We're nearly 7…read moremonths pregnant, so Lindsey not only captured the proposal without my fiancee suspecting - getting tons of amazing candid shots - she basically set us up with engagement photos and maternity photos all in one. We were visiting Charleston for the weekend, so Lindsey helped me plan every detail down to a location in the heart of the city at the perfect time of day. She is personable and so easy to work with. We emailed, texted and jumped on the phone to discuss logistics over the two months leading up to the proposal. During the session, she suggested different poses and locations and never once made us feel rushed. She even made a couple restaurant suggestions for us as we parted ways. Lindsey has a great eye, and we are blown away with everything. My fiancee is so excited - not only that I had the wherewithal to plan this without her knowing a single detail, but also that I selected an awesome photographer. Lindsey has given us a very special way to remember this moment, and we can't thank her enough!

I wasn't sure if I could find a photographer within my budget without sacrificing quality. After meeting with my coordinator with George Street Studios and reading their reviews I knew I was lucky to have found them! Although I didn't meet my photographer until the wedding day I was given a lot of information and was able to view the photographer's portfolio which was exactly the style I was looking for. The online planning tool was easy to use and made wedding planning less stressful. I am so happy with the quality of my photos! Our photographer was prompt and fun to work with. Choosing George Street Studios was one of the best decisions I made for my wedding and highly recommend all couples to do the same!

Lee Edwards Entertainment was a complete disappointment and a frustrating experience from start to…read morefinish. From the beginning, it was clear that Lee operates as a "press play" DJ--if that's what you want, fine, but don't expect anything beyond that. We asked him to do a simple mix of two songs for our first dance so we could practice, and he said he "had to check his software" to see if he could do it. A DJ who can't mix two songs? Ridiculous. We ended up DIYing it ourselves with basic DJ software. Later, we decided to hire a legitimate DJ and requested a refund back in May for our September wedding. Lee gave endless excuses and delays, repeatedly asking for "a couple more weeks" over and over. Two months later, when I called one last time, his response was, "I'll see what I can do." If he can't deliver a basic service or refund money, it says everything you need to know about his business. We eventually recovered our funds via a bank chargeback, but Lee's handling of this process irreparably tarnished his reputation. Save yourself the headache--stay far, far away from Lee Edwards Entertainment unless you just want someone to press play on Spotify.

Christina Baxter Wedding + Events, the best wedding planner in Charleston. Over the course of a…read moreyear, Christina and Dana became like family to us. From the very first interview, we fell in love with Christina's infectious personality and limitless enthusiasm for making our vision Gullah+Jamaica+Cinderella wedding a reality. We'd interviewed other planners, but Christina's warm spirit and instanteous ideas sealed the deal. Indeed, it felt like we were excitedly planning with an old friend and not our planner. Christina soon introduced us to her Senior Event Coordinator, Dana, who worked with us every step of the way to make sure the details of our wedding were set and mapped out. They were a full service team, helping us with every detail from the invitations to the centerpieces. And when our 325-person wedding ballooned into a 400-person affair 3 weeks before the big day, these two did not miss a beat. They re-designed the entire reception layout and coordinated with every vendor. This was a particularly massive undertaking because we got married at Middleton Place, with an original plan to use some of the site's tables and other settings. When the numbers increased, we had to move everything outside and everything, and I mean everything, had to be adjusted to accommodate the new plan. Despite the abrupt change, the wedding was magical. Every bride I know talks about the meltdown she had on her day or the mishaps that occurred. I had none. Christina and Dana masterfully corralled our nearly 50-person wedding party through wedding prep, pre-wedding pictures, and the wedding precessional. This included hiring a personal assistant to travel with me for most of the day until the reception. Not only was that person amazing and friendly, but as a former pageant consultant, she was able to keep all my girls on schedule, help me get ready, and served as the liaison between myself and Christina and Dana. It worked out perfectly. Their wedding staff was great, with individuals stationed at various points on the grounds to direct my party and the guests. In the end, everything was on time and consistent with our detailed schedule. 400 people moved seamlessly from one part of the grounds to the next. Musicians (including a trio, steel drum band, and singers) were on time and prepared with their necessary cues. Post-wedding pictures were handled quickly, leaving us time to hangout with our guests at cocktail hour. Our reception was exactly what we asked for - a massive party. And it was made possible by Dana's recommended DJ (there's a reason why DJ Natty Heavy is consistently voted the best DJ in the area - he was fantastic). They kept the party going and made sure we were in position to leave on schedule in our fabulous getaway car. In short, from the amazing design to masterful execution, they did a phenomenal job. My family, wedding party, and guests couldn't stop talking about our planners and how they helped us bring "Hollywood" to Charleston. In one instance, a dear friend of mine who is an event planner and once coordinated events for President Barack Obama, took me aside and told me that my planners were top-notch and doing an impeccable job. You cannot go wrong with these two. This team created a wedding day better than we imagined, they listened to us, and invested 200% in executing this event. Our only regret was not having a bigger budget so they could have handled the entire wedding weekend. Thanks Christina and Dana!

As a negotiation expert, consultant, and trainer who trains Fortune 100 executives on the art of…read morenegotiation and has hosted events worldwide, I was skeptical about the need for an event planner and only considered several at my daughter's insistence. Having now worked with Cibi events I know that I was completely wrong - Cibi's choice of vendors, ability to obtain discounts from them herself, and efficiency with our time meant that we were ahead financially and personally, making her fee mute. We could never repay Cibi and Dana at Cibi Events for all that they did to make my daughter's and new son-in-law's wedding everything they dreamed of and more. It was the any of us have ever attended (an opinion shared by our guests despite the fact that many of them had weddings that were 5 times the budget ). Clearly Cibi provided additions and improvements that we did not pay for (surely coming out of her own pocket) to make the event even lovelier. Cibi and Dana are truly the ultimate professionals, with a remarkable eye to detail, exceptional ability to grasp the vision of their clients, impeccable taste, continual focus on service and truly unmatched ability to create an event that far exceeds one's expectation or imagination. And with all of that said, they are pure joy to work with, leading one to hope they might remain as friends.
