Orangerie Events

Working with Priscilla was an overall amazing experience! I utilized Orangerie Events for all of my day-of wedding coordination. Priscilla has such a sweet, caring personality and was absolutely great to work with! She is very attentive to detail and helped take care of EVERYTHING on the day of my wedding, helping to make the day as stress-free as possible for me as well as my parents and the entire wedding party. Throughout the entire wedding process, Priscilla was very quick to respond to emails and phone calls, and she helped me trouble shoot any issues I had with vendors prior to the wedding. Priscilla was so helpful during the wedding, helping to keep things running smoothly...she never missed a beat!! I highly recommend Priscilla and Orangerie Events to any bride out there looking for a wedding planner!! You will not be disappointed!! :)

Priscilla provided day of coordination for our wedding. As our wedding drew closer I knew that we neede someone to take care of all of the details for the day. I had seen the orangerie website during my wedding research and it always stuck out in my head. I met with Priscilla and she could not have been more lovely. She was friendly, helpful, creative and incredibly knowledgeable. The rehearsal ran so smooth and I already felt all of my worries fade away. The day of the wedding, she made sure that both my husband and I were completely taken care of. The ceremony and reception were wonderful and I didn't think twice about things being taken care of...they just were! My dad and brother both made sure to tell her what an amazing job she did and they could tell because I was having fun! I would recommend her to anyone looking for help on their wedding!

Orangerie Events provided me with a "Day of" coordinator. This was a huge weight off my shoulders and went wonderfully. Sharon was professional, knew exactly what needed to be done, and kept everything running smoothly.

Priscilla provided "day of coordination" for my husband and I's wedding last month. We chose to hire her after we saw the great job she did handling the wedding of a friend of ours. I wish I could put a score higher than 5 for value! Priscilla went above and beyond to ensure that our wedding day was exactly how we hoped it would be. We had over 11 different vendors (caterer, florist, chocolate favors, band, lighting, cake, etc.) and not a thing went wrong throughout our entire reception. If you are looking for a hard-working, down-to-earth, creative and affordable wedding coordinator, Priscilla is your girl. I will definitely be recommending her to all of my unmarried friends!

We could not have asked for a better wedding planner. Priscilla was there for us every step of the way for 14 months. She has the sweetest personality, a great sense of style, an amazing eye for detail, creative ideas, and an AWESOME professional attitude. Although we had only asked for mostly Day of Coordination, I feel like she went far and beyond and bent over backwards to make sure our wedding day was perfect. Not only was she willing to spend her birthday working our wedding but she did it with a beautiful smile on her face. I don't know many people who would sacrifice their own day to make others feel special. I would most definately recommend Priscilla of Orangerie Events to anyone who needed an event planner. She is AMAZING and well worth the money. I hope to have a forever friend now that the wedding planning is over.

Priscilla provided "day-of" coordination services as well as the candy bar ... throughout all our dealings she was extremely helpful & very professional ... & made the day go very smooth & efficient. She is full of ideas & recommendations & a "can-do" attitude. Overall a very positive experience & would recommend Orangerie Events to anyone that wants a smooth & successful wedding

Priscilla ensured that everything went exactly as planned and put everyone at ease. She met with me countless times to nail down little details and plan everything out, and I would definitely recommend her to anyone planning a wedding! Great job, Priscilla, you were a blessing to us!

Priscilla did a fabulous helping me with my "day of coordination." She met with me many time to discuss things and I swear I emailed her everyday with questions and she was always very responsive and told me not to worry. She did a great job and I would def recommend her to any bride!!!!

I want to thank Orangerie events for helping make our wedding day the most wonderful day of our life! It ended up being even more beautiful then we could have ever imagined! Everything turned out just perfect! Priscilla is a real pleasure to work with! She even sang during our ceremony, and let me add she sang beautifully! I will never forget how special Pricilla made our day!

