Hi! I am Erica Greenwold Reisen

I am the Lead Planner and Designer of Folie à Deux Events, a Chapel Hill wedding planning and event design service. My mission is to help you create a beautiful, cohesive look for your event that is inspired by your values and personal style. We will help you think critically about traditions and build a celebration that truly reflects your personalities and your future together.

Our process is all about collaboration and listening to the unique ideas of our clients. We will not push you toward vendors or styles that don’t fit your needs. We feel that wedding planners are educators as much as they are organizers or designers.

WEDDINGS ARE ABOUT LOVE AND PARTNERSHIP.

Planning your wedding is one building block of your future together. We encourage couples to have the important conversations. Use your wedding planning to discuss finances, career goals, and family in addition to the visual elements, catering choices, and traditions. Wedding planning should not be relegated to one partner due to gender or other social constructs. It should be a process that allows each partner’s strengths and interests to shine!

Our Values

We believe in creating events that are not just cookie-cutter replicas of recent trends.

We aim to reflect the personality and values of the clients in every event we design.

We believe in equality for all people. Love is Love, end of story.

We believe in thinking critically about traditions and how they relate to you and your partner.

We believe that weddings are pretty and fun, but building a solid marriage should be your #1 priority.

Let’s get together & plan some badass events!

Kind Words

Kelli + BryceFloral Design - Sept 2019

I (Kelli) hired Erica for my September 2019 wedding for florals and she blew us away!! I know pretty much nothing about flowers and had a vague description of what I wanted for the wedding. She asked the right questions and somehow brought my vision to life!! She is such a beautiful soul and I can’t recommend her enough!!

Allie + SeanFull Planning - May 2019

We hired Erica for full planning services, and it was HANDS DOWN the best decision we made in the wedding planning process! Where do I start?? She went above and beyond in every way. She is super organized and consistently excellent with communications. Furthermore, she is a joy to be around— kind, creative, and always focused on the essence of what you want your celebration to be like. I loved her suggestions on how to make the day special and unique, blending the traditional and non-traditional seamlessly. Her inspiration/design boards blew me away, and I can’t believe how well she captured everything we wanted— when we didn’t even know what we wanted! I didn’t think anyone could care as much about the details or spend as much time trying to make everything perfect as I did, but she proved me wrong and I am forever grateful.

Maria + EricCoordination + Florals - Dec 2018

Erica and her team were fabulous. During the whole planning process, I felt at ease. I was able to meet with Erica several times and she was very responsive via email/texts. The day of I was stress free and everything ran smoothly. Definitely glad I got a wedding coordinator and that is was Folie a Deux. She is very knowledgeable about the industry, especially triangle venues and vendors. Also, super creative! She is also just totally rad and not cookie-cutter which is what I was looking for.

Lesley + EvanCoordination - July 2017

Thank you so much for being a part of making our wedding! You made the day not only a celebration of our marriage, but an all-out amazing and one-of-a-kind party that we will remember for the rest of our lives. You gave us the recommendations and the encouragement we needed to build our wedding. We really appreciated your responsiveness and flexibility in the planning process. We had a blast the whole day!

Jenn + TeagueCoordination + Design - June 2017

Erica was a joy to work with! She met with us many times throughout the planning process, and was instrumental in helping us get everything straight for the big day. We primarily had a DIY wedding, and without Erica’s wonderful service, we would have not had been able to pull it off! She reduced our stress on the actual day, allowing us to really enjoy our wedding day. We would heartily recommend Folie à Deux Events to any couple looking for any level of wedding planning. The care and responsiveness that Erica exhibited made working with her an extremely positive experience!

Alec + AndrewCoordination - Sept 2017

Andrew and I reflected back on our wedding experience and concluded that the ONE absolute right thing we did was hire Erica. I cannot stress enough how vital and awesome she was leading up to and the day of our wedding! Not only does she do a great job on coordinating a wedding, but she also has a wonderful personality that makes it so much fun and easy to work with her!
