Smooth Sailing Weddings

  • Offers 3 services
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Duck, NC

With deep local expertise, trusted vendor relationships, and a genuine love for bringing one-of-a-kind wedding visions to life, my goal is to make your planning experience feel seamless and stress-free. Wedding planning becomes fun, personal & thoughtfully guided, so you feel seen, heard, and taken care of every step of the way.

“Sasha Voronova and the Smooth Sailing Team is by far the best decision we made for our wedding this past October (Co-Planning Package). From the professional consultation to the post-wedding lunch date (where we got to gush over everything all over again, including videos and pictures Sasha took of our wedding day!), Sasha was warm, fun, and so incredibly helpful! She put us at ease and made planning this big event not only fun, but what felt like a breeze. She had spreadsheets galore to support every phase of planning, making it very approachable to review vendors, track expenses, and explore resources and websites for anything we needed or were interested in researching on our own. Using her co-planning package, we were routinely impressed with Sasha's professional preparedness blended with her creativity to shape our vision for our wedding, without pushing her own agenda. As is common for throwing a wedding during hurricane season, we needed to go with our "indoor plan" due to the weather. Even though we had picked a venue that had an easy and spacious option for an indoor plan (Jennette's Pier), it was not what any of us wanted. However, Sasha met with us a few days before the wedding and had come up with the most magical plan that included flipping the room from a traditional ceremony set-up to the reception area (which she pulled off in 12 minutes!). She did this all without sacrificing the beauty we envisioned for both parts of our wedding or without disrupting the flow of cocktail hour or our guests experience. Looking back we are still in such awe of her vision, direction, and calm presence to make it all happen. Outside of the stress that comes with "how do we stay dry in this?!" we never felt a moment of stress or anxiety as we moved through the day. She had even planned a special-surprise for us as we arrived at the venue based on something she learned about us in getting to know us. Sasha is a DELIGHT to work with and you would be lucky to have her as your planner. We are lucky to get to call her our friend now.”

“Kristen and her team were amazing- her services were the most critical part of our wedding! She was so organized and on top of everything for the wedding, as soon as I hired her I felt so much more at ease with the planning process. I did a pretty much DIY wedding, my venue did not provide anything other than the venue and furniture, therefore, I had a lot of moving parts to my wedding and multiple vendors involved. Kristen took all the chaotic information I provided and streamlined the whole thing. She organized everything for me into a very easy to follow timeline and then was in constant communication with all the vendors. My regular hair dresser is the hair dresser I used for my wedding and she and I are friends. She told me that from a vendor's perspective, Kristen was the best coordinator/planner she had ever worked with. She was very impressed with her constant communication and all of the details she thought of in preparation of the event. Kristen and her team took my vision and made it a reality which was no easy task but she got it done. This was hands down the most positive experience I had in wedding planning/preparation and I would highly recommend Kristen for any planning needs!”

“Where do we start. Our venue for our Friday, Saturday and Sunday events cancelled on us six weeks out, our bartenders sent our cake crashing to the ground and our florist really didn’t get it right. However, Morgan and company helped us manage all of it with grace and made the process as easy as possible on us. We felt incredibly grateful to have them be part of our day! They made the process much less stressful and the day of we could relax and know things were being taken care of. Exactly what we needed!! From literally chasing down our florist, her team having to come in hot with day of decor where the vendor messed up, to having to move our outdoor reception indoors due to unexpectedly cold weather, they never missed a beat.

My name is Makenzie, a North Carolina native and UNC–Chapel Hill graduate with a love for creativity, organization, and meaningful moments. When I’m not researching vendors, breaking down budgets, or perfecting timelines, you can usually find me hiking, crafting, or spending time with my mini-me’s. Wedding planning felt like a natural calling once I realized I could combine my love for celebrations with my knack for lists, spreadsheets, and problem-solving. I approach each couple like a trusted friend, creating a calm, supportive planning experience so you can truly enjoy your engagement and wedding day.

