  • Serves Gainesville, VA

Let's face it, every couple needs wedding planning help and traditional full-blown wedding planning is super expensive! At The Venlist, we're providing a modern way for busy couples to get wedding planning help at a price point that fits their budget from coast to coast.

Awarded Best of Zola
We LOVED working with Brittany. We had monthly meetings with her for over a year, from the venue search phase to the handoff to our month-of coordinator, and she was so helpful. She helped us with the searches for everything—venue, DJ, photography, day-of coordination, flowers, catering—and provided us timelines and organization tools that were genuinely invaluable. We had very little idea going in exactly what was needed to plan a wedding, but Brittany’s collaboration made us feel very on top of things. She also worked with us to troubleshoot things when issues arose (like our flower provider not following some of our communication requests). And an added bonus is that she’s fun to hang out with lol—we really enjoyed our monthly meetings!! Would absolutely recommend the Venlist (and Brittany specifically)!

Avenue Design Studio - Wedding Planning 

5.0

  • Offers 6 services
  • Starts at $250
  • Serves Gainesville, VA

At Avenue Design Studio, we began as a floral business, but quickly realized we could offer so much more to our clients. Over our 10+ years of working with couples on those special lifetime moments, we found ourselves stepping in to assist our brides and event clients with planning, vendor coordination, and overall event management. This inspired us to shift our focus and create Avenue Design Studio, a full-service event planning and design company. Whether you’re looking for full-service planning or just need assistance with specific aspects, we provide multiple packages and a la carte options to fit your needs. You dream it, we create it.

From start to finish working with Avenue Design Studio was a fantastic experience! I had an initial call with Chad and based on that I knew they were professionals who could bring my vision to life through floral design and day of coordination. Then they continued to provide clear and open communication throughout the planning process and were able to make suggestions as needed to advance my vision. The week of the wedding I was in contact with Morgan who would be our official day of coordinator. Morgan ended up saving the day when our bartender cancelled on us last minute; she stepped in and bartended on top of coordinating. Then she was able to work with me to donate our flowers to a women’s shelter; a cause that hits close to home for me. I cannot recommend Avenue Design Studio enough!!

Your event is a collaborative effort, and I am here to listen to your ideas, incorporate your vision, and make it come to life. Whether you want to be cc'd on every email or prefer I take the reins and save you decision fatigue, I've got you covered. Expect transparency, detailed timelines, vendor referral guides, and other valuable resources that ensure every detail is covered! f a restaurant reception is your vibe, look no further. Having been deeply involved in the restaurant industry, I know how to navigate venues and work closely with owners, giving you an advantage in creating an unforgettable experience for your event.

I cannot recommend Lush Event Co. and Rachel enough!! Our wedding day was flawless! We chose her full-scale planning package and it was so worth it! We had just moved to Pittsburgh when we started planning and knew nothing about which vendors to use or even which venue to pick. Rachel made our lives so much easier by setting up tours of venues and finding us something that matched our vision and met our needs. Throughout the entire planning process, she was always available to answer questions and offer guidance. She kept everything organized on a Google Drive that we had access to and she was always available via email or text. Her knowledge of vendors in the Pittsburgh area was so impressive. Every vendor she recommended received a 5-star review. Any problems that came up with vendors leading up to the wedding were addressed so quickly by Rachel that I didn’t even have time to be stressed about it. I wasn’t worried about the venue, vendors, or the timeline going into my wedding day because I was so confident she knew exactly what we wanted and was so organized. She was on top of everything on the day of the wedding and ensured we had everything we needed and that the day ran so smoothly. If you are looking for an extremely diligent, organized, creative and professional wedding coordinator with a passion for her clients, I strongly encourage you to use Lush Event Co.

Hi, my name is Katrina! I have been coordinating weddings for almost over a decade now. I started doing weddings with my mother who was an event planner and designer at the time and fell in love with the process and being part of such a beautiful occasion. I work with clients directly from weeks to several months to help curate, design, execute making their dream come to fruition!

I had the pleasure of working with Katrina as our wedding coordinator and I cannot speak highly enough of her attention to detail and meticulous planning. Though I had 15 people in my wedding, due to covid, it still felt like a dream come true getting married that day. She had planned a mini surprise for my best friends to come and see me before I got married which was very special. I thank Katrina for making my wedding a memorable one and even though it wasn’t traditional because of covid, she was still able to bring out what I had envisioned for my covid-19 wedding. Her quality of service was superb and I highly recommend.

