Our wedding was the most perfect day I could have ever dreamed of — and there’s no doubt it was thanks to the incredible Coastyle Wedding team. Samantha and Taylor were an absolute...
dream to work with! They’re true experts at bringing your vision to life, blending professionalism, creativity, impeccable taste, and genuine care in everything they do.
From day one, they made the entire planning process so smooth — even with our busy schedules and only about nine months to plan. They guided us every step of the way and helped us craft a wedding that felt so authentically us, which our family and friends noticed and loved. I wanted so badly to be able to relax and truly enjoy every moment of our wedding day, and the Coastyle team gifted me exactly that.
Beyond their talent and organization, Samantha and Taylor are simply wonderful humans — kind, fun, and the kind of people you truly enjoy having around. I’ve told everyone that we could not have pulled off our happiest and most perfect day without them.
I can’t recommend Coastyle Weddings highly enough — 11/10 and the best wedding decision I made! They are absolutely worth the investment. 🤍
Samantha and Taylor are the absolute best! Don’t look any further. If they’re available to be your wedding planners you should book them! They made the entire process and weekend f...

5 stars, but wish I could do more!
Samantha and Taylor are truly amazing and so talented. Their organization, communication and planning was exceptional. They truly listened to us...
in our conversations and picked out little details we didn’t even realize we wanted. We trusted them with our full day at The Chesapeake, which not only was a ceremony and a reception, but a pool party and pizza bar to follow. It was romantic, beachy, casual but traditional all at the same time. From day one we trusted their process and were so happy we did. Even small last minute changes were taken care of easily and swiftly. Our day was perfect and we are so lucky to have had them by our side the whole way. Might I add, they are the sweetest people and everyone we met in OBX knew of them, were friends with them, or worked with them and everyone had incredible things to say about them. They’ve truly changed the game with personalizing not only your event, but the relationship you have with your planners.
We worked with Taylor and Samantha for over a year, and we truly cannot imagine our wedding without them. They are the absolute dream team! Even though we were getting married on t...
he Cape, they were hands-on and supportive throughout the entire process—joining us for venue tours, attending our tasting, and always being just a quick message or phone call away. Their responsiveness and attention to detail took so much of the stress out of planning, especially when it came to payment schedules, vendor coordination, and logistics. They even helped us secure a discount at our dream venue, which we had originally written off because of the price tag.
On the big day, they were the calm, reassuring presence every couple hopes for. They seamlessly blended into the background while still being right there whenever we needed them. It was like they were everywhere at once, anticipating every need. They kept us on schedule so we didn't have to worry at all about our timeline, but also never made us feel rushed. Our wedding party and families even commented on how amazing and attentive they were. The morning after our wedding, all of our cards and belongings had been carefully brought back to our hotel and they even shared some sweet behind the scenes pictures and videos so we could see all the little details we missed in the excitement!
We are so grateful for everything they did to make our day perfect—if you're considering working with them, do it. They are absolute pros and the kind of people you absolutely want at your wedding!
The absolute dream team! Hiring Taylor and Samantha was hands-down one of the best decisions we made during our wedding planning process. They brought an incredible mix of calm, st...
yle, and competence to a day that could’ve easily felt overwhelming. The day-of execution was seamless. Our guests are still talking about how beautiful and smooth the day felt. I can’t recommend them enough. They truly brought my Pinterest mood board to life, and they truly got us as a couple.
Samantha and Taylor are absolutely a DREAM team!!! I booked them for month of coordination because I am local to the Outer Banks and my only regret of my entire wedding is that I d...
id not book them for full service. They kept in touch with me from the beginning and offered their opinion on vendors and even found us the best DJ/Band EVER. The entire process was smooth and felt seamless and they worked so well with all of my vendors. They calmed my nerves right before I walked down the aisle and I will forever remember that moment and be thankful for them. Their attention to details is unmatched. I am so happy with my decision to use them and would recommend them to anyone!
The most important decision we made early on in our daughter's wedding planning process was to hire Coastyle Weddings. Samantha and Taylor guided us through every step of the way, ...
providing invaluable information about venues, vendors, timelines, and many other details, always keeping the wishes of the bride and groom at the forefront. The wedding celebration was wonderful, despite some weather challenges, which Samantha and Taylor handled like the pros that they are. We are so grateful for all they did to make our daughter's wedding a fun and joyful celebration for all.
These girls were beyond AMAZING! They didn't miss one detail and have become friends for life. I couldn't have prayed for anyone better to have coordinated our wedding. They wer...

Samantha and Taylor are AMAZING. If you’re on the fence, you need them! They were extremely responsive, helpful, professional but most importantly fun (no one needs added stress on...
their wedding day!). They listened to our vision and made it better than I could’ve imagined. They seriously took out the stress and worry of planning a wedding and allowed us to be able to enjoy our day. They were always there to help day of as well and I can’t thank them enough for being apart of it. I would recommend their services to anyone no matter how big or small the wedding. Absolutely lovely working with them!
