Premier Party Planners - Raleigh, North Carolina

We met Tara early on in our wedding planning journey. Neither of us had attended many weddings or knew anything about planning one, but Tara quickly made sure to provide the support and resources we needed for our planning process.

As the big day got closer, Tara provided even more support and made sure that we had every detail taken care of before the wedding day. She handled all of the communications with our vendors, which took a LOT of the stress off of us and allowed us to focus solely on ourselves during the week of the wedding.

Our wedding day was SO perfect and all of our guests were so impressed with how smoothly the evening flowed.

Would highly recommend Premier Party Planners to anyone!

If you want to work with a day of wedding planner that you will be so confident in, you won’t have to worry about anything on your wedding day, then book Premier Party Planners! From the start, we knew Nicole was the perfect wedding planner for us, as she came highly recommended by other wedding professionals. During our initial consultation, she was warm, welcoming, and more than willing to answer all our questions, making us feel immediately at ease before booking.

Throughout the planning process, Nicole went above and beyond: she provided fantastic vendor recommendations, helped us select rentals while staying within our budget, and worked closely with our other vendors to make sure every detail was considered. She also offered us an inventory of wedding day items we were able to borrow from her, saving us money, including a card box, picture frames, table numbers, a cake stand, and a cake knife and server.

For wedding day coordination, Nicole stepped in two months before our event date, starting with an incredibly thorough questionnaire to capture all the specifics. She asked thoughtful questions to ensure she fully understood our plans, even helping us think through details we hadn’t fully considered. She communicated directly with our vendors, giving us the freedom to focus on other final tasks in the weeks leading up to our wedding day. During our final vendor meeting, she came fully prepared, ensuring every last detail was confirmed.

Before the wedding, Nicole took the time to create a detailed itinerary, communicated it to our family and wedding party, and fielded all their questions, freeing us from any last-minute coordination.

Before our rehearsal she met with us to go through all our decorations to ensure everything had arrived and she knew where everything was and where to place it in advance. Nicole directed our rehearsal with such organization that everyone felt clear on their roles.

On the wedding day, her presence was instantly relieving and calming. Nicole took charge, setting up our decorations, meeting with our ushers and anyone who couldn’t attend the rehearsal, working in sync with our vendors, and making sure everyone understood the timeline. With her event production throughout, it made the entire day smooth and worry-free, allowing us to be fully present and enjoy every moment.

Our guests raved about how flawlessly organized and beautifully detailed the day was, and we couldn’t agree more. Thanks to Nicole and her staff, we had a stress-free, joyful wedding experience, and we couldn’t recommend her more highly to anyone looking for a planner who will truly make their day unforgettable!

I was the photographer for a wedding that Premier Party Planners planned and coordinated. Summer was who I had the opportunity to work with and she was wonderful! She sent out a timeline with plenty of time for all vendors to feel like we were on the same page. She was open to changes that would help me accomplish my job as the photographer and helped throughout the wedding day to ensure we stayed on track. The wedding we did together was absolutely perfect and I credit the organization and time management to Premier Party Planners. I would highly recommend!

Tara was an absolute lifesaver throughout the entire wedding planning process. From the moment we started working together, she was always available to answer any questions I had, no matter how small. Her coordination with the vendors was flawless, ensuring everyone was on the same page, which really helped alleviate a lot of the stress I was feeling.

One of the things I appreciated most about Tara was how she managed to make me feel more at ease. Planning a wedding can be overwhelming, but Tara’s calm and organized approach made the experience so much more enjoyable. She also went above and beyond in helping with my family, showing incredible attention to detail and addressing any concerns with patience and care.

If you’re looking for a wedding planner who is not only professional but also genuinely cares about making your day perfect, I highly recommend Tara. She truly made our wedding day everything we hoped it would be.

We worked with Nicole with Premier Party Planners as a full-service planner for 18 months leading up to our wedding and we could not be happier with how everything turned out! Her work was absolutely invaluable. We were able to thoroughly enjoy our wedding weekend, knowing that Nicole and her team had all of the logistics and details under control. She managed a few last minute challenges with ease and we did not feel an ounce of stress during the wedding. From the very beginning, Nicole made it possible for us to plan our wedding in a way that was both organized and enjoyable, despite limited time and living in another city. We are very thankful that we found her and would highly recommend her and her team to anyone getting married in the area!

Premier Party Planners was one of the most valuable team we had the pleasure to work with for our wedding. Tara was literally our backbone throughout this process of wedding planning. We chose to do day of coordination, but from the moment we booked with her 6 months before the wedding, she was hands on since then. She is kind, patient, supportive and her main focus was us as the couple. She wanted to see us happy on our special day, so she did whatever she could to make that happen. Any time we felt stressed, she had a way of calming us down and helping us feel confident in our decisions.

She is very organized and responds super quick. As a bride, this was so helpful because there were times I needed reassurance about something in the moment and she was always available. Sometimes even at 7am. There were times that she knew what was going on with other vendors before I had a chance of telling her, she is that on top of her game! We were so impressed and grateful we had her as our coordinator. We could not recommend a wedding planner team more than Premier Party Planners. They are a strong team with so much knowledge.

Our wedding day was perfect. We have no complaints. Even with having to do our plan B rain plan, somehow it became our plan A choice the more we spoke to Tara about it. She is wonderful!We are so happy with how the day went and we didn’t have to worry about anything else, except getting married. Thank you so much Tara ❤️

As a wedding photographer I know the importance of my couples having a strong planning team, and that's exactly what you get with premier party planners. I have worked with Tara and Nicole, both of these ladies are incredible! They care so much about the couple and go above and beyond, they also take great care of their vendors! So lucky to get to work alongside this dream team!

Easy to work with and professional! Premier Party Planner Nicole provided us, a wedding vendor, with clear communication and logistical details prior to our clients' wedding at The Maxwell. Couples will love working with an experienced, compassionate, and expert planner like her! We highly recommend working with a professional planner and PPP is a top-notch company for Carolina brides.
