Hello,

I am Patricia Mudd, the owner of Silk Expressions. We are a Wedding/Event Planning and Decorating service. I have been serving the wedding/even industry for over 15 years. Planning an event such as a wedding can be very stressful and alot of work goes into planning a wedding. 

The most important items you have to decide is the budget, style of the wedding, attire, flowers, venues and food.  Your budget and the venue capacity will dictate the number of guest you will be able to invite. Your budget will dictate your style, attire, flowers and the type of venue you will be able to obtain.

When you are ready to plan your wedding. A Wedding Planner/coordinator can be of great service. They can help you find your venues, floral supplier, attire, rental items, help with color coordination, find printing services for your invitations and programs. If your Planner has the expirence and knowledge they know where the deals are and that can add up to a substantial saving and save you alot of stress.

 

We offer monthly specials and a military discount. Call 919-222-9947 or contact Trish for your free quote.
