We're Brittanie Raquel Events, a wedding and event planning team based in Wilmington, NC whose goal is to make sure guests leave your event thinking...

"That was ICONIC."

wilmington, north carolina

Wedding planning is a lot more than just decisions on linens and floor plans. It's also about making sure your family and friends are enjoying the day as much as you are.

Our approach to wedding planning is inspired by the hospitality Brittanie grew up seeing from her mom, creating an experience that is not *just* stress-free but truly enjoyable.


We believe every wedding deserves an iconic moment,

and every couple deserves a planning team that calms the choas.

Our favorite weddings are those that are thoughtfully designed with special details that reflect our couples, their family values, traditions — and we love an EPIC dance party too.

Every member of our team has a heart to serve, not only our clients, but also their families and vendor teams.

how we approach working with every couple

Serving others is the center of everything we do. Even after long hours or long weekends, we remember this is a once-in-a-lifetime moment for our couples and families.

As the planner and manager of the wedding, we set the tone for everyone – vendors, guests, and our couples. Even under the pressure of pulling everything together, we want others to feel our positive energy and that we are in control of their day, so they can relax.

Our goal is always to be as intentional as possible and to find moments where we can go above and beyond. It's an expectation that we have everything organized and in place, but we want our couples to walk away remembering how special they felt too.
