We couldn't be more grateful for the incredible experience we had working with Krystal as our wedding planner. From the very beginning, she was patient, attentive, and truly committed to ensuring that our special day was exactly what we envisioned. As an event planner myself, I had high expectations, and Krystal exceeded every one of them.
Her kindness and thoughtfulness throughout the planning process made everything so much easier. She was always available to listen to our ideas and concerns, offering her expert advice while respecting our wishes. Krystal worked tirelessly to bring our vision to life, and the end result was a wedding day that was beyond perfect.
We couldn't have made our day so special without her, and we highly recommend Krystal to anyone looking for a planner who is not only professional but also genuinely cares about making your day as wonderful as you've always imagined.
I would tell anyone getting married in Savannah, GA to use Tara Skinner events. The connections they have throughout the low country is unparalleled.
We specifically worked with Evan Cowart, and I cannot say enough good things about her. Every time we told a vendor that our wedding planner was Evan, we were met with "We love her, she is the absolute best!" And boy were they right!
Evan was available to us whenever we had a question about the wedding and she was quick to answer my emails, phone calls, and texts (which increased in volume the closer we got to the wedding). She came with my mom and I to our florist appointments and appointments with our calligrapher. She reached out to all of our vendors to organize the timeline and it took so much pressure off of me knowing that she had it covered.
And did I mention the timeline?!? It was the timeline of my dreams. No detail was left unplanned, and she handled sending it to all of our vendors and making sure they knew the plan ahead of time. As a Type A person, it helped me stay calm on the day of the wedding knowing that there was a specific and distinct plan in place and that Evan was working with everyone to keep the plan moving along.
She was also my savior on the day of the wedding. I can't count how many times some small detail came up (guests arriving late to the ceremony, my reception shoes going missing, etc.) and she had either already handled it or was right there to take care of it.
Tara Skinner Events and Evan specifically were a dream to work with from the moment we made contact all the way through the wedding night. If you are getting married in Savannah, I could not recommend anyone more.
Obsessed, obsessed, obsessed. I could not adequately put into words how much we absolutely loved working with our planner Krystal who helped create the most perfect day for our wedding. I am still crying that it's all over as her expertise and thoughtfulness made it one of the best day of our lives.
From the minute we met her, we instantly knew that she was not only going to be a blessing from above but now consider her a part of extended family! She understood the vision we had, was realistic with budgets and helped us navigate the challenges with rentals given we did a full outdoor wedding under a tent. Everyone vendor Krystal suggested was beyond top notch and truly could not have done this day without her. She was readily available, extremely communicative and understood exactly the type of party vibe we were looking for. I couldn't have dreamed of a better planner to work with and we absolutely ADORE her and would recommend her and the entire Tara Skinner team - 10/10 every time. They were literally worth their weight in gold!!!
Tara Skinner Weddings and Events, and specifically Amy, were amazing to work with. The attention to details and coordination with vendors made the whole process enjoyable. The wedding day went off perfectly, and I give them 5 stars plus!
Amy and her team helped us with our son and daughter-in-law’s rehearsal dinner in the garden of the Harper Fowlkes House. The setting was perfect - exactly as the bride and I envisioned - and every detail considered. It was a night all our family will always remember and set the stage for the magic wedding that followed the next day. Would highly recommend Amy and her team for any event!!
Working with Tara was hands down the best decision we could have ever made for our wedding weekend. She is SO knowledgeable, organized and professional - there was never a question she couldn’t answer or a problem she couldn’t solve. She made sure everything about our wedding was absolutely flawless - not only logistically but also aesthetically. Another thing I really appreciated about Tara’s approach is that she knew the best vendors to carry out my style and vision. I truly feel that she assembled our dream team, and everyone involved was AMAZING. We were floored by the talent, creativity and thoroughness we saw. Not only is Tara an expert in her field, she is also immeasurably kind, patient, supportive and FUNNY! My family adores her, and we still (6 months later) talk about how much we miss “Saint Tara” in our lives on a regular basis. The last thing I’ll mention, which anyone can clearly see from the her social media, is that Tara has IMPECCABLE taste. I trusted her judgement on every last detail and had a ton of fun picking out linens, rental furniture, etc. with her and getting her hot take on pretty much everything. She is the best of the best, and we are so grateful for the 14 months she spent putting together the wedding of our dreams.
