"Shelby was a godsend for me while I planned a large bachelor/bachelorette party while out of state. She had so many wonderful ideas of what should be included in the package and made sure that we were stocked up on all of the essentials and more. Not only did she provide professional service and communication, but she also took the time to really understand what was needed and went above and beyond to ensure that our AirBnB was stocked with everything needed - from drinks, to paper goods, to bug spray. The presentation of everything was absolutely beautiful. If you are looking for a turnkey event and want to walk into your AirBnB with everything you need without all of the planning/hassle, Shelby is the best person in Charleston to be in touch with."​
