Best Wishes Loudoun

a friggin rockstar and I couldn’t have done it without her!

to answer any questions she made sure all vendors knew what they were doing and made our wedding day run seamlessly. She even handled a day of weather change to make our ceremony indoors instead of outside like a pro. Many guests and wedding party members commented on how great and on it she was. Lastly, not only did she make sure the wedding and reception ran smoothly, she also took the time to take pictures and videos of special moments and all the little details and sent them to us afterwards which in my opinion was above and beyond her job. I couldn’t recommend Best Wishes and Carisa enough for a stress free and well organized wedding day!

p (lots of spreadsheets to stay organized). And Lauren was somehow even more phenomenal on the day of the wedding! She kept me and my husband calm and vendors on schedule. BestWishes is the best wedding planner of northern VA!

lationship with other vendors who know that space, and that absolutely made things go so much smoother. As we got closer to the day, Stevie was an excellent resource for reviewing plans, making sure the timeline worked for what we wanted, and most importantly knew just what to say to leave us feeling confident and stress free about all the work we put into our wedding and reception. For the day of the wedding itself, we could not possibly have asked for a better team. Stevie was with us the whole day, making sure we had whatever we needed, taking so many extra photos and videos that she shared with us, and even crawling under the train of the dress to staple the places where the bustle had failed (honestly a highlight of the day). Angie was behind the scenes making things go so smoothly we never had to worry about our guests having a wonderful time. We truly cannot thank those two enough for helping make our wedding so memorable.

oices simpler, and fun! On our day, Stevie and her team handled every hiccup and challenge like it was nothing- ensuring our day went smoothly for us and our guests. I can't recommend Best Wishes enough!!

have made for our special day. We had the honor of working with Katherine and her team, and her prior experience with the venue and familiarity working with the on-site team allowed everything to run seamlessly from start to finish. Katherine and her team showed exceptional grace, professionalism, and an acute attention to detail throughout the entire planning process. Her positivity was truly refreshing because at no point did we ever feel pressured into decisions that did not fit with our wedding vision. Instead, she offered thoughtful suggestions, especially when we were experiencing decision fatigue, helping guide us with clarity and confidence. When preparing our timeline, there were moments when I worried that some of our requests might be “too much,” but Katherine consistently reassured me and reminded me that this was our day. That encouragement meant more than she probably knows and allowed us to plan with trust and excited anticipation. Because of her calm leadership and seamless management of our timeline and vendors, we were able to be fully present and truly enjoy our wedding day without worry. We are especially grateful for the care she took to consider our older family members who traveled near and far, making sure they felt comfortable, included, and supported throughout the celebration. The wedding was truly a success, with so many family members and friends telling us it was the most fun they’ve had in a long time. There is a reason Katherine is recognized as part of this year’s Loudoun 40 Under 40. We feel incredibly lucky to have worked with her and the Best Wishes team to create the most memorable day of our lives. Thank you, Katherine and the entire team at Best Wishes!

hecked she handled with professionalism, humor and sweetness. She is an upstanding human being with kindness and dignity! Helped us find the best florist, DJ, caterer etc that made for one EPIC incredible wedding at the Sweeney Barn. 5 giant glimmering stars all around. Thanks so much to everyone at Best Wishes Loudon! BRAVA!

sure of working with Lauren. She made everything so easy and was so on top of things! Couldn’t have asked for a smoother or more amazing wedding day thanks to her :)

recommending her). From day one, she made my wedding planning journey so easy and removed an unbelievable amount of stress from the process. Stevie is organized, proactive, calm, and truly knows weddings inside and out. She thought of things I never would have, kept everything running smoothly, and always made me feel supported and confident. On my wedding day, she quite literally saved my sanity. With everything going on, I was able to be fully present and enjoy every moment, knowing everything was handled perfectly behind the scenes. And somehow, on top of doing all of the wedding things, Stevie was also entertaining my 7-month-old baby whenever needed, making sure he was happy and cared for while still flawlessly running the day. That alone speaks volumes about the kind of person she is. She is not only an incredible planner, but also a genuinely kind, reassuring, and wonderful human. Stevie is truly an angel on this earth, and I cannot imagine our wedding without her. Book her immediately. You will not regret it!

oothly. The magic was truly in the details. Hands-down the happiest day of my life. Highly recommend Best Wishes and Lauren. Much love - Jenn

ve, organized, and thoughtful, helping us pull together all the details of our wedding without any stress on our part. We loved that we could text or email her with any questions, and she always got back to us quickly. She also recommended some fantastic vendors that made our day even more perfect. On the wedding day, everything ran so smoothly. We could just relax and enjoy every moment, knowing she had everything under control. Stevie made the whole experience fun, joyful, and truly memorable. Her care, creativity, and guidance helped make our wedding day feel personal and special, and we will always be so grateful for everything she did for us. We highly recommend hiring Best Wishes for anyone planning a wedding. Stevie helped make our wedding day the best day ever!

