What locals are saying
Founded in 1998 and anchored at 123 Spring St, WED is one of Charleston's longer-tenured boutique planning firms — led by Haley Horsfall, who built her reputation on the kind of personal-connection ethos that boutique clients expect: conceptual vision, logistical rigor, and a declared stress-free process from first call to last dance. The firm operates well beyond Charleston, touching Beaufort, Savannah, NYC, and the USVI, which signals a clientele drawn more to the planner than the zip code. The public review footprint is thin, and an 82% recommendation rate across a small pool of responses is respectable but not emphatic — WED earns its standing more through longevity and press recognition in local circles than through volume.
On socials
Gena is named in virtually every couple's account — stress-free is the word that surfaces again and again, with out-of-state couples in particular noting they had to do nothing but show up. The consistent line across reviews: she handled every detail flawlessly.
