Ooh Events offers wonderfully personalized, individual attention. Meredith Nicholson recently designed our save the dates pieces, and they were even more perfect for our theme and taste than I could have hoped. She listened to us describe our vision for our wedding weekend, and created a piece that will set the perfect tone for our Lowcountry weekend together. Meredith was organized, timely, and accommodating in her communication and proof schedule.

My wedding was effortlessly and beautifully handled by Ooh Events and Out of Hand. The rentals were on time and met my specifications perfectly, and the florals were simply STUNNING!!! Isabel, who worked with me on my event, was helpful, available, and sweet. I would highly recommend using them for your special event!!!!!

As mother of the bride I very involved in the wedding. My daughter and I interviewed 4 florists. We made up our minds about 3 mins into the interview. They knew exactly what we wanted and made it all very easy and STRESS FREE. Terri Tezza was our contact person and event planner. She not only met our expectations but far far exceded them. We could not have done it without her help. The floral arrangements were beautiful, unique. They also did lighting for us and it was , and I hate to use this word because its so overused but Terri and OOevents were truely amazing. we are hard to please people and they more than pleased us.

The flowers and décor services OOH provided for our daughter’s December 3rd wedding were outstanding. Beth and Isabel created beautiful bouquets with a variety of flowers and greenery that reflected the range of colors my daughter wanted. The bridal bouquet was so stunning I took several pictures of it the day after the wedding! Everyone commented on the gorgeous arrangements for the reception especially the use of sliced lemons and oranges in the vases. Our initial contract was just for floral services but closer to the wedding day we realized we needed assistance setting up several décor items my daughter had for the reception venue, as well as to rent some last minute items like a cake stand and mirrors. The staff always responded quickly to our questions and ideas for decor. Isabel set up the decorations just as we wanted and after the reception she re-packed everything neatly and quickly for us to pick up. If you use Out of Hand for florals and décor for your wedding (or any event), you can relax and be 100% assured you will have lush, beautiful arrangements and top quality service.

What a fantastic experience working with Kathryn Aydlett. She went above and beyond to help with our son's wedding and reception. She was very professional, but personal in her approach and never seemed to get upset when things did not go as planned. She was there most of the day and long after the wedding was over and made the night so much easier!
I would highly recommend Ooh! Events and especially Kathryn for your next event!

As a business owner of a company for more than 25 years, planning your wedding is another expertise in and of itself. Leave it to the experts, which Ooh Events are the best! Terri was perfect, flawless in the precision of the wedding, nothing was missed and it was outstanding in every way-our dream wedding, and not the first, but felt like the first time.

If only we could add LOVEABILITY to the categories for which OOH!Events deserves a five-star rating! From the moment my mom and I first sat down with each Lisa, Terri & Jerri, we not only discovered that our chemistry was immediate, we also discovered the crew with whom we were sharing our (often times, overwhelming) journey of planning delivered the perfect dose of PASSION for every detail we were inspired to include! As a bride, I trusted the OOH team more than any other vendor we hired for our special day. Each session of planning spawned constructive suggestions, always mindful of my perspective, which gave me confidence that our entire wedding weekend would be undoubtedly unique to our style. I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to plan a wedding with this group. They helped us create a truly outstanding event! ~ Rebekah Johnson Dollar

My husband and I planned a unique event in leu of a private reception following our ceremony. We produced an art event featuring over 30 artists in which donations and artwork sales benefitted the American Heart Association. Our event coordinator, Kathryn Aydlett was beyond resourceful and creative to help make our event a success. She was extremely responsive to questions we had and even helped with the installation of the art exhibit until the wee hours of the morning. That's commitment and going above and beyond! We highly recommend her and Ooh! Events for any event no matter how out of the box it may be!

We were very fortunate to have Ooh! Events coordinate our daughter's recent wedding, after she received a recommendation. Kathryn Aydlett was the wedding coordinator, and did a more than excellent job. Leading up to the wedding, this included weekly status conference calls with our daughter and participation at the food tasting and selection. Kathryn arrived a day prior to the wedding, led the rehearsal, and insured that all the setup was handled appropriately (including having touch-up paint applied to benches she had delivered!) Her activities on the wedding day started in the early morning and lasted until the event was over late that evening and all the vendors had cleaned up and left. Before and during the wedding, she was calm, sweet and cheerful, but effective in assuring everyone knew what and when program activities would occur and were ready to go, and firm in taking care of some potential problems quickly and efficiently. As a result, the entire event ran very smoothly. We never had to worry about anything during the weekend, which helped us relax and celebrate.
From my daughter: Working with Kathryn was like working along side my best friend. She is extremely thoughtful, organized and on top of everything - from the planning to the actual wedding, it was extreme pleasure to work with her. With her expertise, our wedding ran smoothly and no one had to worry about a thing. I would highly recommend Kathryn and all the staff at Ooh! Events for any event.

Out of Hand Florist was Fantastic! The Flowers were exceptional! I dealt with Caroline for my wedding and she was very helpful and timely with her correspondence. During the hecticness of wedding day, I completely forgot about the floral being delivered and when the flowers arrived, they were stunning. Everyone commented on them! All the arrangements at the wedding were remarkable. I would recommend them highly for any event!