Working with the Coastyle team was easily the best decision we made throughout the course of our wedding planning! A few people wondered why we chose to bring wedding planners from...
the Outer Banks all the way to Fredericksburg, VA, but I had seen them work their magic at a friend's wedding and knew they were the girls for the job. From the day they started my month-of coordination, I felt such a weight lifted off my shoulders. They handled all the details with confidence and I knew I no longer needed to worry about keeping track of every little thing - they had it completely under control! With expertise and foresight, they crafted the perfect timeline and planned a perfect day for us with everything we could have possibly imagined. No question was too silly and they made sure every request was heard and implemented. They handled so many logistics with grace, kept our timeline on track and allowed us to be totally present with friends and family. Thanks to Taylor and Samantha, we had an absolutely perfect wedding!
I'm sitting down to write this review a few weeks after my wedding and it feels difficult to articulate the many ways in which Samantha and Taylor made the experience as near to pe...
rfect as it possibly could've been. I could wax poetic about their articulate communication style, willingness to adapt to random requests, and a genuine openness to sharing their years of wedding wisdom with us ... and well, I will.
Samantha and Taylor are phenomenal and I use that word quite literally. They exceeded every expectation that we had and in many senses made the day feel surreal. The Coastyle team made us feel seen, cherished, and celebrated through every aspect of the planning process. No question was too silly or basic, no random idea was pushed aside, and at the first sign of an anxiety, they were there to help calm our nerves and show us a clear path forward.
As a groom, it's often assumed that your bride is in the drivers seat. And, of course, she was my primary concern. But my ideas, contributions, and thoughts on how things could unfold during the wedding were always given consideration by Sam and Taylor. It made me feel incredibly special, heard, and encouraged to be as invested in the planning process as my wife. As my bride and I worked together as a team to make decisions, we were in lockstep with the Coastyle team every single step of the way. If the process of planning a wedding is like traversing a minefield of bad decisions, incorrect orders, and forgotten due dates, it never felt like we were in danger as Sam and Taylor have made the journey many times back and forth.
While the many months (in our case, years) of planning constitute the vast majority of the relationship with a wedding planner team, I'd be remiss to not mention how wonderfully the day of festivities unfolded. Amongst the many people I've talked to about their weddings, it is fairly common to hear about some silly mishap or moment during the wedding where things seemed to go awry. Maybe it was a misspoken name, technical difficulties, or late transportation. Sam and Taylor not only were by our sides the entire day of the wedding, they helped ensure that everything went seamlessly. Every aspect of the coordination was perfect - our rides were on time, our run of show down to the minute, and it felt like working with Coastyle gave us the permission to let go of every lingering question and simply enjoy the day.
Suffice to say, working with Coastyle was one of the best decisions we made in our wedding journey and for that reason alone, I'd encourage you to reach out and see how Sam and Taylor can make magic happen for your special day. However, beyond their prowess as planners, they are truly delightful people. Fun-loving, laid-back, and friendly beyond a business capacity. I'm proud to truly consider them friends.
If more stars were available to give, these ladies deserve them all!! I cannot say enough about how wonderful of an experience it was to work with Coastyle Weddings & Events to pla...
n our special day. First, and most importantly, Samantha & Taylor are beautiful people who sincerely have you and your partner’s best interest at heart, making you feel safe and at-ease when entrusting them with your wedding day. For someone who could endlessly belabor over countless options, having experts guide you to the best possible vendors for your needs is an unmatchable service! They made the biggest, most difficult decisions seem like a breeze and held our hands every step of the way as we navigated the minutia. As for the wedding day, every one of my wildest dreams came true, and it was a treat to have them there throughout the day to seamlessly guide us through, allowing us to enjoy the culmination of a year’s worth of planning and all those who came to celebrate with us. I cannot count how many people told me during and after the wedding that it was the most beautiful event they had ever been to - and credit goes to Coastyle!!!
Samantha, Taylor, and Gentry are true professionals and just lovely people in general to work with. The wedding planning process can be overwhelming, but from day 1 almost a year o...
ut from my wedding, they made me feel like I was taken care of. As a new bride, I had trouble fully articulating how I imagined my wedding, but they were amazing at taking my half formed ideas and transforming them into the most beautiful wedding day I could have imagined. They truly listen to make sure they are understanding your vision, all while providing support based on their extensive knowledge. Their vendor recommendations were spectacular and their day of coordination was extremely organized and smooth. They go above and beyond in every aspect, thinking of every single detail, and we truly cannot recommend them enough. We will miss our Coastyle email notifications for sure, but will always cherish the memories they helped create.
