Southern Skies Events

Offers 3 services
Starts at $2,850
Serves Aberdeen, MD for additional fees

My name is Jen and I'm the owner of Southern Skies. The name comes from my love of seeing the NC stars on a clear night with its calmness and unfiltered beauty. I've been planning events since I was 16 and been planning professionally since 2014. My goal for Southern Skies is to plan beautiful weddings for amazing couples, help take their stress away and do it with kindness. I'm a true believer that love is love and life is a celebration that always calls for a glass of bubbly! When I'm not planning weddings, you can find me at my laptop with a glass of red wine, brunching with friends or exploring the world.

“We found Southern Skies through a friend’s recommendation and we couldn’t have been happier. We worked with Jen and her assistant Laura. They designed a beautiful wedding full of personal details that we never would have thought of - like having a gelato cart for dessert as a nod to Rome, where we met. Jen was very communicative throughout the entire planning process with e-mail updates, answering our questions, and having virtual and in-person meetings. We were planning remotely and could not have pulled this off without Jen and her team. They helped connect us with our fantastic team of vendors, many of whom we probably would not have found without their help. Jen’s thorough planning and hard work made the actual wedding day stress-free and absolutely perfect. We would highly recommend using Southern Skies!”

When I got married right after COVID, we had a few guests drop, and she would work with me to make sure I got the most bang for my buck. She always reached out if there was any update or change, and was like a true friend by my side. There is no one else I would rather have planning my wedding. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”

My relationship with my clients is always like a new friendship. Whether you like to email, call, text, meet in person and grab a drink or coffee, I'm here for you. As soon as we book, you will be comforted knowing I'm already planning all of those little details and will keep you updated along the way! Not to mention, I only take ONE wedding or event a week so this ensures your event is my main focus and we can spend those last days finalizing all details.

“Heather from Heather Hagin Events is the best! Do not let the small review count influence your decision in booking her for your wedding! My husband and I did a good amount of research when looking for our wedding day coordinator and knew the minute we got off our initial zoom call with Heather that she was the one! She is such a warm and genuine person and made our wedding run perfectly! Heather was also so communicative with us (quick with replies!), and seamlessly handled all of the vendor coordinating for the day of our wedding. She also offered to join us for our food and cake tasting to be a 'fly on the wall' and take notes during the meetings so we could be fully present. A small detail, but it felt like she was going above and beyond as just our wedding day coordinator. I sought Heather's advice many times throughout the wedding planning process and she was so quick to get back to me with her unbiased opinion allowing me to really rely on her for support through the months leading up to the wedding. The day of our wedding went perfectly. If anything went wrong, we didn't know about it! I dumped a lot of decor / signage /etc. on Heather the day before the wedding and she did a perfect job setting everything up exactly as I envisioned! We couldn't recommend Heather enough!”

“We hired Alexis's team to be the day-of coordinator for our wedding reception and are so pleased that we did. She was helpful in making suggestions, decisions and changes and coordinating with various vendors when confusion came up. It was a huge relief to know that she would be the one to expertly handle those last minute issues, and she was able to solve several of those issues (unsurprisingly, I made a few mistakes). Our wedding was small and casual, and despite her usual role running highly produced weddings, she was supportive, encouraging, and flexible to roll with our vision. A week before when a couple of unexpected issues came up, Alexis met with me at the venue over a drink to talk things through again and provided authentic support that turned around my whole energy about it all. Her team member Nicole was our onsite coordinator and she took my materials and impeccably delivered on the look and setup at the venue. It was a huge value to have someone prepared to listen to what our vision was and then make some of the last decisions and judgment calls to get it there -- because my husband and I are decidedly NOT event professionals. Thanks Alexis and Nicole for making sure we didn't have to manage details on the day of the wedding and for your support in the weeks ahead of it!!!”

We take a customized approach in planning/coordinating each wedding. Our goal is to incorporate your personality, style, and vision into the wedding design to make your dreams come true! This is achieved by taking time with each of our clients to get to know their style, likes and even dislikes.

“I cannot emphasize enough how grateful I am that I hired Dora to be our Day-Of Coordinator. It was by far the best money we spent on the entire wedding. It was such a relief to have her help during the final stretch (we hired her about 1 month before the wedding) and we wish we would have started working with her sooner. She was organized, knowledgeable, and professional. We were originally supposed to have our wedding under an outdoor pavilion, but there was a tornado warning that day and the pavilion flooded. The venue coordinator decided that we would be moving up the hill to their indoor space that luckily wasn’t being rented at the same time. Dora was able to manage all our other vendors and get our décor up the hill during a crazy storm. With only a few hours’ notice, she recreated my vision in a room that I had only seen once and had decided against almost immediately. The wedding flowed as if we had planned for this outcome the whole time and Dora kept her cool despite everything. I truly don’t know what we would have done without her. We were so thrilled with the result and having someone I could trust to iron out the many issues we encountered was invaluable”