Our day was perfectly us :) We worked with Amy for about 6 months prior to our wedding and could not have had a better experience. I will say that we're not the easiest couple to work with and come with a lot of nontraditional ideas and decision dilemmas, but Amy was so patient, kind and knew exactly how to keep us moving forward and checking off the list! Honestly, she made the entire process so easy, allowing us to focus on things that mattered to us most. We had lots of laughs, stressful moments of potential rain, coaching and fun calls together. She really delivered our dream day. Also, I am leaving this process completely amazed at all of the things a wedding planner does ...that go above and beyond what I would have ever assumed a wedding planner does. Thanks for everything, Amy! - Happily married, Chris and Jamie
I am truly at a loss for words for how amazing it was working with Krystal and Tara Skinner Events. I started working with Krystal about 6 weeks prior to our wedding. I thought I was in a good spot and had all of my planning and vendors ready to go but I cannot believe how much Krystal helped facilitate our wedding vision those last several weeks. There were so many little details we didn’t think of and Krystal made it happen- it made our wedding that much more amazing. Krystal was EXTREMELY responsive and supportive throughout the entire process. It took so much stress off our plate. Krystal took all the responsibility and was the main contact person communicating all the final decisions to our vendors. The final weeks up to our wedding, she made sure everything was in place and no stone was left unturned. She created our floor plan, transportation plan and made an AMAZING timeline for our entire wedding weekend, she never missed a detail!
Krystal and her assistant Summer’s help on our wedding day was beyond exceptional, seeing our vision and venue come together exceeded my vision and expectations times a million. I don’t think I ever saw either of them take a break, they were always making sure everything was running smoothly, they made sure my husband and I were fed and ALWAYS had a drink in our hand. Throughout the wedding weekend we had guests coming up to us saying how amazing they were.
The thing that I will always remember about Krystal is how much she genuinely cared about our wedding, she always had a smile on her face and in the end she seemed more like a friend of ours, I will be forever grateful to Krystal, Summer, and Tara Skinner Events. We had the MOST amazing and fun time at our wedding and our guests are saying the same thing, we owe a lot of that to Krystal!! I wish we could do it again!
I truly can't say enough about Tara at Tara Skinner Weddings & Events-- she is a wedding planning angel! Not only did she put together a wedding beyond anything I had ever imagined, but she did it so smoothly --- it is very apparent the first time that you meet her that this is not her first rodeo. Anytime my mom or I had any kind of concern / question (no matter how small), she would immediately have an answer and would put our minds at ease. The entire process was so easy and organized thanks to her. All of the vendors that she recommended were phenomenal. I could go on and on! You will not regret working with anyone on her team. Seriously amazing!
Tara Skinner Events is TOP NOTCH. What you see on their instagram is what you get (which is to say, a dream wedding!). We worked with Megan White from Tara's team and she was wonderful from start to finish. It takes a lot of trust when you are planning a wedding in Savannah while living in New York and Megan and the team always made us feel taken care of. She was always available for every call and concern no matter how difficult or last minute. I almost couldn't believe it when I walked into our tent and saw what Megan and the Tara Skinner team had done. It was literally everything that I wanted and our guests that attended our wedding are still raving about it. I don't know how Megan does it with three small kids at home but she is, literally, Wonder Woman. I can't say enough about this company for helping me realize the wedding of my dreams. I'm still on Cloud 9!!! I will also add that the team is budget conscious and very good at talking nervous mothers and brides off a ledge. It's hard to know how everything will turn out when you place your vision in the hands of someone on the opposite end of the country and when you can't always see things in person, but it was truly incredible how Megan and Tara Skinner Events realized my vision. Impeccable.
Tara is AMAZING, my earth Angel and an absolute MAGICIAN! She made the wedding planning process a breeze and took all of my random, unorganized ideas and brought them to life in the most elegant and PERFECT way. Tara’s attention to detail, organization and sensitivity made the wedding planning process so enjoyable and fun. I can’t say enough how much I love the entire TSWE team- hire them immediately!!!
This day would not have been enjoyable at all as the MOB without the constant attention to detail that Hanna p took care of. The pre planning and experience on what to do and what not to do was priceless. This service made a happy bride, happy MOB and a joyful, blessed Day! Grateful!
Tara Skinner deserves 10 stars, not 5! If you are looking for a wedding planner, look no further. Tara helped transform my wedding into the most magical, tasteful, fun, spectacular evening. From the planning, coordination, set up and delivery, everything was perfect. Tara made this skeptical bride into a true believer that your wedding is truly the best day ever. I am so beyond grateful for Tara's hard work and talent that went into making this day extraordinarily special. Mark & I are forever thankful.
