Hi! Thank you for taking the time to get to know us more! I am a mathematical Type-A spreadsheet girl, a Starbucks lover, a travel fanatic, a seeker of new and exciting things, and a lover of any kind of bubbles! :) I have been planning for over 12 years yet still get teary when “my” bride walks down the aisle. I am not your typical "too-serious" planner and seriously enjoy having fun while I’m planning and have made many life-long friends of my past brides. I have a true passion for making others happy, and I can’t wait to hear how I can help you on your journey! Cheers to a happy beginning!

When I started planning my wedding the first thing I researched was the best planner in NC and immediately found Lisa! From the very first call we had she felt like a friend I’ve k...
now forever and I knew I could trust her with our big day and boy did she deliver!! Lisa and her team are masters of their craft but what really sets them apart is how personable they are and truly how much they care about the couples they work with. When I say no detail was missed I mean it. She was all over our vendors to ensure we made our deadlines, guided all of our design session, crafted the timeline to perfection and day off I didn’t lift a finger. I thought I would have been a ball of stress day of but between Lisa and Gianni I had total peace of mind that everything was under control.
I cannot thank Lisa and team enough for making the wedding of our dreams come true and would highly recommend them to any future brides out there!

Literally the best planners I could have worked with. Lisa and Valerie were AMAZING. Responded quickly about anything, so sweet, planned our wedding so well and everything went so ...
smoothly and I wasn’t stressed because of them. They nailed down every detail to a tea and took care of so much. They have so much great experience, knowledge, and are super professional. On top of that, they are such great people.
100% recommend!!!!!

Ashley with Lisa Pleasant Events was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the moment we started working with her, we felt completely supported and confiden...
t that everything was in capable hands. As our partial planner, Ashley stepped in exactly where we needed guidance—keeping us and all of the various vendors organized, answering our endless questions, and helping us navigate all the moving pieces that come with planning a wedding.
She provided incredible vendor recommendations, helped us refine our vision, and made sure no detail was overlooked. I had changed my mind several times about certain details, and she happily made all the changes without making me feel like a burden! What stood out most was her professionalism paired with genuine kindness; she always made us feel heard and never once made the process feel overwhelming. Also, all of our vendors had wonderful things to say about working with Ashley!!
On our wedding day, Ashley went above and beyond in ways we will never forget. She had our signature drinks waiting for us immediately after the ceremony, which was such a thoughtful touch and made us feel so taken care of. During our ceremony-to-reception flip, a table accidentally fell, and without us knowing, Ashley completely cleaned everything up and redecorated the entire table beautifully. I truly would have never known anything had even happened—she handled it so seamlessly and calmly.
Because of Ashley, I had absolutely ZERO stress on our wedding day. Everything flowed perfectly, and we were able to be fully present and enjoy every single moment. We are beyond grateful for Ashley and the entire Lisa Pleasant Events team. If you are considering a planner, Ashley is hands down the planner you want on your side.

Booking Lisa was the first step in our wedding process and from the start she was so helpful! Once we picked a venue she connected us with her employee, Emily Whitmore, who was our...
wedding planner. Emily did such an amazing job. She was there to answer any questions we had (and let me tell you we had LOTS of them). She had so many good referrals for other venders (because picking venders can be overwhelming so we went with referrals from Emily for most of them). The day of went so smoothly because of Emily. People always asked if I was stressed and my response was always no and I think that’s mainly because of Emily.

We had the absolute best experience working with Ashley for our wedding on 11/15/2025. From the moment we started the planning process, she made everything feel smooth, organized, ...
and genuinely enjoyable. She brought so much laughter and calmness to what could have been a stressful time.
Throughout the entire wedding day, Ashley was truly exceptional. We received so many compliments from friends and family saying how on top of everything she was. She didn’t just take care of us, she took care of our entire wedding party. Any small issue that popped up, she handled immediately (even tracking down our transportation when needed!). Because of her and her amazing assistant, our day ran flawlessly from morning to night.
We are so grateful for her dedication, professionalism, and kindness. Our wedding was incredible because of the care she put into every detail. We can’t thank her enough and would highly, highly recommend her to any couple looking for someone they can trust wholeheartedly with their big day.

