We had a great feeling about Andrea from the time we first met over Zoom, and our instincts were absolutely correct. She is so warm, in control, and knowledgeable -- our experience planning our wedding could not have been smoother or more pleasant. We gave her our budget number, and she immediately reassured us that she could deliver the wedding of our dreams... and she did. The network of vendors she connected us with were all fantastic, and her calm demeanor kept us at ease and was also a huge help in soothing our parents' anxiety throughout the process. We are elated that we had the chance to work with and get to know her. Andrea is absolutely fantastic and we were trying to make a newly engaged cousin hire her during our own wedding! She was just that good.

I love everything coffee, purple, and vintage; I almost never go somewhere without red lipstick. And you’ll probably see me somewhere in downtown Frederick at least twice a week.

If you don't think you need a wedding coordinator, you're wrong. I set up a call with Sarah after getting engaged and signed a contract with her right away. She is extremely detail-oriented, professional, and personable. She was always quick to respond to my e-mails and had a solution to any questions or concerns I had. My other vendor teams complimented Sarah's work and how much easier she made their jobs. My bridesmaids, parents and guests even commented on Sarah and her team's hard work the day of the wedding. I cannot recommend Sarah and her team enough. I couldn't have made it through the planning process without her.

Awarded Best of Zola
Maddie and the crew at DMV weddings were amazing to work with. My wife and I couldn’t have been happier with how our wedding turned out, and we planned our wedding for over a year and put in a massive amount of effort on all fronts regarding logistics and vendors. Even with that advanced preparation, it would have been impossible to execute our wedding to expectations without a day-of coordinator. Maddie and team were the glue that kept everything together from start to finish on our wedding day. Maddie is the consummate professional, and has pretty much seen it all. With that experience, the communication in advance will give her an idea of how to best manage your wedding and make it a “dream come true” experience. Additionally, she is quite flexible as it pertains to achieving a desired outcome, and she put it strenuous efforts to ensure our ceremony was in good order at our church, and that everything was ready to go at the different reception location. My wife and I recommend having a day of coordinator in general, and once that decision has been made, we highly recommend using the services of DMV Weddings. Not only will they do an outstanding job, but they are comprised of great people who deeply care about your needs and will do whatever it takes to make your wedding the experience of a lifetime!

Stephanie did an incredible job as our month of coordinator. Seriously, not a single downfall- she answered all correspondence timely and with thoughtful and professional responses. She offered detailed advice to make the flow of the day perfect. She worked with all of our vendors well ahead of time. She set up and broke down decorations exactly as planned and she brought such a positive aurora everywhere she went! I felt so much more relaxed having such an incredible coordinator on our side! I didn’t originally think we needed a coordinator, but after the amount of help she gave us both leading up to and on the big day, I am SO GLAD we did; and I’m most glad it was her we hired! I highly recommend her services!

How do I even begin to explain how INCREDIBLE Lissa and her entire team were! I was in graduate school, working part time, graduated, got a new job, and also bought a house and moved all within the 1.5 years we planned our wedding together! Through it all, I so appreciated Lissa's vendor recommendations, her attention to detail, and her fast communication - often responding to my emails in mere minutes! Immediately on our first call, Lissa eased any and all concerns and worries about planning a wedding, and her expertise came through right away, which is especially needed when working with a historic venue like mine (DAR in DC) Even though I got the partial planning package, Lissa was always available via text or email, and we also had multiple phone/Zoom calls as well where she would help make an actionable plan for the following weeks/months ahead. On the actual wedding day, I ate, drank, relaxed, danced, laughed, had fun, and I didn't have to worry about a single thing! The whole day was truly perfect and executed FLAWLESSLY. In addition, Lissa's colleagues during the day of, Abby and Gio, went above and beyond, and they even took surprise candid polaroid pictures to put in my guestbook which was such a sweet surprise the next day! 10/10 recommend!

Greta was such a joy to work with from the start. Her communication, work ethic, and desire to ensure wedding couples have an organized, easy, stress-free day is top notch. I specifically even complimented/commented on how well the day was running and it seemed so seamless which is a testament to how well planned Greta made the day. Many wedding days can run havoc if a wedding coordinator is not involved, which leads to stress not only on the wedding couple but vendors and guests as well. This is why all couples should hire Greta to make their day fabulous! I'm looking forward to working with her again!

