Tara Skinner Events

Experiencia fantástica: Hanna Perry was our wedding planner, creative director, image consultant and coach. Her vision was inspirational and her recommendations for vendors were excellent. She listened to our values and style and translated it into something more amazing that we could have imagined. Our guests cannot stop complimenting the beauty and magic she created. Thank you Hanna and Tara Skinner Events.

Experiencia fantástica: After selecting our dream wedding location, Montage Palmetto Bluff, we knew we needed a local team to help bring our vision to life. After our first phone call with Lauren, we knew we would be in great hands with the Tara Skinner Events team. The entire process exceeded our expectations. Lauren took our elegant, timeless vision and brought it to life in the Lowcountry. She perfectly intertwined design details from our 'resort casual' welcome dinner with our elevated black-tie wedding. Throughout the process, Lauren took care of every detail—big and small—so we could enjoy planning and, more importantly, our big day. On the weekend of our wedding, Lauren and the Tara Skinner Events team ensured every vendor was on schedule, details were in place, and managed our wedding party and guests. Thanks to them, our weekend was seamless. We couldn't have asked for a better wedding planner. If you're looking for a knowledgeable team dedicated to making your wedding flawless and vision come to life, we highly recommend Tara Skinner Events.

Experiencia fantástica: We couldn't be more grateful for the incredible experience we had working with Krystal as our wedding planner. From the very beginning, she was patient, attentive, and truly committed to ensuring that our special day was exactly what we envisioned. As an event planner myself, I had high expectations, and Krystal exceeded every one of them. Her kindness and thoughtfulness throughout the planning process made everything so much easier. She was always available to listen to our ideas and concerns, offering her expert advice while respecting our wishes. Krystal worked tirelessly to bring our vision to life, and the end result was a wedding day that was beyond perfect. We couldn't have made our day so special without her, and we highly recommend Krystal to anyone looking for a planner who is not only professional but also genuinely cares about making your day as wonderful as you've always imagined.

Experiencia fantástica: I'm a photographer based in the Southeast. As you can imagine, I have lots of experience with weddings, and I've had the opportunity to work with Tara and her incredible team on several weddings. Each planner I've worked with on her team, including Tara herself, has shown dedication, thoughtfulness, gratitude and kindness throughout the planning process. This not only applies to how I've seen them care for their couples, but to their vendors and the creative team, as well. They command the day with gracefulness and attention to detail, and they are a joy to work with behind the scenes.

Experiencia fantástica: Tara Skinner Events and our lead planner Krystal were 10/10 the best thing that ever happened to our wedding planning journey. Krystal completely understood what we were looking for out of our day, put up with the hours of conversations with me and my mother - as I planned this entire wedding from a far and made it the most fun, thoughtful, incredible process. She was receptive to our budgets, provided us with the best advice but listened to the things that were important to us. She was an absolute blessing and truly miss planning the wedding day. I come from a planning background and being able to just relax on the day was the best gift Krystal could have ever given me. We always laughed during our conversations and I don't think there is anyone that could have cared more about her brides than Krystal and Tara's overall team. We are so blessed to have met and worked with Krystal - she is an angel from above. Still get emotional about how perfect the day was and that is all thanks to Krystal's expertise, guidance and care!

Experiencia fantástica: I am truly at a loss for words for how amazing it was working with Krystal and Tara Skinner Events. I started working with Krystal about 6 weeks prior to our wedding. I thought I was in a good spot and had all of my planning and vendors ready to go but I cannot believe how much Krystal helped facilitate our wedding vision those last several weeks. There were so many little details we didn’t think of and Krystal made it happen- it made our wedding that much more amazing. Krystal was EXTREMELY responsive and supportive throughout the entire process. It took so much stress off our plate. Krystal took all the responsibility and was the main contact person communicating all the final decisions to our vendors. The final weeks up to our wedding, she made sure everything was in place and no stone was left unturned. She created our floor plan, transportation plan and made an AMAZING timeline for our entire wedding weekend, she never missed a detail! Krystal and her assistant Summer’s help on our wedding day was beyond exceptional, seeing our vision and venue come together exceeded my vision and expectations times a million. I don’t think I ever saw either of them take a break, they were always making sure everything was running smoothly, they made sure my husband and I were fed and ALWAYS had a drink in our hand. Throughout the wedding weekend we had guests coming up to us saying how amazing they were. The thing that I will always remember about Krystal is how much she genuinely cared about our wedding, she always had a smile on her face and in the end she seemed more like a friend of ours, I will be forever grateful to Krystal, Summer, and Tara Skinner Events. We had the MOST amazing and fun time at our wedding and our guests are saying the same thing, we owe a lot of that to Krystal!! I wish we could do it again!