Hiring Coastyle is like planning your wedding with your best friends who don't get tired of hearing about your crazy ideas or problems or breakdowns, and who happen to also have in...
credible style and taste. They take the time to get to know you personally and what you really want your wedding to be about, which is an absolutely priceless gift (especially at the end) when you are decision fatigued and running out of steam. I completely trusted that they knew me and knew what I would want at every step of the process.
They extremely responsive and available no matter how trivial your concern or question may seem, they are there with you through every step of the process. They made the process so painless, there is 0 chance I would've survived the process without them.
When I walked into our wedding for the first time, it was like they somehow took the dream wedding in my head (that I wasn't even sure I had accurately described to them in enough detail) and pasted it onto our venue, plus extra things I didn't even know I needed or wanted. Several of our friends and family said that it was basically like I threw up and a perfect wedding came out (sorry for the visual, but it was) and they were completely responsible for making that happen..
They allowed my husband and I and our families to completely enjoy the day and it was literally the happiest, most pure bliss I've probably felt in my entire life and I could never have had that if it wasn't for Coastyle and the passion and expertise they bring to everything they do. We got endless compliments on how wonderful and easy they made our day from our guests.
As soon as I stepped foot to our venue, I got to turn my brain off and let them take it from there, which is a truly priceless experience and I am so incredibly grateful I chose them. I know wedding planning is expensive, but if you're going to splurge on something, make it them. Just do it. You'll thank yourself later, I promise. They made our day not only my aesthetic dream but emotionally the most perfect day I could've ever imagined.
These ladies have it all. They were the absolute backbone to my perfect wedding day. As a bride who struggled with creative expression, overthinking and high stress…. They were eve...
rything. They helped me create the vision I had in my head and always kept me calm and never worrying because I knew they had everything managed. They reached out to every vendor for us, set up meetings and handled all communications leading up to the wedding. They attended those meetings and took notes for us and would make sure to send a recap email afterwords to everyone. Not having to worry about these things was an immense relief for us. We knew if we ever had a question about anything, even the smallest detail- we could shoot them an email and they would get back to us ASAP with their expert opinion. These ladies became like family to us in this process. Not only are they incredible wedding planners but they are incredible people. Their spunk, charisma, and kindness were just the cherry on top with them. I can’t overstate how essential these ladies were to us. They were the most important part of our wedding and we, without a doubt, couldn’t have done it without Samantha and Taylor. They are spectacular!
Let's face it. Weddings are expensive. You will need to pick where you want your "wow" factor to be and some things you will need to let go of. But make no mistake your most import...
ant decision is a full service wedding planner who knows your vendors, can coordinate and negotiate on your behalf and pull off flawless execution on your wedding day. Without this none of the magic will happen! Coastyle Events was the first and most important decision we made. We are "blown away" with how they took our daughter's vision and turned it into reality. It was way beyond our expectations and we enjoyed every minute because there was absolutely no worry about the details. Coastyle worked tirelessly to ensure the day was perfect! We can thank you enough Taylor and Samantha!💕
The Coastyle team was an amazing experience. They were positive and professional through the planning as well as the day of the event. They made us feel as if our wedding was the e...
vent of the year. Would highly recommend, the day went off without issue and expectations where exceeded.
These women are totally dedicated to what they do and pour their hearts into their clients. When planning a wedding you will need lots of support. No matter how much you think you ...
can do it on your own or want to save money, it's so much better to trust these experienced ladies who will take good care of you so you can enjoy everything. We were so impressed with all that they did and are forever grateful to have had them!
My wife and I worked with the Coastyle Team for our destination wedding and welcome dinner, and they were amazing to work with & made planning from afar very easy. Sam, Taylor and ...
Gentry were diligent in their work, prompt for every meeting and event, and were exceptionally organized. They paid attention to every detail and had thorough questions to ensure the weekend was exactly what we envisioned. Their familiarity with other vendors was extremely helpful as they communicated and coordinated with them for each of our events. The team also built out a thorough timeline for us and our vendors for both days, and provided a platform to use that was easy to navigate and helped with the planning. During the weekend, they were engaged and present, supportive for any issues or questions we had. By the end of our time with them, we felt like they were a part of the family by and even took the time at the end of the night to take a photo for our guest book and had some heartfelt things to say. They were BEYOND INCREDIBLE and we would recommend them to anyone considering a wedding in the Outer Banks. If you choose the Coastyle Team, you will be in fantastic hands for your special day!