Where do I even begin for my experience with Tara Skinner Weddings & Events. What a true pleasure and dream. To start, there is not a day that goes by where I don't think back to the most magical, perfect day of our lives. Hannah was there for every step of the way - to answer every question, talk with every vendor and guide the whole process so beautifully. She so eagerly and professionally gave her recommendations and opinions. We could not have been happier with how our day turned out. You know when you see exactly what you want your big day to look like in your head and dreams but have no idea how to get it there? Tara Skinner will get you there and more. We will forever look back and be grateful for Tara Skinner Weddings & Events and they will forever be who we recommend to any brides! A true pleasure!
It was an absolute pleasure working with Krystal for our wedding in May of 2021! She was remarkably organized, incredibly prompt in responding to my questions, and extremely thorough when working through the details with me. She was the best asset to my wedding vendor team and the best decision I made when starting the wedding planning process. Not only would I not have been able to plan my wedding as effectively without her feedback, but I would not have been able to fully execute the events of the wedding day itself without her. I highly recommend using Krystal and Tara Skinner Events for any of your event planning needs!!
I was blown away on our wedding day! Megan made my dream wedding a reality and I couldn't have been happier with how everything turned out. It was truly a magical day and I am so happy I chose to have full wedding and rehearsal services. It took the pressure off of me and my mom and we were able to enjoy the celebration! I highly recommend working with Tara and her team (we love you, Megan!) for your upcoming wedding!
As the Mother of the Bride my daughter and my son in law are dear to me. I wanted something special as they are truly in love and such a heartfelt couple. As we did not live in Savannah being long distance was a concern. I want to say what a fabulous experience we had and Megan was exceptional. The wedding exceeded my expectations and was more wonderful than I had even hoped. Tara and her team helped us navigate all of it with ease and confidence. When the wedding day came we had no reservations or concerns and the day was beautiful. The vendors were also exceptional. My memories are all positive and I would not change a thing. Thanks Tara and Megan for making dreams come true! Megan you are like one of our family. Thank you so much !
Working with Tara Skinner Wedding and Events was the best decision I made for my wedding. Krystal Zinn was a DREAM to work with. She was always so responsive and so kind and just a pleasure to interact with during the whole process. We had to push our original 2020 wedding date to September 2021 due to Covid and Krystal was invaluable through all of this. She held my hand through the disappointment and anxiety of things feeling like they were falling apart and took the stress out of having to get everything moved around for the new date. She thought of every detail that needed to be taken care of and handled any changes I made along with the way with such professionalism. Hannah Perry coordinated the day of and exuded an aura of calm that let me know that everything was taken care of and helped ease any day of anxieties for me and my family. Hiring this company made my big day such a pleasure!
There is not enough words that could sum up our experience with Evan & Tara Skinner Events. We enjoyed working with Evan SO much. Unfortunately, we had to postpone our wedding due to covid and I was so nervous about being able to still have the wedding of my dreams. We were one of the first weddings at the beginning of covid to have to postpone, so we already had EVERYTHING booked. Evan did not bat an eye! She made the process so easy, was so reassuring and made me feel so good about every decision. She even ended up being able to reschedule every vendor that I had originally wanted. I honestly cannot imagine going through this process without her. She was extremely professional, had great relationships with the Savannah vendors and gave me great direction and advice. She worked with me, my mom and mother in law during the process and made every opinion feel heard and validated.
On our wedding day, right before the wedding party was going to walk down the aisle, RAIN came out of nowhere. What could have turned into chaos, at an outdoor wedding with guests scrambling for cover, was handled SO gracefully. I truly don’t know how she did it (probably magic) but Evan somehow re-arranged our entire tented reception area into a new alter and aisle for our ceremony. It was as perfect as it could be and I felt so lucky to be in Evans hands during that situation. I would recommend working with her to ANY new bride!! I truly feel so grateful and blessed to have made the decision to work with her.
Megan was amazing! Truly took care of every detail and was so amazing day of the wedding! Absolutely loved working with and would recommend them to anyone!
When we started with Hannah from Tara Skinner we gave her some ideas, a color scheme and a budget - and then a few weeks later changed every one of those! When we changed to a totally different scheme was when I started to see the value that Hannah would bring to the process. From her knowledge of linens to her ideas on signage to the nudging she gave us on having a “full” look on our tables at the reception (which she was so right about) to putting everything from the reception back in our car Saturday night- I can’t imagine our night coming off as it did without her input and help all along the way.