Experiencia fantástica: Tara Skinner Events and Megan White, who was our lead planner from the team, are truly INCREDIBLE. They realized my exact wedding vision to a T. It could not have been better. They are wonderful to work with, extraordinarily professional, constantly in touch and always available. I actually couldn't believe how they pulled together my vision exactly as I pictured it. My wedding was a dream! If only I could do it all over again. I am still on Cloud 9 and can't stop looking at the photos of how beautiful everything was. They recommended Steve Bales from Bold Designs for our florals and they were exceptional! Even my husband's guy friends couldn't stop talking about the flowers. I really can't say enough good things about this company. Don't even bother pricing anyone else out. They are worth every penny. They are total pros.

Experiencia fantástica: Tara Skinner and her crew deserve 10 stars, not 5! If you are looking for a wedding planner, look no further. Tara helped transform my wedding into the most magical, tasteful, fun, spectacular evening. From the planning, coordination, set up and delivery, everything was perfect. Tara made this skeptical bride into a true believer that your wedding is truly the best day ever. I am so beyond grateful for Tara's hard work and talent that went into making this day extraordinarily special. Look no further, and sign TSWE up ASAP!

Experiencia fantástica: Where do I even begin for my experience with Tara Skinner Weddings & Events. What a true pleasure and dream. To start, there is not a day that goes by where I don't think back to the most magical, perfect day of our lives. Hannah was there for every step of the way - to answer every question, talk with every vendor and guide the whole process so beautifully. She so eagerly and professionally gave her recommendations and opinions. We could not have been happier with how our day turned out. You know when you see exactly what you want your big day to look like in your head and dreams but have no idea how to get it there? Tara Skinner will get you there and more. We will forever look back and be grateful for Tara Skinner Weddings & Events and they will forever be who we recommend to any brides! A true pleasure!

Experiencia fantástica: It was an absolute pleasure working with Krystal for our wedding in May of 2021! She was remarkably organized, incredibly prompt in responding to my questions, and extremely thorough when working through the details with me. She was the best asset to my wedding vendor team and the best decision I made when starting the wedding planning process. Not only would I not have been able to plan my wedding as effectively without her feedback, but I would not have been able to fully execute the events of the wedding day itself without her. I highly recommend using Krystal and Tara Skinner Events for any of your event planning needs!!

Experiencia fantástica: I was blown away on our wedding day! Megan made my dream wedding a reality and I couldn't have been happier with how everything turned out. It was truly a magical day and I am so happy I chose to have full wedding and rehearsal services. It took the pressure off of me and my mom and we were able to enjoy the celebration! I highly recommend working with Tara and her team (we love you, Megan!) for your upcoming wedding!

Experiencia fantástica: As the Mother of the Bride my daughter and my son in law are dear to me. I wanted something special as they are truly in love and such a heartfelt couple. As we did not live in Savannah being long distance was a concern. I want to say what a fabulous experience we had and Megan was exceptional. The wedding exceeded my expectations and was more wonderful than I had even hoped. Tara and her team helped us navigate all of it with ease and confidence. When the wedding day came we had no reservations or concerns and the day was beautiful. The vendors were also exceptional. My memories are all positive and I would not change a thing. Thanks Tara and Megan for making dreams come true! Megan you are like one of our family. Thank you so much !Read Less

Experiencia fantástica: Working with Tara Skinner Wedding and Events was the best decision I made for my wedding. Krystal Zinn was a DREAM to work with. She was always so responsive and so kind and just a pleasure to interact with during the whole process. We had to push our original 2020 wedding date to September 2021 due to Covid and Krystal was invaluable through all of this. She held my hand through the disappointment and anxiety of things feeling like they were falling apart and took the stress out of having to get everything moved around for the new date. She thought of every detail that needed to be taken care of and handled any changes I made along with the way with such professionalism. Hannah Perry coordinated the day of and exuded an aura of calm that let me know that everything was taken care of and helped ease any day of anxieties for me and my family. Hiring this company made my big day such a pleasure!

