Buttercup Events Charleston

re both from out of town, and weren’t equipped to plan the Charleston party we were envisioning. If picking Charleston was the easiest choice, hiring Amy and Ashley at Buttercup Events to plan the wedding was the best. They did a particularly fantastic job making our wedding day elegant while incorporating our personalities into the small (and sometimes big) details. The day truly felt like ours. Their knowledge and relationships with the local vendors meant they assembled an absolute dream team for us. Amy and Ashley were very responsive and organized throughout the planning process. They helped us navigate the tricky planning timeline with ease and balance where to spend our budget to make our vision come to life. One thing that stuck out was their ability to turn an idea that was maybe too dissonant with the theme or outside our budget into something that was not only feasible, but often better than what we originally came up with. Their experience was evident at every turn. We would recommend Amy and Ashley to anyone who wants to make their Charleston event tasteful, organized, fun, and one of a kind.

t it to the next level. Amy and her team were fantastic to work with throughout the process, incredibly responsive and even practical. All of my friends and colleagues were surprised when I told them I was never stressed throughout the entirety of the process thanks to Amy and Ashley. My husband and I had the best day with no stress at all. Thank you again!!!

We truly couldn’t have done it without them. They made everything perfect.

I would say her greatest strengths are experience and confidence. Second to those skills is her responsiveness.

Amy also helped advise us on what vendors we should consider to stay within our budget. Hands down the best decision we made!

Beyond that, however, our wedding and rehearsal dinner (which Amy planned as well) were PERFECT. if anything went wrong, I have no clue. Our wedding was gorgeous and it was exactly what we wanted. We also had two totally different visions for our two events and Amy nailed them both. I am very impressed with her eye for design. I can’t recommend Amy and Buttercup Events enough. You’re in excellent hands with Amy. Jessica and Michael.

ent above and beyond in every aspect of our wedding. Her attention to detail and organizational skills are unmatched. It is clear she genuinely cares about her clients.

nformative and helped walk me through every step from start to finish. She is professional, prompt, organized, and honest...always 10 steps ahead of everyone else. If you have a question, she's likely already on top of it before you even ask. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful and special wedding, and we are so grateful to have had Amy as our wedding planner for such a perfect, unforgettable day.

We dealt with last minute guest cancellations and a HUGE storm the Thursday before to boot - but she remained calm, cool and collected. The day went off without a hitch and our friends and family are still talking about the wedding over a month later, saying it is the best one they have ever been to. Hire Buttercup Events you will not be disappointed! - Eliza & Peter

y, and we hired her immediately after our first meeting. As my husband and I don't live in the Charleston area, it was important to us that we had an experienced planner who was familiar with our venue and vision, and Amy was just that! She answered every single one of my texts and emails promptly, and made sure we were aware of all details and deadlines. We were completely relaxed going into our wedding day knowing that Amy and team had all the details covered (and not to mention, the design was everything I could've dreamed of!). HIGHLY recommend hiring Amy!

‘Charleston weddings’ to help my mom and I pull together the most amazing day, which is exactly what we got! The Buttercup team is so professional, talented, organized, and FUN to collaborate with! Amy was with us every step of the way and suggested the most amazing vendors to execute every detail of my vision. She was amazing at communication, keeping up with deadlines, making suggestions, and keeping us stress-free! Amy, Ashley, and Carly were so incredible on the day of by keeping everything running smoothly. So many guests commented on (and are STILL commenting on) the “the best cake we have ever had”, “ the most beautiful flowers “, “ best music and coolest DJ”, and “best overall wedding day flow”! These comments are a huge reflection on how Amy and her team work so hard to execute perfection! I am so appreciative I was able to work with Buttercup Events and HIGHLY recommend them to anyone looking to have a truly spectacular wedding or other event!

rying to book this wedding from hundreds of miles away - she made everything so easy. The design was sunning, the day was seamless, and my husband and I had just the best time, without a worry in the world. She is such a professional, and so well regarded by all her peers - with every new vendor we booked we heard "oh, I love working with Amy!" I could not recommend her more!

s to plan our wedding over two years from 6 states away while I was in the midst of my Masters program. Amy excels at providing a professional experience to her couple, works with vendors seamlessly, provides feedback throughout the process, and top-notch choices. Amy and her team were our saving grace on our wedding day from helping bustle my dress, getting passed hors d'oeuvres during our marriage license signing, putting on my second pair of shoes, and yes - even stitching my husband's tux pants!!! Amy goes above and beyond for her clients. I cannot imagine, and will refuse to imagine, our wedding planning process without Amy, she's an absolute legend.

ion to detail is amazing, and she is just all around a great person. From start to finish, everything was executed perfectly. Thank you Amy for all of your hard work in planning the most perfect wedding!