I had the best experience with The Venlist. I was fortunate to work with two great planners, first Kyra, and then Brittany. Kyra really understood what I was going for and was excellent at helping me plan, so I was bummed when she left. However, Brittany is absolutely amazing. She’s the absolute best at what she does. She goes above and beyond for you and she will definitely deal with any vendor issues you may have. Brittany is the main reason why my wedding vision was properly executed and brought to life. The Notion platform was perfect in keeping track of all things wedding, and I loved the style of it. Brittany is such a great person and easy to connect with. I will definitely keep in touch with her even after my wedding.

Like many in the industry, I fell in love with planning weddings when I started planning my own in 2017.

There is truly not enough praise I can give to fully encapsulate Carmen. We started to work together right after I had booked my venue and we were the best team all throughout my wedding planning process. Even when I didn't have a true vision for my wedding in the beginning, Carmen knew just the right things to ask to see what I envisioned and she made all of my dreams come true (and more). During the planning process, Carmen is incredibly easy to communicate with. She sends regular check in emails and kept me in the loop with everything that was being done, needed to be done, and any vendor related updates in addition to zoom/phone calls. The software she uses is also incredibly user friendly and made all of the finer details so easy to visualize. On the day of our wedding, Carmen was somehow everywhere all at once and dealt with any hiccups with total grace. She conducted the set up and tear town with ease- it has truly been a pleasure to experience her work firsthand. Planning a wedding is hard work and choosing your planner is a major part of your big day. They're the person you'll spend the majority of your time with aside from your partner. I would not hesitate to recommend Carmen to anyone looking for an organized, thoughtful, and well-rounded planner.

Amaka and her team took over like we wanted and literally covered everything. The best part was how they helped us save tons of money on our wedding. Don't be hesitant in booking. Book them with confidence and I promise you will not be disappointed. Everything about your wedding will scream luxury and will be well organized. The price you pay is well worth it Somehow they found a way to even get my husband involved in the planning process because Amaka made it a fun process. She also gave us a planning book to help keep track and our own personalized google sheet that literally had everything including our guest list and how everyone would be seated. Amaka was always available when needed and if she wasn't, she delegated someone else. My husband and I loved attending vendor visits with her and she would always offer to treat us to lunch/dinner whenever we had appts. They went ABOVE and BEYOND to make sure the wedding was blissful. I recommended her to a friend who has a destination wedding next year and they are already in love. A planning company that knows what they're doing, very honest with you rather than telling you what you want to hear and extremely resourceful. We also got to save on decor because they provided rentals since we booked the full service planning and Amaka with giving us tips on how to save on decor. We wanted them to actually do the decor :-( but they couldn't at that time and was honest about it. However, I am excited about ariscreationz doing the decor for my friend's wedding.

Kolena & her team at Blue Sapphire Events are STELLAR. My husband and I have hectic jobs and I am an evening student which meant we needed all the help we could get to plan our wedding! In stepped Kolena, who helped us design, plan, and execute the most perfect day. We wanted to put up a sailcloth tent and hold our entire event outside at a family member's home. That involved bringing in EVERYTHING - the tents, the tables & chairs, the bars, the plates & glassware, the restroom trailers! and so much more. Kolena managed everything for us - from vendor sourcing to rental coordination to the burdensome permitting process for the tent. She was onsite for every site visit, the tent/rental setup, the rehearsal, and the day itself. From the very beginning, Kolena was capable, calm, and so thoughtful. We were married in May but I don't like pinks & pastels (your traditional spring wedding palettes). Without missing a beat, Kolena designed a gorgeous, lush green & white palette with black accents. She listens and really understands her clients -- it felt so US. Because our event was at a private property, we couldn't accommodate parking for our guests. I was particularly worried about ensuring the shuttles were reliable & ready for our guests. Kolena handled the entire process - from sourcing different quotes through the contract process and on the day-of to make sure everything went smoothly. On the day of our wedding, Kolena seamlessly helmed a vendor team of close to 25 people. She brilliantly suggested we put ponchos on guest chairs, in case it started to rain during our ceremony (it did) and transitioned our cocktail hour from outdoors to under the reception tent at lightning speed. As you can see, I have endless good things to say about Kolena & her team at Blue Sapphire Events. She works harder than almost anyone I've met, she's creative, she truly cares about every one of her clients, and I'm so, so grateful that she lent us her talents to make our wedding day perfect!