“We had an amazing experience with Carolina Event Masters. We had Kenzie as our coordinator as well as two amazing assistants. We had a 7-month engagement and got married December 20, 2025 for a wedding in Henderson, NC with about 100 people in attendance. We found CEM through a NC brides Facebook page when we posted looking for day-of coordinators. CEM had several options for what level of support we needed and we went with the middle option - it comprised, in brief, day-of coordination and running the rehearsal, assistance finding a few vendors, and several planning meetings. The level of service we received was what I'd expect from a planner more than a coordinator. CEM wasn't there to show up the day-of and motion to the piano to start playing. They coordinated in advance every moment of the day to make sure it went smoothly and was exactly what we wanted. Not only did they get the contact info of all the vendors for emergencies, but they confirmed every policy and communicated with them in advance to make sure they knew what to expect. They toured the church and reception venue to make sure they were familiar with the spaces. Not only did they helped with what we asked about, but they asked questions to help us avoid making last-minute decisions or missing things that were important to us that we hadn't thought about. For ex., they asked about what we wanted to happen with the flowers after the reception. They also gave us advice based on their experience. For ex., recommending we list the table assignments by last name. The rehearsal was very professional and pleasant - they were very prompt and made sure to go through everything thoroughly. The day of the wedding they split up between church/reception venue. EVERYTHING was either on-time or early all day. They went above and beyond to help set up the reception - something we definitely didn't expect from a coordinator. Our reception venue had staff that set the tables etc., and we had a florist, but CEM reviewed everything, made sure the placecards/kids bags/high chiars were in the right place down to the chair, etc. They also were familiar with the type of photobooth we rented and they set it up entirely for us. All this set up and more was just way beyond what we expected and extremely helpful. We could tell they were invested in making everything beautiful and perfect. Sarah also took several beautiful photos for us - a complete surprise and very special treat. One of our favorite photos from the night was one she took of our first dance. This also gave us a sneak peak into what the reception looked like before anyone had arrived! (All attached photos are from her). We had an issue with our seating chart and they saved the day - long story short it was going to be delivered AFTER the wedding and we thought we were out of luck. I mentioned the issue to Kenzie and when I arrived from the church after the ceremony I saw the seating chart in the doorway before our entry! She had ordered it, picked it up, and set it up for us. I don't know how she did it, but she did, and it was so thoughtful and touching that she would put in that extra effort on top of everything they had on their plates. I could go on and on but I hope this reflects just some of what CEM did for our wedding and how thrilled we were with them. They are a lovely group of people. If we HAD to cut any cost or change any vendor, they would be last on the list. It was perfect.”

“Working with Bre was easily one of the best vendor choices we made while wedding planning. Our wedding ceremony became a kind of “pop-up” style event and Bre rolled with every decision and last minute detail we threw at her. With her day-of coordination package, we were able to have 2 pre wedding meetings and a rehearsal the day before. I went into the rehearsal feeling nervous about how things would go and left feeling so reassured and excited! The day of the wedding Bre checked in with me and made sure things were running smoothly. I felt so calm and confident walking up to the venue knowing Bre was in charge and bringing our vision to life! The whole day went beautifully and I know it’s because Bre was working her magic behind the scenes. She stayed until the last moment of clean up and made sure all our personal items and gifts made it home with us. Beyond just receiving a great service, it was so special to work with someone who truly celebrated with us and took care of us like we were old friends. I would 100% recommend working with Magical Moments and wish we could get married again to continue working with them!”

Then they continued to provide clear and open communication throughout the planning process and were able to make suggestions as needed to advance my vision. The week of the wedding I was in contact with Morgan who would be our official day of coordinator. Morgan ended up saving the day when our bartender cancelled on us last minute; she stepped in and bartended on top of coordinating. Then she was able to work with me to donate our flowers to a women’s shelter; a cause that hits close to home for me. I cannot recommend Avenue Design Studio enough!!”

I would recommend this company to every single newly engaged couple (especially those of you considering not hiring a coordinator -- trust me, you need them!).”