ally take over about 2 weeks prior to the wedding. I was a DIY bride and certainly Type A. Sydney was my day of coordinator and she took my decor and brought it to life. She also ran the day like a well oiled machine. Everything stayed on time. She checked in on me and just made it seamless. I really didn't worry about a thing! This was the best experience and I have Best Wishes to thank for playing a huge part in it!

lacement of items on the day of the wedding and she handled everything with patience and expertise that put us very much at ease. As a couple who initially thought we wouldn't need a planner we were so grateful that we did hire one and even more grateful that we found Stevie. Her experience and knowledge was essential during our planning process.

h professionalism and care, allowing my husband and I to relax and fully enjoy our day. Lauren’s organization, quick problem-solving, and calm demeanor were invaluable. Thanks to Lauren, my wedding was stress-free and perfect in every way. I highly recommend Lauren and her team to any bride looking for exceptional Day-of Coordinator❤️

end her to everyone!

seamless. Lauren’s attention to detail and ability to organize my wedding day timeline were impeccable. She reached out to vendors on my behalf, attend my walk through and rehearsal as well as meeting with me multiple times. She was always reachable and corresponded via text to make sure I felt ready to go during the week leading up to my wedding! Lauren went out of her way to make sure our day went off without a hitch. She handled all of the small things that you don’t want to have to worry about for your special day. She even went as far as helping my mom figuring out how to bustle my wedding dress (including watching a step by step video sent from the seamstress). Lauren far exceeded every expectation I had for my Day of Coordinator! You would be lucky to have such an incredible, detailed oriented planner and/or coordinator! 100% recommend booking with Best Wishes!

ded one! If there is any tip I can give to future brides that do not want/need a full time wedding planner: use a day of planner! There are many things to stress about on the big day and it helps to have someone that takes that away a bit. I worked with Stevie at Best Wishes and she was more like a friend than a planner. Very easy to work with and I’m thankful for her help!

ld just let go, and they would take care of everything. I was able to rely on the team to also give me recommendations, all of which were just as fabulous as Stevie and team. They handled well planned items, last minute changes, and "issues" the day of with grace and ease. 10/10 would recommend again and again.

being a confidence boost to handling all of the little details, they played such a key part in our big day! Thank you Best Wishes!!!

il with perfection and made the day run smoothly. I truly am so grateful to have found Best Wishes, I can’t recommend them enough!

it never felt pushy - just honestly helpful. You can put your full trust into this team and know your experience will be amazing.

great advice as we talked through the details, and she even had experience with our venues. On our rainy wedding day, Stevie saved the day as she helped pivot our outdoor decorations to our backup tented area so that it looked like it was planned to be in the tent all along! We’re so glad we had Stevie there to coordinate with vendors, move decor to our reception location, and ensure everything went smoothly!

artial planning service but she went above and beyond in every aspect! From communication with vendors to helping to plan my vision, by the time it was the wedding day Stevie knew the vision so intimately that she was able to execute everything perfectly without coming to me for anything. I didn’t even know changes had to be made during the day until I saw photos afterwards! I have been apart of a lot of weddings in different wedding parties and I can hands down Stevie has been the best day of coordinator! If you’re looking for any day of coordinator or planning services at an affordable price point, Stevie will go above and beyond and is definitely your girl!

erts on all things Bald Head Island in a matter of hours. They were so attentive and flexible and made the day seamless. Stevie and Katherine were amazing and we would highly recommend them to any couple!

othly the day off. I can’t recommend them enough!

detail-oriented and made sure all my dreams came true. On our big day, she was reassuring and worked so incredibly hard to ensure that it was exactly what we wanted plus she was just fun to be around! Stevie and her team are worth every penny!

detail and wanted to save money. I don’t know what I would have done without her and 1000% recommend her and her team! She truly is a bride’s best friend!! We went through every detail so that she understood my vision and then she carried it out flawlessly. I didn’t even realize anything went wrong until the next day when we debriefed! The communication for the entire time leading up to the wedding, and especially with everyone on the actual day, was amazing (which is not easy with our families). If you don’t think you need a day-of-coordinator, you definitely do and you definitely need Stevie at Best Wishes Loudon.

nstantly made me feel like I was in control of the situation and my wedding could still be as amazing as I have always dreamed it to be! Kathryn was our day of coordinator and she was perfection! I called her several times before the day and she made me feel like everything was going to be fine. On the day of the wedding she kept a tight ship, fixing any problems that presented themselves, keeping everything on schedule and eliminating any stress! I cannot recommend those ladies enough!