Priscilla,
words can not express my gratitude. Your service was was above all my expectations. Page, who was our day coordinator was as perfect as you were. She handled the day like a dream come true and I do not know what I would have done without the two of you. There is no question in my mind that I will use your service again when my youngest daughter gets married. I was able to enjoy my daughters wedding and did not have to worry anything.

When my daughter decided to get married, I thought I would be able to handle everything by myself. I am a very detailed, organized person. However, a few months into the planning, I quickly realized that I would need some help. We went with the Partial Planning package and I am so glad that we did. The wedding was held several hours from our home, so I was dealing with vendors and locations long distance. After our first meeting with Priscilla, I knew I had made the right decision. She was so organized, professional, patient and kind. She met with us several times and responded to numerous emails. She never made me feel that I was a bother. She more than met my expectations and took care of several details that I had not expected her to. She was a delight to work with. My husband stated that hiring her was 'the best money that we spent on this wedding!'

Priscilla Erwin was AMAZING at my best friend's wedding! During the planning of the wedding my friend was super stressed, once she hired Priscilla she was a different person! She was SO relieved and was so happy with the value of hiring Priscilla. She knew all these great vendors to use and that made planning things so much easier! I was the maid of honor and was so impressed with the way she handled everything! At the rehearsal I know the bride wanted to just enjoy, and Priscilla organized all the family, had wonderful print out schedules for everyone, and just handled every detail! The wedding was wonderful and she took care of all the last minute details...including fetching the grooms ring for me! Once we were at the reception later we realized we didn't have a tossing bouquet- never fear! Priscilla gathered some extra flowers from decorations at the ceremony and fashioned a tossing bouquet that I would NEVER know was created on the spot! What's funny is neither of us even worried when we realized there was no bouquet, we were just like "Priscilla will handle it." and she did with grace! I HIGHLY recommend her for any bride!

We love Priscilla! She a was the day-of coordinator for my summer 2011 wedding at Leatherwood Mountains. When I met Priscilla, I found her to be very positive, genuine & professional. The great qualities she displayed at the beginning of the planning process were the very same throughout. She is a delight and the service she provides is so very necessary if you plan on enjoying your wedding day!

My family and I felt that our ceremony and reception were, in my dad’s words, “seamless “and Priscilla had everything to do with that. She was perfectly calm and collected as she adapted to the unique issues that my destination wedding presented. She is likeable and methodical, allowing her to command the attention of our wedding party and family members when needed. Everyone knew their role and were able thoroughly enjoy themselves at the same time.

Priscilla’s poise, attention to detail and organizational skills allow you to relax, confident that your wedding is in good hands. She took care of all the last minute details during the set-up and she communicated with the vendors all night to ensure the plan was being executed. I probably don’t know half of all the things she took care of for us. My new husband and I were able to truly live in the moment. I don’t want to think about what my wedding day would have been like without Priscilla!

When looking for a wedding planner, it was important to me that I found a good person who would serve as our ally & advocate. Priscilla was that ally! I knew I could trust her to carry out our vision. I can strongly Priscilla’s services without any hesitation and I have done just that with all of my engaged friends. :)

I am a true "J" on the Myers-Briggs, i.e. very organized, highly detailed, and rather obsessive about planning. From one organized woman to another, I can't say enough about how wonderful Priscilla Erwin is!!! We were married at The Matthews House in Cary on June 11, 2011! A last minute decision was made to move the ceremony indoors from the lawn to the ballroom due to the sweltering heat. Though the staff assured me that it would be no problem and that this sort of thing has happened before, but they were rather disorganized and didn't quite have things together on the day of the wedding. If it weren't for Priscilla stepping in, giving staff direction, and making sure every plan of mine was in place, then it would have been a nightmare! She was there to coordinate with the DJ, the venue staff, the florist, the cake maker, the servers, etc. In addition to coordinating the move of the ceremony indoors, she made sure that the ballroom was flipped and cleaned appropriate from the ceremony to the reception. Priscilla is thorough, detailed, professional, personal, and caring wedding planner/coordinator and I wouldn't recommend anyone else more highly or with more confidence!