Ooh Events and Out of Hand were absolutely wonderful! My daughter's wedding was beautiful! Working with Beth, our florist, was fantastic. The flowers were exactly what my daughter wanted! The reception venue was perfect as well. The furniture rentals outside just made everything perfect. Kathryn, our wedding coordinator, was the BEST!! She was on top of everything the day of the wedding. The entire day went accordig to plan. We could relax and enjoy the festivites knowing Kathryn was there. I would highly recommend Ooh Events/Out of Hand. You will be very happy!!!!

If you are planning a wedding, run don't walk to Ooh Events. I cannot say enough about how professional and creative this team was from start to finish. I was trying to plan my wedding long-distance and once Ooh Events came onboard it made the whole process seamless. From the planning to implementation these women treated us as part of their family and it showed in the finished product. Ooh Events gave me the wedding of my dreams!

This past weekend I had the pleasure of photographing a wedding that Kathryn Aydlett and her team at ooh! events coordinated and was extraordinarily moved by her care. Wedding coordinators may hope-work to be thorough and efficient leaders, creative and idea-oriented visionaries, knowledgeable go-to mediators, quick and smart solvers, as well as attentive and organized behind-the-scenes movers of celebrations. Kathryn is all of that, greatly and positively. What was striking about her, and what compels me to write this note, was her calming care, her tender voice of assurance, and her movement around the day to make certain all involved felt peaceful and elated to be a part of the vision: from the bride's peace to the caterer's smiles, I could sense the fruit of her hard work, her appreciation, and her attention. She is the perfect combination of strength and grace, sweet smiles and nurturing mindfulness, which makes her exceptional to lead on a gigantic day with an entire production of inspirational beauty to unfold for a wonderfully happy bride and groom and their Loved Ones. I give Kathryn and her team at ooh! events my highest recommendation and will favor them to future brides. May God bless you, Katherine, and all those at ooh! events!

I was very pleased with my first experience using Ooh Events. The event planner was professional, creative and fun to work with. I have received a ton of compliments on our event. They added so many unique touches that I would have never thought of. I can't say enough about the flowers. One of a kind! thanks!

My husband and I were married on Easter weekend (April 23rd) in Mt. Pleasant, SC and we could not be happier with Ooh! Events. We live in Nashville and planned a destination wedding to South Carolina from 8 hours away. We found Ooh! Events randomly while driving around the area and after seeing their store and portfolio books, we hired them immediately. Caroline was always extremely easy to get in touch with, always emailing right back to me, their rentals and decor are absolutely stunning, and using them to coordinate the day-of was the best decision I made the entire wedding process. Kathryn thought of the things that I never would have dreamed of, coordinated everyone down to the minute, never hesitated when there was something that didnt go to plan, and took all of the pressure away from me day of. She was truly my lifesaver. We rented out the Margarita and Flamingo beach houes in the Isle of Palms for our wedding party for the weekend (they are 4 houses apart) and Ooh Events worked with us to deliver the flowers, coordinate with the photographer, etc. I would absolutely use Ooh! Events again and would highly recommend them to any brides who need help planning a Charleston wedding. They are simply the best!

If you are doing a destination wedding in Charleston, Ooh Events is a must! We are in Seattle, the bride and groom were in NC ,so don't know what we would've done without Ooh and the hard work of Isabel and Amanda Halsey Lewis of Southern Chic weddings. They scouted out the venue for us, planned the best setup and flow for guests. They came the day of the wedding and set up in a professional manner. Helped repair a Sweet Potato Wedding cake that was brought from NC (with flowers). The flowers were stunning! Coral/Pink peonies, parrot tuliips,hypernium(?) berries. Only wish we would've planned to have the brides bouquet preserved or dried, that's how beautiful it was. Love, love, love my MOB wrist corsage was on a vintage bracelet and I cherish it and know the mother of the groom does as well. The wedding was in a private home and their breakdown was as unobtrusive and professional as their setup. I highly recommed Ooh to any brides looking to do a destination wedding.

This wedding was held on March 5, 2011 in Awendaw and we parents lived in Newberry and Columbia, so having a wedding planner was a life-saver. From the very beginning, Ooh was right there with us. We had 3 meetings and numerous emails and phone calls, but everything went beautifully. They did not supply the flowers, but the decor was outstanding. All decisions were supported by Terri Tezza and Lisa Thomas and every detail was carried out. The rental equipment was set up and decorated beforehand and there were no hitches. Terri was the first to arrive at the pavilion and two of their associates were the last to leave. They were a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend Ooh Events for any kind of festivity.

A HUGE thank you to Lisa Thomas and everyone at Out of Hand that helped with the flowers for our Edisto wedding. They were beautiful! They really did a great job and were thorough on very short notice. (I ended up switching florists about a month or two prior to wedding; Lisa had a spreadsheet with descriptions and prices to me within 24 hrs. of contacting her!) The centerpieces matched our grey and pink linens wonderfully as did the ceremony bouquets and flower petals with the fucshia chair ties.
Thanks again. Your team is awesome!

Kathryn Aydlett did a spectacular job on my daughter's wedding. Her attention to detail, support and hard work let us know that we were working with a real professional! Even with the weather uncertainties, and last minute changes to the set up, Kathryn was calm and organized. She took the initiative to make decisions which worked perfectly and flawlessly from my perspective. The flowers were absolutely beautiful and I definately recommend
Kathryn and Ooh!Events for your wedding needs.