Peña & Co. grew from a love of weddings and bringing order to so many moving pieces and parts. I was part of a wedding that didn't have everything planned out, and I saw how that affected the Bride & Groom and knew then that the details help create unity and peace. My aim is for you to have joy and peace in your day and to truly enjoy each second. I have been coordinating for 3 years, served over 25 couples, and was trained in the south in both Greenville and Charleston, SC. I have loved mixing Southern comfort with DC splendor. I want to celebrate you every step of the way!

From the moment my fiancé and I engaged their services, we knew we were in for something truly special. First and foremost, their attention to detail is unparalleled. Peña & Co. truly listened to our vision and brought it to life in ways we never could have imagined. From our initial consultation to the last dance at our reception, their team was there every step of the way, offering guidance, support, and a reassuring presence. They handled every curveball with grace and professionalism, ensuring that our day went off without a hitch. Thanks to Peña & Co., our wedding day was everything we hoped for and more. We cannot recommend them highly enough to anyone looking to turn their wedding dreams into reality.

If I really included every way that Island Creek Events went above and beyond to make my day and the whole planning process perfect, this would be a novel. From the beginning, Katharine was attentive, detail oriented, and answered my hundreds of questions with a smile on her face and thorough information. Not only did she keep me on track and keep me sane via email and phone calls, she came to multiple site visits to make sure everyone was on the same page and we all felt comfortable with logistics. Katharine and her team have a magical way of making you feel like your day is the ONLY day on her calendar despite supporting other events, and we truly felt like we got the VIP experience. She was quick to respond whenever there was a concern, she even helped me negotiate some last minute hiccups with our venue that felt too overwhelming to handle on our own. Her level of organization is outstanding, and all of the random thoughts or ideas that I had floating in my brain she jotted down to take all the weight off my shoulders. When it came to the day of the event, she put out more fires that I can count and some I wasn't even aware of. She was the reason that our wedding day was perfect, our guests were happy, and made it an unforgettable night for all. 100/10 recommend Island Creek Events.

Born and raised in Maryland, and will forever be a Maryland girl at heart. I relocated to Virginia in 2015 after graduating from the University of Maryland, College Park (GO TERPS). Now, I live in Northern Virginia with my college sweetheart, our 3 rescue pups and our baby boy. I started my planning journey in college, planning my sorority's events, along with various corporate and charity events. After graduation, I started shadowing wedding planners in the industry, learning the ever-changing world that we call wedding planning, and the rest is history! I love making couples dreams a reality!

If you don’t have a day of coordinator, look no further! Laura and her team have been incredible. I reached out to Laura after she was the coordinator for my friends wedding and have not been disappointed since that day. Laura has been the utmost example of professionalism and organization. We chose her day of coordinator services as I was pretty confident about my planning abilities, but we didn’t want to have to do anything on our day of. If you do not feel confident with planning, I would seek out her services for full coverage planning as she did just a stellar job with sending us vendors, connecting with the ones that we had, and helping us with all the details. Day of our expectations were exceeded! Once her team arrived, Kayla and Ivy, we didn’t have to do a thing! The day of our plans changed a lot and they really kept us on time. We had to deal with a tropical storm that popped up two days before the wedding, which was wholly unfortunate. Our venue and everything was inside, however we wanted to take our first look and party photos outside. On the day of the coordinators helped us find an additional space to take photos in and took care of everything. It was so great to have Kayla and Ivy by our side because I didn’t have to worry about anything, I didn’t have to look at the schedule, I didn’t have to worry if that was set up correctly, or this was set up correctly or if vendors had arrived and we’re on time and tell them where to go etc. etc. It felt great to just spend my entire wedding day relaxing and enjoying the beautiful day it was. Thank you Laura, Kayla, and Ivy for making our event the absolute best that it could be.