The 2 pieces of the wedding puzzle that were most important to us were the florals and an awesome band. The band was relatively easy, but we had to work through a couple of florists to find our way to Marble & Pine. We were getting down to a point in the timeline where we really had to book a florist and Hannah found this group who was a great fit for us. I just have to tell you they did an AMAZING job - we are continuing get comments about how beautiful all the flowers were. When the doors to the ballroom were opened it took my breath away. I teared up as I looked at the chandeliers, the dinner tables, the cake table - it was just more than I could have ever imagined.
Hannah was a rock star all weekend - she was available when needed, checked in with us and helped with anything that came up. The wedding day went so smoothly it was really like a dream. Our only crisis was when Frannie accidentally ripped her bolero when she went to hug Robbie at their first look. I texted Hannah, and she met us in the church with needle and thread, literally stitching Frannie into the bolero as Amy steamed her dress just minutes before Frannie was to walk down the aisle. The ceremony was beautiful and Hannah was right there to make sure everyone was in place and doing what they should be doing.
Hannah handled everything at the reception like such a pro! The whole night ran on schedule and Hannah was always present to make sure we were well taken care of. Everything was wonderful thanks to the professionalism and dedication of the best wedding planner from Tara Skinner!
We had an incredible experience working with Tara Skinner Weddings & Events. Our wedding planner, Hannah Perry, was so wonderful throughout the planning process, and we couldn't recommend her highly enough. Planning our wedding from afar, Hannah made everything easy for us by helping to narrow down all the options and introduce us to and coordinate with vendors. We unfortunately had to cancel our original wedding plans in Savannah due to COVID-19, and Hannah was absolutely instrumental in helping us through the cancellation process so that it was as painless as possible - she was so understanding and supportive throughout, and we are forever grateful. If you're in need of a wedding planner in Savannah, look no further than Tara Skinner and especially, Hannah!
Brides, if you’re looking for a wedding planner you can completely rely on to help you every step of the way - Krystal Cassidy is absolutely WONDERFUL!!! We planned a destination wedding for over a year together and she was phenomenal!!! Absolutely amazing. She always responded day-of, never forgot the million ideas I threw her way and was always kind, professional, and VERY organized! She took so much stress and tasks off my plate, I truly can’t say enough positive things about her. I’m beyond thankful for her!!! On the night of our outdoor wedding, we had huge rainstorm (the tent, dance floor and catering tent flooded) and she handled all of the obstacles with grace and was extremely calming when we spoke about plans b and c! I know choosing someone to handle the most exciting day of your life can be a tough decision but please know you will be in great hands with Krystal!!!
Tara Skinner Weddings hands down made our dream wedding a reality! I could not have done this without the gift that is Crystal Brooks, our planner. Not only did Crystal work with us to create the destination wedding of our dreams while we lived out of state, but she was the sole reason we were able to reschedule with ALL but two of our original vendors when we had to postpone in March. Crystal recommended world-class vendors, and was always very responsive to emails/calls. I can't thank Crystal enough and I honestly don't think I could have done this without her. Crystal truly made the planning process an incredible and enjoyable experience, even through the stress of re-planning through a pandemic. Crystal thought of EVERYTHING, when it came to safety precautions we needed due to Covid. On the day of, Crystal took care of absolutely everything, and was always there when she was needed, which meant a completely stress-free bride, mother of the bride, and bridal party. I can't recommend Tara Skinner Weddings enough if you are planning a wedding. Thank you, Crystal and Tara Skinner Weddings!!
It's hard to put into words how thankful I am for Tara Skinner. She made the entire planning process enjoyable, fun and EASY! We worked with Tara for almost two years and in that time, I experienced a major life event, COVID forced us to postpone 6 months, and a hurricane threatened our *new* big day... it was an absolute rollercoaster to say the least. Tara kept us calm, helped us make some really tough decisions, and was with us every step of the way. Tara is absolutely amazing at what she does. Our wedding day was an absolute fairytale, everything went PERFECT and that is truly because of Tara. She is top notch and the best decision we made when it came to our big day. Tara became much more than a planner, she became a friend. We love you Tara and thank you for everything!!!
I cannot adequately express my gratitude to Tara and her team!! My daughter's father passed away just weeks after meeting with Tara and selecting her venue, photographer, and florist. Tara was the first person to reach out to my daughter. Then, Covid postponed the wedding from April 4th to September 19th. If that wasn't enough, a Hurricane was threatening us. But, because of Tara, my daughter never worried about a thing. She brought her vision to reality. She calmed the storm. She was her guiding angel. For that, I will be forever grateful. I don't think she even realizes how awesome she is!!!
If you need a wedding planner, I promise you that Tara will not disappoint you.
