Getting to know the faces behind Southern Enchantments

Hey there! We’re so excited you’re here.

Here at Southern Enchantments we pride ourselves on the relationships we build with our clients and the love and passion we put into each one of our couple’s special day. That’s why we wanted to take the opportunity to introduce you to the amazing ladies that make this company possible. We hope you learn a little more about each of us and we hope to learn more about you too!

I’m Morgan, Owner and Lead Planner of Southern Enchantments. My event and design career began several years ago when I started as an Event Planner for a small Dallas based company. Funnily enough, this is when I met, Monica (Lead Planner for Southern Enchantments)! My love for the details and wedding design pushed me to take a leap of faith and start on this incredible journey.

I’m engaged to the love of my life, Nik and will be tying the knot in October of this year. To any future brides, I can relate to your excitement (and stresses!) of planning your own wedding. I am a University of Iowa Alum, where I studied Communications and Human Relations. Last spring, I also became a Trained Wedding Planner through the American Association of Certified Wedding Planners and am currently a member of the organization. When I am not meeting with my sweet couples or working on wedding designs you can find me spending time with my closest friends and family, German Shepard, Mila and adopted kitty, Keira.

Fun Facts About Me:

• I am currently taking an iPad sketching course to further my event design skills

• My fiancé and I are born 364 days apart

• I am obsessed with all thing’s true crime (my favorite podcast is My Favorite Murder)

• My all-time favorite TV show is Charmed (the original)

• I am a sushi fanatic and could eat it everyday

Hey there all you sweet love birds! I’m Monica, a Lead Planner of Southern Enchantments! Let me start by saying congratulations! If your reading this, I think it’s safe to assume you’re either engaged, hoping to become engaged, or maybe you’ve got a super exciting non-wedding event coming up! Either way, I’m so glad you made it here! A bit about me: I was born and raised in Dallas, Texas. I graduated from UT Dallas with a degree in Marketing & Business Management. I’ve been married since October 2018, and I have a sweet black cat named Mr. Lala! I’ve always believed that love & happiness are such beautiful and valuable things in life so after graduating and getting some event planning experience I naturally gravitated towards creating this business with Morgan. It’s been an awesome adventure and each event has their own unique sense of loveliness! Hope I get to help be a part of yours!

Fun Facts About Me:

• Morgan and I met as unpaid event planning interns for a company years ago

• I thought Mr. Lala was a girl for the first 3 months of his life

I'm Karissa! A bride-to-be, soon-to-be wifey, future Mrs. Threadgill and dog mom. Yes, I'm a little excited! We recently adopted a black lab and named her Rally Ray. She is so much fun. I love everything marketing, sales and events. I spent two years at Texas Tech (wreck em) and finished up my marketing degree at the University of Texas at Dallas. I am now a Catering Sales Manager for the cutest concept, Original ChopShop and adore being a wedding assistant for THE day of all days.