We made a somewhat last minute decision to hire a “day of” just to help with some set up and tear down of decorations. But now, after the wedding, I cannot imagine having made it through the day without Michelle. She accomplished everything we needed and things we had no idea we needed - from ensuring tables were in the right place, to making sure people were where they needed to be. Michelle was the absolute best and most helpful. She was somehow everywhere at all times and knew every movement throughout the night. We could not have done it without her. Beyond five stars!

We are a team of creative professionals who specialize in coordination, design and planning. We offer full, partial or month of wedding planning and design packages. We also do bridal showers, baby showers, birthdays, retirement or engagement parties. Our design team provides full and partial venue design and execution.

When it came time to plan our own wedding, we weren’t completely sold on the idea of a wedding planner, but our friends told us how we should consider it because of their experience with Create You Events. For them, Vicky and her team were able to assist with a lot of the burden of wedding planning and coordination and said their help was definitely worth the added cost. We remembered the positive first impression we had when we saw them in action at our friend's wedding and decided to have an introductory call. Vicky and her team were very flexible on the services and packages to meet our specific needs. We ultimately decided to have them help us with planning, design/decorations, and day of coordination. For planning, Vicky and the team showed their expertise in the wedding industry. For us, we weren’t as familiar with all the terminology and customs for weddings and Vicky was able to guide us through everything from the best way to talk to vendors and what to look for when touring our venue. She helped keep us on schedule in terms of what work needed to be done throughout the months leading up to the wedding date, and was great at motivating us throughout the process. She and her team stayed up late through the night to do planning calls with us, and were always available and responsive for any questions we had. The team members were so patient and understanding, and great sounding boards for every detailed decision, no matter how small. When my wife had minor decision fatigue melt-downs over whether or not to pay extra for chargers and colorful linens, or which exact flowers to include in the bouquets, Vicky and her team were there to talk through our thought process and help us get to a decision we felt comfortable with. We also had the Create You Events team help us with designing our wedding invites, menus, programs, and signage, which all came out beautifully. They really understood what we were looking for in terms of colors and styles and were able to just take some sample Pinterest pictures to be able to make amazing designs for us. As for the wedding day itself, we ran into many logistical issues with our venue and the (lack of) venue staff. Vicky and her team really stepped up to fill in multiple roles last minute, and make sure everything went smoothly for us. There were so many issues that we didn't even know about, and the Create You team handled them seamlessly. Looking back, we’re so glad we decided to spend the money to have the Create You Events team help us for our wedding. If you’re thinking about having a team help you out for an event, we highly recommend hiring Vicky and her team. Their support and guidance during our wedding planning process and during the wedding day itself were really indispensable.

As owner and lead wedding planner, Janice has her hands on every Bellwether wedding. She’s a logistical virtuoso with crazy-high standards. She’s never met a detail she couldn’t wrangle or a problem she couldn’t solve. You can always expect Janice to keep it real — a communication style you’ll be thankful for when dealing with budgets, wedding day mania, and drunk Uncle Ted.

I have had the pleasure of working with Bellwether Events many times. From my 10 years experience of working in the wedding industry, I found that some planners are only good at logistics (timeline, having things in order, managing vendors, etc.), some planners are only good at design and creativity, some are only good at client relations and relationships with the family. Bellweather is excellent at all of these things and I see how she consistently nails every category at every single wedding I have worked with her. If you want your event to shine and to have the absolute best experience from the beginning to end, Bellweather is who you need.