“Alondra Remington Wedding & Event Planner was an exceptional wedding planner for our special day. From the start, her communication style was good, assertive, and she was always alert to our needs. The quality of her work was wonderful, and she was a sweet person to work with throughout the planning process. It was wonderful to have her as the wedding planner for my son's wedding. She is great in her field, and I would 100% recommend her services. I will choose her again for my other son's wedding.”

Our perfected planning process means your wedding day requires just one thing from you: showing up. Why 3 months? This is when experienced planning prevents last-minute chaos, and you can hand off the stress right when timelines, vendors, and logistics matter most.

“Where do I even begin?? Savannah made my day absolutely beautiful, seamless, stress free and organized! The very idea of planning a wedding in 7 months was enough to overwhelm me and she kept me on track with what needed to be done and when. I wouldn’t have been able to do it without her! Our Hilton Head wedding was truly the best day ever and that is in big part because of her. My mother in law loved her so much she asked me if Savannah would be willing to travel to Texas for my sister in laws wedding when that happens. If you’re unsure of who to choose, Olivia Lauren is it.”

“Working with Erin Avery (The VenList) was more than a dream - she is a dream maker, fantasy creator, and one of the most organized people we’ve ever worked with. There honestly aren't words that capture the depth of our appreciation for her work. She took us through the whole journey as our virtual planner, guided us through the panic moments, saw the potential in our vision, and as our Day-Of Coordinator ensured we have the most magical wedding we could have ever dreamed up. She respected our budget, never wanted us to compromise on our vision, found vendors who could bring that vision to life, and made us feel like family the entire experience. Erin brings a profound attention to detail, care for us as a couple, calming spirit, and gentle smile to every person she interacts with. She wants you to have your day go smoothly, as stress free as possible, and makes sure that everything is organized, found, and done correctly. We couldn't have asked for a better person to walk us forward into married life, keeping track of every nuance, contacting every vendor, and protecting our time as we approached the biggest and happiest day of our lives. Erin is truly the best and a master at her craft. If you’re considering working with her, that very first meeting you will feel the beautiful energy and excitement she shares for what matters most to you - and she’ll make sure that your day is one you’ll never forget.”

“When we decided to host our wedding on our private land with a barn setting, I was convinced it would be a logistical nightmare. Sanjam proved me wonderfully wrong. She transformed what seemed like an impossible challenge into a seamless, magical celebration! Her expertise shone brightest in bringing our rustic venue to life. She navigated every complex detail with remarkable skill and creativity. From coordinating vendors to managing the unique challenges of an off-site barn location, she handled everything with professional grace and a lovely demeanor. We had a great experience!”

“Working with J.J. Ash Events and Designs for a Jacksonville wedding was an absolute dream. I was the cake artist, and Ashanti handled the florals. When the bride shared her vision, I immediately thought of Ashanti because I’ve worked with her before and absolutely love her work. She’s one of the rare designers who can balance creativity with realism while delivering flawless execution. For this wedding, we had to transform an inspiration photo into a glam-style red wedding design, and Ashanti absolutely delivered. The bride wanted florals showcased inside acrylic tiers for the cake—a unique and challenging concept. These acrylic tiers had to be sourced from London, measured precisely, customized with Ashanti’s florals, and transported from Virginia to Florida and survive 3-4 days. Not only did the floral design make the journey, but it also held up beautifully throughout the wedding. The result? Stunning florals that tied the cake seamlessly into the overall wedding design. The bride was overjoyed, the guests were amazed, and I was blown away. Together, we created a once-in-a-lifetime piece for a deserving couple and seeing the bride’s ecstatic reaction made all the effort worth it. Ashanti’s talent speaks for itself, but what truly sets her apart is her professionalism. She’s communicative, detail-oriented, and incredibly down-to-earth. She knew exactly how to bring the vision to life and worked closely with me to ensure every detail was perfect. Honestly, I couldn’t have pulled this off without her expertise. Good on J.J. Ash for requesting reviews from vendors and guests—it’s a smart move that highlights the joy they create for couples. I’ve seen Ashanti and her team work tirelessly through weddings, sometimes staying until the very end (I’m usually there past the cake cutting, haha!). By the time the dust settles, the couple is married, their photos are stunning, and their videos capture every magical moment. Reflecting on those moments reminds me how much of a privilege it is to be part of such special events. As a vendor, I appreciated how communicative and organized Ashanti was throughout the process. She asked all the right questions, provided clear instructions, and made herself available if I needed clarification. Unfortunately, not everyone in this industry is that dependable. I’ve seen vendors drop the ball, fail to respond, or avoid accountability—but not J.J. Ash. Ashanti and her team were on top of every detail and worked to have all vendors comply and work together seamlessly. Their dedication and professionalism made this collaboration a joy, and the end result was nothing short of magical. Their results don’t lie—J.J. Ash Events and Designs truly delivers excellence. Hats off to Ashanti and her team for creating unforgettable moments for their clients. I can’t wait to work with them again! — @ButtercreamPlease • Modern wedding and celebration cakes”