If we could give Lisa more than five stars, we absolutely would. From the very first moment we spoke with her, it was clear that she doesn’t just plan weddings — she creates magic....
She listened to our vision, understood who we are as a couple, and poured her heart into every single detail, making our wedding day feel personal, intentional, and deeply meaningful.
Lisa became so much more than our planner — she became a guide, a cheerleader, a confidante, and in many ways, a part of our family. She anticipated every need before we even realized it, solved every challenge with grace and creativity, and somehow made the entire planning process feel joyful, effortless, and full of excitement. Her warmth, patience, and genuine care made us feel supported at every step, and her talent ensured that every detail — big or small — was flawless.
On our wedding day, her magic was everywhere. Every moment unfolded seamlessly, from the grand celebrations to the quiet, intimate details, and we were able to be fully present and simply soak it all in.
Guests couldn’t stop raving about her — not just for keeping the day running perfectly, but for the love, thoughtfulness, and care she brought to every interaction. She made everyone feel valued, welcomed, and part of something extraordinary.
Lisa didn’t just plan a wedding — she crafted an experience filled with love, joy, and unforgettable moments. Every transition, every timing, every detail reflected her heart and expertise. Our wedding was more beautiful, more seamless, and more meaningful than we ever could have imagined, and that is entirely because of her.
We are endlessly grateful to Lisa. She gave us memories that will last a lifetime, peace of mind, and a day that truly felt like a dream. Anyone fortunate enough to work with her will see that she doesn’t just organize events — she elevates them into something extraordinary, something you carry in your heart forever.
Lisa, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you for everything — for your guidance, your creativity, your patience, and your love. You made our wedding day not just perfect, but magical, and we will never forget it.

le details that make a big difference. Their communication is clear and timely, and they share key information early, which helps our team plan efficiently and focus on what we do best. Their timelines are thoughtfully built and realistic, keeping the day running smoothly without feeling rushed. Lisa, Ashley and the rest of the team are proactive, professional, and genuinely care about making sure every vendor has what they need for a seamless event.
What we love most is their positive energy and calm confidence throughout the day. They handle any challenge gracefully and create such a fun, collaborative atmosphere that makes every wedding a joy to be part of. If you’re looking for planners who are organized, kind, and truly elevate every event they touch, Lisa Pleasant Events is an absolute dream to work with!

Ashley with Lisa Pleasant Events is the reason our wedding day was flawless — even when everything could have gone wrong.
We just got married in September and I truly don’t know w...
hat we would have done without Ashley. She’s calm, brilliant under pressure, and somehow makes chaos disappear before you even notice it’s there.
So.... on the day of the wedding, our cake baker never showed up. No delivery, no call, nothing — and this was just an hour before the reception. I had spent months dreaming about that cake, and when the venue told me it hadn’t arrived, I nearly lost it.
Ashley didn’t even blink. She quietly excused herself, made a few phone calls, and within 45 minutes had arranged for a beautiful 2-tier cake from a local Publix (and a few dozen extra desserts to make up the difference). She grabbed fresh flowers from our centerpiece setup, decorated the cake herself, and somehow made it look like it had been custom-designed for us.
By the time dinner started, no one had any idea there’d been a problem. Guests complimented how perfect the cake looked — and honestly, it was even better than the original one I ordered.
What impressed me most was how calm and kind Ashley stayed through it all. She shielded me from the stress, handled every call, and kept the entire day running smoothly. I got to actually enjoy my wedding instead of worrying about every detail.
If you’re getting married anywhere near Charlotte, hire Ashley with Lisa Pleasant Events. She doesn’t just plan weddings — she saves them, with grace and a smile.

I don’t have enough words to describe how thankful we are for Lisa Pleasant Events, specifically our planner Danielle! Danielle was a perfect fit for us. We had an October wedding ...
at The Biltmore in Asheville. It is a very busy time of year for the wedding industry, but she made us feel like we were the only couple in the world. She was prompt with her responses, thorough with her plans, involved but not overbearing, and executed everything we planned PERFECTLY. She worked with all our vendors amazingly. She made sure our wedding day was above and beyond what we could have ever imagined. There is absolutely no way we could have had the experience we did without her. Book Lisa Pleasant Events and Danielle as soon as you are engaged!!! You will not regret it!!!!