This is a way too late review for a spectacular wedding planner and event designer who brought to life the wedding of my dreams in June 2022! Lauren and her team truly provide a 5-star experience in every way and more. Before I met Lauren, I had a vision for my wedding, but really wasn't sure how to bring it to fruition. I was walking through the "steps" recommended in different timeline sheets, which in itself is very tiring, and starting very big picture. But as anyone who has planned a wedding knows, the details start to become very, very overwhelming - especially when there's a specific look and feel you want for your wedding. Where do you invest your time and money? That's where Lauren was a lifesaver. Some key moments in our work together included: aligning us via several conversations and an inspiration deck (really important for making sure you're on the same page), meeting me at a rental facility to walk through design elements together, coordinating with family members to make sure she got a comprehensive picture of what really mattered to me (bless my partner, he couldn't care less), and "secretly" working with family members to make the vision "bigger and better" and surprise me. Lauren also has an IMPECCABLE eye for how to bring all the million details together. She hand-selected and/or advised on every detail, from utensil colors to linens to stamp types to wax seals - all the tiny details that create a full "experience" for you and your guests, but by the end, you don't have energy to pick yourself! Moreover, Lauren is incredibly professional, warm, direct, patient, and supportive - all traits you need in a planner and designer. She will also tell you what she thinks, which is essential, particularly in the home stretch! By the end, Lauren was responsible for creating the wedding of my dreams. I can truly say it was the most magical weekend of my life, and while all weddings are so special when you have the people you love, it doesn't quite feel *spectacular* without all those details coming together. I am happy to share photos of my event with anyone who asks, or simply look at Lauren's instagram for her incredible work. Thank you, Lauren - we were so lucky to find you!!! 3

Our experienced team of event professionals believe in starting with the fundamentals, the essence and energy of our couples. We foster meaningful, deep connections that enable us to instinctively understand who our couples are, how they live and how they love. With that type of knowledge, we can create gorgeous wedding experiences that are vivid, personal expressions of our couples’ lifestyles, their love story, their taste and their personalities. We create weddings that our couples will cherish for a lifetime.

I’m not sure who is the bigger genius: the professionals at HowertonWooten, or ME for hiring them!! When my now-husband and I had our first call with Kawania, we knew immediately that we had found our team captain. Kawania radiates warmth, expertise, knowledge, and understanding and those values are reflected throughout the HW Events organization. Kawania created a bespoke package and experience that reflected our needs and our budget. She was a supportive and grounding force as she helped us design our wedding before another member of her team - LaShonda - took over to put everything into action. LaShonda was such a joy to work with. She made me feel heard, understood, and supported - even when my parents were trying to push for their own choices! - and made sure my husband and I were happy with each and every decision. I had an easy time trusting her and her ideas. Our wedding day was flawless thanks to LaShonda’s diligence, creativity, and leadership. Everything from the ceremony rehearsal to our last dance and send off was perfectly executed and easy. Our entire wedding party raved about LaShonda and her incredibly helpful schedule — a HUGE bonus for this Type A/control freak bride. I knew LaShonda had everything covered - even things I never thought of - so I was able to fully relax in the days leading up to the wedding and on wedding day. The only thing I had to worry about was getting dressed!! My only complaint is that our business together has concluded — I will miss Kawania, LaShonda, and the entire HW Events Team! I guess we’ll have to plan an anniversary party!! TLDR; Do not hesitate to hire this team. It will be the best and smartest decision you make.

We hired Alexis's team to be the day-of coordinator for our wedding reception and are so pleased that we did. She was helpful in making suggestions, decisions and changes and coordinating with various vendors when confusion came up. It was a huge relief to know that she would be the one to expertly handle those last minute issues, and she was able to solve several of those issues (unsurprisingly, I made a few mistakes). Our wedding was small and casual, and despite her usual role running highly produced weddings, she was supportive, encouraging, and flexible to roll with our vision. A week before when a couple of unexpected issues came up, Alexis met with me at the venue over a drink to talk things through again and provided authentic support that turned around my whole energy about it all. Her team member Nicole was our onsite coordinator and she took my materials and impeccably delivered on the look and setup at the venue. It was a huge value to have someone prepared to listen to what our vision was and then make some of the last decisions and judgment calls to get it there -- because my husband and I are decidedly NOT event professionals. Thanks Alexis and Nicole for making sure we didn't have to manage details on the day of the wedding and for your support in the weeks ahead of it!!!