f Buttercup Events. From the moment we began working with Amy, we knew we had found the best of the best. Straightforward and honest, her level of professionalism equaled instant credibility on all recommendations she made, and we entrusted her with nearly all of our destination wedding details from that point forward. We haven’t regretted one thing. Her secret weapon? Amy can hold a timeline like nobody’s business. At one point during the reception, she ushered us through a room of 100 eager guests so that we could sit down and eat. There were so many things she handled and took care of that we will never know. When you work with Amy, she doesn’t want you to have to think about that. It was incredible to be able to leave the details in her hands and enjoy the most special day of our life together. Thank you so much, Amy, we enjoyed every moment!

with. She guided us when we needed help with vendor selections, reassured us when we were feeling anxious, and most importantly, did everything she could to ensure we actually enjoyed the day. Without a doubt the best thing we could have done for our wedding was hire Buttercup Events. I'd give them 10 stars if I could.

In fact, our friends and family were actually concerned with how calm we were! Amy worked with us for 2.5 years to plan our perfect day. She listened to our vision, respected our ideas and budget, and provided us with incredible vendor recommendations. From the moment we first spoke on the phone with Amy, we knew she would listen to us. We also appreciated how easy she was to communicate with – whether it was a call, email, or text she would respond within minutes. We were so grateful that she was always there to answer our questions. In the weeks leading up to the wedding, she was incredibly organized. We had a detailed timeline, vendor list, and entire ceremony and reception floorplan. Our wedding was without a doubt the best and happiest day of our lives and we have Amy to thank for that. We were so worried that the wedding planning process would be stressful and dreadful like so many couples have described. If you want to have an incredible planning process that allows you to just focus on loving your person and planning an epic celebration, without a doubt hire Amy and the Buttercup Events team!

ns. She brought together our unique vision of bold colors and recommended the perfect vendor team to execute it. From her detailed timelines and checklists we felt supported the entire time in the planning process. We wish we could do it all over again to work with her!

ident that she was a person who gets things done. Most of our vendors had worked with Amy before and all had wonderful things to say about her and her teams professionalism. Amy and her team at Buttercup Events were the absolute best and I felt at ease knowing that they were on top of everything. The day was perfect and we loved every minute of it.

of the vendors she recommended. I was almost brought to tears by how beautiful and magical the venue turned out to be - thanks to Amy! As the mother of the bride, I was able to not worry about anything and truly be present at my daughter's wedding with friends & family. All of our friends thought this was the most fun wedding they have ever attended!

y throughout the wedding planning process. Amy was great with communication and attention to detail throughout the planning process and always provided the reassurance any nervous bride is looking for. Knowing we could trust Amy and her team helped make our wedding day absolute perfection. She truly is amazing at what she does, and I cannot recommend Amy and her team enough!

to fully enjoy the celebration. I know this was only possible because of Amy. As a type A planner, knowing everything was taken care of leading up to and at the wedding allowed me to relax and enjoy my day. Highly recommend Amy if you want someone to help think through all the logistics and make sure every i is dotted and every t is crossed so you can fully enjoy your day!

great design eye and perfectly captured our vision. All of her vendor recommendations were great and a pleasure to work with. She is efficient and straightforward. She offered great advice and insight while still making sure the event was very much tailored to us. The day of the wedding was stress free as Amy seamlessly handled set up, vendor communication and all other wedding day activities. She made the entire experience enjoyable and as stress free as possible! It was very nice knowing we were in great hands and that she was doing a lot was going on behind the scenes to create a perfect day. Highly recommend!

ughter!! We couldn’t be happier with our entire experience. Besides being a pleasure to work with, Amy is an absolute professional who is 100% committed. She is very well connected and respected within the wedding industry, and it shows with the great repore she has with all the vendors. As a mother, who only wants her daughter’s wedding day to be all that she’s dreamed of, I am so appreciative of Amy’s TALENTS in creating a perfectly Magical day!!

ed me that the wedding of our dreams was possible with our budget. Throughout the planning process, Amy was patient with my indecisiveness and helped connect us to amazing vendors. Not only is she organized and professional, but she genuinely cared about helping make our vision come to life. With COVID and having a wedding far from home there were a lot of curve balls sent our way, including last minute guest list changes, but Amy was unfazed and made it all work. When the wedding day came I was in awe when I saw what her and her team put together. Not only was every detail perfect, but the wedding day flowed seamlessly. Our wedding day was without a doubt the best day of our lives and we owe it all to Amy and her team. I cannot thank them enough for bringing all of my husband and I's dreams come to life. If you're a future bride and actually want to ENJOY the wedding planning process Amy is your person! She is by far the best of the best! I cannot recommend her enough!!