Experiencia fantástica: There is not enough words that could sum up our experience with Evan & Tara Skinner Events. We enjoyed working with Evan SO much. Unfortunately, we had to postpone our wedding due to covid and I was so nervous about being able to still have the wedding of my dreams. We were one of the first weddings at the beginning of covid to have to postpone, so we already had EVERYTHING booked. Evan did not bat an eye! She made the process so easy, was so reassuring and made me feel so good about every decision. She even ended up being able to reschedule every vendor that I had originally wanted. I honestly cannot imagine going through this process without her. She was extremely professional, had great relationships with the Savannah vendors and gave me great direction and advice. She worked with me, my mom and mother in law during the process and made every opinion feel heard and validated. On our wedding day, right before the wedding party was going to walk down the aisle, RAIN came out of nowhere. What could have turned into chaos, at an outdoor wedding with guests scrambling for cover, was handled SO gracefully. I truly don’t know how she did it (probably magic) but Evan somehow re-arranged our entire tented reception area into a new alter and aisle for our ceremony. It was as perfect as it could be and I felt so lucky to be in Evans hands during that situation. I would recommend working with her to ANY new bride!! I truly feel so grateful and blessed to have made the decision to work with her.

Experiencia fantástica: Brides, if you’re looking for a wedding planner you can completely rely on to help you every step of the way - Krystal Cassidy is absolutely WONDERFUL!!! We planned a destination wedding for over a year together and she was phenomenal!!! Absolutely amazing. She always responded day-of, never forgot the million ideas I threw her way and was always kind, professional, and VERY organized! She took so much stress and tasks off my plate, I truly can’t say enough positive things about her. I’m beyond thankful for her!!! On the night of our outdoor wedding, we had huge rainstorm (the tent, dance floor and catering tent flooded) and she handled all of the obstacles with grace and was extremely calming when we spoke about plans b and c! I know choosing someone to handle the most exciting day of your life can be a tough decision but please know you will be in great hands with Krystal!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Our wedding day felt like a dream come true all thanks to Tara Skinner Wedding & Events. Krystal from Tara Skinner Weddings was truly amazing to work with!!! Always so sweet, calm and professional. Krystal went above and beyond to make the wedding planning process stress free. Even after having a postpone the wedding from May to September Krystal never missed a beat. Can't say enough great things about the team and highly reccomend. Brides you are in the best hands!

Experiencia fantástica: Tara Skinner Wedding & Events far exceeded our expectations to make our daughter and son in law's wedding absolutely PERFECT! Tara and her team's attention to detail was impeccable!! Tara is professional, budget conscious, timely, organized and always makes herself available when needed!! I can't imagine doing a wedding without her and we can't wait for the next one!!

Experiencia fantástica: Tara is absolutely amazing! She helped make my vision for my wedding come to life and far exceeded my expectations. Every step of the way she was ready and available to speak with me, always super responsive. As a 2020 bride, I can honestly say my wedding was not a stressful weekend because of Tara. I did not have to worry about anything and remained hands-off the entire weekend while she worked her magic. The biggest testament to that is my bridal party and guests telling me how calm and peaceful I looked on my wedding day. Tara took charge dealing with last minute changes even up until the day of the wedding. She alleviated all my covid concerns and even when unexpected rain showed up, she was there to keep the show going. Then to the decor! She helped execute every detail perfect fully with our florist and rental company. It was straight out of a fairytale. The best part was my husband and I could enjoy ourselves the entire reception because she took care of everything.

Experiencia fantástica: Tara is absolutely AMAZING! My mom and I worked with her for over a year planning my dream wedding! She has the best ideas and is beyond organized....my mom and I still don't understand how she does it ALL! Not only was she my wedding planner, she became a friend and her and my mom still talk on the phone several times a month :) I could go on and on about how amazing Tara is and I can't thank her enough for all that she has done for me! Love you Tara! xoxo

Experiencia fantástica: Tara Skinner Weddings & Events goes above and beyond to deliver a wedding that is sure to be the talk of the town. Their professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail will ensure that your dream wedding is even better than you could have imagined!

