My love affair for all things planning, design, and organization began at an early age, and that drive and enthusiasm quickly landed me into the world of events and weddings! With over a decade of experience in the weddings and events profession and having executed 250+ successful weddings and social events, my passion for this industry and connecting with others runs deep. I like the challenge of creating authentic and meaningful celebrations that conceptualize my clients' personalities, family traditions, and distinctive tastes. As a serious organizer, I know that creating one-a-kind moments suits my meticulous and outgoing personality. I live for the hug and 'thank you' at the end of each event knowing my couples have been spoiled and well taken care of. It makes my planner's heart skip a beat!

Lover of running, hiking, horseback riding, traveling, & cooking! Brynna was born in Seattle, Washington & moved to North Carolina when she was 10. She graduated from Western Carolina University in 2017 with her Bachelor of Science in Business Administration & Law. Brynna married her high school sweetheart in 2019, with whom she is always up for an adventure! She is a dog mom to two sweet rescue pups, Luna & Dutton!

Brynna found a love & passion for wedding & event planning after having so much fun with her own wedding. So, she took a leap of faith and switched careers! 

Fun Fact: Brynna started out as a Charming Carolina bride back in 2019, went through the CC Internship Program, worked as a Production Day Assistant in 2021, and is now a lead coordinator!

The Team

Caroline is a North Carolina native and a current Wake Forest University student who loves hiking, wine and movie nights with friends, and finding new restaurants!

Growing up, Caroline successfully planned, budgeted, and designed her own parties. She had a passion for planning, staying organized, and putting smiles on people’s faces by bringing them together. Caroline soon realized that she could accomplish all three of those while working in the events industry! Now, nothing makes her happier than helping clients’ unique visions come to life and seeing them enjoy their most special day surrounded by friends and family. 

Fun Fact: Caroline began as an intern for Charming Carolina in 2021 and quickly transitioned into the role of a Production Assistant. She's drawn to elegant southern weddings and is obsessed with every detail and design of Hailey and Justin Bieber's wedding!
