Well I can’t believe 2016 is at an end…. I’ll be ringing in the new year at a wedding (of course), and 2017 is already shaping up to be a great year! It’s been a whirlwind of a first year for Emily Katherine Events, and I’m excitedly planning and looking forward to all the events in store for 2017!

North Carolina Wedding Planner Year in Review

I’ve seen a lot of posts about how awful 2016 was, and yes it’s been rough. But as I reflect on 2016 I can’t help but remember all the wonderful moments and people that I’ve had the pleasure of knowing. So this post is about happy highlights, because I’m a silver linings type of gal. 2016 wasn’t a great year for many things, but the clients I’ve had and the vendors I’ve worked with definitely made it the fun and exciting year I’ll choose to remember.

Here are a few highlights from 2016…

This year we worked with so many awesome new Friendors at weddings, the NC Museum of History Bridal Expo, and Styled Shoots! We also had some fun planning birthday and graduation parties, business events, and even a book launch!

So 2016 wasn’t all bad! And I want to thank all of YOU, our clients and vendor friends, for making this year so special. Now bring on 2017!