I am a wedding planner certified by the Wedding Planning Institute at George Mason University. I am based in Springfield, VA, and work throughout the DC, MD, and Loudoun County, VA. As a fun-loving, adventure-craving 20-something, I am also your girl for destination weddings at any spot on the globe! I discovered my passion for wedding planning while designing my own. I would get comments about how "on top of things" or "how organized," and I soon began receiving requests from other engaged couples. I quickly discovered the joy of creating that special day that people have been dreaming of their entire lives and, soon after, launched SWP.

Penderview Events truly went above and beyond to make our day PERFECT. As a DIY and meticulous bride, we knew Anna was the one we would entrust with our vision the moment we had our phone consultation; she was so incredibly sweet and enthusiastic about our big day, and I immediately felt a sense of ease that she will be able to handle all the shenanigans and i can pass her the torch with ease. Although she was hired for "day of", she assisted us in any way possible months leading to and made sure we were on top of all the important tasks leading up to the day of (i.e. vendors contact info, finalizing timeline for the morning/day of, etc.). My big day unfortunately started off disastrous (I became car sick), so I was unable to give guidance with the decor during set up. But since one of the tasks Anna asked me weeks prior was for a list with all the decor and how/where I wanted them placed, Penderview legit made my vision come true!!!!!!!! Penderview was so attentive, that they were even able to place some items which I gave no instructions for (i.e. last minute decided that we wanted wedding party to sit during the ceremony, so I made name placement cards for the reserved chairs, and without mentioning it, they were placed on the chairs in processional order). Penderview was able to execute every event and details on the timeline FLAWLESSLY, and I was able to enjoy the event with ease knowing that everything was in such capable hands. We felt and saw how invested Penderview was throughout the day in making it perfect for us, especially the attention to details and handling all the logistics smoothly behind-the-scenes. I also really appreciated Anna’s assertiveness when hiccups would arise (ie, making sure guests wouldnt be walking in while were ready down the aisle/stay out of view, wedding party prioritized drinking and forgot to come back for portraits; flower girls kept running infront of camera during portraits, and so many other headaches i did not want to deal with, etc.) Not only was Anna able to accomplish and execute my vision beyond expectations, but she was also my emotional support and my right-hand lady, making sure I was always hydrated. Anna’s empathetic and kind demeanor made her feel more like a close friend than just a ‘day of coordinator’. Hiring Penderview was the best investment we made. Thank you so much for making our day magical and we will forever be grateful to Penderview!!!

I am easy going and super fun. I love weddings and honestly if you want to send me an email at midnight because you are excited about something; I might actually answer it and with equal excitement. I love to talk; however, if you are an introvert, I don't push it. I listen to my clients and adapt to their needs. With 13+ years of customer service experience I prioritize you.

Angie is beyond amazing! We hired Angie when the venue’s coordinator was a little unresponsive and unreceptive to our preferences. Angie got things under control so fast and worked seamlessly with our vendors. She worked tirelessly to make our wedding special and stress free. I really don’t think we could have gotten everything together without her. I can’t imagine there is anyone out there who could do a better job than her when it comes to wedding planning. She is always quick to respond and take any stress away from the couple. Also, she found us the most amazing videographer on short notice. Thanks for everything Angie!!

I am an event planner by trade, and the only thing I did not want for my wedding was to work. I did not want to plan it myself, or worry about a single detail day of. We interviewed so many planners, and Kolena stood out among the crowd. She is organized, creative, bright, and incredibly professional as well as friendly and relatable. On the day of our wedding, Kolena handled all of the set up, coordination, and tear down without bothering my husband or I with anything. She managed family, vendors, timelines, and all the day of fires with precision and grace. And at the end of the night, when I got to my room and the decor was boxed, labeled, flowers were in water, and nothing was left to be done, I actually shed a tear. Hiring Kolena was, aside from choosing my husband, the best decision I made for my wedding. You can’t put a price on ease of mind and no stress on your wedding day.

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.