COASTYLE is incredible in every aspect you can imagine. Whatever I needed, you name it, these girls got it done! I was a month of bride and planned an OBX wedding from Maryland. I ...
had a lower wedding budget and worked with a lot of vendors. They managed all the points of contact beautifully. I also had a ton of DIY aspects that they conquered the set up on! They gave countless recommendations and tips on vendors/things in the area since I wasn't from OBX. They made our timeline and prioritized US, THE BRIDE AND GROOM, the day of! From a bride that has anxiety I can honestly say that my wedding day was a day I remained stress free. I had time with the people that matter so much to me and I will forever be grateful to Coastyle for this!
I woke up the day after our wedding (after way too much partying) and rolled over to my bouquet placed so sweetly in a vase, with water, on the table next to me. This is just one explain of how they truly took care of all the little things.
My only regret was not booking them as full service wedding planners! I would recommend any couple to really prioritize your wedding planner and work them into your budget. They truly are your right hand girls! They made the day so much fun!! GO BOOK THEM!!
Wow! Where do we even begin with Coastyle! From the moment I saw Coastyle in action when they were working with of my best friend’s weddings back in June of 2021, I was blown away ...
by their incredible ability to handle every single detail of her wedding, taking every bit of stress off of her while setting up for the wedding, helping all vendors, organize any and everything to get things ready on time and to make her day absolutely perfect.
They take wedding planning to a whole new level from every meeting, venue walk through, tastings, phone calls, FaceTimes, countless emails and texts they were always there, going above and beyond for us. They brought my wedding vision to life and did it even better than my expectations. I will never be able to say thank you enough. I called them my life savers multiple times throughout the wedding planning process. They did even more for us than our contract stated because they cared so deeply to make our wedding day picture perfect.
We hired Samantha & Taylor to be our wedding planners but they became our family over the years of working together from being in weddings they worked for and from planning our own wedding. When our wedding had past it was so emotional for me knowing I wouldn’t be able to talk with them daily like I had the last year because they truly made our dream wedding come to life and they’re both such kind, talented, hardworking women. Their dedication to every part of our wedding planning took so much weight off of my shoulders considering I couldn’t do it with two busy children and a life we had already started before we got married.
My advice for any upcoming brides thinking about booking Coastyle, DO IT. I would’ve never met the majority of my vendors, my dream wedding venue, and had the most beautiful wedding if it wasn’t for Coastyle. They’re more than just wedding planners. They’re people who care about two people falling in love and having the wedding of their dreams come to life. They will always hold a special place in my heart and they will always be our family. The Cummings family loves you Coastyle! Keep slaying this thing called wedding planning!
We are a destination couple, married in September 2022 and there is no way our wedding would have been the success that it was without Sam and Taylor! They are a powerhouse duo tha...
t think of it all. They are extremely knowledgeable, personable, and handle everything with grace. They think of EVERYTHING. From the big moments to small details. Even our guests and family complimented how they kept everything on track and didn’t miss a beat. Their preferred vendor list is filled with only the best of the best in OBX, their communication is quick/helpful, and they made what could have been a stressful process FUN! I had a million questions and they always answered, provided their expert opinion, and kept in mind what was important to us. They also have a monthly newsletter and post great content on their Instagrams for inspiration. They go above and beyond and really care about making your wedding day perfect. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all of your help. HIRE COASTYLE! It will be the best decision you make while planning your big day!
There are no words to describe the professionalism, organization, and kindness that the ladies of Coastyle deliver. My family surprised me with them as our wedding planners for my ...
birthday, after I spent months stalking their incredibly aesthetic Instagram, and it was truly the most incredible gift I could have ever received. Samantha and Taylor took my entire Pinterest board and brought it to life. (In fact, they exceeded ALL of my visions.) They made wedding planning SO enjoyable and seamless and truly provided the most luxurious experience. We simply could not have asked for better wedding planners and cannot recommend them enough. While there are truly no words to convey how amazing these ladies are, know that they have forever touched the hearts of my husband and I. We will cherish every email exchange, Zoom call, and meeting we had with them in our hearts forever, as we attribute every part of our perfect day to their planning and dedication. Do yourself a favor and book these beautiful ladies. They are worth every dime and more!
Where do we even begin? I could truly write a novel on how invaluable Samantha and Taylor are. We could not have done this wedding without them. We have been working with them for ...
almost 2 years, we did an in person visit with them and they took us to every vendor and location and made it so fun! They shared their genuine opinions and found us the dream team of vendors that fit our style and vision for our wedding day. We then came back with our family 4 months later and a year before the wedding and did another in person meeting with them and more vendors- it is truly a full service experience!
What started as a business relationship truly turned into a friendship. Samantha and Taylor ended up feeling like family, to the point where we will call them every time we come in town to visit. Coastyle genuinely cares about their clients, and their entire planning experience.
Besides loving them as people, professionally, you will not find a better duo than Samantha and Taylor. They were 100% honest with us and so organized. Wedding planning can feel so overwhelming, especially doing it half way across the country and Coastyle made it look and feel effortless. They captured my style and personality instantly and made what felt like the impossible possible.
