I’ve known Shari for many years and I always knew I wanted her to be my wedding planner. She is on top of everything. She helped create an outline of what I needed to do to stay on...
top of everything and we would have calls to catch up to see what has been completed. If I ever needed anything or had any questions she replied back within a reasonable amount of time. She helped me plan the best wedding I could ever ask for and I definitely recommend using coastal charm wedding as your planner if you need one in the area!
If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! Our wedding on March 27, 2026, was everything we dreamed of and more, and we have our wedding planner to thank for making it all happen....
From the very beginning, she was professional, organized, responsive, and genuinely invested in making our vision come to life. Planning a wedding can be overwhelming, but she made the entire process feel seamless and stress-free. Her attention to detail, creativity, and ability to coordinate every moving piece allowed us to truly enjoy our special day.
Even months later, our family and friends are still talking about how beautiful, organized, and memorable our wedding was. Everything flowed perfectly, and every detail was executed flawlessly. On the wedding day, she handled everything behind the scenes so my husband and I could focus on celebrating with our loved ones.
We are beyond grateful for her hard work, dedication, and expertise. She exceeded every expectation we had and helped create memories that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. I would recommend her to any couple looking for someone who truly cares about making their wedding day perfect.
Shari, thank you for helping make our dream wedding a reality!
Shari was wonderful! She was understanding and flexible with my family's wishes! She was calm throughout the process and she helped make our special day not so stressful.
Shari was amazing! She was very responsive from the time we reached out to her right to the wedding day.
She is attentive, has creative and thoughtful ideas she was willing to sha...
re. She always answered any questions we had and we really felt included in all the decisions that were made for the ceremony. We both felt represented as individuals and as a couple. She takes the time to get to know you and adds personalized touches. We highly recommend Shari!
Shari made our wedding dreams come true! I live in Texas but we decided to have our wedding in South Carolina. With it being a destination wedding (and me going through grad school...
at the time) I needed a lot of help. Shari was the best money we spent on this wedding, seriously. I couldn’t have done it without her! She kept me on task, helped me find amazing vendors, created a perfect day-of timeline, and made the whole process so smooth I didn’t have to worry about a thing on my day. I HIGHLY recommend her and her team! Thank you, Shari!
My experience with Shari was phenomenal and beyond what I expected. She not only made the process seamless but she was and will always be part of our family. Words will never be ...
enough to describe not only her impeccable work but also the care she provided me and my family on our special day. She is the best and we love her to pieces! Thank you Shari for making our wedding so special and our lives even better! We love you!

We worked with Shari as our day-of wedding coordinator, and she was absolutely wonderful! Even though her official role was limited to the wedding day, Shari went above and beyond ...
in the months leading up to our wedding. I had multiple phone calls with her prior to the big day, and she was always organized, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable.
She took the time to understand our vision, walked us through the timeline, and helped us think through details we hadn’t even considered. On the wedding day itself, Shari kept everything running smoothly behind the scenes. We were able to just relax and enjoy every moment without stress.
Her kindness, professionalism, and genuine care made our wedding so much more than just a beautiful day. She helped make it feel effortless, joyful, and deeply meaningful.
We are so grateful for Shari’s support and would highly recommend her to any couple looking for a dependable and thoughtful wedding coordinator!
Hiring Shari was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! I originally wasn’t planning to hire a planner since I’ve planned events before, but I am so glad we did. She wa...
s absolutely amazing to work with—professional, organized, and incredibly knowledgeable.
She paid attention to every detail, big and small, which gave me so much peace of mind throughout the planning process and on the day of.
Our day ran smoothly thanks to her, and we were able to fully be present and enjoy it knowing everything was in great hands. If you’re even considering hiring a planner, do yourself a favor and reach out to Shari. She was the best!
Shari was absolutely amazing! She had so many recommendations on vendors, seeing we were not from the area. All of the vendors we used, had nothing but wonderful things to say abou...
t Shari and her team. She truly became part of the family and she made sure everything went just as planned. Every detail was perfect because of her and her team!
Unfortunately, I cannot recommend Marcie as a day-of wedding coordinator. I hired her for my sister’s wedding and found her communication and attention to detail to be lacking. The...
timeline she returned to me was nearly identical to what I had already created, with a few disorganized additions—and my sister’s name was misspelled. When I raised concerns, I was met with defensiveness rather than professionalism. For $600, I expected a higher standard of care, especially for something as important as a wedding. Ultimately, I chose to part ways early in the planning process and lost part of my deposit, but I felt it was better to find someone I could truly trust.
I do not know what we would have done without Shari and her team! From the very start Shari was knowledgeable, professional and so on top of it! She kept us on track throughout the...
planning process, easing the stress! She communicated with all of my vendors prior to my wedding day and kept everything running smooth the day of! Shari and her team were amazing the day of my wedding. They handled every big and small detail with ease, I would absolutely recommend!

