Classical Charleston was so lovely to work with. They had a great selection of songs to choose from, including more modern ones! They also were able to learn a new piece and worked with my bridesmaid who sung the song as they accompanied her. They were incredibly easy to work with, flexible with our requests, and helped to make our big day a success! I highly recommend Classical Charleston, you won’t be disappointed! More...

AMAZING! They played at my out wedding two months ago, and it was perfect! They were willing to work with my song choices, asked questions to ensure that the music was exactly what I wanted, and honestly sounded wonderful.

We hired Ooh! for full service planning since I live in NYC and my wedding was in Charleston, SC. They were excellent, detail-oriented, and personal from the very first phone call where I discussed my ideas for the wedding to the actual day. Our coordinator, Shea, was the absolute best. In addition to being so kind and friendly, she made me feel completely at ease planning from afar. She was responsive, reliable, and navigated any issue or problem that arose quickly and painlessly. She provided guidance in a way that helped me create an atmosphere for the wedding even better than I could have hoped for. While the weather for our event was not as expected (upper 30s and rainy), she was able to improvise and talk my family and I through all our options in a way that we felt calm and relaxed the whole time. I truly cannot recommend Ooh! and Shea highly enough! More...

I’m very happy I chose Ooh Events for my wedding this past October. Emily was my coordinator and she was fantastic. She was always responsive, reliable, and very detail oriented. She was so helpful at wrapping up all the fine details of things from the day of timeline to the last minute group transportation we needed. At the beginning she was able to offer suggestions and recommendations which all proved to be helpful for us especially since we were planning a wedding from a different state. Emily always made herself available when we needed it and was extremely professional. My wedding day was stress free thanks to Emily and her assistant. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to hire a wedding coordinator! More...

We asked Andrew Mille to ensemble a quartet and soloist to perform for our daughter’s wedding ceremony. We chose selections from his online repertoire and requested the soloist, Suzanne Fleming Atwood, to sing two songs during the ceremony. It was a totally angelic experience. He and his fellow musicians played a graceful prelude as friends gathered, accompanied the soloist and joyfully processed our friends and family out of the church. The music was perfect and met every one of our expectations. Even the most steely-eyed attendee was gripped by the beauty of Suzanne’s voice as she sang the Lord’s Prayer a capella. As the father of the bride, I would have paid for a ticket to hear them play. Thank you Andrew for making the day more beautiful for the bride and groom.Joseph McDonnellSummerville SC More...

My husband and I are so thankful for Emily Parham and her team and everything you did for us both leading up to our wedding but also during the wedding. The weather presented what seemed like it would be insurmountable challenges but Emily's team rose to the occasion and made it work in our favor. We were truly impressed with Emily's ability to not only adapt but also make sure that there was zero stress on our wedding day. We had such a tremendous time at our wedding and we left Charleston wondering why other people always say wedding planning and the day of are so stressful. We feel like the last 18 months have gone by so smoothly and we have never really worried about any of it. Seeing the venue and watching our friends and family having the time of their lives celebrating us, we could not be happier with our decision to choose Ooh! Events and specifically choose Emily as our planner and coordinator. Emily Parham, you are AMAZING! More...

My Wife and I got married at the William Aiken House in Charleston, SC over memorial day weekend and could not have done it without Emily Parham at ooh events. She was absolutely incredible to work with from start to finish and was always extremely thoughtful of all our needs. Her creativity working with my wife's vision turned out to be absolutely stunning on our wedding day. Leading up to the wedding and on the day of the wedding, there was never anything we felt like we had to worry about with Emily and ooh events at the wheel. People are still raving over a month later about how beautiful all the decorations were and how smooth the whole night went. That is a huge testament to the wedding planning abilities and all the décor ooh events has to offer. At the end of the day Emily is your employee but by the end of it, she feels like a friend who wants to see your special day be everything and more. I would highly recommend ooh events to anyone and if you have Emily or anyone near her abilities and personality, you are in great hands. More...

Ooh Events and Emily Parham made our wedding a completely stress free experience. All the girls there have incredible taste and I felt 100% comfortable with Emily. I knew she would handle everything just as I would. The team at Ooh Events was hyper-organized, well connected in the industry, and allowed me to be as hands-on (or off) as I wanted. They have the largest selection of rentals and flowers and were so accommodating to any budget concerns I had. Someone once told me: "You should pick the planner you feel is your best friend--someone you can cry in front of, laugh with, and tell anything to." And Emily was just that. They executed our wedding perfectly and made it an absolute dream. Even my other vendors commented on what an excellent job they did. Can't thank Emily and the rest of the team enough. More...

Words fail to truly express our gratitude to Shea and Emily during the planning of our daughter’s wedding. Since we are not from Charleston but chose it as the wedding destination, we knew we needed someone who had the experience and know how to navigate the particulars of the wedding. From beginning to the end of planning, Shea and Emily made us feel comfortable and confident with the planning process. Ooh Events warehouse is a dream to walk through and there is something for every taste and design. We have been flooded with messages, calls and texts from guests who said this is by far the best wedding and reception they have ever attended. For that, I thank Ooh Events and most importantly Shea and Emily! More...

Where do I even start! First let me start by saying our venue required a wedding planner that was not a guest. When I heard this I was disappointed as I thought I could do it all myself. That being said I am beyond THRILLED they required this and could not have done it without Erin from Ooh Events. From the start the process was so fun and exciting. Erin was so easy to talk to and understood my vision from day 1. We are from Boston and got married in Charleston and it was so helpful to have someone in the area to help us plan. As we couldn't meet in person often we did most of the planning via phone/email and it was seamless. The thing that really took Ooh Events to the next level was their amazing warehouse full of things to rent. It seems silly to buy things (decorations etc) that you will only use once and then not know what to do with them post wedding. The warehouse and rentals took all of this stress away. They had so many cool things to pick from that made our wedding really unique. Not to mention it was great to get the linens etc all from the same place and not have to deal with multiple vendors. I love being organized and Erin took that to the next level. Having a timeline planned out to the minute for our wedding day made everything run flawlessly. We felt like a queen and king on our wedding day. Erin was always one step ahead of me, even when it came to needing a glass of champagne. It was truly 5 star service, from making us each a plate of food, to sewing my dress back together when the strap popped off I cannot say enough good things!! I felt my only job on our wedding day was to relax and have fun and without Erin and Ooh Events this would not have been possible. Some of the vendors I barely even spoke with and they just showed up and did their job perfectly all thanks to Erin. Looking back I could not imagine our wedding without a planner. And If you are looking for a planner look no further. Ooh Events and Erin exceeded all of my expectations. Not only did we have the wedding of our dreams but we gained a friend in Erin who we hope to keep in touch with forever. I cannot say enough good things. Xo More...

I highly recommend hiring Classical Charleston for your ceremony (or anything else for that matter)! I went into wedding planning knowing exactly what I wanted, and had many specifics I "had to have". I was unsure if anyone would be able or willing to make my visions for ceremony music come to life, and then we found Classical Charleston! Extremely professional, responsive, and accommodating. I was able to have such personal songs played at my ceremony on strings! I was in shock when I was waiting to walk down the aisle on the side lawn of Boone Hall and heard them start to play my wedding party music. I couldn't help springing up and down next to my Dad going "oh my gosh, oh my gosh, IT SOUNDS SO GOOD! It's perfect!!!!! Everything I hoped for!" I really cannot put into words how personal and special Classical Charleston made our ceremony. It was the best day of our lives, and I am so happy that Classical Charleston was part of it!
