Lizzie Noble Events

  • Offers 4 services
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Shady Side, MD

I am an expert planner with a passion for weddings. Prior to wedding planning my background includes luxury corporate events and political events. I have previously planned events for the Vice President of the United States and the White House. In the last several years I have brought that same attention to detail and expertise to the wedding industry. I handle all the logistics, details and coordination so the couple can sit back and relax knowing everything is covered. My sole focus is to have the couples I work with feel understood, taken care of and know the joy of wedding planning without the hassle or headache.

Lizzie really went out of her way to beautifully design an event we worked on together in a way that made photography smooth and easy. It's lovely work that I'll definitely use in my portfolio.

Vision of Gold (VOG) Events

Severn, MD
  • Offers 3 services
  • Starts at $3,000

Your wedding celebration should be a reflection of the both of you. VOG Events has proven to be an invaluable resource throughout the entire wedding planning process, creating a reduced stress experience. We incorporate the details that speak to you and your fiancé's story by guiding you every step of the way so you can not only enjoy the planning process but, most importantly, your wedding day.

Working with Robin of VOG Events was a great decision! She gave us lots of vendor suggestions but gave us the freedom to make decisions on our own. Working with other wedding vendors and signing contracts can be filled with new language, but Robin was very knowledgeable and took the time to help us understand the things we didn’t understand throughout the process. She also gave great tips on what to ask for or look for when choosing vendors and making decisions about minor details and how our day would flow. When it came to the wedding day Robin and her team executed things flawlessly! If something did go wrong we would have never known because they always had everything under control. Robin and her team were prompt, professional, and very personable.

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.

Working with Maddy and Cass was one of the best decisions we made while planning our wedding! They helped us with our timeline creation and were our day of coordinators, and they helped make our wedding day absolutely perfect! They were extremely professional and organized, while also being so much fun to talk to and work with! They were attentive to every small detail and captured our vision so well. Maddy and Cass went above and beyond and helped take SO much stress off of our shoulders during the week before our wedding by being on top of vendor communications and letting us drop off our decorations with them ahead of time!

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 worked with her in the months leading up to the big day, and she provided great vendor recommendations that set us up for success. I was concerned I was going to be worried and stressed about setting up the venue and the overall timeline for the day but Maddie had it all under control.

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! As a wedding planner and bridesmaid (x 10), I've seen pretty much every crazy scenario and I've got your back no matter what because you deserve the best experience possible! **Please inquire directly through my website**

Awarded Best of Zola
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!

We partnered with Veronica as our full service planner and she did full service, and then some.

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!!!

Greetings and salutaion! I am a blue haired, tattooed geek girl wedding planner with a love of dragonflies & offbeat events! I have also been wedding planning since 2004. I haven't met a DIY project I can't wait to try, a scrapbook page I didn't want to make, or a cosplay idea I didn't want to put together. Watching all the different elements come together to make something come alive is fantastic. I approach all my events the same way. Helping a client pull together all of their puzzle pieces to make an event that is uniquely theirs is the best feeling!

Our wedding was going to be so simple, if you ask my husband. Tee-shirts. Taco truck. American Legion. Guests. Done. Even he had to thank Fran profusely for all of her foresight, thoughtful touches, and management skills. This was a second wedding for both with kids and exes on both sides. It went off flawlessly, thanks to Fran. Our wedding ceremony and reception were on consecutive days. She printed and framed ceremony pics to display at the reception. She kept an eye on tipsy guests and let us know about potential issues. She found seats for the guests who I had carelessly left off the seating chart. She picked up, deployed, and returned the table cloths and had special little decorations for our table. I couldn't possibly list all the things she did to make the day run smoothly and to make us feel cared for and loved. Thank you Fran. You almost make me want to do it all over again.

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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

Imagine a wedding that truly reflects your unique love story and personality. At Howerton+Wooten Events, we are dedicated to making that vision a reality. Our experienced team takes the time to understand your essence and energy as a couple, forming meaningful connections that reveal who you are, how you live, and how you love. 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.

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.

Events by Tyra is a black-owned, woman-owned wedding and event planning service provider based in Maryland. All are welcome! We offer full service planning for the couple that wants to make decisions, but doesn't want to be bogged down with all the details. Partial planning is available to couples that want to be more hands-on with hiring vendors and handling details, but might need just a bit of help when it comes to design and vendor management. Wedding management is perfect for couples that have already selected their vendors, planning their wedding, and are looking for help for the last couple months leading up to the wedding.

I rarely meet anyone in life that is as Type A and detail-oriented as I am, but Tyra was my match. I've done a lot of event planning in my own career, but you really can't be your own planner especially in the weeks leading up to the wedding on the day itself. Tyra thought of absolutely everything I needed her to think of and more! And no matter how well a wedding is planned, there are always weird things that pop up as you get to the finish line and during the wedding itself--Tyra handled all of those so my hubby and I could enjoy the day. She had absolutely everything covered to the point that I actually felt a bit guilty about how little I did because, hello, that's my personality. As for Tyra's personality--well, she's the best. Super duper friendly, professional and like a good BFF, not afraid to give it to you straight. Highly, highly recommend. P.S.--This was a second wedding for my hubby and I, and it was a very small group. If you figure you don't need a planner because your wedding is going to be intimate, you're wrong. Trust me when I tell you that you still need someone to coordinate with the vendors, make sure the ceremony musicians aren't dead, talk you through a tuxedo crisis, and literally sprint to jump into your officiant's car, who is lost and driving around the mall looking for the venue. ;)

Wedding planning can be overwhelming, time consuming, and just plain stressful.

We know how long you've dreamt of this day and how important it is for your wedding to go just as you planned. AMAVI works together with some of the best vendors in the DMV to give you, your groom, friends and family the best day ever!

I highly recommend choosing Brooke as your planner! She took my vague ideas and helped me execute exactly the wedding I had imagined (actually even better). She suggested ways to elevate the design of my wedding that I never even would have thought of. She gave me expert help when trying to find a florist in my price range. Brooke was incredibly responsive throughout the whole wedding process and able to answer all of my questions. She took care of things (like the timeline of the day) that I would not have been able to do without her expertise. And to top it all off Brooke and her assistant executed everything perfectly on my wedding day and I didn't have to worry about a thing.

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!

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!!

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.
