We had the pleasure of working with Addie for the last year and a half for our wedding. Our venue recommended Addie to us when we had an emergency situation. Our previous planner suddenly decided to no longer work on my wedding, so I had to pivot and find a new planner. From the moment I spoke to Addie on the phone, I knew she was the perfect match for us! She quickly sprang into action and reassured me that she would help me every step of the way. She helped with everything from vendor recommendations to communication with vendors and scheduling monthly check-ins leading up to the wedding. I frequently relied on Addie for her expertise and knew she was always just a call or a text away. On the day of the wedding, Addie and her team ensured everything ran smoothly. We were able to relax and fully enjoy our day, knowing that all the logistics were taken care of. Addie was right by our sides to ensure we were on schedule, had refreshments, and were comfortable. We would have been totally lost without her. Our guests were equally impressed and had a fantastic time. I could not have asked for a better wedding day. If you're looking for a wedding planner who is passionate, attentive, and incredibly talented, we highly recommend Dogwood Gatherings. Addie truly made our wedding day a magical and unforgettable experience!

The services that Addie and Dogwood Gatherings provide is the steal of the century. So reasonably priced for ALL that they do.

Addie herself is a delightful person and so wonderful to work with. I was a pretty apathetic bride without much of a knack for design and decor. She went above and beyond to cover my blindspots and make our wedding beautiful - all along the way intently listening to what we wanted and our budget.

Her recommendations and connections all over town for vendors makes her invaluable. She knows seemingly everyone in the industry here in Raleigh that made everything a breeze (some of whom even gave us discounts because we were working with her).

Dogwoods inventory of decor also saved us a small fortune. That is yet another added perk of working with them.

I cannot recommend Addie, her husband Mike, and this company enough. They are SO much more than "coordinators" -- they are there to help with anything and are just really great people.

We met Addie at our Venue’s open house and thought she would be excellent for our wedding. She was so quick to respond to our questions and gave great direction as far as where to look for vendors and get quotes for us. The day of our wedding Addie and her husband did an excellent job setting up our venue, making sure our vendors were on time, kept our timeline running smoothly, and just overall was wonderful to work with!! Do yourself a favor and hire Addie!!
