Reviews
"Highly recommend Destiny Events! We worked together on a wedding in South Carolina and sherrissa is a hustler. Hospitality at its best. Hope to work together again soon!!"
Southern Libation
"We worked with Sherrissa for a joint day-of coordination effort and she was absolutely wonderful. She is such a joy to work with and a genuine person to be around in general! Sherrissa is very responsive and always positive. Would absolutely recommend working with Destiny Events!"
Duo Wedding & Events
"Sherrissa did such an amazing job planning my husband’s surprise birthday party! She was very professional and timely she kept me informed of everything from start to finish and kept in constant communication leading up to the party. She came in and took over my event when my old planner dropped out and I believe everything happens for a reason and she was meant to plan this party! She is our family's event planner for life."