I had the pleasure of working with Imagine It to plan a wedding at the W Hotel in Washington, DC, under the direction of Andrea Taylor. To say the least, they completely exceeded my expectations! From the moment we met, I knew that I was in good hands. Imagine It was incredibly well-organized, detail-oriented, and proactive in making sure that every aspect of our wedding was perfect. Throughout the planning process, Andrea was always available to answer any questions or concerns that I had. She provided me with regular updates and suggestions, and was always willing to go above and beyond to make sure that our vision for the wedding was executed. Her communication skills were exceptional, and she was able to keep me calm and stress-free throughout the entire process. On the day of the wedding, Andrea was an absolute lifesaver. She was on top of everything, from coordinating with vendors to making sure that the wedding party was where they needed to be at all times. Her attention to detail was impeccable, and she made sure that everything ran smoothly from start to finish. Overall, I cannot recommend Imagine It enough. They are true professionals who truly care about their clients and go above and beyond to make sure that your special day is everything you can dream of and more. If you are looking for a wedding planners who will exceed your expectations, look no further than Imagine It.

Hi, I'm Charlene, My passion is weddings! It's my absolute joy to work with you to create a memorable wedding or event. When I see that big smile at the end of the night, that is my reward! I discovered my passion for weddings and events when I helped with Decor and set-up in a large church. I pursued my passion by taking college courses for wedding consulting. I went on to earn my Planning Certification through American Association of Wedding Professionals (AAWP.) I've always been an organizer, administrator, and communicator and this career allows me to use my extraordinary God-given talents for my clients . I live and breathe weddings!

Charlene came to my rescue when my previous coordinator dipped on me and took my money about a month prior to our date. I had asked for referrals from a vendor, and he suggested Charlene, and she quickly requested a consultation. As soon as we hired her, she jumped into action asking for all my contracts and information I had since I already did most of the things. Charlene was prompt with responding to my emails and asked all the right questions. Charlene did more for me within that month than my other coordinator ever did in the last 2 years. Charlene was kind and direct, and gave many suggestions to elevate my ideas which was very helpful! Day of our wedding, I couldn’t have asked for a better turnout. I had an idea of everything I wanted, but gave her and assistants freedom to change anything they saw fit. Charlene, and her assistants Megan and Rene brought all my ideas to life better than I imagined! I was very happy with their service and their friendly/positive vibes. They were very quick with timings and helped me with everything, that I didn’t have to worry about a thing! I wish I had hired Charlene from the beginning, but things happen for a reason! I would HIGHLY recommend Charlene and her team to anyone looking for her services!! Thank you so much for everything, you were a life saver!!

I have been planning weddings and events for 15 years. After college, I worked as a meeting planner for several years, while also earning my International Wedding Planning Professional certification (IWPP). My love of special events is what convinced me to start my own business. I love working with clients to create their perfect vision. My goal is to take away the stress of the day so that my clients are able to enjoy themselves. I am able to help by suggesting venues and vendors, site visits and contracting, communicating and working with vendors, on-site coordination, setup, and post-event cleanup and follow-up.

When somebody understands your vision and makes it better, you’ve found a real treasure. My dear Dianne: what and how should I thank you? This dream came to reality because of you: your work ethic, your attitude, your vibe and abilities but, especially, your passion are INCREDIBLE. You read our thoughts and helped us on a journey to make a dream happen: from the smallest detail to the biggest decision, and even when we almost collapsed with your “minute by minute” We could not be more grateful. The love for all you do is what makes you a real deal. You are NOT A PLANNER, you are an absolute DIRECTOR. You listen, you take action, you make the groom and the bride feel they are really taken care of and… you also know how and when to make us cry, leaving the decision to us but always sharing a humble opinion. Thank you THANK YOU for your hard work, thank you for being the real deal, and a wonderful finding. I know who sent you. For everyone, please don’t hire her instantly; just listen to her for 2 minutes and then you will understand why she is your one and best option. We love you!! Art and Clau

All the amazing reviews of Tiffany reflect my own experience as half of a clueless couple whose hands Tiffany held for over a year. Where do I even begin... Tiffany was the first vendor we hired for our wedding, and from then on, she helped us assemble a dream team. We hired Tiffany for the full planning package. With her years of experience planning events and weddings of all sizes in the DMV area, she was able to introduce us to our beyond professional make up artist, cake designer, florist, and catering team. We had a lot of questions and she simply knew all the answers. Our friends and families marveled at how relaxed we were about our upcoming wedding, but there was literally nothing for us to worry about because we were working with Tiffany! Tiffany KNOWS wedding planning and takes great care of her clients AND their families.

