    The best coordinator I could have ever asked for!

    Trent was the freaking BEST!!! Our wedding ran so smoothly thanks to him and his team. He truly took all the stress and worries away. Communication with him was so easy -- he always made himself available. From our initial meeting to the day of the wedding, he was always free to answer any questions and give very helpful tips/opinions. He put a lot of care and attention into our day and I will forever be grateful for him! He was very detailed, super fun and caring, and helped this type-A bride relax and not worry about a thing! I highly recommend Something Fabulous for any planning needs! You will love them :)

    Professional, organized, supportive!

    Working with Something Fabulous was the best decision we made for our wedding! Trent and Rachel were very supportive, helpful and organized leading up to our wedding. They kept us on track for key milestones, gave great suggestions as we were looking for specific ideas and vendors, and were so supportive with vendor communication and logistics leading up to and at the wedding. Rachel and Tommy were our day of support and they helped us feel at ease and covered every detail so that we didn't have to really keep track of anything. Having worked in events, it was amazing to be on the side of experiencing a very well run event. Not having to make any decisions and having everything pre arranged for the weekend of the wedding was amazing. They even made sure we had a few minutes to ourselves where we got to eat and enjoy the food! Huge kudos to Trent, Rachel and Tommy for making our big day simple and flawless so that we could enjoy all of the fun with our family and friends! Highly recommend!

    We LOVE Something Fabulous!!

    Madison with is the best!! She was so communicative and such a pleasure to work with throughout wedding planning. I didn’t have a care in the world on wedding day because I knew Madison and her team were taking care of everything, and she was so fun to chat with I always looked forward to our meetings. I would recommend Something Fabulous to anyone who will listen!!

    Something Fabulous is ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    We would NOT have made it through the wedding planning process had it not been for Madison, Trent and the entire Something Fabulous team. Their positivity, help and support came in at the perfect time. When our venue told us that hiring a day of planner was required, we were initially hesitant because it was not a part of our vision or budget. However, from our very first meeting, I knew that Something Fabulous was exactly who needed to work with - it was clear that helping us plan the day of our dreams was their priority. Each member of the team was kind, personable, supportive and oh so knowledgable in their craft. They were thorough, great listeners, well organized and had great insight when it came to making tough decisions. We are SO appreciative of all Something Fabulous did to help make our wedding day so special and memorable!

    Great and fantastic!

    ASHLEY AND TRENT!!!!!! I could not brag about Something Fabulous enough. They are seriously the best! Ashley was amazing at helping planning and making sure everything was perfect! She really paid attention to every detail! Trent personally helped me calm a bunch of nerves and was there with me until I walked down the aisle! I was so nervous and Trent was a great support system! They made sure we were fed and also made sure we had a drink in our hand! They made everything so seamless and my husband and I are so grateful! Rachel was also a big help with me and small details which I am grateful!! HIGHLY recommend, as they remained calm with such a crazy family!

    We wouldn’t have made it without them - for real

    I know everyone says there wedding is extravagant and a lot moving parts/love their planner etc. etc., but I can not put into words how insane our Halloween masquerade wedding was. And without Trent and Ashley, it never would’ve happened and we would’ve been married in the courthouse. Which is fine - but not what we wanted. Trent was basically ON CALL. And when I was fed up with linen’s/plates/whatever, he took point. This review doesn’t have space to capture everything he did for us. Including but limited to: mitigating panic/dealing with difficulties/ensuring everything was 1000% perfect/and to top it off - Trent and Ashley were the only reason the entire wedding party made it back to the house (I forgot to pay for transportation back😬). They came to the rescue EVERY time. Actual saviors in the flesh right here. If you’re thinking of going with someone else - don’t. If you do, you will sorely regret not having these angels guide you through it all❤️. They are two of the most incredible humans I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. All our love - Rachel & Joe

    Unparalleled Amazingness

    Something Fabulous Weddings & Events absolutely NAILED our wedding. They were with us every step of the way and always went above and beyond with each aspect of planning. My wedding was one of the most important days of my life, and I would 10/10 choose SFW again. They took the stress out of planning while constantly exuding professionalism and knowledge of the industry. Highly, highly, highly recommend!

    Seamless Wedding Planning Partnership

    The team at Something Fabulous Weddings are a powerhouse squad I’d recommend 10x over. They are extremely knowledgable, well-connected with trusted partners and vendors in the area and provided the best guidance throughout our entire experience. And on our big day, they were a calming presence for us, a strong leadership team for our event and the best energy to make the everything come together perfectly.

