Hiring Tiffany as our wedding planner was the best decision we made after getting engaged (besides my husband and I marrying each other of course haha). Tiffany truly brought our dream of having an intimate ceremony to life. She is extremely organized and a great communicator. From start to finish, Tiffany was there as a helpful resource. We honestly couldn’t have done it without her.

Tiffany did a great job in organizing our daughter's and son-in-law's wedding and made sure it went flawlessly. We really appreciate that, with her help, our family's special day was indeed special.

Simply put Tiffany and her team were amazing. From the beginning of this journey over 2 years ago. In the midst of a pandemic Tiffany always saw the vision and promise to deliver. And that she did. My day was magical and everything I dreamed of. Everything was more than perfect. Tiffany, I love you and your team immensely. Thank you for everything

My husband and I hired Tiffany to plan our wedding, which was originally supposed to take place in August 2020. We ended up postponing twice and ultimately held the wedding in October 2021. Tiffany was there to support us every step of the way, helping us find the best vendors and handling the communication with them. She kept us calm and focused. I don't know how we would've made it through nearly two years of wedding planning, most of which was during a pandemic, without her. On the wedding day itself, Tiffany went above and beyond. She steamed my dress and did the same for all 5 of my bridesmaids, and somehow found time to make sure the groomsmen had everything they needed, too. Throughout the ceremony and reception, Tiffany was somehow everywhere at once, making sure everything went smoothly. We had an amazing wedding day and Tiffany is a huge part of the reason why. We highly recommend her wedding planning services!

I can’t imagine how we would have made it through wedding planning without Tiffany. We started working with Tiffany almost immediately after we got engaged, and wow that was the best decision we made. With both of us working demanding jobs, it was incredibly helpful to have her guidance and support. Whether it was picking vendors, managing the needs and expectations of my divorced parents, mailing and sending save the dates and invitations, or finalizing the minute details, Tiffany was there for us. She was always calm and never ruffled, no matter what new covid guidance came through or what new idea I came up with. And then there was the actual wedding weekend. We had 9 bridesmaids, 8 groomsmen, 2 ring bearers, and 3 families. She managed all of these people perfectly during the wedding weekend, helping to bring our wedding vision alive and keeping all of our wedding party members in line. And let’s be real, that wasn’t easy (especially with our rambunctious friends!). I never had to worry about a single thing that weekend, other than enjoying every moment. She made sure every detail was exactly what I had dreamed of. Thank you, Tiffany, for everything. If anyone is looking for a wedding planner, they HAVE to work with you!

My husband and I undertook the daunting task of hosting a 200+ person ballroom wedding during Covid uncertainty. Even though Tiffany was recommended by our close friends, we ended up interviewing a bunch of wedding planners. Tiffany was BY FAR the top candidate. From the very beginning she listened to our vision and guided us towards great vendors, reviewed contracts, helped negotiate for us, maintained communications with our planning team, kept everyone on track for deadlines and payments and was a fierce advocate for us. We did a big fancy wedding with lots of details, with elaborate planning for floral/photography/music/food. The day of the wedding was SO smooth, if something went wrong, we definitely didn't know about it! My makeup artists said to me, "You're the chillest bride I ever met!" and that was 100% because of Tiffany and her team. EVERYTHING was taken care of and I had zero worries or stress during the wedding weekend. Her team was so thoughtful with details, they even decorated our hotel suite with champagne, rose petals and treats from our dessert table. If you're looking for someone who cares about details, keeps it real with you and has experience planning meticulously detailed big fancy events (or even small ones) Tiffany is your girl. We would not have survived this year of planning without her and I cannot recommend her services enough!

Our son and DIL were married 2/19/22. They chose Tiffany after interviewing several Wedding Planners. Being the parents, we wanted to be able to totally enjoy the day and not have to worry about anything!! Well, that is exactly what we did thanks to Tiffany.....she is amazing!! For us, the wedding day was flawless. We worked with Tiffany for over a year planning the wedding. She was alway professional and prepared for every meeting we had. She is also very calm, but in control! We loved working with her and are so thankful that our son and DIL chose her. She became a member of our family and we miss her now that the wedding is over. You can not go wrong with Tiffany as your wedding/event planner!!! BTW...she has a GREAT sense of humor too!

My husband and I are so thankful for everything Tiffany has done for us to help us realize our dream wedding, she has been truly amazing! I don’t know what we would have done without her. She made the daunting task of planning a wedding so easy and fun. She kept us on top of everything we had to do, made sure that everyone was on the same page, and she advocated strongly for us when meeting with vendors to make sure we were getting what we wanted. Our guests were also very impressed with how smoothly everything went, and we got tons of positive comments. We highly recommend her to anyone in the DMV looking for a wedding planner.

Tiffany was an integral part of our wedding. She helped us learn/think about factors we didn't know we didn't know. She was always supportive and patient. Her organization helped us feel at peace. Though I sent many anxious emails and texts, I never for a second was made to feel that I was being too much. We had a few DIY aspects of our setup and we truly appreciated Tiffany set up every single aspect for us while we were doing pictures. Our night would have been much more stressful without her. Of all the decisions we made about our wedding, the one I am most thankful was working with Tiffany.

I don't think I can adequately convey just how thankful we were to have Tiffany with us on our wedding day -- not to mention the months leading up to it. Not only is she one of the most competent, organized people I have ever met but she is warm, friendly, direct, and communicative -- all of the qualities that makes wedding planning fun, low-stress, and successful. We had no experience in event planning and Tiffany did such a great job letting us take the lead when we knew what we wanted, and then stepping in to offer guidance and advice when we felt out of our depth. Tiffany had great vendor recommendations when we needed them and did an amazing job coordinating between the vendors she already had a relationship with and the new ones that we brought in. We had some vendors with slightly complicated requests or needs and Tiffany was masterful at making sure they were met without compromising the needs of other vendors or the smoothness of the entire day. We had guests coming up to us days afterward to mention how amazing Tiffany was because she wasn't just there for us, she was there for anyone who needed a glass of water, directions to their table, or help finding someone. We were able to fully and completely enjoy the day because it was so obvious that Tiffany was on top of everything at every moment. At one point, Tiffany even borrowed our car (with our permission, of course!) and ran to the supermarket because we ran out of juice an hour into the reception. A friend (somewhat) jokingly asked me the next day if Tiffany was available to plan her entire life. If it's not already clear, I can't recommend Tiffany's services enough.
