I plan only a handful of weddings per year, and I mean that genuinely. I want to be available to you — for emails and texts, for phone calls, for coffee when you need to think something through. I want to know what you're worried about and what you're dreaming of. I want to be the person you call the week before the wedding when everything feels like too much. That kind of availability requires limits, and I keep them.
I am joined by a wonderful colleague who serves as the day-of companion to the bride and groom during the reception — quietly present, beautifully attentive, making sure every moment runs exactly as it should so that the couple never has to think about anything except each other.
My scope of service can be as comprehensive as you desire: setting an initial overall budget, sourcing and vetting vendors, negotiating contracts on your behalf, developing a complete visual vision for your wedding weekend, and fully executing all plans through the final send-off. Or I can simply bring my designer's eye to a wedding that already has its shape, helping you see what it could look like at its most intentional best.
Whatever the scope, my primary commitment is the same: that you enjoy this time. That the months leading up to your wedding feel like anticipation, not anxiety. That on the day itself, you are present for every moment because someone else has thought of everything else.
It is a true honor to me to be included in a family’s most special day.

—
I have spent twenty-five years as an interior designer, working alongside families to articulate a vision for their homes — and then doing whatever it takes to bring that vision to life. My interior design business, Patina Antiques & Interiors, has been my home and my practice since 2000. I love it deeply. But when I began planning weddings for my daughters, I discovered something I hadn't expected: every instinct that makes me a good designer also makes me a deeply invested wedding planner.
Three Daughters Events is named for Katie, Sara, and Emily — my three girls, and the three weddings that first showed me what I was capable of when love is the brief. Each wedding was completely different. Katie's was navy and ivory and chinoiserie, a summer evening in Charlotte that felt like a room from a design magazine. Sara's was soft sage and coral, a mountain wedding that turned a rainy afternoon into something more beautiful than any of us had planned. Emily's is coming in June, and it will be something else entirely.
That is the point. I do not have a look. I have a process — one that begins with listening, moves through vision, and ends with a weekend that feels entirely, unmistakably like the two people getting married.
