Susan and Willrich Bridal are the ultimate, comprehensive wedding planners! Every single detail of my rehearsal and wedding/reception was discussed and thoroughly prepared! I was overwhelmed with the realization of the amount of detail (and attention to detail!) that goes into planning a wedding. My mother and I could not have had my perfect wedding without their help. They even provided my with vendors that they have close working relationships with that I could fully trust. Professional, always available, and thorough are the perfect words to describe their services. My wedding day included a staff member to attend to every detail..me, both sides of our families, groom, etc. They kept me sane and calm! Having known many wedding and event planners, no one has even come close to the service that Susan and her Willrich Bridal staff can provide. I would recommend to them anyone who is getting married or planning a very special event...you are safe in their hands! I cannot say enough about the insane amount of help they provided!!

Susan Sanford and her team were amazing!! They were very professional, extremely organized, and a wedding lifesaver! I couldn't imagine having done this without them. I would highly recommend their services. Specifically, they made the day of the wedding stress free for me. They had already contacted all the vendors 2 weeks prior and ensured everything was on time and they all knew where they were going. The day of, they had a timeline broken down by 15 minute increments to keep everything moving smoothly and making sure people were where they needed to be (aka - during the cake cutting, they made sure both sets of parents were brought to the front so they wouldn't miss it). They just had all the details down and it made it so my husband and I could truly enjoy ourselves!

Susan and the entire Willrich staff did a tremendous job perfecting every single detail leading up to our special day. Our entire wedding weekend was more than we could have ever imagined, and it would not have been possible without the help of Willrich Bridal. I am so thankful we chose Susan to be our wedding planner! I would HIGHLY recommend her and the wonderful Willrich staff! Simply the BEST in the Upstate!

No one should try to have a wedding without a wedding coordinator and those in this area should consider Willrich Bridal. They took care of all the small and large things at my daughter's wedding that freed me up to enjoy the day as Mother of the Bride. I considered the money spent for this service well-spent and worth every penny. Susan's crew was courteous and professional and worked well with other vendors to accomplish all that needed to be done.

My wedding was AMAZING and there is no way it would have been as perfect and special without Susan and her staff. They planned my wedding so that the wedding day ran like a well-oiled machine. Susan is always available for her brides and she answered all my emails and phone calls within the hour. She is amazing and there is no one better to help plan your special day!

We had a wonderful experience with Susan and her team. It was a HOT August day and Susan kept us all cool and collected. It was so nice to just enjoy the day. The details were handled seemlessly in our perception and we never knew of any of the little glitches that always occur.
GUEST

These ladies were fantastic. They made my dream wedding happen. I was so flustered and busy with planning, and Susan and her team took care of ALL of the details. So worth it. I don't know how people ever get married without a planner. They were prepared for EVERYthing.

Quality of Service -They are great planners, but most of all, they are knowledgeable, reliable, and are able to react when necessary. I remember at the end of my ceremony, my wife and I just kept going on and on about the coordinators and how great they were.
Responsiveness - Susan was alway quick to respond with a phone call or email to any question or problem that I had.
Professionalism - The entire Willrich Bridal staff was extremely professional in everything they did and in the way they looked and acted. My guests were very impressed the entire group and commented that I must have spent a fortune hiring them.
Value - After going through the entire wedding process, my wife and I agreed we would have been crazy if we had not hired Susan and Willrich Bridal to do our wedding. They had several different packages and we took the full service package for all that it would provide us. Believe me, I would have paid more, no questions asked, for the great service they provided us.
Flexibility - Susan was extremely available to us during the entire process of planning and the rehearsal and wedding. She went out of her way to schedule meetings and also attend vendor meetings with us.

Susan really knows her stuff! She has been a wedding planner in the Greenville area long enough that I would trust she could point any couple in the right direction according to their tastes, needs and, of course, budget. She also regularly updates her blog with lots of great tips and tricks to make the most of your wedding day.

Susan and her team were amazing to work with.

We had the privilege of working with Willrich Bridal & Special Events for a wedding recently and were extremely impressed with how detail oriented and on top of everything Susan and her team were! I must say, it was great to see Susan personally take the time and effort to be sure this particular bride was being treated fairly in all areas involved! My bride let me know just how much it meant to her to have Susan take certain stressful encounters off of her hands and to know those situations would be resolved with grace and also in fairness to her, the bride. I love seeing vendors go above and beyond their call of duty simply because they care about their clients in such a high regard. Any bride would be more than happy to have Susan's eye for detail, her kind heart, willing hands, and professional experience on her side for such an important time in her life! I hope to work many more events with Susan and her team!

FAQ for Willrich Bridal & Special Events, Inc.
Answer :
I once read a quote that said “A planner is your friend, your guide and your expert”. This couldn’t be more correct. When you begin planning, there is so much that it is just overwhelming. So many questions, like “where do I start”, “who do I call”, “when should things be done”. All these questions will be answered by your planner. At Willrich, we do hours of training and research so that we are completely up on what is current and popular, as well as all the time honored traditions.
Question : Why Should I pick Willrich Bridal and Special Events?
Answer :
As you look at planners and what they offer, you will see that most have the same basic plan, what makes the difference is the amount of time they have to spend on your wedding, their ability to take your ideas and turn them into the wedding of your dreams and their enthusiasm for your event. This is our full time business, not part time, not a side line or a hobby. We will always have a quick response time to any questions and be available to discuss your ideas and plans. Having been a recent bride herself, Susan Sanford, owner, understands how you feel better than most anyone.
Question : How can I be assured that this will be my wedding and not the planner’s idea of a wedding?
Answer :
We know that every bride has either a total plan for her ideal wedding or at the very least an idea of what she wants. We will work with you to make this dream come true. We will work with the vendors you chose, or help you choose from vendors we are familiar with. We do not have any “deals” worked out with vendors that we will try to push on you. It is our job to make sure that you make informed decisions with the vendors you choose. You need to feel comfortable that your dreams will be carried out by these vendors. We will work within your budget, helping you make the decisions that best fit your dream and your budget.
Question : How does a first meeting with you work?
Answer :
When you decide you are interested in working with us, you may either call or email and we will be glad to set up a convenient appointment time to get together.
Please bring any ideas and questions you have with you. We will have you fill out a brief registration form; spend some time discussing your plans and the time schedule you are working in.
Question : What happens next, if we do book with you?
Answer :
If you decide to book with us, a 50% deposit is required with the remainder of the balance due 14 days before the wedding. At booking you will fill out a contract and a complete registration form. You decided if you want the Full Service package or Rehearsal and Wedding Day Services Package. If you have decided on the Full Service Package we will discuss what you need to be working on, possible vendors and budget plans. We will go over some timelines and checklists. As you move forward with your plans, we will help you book appointments with your vendors, attend appointments, ask the questions that need to be asked. We will help you make sure the plan is coming together just the way you want. If you have decided on Rehearsal and Wedding Day Services Package only, we will make plans to meet twice before your wedding to go over your plans and vision for your wedding day. And then we will do everything possible to make your day go smoothly, appear effortless and stress
