and we knew it would make the day wayyyy less stressful. Though we had the full wedding planned and I had all my spreadsheets/budget in order, we decided to hire her for just the ‘day of’ planning. We met with Kim and her team multiple times for drinks and coffee and to discuss our wedding. She and her team are so personable and fun that many times we lost track of time. An hour meeting would turn into just great discussions, and we all got to know each other very well. Come the wedding day, though it was still stressful, we did not have the stress of setting up, the stress of having all our vendors on the same page, the stress of making a schedule of the day, everything… Kim and her team at Blue Satin Bee handled it with such professionalism. If there was any hiccups on the day, we wouldn’t know because her whole team was all over and just making sure the day was perfect, which it was. They were just so fun to work with and Danielle’s dance skills with a mop were on point as well. If you are having a wedding, and plan on doing it yourself…do yourself the biggest favor and reach out to Kim and Blue Satin Bee, they will take off so much stress, especially for you brides. Even if it’s just for the day of, there are so many little things we didn’t think of/didn’t know about until they asked us and discussed with us. You don't want to look back and wish after the wedding that you had hired a wedding planner, by then, it'll be too late. They get 5 stars and are a must hire for your wedding down here on the coast. They will build not just a client relationship but a friendship as well.

Kim and Jumila were essential to the success of my daughter's wedding on Bald Head Island. They were so knowledgeable about the logistical challenges of a BHI wedding. Their careful planning, advice and design skills all worked together to create a beautiful event for my daughter and her husband. The best part of their service? On the day of the wedding all of us - friends, family, bride and groom - were able to focus on enjoying each other. We never had to worry about next steps because Kim and Jumila were on hand taking care of everything!

Kim is sweet, funny, and relatable. Wedding planning with her was stress free and easy. My Husband and I both have crazy work schedules but Kim was always more than happy to work around it. Just know that by choosing Blue Satin Bee for your wedding planning, you are choosing a company who truly has your best interest at heart. Our wedding day was truly the best day ever.
