Emily – Bride (Wedding: October 2021)
The BEST Coordinator in Charleston
I can not express enough how amazing Engaging Events was to work with for my Wedding in October, 2021! We did a full service coordination and they did not miss a single thing. During the planning process, as the bride I was asked by multiple people how I was feeling while planning and if I was stressed. My answer every time was no, the process was seamless for us, even as an out of state bride. That is all credited to Engaging Events amazing team. It was truly the most magical day, with the most amazing vendors. Highly recommend, you will not regret it!

Choose Engaging Events – You won’t be disappointed
Caroline was an absolute DREAM wedding coordinator. Choosing to have a destination wedding 7 hours away from home was a bit unnerving. But the first time I spoke with Caroline, she won my heart. Even when we thought we might not be able to work together (due to availability), she still worked hard to secure a location for me! From the beginning, Caroline was organized, thoughtful, and creative. She has a wealth of knowledge, and often provided alternatives when we needed fresh perspective. She provided amazing vendors for us to choose from as well. Each vendor we spoke with raved about Caroline, and they were 100% correct! She was with us every step of the way, and even when plans fell through she would jump into high gear to made sure the issue we resolved quickly. It’s cliché, but our wedding day was literally the BEST DAY EVER – and that would never have happed without Caroline. While I only saw Caroline a few times on the big day, she was working furioulsly behind the scenes to make sure everything went smoothly. She even made sure the newlyweds were able to eat at their own wedding! Many of my guests commented on how wonderful she was, and how hard she worked. My maid of honor was astounded at how Caroline was able to direct the chaos with love, compassion and a smile!
Cindy was great as well – her vision for flowers is exquisite. She took a few thoughts about our life, a few pictures from Pinterest and executed a beautiful display for our flowers!
I could go on forever – but trust me, you will not regret choosing Engaging Events!

Perfect Wedding!!!
Cindy, Caroline and their team were absolutely great and crucial to our wedding looking so beautiful and running smoothly. Caroline was always quick to respond back to communications. Caroline also helped with our stationary and welcome boxes and they turned out amazing, highly recommend letting the team help coordinate some of your wedding needs if you aren’t using them as a full time planner. The flowers Cindy picked out were just stunning and better than I ever imagined. I also highly recommend seeing a sample of the linens and florals before the wedding day. I was hesitant but it turned out to be so worth it, as we were able to make changes. The team was running around the entire day of the wedding making sure everything was running on time and checking in on the Bride and Groom. Overall great experience, and the wedding was just perfect!
Brittani– Bride (Wedding: August 2021)
Amazing!!!
I can’t even tell you how amazing Cindy and her team are! We live in Boston, but were getting married in Charleston and Cindy made planning a wedding from out of state a breeze. After talking to her on the phone when we were looking for a planner we knew she was going to be amazing. Her and her team are so kind, professional, experienced, and a dream to work with. They totally understood our vision and our wedding was unbelievably beautiful and perfect – I’m still in awe of how everything turned out! I procrastinate and am extremely indecisive, but Cindy kept me on track during all of the wedding planning. She was so helpful in deciding on details and knew exactly what recommendations to make. Cindy has so much experience and she didn’t miss a detail anywhere. I was so thankful for her and her team during our wedding weekend because my husband and I did not have to worry about a thing which allowed us to just enjoy the weekend with our friends and family. They even delivered welcome boxes to guests’ AirBnB’s if they were not staying in the hotel blocks! So many of our guests told us that our wedding was the best/most beautiful wedding they had been to and that is truly all thanks to Cindy and her team. We are so happy we worked with Engaging Events and can’t recommend them enough!
Alexis – Bride (Wedding: June 2021)
Amazing Service!
We could not recommend Cindy and her team more! She was so helpful throughout the whole process. She was especially helpful for the small details which I would have missed. The day of the wedding could not have been smoother and I know that was a large part because of Cindy’s hard work! Excellent communication as well.

