Our wedding was postponed in 2020 and 2021 due to COVID. This year we decided to finally do this thing. With two months to finalize plans. And a budget of roughly 6K. Our wedding coordinator, photographer, and caterer were no longer available. I posted in one of my Facebook groups looking for help and Johnnie came to the rescue right away. She helped us narrow down food options and find affordable entertainment, HMU, and photography. Our wedding was a super casual lakeside affair. Our venue was a former girl scout camp and we had weekend events all over the grounds. Once the golf cart got there, Johnnie was zooming around, making sure that everyone and everything were where they needed to be when they needed to be there. She went above and beyond, and if there were any hiccups in our big day I didn’t (and still don’t) know about them. I don’t think you can ask for anything more. I highly recommend hiring Johnnie and Co Events for your event planning needs!!

Ja'el and her team at The Coordinated Collective were a match made in heaven for our May wedding. From our initial consultation call with Ja'el we were hooked because of her experience in the industry, advice she gave us, and her attention to detail. Our detail-oriented brains work similarly so the planning resources the company provided were spot-on. Most importantly, Ja'el and her team treated our wedding as unique even though the team had at least 2 other weddings to tackle the same day. She listened to our concerns and validated our experiences every step of the way. We'll really miss working with her team and highly recommend The Coordinated Collective to anyone planning their wedding in the DMV.

Where do I even begin with Evelyn and Love & Laughter Weddings? Working with them for our NYC wedding was like having your coolest, most organized friend magically transform into a superhero wedding planner. Five stars aren't enough! From day one, they got our vibe and ran with it. The whole process felt less like business and more like planning a giant party with your best friends who happen to know EVERYTHING about weddings in the city. It was all heart eyes and high-fives from start to finish. The attention to detail was on point. I'm talking about Insta-worthy details that had our guests snapping pics left and right. Our wedding wasn't just an event; it was a personalized masterpiece, carefully curated by the Love & Laughter team. And can we talk about their local knowledge? They didn't just recommend venues; they curated experiences. We ended up with a wedding that was so 'us' it was like they peeked into our dreams and made it happen. What sets Evelyn and the entire team at Love & Laughter apart is their infectious energy. Wedding planning can be stressful, but these guys turned it into a series of laugh-out-loud moments. They made us feel like we were planning the coolest party of the year – and spoiler alert, it totally was. Our wedding day was a blast, and we owe it all to Love & Laughter Weddings. If you want your wedding to be a party and not just an event, these are the people to make it happen. Youthful, professional, and downright awesome.

I know that wedding planning can be a daunting process but I'm here to help navigate you through all of the craziness that comes with planning a wedding. I'm your planning BFF and hype-girl from the moment you get engaged to cheering you on as you bust a move on your wedding day!

Lissa and her team was absolutely wonderful from the initial contact up to the end of our wedding day! No matter what kind of wedding you're having, she will make you and your partner feel like you have all of her attention as the most important couple. Throughout the whole process, she was so professional and supportive, even with not as traditional ideas. She had such a quick response time, usually within a day, or a couple hours, and sometimes even sooner! Her attention to detail in making my timeline was also amazing and I felt that we were able to have the whole day planned to the dot before the big day. On the wedding day, she made sure everything ran so smoothly and we were not stressed out at all! We had some small hiccups with the layouts that our venue had set up, but a quick word from Lissa had them fixing the issue. She's the perfect amount of assertiveness, professionalism, and friendliness with everyone, including the guests. The largest thing that stood out to us was how much all of our other vendors loved Lissa and working with her, and we could see it throughout the day. Our venue had restrictions such as a short setup window, but Lissa communicated with them and navigated the situation very well to make everything go smoothly. Even though we had a venue management person for the day of, it was nothing compared to working with someone that truly focuses on you and your needs. Our vision was captured beautifully, and we do not regret hiring her at all!