Golden Hour Weddings & Events is a full-service wedding and event planning and design studio in Elkin, North Carolina, and available to travel nationwide. Whether it's a 300-guest celebration or an intimate backyard ceremony, we handle every detail so you can actually present on your day.

“Choosing Golden Hour Weddings & Events as our planner was hands down the best decision we made for our wedding. From day one, our planner took our scattered ideas and transformed them into something beautiful, all while keeping us calm and organized through the whole process. The biggest lifesaver was how she handled our reception room flip, we had a super tight window to transform our ceremony space into the dining room, and she coordinated the vendors like clockwork. She's so much more than just a planner; she's a rock under pressure and knows how to navigate every moving part of a wedding day without stressing you out. Her quick communication, helpful attitude, and availability made all the difference when obstacles came up. We honestly can't thank her enough for making our day so special.”

“Where to even begin with Balazs Events...I could not imagine my wedding day without the magic that is Parris! From our first conversation, I knew Parris was the planner for us. My husband and I reached out to several premier planners in South Carolina, but Parris stood out immediately for her lightning fast replies, genuine curiosity and interest in our vision, and her warm, friendly demeanor. Parris is a pro. Her contact list of vendors has been curated to the very best and we enjoyed listening to everyone from the florist to the caterer to the live painter all gush about how she's their favorite planner to work with. It's easy to see why. She comes to every meeting prepared with questions, a list of what she's finished since our last conversation, charts, diagrams, everything. As a Type A woman in business myself, it brought me so much joy to see her lay out a printed floor plan of the venue, detailed down to the outlets in the walls, at every meeting and watch it grow in detail as time went on. She kept us on schedule, on budget, and most importantly, STRESS FREE! Leading up to the wedding, Parris was diligent with ensuring we hit every crucial milestone and secured our vendors early. She worked in plenty of vendor discounts along the way, and made sure to incorporate every element from the big ticket items we knew we wanted from day 1 (looking at you, light up dance floor) to the last minute details we just couldn't get off our minds. My favorite thing about planning my wedding with Parris is that she let me take the reins on whatever was important to me and made everything else just...happen. So effortlessly it was like magic. I felt her constant commitment to making sure the day had my signature on it, even down to a few last minute changes I requested that she somehow brought to life. My wedding day was genuinely the happiest day of my life. Parris planned every last detail. The sheer level of detail in her complete day-of schedule is seriously reason enough to book her. If there were any issues with vendors, guests, etc., I have still not heard about them over a month later. I was completely stress free and was able to be fully present in the bliss that comes from marriage to your best friend. If you are planning a large wedding, call Parris. If you are planning a small, intimate wedding, call Parris. If you aren't sure where to start, call Parris. If you already know what you want, call Parris. She is the premier planner in Columbia, SC for a reason. She is a true professional and my only regret is that I will not get the chance to plan another wedding with her!”