Our wedding day felt like a dream come true all thanks to Tara Skinner Wedding & Events. Krystal from Tara Skinner Weddings was truly amazing to work with!!! Always so sweet, calm and professional. Krystal went above and beyond to make the wedding planning process stress free. Even after having a postpone the wedding from May to September Krystal never missed a beat. Can't say enough great things about the team and highly reccomend. Brides you are in the best hands!!
Tara Skinner Wedding & Events far exceeded our expectations to make our daughter and son in law's wedding absolutely PERFECT! Tara and her team's attention to detail was impeccable!! Tara is professional, budget conscious, timely, organized and always makes herself available when needed!! I can't imagine doing a wedding without her and we can't wait for the next one!!
Tara is absolutely amazing! She helped make my vision for my wedding come to life and far exceeded my expectations. Every step of the way she was ready and available to speak with me, always super responsive. As a 2020 bride, I can honestly say my wedding was not a stressful weekend because of Tara. I did not have to worry about anything and remained hands-off the entire weekend while she worked her magic. The biggest testament to that is my bridal party and guests telling me how calm and peaceful I looked on my wedding day. Tara took charge dealing with last minute changes even up until the day of the wedding. She alleviated all my covid concerns and even when unexpected rain showed up, she was there to keep the show going. Then to the decor! She helped execute every detail perfect fully with our florist and rental company. It was straight out of a fairytale. The best part was my husband and I could enjoy ourselves the entire reception because she took care of everything.
Tara Skinner Weddings & Events put together the absolute perfect wedding for us! The team has the creativity, professionalism, and attention to detail that will make your dream wedding even better than you could imagine!
Tara Skinner is the best in the biz. My fiance and I were planning to get married in Savannah, Ga and she was recommended by literally every wedding professional down there. My fiance is Hindu and I am christian and she helped plan an absolutely perfect wedding for us at the Westin Savannah which incorporated both of our cultures and was just a dream to work with. She was responsive, supportive, never thought my questions were stupid, and always made me feel like the most important person in the planning process (#bridegoals). Unfortunately with anxiety around Covid, we had to move our wedding back to North Carolina where our families are from. Tara could not have been nicer with the transition. We were very sad when she was unavailable for our new date, but we are lucky to get to keep many of her designs and ideas going forward into our new planning process/date. She is smart, logical, kind, and absolutely knows what she is doing. Her creativity in combination specifically with Amy Harvey (florist) is mind blowing, although I am certain she works magic with every florist and decorator in Savannah. If you are having a multicultural wedding, Tara will not only handle it, but go above and beyond. We are so appreciative to have gotten to work with her.
Words cannot describe how thankful we are for Tara Skinner. She was wonderful to work with and gave our daughter and son-in-law their absolute dream wedding! No detail was left unattended and every single aspect was gorgeous! We’ve had three girls get married so my husband and I know how valuable an experienced wedding planner is. You will not find anyone better than Tara!
My husband and I both agree that our wedding day was one of the best days of our lives and we have TSWE to thank for that! I cannot rave about them enough. They had an answer and solution for every question we could think of and also suggestions for things that never crossed our minds. When I began to worry about the weather plan, the timing of vendor set up, etc. Hannah calmed my nerves and I knew I could trust her completely to handle it all so that we could truly be carefree and enjoy our special day. We absolutely could not have done any of it without her guidance and expertise! We LOVE the entire team and counted each of them as a blessing on our happiest day!! THANK YOU!!!!!
We are so thankful we found Hannah and Tara Skinner Events to help with our big day! For a fact our day wouldn’t have been as beautiful and seamless without all of Hannah’s guidance, advice and wealth of knowledge! Planning our wedding in Savannah from Seattle we knew we were taking on a big task-but as soon as we had our first phone conversation I knew we would be in great hands. Hannah was our voice, ears and eyes when we couldn’t be there physically. She helped me stay calm and organize when I would get lost in the weeds of all the wedding details. Days leading up to the wedding, including day of, several guest and family members commented on how calm the groom and I were-because we had full faith and trust that Hannah and her team had it! Our wedding day was more than we could have ever imagine, thanks to Hannah and TSE!