The wedding day was 100% seamless. Coastyle spent so much time on the logistics and timeline.I loved every detail of my wedding, and although it was truly beautiful, the logistics of the day was what most important to us and our guests and why it was such a successful event. We truly did not have to worry about a single thing. We were instantly moved to the next location or event. I remember standing on the dance floor as the wedding cake was being walked out to us and turning to my husband and saying woah I forgot about this- it was like magic. I never felt like I was worried about people and things being in the right places. I cannot stress enough how amazing Taylor and Samantha were at making the day flawless. It felt like a movie. Taylor and Samantha understand the importance of your wedding day. They make you feel completely validated in every worry and decision. They are the behind the scenes DREAM TEAM. You wont find two wedding planners who are more dedicated, genuine, and professional than Coastyle. My biggest piece of advice to any bride would be to hire a full service wedding planner specifically COASTYLE! We miss them already.
Samantha and Taylor are AMAZING!
It was an absolute pleasure working with these girls for my destination wedding in Corolla, NC. They made my planning so simple and my wedding da...
y stress-free. Not only are they good at what they do but they are so genuine, kind, and willing to go above and beyond for their clients. If you are looking for planners that are dedicated to making your day one of a kind go with Coastyle!!
Samantha and Taylor are IT!
We were married in November. From the start, we knew we'd have a busy year competing for vendors with couples who had to cancel or postpone the previou...
s year due to Covid. These ladies were ready to rock the first time we spoke with them, and they consistently made us feel heard, which eased so much of our anxiety! On top of that, we ourselves had a wild year of starting new jobs and moving to a new city (something we DON'T recommend doing while also planning a wedding!), but these girls made it so seamless- answering all of our questions, and doing magic behind the scenes, even when we were often pretty bad about staying on schedule. We're both NC natives but now live in California, so we went with their full-service package since it can be incredibly difficult to plan a wedding on the opposite coast. We cannot recommend them enough! They covered all the bases and helped us build a kick-ass vendor team. If you're like us and not so great at event planning, you absolutely MUST hire these ladies.
Our wedding was outdoors, and the weather decided to drop about 20 degrees and the wind turned into gusts (which totally freaked me out), but Samantha and Taylor were so calm and came prepared to tackle anything. I want to also acknowledge how kind and understanding these two are. Samantha and Taylor were so gracious and totally cucumber cool when we had some family drama day of the wedding.
The passion they have for this work, and the genuine interest they have in YOUR day are so real! These ladies know what they're doing, and you can rest assured that you are in great hands with them. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for turning our dream day into reality.
I can't say enough wonderful things about Samantha and Taylor! We live in VA and wanted to get married on the Outer Banks during our October vacation. It was just the two of us (we...
eloped), and we needed someone to help us plan our wedding. We were thrilled when we found out Coastyle did elopements! Samantha and Taylor were responsive right from the start, and after our first phone call we knew we had picked the right planners. They provided us with a list of their preferred vendors and made suggestions based on what we wanted our wedding to be. They asked so many questions and made us think about things we hadn't even considered. And I thought I was detail-oriented but Samantha and Taylor put me to shame! They were on top of all the details, all the time. I can only imagine how terrific they would also be for a larger wedding. If you're hesitant about hiring a planner because you think you don't need one, please reconsider. Samantha and Taylor made my life so much easier, I don't know what I would have done without them!
Y’all - if you are planning a wedding anywhere these amazing ladies are a MUST. My biggest regret was not being able to hire them from the start. We chose a venue (Sanderling Resor...
t) in OBX that came with a coordinator but then decided we needed extra help for month and day of planning. These women are everything. Wedding ninjas is an understatement! Once the 30 day countdown started (and even before) they were on it. We got to enjoy the last month of being engaged without planning - imagine if I had them from the start. Taylor and Samantha - thank you for everything you did! You made our wedding day stress free so that we could soak in every moment! We are forever grateful - it brings me to tears how thankful we are for you! Amazing work!
Hiring the ladies from Coastyle was honestly one of the best decisions we made during our planning process. Samantha and Taylor are both so kind and helpful, and they are strong an...
d reassuring during the stressful moments. Having COVID a month before the wedding wasn't ideal, but they helped us work out all of the last minute detail. Our day of was a fairy tale, they captured our vision so perfectly and they kept us on our timeline so that our day could be stress free. Definitely recommend using Coastyle to help with all of your planning needs- especially if all the details stress you out!
The #1 piece of advice other brides gave me was that I needed a day of planner. I gawked at spending that kind of money for something I could surely do myself, but set my pride dow...
n and said “fine” IF I CAN GIVE YOU ONE PIECE OF ADVICE IT IS GET A DAY OF PLANNER. I am a project manager at an event planning software company. I can plan an event. As a bride, you will reach a point that you are on the verge of a mental breakdown and just need some help. They FLUNG into action gracefully and pulled EVERY. SINGLE. LITTLE. THING. together.