Diane was easily the best decision I made for my wedding. From the very beginning she had lots of helpful planning documents, answered every question I had, gave us ideas when we couldn't figure out how or when we wanted something to happen for our special day, stayed over time on our planning / check in calls to make sure we felt that we covered everything, and did all of this with a smile and supportive, kind attitude. You're going to spend a lot of time with your wedding planner / coordinator, so it's important that they're a good person and you like them! Well Diane is a gem of a human being, and I really do feel like I made a forever friend in her. Throughout the planning process and on the day, there were times when I just needed emotional support, and she was there for me. Her communication is prompt, consistent, and thorough. She got back to me on every email in a timely manner with all the answers I needed. I didn't realize at the time but strong communication was probably the MOST important aspect that made working with vendors 1000x better, and Diane excelled at it. Additionally, in the lead up to my wedding day and on the day itself, Diane was on top of EVERY detail. She went above and beyond to make sure that everything was PERFECT - just as I always dreamed it would be. From helping me iron my wedding dress while my bridesmaids and I were getting our makeup done to overseeing every vendor arrival and setup to making sure transitions from each part of the day were smooth - she did it all. No detail was too small for her, and because she's a total professional, she thought of everything! I cannot say enough good things about Diane, her abilities as a planner, and her warmth as a person. She will be the best decision that you make for your wedding, too.

I went with Prestige Planning for my wedding planner because of the ease of use. I met with my certified wedding planner before I booked and she was amazing and explained the whole process. I knew I could plan my own wedding but I’m not a pro at all so I knew I would need a lot of help. I didn’t want to spend the money on a full wedding planner so going this route was absolutely perfect. They were with me every step of the way. I especially liked the SOS calls they give because I needed them to assist with a vendor I was having an issue with. I knew I was going to need help with logistics and stuff on the actual day of my wedding because I wouldn’t have time to do so, so I added the coordination add on to my package. So I got my wedding planned with major help from an actual certified planner and coordination for my wedding day for less than others are charging for just coordination. Just go for it. You will not be disappointed at all! They really went above and beyond and did more for me than what they had outlined they would do. I got more than my money worth.

I cannot recommend Brittney enough! From our very first consultation, she instantly put me at ease—we clicked right away, like we had known each other for years. She’s incredibly approachable, responsive, and genuinely cares. I felt comfortable asking her anything throughout the process, and she always had thoughtful, helpful answers. We hired Brittney in August 2024 to coordinate our wedding on November 23, 2024, and she quickly became an invaluable part of our planning. In the months leading up to our wedding, I faced a serious and unexpected medical emergency that required over a month of recovery. During that time, Brittney truly went above and beyond, stepping in to handle communication with our vendors and ensuring every detail was taken care of seamlessly. Thanks to Brittney, our wedding day was completely stress-free! She created a detailed timeline for the day, making everything run smoothly and effortlessly. She came prepared with her Bridal Emergency Kit, which had everything we could possibly need (and more). Another fantastic resource Brittney offers is her rental website, which allowed us to rent practically everything we needed. It was a budget-friendly option that made planning even easier. Brittney even made sure we were able to eat during our reception and that we fully enjoyed our special day. Her care and expertise made all the difference—we truly had the best day ever thanks to her!

I’m so happy I got the chance to work with Michelle as my month-of and day-of coordinator for my August 2023 wedding. By the time we started working together a few weeks out from the big day, I was so tired and burnt out from planning and needed the help and support that she expertly provided. She came in hot with lists, templates, spreadsheets, recommendations, everything I could’ve hoped for to support me through the rest of the prep process. Most importantly, she made sure that everything that needed to happen was done correctly, on time, and in the way we needed. She was ON FIRE on the day of the wedding. Michelle was in the zone- creating beautiful centerpieces, coordinating each step of the event, and problem solving before I even realized there was something to be done. Thank you so much, Michelle. You helped make my wedding day absolutely perfect!

Introducing J.J.Ash Events And Designs, your premier partner in crafting unforgettable wedding experiences throughout D.C., Maryland, and Virginia. Led by the seasoned master planner, Ashanti Neal, our team is dedicated to translating your individual style into a celebration that reflects your essence. At J.J.Ash Events And Designs, we thrive on building genuine connections with our clients, taking the time to understand your vision and aspirations intimately. Ashanti and her team are passionate about guiding couples through every step of the planning journey, infusing each detail with creativity and precision.