The absolute Best! As a Bride from Atlanta planning a wedding in Savannah - there is no way it could have happened without Crystal and Tara Skinner Wedding & Events! We signed on for the "Month of" package as my Mother had been in the hospitality industry all her life and we figured we could handle everything until then. Crystal still jumped into action sending us documents with vendor recommendations and information for Savannah Weddings. We still talked to her daily and she was always available to help answer questions or concerns! She always provided full honesty in answering my questions which I so appreciated. You could tell how much she cared about our Wedding. I never once felt like this was just another wedding to her. Unfortunately 6 months before the Wedding my Mother was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. With everything approaching we started treatment quickly which meant I lost my right hand. Crystal again jumped right into action. She was there, texting me through my tears reassuring me that everything was going to be perfect. She attended our Tasting (on a Sunday) because my Mom's taste buds weren't the same through Chemo. Crystal was there for me in more ways than any Wedding Planner is paid to be. From start to finish she was on top of everything, organized and asking questions that I never would have thought about. It was Genuine. On the Big day she was there from the very early morning all the way to being the absolute last to leave. My Wedding Party and Family were checked in on all through out the day, there was never a time I couldn't find Crystal or didn't have her right there. She's by your side through out it all. But most importantly - Crystal and TSWE allowed me to enjoy the 5 days of Friends and Family and they allowed me to have my Mom by my side the whole day as everything else was attended to. After talking with my Mom, our only regret was that we didn't hire them from the very beginning. They truly will take away the stress of this process for you. I would absolutely recommend this company again and again. Our Wedding crew became our Family and we can't imagine still not seeing them on our trips back to Savannah. Crystal, I can't thank you and TSWE enough for everything you did for us through out our Wedding Journey. You are the sweetest soul and you all truly made our Dreams come to life!
Crystal and the team at Tara Skinner Events were just fabulous! We were planning our wedding from a distance and it helped to have Crystal there when we need some locals advice. She was there for some great suggestions along with the biggest help in being the day of coordinator. Having her there to make all the decisions so I didn’t have to was a huge relief ! It did rain on our wedding day and Crystal was there to make it the best it could be by helping our guests from their cars to the ceremony and from ceremony to reception with umbrellas! I highly recommend hiring this company for your planning needs.
Thanks Crystal!
We had the pleasure of working with Tara Skinner for our wedding in March. Tara was wonderful to work with for a few reasons: she has a wide net of contacts in Savannah, a vast knowledge of the wedding industry in Savannah, and wonderful taste!
Tara was our go-to for any and all questions throughout the wedding process. She is not only talented at piecing together gorgeous weddings, but at staying level-headed when her clients experience stress or conflict during planning. I truly appreciated Tara's calm energy throughout our planning.
In addition, Tara was incredible on our actual wedding day. She made sure every detail happened at the exactly right moment while somehow staying in the background.
Thank you Tara and team!
We really appreciated Tara's ability to balance all of the requests, which were at times fairly conflicting, from the various interested parties at our wedding. As the groom I wish I could say more but from the times I was involved with Tara she was very warm and easy to work with. On the day of the wedding she made sure that we stayed on time without being pushy but not being too soft in her approach that we could have risked being late to certain moments. Great experience!
Crystal with TSWE goes above and beyond and was truly amazing. As an out of town bride, she made planning a destination wedding a breeze. She was there every step of the way. Meeting us on weekends for planning appointments when we were in town to weekly and often daily emails. She gave us her complete dedication. She also LITERALLY saved our plated dinner, when the venue required caterer ordered the incorrect food counts. Crystal showed up with shrimp to feed our guests. If nothing else speaks to the superb quality of service that Crystal provides, actually bringing the food the feed our guest should! She goes above and beyond to make sure that your wedding goes as smoothly as planned without any hiccups. Also Crystal is an absolute joy to work with. We immediately hit it off and she became a dear friend in the process. I cannot say enough wonderful words about Crystal except, BOOK HER!!!
Krystal from Tara Skinner Weddings & Events handled our Savannah elopement flawlessly! She was in constant contact with us about details prior to and the day of was on top of everything! I was able to enjoy my day knowing she had it all. HIGHLY recommend!!
Tara Skinner Weddings and Events were a total lifesaver for us. Having an out of town wedding to put together and host is very difficult but our planner Crystal was the bomb! She literally thought of and handled everything. There are so many details that you just don't think of and sources that you need but don't have because you are not from Savannah - Crystal handled all of it without a flaw! She suggested our florist who was fabulous (Harvey Designs), the hair and makeup gals, the rental company, the technology and lighting guys.....we were blessed to have her! Highly recommend this company to anyone getting married in Savannah, even if you think you don't need a planner they are so flexible with the different services they provide!!