Ashley was the reason our wedding didn’t fall apart — and instead turned out better than we ever imagined. We got married this past May and I can say without hesitation that hiring...
Ashley as our wedding planner was the single best decision we made.
The morning of the wedding, the weather forecast completely flipped — what had been a 10% chance of rain became a full-on thunderstorm warning just two hours before our outdoor ceremony. The venue staff started moving chairs inside, my bridesmaids were panicking, and I was trying not to cry.
Ashley stepped in and took total control, calmly and confidently. She called the rental company and had clear wall panels delivered to add to our tent on rush order, coordinated with the florist to redesign the ceremony arch to fit the new space, and somehow made everything look intentional — like it was always meant to be that way.
While she managed all of that chaos, she also kept me calm. She checked in every few minutes with updates, helped my mom relax, and even made sure I had food and a (very full) glass of Champagne while getting ready.
By ceremony time, the tent was glowing with candles and twinkle lights, the rain was softly hitting the roof, and it turned into the most romantic, storybook moment imaginable. Guests were in awe.
Ashley didn’t just “save” our wedding — she made it even more magical than what we had planned. If anything had gone wrong that day, we never would’ve known. Ashley is professional, unshakable under pressure, and has a gift for turning problems into beauty.
I tell everyone now: if you’re getting married in the Charlotte area, you need Lisa Pleasant Events and you need Ashley.

ASHLEY—is the greatest wedding planner! We had a first look at the top of a grand staircase and a bubble exit, these were her ideas that were executed seamlessly. Makes me emotiona...
l just thinking about it! She pays attention to details and really gets to know what things fit into your vibe, so she can really help center you, especially when you are feeling overwhelmed.
Ashley helped remedy the few hiccups we had at the wedding (none were her fault in any way), and made us so happy. She went above and beyond. She also did an excellent job coordinating and managing the vendors, so I didn’t have to sweat about anything during the wedding.
She truly cares about helping make an everlasting memory. You can tell she’s passionate about what she does and makes it look flawless. I consider her an extension of my family now—because she truly is that special. Highly recommend!
***Update: I gushed about Ashley, but I can’t leave out Lisa too (I was trying to leave two reviews!!!) Lisa started us off with the planning, made me feel so excited about the whole process! She helped us narrow down the photographers to book the ones who were absolutely perfect for us. She’s fabulous in so many ways. What an honor it was to work with Lisa Pleasant Events. My dream wedding became a reality. Thank you so much! :-)

Lisa Pleasants Events is THE BEST!!! We had the absolute honor of having Danielle as our wedding planner. From our very first meeting with her until the last bubbles were blown a...
t The Ballantyne, she NAILED IT! She was ALWAYS available, ready and willing to answer any questions no matter how many times my fiance and I repeated the same question (which was a lot!! haha!). Even when she was busy on weekends on another wedding, she always got back to us. She is one of the most upbeat, positive, and kindest persons with whom I have ever worked. Her bright and beautiful attitude echoed throughout her work, in her interaction with all those involved in the wedding, and in the aura that night that glowed brilliantly over our magical event. Our goal was to have a wedding that EVERYONE, family and friends alike, would enjoy and remember and continue to talk about in the days and weeks to come. And it was accomplished!! We still have guests telling us it was the greatest wedding they have ever attended. There are clients of my wife who have heard and want to know all about it with some of them wanting their wedding to be EXACTLY the same. Thanks to Danielle and the Lisa Pleasant Events Team! You will not go wrong with them. They are PASSIONATE and COMMITTED throughout the process. They will make sure your vision is realized and the day you dreamed about your whole life unfolds before your very eyes like a REAL LIFE FAIRY TALE. We still live in the AFTERGLOW and words can not really express the feelings and emotions we had that night and how thankful we are for the Lisa Pleasant Events team. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We shall never forget our wedding day!! Sincerely and Forever...Patrick and Brenda

I cannot in one short review name all of the things that I appreciate about Lisa and her team. This is my family‘s second wedding event with Lisa at the helm – one was a backyard ...
wedding and the other a destination wedding. In both cases, the event went off flawlessly. Lisa is a meticulous planner with endless unique ideas but equally as careful to capture the vision and desires of her brides. She and her team exude professionalism, precision and calm. Every task is tracked, every i dotted and t crossed. Her skills made the wedding planning process a delight and it has been a great relief to know that she is on top of every detail. If we had issues with vendors, she advocated for us. In fact, I’m confident there were a myriad of issues that probably arose but we never knew about them because Lisa handled them in such a way that allowed us to simply enjoy the day. I cannot recommend her strongly enough.