Experiencia fantástica: Tara Skinner Events is a pleasure to work with. The entire team is professional and organized and they are team players. JLKevents always enjoys the opportunity to work with Tara Skinner Events.

Experiencia fantástica: The absolute Best! As a Bride from Atlanta planning a wedding in Savannah - there is no way it could have happened without Crystal and Tara Skinner Wedding & Events! We signed on for the "Month of" package as my Mother had been in the hospitality industry all her life and we figured we could handle everything until then. Crystal still jumped into action sending us documents with vendor recommendations and information for Savannah Weddings. We still talked to her daily and she was always available to help answer questions or concerns! She always provided full honesty in answering my questions which I so appreciated. You could tell how much she cared about our Wedding. I never once felt like this was just another wedding to her. Unfortunately 6 months before the Wedding my Mother was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. With everything approaching we started treatment quickly which meant I lost my right hand. Crystal again jumped right into action. She was there, texting me through my tears reassuring me that everything was going to be perfect. She attended our Tasting (on a Sunday) because my Mom's taste buds weren't the same through Chemo. Crystal was there for me in more ways than any Wedding Planner is paid to be. From start to finish she was on top of everything, organized and asking questions that I never would have thought about. It was Genuine. On the Big day she was there from the very early morning all the way to being the absolute last to leave. My Wedding Party and Family were checked in on all through out the day, there was never a time I couldn't find Crystal or didn't have her right there. She's by your side through out it all. But most importantly - Crystal and TSWE allowed me to enjoy the 5 days of Friends and Family and they allowed me to have my Mom by my side the whole day as everything else was attended to. After talking with my Mom, our only regret was that we didn't hire them from the very beginning. They truly will take away the stress of this process for you. I would absolutely recommend this company again and again. Our Wedding crew became our Family and we can't imagine still not seeing them on our trips back to Savannah. Crystal, I can't thank you and TSWE enough for everything you did for us through out our Wedding Journey. You are the sweetest soul and you all truly made our Dreams come to life!

Experiencia fantástica: Very warm and helpful planner to interact with leading up to and on the day of our wedding. We appreciated her ability to handle a lot of (sometimes conflicting) input on how the wedding should go. Thanks again Tara!

Experiencia fantástica: Crystal with TSWE goes above and beyond and was truly amazing. As an out of town bride, she made planning a destination wedding a breeze. She was there every step of the way. Meeting us on weekends for planning appointments when we were in town to weekly and often daily emails. She gave us her complete dedication. She also LITERALLY saved our plated dinner, when the venue required caterer ordered the incorrect food counts. Crystal showed up with shrimp to feed our guests. If nothing else speaks to the superb quality of service that Crystal provides, actually bringing the food the feed our guest should! She goes above and beyond to make sure that your wedding goes as smoothly as planned without any hiccups. Also Crystal is an absolute joy to work with. We immediately hit it off and she became a dear friend in the process. I cannot say enough wonderful words about Crystal except, BOOK HER!!

Experiencia fantástica: Tara Skinner Events and specifically Crystal Brooks were the best investment we made in my daughters Savannah Wedding! Crystal was absolutely a lifesaver when it came to details, running the rehearsal, sources in Savannah (we are from Atlanta) and working with the vendors. I could not have asked nor found anyone better to work with. I highly recommend anyone getting married in Savannah to consider this company - even if you think you don't need a planner. It is the only way to go!!

Experiencia fantástica: I would HIGHLY recommend Posh, Petals, and Pearls to any bride. We had Marvee as our month of planner and I can't begin to say how THANKFUL we were to have her. From the beginning, she was always responsive, helpful and calming. We had a Persian/Christian wedding which required the set up of a large ceremonial spread with many intricate and delicate items on it and she handled setting it up (and breaking it down) perfectly. She even came to my family home to see the spread and take pictures. The week and the day of the wedding tend to be the most hectic but she handled everything that came my way perfectly, including last minute changes as my ceremony was to be outside and had to be moved inside. Not only are my husband and I thankful and raved about her but my family and many guests also spoke highly of her and how on top of everything she was as well as sweet and professional. She was the best decision I made in wedding planning and we truly believe our day would not have been as special without her there. THANK YOU!!

