J.J.Ash Events and Designs

  • Offers 6 services
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Charlottesville, VA

Introducing J.J.Ash Events And Designs, your premier partner in crafting unforgettable wedding experiences throughout D.C., Maryland, and Virginia. Led by the seasoned master planner, Ashanti Neal, our team is dedicated to translating your individual style into a celebration that reflects your essence. At J.J.Ash Events And Designs, we thrive on building genuine connections with our clients, taking the time to understand your vision and aspirations intimately. Ashanti and her team are passionate about guiding couples through every step of the planning journey, infusing each detail with creativity and precision.

Working with J.J. Ash Events and Designs for a Jacksonville wedding was an absolute dream. I was the cake artist, and Ashanti handled the florals. When the bride shared her vision, I immediately thought of Ashanti because I’ve worked with her before and absolutely love her work. She’s one of the rare designers who can balance creativity with realism while delivering flawless execution. For this wedding, we had to transform an inspiration photo into a glam-style red wedding design, and Ashanti absolutely delivered. The bride wanted florals showcased inside acrylic tiers for the cake—a unique and challenging concept. These acrylic tiers had to be sourced from London, measured precisely, customized with Ashanti’s florals, and transported from Virginia to Florida and survive 3-4 days. Not only did the floral design make the journey, but it also held up beautifully throughout the wedding. The result? Stunning florals that tied the cake seamlessly into the overall wedding design. The bride was overjoyed, the guests were amazed, and I was blown away. Together, we created a once-in-a-lifetime piece for a deserving couple and seeing the bride’s ecstatic reaction made all the effort worth it. Ashanti’s talent speaks for itself, but what truly sets her apart is her professionalism. She’s communicative, detail-oriented, and incredibly down-to-earth. She knew exactly how to bring the vision to life and worked closely with me to ensure every detail was perfect. Honestly, I couldn’t have pulled this off without her expertise. Good on J.J. Ash for requesting reviews from vendors and guests—it’s a smart move that highlights the joy they create for couples. I’ve seen Ashanti and her team work tirelessly through weddings, sometimes staying until the very end (I’m usually there past the cake cutting, haha!). By the time the dust settles, the couple is married, their photos are stunning, and their videos capture every magical moment. Reflecting on those moments reminds me how much of a privilege it is to be part of such special events. As a vendor, I appreciated how communicative and organized Ashanti was throughout the process. She asked all the right questions, provided clear instructions, and made herself available if I needed clarification. Unfortunately, not everyone in this industry is that dependable. I’ve seen vendors drop the ball, fail to respond, or avoid accountability—but not J.J. Ash. Ashanti and her team were on top of every detail and worked to have all vendors comply and work together seamlessly. Their dedication and professionalism made this collaboration a joy, and the end result was nothing short of magical. Their results don’t lie—J.J. Ash Events and Designs truly delivers excellence. Hats off to Ashanti and her team for creating unforgettable moments for their clients. I can’t wait to work with them again! — @ButtercreamPlease • Modern wedding and celebration cakes

We had inclement weather on our wedding day and they were on top of any changes that had to be made and communicated with everyone at our venue. Their communication was clear and professional. I really felt like they took a load off our shoulders on the day of the wedding, which allowed us to stay in the moment and enjoy the day. Thank you so much to Emory and Sarah at Willow Creek Event Planning for helping make our wedding day extremely memorable and amazing!

My bridesmaids say that it is the best hair and makeup they have ever received (some better than their own wedding). April with florals were out of the world amazing. And Taylor hands down took care of EVERYTHING. There were soooo many things that went wrong the week of (people cancelling, people showing up randomly, etc.) and she took care of EVERYTHING with such grace.

IN 2016 2 friends of mine trusted me with their wedding. This experience fueled my growth, and I continued to coordinate and plan weddings under Weddings by Devin in the Richmond area through 2019. In 2020 I paused my wedding and event career, moving out of state for a new career opportunity. 4 YEARS LATER I moved back to Virginia, left my job of 8+ years in the corp world & ran towards my true passion of event and wedding planning. I’m the definition of Type A, organized & detail oriented. I thrive on helping clients navigate the often-overwhelming process of event planning to ensure their vision comes to life in a warm and intentional way.

Devin was a huge help 7 years ago when my husband and I got married. We opted to have a very simple wedding and handle things like the dj on our own. She was supportive and provided the confidence we needed to make a plan. On the day I was so glad to have her to coordinate the moving pieces so I could savor the time with my friends and family.

I entered the Event planning market seven years ago through catering and setting up for events. I quickly learned that I loved being by the bride and groom throughout the entire event and watching their special day come to life. Getting to know the couple through the entire process and watching their dreams evolve into the wedding of their dreams stole my heart. It’s my pursuit to take all the stress off your plate and help you build the event of a lifetime. I truly want to become your best friend, go to person, planner, and even a punching bag when things just might not be going well that day, throughout the entire process

I want to give a HUGE shoutout to my wedding coordinator Chloe! She made everything so easy for me, stress free, and created the day of my dreams. From bringing me & my bridal party drinks during photos, to setting up ALL of my decor, bringing my purse (and a groomsmen she found asleep at the venue) to the hotel & she even cleaned the ENTIRE venue for me so my hungover Sunday self didn’t have to.If youre getting married soon I 1000% recommend reaching out to her. One of the sweetest, most genuine, hard working people I have ever met.