    Professional, organized, flexible, and so much fun!

    There are no words to describe how grateful we were for Something Fabulous. Ashley and Abby created our day to be everything we wanted and more! They were great communicators, were very organized, and so much fun! My husband and I did not have to worry about anything other than enjoying the wedding because we knew we were in the best hands with Ashley and Abby in charge.

    our favorite vendor

    Trent provided day of planning services for my wedding and I truly cannot say enough about how vital Trent was to executing a seamless and stress-free wedding day, both before the wedding and day of. He was extremely responsive, pro-active, and always had a problem-solving attitude. Trent was by far our favorite vendor we hired and I cannot recommend Something Fabulous enough!

    Totally awesome!

    Trent is such a fabulous wedding planner. He is organized, professional, and made the entire process easier. If we had a question and he didn’t have the answer, which was rare, he got the answer and responded back immediately. Everyone we dealt with at Something Fabulous were outstanding.
    Our entire family and wedding party fell in love with Trent and his enthusiasm. He is a gem and one of the best decisions we made was to hire Something Fabulous!

    Do it! Just say “yes” to Something Fabulous.

    We worked mostly with Ashley through our planning process, but also got the chance to work with Trent early on. They are both phenomenal human beings who really care about helping you create an incredible experience. We did the partial planning option which was perfect for us. We knew we could do a lot of the initial coordination with our vendors but needed some structure and guidance to help us get started in terms of vendor selection and understanding how to break down our budget. The tools and resources they provided made it easy for us to select an INCREDIBLE vendor team, and Ashley was available for questions throughout. The final few months leading up to the wedding Ashley took over the coordination with our vendors which allowed us to focus on getting ready for the big day. Ashley and her team who were with us on our wedding day did a fantastic job making sure everything was exactly as we’d hoped. We cannot say enough good things about Ashley, Trent, and the entire Something Fabulous team!

    The PERFECT Tangled Wedding!

    I cannot express how FANTASTIC everyone at Something Fabulous Weddings and Events was to work with. My husband and I went into wedding planning with NO IDEA what we were doing, and Trent and Ashley were so patient and so helpful and did everything they could to ensure that our wedding went perfectly. And I mean perfectly! The entire day of the wedding we (the couple) were stress free and happy, and if anything did go wrong, we had no idea. Trent and Ashley were also AMAZING at really taking our vague ideas of what we wanted and turning them into a full blown vision of the perfect Tangled themed wedding. From décor to seating charts, they were always providing the best suggestions. They also went above and beyond to suggest ways that we could be more budget friendly and still keep our vision the way we wanted it! When we first started our planning process we were stressing about where to even begin when looking for vendors, and all that stress vanished when we were provided with a curated list of vendors based on our budget and vision for the wedding. This saved us SO much time and stress, and really let us focus on the details instead of spending hours reading every review for every local vendor. We cannot express how grateful and thankful we are to the team at Something Fabulous Wedding and Events for helping to ensure that our wedding day was absolutely magical. Hiring them was the absolute best decision that we made for our wedding and given the chance to do it all over (not that we ever would), they would be the first people we would go to. Thank you so much to Something Fabulous Wedding and Events for helping us have the PERFECT wedding.

    Knows their business!!

    The best part was the day of. I didn’t worry about anything! All the meetings leading up to the event were extremely helpful. I don’t think there was anything we asked for that wasn’t possible. Trent went above and beyond!!

    Detailed and prepared!

    I worked with Ashley for the day of coordination of our October wedding and we couldn’t have been happier with how it turned out! She is so patient and calm which helped set the tone for our planning meetings and the big day, it also helped alleviate our stress knowing we’re in good hands. I loved their info packet that kept records of every detail that I went in and updated it almost everyday, and that she managed all the vendor coordination which took a lot off my plate. And on the day of, Ashley and her teammate Michelle handled all the decorating while I was spending time with my bridesmaids and getting ready, and it was perfect and even better than how I pictured it. The Something Fabulous team is so professional and definitely know what they’re doing, and an absolute pleasure to work with from my intro call with Trent to the sparkler exit expertly led by Ashley. Thank you all!

