“We used Katie for our day of wedding coordination and for our seating chart. Katie was great to work with in the card design process, and took and feedback and ideas I had and came up with a design we loved! She asked what things were important to us and curated a wedding day timeline that made sure the day included all of the elements that were most important to us. She was also great at communicating with our vendors and making sure everyone was on the same page.”

​Planning a wedding is hard! There are so many details that go into planning a successful event...especially a wedding. Not only do you need the big things covered (venue, food, music) but the smallest of details can make your day amazing...or stressful (did you remember to pack your comfy shoes?). You're inviting all of your family and friends to share this day with you for a reason. You not only want your day to be an amazing experience for you as a couple, but for your guests too. Let us help you do that. I've assembled a team of wedding ninjas, and we're looking forward to helping make your day the best it can be.

“I recently had the pleasure of working with Kellie, who truly went above and beyond to make our special day unforgettable. From the moment we met her, it was clear that she was a master of her work and had a genuine passion for creating memorable experiences and we HAD to work with her. During the planning stages, Kellie's attentiveness and helpfulness were outstanding. She regularly checked in with us to ensure that all the details were in place and that our vision for the wedding was being brought to life. Kellie provided us with an abundance of planning resources, from vendor recommendations to an incredible Excel doc with every planning resource you could need (we’re talking budget sheets, guest list tracker, packing lists, day-of timelines, etc), which made the entire process much smoother and less stressful. For every question or concern I had, Kellie had an answer. On the day of the wedding, I am speechless for how smoothly Kellie ran the show. From start to finish, her ability to juggle multiple tasks (and people) while remaining calm and composed was truly remarkable. We were able to relax and enjoy our day knowing that Kellie had everything under control. What struck us the most about Kellie was her kind and caring nature. She genuinely cared about us as a couple and went absolutely above and beyond to make sure our needs were met. She took the time to understand our vision and priorities, and her dedication to making our dreams come true was evident in every aspect of the wedding. Her attention to detail, organization, and professionalism were second to none. She worked tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure that every element of the wedding was executed flawlessly. We cannot express enough gratitude to Kellie for her invaluable contributions to our special day. Without her expertise and dedication, our wedding would not have been the incredible event that it was. Kellie is truly one of a kind, and her passion for creating unforgettable experiences shines through in everything she does. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in need of a wedding coordinator who will go above and beyond to make their dreams come true!”

·Ratings include Zola and Google reviews
  • Offers 7 services
  • Starts at $500
  • Serves Franklin, VA

House of Elleon is a luxury white-glove wedding and event planning & design studio founded by Noelle Cappuzzo, specializing in refined, editorial celebrations with an emotional core. Each event is a carefully curated experience where the client’s vision is executed with precision, elevated through thoughtful design, and brought to life with seamless flow. With a focus on enhancing the overall experience—not just the aesthetic—Noelle blends creative direction with logistical mastery so every moment feels effortless, intentional, and distinctly personal. Events are expertly produced, emotionally resonant, and elevated from start to finish.

