My husband and I had our wedding in August 2023 which Patrice was our wedding planner. She stepped in when we had to let another planner go due to creative differences and Patrice made sure our wedding was exactly what we wanted! I’m a detailed person so I REALLY loved that she provides detailed instructions to the entire wedding party and vendors for where they’re supposed to be and what to do down to the minute! She brought vision to life (including displaying our mother’s actual wedding dresses during the reception) and remained calm through the whole process. Would definitely recommend her services if you are in search for an event planner!

As a first-time collaboration, we were thoroughly impressed with her professionalism and attention to detail. The decor was absolutely stunning and set the perfect ambiance for the celebration. Guests couldn't stop raving about the beautiful setup and delicious food. It was clear that every element was thoughtfully curated to ensure a memorable event. Working with Patrice was seamless and enjoyable. She communicated effectively and made sure everything ran smoothly. We look forward to the opportunity to work with her again in the future. Highly recommend her services to anyone looking to host a flawless event!

Absolutely stellar experience with Patrice at Purposely Designed Event Planning! As photographers with Fancy This Photography, we recently had the pleasure of capturing a wedding she orchestrated at the stunning Rickhouse in Durham, and it was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived until the last shot was taken, Patrice's dedication to perfection shone through. Her meticulous attention to detail ensured that every aspect of the event was flawlessly executed. From the layout of the venue to the timing of each moment, Patrice left no stone unturned. One of the most impressive qualities about Patrice was her promptness. She was always one step ahead, anticipating our needs as photographers and ensuring that everything ran smoothly. Her ability to stay organized and on top of every detail was truly commendable, making our job as photographers that much easier. Working with Patrice was a seamless and enjoyable experience from start to finish. Her professionalism, creativity, and passion for her craft are evident in everything she does. We couldn't have asked for a better partner to bring our vision to life.

She did a terrific job planning our dream wedding! Patrice listened to us and helped us communicate with our vendors. She provided a detailed schedule for each day that helped us ensure the most important components of our vision were included. Most importantly during the day, she made sure everything ran smoothly and my husband and I were happy! Patrice is super warm, patient, and has an eye for detail. She was professional and punctual. Please consider using her as your planner!

Patrice was the Wedding Planner for a weeding where I was Maid of Honor. She her team were very pleasant and approachable. Prior to wedding day, provided a run of show to all members of the wedding party so everyone knew where to be and the series of activities. She and her team were also always available to us for miscellaneous things throughout wedding day.