We had a COVID wedding that they made so easy to switch. We chatted on the phone and I gave them all of my vendor details. I thought I had thought of everything, but they reminded me of so many little things that I had overlooked like signage, a flower girl basket, etc.
Of course I had already sent my invitations when they told me that 5 hours is pretty normal for a ceremony and wedding and mine was 7…plus it’s on an island (not accessible by car, only boat) so people are literally stuck. CUE PANIC. They were so calm and cool and suggested some options to make it work. We added a passing appetizer to avoid overconsumption and decided to offer a few additional shuttles as needed throughout the night prior to the final shuttle back. We put their phone numbers on the hospitality bag cards and they happily coordinated any boat shuttles back to the island prior to our final wedding shuttle. They coordinated with the DJ to make announcements when they were planned and I didn’t have to worry about anyone being trapped. Crisis #1 averted.
As the day approached I started getting a bit nervous because I had infamously unresponsive vendors (for example I called and emailed my florist 5+ times over the course of 2 months and didn’t get a response) and these ladies managed to get a hold of them. I don’t know how they did it, but BLESS. They called me about two weeks out with a big list of things they were wondering from documentation I had sent them. Small details I overlooked on my own and my vendors overlooked - an extra side to the tent, an extra fork for cake, things like that. They also sent me an email on how much I should be tipping which vendors, which was so nice of them. They had me make envelopes with tips in them in advance and labeled so they could distribute them on my behalf day of. It gave me plenty of time to review and followup with vendors to get things corrected without stress.
I had no opinions about a lot of things, like place setting and sign placement. They happily made executive decisions and added tasteful touches like attach greenery to all my signs so they looked flawless. They were also happy to not insert their opinions when I was set on something. The perfect balance. It was windy, so geniuses they are left the signs on the ground until the last minute so they didn’t go flying everywhere. So many random things happening so I didn’t even notice to make it all perfect.
During dinner it started POURING and they were at the sweetheart table moving it before the first drop hit the ground so we didn’t get wet. I am obsessed with them and they did everything to perfection. I would say some of my vendors were like 2.5-3 stars, but these guys were literally 10,000 stars and beyond and helped those 2.5 star vendors look more like 5 star vendors. I would have literally jumped in the river and quit without them. They were my saving grace and my queens. If I wasn’t clear enough, HIRE THEM!
The backstory - our destination wedding got cancelled twice due to COVID and on a whim, 6 weeks out from the date, we decided to book a house in OBX and throw a wedding. By luck of...
the Instagram algorithm I had been following Coastyle Events for some time and when we booked the house I knew our day wouldn’t be perfect without them. I was super lucky that they agreed to squeeze us onto their calendar for month of services. Samantha and Taylor’s guidance pointed us in the right direction to secure all of our vendors last minute and their recommendations were spot on. They handled all of the final communication and little details that you just don’t want to be thinking about on the day of your wedding like should we bump that table 4 feet to the left or are we sure all the place settings are complete? They handled the hiccups we knew about like having the wrong rum in the signature drink or someone getting a cut and needing a bandaid - to all the ones we didn’t know even happened. We had a friend tell us weeks after the fact that these ladies helped them sew up a hole in their dress the day of the wedding! They were discreetly making sure everything was perfect and with their help, it truly was. Beyond them being awesome at their jobs every call or conversation I had with them was wonderful. They are so kind, responsive and thoughtful! I’m the type of person who thinks I can do everything myself but for your own wedding you shouldn’t have to! You should hire Samantha and Taylor to take care of it all and enjoy the experience. You will not regret it!
Where do I even begin! Samantha and Taylor are a true dream team. Not only do they work on the Outer Banks but they also are willing to travel for their business and let me just sa...
y, they definitely know what they are doing! These ladies made my dream wedding in Virginia come to life. Throughout the short months of working together they stayed on top of communicating with vendors and doing their research and they always got back to me right away. They are tremendously organized and always seemed so calm, especially knowing they have several other clients they work with. I know I couldn’t handle that kind of business and they definitely took the stress and hassle of wedding planning off my shoulders! Both of them are so caring and have hard work ethics and are very determined to get the job done and to get it done right. You can tell they love what they do! After all the planning and finally the wedding, the entire experience has me wanting a wedding every year on mine and my husband’s anniversary and I know exactly who I would use as my planners again!
Love Coastyle!!
