Carice Coleman of Pinnacle Affairs was a true joy to work with. From planning my surprise engagement to our wedding Carice provided smooth communication, was very responsive and handled any issue that came up with any vendors. She was very flexible and thorough throughout the entire process. She had great vendor recommendations and an awesome checklist that made our wedding day as smooth as possible from photographer, florist, dj, etc. As the day of coordinator, Carice did not stop moving to ensure our day went as we wished, even when things occurred she handled them with grace. Her team provided wonderful support as well. I look forward to our next event because it will be a joy to work with her again. If you are reading this review, she is your woman for the job!

I’ve got to give a huge shoutout to Cassidy at Dusk to Dawn Events. Amber, my wife, already raved about her in her review, but I was so impressed with Cassidy's work that I wanted to add my own two cents—she deserves way more than five stars! Cassidy was the perfect wedding planner for us. From the first meeting, it felt like we were working with a good friend rather than just a vendor. Amber often talks about how Cassidy became her new best friend throughout the planning process, and I couldn't agree more. Cassidy made everything so easy and stress-free, guiding us every step of the way.

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.

Fern managed the wedding prior to, during, and the daunting cleanup task after the wedding. Everything was well planned, coordinated, on-time, and all the vendors were kept in the loop; making my day as the DJ for that event super easy. My clients were nothing but smiles the entire event and a big portion of that is Fern's ability to keep them calm and realize that our clients "own us" that day. Looking forward to my nice smooth event experience working with Fern.

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!!!

Brittney was great from beginning to end. She was very responsive throughout the planning process.

Marta was the most amazing day of coordinator! I was going to do everything myself and then hired her last minute. From the start she made plans to have a phone call to go over my vision. She would answer questions even outside of working hours many times because of the time crunch. She gave fantastic advice, suggestions, and answers to questions. She helped me make my timeline and contacted my vendors and even offered some of her own things to use for the wedding that I had forgotten to get! My wedding ran so smoothly and it was everything I could have wanted! She set up everything the day of even though the venue didn’t giver her a lot of time and it looked just like I wanted it to. She made sure that everyone was perfectly ready and had everything and told everyone when to walk to the music. Marta was not only kind, and professional, but she also knew what she was doing and was amazing at her job! Would 1000% recommend her for a coordinator!

We booked Teyanna in 2022 for our August 2024 wedding and did not regret it one bit. It was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Teyanna was beyond accommodating and informative throughout the entire process. Her precise, creative, and professional "client-first" mentality shone through. From countless Zoom calls to meeting up in person to select flowers, it was more than we could have asked for and were expecting. Her professionalism and creativity showed through when we had to improvise our outdoor ceremony to an indoor one thanks to a horrific tropical storm. She called us on the morning of our wedding to ensure we were doing okay and went over every detail with both my husband and me to make sure she and her team didn't miss anything. We cannot wait to work with Teyanna again in the future.

Little Acorn Events Co is a full service wedding planning, design, & production company based in Charlottesville, Virginia. We specialize in curating meaningful celebrations & distinctive guest experiences, steeped in beautiful design. Your engagement is a special and finite experience, culminating in a celebration with those you love. It is our true privilege to plan & produce luxurious wedding designs abundant with intentional touches & thoughtful details for a distinctive guest experience. Telling your love story through creative design begins with mindful relationships with our couples & a dedication to your wedding like no other.

