We want you to wake up the morning after your wedding and say, “that was the greatest day of my life, I wish I could do it all over again!”
WHAT OUR COUPLES ARE SAYING...
"If you need a competent, calm, and fabulous team, hire Megan! She is always on top of everything. She provides sage advice, but lets you control the day to ensure that it's exactly how you and your spouse want it to be. We had some weather issues (coming off Hurricane Nicole) and Megan was instrumental in helping us make a calm, informed decision. Megan and her team executed all the very special, small details perfectly. I could not imagine the day without her and her team!" -Mariel
Megan and her team were able to execute our vision for our North Carolina Mountain wedding with seamless joy and intention. We were an out of town couple and Megan's vast experience helped make our wedding a reality. We leaned on and learned from her in many ways. Plus, our large wedding party and large family adored the opportunity to work with her. Our wedding was infinitely better because of her! - Courtney
We hired Megan Drake and team from Elegant Events to assist with my daughters wedding on 8/26/2023 at Overlook Barn on top of Beech Mountain. Megan provided above and beyond every single thing promised and contracted for, and then some. Mountain top logistics can be a challenge and boy did they come through - experienced suggestions - detailed and thoughtful, professional execution. Wedding day was relaxing - seriously!! and beautiful - things ran like a top. Megan and team even bustled Cassie's dress for cocktail hour and reception (who knows where I was). Highest of recommendations for Elegant Events and Megan Drake. Almost (almost), wish I had another wedding to plan. - Sharon