Coastyle Wedding-Samantha & Taylor were AMAZING to work with while planning a destination wedding in the OBX! They listened carefully to the Bride and Groom's wishes, were very pr...
ompt in returning emails/answering questions, attentive to detail, and delightful to work with. Being the mother of the groom, not familiar with the OBX, and a bit of a skeptic, Coastyle Weddings, along with Bride, planned everything to perfection!! Absolutely fabulous!! Could not recommend them enough!!
I can honestly say that we would not have been able to have the day that we wanted without the assistance of Coastyle. From our planning 1.5 years out all the way through our big d...
ay - Coastyle was in touch with us and made us feel like we were their only priority. It was truly a pleasure to work with such energetic and attentive planners. They looked out for us and saw what was coming, they provided wonderful suggestions, and they were superstars on our wedding day. We are truly grateful to have worked with such fine people and encourage EVERYONE to use them for their weddings as well!
If I could give 100 stars I would! Every last detail and every second of our wedding was perfect thanks to Samantha and Taylor! They thought of things I never would have and made s...
ure every single thing we wanted and more was executed seamlessly! We truly felt catered to all day & now I can’t even imagine our day without them. I cannot say enough great things to even give them the justice and praise they deserve. Just hire them! ❤️
I really don’t even know where to begin with these two! They really are just so awesome. They thought about things that didn’t even cross my mind. They really did make sure every b...
ox was checked off. Within my budget, they provided me with the most beautiful vendors. They go above and beyond for their clients. I truly mean that. Their attention to detail and professionalism really impressed me as well. They talked to me almost daily and helped me with every obstacle I threw at them. They are so sweet and their adorable relationship as coworkers and friends is really something special. Because of them, I had the most perfect, beautiful, memorable wedding. If you’re thinking about having a wedding, especially in the Outer Banks, they are your girls!
We HIGHLY recommend Coastyle. When we started to plan our wedding, we had a decent idea as to what we wanted. My wife and I had been married before, so we weren't looking for the c...
ookie-cutter, modern wedding. But whereas we had SOME idea on certain things, we also had NO idea on many other things. Samantha and Taylor were the absolutely perfect fit. They figured us out quickly and modified their approach to what we were looking for. They made great recommendations for caterers, where to stay, venue info, etc, etc. And they were right there with us every step of the way. We knew we could hop on a call with them at any moment and that they'd be enthusiastic to help. And I can't say enough about how great it was to have the two of them working together. There was never any confusion, as they seem to have a mind meld going on, and on the day of the wedding it was great to have two of them around. I can't say enough about them and I HIGHLY recommend you check them out. Thanks Sam and Taylor!
I honestly can't recommend Taylor and Samantha's services highly enough. They were supportive, professional, timely, knowledgeable, kind, and SO helpful with navigating the wedding...
planning process. I grew up on the Outer Banks and still found their insight, knowledge, and connections with vendors in the area to be incredibly helpful. The timeline they created and executed for our wedding day truly made it one of the happiest and most enjoyable days of our lives. Thank you so much!!!
Coastyle Events is the best choice on the OBX for coordinating your wedding. Samantha & Taylor are extremely professional. Their attention to detail is amazing. Whether you deci...
de on the full package or month of services, they will take care of you down to very last detail! We are a local family so choosing month of services was perfect for us. If you are choosing the OBX for a destination wedding you will probably need help in choosing and booking your vendors. Whatever you decide, go with Coastyle Events and enjoy your Big Day!! Samantha & Taylor will take care of everything!
Taylor and Samantha are amazing wedding planners. They are super responsive and organized. They made finding vendors a breeze. They helped us navigate wedding planning/rescheduling...
during the pandemic which alleviated a lot of stress. Highly recommended!
Taylor & Samantha were the month of coordinators for our wedding in Nags Head on 10/24/2020. My husband and I highly highly recommend Coastyle for any of your event needs! Let’s fa...
ce it- planning a wedding is not easy but they made every step of the way a breeze and kept everything incredibly organized! They picked up the slack for other vendors that did not come through and made our day go off without a hitch. My husband and I both felt like we had been friends with them for years, which made things so comfortable. They’re so down to earth and easy to work with. I wish we could have a wedding every weekend with Taylor & Samantha.
COASTYLE EVENTS was AMAZING! The team was very professional, punctual, and gave us a stress free wedding. The cost of the 30 day out package is well worth it. Samantha & Taylor han...
dled all the issues that popped up the last month with ease and grace. We HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend this dynamic team to any newly engaged couple!
We enjoyed having Samantha and Taylor of Coaststyle Weddings & Events as our wedding planners. They were very organized and asked the right questions as we thought through everyth...
ing ahead of time. They were especially helpful on the day of. They kept everything on schedule in a professional and congenial way. They took care of the details and we were able to enjoy our day. I highly recommend them. Love these ladies!