My daughter recently had her wedding in Savannah, GA. We used Amy Macatee from Tara Skinner Wedding & Events as our wedding planner. She was amazing! Being from out of town, she guided us to the perfect local vendors.She patiently worked with us on all of the details and helped us to create the dream wedding my daughter wanted. The ceremony was at Forsyth Park and the reception was at the Westin Savannah Harbor. We used Old Town Trolley Tours to transport our guests back and forth from the Westin to Forsyth Park for the ceremony and reception, and the happy couple arrived by boat to the Westin. Amy arranged all of the logistics and on the day of the wedding, I didn't have to worry about anything. Everything went off without a hitch. Amy and her assistant,Evan Cowart, took care of everything on the day of the wedding, and we were able to just celebrate and enjoy the joyous beautiful wedding. I highly recommend Tara Skinner and Amy Macatee!
Wow! Thank you for making Saturday's wedding an enjoyable experience for our Lowcountry Pianist & Company team!
The organization you and your team provided was exceptional and made our job as a vendor so much easier. Looking forward to working together again in the future!
We chose PPP because of the reviews and we’re so glad we did! Crystal was AMAZING from day one and I never had to worry once if things got missed. She was able to create exactly what I envisioned in my head and we had the most BEAUTIFUL wedding!
We used Hannah with PPP as our day of wedding coordinator for our wedding ceremony and she was AMAZING! She worked directly with our florist and event rental company to ensure that everything was as I envisioned. Her organizational skills and friendly personality made her a joy to work with. I would HIGHLY recommend this company to any bride!!
Where would I be without Hannah from Posh Petals & Pearls?!? I was always told that the day of your wedding has a tendency to invite the out of the ordinary and the unplanned, and ours did not disappoint! We had weather issues, clothing mishaps, and family drama. You would never have known it because of the incredible ways that Hannah and PPP handled everything! I thought about doing the planning and preparations myself and having my bridesmaids help me the day of but I am so happy I went with PPP!!!
Hiring PPP was the best decision I ever made outside of saying yes to my fiance! Hannah was SO helpful and so encouraging the entire process. Her attention to detail was unparalleled and she helped save me from several mishaps during planning. She was incredibly sweet and truly went above and beyond for my fiance and I!! Thank you Hannah and PPP!!!
Posh Petals and Pearls exceeded all of our expectations for a wedding planner. My planner made the day so memorable and I could not be happier with the way things turned out! All of my guests kept saying to me all night that ours was the best wedding they had been to. I know that this was all because of the amazing team we had from Posh Petals and Pearls!
PPP is amazing! We worked with Crystal in a "month of" package but she helped us with so much more! My wedding day ran perfectly smoothly and was not at all stressful. Everything looked perfect and it was exactly what I had imagined. She was so helpful throughout the entire planning process and provided so many helpful checklists and timelines. I cannot imagine how we would have done it without her! We would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a planner in the Charleston area.
Hiring Posh Petals and Pearls for my daughter's destination wedding in Savannah was the best investment I made. We selected the "Month Of" package, but that includes so much more. We appreciated the vendor lists and the discounts at certain vendors. Marvee was available to answer questions for the months before the wedding. She gave me the confirmation I needed that I was on the right track with various choices. Crystal took over during the last month. I cannot say enough about her. In addition to being uber organized and on top of every single detail, she was a constant calming influence when things went off track temporarily at our venue. She enabled me to be a guest at my daughter's wedding and enjoy every minute without worrying about anything. If you are on the fence about incurring this expense, take the plunge. You absolutely will not regret it.
My wedding was so amazing because of Crystal and the Posh Petals and Pearls team!! I cannot thank y'all enough!!! I mean, it was such an important day for us and we really did not have to worry about anything. Even with a flaky vendor and a downpour on what was supposed to be an outdoor wedding ceremony. They really just handled everything and I had the best day ever! :) I am so happy that Tara introduced me to Crystal and that I spent my wedding weekend with such a great team!
I would HIGHLY recommend Posh, Petals, and Pearls to any bride. We had Marvee as our month of planner and I can't begin to say how THANKFUL we were to have her. From the beginning, she was always responsive, helpful and calming. We had a Persian/Christian wedding which required the set up of a large ceremonial spread with many intricate and delicate items on it and she handled setting it up (and breaking it down) perfectly. She even came to my family home to see the spread and take pictures. The week and the day of the wedding tend to be the most hectic but she handled everything that came my way perfectly, including last minute changes as my ceremony was to be outside and had to be moved inside. Not only are my husband and I thankful and raved about her but my family and many guests also spoke highly of her and how on top of everything she was as well as sweet and professional. She was the best decision I made in wedding planning and we truly believe our day would not have been as special without her there. THANK YOU!!
