I cannot imagine planning or executing our wedding day without Loraine! Loraine's experience and industry knowledge SHINED with everything from vendor suggestions, venue layout options, plan A, B, and C for potential inclement weather, keeping everyone (vendors, wedding party, family) in line on the wedding day, and so much more. 10/10 would recommend!

Invitation Only proved to be the most valuable wedding vendor I booked for my October wedding. Loraine helped me with SO MUCH on top of running our ceremony and reception! To name a few things: logistics/layout, timeline, rentals, decorating, rehearsal, and vendor selection (this one turned out to be extremely important). This woman is a true professional and great at her job, but what really sticks with me is her crisis management and level of commitment to her clients. She went above and beyond to make sure that our outdoor wedding didn’t get ruined by an uninvited guest – Tropical Storm

I hired Loraine and her crew to make my daughters wedding a memorable experience. Not only was Loraine warm and kind, she was also dedicated to making my daughter happy. She truly has a gift and is exceptional. We traveled 4 hours for this destination wedding. Loraine was able to make this a perfect day. She is professional as well as her staff. Thanks to her, we were able to enjoy our daughters wedding while she handled everything. One of the vendors that we hired fell short of her obligations and Loraine stepped in to make sure my daughters day remained beautiful. Thank you Loraine.

Lorraine was absolutely amazing to work with! Planning a wedding in Charleston while living in New England was a challenge and Invitation Only was there to help us every step of the way, no question or detail was too small. Before, during and after the wedding Invitation Only took care of everything including ensuring our needs were meet. We highly recommend Lorraine and her team!

Loraine and her team are outstanding! As a fellow wedding vendor, I always get excited when I hear a client is working with them! She is extremely organized and so easy to work with. We KNOW that the day is going to be well executed and everything is going to be set up beautifully. Seriously, you will not be disappointed! Oh, and did I mention her rental items?! They’re absolutely beautiful! The linens are always pressed and clean- and the furniture pieces are pristine!
You will not be disappointed ❤️

I can’t say enough how amazing this company is! The attention to detail is flawless from start to finish. From the perfect matching of flowers and jewelry, the perfectly pressed, clean linens! I have worked with them photographing a wedding as well as been a bride and I would do it all again! Flawless!

What a nightmare!!
Lorraine was my coordinator but she had her assistant, Bridgette, run my wedding. Biggest mistake ever. Bridgette came to me for EVERYTHING<
Second, as I'm leaving to get photos taken with my husband Bridgette comes over and tells me I forgot about a guest, that she's crying and wants to leave. I try to explain to her I must've forgotten her name on the seating chart but she is accounted for, has a meal and a place

We rented tables and chairs from Invitation Only for an event in our backyard in Summerville, and we were very pleased. We worked with Kris -- who took care of our paperwork as well as making the delivery and pick up -- and who was so helpful and friendly. The company was flexible when we had to change the amount of equipment when our guest list grew. Also their delivery and pick up were right on time and uncomplicated. The tables, linens, and chairs were clean and in good repair and looked beautiful for our celebration. The linens arrived spotless, and a bag was provided for the linen return.

We had an outdoor wedding on Good Friday at Wannamaker Park. We shopped around for chair and table rental. They had the best price. The day before the event, we called to change their delivery time. No problem at all. Everything was set up beautifully on time and picked up on time as well. Thanks for making our day more enjoyable!!