When we set out to find a day-of coordinator for our wedding, we had a clear vision – someone who could bring our décor dreams to life and ensure we could relax and soak in every moment on our special day. Enter Evviva and the amazing Kat – our dream team in every sense! Kat's approach was spot-on during our lead-up calls. She delved deep into understanding us and our vision, asking thoughtful questions that reassured us we were in capable hands. Her communication skills and kindness extended to all our vendors, earning her accolades as the most organized day-of coordinator from our venue coordinator. On the big day, Kat and the Evviva team were nothing short of a dream. Upon arrival, they gracefully tackled a well-intentioned chaos caused by the venue team. My carefully organized décor boxes had turned into a bit of a mess, but the Evviva team quickly stepped in, fixing everything that didn't align with our vision. During the wedding, Kat was an ever-present positive force. Guests noticed her attentive care, ensuring everyone's needs were met. A standout moment was right before I walked down the aisle, with Kat offering a reassuring smile and a reminder to take a deep breath – a small gesture that encapsulates her positive and supportive presence. We can't express enough gratitude to the entire Evviva team for making our wedding the most perfect day. Hiring them was one of the best decisions we made, and we'd do it again in a heartbeat. Cheers to Evviva Events for turning our wedding dreams into a beautiful reality!

Carmen and her team made wedding planning easy and enjoyable. From the beginning, Carmen worked with us to develop an aesthetic that was elegant and personal to us. If we had a specific vision for something, she showed us how to execute that vision within our budget. If we weren’t sure what we wanted, Carmen presented us with different design options to help us figure out what we liked. She had great ideas, and we trusted her judgment completely. In choosing vendors, Carmen presented us with various options within our budget and gave thoughtful notes and recommendations. If we wanted to consider vendors outside our planned budget, Carmen was always ready to discuss additional options as well as ways to offset additional costs if we decided to spend more in one category. We trusted Carmen’s recommendations completely, and she never led us astray. Once we chose vendors, Carmen made sure our contracts addressed all of our needs and helped us understand industry standards and expectations. As we got closer to the wedding, Carmen took full responsibility for communications with vendors and even fielded questions from our family and wedding party in the lead up to the big day. This was a lifesaver and allowed us to focus on the important things. On the wedding day, Carmen and her team ensured everything ran perfectly. Someone from Carmen’s team was always nearby if I needed something--but I didn’t because it was all so well planned! Between the ceremony and reception, Carmen’s team set aside two of every appetizer along with two of our signature cocktails to ensure we got to try everything. When we arrived at the reception, everything looked beautiful. The set up and take down happened so seamlessly we weren’t even aware of it, and anything we were taking home was packed up and placed in our bridal suite waiting for us at the end of the night. It really was our perfect wedding. My husband and I, along our families, will always be grateful to Evermore Occasions for giving us the celebration of our dreams!

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.

  • Serves California, MD

After 25 years as a full-time wedding planner and event designer based in Washington, D.C., Veronica Cole created Keep Calm And Wed On. We believe that couples should not have to sacrifice the luxury of professional guidance and experience of a wedding planner simply because you don't have a large budget. We help you save time and money on your wedding planning journey to keep calm and select the best vendor that fits your needs without breaking your budget. By combining our virtual wedding planning services with wedding day management, we can assist couples from anywhere in the world!

Veronica was patient and so helpful throughout our wedding planning process. I am someone who had no idea what she wanted for her wedding. Veronica took me to many different types of venues and helped me envision multiple different types of wedding to help me narrow down exactly how I wanted our special day to look. We partnered with Veronica as our full service planner and she did full service, and then some. She handled issues I didn't even know about until well after there was already a solution or it had been solved already. She made the process seamless and we had a PERFECT wedding day. I can safely say without her expertise, we would not have been able to pull off the Washington, DC wedding of my dreams.

Will & Rose Events works with a personalized approach, taking the time to get to know your style and understand your vision for the day.

Ricki was the absolute best investment I made in my wedding. She was so easy to work with and is single-handedly the reason my wedding went off without a hitch. From our first meeting to loading up decor at the end of the wedding day, she was amazing, enthusiastic, and professional. She went above and beyond in dealing with vendors and took so much off my plate. She also saved my mental health in the months/weeks leading up to the wedding, not bothered by my many questions and random thoughts and happily answered them all. She took my random thoughts and my very rough vision for decor and ran with it. I was stunned and amazed when I saw how everything turned out. She also was amazing in dealing with an unhappy venue staff member at the end of the wedding, ensuring our evening was perfect. So much so that we didn’t realize anything had happened until the next day. I cannot recommend Ricki and her team enough!!