Best planners in Charleston
We hired Caroline Bean at Engaging Events after having changed our original wedding planner due because we had to postpone our original wedding date because of Covid. I have experience working with another Charleston-based planner and in the process, I’ve interviewed close to a dozen planners in the area. Engaging Events (EE), in my opinion, are THE best. I highly recommend working with Caroline. She is so organized and thinks of absolutely everything. My original planner basically sent us a PDF with recommended vendors and told me to chose some. She also always first suggested the most expensive vendors (bands, etc). Caroline with EE never did that. She worked with me to choose vendors and made helpful suggestions based on price and style. EE does their own flowers in house, which is actually amazing. They give you a great rate on florals and you don’t have to worry about interviewing and finding a florist you like. My original florist for the 2020 wedding quoted us over double what we ended up paying for our 2021 wedding with EE. And the flowers were so perfect. I wouldn’t have changed a thing!
EE worked with us to design a beautiful theme for the wedding and table design. It came out even better than I had imagined. They thought of every detail.
On the day-of, they were so helpful and made sure that everything went accordingly to plan. I didn’t have to worry because I knew they were on top of everything.
Honestly, having worked with a more expensive and less competent planner in the past, I’m actually grateful that our wedding was postponed due to Covid. Thanks to our postponement, we ended up working with Engaging Events, and our wedding turned out to be better than I could have imagined AND we saved money in the process. They are really outstanding – go with Caroline at Engaging Events!!
Sarah – Bride (Wedding: May 2021)
Absolutely Amazing!
We loved working with Engaging Events for our wedding!! Truly we do not have enough good things to say. Cindy helped bring our floral and design visions to life with her ability to decipher my abstract thoughts and random pinterest pins and Caroline kept our wedding plans on track with humor and grace despite being derailed by a global pandemic! Throughout the entire process we always looked forward to our meetings with Engaging Events – they kept us sane, focused and excited for our big day. On our wedding day, we received so many compliments from guests on our florals and the overall vibe that Cindy created. Our guests were in awe of how professional and personable Caroline was – in addition to how she kept the entire day running so smoothly! We could not have had a more perfect experience or wedding day!
Victoria – Bride (Wedding: May 2021)
Amazing Experience
Caroline and Cindy are simply the best in Charleston! Friendly, patient, and extremely organized, they perfectly executed my husband and I’s vision for our big day. As a bride who was the first of my family and friends to wed, I was very intimidated by the process of planning. Engaging Events eliminated all of the stress with their expertise and their genuine support leading up to the wedding. Our day was beautiful and many guests have told us that it was the most gorgeous wedding that they have ever attended. Thank you Caroline and Cindy!
Sam – Groom (Wedding: April 2021)
Engaging Events – Highly Recommend!!!
Caroline & Cindy at Engaging Events were exceptional. They partnered with us from the very beginning to bring our vision to reality. The service was white glove from day one and on top of it all they helped us navigate the challenging and stressful postponement caused by the pandemic. When the day finally came it went absolutely perfectly, without a single issue to speak of to which we give them all the credit. We would highly recommend Engaging Events for anyone planning a wedding in the area. They’re great people to work with and did a tremendous job.

Engaging Events MADE Our Wedding!
Once our venue had been chosen and reserved, I needed to hire a wedding coordinator and my husband knew JUST the one! Caroline Bean, a family friend through church who works at Engaging Events 🙂 The first time I called their office and asked to speak to Caroline, she was available and could not wait to help us plan our special day! Even in the midst of a global pandemic where social distancing and mask wearing had been required, Engaging Events jumped right in to help us make a plan – AND a back-up plan. Between meetings, phone calls and emails, both Caroline and Cindy were available and responsive. Both ladies are VERY ORGANIZED, they and their team pay attention to detail and MOST IMPORTANT they CARE about meeting the wants and needs of each and every bride and groom! Our wedding reception at Harborside East in Mount Pleasant, SC was more beautiful than I had imagined! The bouquets and floral arrangements took my breath away! Thank you, Engaging Events, for all of your hard work – the celebration of our marriage came together PERFECTLY!
