What truly set Michelle apart was her ability to seamlessly blend into the events while still capturing every important detail. She managed to be everywhere at once without being intrusive, and her calm demeanor was a steadying presence during such a busy time. She was a safe face/person that weekend for sure!

I LOVED my look for the day and Claudia and Alena were also very personable on top of being amazing artists! They perfectly translate the ideas I had for my hair and makeup into a seamless look. I also really appreciated that Claudia did not try to cover up my moles or freckles on my face which kept my look more natural. Additionally, I could tell Alena had looked into my references for my hair between the trial and day of and I really appreciated that level of dedication.

Bianca is incredibly talented and just the best! She did the makeup for my May 2024 Indian fusion wedding (both for my wedding day and my Sangeet), and I could not have felt more beautiful. Something that was incredibly important to me when deciding on a MUA was finding an artist that is well experienced with a variety of skin tones. Bianca absolutely killed it while doing a variety of different looks. Leading up to my wedding, I went to Bianca for a few facials. The actual experience of the facial was so relaxing, and my skin was so hydrated and glowing leading up to my wedding. After my wedding, I also asked Bianca if she could do a makeup class for me. She had made me feel truly so beautiful (but still like myself). The class made makeup approachable for someone who has very limited makeup experience. She was SO thorough afterwards in all the materials she sent me with instructions and products listed to be able to recreate the looks we went over. I cannot recommend Bianca enough for all of her services!!

A Virginia native, I’ve been surrounded by nature my entire life, but never more so than when I spent summers on my Grandmother’s 300-acre farm in West Virginia. She raised me to appreciate nature’s beauty and explore what I could create myself. My Grandmother was a powerful woman, raising two babies after having been recently widowed, while also pioneering the farm and putting herself through law school. It is after her that I named my business Mountain Mama Florals. With every event and every client, I strive to provide the level of attention, appreciation, and creativity that she taught me to value.

Hello! My name is Stephany, the owner of sipsdmv! At the heart of our business is a passion for making your most important moments truly unforgettable. We founded this business in the DMV area to fill a unique need: providing both expert mobile bartending and/or meticulous day-of wedding coordination. We know that the key to a successful event isn't just a beautiful setup or a delicious drink—it's the peace of mind that comes from knowing every detail is handled. Our mission is to take the stress off your shoulders, allowing you to be a guest at your own event and savor every perfectly poured memory.

We had so many things go wrong at our wedding and though we didn’t use Steph as our bar choice, we had her as our day of wedding coordinator - she stepped up when the bar was unprepared and our cake vendor failed to arrive. Though these were out of our control, she made things happen with such grace while my wife and I didn’t suspect anything going wrong in those moments. Can’t recommend her enough!

We can’t say enough good things about Andrea Green Events! We hired Andrea about 6 months before our small-ish April 2025 wedding, and at that point all we had was the venue and catering booked. She jumped right in, was super organized and professional, and really listened to our vision. She has an amazing professional network and helped us to secure vendors that were right for us, and made the whole process feel manageable and fun. And she saved us some money without sacrificing what was important to us! On the actual wedding day it rained, and though we hoped it would stop, we had to switch the ceremony indoors at the last minute. Andrea handled it like a total pro—coordinating with all the vendors and keeping our families calm and where they were supposed to be—so we didn’t have to stress about a thing. The day turned out absolutely beautiful, even better than we imagined, and we know that’s because of her. We ended up with a break in the rain immediately after the ceremony and guests were able to enjoy the beautiful weather and scenery overlooking the water during the reception. We couldnt stop raving about how beautiful it all was, and our guests had a wonderful time. We didnt even know about minor hiccups with guests and vendors until weeks later because she made sure it was all handled. We truly couldn’t have done it without Andrea. If you’re thinking about hiring her, don’t hesitate, you’ll be so glad you did!