Experiencia fantástica: Marvee McKensie was the most attentive, reliable, and kindest person we have worked with in any manor. Having a reputable planner, like Marvee, from PP&P made our wedding experience the most enjoyable one! Highly recommend for all weddings in the Charleston, Savannah, Hilton Head region.

Experiencia fantástica: I sought advice from married friends and they all recommended finding a great wedding planner to handle, at a minimum, the day of the wedding. However, I had a hard time finding someone in the Charleston area that was in our budget. Most planners were out of reach financially and looking to provide more services than we needed. We were so, so lucky to stumble upon Ashley Greene and her team at Posh Petals and Pearls. She was able to customize a package for us that fit our budget and our wedding planning needs. She's also TERRIFIC at her job and I can't recommend her highly enough. Ashley is a fabulous listener. Our first meeting was so easy. She answered all of our questions and asked us a lot of great questions to make sure she understood what we were looking for. She was open, honest, personable and professional. She had great suggestions, too, but never felt pushy. I was immediately comfortable. The contract process was just as easy. We hired her for the "month of" and that's when she really knocked our socks off. We had multiple phone meetings to review all of the details coming together and she had great advice and problem solving ideas during that hectic time. She met my mom and I the week of to do a walk through of our space, review the floor plan and decoration set-up, and answer any other questions we had. By the time I officially handed her the reins, I felt confident in letting go of the "nuts and bolts" of our wedding day, which is one of the best feelings you can have as a bride. She was a rock star the weekend of our wedding. Our wedding rehearsal process was so smooth with Ashley at the helm. I'm not sure I can even articulate how amazing Ashely and her team were the day of our wedding. (Tears are coming just thinking about it.) She perfectly executed all the things we'd talked about and came the rescue in a few emergencies. HIRE HER! She's amazing and a really worth the investment.

Experiencia fantástica: Right after I got engaged, my fiance and I started talking details and decided it would be so much fun to do a destination wedding. So, of course, right away, I started telling everyone I knew that we were getting married in Charleston! Then it hit me. I love Charleston, but I know NOTHING about getting married there! I had a minor melt-down but then got myself together and started looking for planners to help me. That's when I stumbled upon PPP and was immediately drawn to their website, portfolio, the staff, everything! Ashley Greene responded to my inquiry and quickly set up a call. Instantly, I knew this was a match. I didn't need to look any further. She was calm, reassuring, positive, thoughtful, and patient with my endless questions. I don't regret my decision to go with PPP and Ashley in the slightest. She helped to make my day and the entire process leading up to it absolutely perfect. Ashley was 100% attentive to my needs, responsive to my calls and texts, helpful with her suggestions and recommendations, and just overall an amazing professional through it all. Without her, I would've truly been lost. The month leading up to the wedding, including the day of, could not have gone smoother! She had everything in place, all the vendors updated and on the same page, and helped to pull the wedding together like it was nothing. For anyone getting married in the Charleston area, PPP and Ashley are exactly what you need. Thank you SO much for your incredible work, your passion, and your talents! I'm so thankful to have found you, Ashley, and hope to see you in the near future!

Experiencia fantástica: Wonderful team! Tara is a saint! Planning a wedding is never easy, but a destination wedding with the bride in NY and her parents in MS and the ceremony in Savannah could have been a nightmare. Tara made all the planning so easy and smooth. We met for 3 planning trips in Savannah and our time there was always filled with vendor visits and meetings. Tara organized everything and kept us on schedule with her timelines. Plus, she's a sweetheart and so fun to work with! Savannah is a lovely place for a wedding. Posh, Petals and Pearls is a must!!!

Experiencia fantástica: I cannot say enough about working with Ashley from Posh Petals and Pearls. From our first conversation when I had no idea where to start and she answered on a Sunday afternoon, spending an hour and a half on the phone answering all of my questions, I knew that she was going to be amazing to work with. Even though I only contracted her for the month of planning package, Ashley was there every step of the way to recommend vendors, review contracts, meet me at venues, answer a thousand questions no matter how busy she was, and even helped procure last minute corn hole boards when the ones we made didn't go so well. She is so on top of everything and made our dream wedding come together and make sure the day was flawless! It felt like I was working with one of my best friends.

