You’ve been searching for someone who truly gets your vision, and that’s where One Twenty West comes in. We dive into your story, your style, and the little details that matter most to you.

We’re here to make sure it’s everything you’ve dreamed of, and even more, so you can fully enjoy the moment.

I want to thank Alisha at Productionista Events for being an integral part of making my wedding day a beautiful success! Alisha is very professional and goes above and beyond her job description. She was more than my Wedding Day of Coordinator she was my friend, my therapist, and more. As many brides already know, planning a wedding can be very stressful, and you don't know which vendors to trust and have to review so many contracts. Through Alisha, I was introduced to quality vendors she personally worked with, so I knew I would be surrounded by people I could trust on my special day. Alisha even caught a scheduling mistake in my DJ's contract. Alisha is very organized, kept track of all my vendors' payment dates, and kept me on budget. My wedding day was so beautiful and STRESS-FREE, and I have Alisha to thank for that. She even helped me with the bustling of my dress (my dress had 5 layers to bustle, so you could only imagine how difficult that task was). Thank you, Alisha, for your kindness, patience, for listening to me vent on occasion, professionalism, and just being a beautiful person inside and out. I can't thank you enough! If you are getting married, please work with Alisha you won't regret it!

Full disclosure: I did not hire Marta for my wedding- but she went above and beyond for us even after when we were clear that we wouldn't be clients. DETAILS: We're getting married in NC and for some reason Zola listed her as a local planner which I didn't realize. Ten minutes into the call, we realized she wasn't a fit for our needs. Instead of ending the call right there, Marta gave us a some incredible advice about the questions we should be asking planners when we're hiring them and other tips-- this is all after we made it clear that we weren't a match. She was extremely communicative, transparent, warm, and efficient-- truly everything we could hope for in a planner.

Hey there, I’m Jami Pollnow Heath. I’m a wedding planner living and working in Richmond, Virginia. I'm a Maryland native living Richmond Virginia with my husband in our first home; a big beautiful project in Fulton Hill. In my journey down the aisle I found more than just my future partner, I found what I was meant to do; helping people like you say "I do" too!

You know those people they say are “sunshine in human form”? Meet Jami Heath, Wedding Planning Fairy Godmother Extraordinaire! There are so many reasons I’m glad I chose Jami as my wedding planner! From color-coded vendor timelines, to tablescapes, cake plates, wedding favors, flatlay photos, hand-lettered paper elements, velvet ring boxes, playlists of music, the list goes on! Jami truly leaves no design detail unturned and her thorough questions for your preferences will surprise and delight you. When your most special day finally arrives there is no one better suited to orchestrate your celebration of love. Jami remains completely calm and graceful no matter the circumstance. People may tell you “no wedding is without hiccups” but when I think back to my wedding, I don’t recall those because Jami swiftly handles it! She set tables to perfection, moved seating, fetched Coke Zero (my husband’s strict beverage of choice!), snapped Polaroids for our guest book, primped and prepped me as needed, wiped mascara smudges and veil fluffed, even going as far to stitch rips in my heirloom wedding gown mid-reception! We literally laughed so hard we cried! I never expected a wedding planner to pour so much love, energy, positivity and sheer joy into her “job”. And that’s truly because to Jami it’s not a job — it’s her calling! I couldn’t be more grateful she is written into the memories of my wedding day. Her love and care for me and our families will surely stay with me forever.

WARNING- do not hire Essence of Flair and Teyanna to do to your flowers. The one star reviews here are correct and so much like our experience. We wish we had vetted her more We spent so much time and effort explaining our vison. We sent vision boards, images, went to the Bronx to choose flowers and agreed on a plan. We said that we understood that, if our flower choices exceeded our budget, that we might need to pay more. About a month before the wedding we had to change the configuration of the tables but it had no effect on the number or type of arrangements we chose. In the end Teyanna didn't show up. Her team showed up an hour late which resulted in losing time for dancing and toasts. Her team had no plan with them and had only one type of flower which wasn't even a color was asked for. The bridal bouquet was nothing like what we agreed to and paid for and a huge disappointment. None of the other bouquets or the flower girl hair wreaths were correct. We paid for real candles and she supplied cheap plastic candles which looked awful and we were embarrassed. There were many fewer dinner and cocktail table arrangements than we agreed on and, again, did not have the flowers we agreed to and paid for. She made no contact with us and was rude to our coordinators when they finally got her one the phone. We have asked for a partial refund and she hasn't even responded. She is extremely unreliable and unprofessional. Do yourself a favor and find another person to do your flowers. Luckily, all of our other vendors were wonderful.

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!!

Awarded Best of Zola
My wife and I had a 5 star experience with Grace & Glory Weddings and Events. And that's because Victoria single handedly made our wedding happen despite all of the challenges that we, and the world, threw at her. We were originally looking for just a day-of coordinator, but it was clear after our first meeting that we needed a wedding planner. Victoria had everything we were looking for - most importantly, being a stern leader and knowing what needs to be done, without adding any extra stress leading up to, and on the day of the wedding. From the get-go, she had great advice about how to pull a wedding together, despite our lack of a vision for the details. Victoria took the lead, providing checklists to help keep us on schedule with all of the minor and major details, and taking the few ideas we had and forming them into a full vision for our wedding. She was fantastic at getting our input to make sure the wedding day reflected us. When the pandemic caused us to delay our wedding and change the venue entirely, Victoria took these massive changes in stride and blew away all of our expectations. She was on top of every detail and took care of all of the vendor coordination. She navigated the unknown caused by the pandemic with ease, and provided a calm voice with concrete steps of how to move forward. She made re-planning our new wedding day a breeze. I can't even fathom what we would have done without her. Our wedding day was better and more beautiful than we ever could have imagined thanks to Victoria’s help. She went above and beyond our expectations, and ensured everything went according to plan. We highly recommend working with Grace & Glory Weddings and Events for the least-stress wedding experience possible!