Working with J.J. Ash Events and Designs for a Jacksonville wedding was an absolute dream. I was the cake artist, and Ashanti handled the florals. When the bride shared her vision, I immediately thought of Ashanti because I’ve worked with her before and absolutely love her work. She’s one of the rare designers who can balance creativity with realism while delivering flawless execution. For this wedding, we had to transform an inspiration photo into a glam-style red wedding design, and Ashanti absolutely delivered. The bride wanted florals showcased inside acrylic tiers for the cake—a unique and challenging concept. These acrylic tiers had to be sourced from London, measured precisely, customized with Ashanti’s florals, and transported from Virginia to Florida and survive 3-4 days. Not only did the floral design make the journey, but it also held up beautifully throughout the wedding. The result? Stunning florals that tied the cake seamlessly into the overall wedding design. The bride was overjoyed, the guests were amazed, and I was blown away. Together, we created a once-in-a-lifetime piece for a deserving couple and seeing the bride’s ecstatic reaction made all the effort worth it. Ashanti’s talent speaks for itself, but what truly sets her apart is her professionalism. She’s communicative, detail-oriented, and incredibly down-to-earth. She knew exactly how to bring the vision to life and worked closely with me to ensure every detail was perfect. Honestly, I couldn’t have pulled this off without her expertise. Good on J.J. Ash for requesting reviews from vendors and guests—it’s a smart move that highlights the joy they create for couples. I’ve seen Ashanti and her team work tirelessly through weddings, sometimes staying until the very end (I’m usually there past the cake cutting, haha!). By the time the dust settles, the couple is married, their photos are stunning, and their videos capture every magical moment. Reflecting on those moments reminds me how much of a privilege it is to be part of such special events. As a vendor, I appreciated how communicative and organized Ashanti was throughout the process. She asked all the right questions, provided clear instructions, and made herself available if I needed clarification. Unfortunately, not everyone in this industry is that dependable. I’ve seen vendors drop the ball, fail to respond, or avoid accountability—but not J.J. Ash. Ashanti and her team were on top of every detail and worked to have all vendors comply and work together seamlessly. Their dedication and professionalism made this collaboration a joy, and the end result was nothing short of magical. Their results don’t lie—J.J. Ash Events and Designs truly delivers excellence. Hats off to Ashanti and her team for creating unforgettable moments for their clients. I can’t wait to work with them again! — @ButtercreamPlease • Modern wedding and celebration cakes

With this deep understanding, we design stunning wedding experiences that are vivid, personal reflections of your lifestyle, taste, and journey together. The result is a wedding you will cherish for a lifetime, a beautiful celebration that is unmistakably and uniquely yours.

Words cannot define the worth and joy it was to have Kawania and her team be a part of my wedding day. She was a constant advocate for our needs and budget throughout the process, being realistic at every turn. What I know now is that what you get with Kawania is experience and know-how of the industry. She has planned several weddings and events before and knows how to troubleshoot mishaps that may happen on the wedding day in real time. She understands that the day of the event is a special moment for everyone involved and she knows not to bring stress to the wedding party and to allow them to live in the moment. At subsequent weddings, I have felt that my friends needed this approach with their planners on their wedding day/weekend. I, being their guest or in their bridal party felt the disorganization that their planners or self-planning brought. This was not the case with Kawania. We had glowing comments about our wedding day for even a year after and how it was not just a ceremony but a day of entertainment. She is an excellent communicator. We had regular meetings throughout the year, about once a week. I have seen my friends have wedding planners who do not get back to them for several days after they have a question about their wedding. Kawania brought my vendors to me instead of me having to look for vendors on my own and when one did not work she always had another one that could take the place. She set up meetings with me and my vendors one-on-one and reviewed all of our vendor contracts to make sure that we were getting a fair contract and that expectations for the vendor and for us were both reasonable and what we were looking for. Being a very busy working professional I appreciated that Kawania went above and beyond to make sure that I stayed on the schedule and was extremely patient when there were moments when I could not. I value how she brought my vision to life and had such great attention to small details that my day was exceptional. I have seen my guests feature elements of my wedding at their subsequent events and it speaks to how she was able to set the bar high for what a classy and unique event should be. Far beyond a wedding planner, she has become someone that I keep in contact with after the wedding. She even checked in on me when there was a major catastrophic event that took place in the area where I lived months after the wedding. There were even moments when I became uncertain or stressed and focused on the wrong thing when it came to my wedding. Kawania, quite like a mother figure helped me realize what my focus should be and to ignore all other distractions so that when I walked down the aisle, I was in full confidence of how the day was going to be and did not feel a single ounce of stress on my wedding day. I could not be more thrilled to work with Kawania again. Although I do not see myself getting remarried I would certainly work with her for any big event I needed in the future. She has such a positive energy and global about her and brings a light to every interaction even difficult ones that makes her pleasant, respectable, dependable, and all around the absolute reason why my big day went off such success. I cannot state how tirelessly she and her team worked so when I did meet them in person but felt like I was meeting friends who knew exactly what I wanted. You will not regret working with Kawania and Howerton Wooten events!