From the very first conversation with Tiffany, I knew I was in the best hands to bring the wedding of my dreams to real life. Tiffany is not only incredibly talented and professional, but one of the kindest souls you’ll ever meet. She made me feel like a high priority and without any encouragement or reminder, she was always brainstorming decor ideas for my wedding. She wanted to hear about our love story and understand our vision, and somehow, she turned all of that into a stunning wedding plan that reflected us in every detail. She created a beautiful vision board right after our first meeting that instantly brought our ideas to life. I wanted blush and gold details throughout the wedding but on a budget. From there, she built a timeline that made the entire process feel so much more manageable. I was able to enjoy the months leading up to the wedding stress free because I knew I was in good hands and cared about our wedding as much as I did. Wedding planning can be overwhelming, but she kept me grounded with monthly reminders, gentle check-ins, and clear guidance on what needed to be done and when. On the actual day there were a few hiccups (like an issue with our cake vendor), but I didn’t even know until after the fact—because she handled everything quietly and gracefully, without ever letting it affect the joy of the day. She also set up the décor more beautifully than I could have ever imagined. Walking into that space and seeing everything come together so perfectly took my breath away. I was able to enjoy the day of the wedding by peacefully getting ready and being present with my family without having to be concerned about vendors or wedding set up. I can say without a doubt that anyone would be so lucky to have Tiffany as their wedding planner/day of coordinator. I truly can’t imagine this experience without her, and I’m endlessly grateful for everything she did to make our day as magical as it was.

I love how exciting and creative wedding photography can be while also giving me the opportunity to create something that is so meaningful to others. I got started with photography back in Michigan as a kid with my mom's old Minolta SLR. It wasn't until years later at art school in Kansas City that I realized how fulfilling and exciting wedding photography could be. It has been my focus ever since.

I highly HIGHLY recommend Asa! He and his colleague photographed our December '24 wedding and they did an AMAZING job. Asa has such a calming presence and on such a chaotic and stressful day it was so, so needed. He was so wonderful to work with in the planning and helped us make a thoughtful plan to ensure we got all of the photos we wanted. We had a traditional Catholic mass and he and his colleague were able to easily follow all of the Church's rules while capturing the essential moments flawlessly. We got every photo we wanted during the mass which was incredibly impressive. We also got shots at sunset by the water and Asa perfectly captured our vision! These are some of our favorite photos. He also captured all of the energy and fun that we had and we walked away with multiple photos of every single one of our guests which was such a treat. Lastly - his pricing is so fair and really competitive to all the photographers we got quotes from. He was easily able to work with our budget and was flexible to our specific needs. Overall - I would HIGHLY highly recommend Asa!

Once the music started, they transformed the atmosphere. Their ability to read the room and build energy made the performance feel effortless and immersive. Attendees—many of whom are not easy to pull onto a dance floor—were singing, dancing, and genuinely having fun. Guests continued to talk about the band long after the event ended, which is the kind of impact that elevates an entire celebration. For anyone planning a corporate gathering, gala, or wedding, The Fearless Eras offer the rare combination of reliability, musical talent, and crowd engaging energy. They deliver an experience that feels both polished and personal, making them a memorable highlight of Bloomberg Day and a strong choice for any event where entertainment truly matters.

  • Planner
  • Offers 4 services
  • Starts at $2,500

A DMV/Panhandle of WV Full Service Wedding Planner. I am a hopeless romantic with a passion for organizing and planning—naturally leading me to become a wedding planner. I’ve worked in the events/wedding industry since 2016 and love the hustle of a wedding day! My goal is to bring your vision to life and make the planning process stress-free. Personally, my husband Kyle and I welcomed our first baby boy in August 2024 and are expecting a baby girl to arrive August of 2026. We also have three crazy Cocker Spaniels! We love to travel and try new restaurants.

Casey and her team were absolutely amazing! I was looking for a wedding planner and happened to meet Casey at the bridal expo in DC. After a quick consultation, I knew she was the one. We used her services for day of coordination, but she started a few months prior to my wedding. She helped with the timeline provided excellent feedback, was always available, extremely organized, and detail oriented. She absolutely went above and beyond, and I’m so grateful we had her as a planner.