ll planning services 4 months before my wedding. She responded to me quickly (she somehow manages to always respond quickly) and had a long consult call with me that reassured me that she was exactly who I needed to be working with. Within days, we got the whole process going. Lisa’s attention to detail and level of organization are extraordinary. She was kind and patient while answering the numerous random questions I came up with. As the wedding got closer, she spent so much time making sure that I felt comfortable, reassured, and ready. Emily was my day-of coordinator, though she was very involved throughout the entire process. On the day of the wedding, she was a calming and positive presence for me. She kept every single moving part running smoothly, even as it rained throughout the day. So many of my guests commented on how friendly, professional, and on top of everything she was. Thanks to Emily and her wonderful assistant, Elle, I was able to just focus on enjoying and making the most of my wedding day without any additional stress. Overall, thanks to Lisa Pleasant Events, I had the wedding of my dreams and was able to hold onto my sanity along the way. I cannot thank and recommend them enough!! If you are considering wedding planning services, DO IT for your own sake and for the joy of working with these incredible women!

re plan and coordinate our wedding. Everything went so smoothly and I don’t know what we would’ve done without her! She was so calm, professional, and organized. She always had a solution to every issue that arose and made this day so perfect and smooth. Transitions were flawless and our guests were so impressed with the entire wedding experience! Thank you Lisa Pleasant Events for helping us with the best day of our lives!

If I could give Lisa Pleasant 1,000,000 stars, I would!! I can't recommend Lisa and her team enough. We worked with Paula Pinto and truly feel that she was the MVP of our entire we...
dding weekend. Paula is incredibly organized, responsive and thoughtful in every way. She made us feel comfortable and kept us on track throughout the entire wedding planning process. All of our friends and family LOVED her! We could not have had the wedding of our dreams without Paula and all that she did to go above and beyond. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

From the moment we met Lisa, we knew we were in great hands. She was referred to us by one of her previous brides, who happened to be my husband’s sister, and she had nothing but e...
xceptional things to say about Lisa as a person and as a wedding coordinator. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and passion for her work made the entire, year-long wedding planning process completely stress-free and genuinely enjoyable. Lisa took the time to understand our vision and guided us through every decision, including recommending the absolute best vendors in Charlotte.
Her organizational skills are truly unmatched. We’ve never met someone more focused and detailed. She created a thorough timeline, kept everything on track, and ensured everything was executed perfectly. On our wedding day, Lisa and her team were such a calming presence, seamlessly managing the ceremony and reception so we could get ready and enjoy the day without worry. She handled every challenge with grace and efficiency, making sure everything ran smoothly behind the scenes.
What sets Lisa apart is her warmth and personal touch. She cared about our experience and went above and beyond to make us feel supported and important. Thanks to Lisa, our wedding day was flawless, and we couldn't have imagined doing it without her. If you're looking for a dedicated and talented wedding coordinator, we highly recommend Lisa Pleasant!

Our wedding even ended up being canceled due to hurricane Helene, and Emily walked us expertly through a reschedule. We experienced easy communication with rapid responses to our numerous questions. We highly recommend using Lisa Pleasant events.

Review for Lisa, Wedding Planner Extraordinaire
Lisa was truly outstanding from start to finish. From our first meeting, she went above and beyond our expectations, making the wed...
ding planning process smooth, enjoyable, and even fun! Her attention to detail and calm demeanor put us at ease every step of the way.
On the big day, everything went seamlessly. It was everything we could have ever dreamt of—an absolute fairy tale. Lisa’s team was just as incredible, ensuring every detail was handled with precision and care.
One of the standout moments was when Lisa surprised us by tracking down a rare bottle of our favorite liqueur for the reception. It was such a thoughtful, personal touch that meant so much to us.
If you want a wedding planner who is organized, professional, and genuinely cares about making your day perfect, Lisa is the one. She’s a miracle worker, and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out!
Response from Lisa Pleasant Events on 11/18/2024
Cheers to one of my favorite couples of all time! :)) Nicole and Rick, I cannot reiterate ...
how special it was to be a part of your planning time and a part of both of your families for the weekend. You have something more than special and it shows in everything you do, and in everyone around you. Please stay in touch - I can't wait to hear about all of the amazing things that await you! XO

everyone is talking about! She treated my family like her own and made everything seamless and stress less. My mother and father were amazed; Paula would do something important hours before they would ever even think about it. They got to enjoy the big day with no responsibilities other than having fun which was very important to me. Guests saw Paula doing anything and everything she could to make the day perfect, and it was! A huge thanks to Paula for everything she did to make our day amazing - from the ease of working with all of the vendors to having every color stitch needed for the crazy incidents that she resolved - you are the best!

