I cannot express how grateful I am to have found Memories Made with Brittney LaShea! Brittney was instrumental in making the wedding of my dreams come true! Listen—I am a project manager by profession—super organized, type A control freak, very particular—so for me to hand over the most important day of my life to someone else seemed unimaginable. But from my first meeting with Brittney, I felt nothing but utter confidence in her abilities and she definitely proved me right!
I hired Brittney for day-of coordination about 2-3 months out from my wedding which took place March 2025. Brittney is an EXPERT event planner who was able to give me so much guidance even though I was so far into wedding planning. She is also EXTREMELY thorough—“day-of” coordination doesn’t just mean you show up on the day of the wedding and Brittney understands that. She put in the necessary prep work, reviewing vendor contracts, creating a detailed day of timeline, coordinating with vendors, and leading the rehearsal. Working with Brittney in the weeks leading up to the wedding and in particular at the rehearsal, I was able to observe the intentionality with which she builds relationships with people.
On the wedding day, Brittney was a literal SUPERHERO. She comes equipped with walkie talkies and the most thorough emergency kit I’ve ever seen! There were things that went wrong throughout the day (that’s inevitable) but Brittney shielded me from so much of that by making executive decisions and coming up with solutions on the fly, which allowed me to just enjoy my day. Cold sparks tripped the power in the reception hall—Brittney handled it. Wind kept blowing over the arch as they were trying to decorate—Brittney handled it. By the end of the night, I didn’t want to deal with the train on my reception dress—Brittney handled it (the woman literally stitched a bustle for me lol).
I could go on and on forever about how amazing this woman is. My family, the vendors, and even random guests commented on what an incredible job she did. So I’m just going to say anyone would be LUCKY to have Brittney on their team.

Brittney was the wedding coordinator for my best friend's wedding in November, and I was getting married in March. I initially did not think I needed a wedding coordinator for my wedding, but watching Brittney's professionalism, organization, coordination, and level of service showed I NEEDED her for my big day! I asked her (after my friend's wedding was over) if she was available for my date and she said YES!
Brittney assisted with all aspects of planning and was always available for any and everything I needed or had questions on. Her level of communication is outstanding. From planning, coordination with vendors, the exceptional timeline she created, etc., she was there every step of the way.
The day of, I felt so relaxed and was able to enjoy my big day because I knew I had Brittney. We had a few issues with our venue (that I was not even aware of) because Brittney handled absolutely everything. Brittney went way above and beyond her call of duty, and our wedding day was absolutely perfect because of her.
Brittney's level of dedication to her clients is unmatched. She is emotionally involved and becomes part of the family. I am SO thankful for her and our friendship. I know she will be our first call for when my younger siblings get married. I could NOT recommend her more!!!! She is essential for a stress-free wedding day. You will absolutely LOVE her as we do!!

Working with a professional like Brittney tops the polish on your special day for sure. As a catering company 25 years in, we've seen and worked with many NC vendors and she's one of the BEST. She brings together the glue of difficult tasks making connections seamless and easy for the client, which is always the goal. Her drive and sensitivity to her client, guests and vendors is evident. Do not hesitate to book her for your big day.

From start to finish, she has been organized, attentive, and truly dedicated to making our wedding day smooth and stress-free. Her calm and reassuring presence made all the difference, ensuring details were handled with care.
Brittney is not only incredibly professional but also kind, firm when needed, and always prepared which is what makes her an exceptional wedding planner. Her creativity and attention to detail shine through in everything she does, making every moment feel well thought out.
Thanks to Brittney, we were able to enjoy our day fully. I cannot recommend her enough to any couple looking for a planner who will go above and beyond to bring their vision to life.
If you want a stress-free wedding day, hire Brittney! She has been such a joy to work with and has become more than just a planner—she’s been a true support system throughout this entire process.

I had such an amazing time as a photographer working with Brittney! The wedding we worked on together had some wind related complications and last minute pivots, and she was SO on top of handling everything. If I was getting married again, I would trust her with my own wedding🖤

I cannot recommend Brittney enough! From our very first consultation, she instantly put me at ease—we clicked right away, like we had known each other for years. She’s incredibly approachable, responsive, and genuinely cares. I felt comfortable asking her anything throughout the process, and she always had thoughtful, helpful answers.
We hired Brittney in August 2024 to coordinate our wedding on November 23, 2024, and she quickly became an invaluable part of our planning. In the months leading up to our wedding, I faced a serious and unexpected medical emergency that required over a month of recovery. During that time, Brittney truly went above and beyond, stepping in to handle communication with our vendors and ensuring every detail was taken care of seamlessly.
Thanks to Brittney, our wedding day was completely stress-free! She created a detailed timeline for the day, making everything run smoothly and effortlessly. She came prepared with her Bridal Emergency Kit, which had everything we could possibly need (and more).
Another fantastic resource Brittney offers is her rental website, which allowed us to rent practically everything we needed. It was a budget-friendly option that made planning even easier.
Brittney even made sure we were able to eat during our reception and that we fully enjoyed our special day. Her care and expertise made all the difference—we truly had the best day ever thanks to her!

