CCS EVENTS REVIEWS
Colleen of CCS has knowledge, experience and sass that helped make our wedding day an absolute dream come true. I remember speaking with Colleen before we booked with her and she told us she could make our wedding day what we want WITHIN OUR BUDGET and she kept to her word. She had props that we used and went above and beyond every step of the way. Her expertise and honesty helped us choose things that were worth keeping or removing to stick with our firm budget and we were so fortunate for that. She sorted through dessert fiascos (without me even knowing just to save me the stress!) She (and her team) even loaded our cars at the end of our wedding night so neither us or our family members would have to worry about it and could continue to enjoy our night. Our family members were so impressed with Colleen and her entire CCS team for each and every one of their efforts. And the results absolutely showed on our wedding day (through not one, but even TWO ceremonies). Colleen, we are so incredibly thankful for you. You were easily the best decision in our wedding planning process.
Planning a wedding is overwhelming, but having Colleen was like a weight being lifted off of our shoulders. She had wonderful advice, has a great network of vendors, and kept us on track throughout the process. We had a couple small situations pop up before the wedding and she completely handled them, leaving us nothing to worry about. It’s so important working with someone that you can trust. I can’t put into words how amazing it felt to be stress free on my wedding day knowing that Colleen and team were behind the scenes making sure everything went smoothly. As a person, I cannot speak highly enough of Colleen. She is so sincere and you can tell she really loves what she does. My husband and I are truly going to miss seeing her! Our wedding day was beyond perfect and we are so grateful for Colleen and her team.
if you want the wedding of your dreams, you need to hire CCS Events! We hired Colleen and her staff as a full service planner for our daughter's wedding in Williamsburg, VA, that was 6 hours away from our home. Colleen took all the stress of planning our daughter's wedding. There is no way we would of been able to put our thoughts and ideas to work without her assistance and experience. She found us our award winning photographer and vendors. She and her staffs attention to detail is impeccable. She is friendly, easy to deal with and answers your calls and emails. There was no task too much for her. Our guests traveled from all over the world to attend our Persian/Catholic wedding and everyone was so impressed to the attention of every detail. I wish we could give 10 GOLD stars, 5 is not enough!.

THE HIVE WEDDING COLLECTIVE REVIEWS
We hired Lindsay to help us finish off planning a wedding that was 3 years in the making due to two pandemic related reschedules. This included a Hindu ceremony and a reception with multiple days and outfit changes. Not only was she super professional and helpful leading up to the event, she help with logistics the day of and made sure that we had somebody with our interests in mind to keep the day running smooth. Lindsay was respectful and understanding of the cultural differences that my wife and I were both bringing to the day and took the time to learn when she didn't know or understand an event or practice that we were including. The money we spent on hiring Lindsay and The Hive was the most worthwhile spend that we could have made to make our wedding a success.
I don't even have the words to describe how much of a difference hiring Anne Michelle made to our wedding day. We had reached out to a few different coordinators and as soon as we met with Anne we knew she was the perfect fit. She was so easy to work with, went above and beyond for us, and took all my crazy bride texts in stride. She gave us some great recommendations and paid for herself with just the money she saved us elsewhere (although Anne is literally invaluable and worth so much more than just that!). There are so many moving parts with weddings that we were not even aware of and I truly don't know how we would have had such an amazing wedding if it wasn't for her. Coordinating vendors, walk throughs, any day of issues... Anne Michelle handled every aspect of our wedding with professionalism and grace. It was like working with a friend who only wants the best for you on one of the most important days of your life. The Hive has built such a great reputation for themselves and you can see why in every single thing they do. DO NOT SKIMP ON YOUR WEDDING COORDINATOR!!
Ciera from the Hive Collective did a phenomenal job for our wedding! She made the process from beginning to end seamless and enjoyable. She went above and beyond to make sure that we enjoyed our wedding day! Ciera helped bring my vision for the wedding day to life. If I sent her an idea or said we wanted to add something, she was on it! She is superwoman honestly. I’m so thankful we chose Ciera, she was what we needed! We did the complete planning so Ciera was there from the early stages all the way to the wedding day. She knew the ins and outs with vendors and communicated so well with each of them! Seriously! You should book with The Hive! So thankful to have had Ciera help plan our special day!

GLINT EVENTS REVIEWS
Glint was an amazing company to work with and I highly recommend to anyone seeking a planner for their big day. Throughout our wedding planning process, their organization, ability to bring our vision to life, and class/poise were just a few reasons why we loved them! My, now, husband and I work full time jobs, and we could not have brought our vision to life without their help. Anna was simply beyond- she is everything you want your planner to be- gracious, accommodating, flexible, and fun to work with. We were so impressed by her work ethic and her attention to details, all the while keeping a calm and soothing demeanor. We can't speak more highly of Anna/The Glint team :) you're a lucky bride if you get to work with them, and you'll be in great hands. Thank you Glint!!!!
I have been a part of many weddings and I must say the organization and thought that the Glint team puts into every detail is completely incomparable. My husband and I have talked about just how easy they made our wedding day and we didn’t have to stress or worry about a thing. Just a small example, every time our drinks got to the last few sips, the Glint team had a new drink in our hands making sure that we didn’t have to lift a finger throughout the whole wedding. I truly can’t thank them enough for helping make our day so perfect and special. Worth every penny!
To say they're the best is an understatement! These ladies made our wedding day seamless, beautiful and so incredibly special. We can't thank them enough!! Due to COVID-19, we had to change our original wedding plans and Glint was able to give us the most beautiful intimate gathering. They took care of every detail, had the whole day planned out and eased every one of my concerns. Whatever your needs are or your dream wedding looks like, Glint will make it happen. If you're looking for an intimate gathering during these crazy times, check out their packages (glintelope.com); it was the best decision we made through our whole wedding planning process. Kate and Anna, I've been so blessed by you two and can't wait to see Glint Events continue to flourish!such a gift! Their team members are highly responsive and seek to bring together the strongest collaborators possible in order to best serve their clients. Richmond is lucky to have them!