“I genuinely do not even know where to begin when it comes to Noelle because there are not enough words to explain how incredible she is. From the VERY beginning of my wedding planning process over a year ago, she handled absolutely everything and more. Any thought, question, idea, concern, crash out, or micromanaging moment I had (and trust me… there were MANY), I could text or call her at literally any time, and she was always there. Not once did she ever make me feel annoying, dramatic, or “too much.” Instead, she made me feel heard, understood, supported, and excited every single step of the way. What makes Noelle so special is that she doesn’t just “plan weddings.” She genuinely takes your vision and transforms it into something bigger and more beautiful than you could have even imagined for yourself. The ideas I had in my head for my wedding somehow came to life TIMES TEN. Every tiny detail was perfected. She thought of things before I even had to ask. She guided me through every decision while still making me feel like the wedding truly reflected me and my husband. And the professionalism? Insane. The organization? Insane. The patience? Saint level. She worked with my budget and constantly gave me options to still achieve the luxury, elegant look I wanted without making me feel pressured to spend beyond my means. She found almost all of my vendors, and every single one of them was phenomenal. The amount of compliments I still receive from guests weeks and months later about how beautiful, organized, and seamless my wedding was honestly speaks for itself. But what REALLY blew me away was wedding day itself. When I tell you I did not have a single worry in the world, I mean it. Noelle and her team handled EVERYTHING. She was genuinely a rockstar from beginning to end. At one point she literally did my late night McDonald’s run herself while her assistants stayed behind making sure me, my bridal party, and my family had everything we needed. Who does that?! That level of care is so rare. She treated my wedding like it was just as important to her as it was to me. Not only did she become my wedding planner, but over this past year she truly became someone so special to me and my family. My family and friends could not stop complimenting her professionalism, kindness, work ethic, and calming presence. I literally had my mom’s friends texting me asking for her information because they were so blown away by her. Noelle made wedding planning FUN. She made it exciting instead of stressful. Honestly, she makes me want to plan another wedding tomorrow just to work with her again. I’m truly going to miss our hours-long meetings spent perfecting every little detail because it all paid off in the most unbelievable way. I can confidently say my wedding would NOT have been what it was without her. She gave me the wedding of my dreams and more, and I will forever be grateful that I trusted her to guide me through one of the biggest moments of my life. I truly believe one day I’ll see her planning celebrity weddings because her talent is genuinely on that level. Thank you for everything, Noelle. I would choose you over and over and over again.”

“Lotus Events, LLC was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, their communication was prompt, professional, and thoughtful, which put us at ease throughout the entire planning process.

Katie is not just a wedding planner; she is an incredible human who brings warmth and love with her into every event.

“Working with Bre was easily one of the best vendor choices we made while wedding planning. Our wedding ceremony became a kind of “pop-up” style event and Bre rolled with every decision and last minute detail we threw at her. With her day-of coordination package, we were able to have 2 pre wedding meetings and a rehearsal the day before. I went into the rehearsal feeling nervous about how things would go and left feeling so reassured and excited! The day of the wedding Bre checked in with me and made sure things were running smoothly. I felt so calm and confident walking up to the venue knowing Bre was in charge and bringing our vision to life! The whole day went beautifully and I know it’s because Bre was working her magic behind the scenes. She stayed until the last moment of clean up and made sure all our personal items and gifts made it home with us. Beyond just receiving a great service, it was so special to work with someone who truly celebrated with us and took care of us like we were old friends. I would 100% recommend working with Magical Moments and wish we could get married again to continue working with them!”

“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!”

I had an initial call with Chad and based on that I knew they were professionals who could bring my vision to life through floral design and day of coordination. Then they continued to provide clear and open communication throughout the planning process and were able to make suggestions as needed to advance my vision.

Morgan ended up saving the day when our bartender cancelled on us last minute; she stepped in and bartended on top of coordinating. Then she was able to work with me to donate our flowers to a women’s shelter; a cause that hits close to home for me. I cannot recommend Avenue Design Studio enough!!”

“Champagne Wishes helped us plan and execute our 75-person wedding in June 2025 in just four months – we’re not sure how we would have done it without them! Starting from our consultation, Katelyn was extremely personable and encouraging. We were of course nervous about our tight timeline, but she quickly made us feel at ease. She honored our vision, asked the right questions, and helped us be decisive during the planning process when we needed it. Sulli took over as our day-of-coordinator and did an amazing job memorizing our timeline and all the small details of the day. She managed parking attendants from CW and tricky traffic down our venue’s one-lane road with ease, ensuring our guests had a seamless experience. Both Katelyn and Sulli were great communicators, answering our many questions in a timely manner and handling all communication with the vendor team as we approached the big day. The best testimony of how well they worked together was that after the wedding we had multiple guests and even fellow vendors remark on how smooth and effortless the day felt. We are so grateful to the entire team and we highly recommend Champagne Wishes for all your wedding planning needs! As a side note, we also worked with CW for some day-of rentals such as gorgeous wooden benches for our ceremony, cocktail tables, and LED candles. They have a large, well-priced inventory and it was super convenient to get everything in one place. Definitely recommend taking a look!”