I went with Prestige Planning for my wedding planner because of the ease of use. I met with my certified wedding planner before I booked and she was amazing and explained the whole process. I knew I could plan my own wedding but I’m not a pro at all so I knew I would need a lot of help. I didn’t want to spend the money on a full wedding planner so going this route was absolutely perfect. They were with me every step of the way. I especially liked the SOS calls they give because I needed them to assist with a vendor I was having an issue with. I knew I was going to need help with logistics and stuff on the actual day of my wedding because I wouldn’t have time to do so, so I added the coordination add on to my package. So I got my wedding planned with major help from an actual certified planner and coordination for my wedding day for less than others are charging for just coordination. Just go for it. You will not be disappointed at all! They really went above and beyond and did more for me than what they had outlined they would do. I got more than my money worth.

Words cannot define the worth and joy it was to have Kawania and her team be a part of my wedding day. She was a constant advocate for our needs and budget throughout the process, being realistic at every turn. What I know now is that what you get with Kawania is experience and know-how of the industry. She has planned several weddings and events before and knows how to troubleshoot mishaps that may happen on the wedding day in real time. She understands that the day of the event is a special moment for everyone involved and she knows not to bring stress to the wedding party and to allow them to live in the moment. At subsequent weddings, I have felt that my friends needed this approach with their planners on their wedding day/weekend. I, being their guest or in their bridal party felt the disorganization that their planners or self-planning brought. This was not the case with Kawania. We had glowing comments about our wedding day for even a year after and how it was not just a ceremony but a day of entertainment. She is an excellent communicator. We had regular meetings throughout the year, about once a week. I have seen my friends have wedding planners who do not get back to them for several days after they have a question about their wedding. Kawania brought my vendors to me instead of me having to look for vendors on my own and when one did not work she always had another one that could take the place. She set up meetings with me and my vendors one-on-one and reviewed all of our vendor contracts to make sure that we were getting a fair contract and that expectations for the vendor and for us were both reasonable and what we were looking for. Being a very busy working professional I appreciated that Kawania went above and beyond to make sure that I stayed on the schedule and was extremely patient when there were moments when I could not. I value how she brought my vision to life and had such great attention to small details that my day was exceptional. I have seen my guests feature elements of my wedding at their subsequent events and it speaks to how she was able to set the bar high for what a classy and unique event should be. Far beyond a wedding planner, she has become someone that I keep in contact with after the wedding. She even checked in on me when there was a major catastrophic event that took place in the area where I lived months after the wedding. There were even moments when I became uncertain or stressed and focused on the wrong thing when it came to my wedding. Kawania, quite like a mother figure helped me realize what my focus should be and to ignore all other distractions so that when I walked down the aisle, I was in full confidence of how the day was going to be and did not feel a single ounce of stress on my wedding day. I could not be more thrilled to work with Kawania again. Although I do not see myself getting remarried I would certainly work with her for any big event I needed in the future. She has such a positive energy and global about her and brings a light to every interaction even difficult ones that makes her pleasant, respectable, dependable, and all around the absolute reason why my big day went off such success. I cannot state how tirelessly she and her team worked so when I did meet them in person but felt like I was meeting friends who knew exactly what I wanted. You will not regret working with Kawania and Howerton Wooten events!

Can I let you in on a secret? The journey to the aisle isn't about figuring out logistics or picking out designs. I know that's the opposite of what you'd think a wedding planner would say, but it's true! This time should be focused on experiencing new adventures, learning new communications skills, and celebrating your two families coming together. Your engagement should be focused on loving one another in ways that allow you to feel both heard and loved because at the end of this journey is the start of another. Stress, Frustration, and Confusion? They don't belong here.

Tilly & Teal is amazing! I had the opportunity to work with Katie this month as a photographer, and she is incredible - down to earth, friendly, super talented, and puts the couple #1 every time. Over two incredible days, Katie managed every detail with grace and professionalism. She was incredibly organized and on top of every detail. I witnessed her regularly going above and beyond - from ensuring our bride and groom were calm throughout the day, to assisting with organizing details for flatlay photos, to so many hidden labors of love to make sure everything was as the couple envisioned and the experience was seamless for the couple & guests. I would not hesitate for a moment to work with Katie again. She is a true gem in the industry, and her talent and passion shine through in everything she does. Don’t miss the opportunity to have her leading your team!

Whether you're looking for a 'Day Of' coordinator or full planner, Events By Macy is here to help. From light and open to warm and intimate, we’ll create the perfect atmosphere for your special day or night. It's your moment - enjoy it!

