The Planner

Ashley Snider

Founder & Lead Planner, Charlotte, NC

I'm your guide, your coordinator and your greatest advocate. For more than a decade I've planned celebrations of every size, from baby showers to dream weddings, and I still believe the best ones come from intention, emotion and careful execution.

I'm based right here in Charlotte and proud to call Myers Park home. That means deep local insight and a curated network of trusted vendors. My work has ranged from a Great Gatsby-inspired wedding at the Ritz-Carlton to garden ceremonies at the Duke Mansion.

Got something big on the horizon? I'd love to help make it the most meaningful event you've ever experienced. Let's start dreaming together.

My Story

How I got here

A little look back at the road to Events Without A Hitch.

  1. 2011

    My path to events starts in corporate America, planning meetings and gatherings. Then I plan my own wedding, and a love for weddings takes hold.

  2. 2013

    A dear friend asks me to plan her wedding. It goes off without a hitch, and just like that, Events Without A Hitch is born.

  3. 2013 to 2018

    Years of weddings and celebrations, wonderful people, and a business I’m proud of. Every event gives me one more reason to love what I do.

  4. 2018

    Life asks me to step away for a while. It’s a chapter I never saw coming, and one that leaves me grateful for every day since.

  5. 2021

    I come back to the work I love. I listen, learn, and rebuild, and slowly shape a business that feels more and more like me.

  6. Today

    I still can’t believe I get to be part of one of the most important days in people’s lives, and to walk alongside them as they prepare to celebrate with the people they love most.

Events Without A Hitch is built on the same heart it started with: thoughtful details, meaningful relationships, and celebrations that feel like the people at the center of them.

The Philosophy

The most memorable celebrations are built on intention, emotion and seamless execution.

Great events don't happen by accident. They come from deliberate choices: a thoughtful guest list, a theme that carries through every detail, a venue that feels made for you. We act as both creative collaborator and logistics specialist, turning a feeling you can't quite name into a day that looks and feels exactly like you.