“Working with Destiny at Barking Hound Productions made planning our wedding feel manageable instead of overwhelming. She was of day of coordinator but helped with multiple conversations and three venue visits prior to the wedding day. She was available whenever we had questions and always gave us guidance and suggestions that actually helped us make decisions. From the first phone call to our wedding day, her communication was clear and consistent, which gave us real peace of mind. The coordination she brought to our event was seamless—everything flowed perfectly and looked beautiful without feeling overdone. I trusted her to make design decisions on the day of and everything came together perfectly. We would recommend Barking Hound Productions to any couple looking for planners who truly care about making their day special.”

“Jenna is basically a wizard in the wedding planner world. She helped plan our wedding that was one day after another on the same weekend, and was still able to absolutely crush it! During a time where there's typically a lot of stress, Jenna is able to put you at ease with her ability to remain calm under pressure, organized when there are a million things to keep track of, and most importantly, kind to everyone she works with. I don't think she has a mean bone in her body, and having someone like that who also values your event as much as you do meant the world to us. My friends and family all raved about how amazing the wedding turned out, but we truly could not have done it without Jenna! Thanks for keeping our heads attached to our bodies the past year and giving us the event of a lifetime. xoxo - Alex & Josh”

“I honestly don’t even know where to begin! After being scammed by another planner, I was desperate to find someone trustworthy, reliable, and truly passionate about making my wedding special. And then I found Lauren. From the moment we started working together, she went above and beyond in ways I never imagined. Not only did she handle every detail with such professionalism and care, but she also took on so much more than I ever asked of her. As a DIY bride, I was feeling overwhelmed, but Lauren stepped in and completely transformed the space with her incredible decorating skills. She turned my vision into reality, and it was absolutely stunning. Every little detail was handled seamlessly, and I didn’t have to worry about a thing. Her attention to detail, organization, and creativity truly exceeded my expectations, and I am so grateful for everything she did to make my day perfect.

“I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Erin. I planned my wedding over a 2 year period and Erin was there every step of the way helping with vendor selection, timelines, site visits, and any question I could possibly have. She was very timely with her responses, extremely organized, and was always down to jump on a zoom call with me. My wedding would not have been what it was without Erin's help, I feel very lucky to have had her as a day of coordinator!”

Golden Hour Weddings & Events is a full-service wedding and event planning and design studio in Elkin, North Carolina, and available to travel nationwide. Whether it's a 300-guest celebration or an intimate backyard ceremony, we handle every detail so you can actually present on your day.

“Choosing Golden Hour Weddings & Events as our planner was hands down the best decision we made for our wedding. From day one, our planner took our scattered ideas and transformed them into something beautiful, all while keeping us calm and organized through the whole process. The biggest lifesaver was how she handled our reception room flip, we had a super tight window to transform our ceremony space into the dining room, and she coordinated the vendors like clockwork. She's so much more than just a planner; she's a rock under pressure and knows how to navigate every moving part of a wedding day without stressing you out. Her quick communication, helpful attitude, and availability made all the difference when obstacles came up. We honestly can't thank her enough for making our day so special.”

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!

“From our first meeting with Our Curated Design, we knew we had found the right team to bring our vision to life. Their communication throughout the planning process was clear and responsive, making us feel heard at every step. What truly set them apart was their dedication to detail—they coordinated every aspect of our day with precision and went above and beyond with the decorating, transforming our venue into something we didn't even know was possible. The quality of their work was exceptional, and they delivered exactly what we needed without breaking the bank. Our guests couldn't stop talking about how beautiful everything looked, and we have Our Curated Design to thank for that. We would absolutely recommend them to any couple looking for a planner who actually cares about making their day special.”
