About Candace

I am a wedding planner + coordinator born and raised in the North Carolina foothills, with over ten years of experience in event coordination. I began my journey at Surry Community College coordinating events such as the nursing pinning ceremonies and annual wine symposium. 

After the birth of our second child, I really wanted the ability to stay at home with our sweet kids, and thanks to the "dreamer" mind of my husband, Candace Gibson Events was born.

I absolutely love planning/coordinating weddings in the foothills and mountains of NC, supporting small businesses and local venues. This year (2025) I have the exciting honor of being published in the Marry Me NC magazine (pages 60-63)!! I am excited to get to know you and be part of your special day. Let’s make your vision come to life.