Taylor and Samantha were amazing throughout the whole process of planning our 150+ person wedding on the beach in Corolla, NC at Pine Island Lodge. From the first meeting to the da...
y of, they were organized, extremely professional, thoughtful, and continuously patient (we had a lot of cooks in the kitchen with opinions). They pushed when needed (to ensure we met deadlines and booked and paid our vendors), but also stayed out of the way and didn't over-communicate or nag. They had excellent recommendations for vendors who they had worked with before, but were also completely open to working with new folks and supported all of our wacky out of the box requests (e.g. pinatas during the reception lol). On the day of, they managed all the vendors (a small Army!) with precision and ease and shielded us from any commotions, decisions, and issues that came up - I literally felt zero stress, didn't have to make any decisions, and was completely in awe of the final decor when I finally saw it after getting ready with my bridesmaids. They have great taste, lots of experience, and an excellent eye for setting up the venue and managing the flow of guests. I cannot recommend Coastyle enough - they will ensure your wedding day is both perfect and 100% you.
Samantha and Taylor were both SO amazing. The first time we met about the wedding they took note on every detail we wanted at the ceremony and reception and also the entire flow of...
the wedding day. They contacted all the vendors to make sure everything was set correctly for the day. You really feel like you build such a relationship with both of these beautiful girls and they are right by your side for whatever you need and whenever, they make it happen. I have grown up here on the Outer Banks and I am so happy they were available for my big day. I trusted them so much and they made my dream wedding come true. I would choose them over and over again <3
Samantha and Taylor were an absolute blessing throughout the wedding planning process. My *now* husband and I fell in love with the Outer Banks and decided we wanted to get married...
there, but we didn’t necessarily know what we were getting ourselves into - planning a wedding from a different state. We got engaged in June and booked Coastyle in August, while planning to get married in September of the following year. They were amazing through the entire process. They answered every question (and there were a lot) with a happy, encouraging response that allowed for me to feel so calm every time I talked to them. The day of our wedding, they made every dream I had for our setup possible, IF they didn’t completely go above and beyond what I could have ever imagined. They are sweet, talented and creative. They are definitely the duo you want in your corner when it comes to your wedding. Book them as your coordinators, you will NOT regret it! ❤️
Samantha and Taylor of Coastyle Weddings & Events are amazing! Their support and guidance every step of the way in planning my daughter's wedding went above and beyond. From reco...
mmending vendors for my daughter's vision to keeping me on track with decision making and payments, I could not have asked for a better team!
If you are considering hiring a wedding planner for your wedding in the Outer Banks, you cannot go wrong with Coastyle Weddings & Events! They really are "simply the best"!
Stop your search and hire these two!! Samantha and Taylor made the last month of the wedding go off without a hitch. They helped double check our numbers, created the timeline, cre...
ated the layout, contact vendors to double check numbers, and help tie up any loose ends before the big day. You want these two for your wedding day, truly the sweetest people who work hard to make sure the day is everything you dreamed of and more!! Not only are they trendy and know the current styles, but they will help make suggestions based on their experience and based on you as a couple. My biggest worry was that my mom would want to step in and help that day, but she even said she didn’t worry about that the entire weekend. She was able to relax and enjoy herself because Samantha and Taylor were there. Thank you a million time over to these two rockstars!! Seriously... hire them!
if you’re getting married anywhere near OBX and haven’t hired these ladies, I need you to sit down and reevaluate.
This text box isn’t enough to describe the incredibly amazing wo...
rk these ladies do for their clients! I’m still in shock.
I had no wedding inspo. No idea what I wanted, No idea where, concept, etc.... literally not a clue. However after just ONE meeting with Samantha and Taylor, our vision started coming to life. Since then, these girls handled EVERYTHING and were able to help us create our dream wedding.
Our wedding day perfect. I mean PERFECT. Every single aspect. I cannot thank Samantha and Taylor enough for what they did for us, and I could not have imagined ever planning a wedding with out them. 10/10.
Samantha & Taylor are amazing! I reached out to them months before our wedding because I knew I needed a day-of coordinator for our big day. Tyler & I were planning an out of town ...
wedding & knowing Samantha from college & that she was from the area we were getting married in I was excited to hear they'd travel to Richmond to work with us. Being a wedding coordinator myself, I wanted to make sure to hire someone I could trust to run the day as I'd planned, Samantha & Taylor exceeded my expectations. We had a wedding party that was a handful to say the least and families that were most likely overwhelming and they handled everything with such ease, never skipping a beat and very professional. They made myself and Tyler feel comfortable that everything would be taken care of the weekend of the wedding and especially made me feel like I didn't have to micro manage everything and I could just hand my plans over to them to bring to life. I cannot say enough amazing things about Samantha & Taylor with Coastyle Weddings & Events, they are true professionals and if you're looking to hire coordinators for your wedding, I highly recommend them!
