3 Best Wedding Planners in Alexandria, VA

From our very first meeting, my husband and I knew we wanted to work with Andrea to plan our wedding. We actually left our consult debating whether to cancel our appointments with other planners. We sat down with a plan to have an indoor wedding in a hotel and in the end had an outdoor wedding at The Comus Inn. Andrea rolled with it! She did an amazing job finding venues and vendors to fit our budget and desires. She was also super responsive with communications and questions. I really felt like there wasn’t a ton for us to worry about since Andrea was guiding us along. She also took the time to check in with us in the months and weeks before the wedding to make sure we felt relaxed. On the day of the wedding I could see Andrea was busting her butt to keep everything moving along! When my dad and brothers were mysteriously late to the ceremony she very calmly let me know what was going on. I heard she was pinning boutonnieres on my brothers while they were still getting out of the car once they turned up. The wedding went by in a whirlwind but every time my husband and I stopped to take a breath we both felt like the day was exactly what we envisioned. Andrea, I am so glad we got to work with you!

Hiring Andrea to plan my wedding was the best choice I made throughout the whole planning process. From beginning to end, she helped everything come off without a hitch, and she did it cheerfully, and within our budget! She helped us find our gorgeous venue and our wonderful vendors, and she helped me to feel confident that every little detail would be taken care of. And it was! I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Andrea Green is a very professional planner who stepped in and pulled my dream wedding together in less than 30 days. She was highly attentive and made sure my day went flawlessly. I can’t thank her enough for helping me.

We booked Amanda for Month-Of Coordination and she was an absolute joy to work with! Amanda was polite, professional, prepared, and calm throughout all correspondence and day-of work. Amanda provided invaluable insight on our wedding day timeline and kindly circulated that to our full vendor team. During our venue walkthrough, she brought up so many details I hadn't even thought about, and made expert suggestions on how to address those details. I had a lot of decorative elements that were important to me, and Amanda executed that vision flawlessly. Amanda even has a collection of items available to borrow which came in great handy (easels, candles, cake stands, etc). We experienced some super last minute guest cancellations - I hesitated to text Amanda at midnight on the eve of our wedding, but she replied and addressed those changes expertly. After our wedding, Amanda worked quickly to pack up everything (it was a lot!!!), including items I neglected to make a plan for, like the bouquet and wedding cake - so grateful to Amanda for that!! I highly recommend Amanda as a courteous, organized, and professional wedding coordinator.

Amanda served as the 'day-of' coordinator for our September wedding and she was wonderful to work with! She ensured everything was set up perfectly at our venue and handled all the decisions on the night of, taking the pressure off me and my husband. Although it was the 'day-of' package, we met with Amanda twice in advance of the big day, had a venue walk through, and communicated via email and text. I would absolutely recommend Colorfully Yours Weddings & Events to any couples planning a wedding. Amanda has a calming presence that ensured our wedding day felt totally stress free and fun.