When we were shopping for wedding planners, PPP came highly recommended. Our wedding was last week and we are satisfied with the service and professionalism we received.
Tara has an expert knowledge of the business and the Savannah market. I was particularly impressed with her ability to determine which venues and vendors would be right for our style, budget and general sensibilities.
My advice: Spend the money on PPP for your Savannah wedding to ensure that you will be in good hands on your wedding day.
We certainly were.....
Tara and her team did such an amazing job for our Savannah destination wedding. She made the planning process from NYC so much easier. I love how supportive and generous she is. Couldn't recommend them highly enough!
Marvee made our wedding planning a breeze and she made our wedding day AMAZING!! We literally could not have done any of this without her and her expertise. She was on top of everything and made sure to keep us in line the whole time. She may be super sweet and tiny, but when it came to the day of the wedding she was not playing around - she had EVERYONE in line and kept our whole wedding party straight! We couldn't be more thankful for her and everything she did. It was the BEST DAY EVER!
Posh, Petals and Pearls made our day perfect! They were so easy to work with and made the day everything we hoped for!!
Our wedding was FLAWLESS thanks to Taylor and her team! I'm a Savannah native but currently live in DC, and initially thought I didn't need a planner. However, as you brides will learn, the last month is crazy and 3 weeks before the wedding I panicked and decided we needed a 'day of' planner. I had a friend who highly recommended PPP, and we went with the 'month of' option. Honestly, I knew within minutes of talking to the ladies at PPP that I was in excellent hands, but I could not have imagined or anticipated just how amazing they would be. My only regret is not hiring PPP at the beginning of this process! Taylor was AMAZING-- so patient, knowledgeable, organized and an absolute pleasure to work with. She went above and beyond in every way imaginable. And on the wedding day, from beginning to the end, Taylor (with Marvee and Crystal, also fantastic!) executed all aspects of the day to perfection, so I was able to just relax and party! I even had wedding guests tell me how lovely Taylor was!
Trust me when I say that the ladies at PPP are extraordinary. You may find a less expensive option, but I promise you PPP is worth every penny. I walked away knowing Taylor made my wedding and overall experience as a bride better than I could have imagined. Coming from someone who has been a bridesmaid in many weddings, these ladies are THE BEST in town and you won't regret your decision to work with them. A thousand thanks, y'all!!!
I just simply could not have done this without PP&P....got more than I needed and worth every penny. Our wedding was not just beautiful, it was actually perfect - Crystal worked so hard to help me make decisions, and when she couldn't be around, even Ashley stepped in. So grateful for PP&P!
We truly are so grateful for Crystal at PPP. The week before our wedding, we learned that Hurricane Irma was headed straight towards Savannah/Tybee Island which is where we were getting married. Crystal supported me through the entire process, from finding new vendors and a new venue a couple of days before our wedding (that we ultimately didnt need to use which is great), emotionally supporting me and my family throughout the process, and helping our day go absolutely perfect. I can't say enough positive things about Crystal and PPP. I give them my highest recommendation! They are the absolute BEST.
I sought advice from married friends and they all recommended finding a great wedding planner to handle, at a minimum, the day of the wedding. However, I had a hard time finding someone in the Charleston area that was in our budget. Most planners were out of reach financially and looking to provide more services than we needed. We were so, so lucky to stumble upon Ashley Greene and her team at Posh Petals and Pearls. She was able to customize a package for us that fit our budget and our wedding planning needs. She's also TERRIFIC at her job and I can't recommend her highly enough.
Ashley is a fabulous listener. Our first meeting was so easy. She answered all of our questions and asked us a lot of great questions to make sure she understood what we were looking for. She was open, honest, personable and professional. She had great suggestions, too, but never felt pushy. I was immediately comfortable. The contract process was just as easy.
We hired her for the "month of" and that's when she really knocked our socks off. We had multiple phone meetings to review all of the details coming together and she had great advice and problem solving ideas during that hectic time. She met my mom and I the week of to do a walk through of our space, review the floor plan and decoration set-up, and answer any other questions we had. By the time I officially handed her the reins, I felt confident in letting go of the "nuts and bolts" of our wedding day, which is one of the best feelings you can have as a bride.
She was a rock star the weekend of our wedding. Our wedding rehearsal process was so smooth with Ashley at the helm. I'm not sure I can even articulate how amazing Ashely and her team were the day of our wedding. (Tears are coming just thinking about it.) She perfectly executed all the things we'd talked about and came the rescue in a few emergencies. HIRE HER! She's amazing and a really worth the investment.