Priscilla is absolutely wonderful to work with. Very professional, knowledgable and FUN! It was wonderful knowing the day would go smoothly with her in charge. And I hardly noticed her! She gets the job done without being one of those "bossy" directors :-) I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone to make their big day run smoothly.

When me and my wife got engaged, we thought no big deal we can plan a wedding! We soon found out that juggling work/school we were quickly becoming lost in what to do! My now wife informed me she found a wedding planner. When she met with Priscilla, she was truly impressed! She is super nice and was very fun to deal with! Our wedding was amazing and very organized! Priscilla help so much it seemed as if we just showed up, got married and relaxed! We had one issue, out of anyones control come up, and Priscilla handled it wonderfully and took care of us. Totally recommend to anyone Orangerie Events! Priscilla, you ROCK!!

Priscilla and Sharon did an amazing job with my best friend's wedding!! I was the maid of honor and talked with them for the bride who was out of town. They were flexible and so professional and organized! The timeline Priscilla made was great and Sharon was such an asset the whole day!! Any questions people had or concerns were taken care of right away and she really put us all at ease (especially the mother-of-the-bride! haha!). It was great working with her and having a "go to" person when we didn't know what to do. I highly recommend them both and will probably use them whenever I get married!

We were very pleased with Sharon and Priscilla day of the wedding planning. They were very organized and much appreciated. I would definitely recommend them! Wanda ( mother of the Bride)

While we've known Priscilla and planned events with her for several years, we recently had the pleasure of providing flowers for a wedding she was planning. She has an incredible knack of gently guiding and providing suggestions that makes her perfect as a wedding planner. She is very responsive to questions and her bright personality made working with her seamless and easy. We can't wait for the next event we plan together!

I would highly recommend Priscilla to any and everyone! She helped every step of the way. She did everything from helping design Invitations, RSVP, and Programs, to answering small questions that I had along the way, to coordinating the whole day! She was very professional and organized. Not to mention she did a wonderful job singing during the ceremony, she has an amazing voice! She also did awesome organizing the reception and making sure that everything was going in a timely manner. She even loaded the gifts into the car at the end of the night! She was a pleasure to work with & is worth every penny!

I recently used Priscilla at my wedding -April 30th. My husband and I had planned most of the details before the wedding but it would have not all come together without her. She was so great to work with...I told her my vision and she really got it :) I was so pleased with the little direction I gave her that she went above and beyond to do things I didn't ask to make my wedding perfect. She really did an amazing job and I would highly recommend her to any of my friends!!!!

I just can't say enough about Priscilla. My husband and I reside in California, so planning a wedding cross-country in Charlotte with a reception at the VanLandingham Estate would probably make most people think twice about it. She was amazing to work with. Having a conference planning background, I am a stickler for organization and getting things done ahead of time. Priscilla was always one step ahead of me. My vision was to have a spring-time garden party reception and she knew exactly what I wanted. It was so great to be able to bounce ideas off of someone who knew I wasn't totally crazy. She really helped to make our day special and we knew that we didn't have to think twice about details and that everything would run smoothly.

Priscilla did a fantastic job with our wedding. She helped us out with the last month of getting all the details together and did an amazing job on the day of our wedding to make sure everything was coordinated and ran smoothly. I highly recommend her!

Priscilla of Orangerie Events assisted with the rehearsal dinner for Tiffany and Brennan on Oct. 8. She met with me twice in Hickory for planning before the event and designed a fresh and fun theme and decor. She is creative, organized, connected to great sources, a good communicator and so very pleasant. As the groom's mother I had complete confidence in her skills and had a wonderful time at the dinner!

We used the "Just a taste" package as we had already planned the wedding which was a very small one. Despite the fact that we did all of the planning and arranging in advance, it is surprising how many details need attending to onsite once the events begin. That is where Orangerie Events and Sharon Short came in. Sharon is very experienced and was able to oversee all the details for the rehearsal and the wedding itself. She was invaluable and I recommend her and Orangerie events highly. A wonderful and professional service. Great price and wonderful service. I am very grateful for Sharon's presence and help at our wedding!