onths with a different planner, we hit a breaking point. We didn’t know where to turn and the anxiety sky rocketed. We had an intro call with Amy and explained the situation. We knew within minutes that we wanted to put our faith into her saving our wedding and our mental state. Like previous reviews have stated, Amy is transparent, she’s professional, she’s talented and most importantly she’s extremely personable. There is no sugar coating how terrible wedding planning can be but if you have the honor of hiring Amy, you will soon realize that she can make the most anxious person feel relaxed. On wedding day, she did not stop. She was helpful, punctual and such a delight. She truly felt like the bad ass mother figure everyone needs the most amazing (and stressful) day of their lives. No event goes exactly as planned but when she sees something isn’t in line with the picture you’ve painted, she will act FAST to get things straightened out, all while bringing laughter to the crowd. For days and even weeks after our wedding, we had friends and family praising “that planner”. Yes, Amy is THAT planner. It perfectly sums up what you get with Amy - she is THAT planner that anyone and everyone needs to make their wedding become the day of their dreams. Thank you so much Amy, we owe you the world!

ed right in and made the process for those last few months so smooth. She pulled major connections to get me a florist and design elements that were still exactly what I wanted. She answered emails literally within the hour when my last planner would go weeks. She made me feel so relaxed and like I could give up control of the details and boy did she nail those details. My jaw dropped when I walked into the reception area. Everything was stunning!!! My only wish is that I found her sooner. We love you Amy! Kelsey & Mike

lity. As someone who dreaded the planning process, Amy was a godsend. Her quick responses, ability to cull a customized set of vendor recommendations and provide knowledgeable guidance was so invaluable. She also was able to capture exactly what we wanted the day to look and feel like and executed flawlessly. When I walked into our venue, my draw dropped. It was exactly how I had hoped the room would look. She perfectly timed the whole day as well. Amy took to heart what we wanted from the day, then took charge as the professional to help us get to that perfect end result, which is something I could never have done by myself. I can not recommend Amy enough. She will make your day absolutely perfect.

e our wedding. Desperate, we found Amy who immediately got to work to help. She is a consummate professional, experienced, and will help create the wedding of your dreams. She answered our communication in a timely manner, sometimes on the same day or night, which was shocking because our first planner would takes days or weeks to respond. She would even reach out to us right away if there was a problem that needed fixing. She was completely transparent and up front with expectations with our rentals and budget. I cannot say enough that we felt respected with her and felt that she truly fought to make our wedding day special. I'm a resident physician and my wife is a teacher, and so our schedules were very hectic, especially dealing with the disaster of switching planners. But Amy made us feel comfortable, valued, and well-taken care of. She will answer any question you have, get things done on time, prepare for the worst, and overall put you at ease for your big day. On the day of, Amy was a rock star. First off, she really made our dream wedding come to life with her vision perfectly meshing with our own. Her arrangement and ideas were perfect. Our big day was not without emergency fires, which she put out. I had a personal family matter that almost ruined our day, but Amy helped me right away, was calm, and put me at ease with her professionalism. Our ceremony also got delayed due to unforeseen circumstances, yet Amy was able to think on the fly and deliver a magical evening without any issues! I cannot say enough how amazing Amy is. Wedding planning should be a happy, stress-free time, and Amy will make that happen.

eading up to the wedding and beyond. She acted as part therapist and helped me navigate all of the tricky things leading up to the big day. Her honesty is extremely helpful, especially for someone who is indecisive. She is able to listen to what your vision is, and bring it to life. The day of was a testament to all of the hard work and planning, it went off without a hitch and we didn't have to lift a finger. I couldn't believe how beautiful everything was, no detail went unnoticed. All of our guests had wonderful things to say too. Amy's willingness to let me send some items for the wedding to her own home was a huge help since we had destination wedding. If you're looking for a planner that you'll love working with, who is extremely responsive, kind, organized, and dedicated, look no further than Amy. She'll make your wedding dreams even better than you could ever imagine!

connected with Amy instantly because of her New York roots and loved that she worked as fast-paced as we do. She would immediately respond to any email we sent her, which made us feel so confident in everything she was doing for us. Every vendor we booked spoke about how much they enjoy working with Amy and it showed on the wedding day. Everyone worked so well together and our wedding was better than what we dreamed of. We did not really know what we wanted in terms of floral design (aside from a color scheme and some inspiration photos) and trusted Amy completely to design the entire event space for us. She worked closely with our florist to design what many of our guests said was the most beautiful wedding they had ever attended. We really appreciated how she took every floral arrangement from the ceremony space and added it somewhere else later on in the event to make sure that nothing went to waste. Our venue was very challenging to work with in terms of communication and Amy went above and beyond to make sure we got everything we needed from them. We really cannot recommend Amy enough!!