Having Macy as the day of coordinator for our wedding was the best decision we made - our wedding day was 100% stress free! We had no idea about what needed to be considered when having a wedding, but Macy had all the questions ready and helped us think through every detail. Macy is so kind, thoughtful, organized, communicative, and took away all of our stress leading up to the wedding day by being so organized and prepared! She coordinated with the different vendors to ensure a timeline was created and distributed for when each would arrive. I didn’t have to worry about a thing except for confirming details for her. She made sure the wedding party and our parents were at the right spots at the right time throughout the evening and helped keep guests contained during cocktail hour so we could step away with the photographer for photos. She even assisted with clean up and helped pack dessert for us to take and enjoy later! Macy is by far irreplaceable in our eyes, we cannot recommend her enough! She will do everything it takes to make sure you have the best day and she was instrumental for ours. Thank you so much, Macy!!

Allie’s the person who comes to mind when people ask, “how was the wedding?” From lighting to song choices to the flower girl’s petals to the bridal suite (and so, so much more), Allie was on top of it all. Her passion for her work coupled with her top-notch ability to navigate the bride and groom, their families, and venue/vendor staff blew my expectations for a day-of coordinator out of the water. She made sure the day ran smoothly and kept everyone on schedule, while working behind the scenes to ensure things (and people!) were where they needed to be and when. Her ability to remove stressful decisions without forgetting the little details let everyone focus on having a great time. We could not have done it without her.

Over six years ago, I began working at a charming wedding venue and with brilliant wedding planners which gave me the opportunity to assist hundreds of beautiful couples on their most special day. After spending years of working in marketing and corporate event production, I always found myself drawn back to weddings; the creativity of individualized design, gathering of loved ones, & unforgettable celebrations. All things I yearn to assist my couples with on their wedding day! And one thing to know about me is I will cry…at every. single. wedding.

MacKenzie is extremely attentive and quick to respond to any questions or requests. Her communication is very articulate and inspired, which leads to recommendations of unique components to add to our day that match our couple style while still being elegant. She is extremely efficient and focused to make even the most minuscule detail perfect. You have a dream or idea, she runs with it and tries to make it possible. You’re not just “a bride” she is working with, but rather “THE” bride. MacKenzie puts 110% into every wedding and makes a fairytale reality. I’m so excited for my wedding day, and she made the process as stress free as possible. I’m one of the lucky few brides who get to enjoy their engagement and planning!

Hey there, I’m Jami Pollnow Heath. I’m a wedding planner living and working in Richmond, Virginia. I'm a Maryland native living Richmond Virginia with my husband in our first home; a big beautiful project in Fulton Hill. In my journey down the aisle I found more than just my future partner, I found what I was meant to do; helping people like you say "I do" too!

We hired Jami for Day of Coordination and received her support over several months, beginning with an hour-long meeting 3 months out! Our wedding was the most incredible day of our lives in big thanks due to Jami’s thoughtful attention to detail, hard work, past wedding experience, and pure kindness! I get emotional thinking about the day and our wonderful experience with Jami! She was truly above and beyond! “Our Curated Design” is the perfect name for her business because she’ll work with you to envision the day you want, going with you through all of your mood boards and ideas so she truly “gets it”! She’ll put what you want into words and writing and then the best part – BRING IT TO LIFE! We wanted whimsical, modern, Wes Anderson vibes, and we more than got them! It was amazing! Going into planning a wedding, I had no idea what a Herculean effort it is to execute one. Even for 80 people, it really is 1,000 details. Jami will make sure to think of every single one. She’ll answer every question you ask and remember the answer when you’ve forgotten it on the big day. She’ll be your biggest cheerleader before, during, and after your wedding. It’s also the little things that Jami thinks of! She had the creative idea to take instax film images throughout our wedding that we’ll now get to cherish forever! We already are! It means so much to us to know that Jami and Will, her husband, had our back throughout our day. We honestly can’t believe how well the day went, but it wasn’t luck or just our planning, it was mostly due to Our Curated Design magic! At the end of the night when we were exhausted (we’d left it all on the dance floor) and we couldn’t help to pack up our decor and things like we wanted to, Jami and Will took care of it with smiles! They were such a calming presence to share the end of our night with. Not to mention, everything got back to our home expertly packed! I would recommend Our Curated Design over and over!

Sonder means the realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own. Each experience is valid. Every guest's experience should be considered. Vendors should be cared for. And you should be fully present on your day.

Hiring Helen and the Sonder team to be our wedding coordinators was THE BEST decision in our planning process! Not only was Helen fantastic on my wedding day, but she went above and beyond the few months leading up! When you hire Helen, you also get access to an amazing wedding planning software that will help you stay organized and sane! A could weeks before my wedding, I had major regret about not booking a videographer, and a having a cake, and Helen went out of her way to find me those two vendors extremely last minute – she even picked up my cake and drove it to my wedding! Helen is warm, fun, passionate, wonderful with parents, and will make your wedding day everything you ever dreamed of!