    Coomer's Wedding

    Upon first meeting Trent and Ashley, My now HUSBAND and I fell in love with their glowing personalities in which brought a very fun, exciting, & special touch to the planning process of our wedding, overall we felt a sense of security knowing that our every need was well taken care of from that point forward. We received a tremendous amount of information from the Something Fabulous team for every little detail that we wanted as well as some very unique and creative ideas that Trent and Ashley recommended to make our day even more special. The ease of communication was truly a huge help and we found that they both were always one step ahead of us with any need that we had, even if we didn't realize it was needed at the time. Looking back on our Wedding, I can say it was absolutely the most beautiful day of our lives and we are thankful to have the guidance and never-ending support of the Something Fabulous team.

    The Absolute Best!!!

    Trent was our day-of coordinator for our wedding yesterday and he was a rockstar!! He handled absolutely everything from set up, to making sure people were where they needed to be, to just checking in. I cannot brag on him enough! The amount of time and planning he put in to our big day meant so much and we could tell he really cared. He handled absolutely everything we needed and he didn’t hesitate if we asked him to do something. Hiring Something Fabulous was the BEST decision we could have made and we are so thankful to Trent (and Kari who came to help on the big day)!

    Stress free wedding day

    Ashley and Trent were my day-of-coordinators and they were an amazing duo to work with! We were originally supposed to have our wedding on November 2020 but had to reschedule it twice and they were so understanding and accommodating about it. They were really responsive throughout the whole process and made sure everything was set before the day of the wedding day. On the day of the wedding, they were super organized and made everything run smoothly. If there were any issues or problems, I didn't know about it because they were so good about resolving and dealing with it. I was a DIY bride so I had a lot of decorations that I made and they did an amazing job setting everything up like I wanted.

    Dream Wedding Coordinator

    If we could give Something Fabulous Weddings a higher rating than a five, we would do so in a heartbeat! We had the great fortune of working with Trent for our wedding on May 21, 2022 in Raleigh and we just have to say that he is an absolute gem! We immediately clicked with him when we first met via zoom and knew the days leading up to the wedding and the day itself were going to be as stress free as possible. Trent answered all of our questions, hopped on several phone/zoom calls whenever we needed it (including a call with the mother of one of the brides), and met up with us when we came to town. When it came to the wedding weekend, Trent made sure to check in with us and always asked if we needed anything. Trent brought along his fantastic assistant Kari who was just as much of a gem as Trent! Kari also made sure to check in with both of us and even calmed me down when I was getting really nervous as the ceremony was starting. She made sure I was hydrated and staying cool as it was 95 degrees the day of our wedding. Trent and Kari made sure we were sticking to the timeline throughout the night and we never had to worry about anything (we could just enjoy our day). At the end of the night Trent graciously packed up our car with all of our decorations and even drove us back to the hotel so we didn't have to walk. We couldn't have asked for a better wedding coordinator to work with. Trent and Kari are the dream team!

    The Perfect Choice

    Ashley and Trent helped make our dreams come true. From start to finish, they guided my wife and I from a few scattered ideas to the perfect wedding day. They provided us critical feedback and suggestions to ensure that we selected the best vendors in the Wilmington area. They were professional, timely, affordable, organized, and responsive. They listened to our thoughts and concerns, planned accordingly, and worked to ensure that we had the absolute best day we could possibly have. Thank you both from the bottom of our hearts.

    Sincerely,
    Ashley and Colin Rothwell

    Life and wedding savior!

    If you are reading this, then you're probably looking for a wedding planner (congrats). Look no more. Hire Trent and Ashley! Both of them are absolutely phenomenal in their work. However, I worked with Trent during most of the duration and months leading up to my magical wedding day. I have a million amazing things to say about Trent but I will try to narrow them down the best that I can. Trent is so amazingly meticulous with every aspect of the planning process. From flowers, table setting, decorations, to helping me with my wedding shoes he gets an A++. Trent is also so wonderful with making sure you stay in budget. We went over in a few categories, but Trent made sure we budgeted accordingly in other places to stay within our price range. Trent is a friend. I had quite a few meltdowns, and needed someone to vent to often during stressful months. Trent was my confidant and ALWAYS helped me. Trent was my saving grace, angel, rock, (one of the many) biggest supporters (if not my #1) on my big day. My wedding day was literally the most spectacular day of my life, and that's all thanks to him. I could literally go on forever talking about how amazing of a person, professional, and wedding planner he is, but I may cry because that's how special he is to me. You will not be let down in the slightest by hiring Ashley and Trent, I promise.

    Awesome Wedding Coordinators

    Ashley and Trent were amazing.... I hired them to coordinate the rehearsal dinner as my son and daughter-in-law were using them for the wedding. They were on top of everything, professional and so easy to work with. They made the night a huge success!! Thank you
