Everlasting Moments 
Rating: 4.9 (7 reviews)
  • Offers 7 services
  • Starts at $1,400
  • Serves Garner, NC

I've always had a deep passion for organizing and planning which is why I chose to start my own Event Planning business. I knew at a young age being a Special Events/Wedding Planner is a dream I wanted to pursue.

“We met Jackie and Madison at the NC Bridal and Wedding Expo in Raleigh in 2023. My daughter's wedding day was November of this year, 2024. From the very moment we met them, it was 100% authenticity, practicality, a smart approach, kindness, and just enough edge required to pull off an event of such importance. As we selected them and continued our journey together, the level of communication, organization, attention to detail, and their ability to advocate with professionalism were ever-present as their creative ideas just flowed with each circumstance we encountered. Jackie and Madison were made for planning with families/individuals in preparing and experiencing the activities associated with one of the most important decisions ever made in life...marriage. Jackie was resourceful, stayed connected, guided along the way, and on the days of the rehearsal and of the wedding, both she and Madison worked tirelessly to create beautiful, "everlasting moments" for my daughter and her new husband to remember. They filtered the obstacles, and stood in the gap to ensure the wishes and dreams of the bride and groom for that day were met. That was the most important. There is so much more we could say to endorse Everlasting Moments, but you can clearly read that hiring Jackie and Madison to plan and see through to the success of your wedding or any event is an investment worth making, as they invest in you! They are now family!”

Your wedding is likely the biggest formal event you will plan in your life and can often be overwhelming when it comes to knowing proper etiquette. We have spent years studying wedding do’s and don’ts and we are here to give you answers to every question like “how do I address a Doctor’s invitation?” or “how do I talk to my soon to be mother-in-law about what to wear to the wedding?” We are here to hold your hand through it all.

“Tiffany was so wonderful to work with! I was so impressed with how much she helped me and was willing to do for me. She was so organized and experienced, so nothing was left to chance. She knew every detail of the wedding, so on the day she knew everything about it and was able to execute flawlessly. If anything went wrong, I still don’t know about it. She was so great at communicating and keeping everything on track leading up to the wedding. The value and ease of mind she provided to this stressful time was priceless. I am so thankful for everything she did for us and how detailed everything was. She followed up with all vendors and created the most spectacular timeline that left no open questions.”

Carolina Event Masters

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.”

“Words can't express how amazing Bre was to work with! Before I found Bre I was overwhelmed with ever aspect of wedding planning - I didn't even know where to start when it came to catering, flowers, signage, timelines, etc. Not only did she help this unorganized bride with planning an entire wedding, but she provided such comfort and ease for the actual wedding day. I didn't have to worry about how anything looked or how the "flow" of events would work because Bre was on top of it all.

“Jasmine and Shayla were the wedding coordinators of our dreams! Salt & Light's month-of coordination package was perfect for our Durham wedding, which we planned in 8 months (March to November). After picking a venue, booking vendors, ordering décor and invitations, and making so many other choices over the course of the previous 7 months, it was amazing to have these two ladies come in right as we were hitting our wall of exhaustion and overwhelm in the final month before our big day. Putting together a wedding is a sprawling project with so many little details involved, and it can be easy for things to slip through the cracks, even for meticulous/anxious planners like me! Thank goodness for Shayla and Jasmine's experience, expertise, and attention to fine points--they had their eyes on every little thing, and it was so comforting to us to know the two of them had it covered so we didn't have to worry about the small stuff. They gently guided us through making decisions we didn't even know we needed to make, and helped us think through all the moving parts of the wedding day and how the various elements of our plans worked together (this was especially crucial when conceptualizing how our various vendors' needs would weave together into one cohesive schedule). On the day of our wedding, and in the days after, we had several family members and friends comment on how wonderful our coordinators were, and what an excellent job they had done at bringing our wedding to life. In addition to their competence, confidence and professionalism, Jasmine and Shayla are also deeply kind and caring people. They were rooting for us and advocating for our needs throughout those final weeks, through our wedding day, and beyond. The two of them were genuinely invested in our story, our new marriage and our future, and their enthusiasm for making our special event come together was palpable. It was a true pleasure and a privilege to work with these ladies to make the most important day of our lives a success, and we would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone.”

If you've made it here, I'm guessing your wedding doesn't look like a Pinterest board full of blush and neutral linen. Good. A queer-led creative director, day-of coordinator, and the person who actually wants to hear about your weird, specific, beautiful vision and then make it happen without you having to manage a single vendor text on your wedding day. Here's what I do: I show up before anyone else, I run the whole day so you don't have to, and I become the wall between you and every vendor question, every logistical hiccup, and every moment that threatens to pull you out of your own wedding. You get to be present. That's the whole point.

“I've spent a bunch of times at this venue and have always had an amazing time there! I was really impressed with Brensley, the venue manager, who was really on point every instance I was there, whether working there or as a guest. Awesome place and an amazing staff!

“Working with Tova from Tova Yvents is always such a joy! As a wedding photographer, I've had the opportunity to collaborate with her, and I've always had a seamless, positive experience. She’s incredibly organized, calm under pressure, and genuinely cares about her couples and the vendor team alike. Her communication is effortless, and she has such a thoughtful, professional presence on the wedding day. Everything always runs smoothly when Tova’s involved. I always look forward to working alongside her and would recommend her in a heartbeat to any couple looking for an experienced, kind, and detail-oriented planner!”