Brittney was a LIFE-SAVER. I quickly realized I needed someone to coordinate all of the details the day of my wedding. She immediately stepped in and relieved my stress. She created a wedding day timeline for the vendors, as well as, myself. She arrived at the venue site (hours before I was scheduled to arrive) and took care of everything, from making sure everyone arrived on time, to making sure everything was set up as I'd imagined. Once I arrived she kept everyone on track making sure everything was executed on time and to perfection.
Having her there to execute everything as I'd imagined and to take the stress off of myself on my wedding day was amazing and a gamechanger. I was able to be in the moment and have someone else take care of the details on the back-end.
She made sure I didn't forget anything and was always there to bounce ideas off of. You cannot go wrong with Brittney!!

Brittany stuck with us through it ALL! She was very helpful, affordable and seems to truly love what she does. She is very easy going and always there to help calm my nerves. My wedding almost did not happen due the disaster of Hurricane Helene. She was ready to look in her own community so that I may have a nice place to still have my event had it been canceled. Thankfully through sheer luck and determination my wedding was able to happen and it was beautiful!

I was granted a dream wish wedding from Wish Upon a Wedding. Brittney graciously donated her time and talents to help make our day special. She was in charge of the decorating. When I arrived that morning before she got there, I was a nervous wreck. Nothing had been set up yet. Memories Made By Brittney Lashea showed up and showed out! She totally transformed that place. When I entered the room, it was so beautiful. It truly took my breath away. It brings tears to my eyes knowing that there are people who are so selfless and giving that would be so willing to go above and beyond for me. I'm so thankful. So, if you are on the fence, rest assured that you have found the right person. I highly recommend Memories Made by Brittney Lashea for your wedding.

Brittney was instrumental in the flow of communication throughout the Wish Upon a Wedding event we worked on together. To pull off a successful event of this magnitude, we needed all vendors on the same page collaborating in unison, many thanks to Brittney and her sought after event planning skillset!

Brittney was incredibly organized while allowing time for the unplanned, meaningful moments. Her interactions with the bride, groom and family were handled with care and professionalism. Her time management skills made my job as a videographer stress free and gave me free time to capture detail shots.

We had the pleasure of working with Brittney for the first time this past weekend at a wedding we were catering. We were blown away by her professionalism, warmth and creativity. Not only did Brittney come to the wedding couple's rescue just a few short weeks before the ceremony, she pulled off a beautiful and flawless event with smiles and enthusiasm! We look forward to working with Brittney in the future and seeing her visions and designs come to life! Highly recommend Brittney to make your memories SHINE!

Recently, I attended my son’s wedding, which was planned and executed to perfection by Memories Made. I grew up old-school before wedding planning became a thing. I never realized how much work goes into executing all the elaborate moving pieces of modern nuptials.
Holy Smokes! Brittney performed like a seasoned conductor, standing before and guiding a 100-piece orchestra and an auditorium filled with a thousand guests. She orchestrated everything from seating, placement, rehearsal, and 'cow-herding' some wandering participants with sternness wrapped in kindness. She is amazing. Her vendors provided exquisite services, all managed and guided by her impeccable taste.
I can tell you that if you want perfect EVERYTHING for your wedding, Brittney Lashea Dolan is your only choice.
Bravo, Brittney, from a grateful parent of my son and my new daughter-in-law.

I loved working with Brittney and her team! I'm a wedding photog and film maker with over 100 weddings in my portfolio and she stood out to me as an incredible professional. I highly recommend her! She kindly kept the wedding party and vendors on time and took great care of us all night, offering the vendors waters and ensuring we knew exactly what as coming next. I'd love to work with her again!

When you think about how stressful wedding planning can be, it can consume you and become over whelming. Brittney was and angel sent to me. She took care of making sure not only did everything go well with my wedding, but that I was ok during one of the most stressful but joyous times of my life. I truly don't think I could have done this with anyone else. Not only is she professional but she makes you feel like you good about yourself. She was so supportive, and I could really tell that she was working just as hard on her end to make sure our day was everything, we wanted it to be. We are so grateful for her and hope you take our advice and do yourself a favor and book her NOW because I promise you won't regret it!

I attended an event that Brittney was in charge of and I was blown away. She is truly such a humble, professional, and personable person. She was so concerned about making sure my niece and her new husband and all the guest were taken care of. Everyone was talking about how beautiful everything was and how Brittney helped her pull off a great wedding while staying on budget. Brittney is literally all my niece raved about during the wedding planning process and even after. I have already contacted her to hire her for an event I’m hosting in a few months. She is definitely someone my family will hire to help plan events for years to come.