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.

Create You Events was the reason why our dream wedding became a reality!! My husband and I consider ourselves to be good planners, and like other couples, we thought we could make do without a wedding planner. We were only looking for a day-of coordinator when we reached out to Create You Events. We interviewed Vicky and realized the value she could provide us throughout the planning process. We quickly changed our stance and hired her as both our day-of coordinator and wedding planner. This was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. The amount of time and mental energy saved was beyond worth it. Vicky and her team's guidance kept us on schedule and organized during our nine-month timeline. Vicky was able to handle all obstacles in stride. No challenge was ever too big for her, and that calmed many of our nerves. What sets Vicky and her team apart is their ability to complement the areas that my husband and I lacked. We were transparent with those aspects which we weren't as prepared for and our budget constraints, and they would always found solutions or presented us with alternatives that met our needs. There were countless times when Vicky would save the day by bringing up things that we wouldn't even consider! She was great with vendor management and helped identify vendors that fit our criteria. In addition to Create You Events' planning and coordination service, we also opted for their decor services. What was the most dreaded part of planning for us was no longer a challenge. Trust me when I say they made all of our worries go away when it came to decor and signage. We were able to provide our vision and they delivered on every little detail. The arrangements and signage fit the elegance of our theme and venue perfectly. It was a huge benefit having a team that already understood our vision and was attentive to every request. Where do I begin for the day-of coordination? Vicky and her team were the calming force to our chaotic day. We wanted to maximize our day, so we planned our timeline down to the minute. From their planning, they set up our day so that we didn't have to make any major decisions. All we had to do was follow the timeline they put together for us. This allowed us to enjoy our day and appreciate the little moments we would have otherwise missed. Even when things that were out of our control went array, Vicky and her team didn't even flinch from the pressure and were quick to find a resolution, having no impact on our day. Simply put, we couldn't have had a perfect day without the involvement from Create You Events. The planning, decor, and coordination was stress free for us and allowed us to allocate our time to other areas that required more of our individual attention. Vicky and her team were incredibly easy to work with and we felt comfortable enough to share all of our circumstances with her. We will always give the highest recommendation to Create You Events to our friends and family for their wedding and/or any major event. We are still left in awe by how they were able to listen to our vision and run with it. We definitely won't miss wedding planning, but will miss our planning calls with Vicky. Just knowing we had the certainty and guidance from her made us feel like everything would be alright. Vicky, can we still have calls with you to help us plan the rest of our life? Hands down the best wedding

Having Macy as the day of coordinator for our wedding was the best decision we made - our wedding day was 100% stress free! We had no idea about what needed to be considered when having a wedding, but Macy had all the questions ready and helped us think through every detail. Macy is so kind, thoughtful, organized, communicative, and took away all of our stress leading up to the wedding day by being so organized and prepared! She coordinated with the different vendors to ensure a timeline was created and distributed for when each would arrive. I didn’t have to worry about a thing except for confirming details for her. She made sure the wedding party and our parents were at the right spots at the right time throughout the evening and helped keep guests contained during cocktail hour so we could step away with the photographer for photos. She even assisted with clean up and helped pack dessert for us to take and enjoy later! Macy is by far irreplaceable in our eyes, we cannot recommend her enough! She will do everything it takes to make sure you have the best day and she was instrumental for ours. Thank you so much, Macy!!