Experiencia fantástica: I had the BEST wedding experience working with Tara at Posh, Petals & Pearls. I hands down recommend Posh, Petals, & Pearls to any bride and we could not be more pleased. Tara made the whole planning experience wonderful from the start. She is so knowledgeable in all aspects of the wedding planning industry, extremely organized & timely, had the best suggestions, and took my vision for the wedding and made it better than we could have imagined. We could not recommend her and her team more! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Experiencia fantástica: I could not have been happier with my experience working with PPP. In one phone call, Tara understood the exact look I had in mind for my wedding, made suggestions to enhance our vision, and executed in flawless fashion. She steered us in the direction of vendors she believed we would like best (her instincts were always SPOT ON) and facilitated all conversations to minimize unnecessary back and forth. These killer instincts are the #1 reason why I recommend Tara and PPP. She could understand our style even when we couldn't fully articulate it ourselves. Finally, when small snafus arose, our guests were oblivious because Tara and team swiftly found a solution to every problem. She is quick on her feet and manages a timeline (and a rowdy wedding party) with poise and efficiency. It was an absolute pleasure working with her.

Experiencia fantástica: Ashley planned our wedding in Savannah in November 2015 and hiring PP&P was the best wedding planning decision I made, hands down. She was able to think about all the details and items I would not have anticipated (and then would have been so stressed out by when/if I finally did) and she has great relationships/knowledge of all the vendors in Savannah. That helped a lot since we were planning a destination wedding. Not only is she great at her job, but I genuinely enjoyed hanging out with her during the planning process. She was so funny and kind. I highly recommend hiring PP&P--it is worth every penny!

Experiencia fantástica: Hiring Crystal Brooks from PPP was the BEST decision I made during the whole wedding process! She was fantastic, and I can't say enough good things about her. Organized, amazing communication, very knowledgeable, basically everything you want in a wedding planner. I am an extremely happy client with a beautiful wedding to prove it! :)

Experiencia fantástica: We worked with Ashley in Charleston a year ago and I still tell people how amazing she was! Seriously amazing! She helped us so much because we were out of state and simply couldn't do a lot of boots on the ground stuff. She was so helpful, fun, easy going and so on top of it. My husband and I kept making the joke that if I wasn't marrying him I would sooooo marry her haha. We never felt a moment of that stereotypical wedding planning stress thanks to Posh, Petals & Pearls

Experiencia fantástica: There are not enough words to describe the awesomeness of the ladies at Posh, Petals and Pearls! As an out-of-towner, I knew I needed help planning my Tybee Island wedding and I'm eternally grateful for this company! Beyond helpful, beyond professional and just so charming and delightful to work with. If you're planning a wedding or event in Savannah or an area they cover, you will not go wrong by utilizing their services.

Experiencia fantástica: Posh Petals and Pearls is the most professional event service I have ever worked with. Ashley was there to help from beginning to end and made sure no small detail was overlooked. I have already recommended Posh Petals and Pearls to many friends and family members!

Experiencia fantástica: I worked with Ashley at PPP and could not have been happier. Our families raved of her ability to think ahead during a day of off and on rain and she truly helped our vision come true in making an outdoor ceremony happen amongst rain showers. Ashley and her team left no detail undone and made the entire event seem so effortless and relaxed. From making sure we had umbrellas to creating a "shuttle service" to get guests indoors without getting wet, we did not have to worry about a thing the entire day because PPP had it "handled." Posh Petals and Pearls feels like an old southern neighbor taking care of all the details during one of life's busy seasons and allows you and your family to enjoy every minute of your special occasion. Ashley was fantastic to walk through the planning process with as she helped me when I needed it and allowed for my "type-A" personality to complete as many tasks as my heart desired answering questions along the way. You cannot go wrong by enlisting Posh Petal and Pearls -the team understands that each bride and groom are unique and work alongside you to make sure their execution the day of your wedding is flawless! We were excited and surprised to even receive candid shots the next morning that Ashley an her team had captured throughout our wedding. PPP can work with you and your budget and will be the best money you can spend to make your day a dream come true!