I stumbled upon Priscilla by accident when I was planning my wedding. I knew that I wanted someone for the day of the wedding. I interviewed several people, but Priscilla was the nicest. She was so warm and friendly and had lots of ideas. She was also very easy to work with and get in touch wth. I knew that my day was going to run smoothly with her. She is a very organized individual and takes her job very seriously. I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Priscilla was fantastic. She took the time to work with our schedule and unique needs. She was highly professional. Her enthusiasm, competence, and experience was on full display. Her attention to detail showed in everything she did. Without her, we would not have had such a great time at our wedding. We were able to give her control of everything that day enjoy our wedding. She worked well with all the vendors. My wife and I didn't have to worry about anything. I would recommend her to any of my friends who have weddings coming up.

Priscilla did an absolutely fantastic job with the coordination of our wedding. Although my husband and I had planned many of the details of our wedding day in advance, it would not have all come together without Priscilla's guidance and assistance. She oversaw all the details of our ceremony and helped us through every step of our wedding reception. My husband and I were truly able to enjoy every moment of our wedding day because we knew that Priscilla was there to let us know when we had to go cut the cake, toast, etc. She was a joy to work with and she also did a fantastic job communicating with the other vendors to ensure that everyone was on the same page. Thanks to Priscilla our wedding was the best day of our lives and I would highly recommend hiring her to anyone looking for assistance with the planning and coordination of their wedding day!

My husband and I worked with Priscilla at Orangerie Events to plan our wedding, and we couldn't have been happier with her. She even had my skeptical mom singing her praises by the time the big day arrived. Priscilla is so organized, and she easily paid for herself with the savings she managed to find me through her contacts. Her fees were very reasonable to begin with. The best money I've ever spent!!

Priscilla provided us with day of wedding services. I was able to speak with her over the phone before the wedding but because of my busy schedule I was unable to meet her in person until we got to the reception. From the second we met her she made us feel at ease and took charge of getting everyone where they needed to be at the right time.

We had a mess up with our linen order and Priscilla made sure that everything looked great. I didn't even know there was an issue until someone filled me in after we back from the honeymoon!

I would highly recommend Orangerie Events for your wedding day. I'm glad I put my big day in their very capable hands!

Priscilla was wonderful as our day-of coordinator! She was incredibly easy to work with and we could not have done it without her. We met with her once at the reception venue prior to the wedding, and she was efficient and friendly. At the wedding, she made sure the ceremony went smoothly and was very professional. The whole wedding party loved her! We had a small problem with the sound system at the wedding, and Priscilla handled the situation so well. I can't recommend her enough!

Orangerie events is a pleasure to work with! I hired them a few months before my wedding as my day-of-coordinator. Prior to the big day, Priscilla and I met and spoke a few times to iron out all the details. She was very easy to get along with and was extremely flexible and determined to make our wedding day perfect. Because Priscilla had prior obligations, Sharon Short was my day-of-coordinator and she was fantastic! Our decor was beautiful and went well beyond my expectations. Everything ran smooth and my mother and I were free to enjoy the wedding day, which was the most important thing to us. Sharon was super easy to work with and made sure everything was exactly how I wanted it! We also hired Deb Hice to run our photobooth and that was a total success. The pictures were priceless and all of our friends and family had a blast. I loved working with Orangerie events and thought they really exceeded all my expectations! Our day was perfect and much of that is owed to Orangerie events! I would highly recommend them! Thank you, Priscilla, Sharon, and Deb!