I was placed with Brittany who truly is the best of the best at what she does. She went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable, happy, and at ease before and during our wedding. We did the month of coordinator package and I have absolutely no regrets. Brittany was SO attentive, she made my bridal party and family feel well cared for, she made sure me and my husband always had a drink or food in front of us, she alerted us of anything that needed addressing… I could go on and on! She is the best. The sweetest. And I am forever grateful she made our day as good as it was. HIRE THEM!

Events are a part of everyone’s lives. Weddings in particular are an important event that many of us get to experience hosting just one time in our life. A wedding is also widely known as one of the most stressful days of your life – that’s where we come in. Between the two of us we have planned over 185 weddings from the day after engagement all the way to closing the car door as the couple leaves for their honeymoon.

Megan is an absolute gem!!! She saved me when my florist backed out of my wedding 17 days out. Her quick thinking and call to action made me feel so relaxed especially on my big day. Hiring her 3 months out from my wedding was the best thing that could’ve happen. She also just happens to be an amazing person who makes you feel like you’re just talking to your best friend. Cannot recommend her enough!!

Life is about enjoying special moments. It is all in the details and we pay attention to your needs and create an event that reflects your personality. We work hard to ensure each detail is captured and memorable. Let’s work together and have an unforgettable moment.

Natasha worked with Bianca for our wedding this past October, and let me just say this up front to any bride/groom: you may THINK you are type A and can handle any and every small detail in your wedding. You may THINK "how many decisions could I possibly need help with if I already have all of my vendors selected and every event for the weekend is in the same place? EASY." Welp, let me tell you folks--it is decidedly *not*. We had our wedding at the Intercontinental on the Wharf: all 3 wedding events throughout the weekend. I hired Natasha as some decisions were becoming mildly overwhelming and her prices were *chefs kiss*. When I say she and Bianca saved the day MULTIPLE times during our weekend, I am not overstating. She made every vendor organizational correspondence and handled all last minute questions they had--it was the best decision I made about the wedding (minus the groom, he's #1 ;)). Do yourself a favor as the price is MORE than absolutely worth the help and bliss Natasha will deliver you--BOOK.HER.IMMEDIATELY. She also already has working relationships with numerous vendors and locations in the city, which was astoundingly helpful. Seriously. Just book her and truly enjoy your wedding planning process!

I am beyond grateful to have had Jennifer as my wedding planner. From beginning to end, Jennifer was a trusted advisor and resource when it came to ideating, vendor selection, contract reviews, and recommendations based on my vision. I had secured a few vendors before working with Jennifer but her recommendations came in handy as we continued the planning process. I am VERY detail oriented and thorough. Jennifer was a great support in helping my partner and I actualize our dream day. She was not pushy, she listened to what we wanted and gave suggestions based on her expertise. Even in last minute vendor chaos, Jennifer got it done! She made sure nobody stressed us out during the month of the wedding. Her team was also great the day of, we were pretty chill as a group but they were there the entire time checking in on us. Jennifer is relaxed, knowledgeable, and thoughtful. We worked together for 11 months and it was clear where we were in the planning process. I over communicate and we have an outrageous number of emails and texts. She was right in step with me, hahahhaha! She went above and beyond, I could not recommend her more. I am very particular about who I work with, Jennifer is the truth! My day was perfect and she made sure we weren’t bogged down by any vendor issues. Oh, and my wedding was on-time! Whenever I do a vow renewal, I’ll hire Jennifer again (or just invite her because we are family now!) Execution- 10’s across the board! Communication- Text, email, phone, social media! I probably had three different conversations going with Jennifer at the same time, hahaha! Price- Very reasonable. Pay her what she asks, it’s worth it!!!