Since wedding coordination is my career, my standards were very high and I was worried we wouldn’t be able to find a coordinator I trusted. Mia quelled ALL of my worries and blew me away with her skill and knowledge at every turn. Mia was seamlessly organized, deeply kind, and highly professional through the entire process. She started every meeting genuinely asking how we were in not only our wedding planning lives, but also just in our day to day. She truly wanted to get to know US and from that blossomed a beautiful relationship that didn’t feel contractual or forced at all. She somehow made it feel as if we were the only couple she was working with and like we were a top top top priority for her! Plus, her design suggestions are impeccable! She has taste and an eye for all things beautiful! Hiring LAE was the number 1 best decision we made for our wedding! QUEER COUPLES THIS IS YOUR COORDINATOR!!! We are a queer couple and Mia was so incredibly supportive of us and our identities the entire time. She cared about and understood pronouns, family dynamics, and more without making it a big deal. She was 100% open to throwing tradition out the window when it didn’t suit us but also totally here for upholding it when it felt right. She LOVED our clothing choices and encouraged us to embrace our true selves instead of what the wedding industry told us we had to wear. We felt truly celebrated! On the big day, Mia and her team, Macie and Tiffany, were early and on the ball! The second they arrived I could feel my nerves disappear knowing they would be overseeing every little detail. They came ready with every form (and extra copies) imaginable, dressed professionally and in line with our color pallet, and miced up for quick and discreet communication. Our wedding party and guests were raving about how kind they all were and how well they executed everything that day. As a couple, my spouse and I felt at ease and were able to let go and have a blast on our wedding day because we knew all the little details were in the BEST hands. We heard from guests that the shuttle had messed up big time and literally went to the wrong hotel. Mia and her team fixed the issue SO FAST and kept it SO QUIET that we had no idea anything was wrong and we were able to enjoy our evening blissfully unaware that our guests almost didn’t make it to the ceremony! Then, after the wedding Mia had already reached out to the shuttle company to begin dialogue about what happened and to request a refund without us even having to ask her! I cannot possibly recommend Mia and LAE enough and we will forever look back on our beautiful wedding day with fond stress free memories thanks to LAE!

TLDR: Easy communication, handles everything, calming, amazing experience. Madi helped us plan and coordinated our wedding in June at the Eaton DC. We cannot recommend her enough!! During the planning process, she was the perfect balance of being the cheerleader for our ideas, and weighing in with her own when we needed another perspective. We felt pretty unprepared and clueless about planning a wedding, and Madi was so accepting of that and really validated us along the way. She handed all of the communication and emails, which was a huge task and a relief to hand off. On the actual wedding day, Madi and her team made everything feel comfortable and easy. Madi has such a calm demeanor that we completely trusted that no matter what happened, she was going to take care of it and it wouldn’t impact us. And it didn’t! We weren’t aware of any logistics going on around us, and Madi and her team made sure it was the most special for us. Our friends and family commented throughout the night and afterwards on how great Madi and her team were. I am SO glad and grateful we had Madi for our wedding, and I wholeheartedly encourage anyone looking for planning or coordination to go with Tate Co.

Even before we signed on the dotted line, Elizabeth was hard at work taking the things we mentioned in our first call and setting up appointments with vendors. As it turned out, this would be an excellent indication of how thoughtful, efficient, and hardworking she and her team would be in working with us to plan our dream wedding(s) over the next few years. When the pandemic hit, we had already booked our date and many vendors but it was clear we probably weren’t going to move forward with our original date or vision, Elizabeth was so on top of rescheduling things and renegotiating on our contracts, we felt totally supported the entire time. She really went above and beyond. We started planning another version of our wedding on a rescheduled date and once again, another wave of the pandemic hit and we were out of luck again. While I’m sure Elizabeth and her team were as exhausted and frustrated as we were, they kept everything professional while also being incredibly empathetic to the situation. We canceled our second attempt at a wedding and went back to the drawing board. Third times the charm, it seems! My husband and I decided to scrap our plans for a big 200 person wedding bash in DC and have an intimate ceremony of 45 people at my parents cabin in PA. We proposed this idea to Elizabeth, knowing it was a huge pivot and trek for her, but without really any hesitation we shifted gears and started planning our new dream wedding in the mountains of PA. Within a matter of days, our contracts had been once again renegotiated with vendors who wanted to make the trip to another state and new vendors were found (a seemingly impossible task in rural PA). The day went off without a hitch and my husband and I look back on the whole process and wedding day so fondly, even with the nightmare of the pandemic. The day of, Elizabeth and her team were so incredible and efficient but stayed behind the scenes, making sure I knew they were there but not overwhelming us. The ceremony and reception were so beautiful and fun- she made our vision a reality. We woke up the next morning and everything was disassembled/organized and ready for the vendors to pick up. Of note, Elizabeth is also incredibly professional and will advocate for you with difficult vendors and make sure you’re not getting taken advantage of- you can tell she’s seasoned pro! Elizabeth and her team are the reason why, even after two foiled attempts, we have nothing but amazing memories from the wedding planning and actual day of! I recommend Elizabeth Carberry to anyone getting married- she and her team are the best of the best. Thank you for our perfect day, EC!