I cannot thank Priscilla and Orangerie Events enough! Without Orangerie Events my wedding would have probably been chaos! As soon as we got engaged I was so excited to begin planning the ceremony. I soon realized as a full time student with a full time job, I just could not do it all. I contacted Priscilla and she immediately took the reins. From top to bottom, beginning to end, she made our day perfect! Everything was beautiful and flawless. The best part of it all was that I never had to stress about a thing. Priscilla and her team took care of everything; the caterer, florist, DJ, cake...etc. Priscilla is creative and innovative and so pleasant to work with. I have had numerous compliments on what a beautiful and fun wedding it was. I would recommend Orangerie Events to any bride looking for an amazing, beautiful and stress-free wedding. Could not have asked for anything more! We had the best day of our lives! Thank you Orangerie Events!!!

We could not have asked for anyone more perfect than Priscilla to coordinate or wedding. She did such an amazing job and was so professional. Priscilla worked really hard to make sure our day was perfect - both my husband and I (and our whole families) were so impressed by how organized, efficient but also caring and sweet she is. I would recommend her to anyone planning any event! She was on top of everything and missed nothing, EVERYTHING was covered! We were just so fortunate to have her help us, was so beyond well worth it!!

Working with Priscilla was so wonderful. She is so good at what she does, and she was there for me every step of the way! I had complete confidence in her the day we met for our first meeting. She took a lot of interest in my vision and ideas for my wedding. She worked really hard to make sure everything went according to plan and really came through for me when I needed her. I would recommend her to anyone. Thanks Priscilla!!!

Priscilla did a remarkable job. My daughter-in-law found the perfect person to help her plan a beautiful wedding within her budget. I am fully convinced that the wedding would not have gone as smoothly without all of Pricilla’s help in the planning stage and her quick thinking problem solving behind the scenes on the actual wedding day. I also hired Priscilla to help me plan the Rehearsal Dinner. As an out of town hostess, her help was invaluable. She helped me find the place and the perfect florist. Most importantly, she was there that evening before the guest to make sure the room was set up as was discussed with the venue. She was also there to make sure the flowers arrived and to set out the place cardsand votives. I fully intended to get to the venue 20 minutes early. Imagine my concern when, running late, I arrived 5 minutes prior to the guests. Imagine my delight when I walked in and all was perfect and ready. My advice to you as a Bride, or as a future mother-in-law is, hire her. You will not be disappointed.

Priscilla helped me plan a birthday party for my Mom with about 6 weeks’ notice. Her price was very competitive AND she came through with flying colors. The vendors she picked were fabulous and her great sense of style really helped me pull the look of the party together. I can’t even count the compliments I received on the location, the décor, and how much fun everyone had. I can't thank Priscilla and her team enough for helping me throw a great party; I'll never plan a party without her again!

Priscilla took care of so many details, big & small, both before & during our wedding weekend! She ensured that the wedding day was totally worry-free so we could just focus on having fun!

Priscilla is the epitome of style, sweetness and organization. Those are three very important traits of a great event planner. From our first meeting together, I could tell why she is one the leading NC event coordinators. Her eye for detail showed in her welcome gift basket and her down to earth personality made it easy to talk with her. She made me feel like I was talking to a long lost friend. I always recommend Priscilla to brides because I know that she will get the job done and will bring the bride's vision to life while still staying within her budget. She is very dependable, responsive and most of all just plain nice. Choose Priscilla with Orangerie Events if you want the hassle-free, gorgeous wedding of your dreams!

I recommend the services of Orangerie Events to make your Wedding Day that very special day you always wanted,that will be remembered and cherished by you and all your guests for many years to come. ~~ Angela Neik, www.calligraphybyangela.com Dallas Calligrapher

Priscilla was fantastic to work with and we loved having Orangerie events at Haywood Hall.

Several of my DJs have worked with Orangerie and always rave about their service. They are on time, reliable, and professional, which are three very important qualities for a planner!

Priscilla is a joy and a pleasure to work with. She is always present without being obvious. She has the talent to take the space available and utilize it to its maximum potential. The entrance of the bridal party has a choreographed effect. Every detail is quickly and professionally handled. She gently guides and directs, never commands. Priscilla is kind, considerate, attentive, courteous, gracious, adept and a master in her chosen field. I highly recommend her.

Many Blessings to Priscilla and Orangerie Events -