We could not have done this wedding without Shari! I realized early on I couldn’t throw a wedding on my own. She kept me on track throughout the planning process and was there thro...
ughout the rehearsal and wedding day. She helped me have a stress free day by keeping me, family, and the bridal party on schedule, and she took a lot of pressure off my mom too. She handled all communication with the venue as well. We couldn’t be happier with our day and with Shari.
Shari was great! She helped us make our vision come true. She was a quick communicator, and went above and beyond to help us get everything prepped and ready for our big day. We tr...

Can't say enough about Shari and her team. My wedding was absolutely beautiful and wedding day totally stress free! Everyone she suggested to help in the wedding day was wonderful ...
and I have heard from many of my guest it was the best wedding they have ever been to! From the beach house she picked for reception, to the food and the DJ. I couldn't of asked for more! I definitely recommend Coastal Charm Wedding and having a wedding planner help out.
Hiring Shari was one of the easiest decisions I ever made. After our first phone call, she really got to know us as people and not just as customers. During our time planning, we h...
ad multiple phone calls, we emailed back and forth, and texted a lot. She was always available to help when we had questions about absolutely anything. Leading up to the wedding, I felt a sense of ease knowing she was going to be there the day of the wedding so I could focus on marrying the love of my life and not worrying about the tiny little details. She absolutely made our vision come alive in our venue. Not only is she an amazing planner, but she’s an even better person. My wedding day was her birthday and her grandson had just been born, but she was 100% present with us. Shari was my best wedding planning decision, and she will be yours too!
PERFECTION! That one word is the best description of our day thanks to Mrs. Shari! She made sure everything was smooth sailing from planning to the day of! She supplied us with the...

I could not have asked for a better wedding planner than Shari with Coastal Charm. She responded quickly, was extremely organized, dealt with changes and additions (even when last ...
minute) with ease! My wedding turned out to be even better than I dreamed of all because of her. From planning, rehearsal, day of and even after she has been nothing short of incredible. If you want your wedding day to be nothing short of perfect, she is your woman!
Shari was wonderful! We had the pleasure of working with her monthly to plan our wedding. I had a vision of a garden party with Tuscan vibes and she didn't miss a beat! We were in ...
complete awe with how everything came together and how well our vendor team worked together. Shari had great recommendations for every vendor and did an amazing job making sure everything ran smoothly the day of our wedding. Our number one priority was to actually enjoy every detail of our wedding and because of Shari we really did get to enjoy our day together and with all our guests. Without Shari's help we would have no idea where to even begin. Her team really made our dream wedding come true!

things to a certain point, however, the day would have not run smoothly (or honestly at all) without Maddie and Shari. They were super organized in our planning meetings, which made me feel confident and prepared going into wedding week. Shari also had established relationships with many of the local vendors and that was really helpful day of. I’m so grateful to this team, they made the day a breeze, and handled everything like absolute pros. If you’re thinking of hiring a planner, or are in need of day of coordination look no further- I cannot recommend Coastal Charm enough!!

We came across Shari first on social media, tagged in posts at our venue and then found out that she was one of the top planners that works with Events at Brick Landing. It was one...
of the best wedding decisions to hire her. She knows the event space like the back of her hand and has worked with almost all of our vendors previously. She also has an extensive list of great contacts if you're planning a destination wedding like we were. We thoroughly enjoyed working with her through the planning process because she tailored her notes and guide to what was important for us and kept us on track through every step. She is so calm and kind in every situation and made sure our event and ceremony space was perfect and beautiful, and our wedding was executed without a single worry. I cannot thank her enough for helping us have one of the absolute best days of our lives and already feeling sad that I don't have a monthly call on the books with her. She is a gem!!!