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!

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.

My experience consists of a Bachelors in Business with over 10+ years of experience in hospitality specifically, Venues, Luxury Flower Design and Catering. I thank being a Gemini for being mutable to each couple. I can see each vision in my mind which helps me execute based on who you are and what you want to express as a couple in your union.

We are thanking our lucky stars that we had the opportunity to meet and work with Genevieve. On our first call with Genevieve, we were immediately impressed by how calm and professional she was. Genevieve was our day-of coordinator; however, she helped us stay organized with wedding planning at least three months in advance. She eased our nerves through each step of the process. She gave THE BEST recommendations for a florist and baker, and she helped us stay connected with all of our vendors. We loved that she was familiar with many, if not all, of our vendors already. She was incredibly kind, and literally brought all of the ideas we had in our heads to life. She also shared great ideas, such as using a polaroid camera for our guests to add photos to our guestbook. This was a hit at our wedding! It was also so fun and special for us to look through the polaroid photos. We are also grateful that she reminded us to order food to snack on while getting ready on wedding day. In short, our day turned out better than we could have imagined thanks to Genevieve's calm demeanor, kindness, professionalism, organization, and attention to detail. We highly recommend using Days and Eves for your wedding.

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

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!!

We booked Adrienne and her team to help plan our reception and they delivered beyond our expectations! My husband and I had gotten married with just our families present, but always planned to have a large reception with our friends and extended family. From our initial call through the day of our reception, Adrienne made sure that every single detailed was handled. What I loved most about working with Adrienne was her creativity and flexibility. We had a strict budget on some things. After getting our customized design book with images and pricing for our big day, Adrienne worked with us to source the vendors and items we wanted to stick within budget. I am pretty sure we asked her to make adjustments several times and she was more than happy to do so. To any brides planning weddings, I would highly recommend Adrienne and her team to help execute your day!

Cassidy was absolutely amazing to work with! I was pretty clueless to a lot of the smaller wedding details and Cassidy was incredibly helpful. She was amazing to work with throughout the entire process and was especially great on my wedding day. Everything was perfectly set up when I got to the venue and she was great at letting our friends & family know where they needed to be and making the whole event run seamlessly - I didn't have to worry about a thing other than having a good time! Her online planning tools were super helpful and her communication with my other vendors was also great. It was so great to have her as my planner. Cassidy was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! 10/10

Shaymah was extremely organized with a very chaotic wedding - chaos due to family drama, etc. While the chaos was stressful, Shaymah was very detailed and thorough with all of the wedding planning, including designing florals and signs completely on her own (great designer too!), and including last minute issues with guest count, etc. She's very sweet, kind and helpful and great to work with! I would recommend her for any type of wedding event. She was also very professional through all of the chaos and made sure that the event went well!

I also model & have walked in NYBFW. I'm came out as queer later in life & have been loving every minute of it. I love dyeing my hair different colors. My favorite genres of music are disco, funk, & pop music. My spouse & I love to travel & have visited 9 countries so far. There's no such thing as too many house plants. I have a cat (Filly) & a dog (Finn). I can't wait to get to know you :)

Allie is an incredible coordinator who approached Gabe & Mike Levitt's wedding with both confidence and joy. You can tell that she is not only great at taking action and staying organized, but that she also enjoyed the process throughout. As a fellow vendor, I had the pleasure of working alongside Allie for both the rehearsal as well as the entirety of the wedding day. On both days she was communicative, confident, knowledgeable, and overall very involved in making sure that every person in attendance was where they needed to be, doing what needed to be done, as well as -enjoying themselves-! To newlyweds who are considering O.M.Gee Events, you will be able to relax and better enjoy the process knowing that Allie is on top of details and ultimately in your corner!