relieved so much stress on our wedding day. We had unpredictable weather on our wedding day and Amy was so helpful at making sure everything ran smoothly and the day was perfect. I couldn't have asked for a better planner.

of the most sought after wedding markets in the country and does so exceptionally - we would choose her to plan our wedding again and again. My fiance and I engaged Amy and her team to plan our rehearsal dinner, welcome party, and wedding. As someone who has long dread the idea of planning a wedding, I can truly say that Amy made the process smooth, stress-free, and even fun! In fact, we already miss working with her and will forever look back fondly on our time leading up to our big day - something that I am willing to bet not many people can say. And that is completely attributable to Amy. In addition to being organized, creative, and detail-oriented, Amy always was able to telegraph our concerns and respond to them immediately - sometimes without us even communicating them to her. On top of that, I have never worked with someone who has responded so quickly to each and every email or message I have sent her way. I'm actually not quite sure how she does it! We were also struck with how respected she is among other wedding vendors in Charleston, which speaks more to her reputation as a planner than any review I could leave. Everyone we came into contact with sung her praises, which further reinforced to us that we were in the best of hands. Amy designed and fully executed our dream wedding and made the entire day one that we and our parents could enjoy completely without any stress. We continue to get compliments from guests, and most importantly, know that we will look back on our wedding day with warm hearts for the rest of our lives. Amy is truly the best of the best, and I would highly recommend her full planning package if you find yourself in the market for a wedding planner in Charleston. You will not regret it.

my wedding venue set the stage for a magical and romantic atmosphere. The food and service were the best I ever received at any event. Thank you Amy for truly an enchanting experience.

recommend her more!!

damn did she deliver. Through all of the stress of wedding planning, it was so comforting to know we could lean on Amy for design, vendor communication, logistics, ideas, you name it. She is understanding, honest, communicative, helpful, creative, hilarious and keeps everyone and everything in line -- everything you need in a wedding planner! And she ALWAYS has your back. I felt comfortable asking her anything & everything and she always had a thought, suggestion, fix, whatever it was we needed. She planned both mine & my sister's weddings within a year and a half of each other -- can you tell we love and TRUST her?! We miss you already!

the partial service package, but it felt like Amy consistently went above & beyond to provide the best service possible. From the beginning, Amy responded to all of my emails/calls very quickly & with genuinely helpful advice or answers. She worked closely with my mother & I to make sure all of our ideas for my husband & I's wedding day came to fruition. She was always honest with her opinions and feedback, which allowed me to maintain realistic expectations throughout the entire planning process. I was going through nursing school while trying to plan a wedding, so having Amy to help us figure out all of the details & logistics along the way felt like such a weight off of my shoulders! Anytime I felt stressed about wedding plans, I would reach out to Amy about them and she immediately put me at ease & offered solutions. Amy's advice is the reason we hired several other vendors from our wedding day that we were also incredibly impressed with. On our wedding day, Amy was truly on top of EVERYTHING. Her assistants were fantastic as well. I was able to truly enjoy our wedding day with zero worries - from how the event flowed to where my personal belongings were at the end of the night, Amy was on it. I'm so thankful that she was available for us to hire for our wedding day - her work truly made a difference & helped us have the wedding of our dreams! Thank you Amy!!

would be near impossible to do in that timeframe in Charleston and Amy made the “impossible” possible. We were thrilled with every single detail of our wedding - from the planning process to the rehearsal to every piece of wedding day (from linens to food and beyond). Amy was knowledgeable, proactive, attentive, kind, and so encouraging every step of the way. She flawlessly envisioned and executed the most perfect wedding for me and my husband. I would book with her again and again and again (if only weddings were something you did multiple times…). My sincerest gratitude to you Amy!!

helped us be at ease in shifting things around so that everyone was comfortable the day of the wedding. Not to mention the decorating she did looked amazing, we love how everything turned out - cannot recommend Amy enough!

was always available to discuss any detail or concern through email or by phone. I didn’t have a specific vision for how the space and the day would look, but knew what I didn’t want and some minor details. Amy helped piece everything together and made the space look so elegant and beautiful. It was exactly what I wanted without knowing it initially. She kept all the planning details and vendor information very organized and made sure the night flowed so smoothly. She listened to my wishes about timeline and allowed us to have an amazing party with lots of dancing for most of the night. In terms of budget, she was mindful in helping us find solutions for things that were not as worth it to splurge and she helped connect us with other vendors we needed along the way. She’s extremely professional, very well respected by her peers and we just trusted her. We were so happy with the outcome and hope you get the chance to work with her too!

rofessionals for my next event.