Based in Virginia and Tennessee, Will & Rose Events is an event planning company that specializes in creating elegant and memorable wedding occasions. This company is owned and operated by Ricki Lee Mares, who offers an eye for style and a passion for people. This talented planner works across the East Coast, collaborating with engaged couples throughout Washington DC, Tennessee, Virginia, Maryland, North Carolina, New York, and Pennsylvania areas. 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!!

We worked with Magnolia Collective for our wedding. We so enjoyed working with the MC team—they were incredibly knowledgeable about local vendors and the wedding planning process and were always happy to answer my (many!) questions over the planning year. They also provided me with a planning software that was incredibly useful for various aspects of planning (e.g., seating assignments, checklist of tasks)—the software kept me organized and on track and allowed me to easily communicate with the MC team. Lastly, the day of coordination was top notch! The day of staff executed all of our plans perfectly—I was able to be stress-free on my wedding day, and they took care of all of the details. Overall, I cannot recommend MC enough. In addition to being hardworking and knowledgeable experts in wedding planning, I found them all to be very kind and supportive.

As a wedding photographer I see a lot on wedding days… it’s always an added stress on me to fill the role of planner/coordinator on weddings where there is none. However, every time I get the chance to work with Mallory and her team, I know that I can relax and truly show up as just the photographer for that wedding!! Having peace of mind that Mallory is there means that if something does go wrong she will be there to fix things and adjust things, like the timeline, as needed. I absolutely trust her and her team so much and it is always such a joy to work with them! If you need someone in your corner, someone with all the industry secrets, someone who understands exactly what you need throughout the entire planning process, a friend, a problem solver, etc. look no further, Mallory is your girl!!!

I have spent the last 8 years planning, coordinating, and running events, conferences, and weddings. When the world froze during COVID, I continued my studies and got my Certified Wedding Planner certificate. It has been beyond fulfilling to bring families together and be a part of couples’ love-filled, special day.

Working with Forever By Fern for our wedding was an absolute pleasure. Their team was incredibly informative, personable, and welcoming throughout the entire planning process. They demonstrated their reliability by expertly coordinating and managing all of the other vendors, getting to know them on a personal level. The quality of their work was truly top-notch - their trend-setting ideas and affordable, gorgeous designs exceeded our expectations. As this was my first time working with a wedding coordinator, I was thrilled by how successful the collaboration was. Fern was very accommodating, checking on me throughout the evening to ensure everything was running smoothly. I truly enjoyed working alongside her and her team, and would highly recommend Forever By Fern to any couple planning their special day.

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!

Kierstin was my sister's wedding planner. My sister Alyssa had a same intimate wedding on a plantation in Hawaii. Kierstin made sure the wedding went great and She got reinvolved in with the other wedding guest and made sure everyone had fun time.

Can I let you in on a secret? The journey to the aisle isn't about figuring out logistics or picking out designs. I know that's the opposite of what you'd think a wedding planner would say, but it's true! This time should be focused on experiencing new adventures, learning new communications skills, and celebrating your two families coming together. Your engagement should be focused on loving one another in ways that allow you to feel both heard and loved because at the end of this journey is the start of another. Stress, Frustration, and Confusion? They don't belong here.

Tilly & Teal is amazing! I had the opportunity to work with Katie this month as a photographer, and she is incredible - down to earth, friendly, super talented, and puts the couple #1 every time. Over two incredible days, Katie managed every detail with grace and professionalism. She was incredibly organized and on top of every detail. I witnessed her regularly going above and beyond - from ensuring our bride and groom were calm throughout the day, to assisting with organizing details for flatlay photos, to so many hidden labors of love to make sure everything was as the couple envisioned and the experience was seamless for the couple & guests. I would not hesitate for a moment to work with Katie again. She is a true gem in the industry, and her talent and passion shine through in everything she does. Don’t miss the opportunity to have her leading your team!

I entered the Event planning market seven years ago through catering and setting up for events. I quickly learned that I loved being by the bride and groom throughout the entire event and watching their special day come to life. Getting to know the couple through the entire process and watching their dreams evolve into the wedding of their dreams stole my heart. It’s my pursuit to take all the stress off your plate and help you build the event of a lifetime. I truly want to become your best friend, go to person, planner, and even a punching bag when things just might not be going well that day, throughout the entire process

I want to give a HUGE shoutout to my wedding coordinator Chloe! She made everything so easy for me, stress free, and created the day of my dreams. From bringing me & my bridal party drinks during photos, to setting up ALL of my decor, bringing my purse (and a groomsmen she found asleep at the venue) to the hotel & she even cleaned the ENTIRE venue for me so my hungover Sunday self didn’t have to.If youre getting married soon I 1000% recommend reaching out to her. One of the sweetest, most genuine, hard working people I have ever met.
