Snippets from Recent Love Letters

"I can't even tell you how many people told me afterwards 'that was the smoothest and best wedding I've ever attended'. I credit Melissa and her team 100%!!"

"Melissa is a true gem. From day one, we were comfortable, laughing, but also getting down to business over Zoom. She knows anything and everything and there is no dumb question you can ask her. She will become your best friend and go-to-gal."

"After COVID reschedules and a complete and total venue change, Melissa rolled with punches, gave amazing advice, and offered unparalleled support."

"Her attention to detail, calmness during wedding chaos, and warmth gave me so much piece of mind on our wedding day."

"Every day leading up to the wedding she was always there, quick responses and gave me different options to choose from. I trusted her from the moment we had our first phone call consultation."

"They gave us the ability to enjoy our day to the fullest. They gave us the gift of quiet little moments where we could take it all in, where we were able to be present and enjoy the beauty of it all. They also made sure we never had an empty glass."

"I can tell you I struggled about spending the money and I can also assure you that it’s a million percent worth it to be able to enjoy the day and not worry about a single little thing. Our wedding memories are nothing short of wonderful & that was made possible by the KTSE team!"


"They were extremely easy to work with, excellent over-communicators and I never had a worry about their ability to handle distractions and last-minute changes."

Testimonial:


"This is a resounding recommendation for Knot Too Shabby Events and to book them the day after you get engaged. Don't look elsewhere because she is worth her weight in gold and then some. They are the one and only clear choice for a wedding planner in Wilmington and the surrounding areas. From our very first meeting, we knew we wanted to work with Melissa. We're an LGBTQIA+ couple, and she has a way of immediately making you feel comfortable and that you're in great hands with her team. You can tell that she is passionate about her work, and she loves her clients. Not only that, but she has the experience, the local knowledge and connections, and her team is really just a bunch of angels sent to help ease the stresses of your wedding day. She's extremely organized and detail-oriented, and she will work with you to match the wedding you've always envisioned. You even get your own internet (portal) site to track everything you need, from your budget to your vendors, leading up to your wedding! On the day of the wedding, Melissa and her team were there, making sure we had everything we needed. Forgot something? They have you. Pizza place closes by the time your wedding ends? They got you. Unsure how the decor will get put away? They got you. Don't have a drink in your hand? They got you. I still tear up thinking about our day and the little details of how they were there every step of the way, and made us feel well taken care of. I am truly grateful to her and her excellent team of professionals. I'm telling you. If you're getting married, Melissa and KTSE is IT!"