ielle enough. She made the moments leading up to my wedding day so much easier and as seamless as possible. Even the coordinator at my venue said she has so much more peace of mind when she sees the bride has hired Lisa Pleasant and she knows she can be way more hands off because of how much they pay attention to detail! Danielle was on top of every last detail of our big day and the months leading up to it! I've heard so many stories of brides having to sort through so many things on the day of their wedding but I knew I was in such good hands with Danielle and I was able to relax and enjoy my entire day with no worries or trying to figure anything out. She made our special day so effortless and was such a pleasure to work with. Danielle gets sh*t DONE! I cannot imagine my wedding day without her! Highly highly highly recommend Danielle at Lisa Pleasant events!!

If you are getting married, you HAVE to hire Lisa Pleasant Events. From the first introductory call, I knew Lisa and her team were the one for us. She was professional, knowledgeab...
le and warm. After understanding what I was looking for and my personality, she matched me with my planner Alex.
Alex was absolutely incredible as our planner and our coordinator. Ever since the first meeting with Alex a year before our wedding, she totally put our minds at ease and I just knew that we had nothing to worry about. She was organized and laid out our timelines almost immediately, which surprisingly took away almost all my stress. Our wedding was everything we wanted it to be and it was amazing. We cannot say enough how thankful we were for Alex. Obviously the day of can be a crazy time but she handled it like a pro. She did a feminine product run for one of the bridesmaids, she had to deal with a couple rude guests, had to fix my broken bustle multiple times, packed up everything at the end of the night and just knocked everything out of the park. I'm sure there were a million other things that she handled without me even knowing about it because that's how great she is! :) She was so professional, sweet and amazing. We had multiple guests even comment on how amazing Alex was.
Overall, we had a wonderful experience and I would hire them all over again!

Truly can't recommend LPE enough! From our initial inquiry about the different planning options to the execution on our wedding day, everything exceeded our expectations. We didn't...
know where to begin regarding vendors, and the recommendations from the LPE team helped us narrow down our H&MU team, hotel blocks, and more.
We worked with Paula and she helped us remember and decide on all of the small details that we would never have thought of without her. We had to move our ceremony inside at the last minute due to potential rain, and she had everything under control with the venue and made sure our vision still came to life with the decor. She truly helped make my wedding vision and Pinterest boards a reality! Like many other reviewers have said, if anything went wrong on wedding day, I was not made aware because I trusted Paula 100% and she made quick decisions and took care of any last-minute mishaps. If you're on the fence, I recommend at least reaching out to see if LPE has an option that will work best for you!

Before deciding to look for a wedding planner, I had 514 items on my wedding to-do list. I thought I had everything covered, but my mind kept coming back to: “I don’t want to miss ...
anything on the most special day of my life.” I knew that I had a solid foundation of things I THOUGHT I needed to do, but day-of wedding coordination was something I wanted to find so the stress could be more manageable and I could be certain everything would fall into place.
Our introductory phone call was incredibly comprehensive! The tools and resources that Mackenzie shared with me were instrumental in the planning process. Excel docs, planning sheets with timelines… trust me when I say, these are the thoughtful, comprehensive tools that cannot be found online. So many of these fantastic planning suggestions were ones that were NOT ON my list of 514 things.
It also just helps so much to have planners on-site whose sole responsibility is to make sure everyone is in the right place. We did the majority of our pre-planning with Mackenzie, and on the day of, we also had the support of Danielle (two planners with us). Example (picture #2) of some of the little things that are key to your special day - wedding planners can guard the door to ensure the most incredible wedding moments, like first looks, are not interrupted!
If there were any emergencies on my wedding day, I know nothing about them because everything was perfectly handled behind the scenes. I’m so grateful my husband and I got to focus on just each other. You’ll see in these pictures - the second to last one is my husband thanking the planners and all of the vendors in the room for the most incredible day. Last picture - us with Mackenzie. I wanted to make sure to get one with her as I was crying happy tears about how wonderfully the day went.
So - are wedding planners worth the extra expense, even for the “planning” personality? 1000% yes, and I highly recommend Lisa Pleasant Events.
