Aside from my love for all-things-events-and-weddings, I am a cat mom, dog mom (to the best dog ever, truly), goofy type-A (yes, we exist). I love everything coffee, purple, and vintage; I almost never go somewhere without red lipstick. And you’ll probably see me somewhere in downtown Frederick at least twice a week. The SBD team has a team of Leads and Assistants of all backgrounds but we all share a love for logistics and supporting couples on their special day!

“Sarah was so helpful in our planning process the last few weeks leading up to our wedding and on our wedding day. She was super responsive and available to answer questions throughout the process and give recommendations. Her recommendation on wedding dress alterations saved me 600 compared to the first place I went to! There is a lot that happens in the last 4-6 weeks before the wedding; all of your vendors are reaching out about final details and decisions, which Sarah helped us handle. She took the initiative to email all of our vendors which took the stress off of us and allowed us to only work with her in the final weeks as she communicated everything out to the rest of our vendor team. I believe our wedding was the first time she and her team had been to our venue – Riverside on the Potomac in Leesburg, Virginia – but you never would have known it. In particular, she nailed our timeline, which was such a big help for us not to have to think about much. On the wedding day, she was on top of everything and from my husband's and my perspective, everything went to plan and there were no hiccups! She does everything through Google Docs and Sheets which makes things super easy for you to work on as you have time and it’s nice that it’s all done in one place, not back and forth through lots of emails!”

“Caroline Calleja with Protea Event Planners was truly the BEST decision we made for our wedding. We worked with Caroline for about nine months leading up to our December 20, 2025 wedding in Frederick, MD. She made the entire process SO much easier and more enjoyable. Our ceremony at St. John’s and reception at Citizens Ballroom were absolutely beautiful and Caroline brought our vision to life in every way. She is so incredibly sweet, knowledgeable, calm, organized, friendly, flexible, and professional, which made planning feel as stress-free as possible despite my husband and I’s demanding and busy work schedules. She helped us find fantastic vendors, kept everything running smoothly with a perfectly coordinated day-of timeline, and handled every detail behind the scenes. Caroline is also extremely creative and talented. She even personally made unique décor pieces for our theme and designed the signage we used throughout the reception as well as our invitations and save-the-dates. Our wedding was an intimate celebration with about 65 guests, and it was elegant, seamless, timeless and more perfect than we could have ever imagined. We are so grateful for everything she did and truly couldn’t have done it without her. We highly recommend Caroline to anyone looking for an exceptional wedding planner.”

She was the perfect partner and added so much support and ease to our day. Not only did she help with questions and ideas leading up to the event - especially because we were planning a wedding out of town on a shorter timeline. but she also took care of everything top to bottom on our wedding day and totally understood my vision for my dream day! She was responsive, creative, and so easy to work with. She never made me feel like I was too type A, or that my ideas were too much or not enough. She was so professional and quick to move around behind the scenes while we were preoccupied enjoying our wedding and handled all of the arrivals and departures of our vendors with detailed care. I can’t say enough good things about our experience, and I highly recommend Breanna for your special day!”

“Megan is the absolute best! We used her day of coordinating service and it was one of the best choices we made throughout the planning process. From the very beginning, she made us feel comfortable. She truly took the time to not only get to know what our wants and needs were for the wedding, but also who we were as a couple. She is insanely organized, detailed oriented, and definitely knows her stuff when it comes to the wedding industry. We had full confidence in Megan and her team to execute our vision for the day and they delivered.

“There are truly not enough words to describe what Darshan means to us and how much of our wedding’s beauty, joy, and peace came from him. When we think back on our wedding journey, one of the biggest blessings in it was finding Darshan and the ShubhMangal Events team. From our very first conversation, there was something so genuine and comforting about him. In the middle of all the chaos, emotions, decisions, and stress that come with planning a wedding, Darshan became the person who constantly reminded us that everything would be okay — and somehow, it always was. He didn’t just help plan our wedding; he carried our dreams with so much care, patience, and love as if they were his own. Every little detail mattered to him because he knew it mattered to us. There were so many moments where he went above and beyond in ways people will never fully see — the late-night calls, the constant reassurance, the problem-solving behind the scenes, the way he quietly handled everything so we could stay present and happy. We never once felt like “clients.” We felt genuinely cared for. And on the wedding day… it honestly felt magical. Not because everything was extravagant or perfect in the traditional sense, but because everything felt full of heart. We were able to look around, hold each other’s hands, laugh with our families, cry happy tears, and actually live in every moment without worrying about a single thing. That gift is something we will carry with us forever, and it was only possible because Darshan poured so much of himself into making our day special. What makes Darshan unforgettable is not just his talent or professionalism — though he has both in abundance — it’s the kind of person he is. He has the rare ability to make people feel safe, celebrated, understood, and important during one of the most emotional times of their lives. You can feel how deeply he cares in everything he does. Years from now, when we look back at our wedding, we will remember the love, the happiness, and the feeling of being surrounded by people who truly wanted the best for us. Darshan will always be part of that memory. Thank you, Darshan, for giving us more than a beautiful wedding. Thank you for giving us peace, joy, and moments we will treasure for the rest of our lives. We will never forget everything you did for us. — Rupin & Malavika”

“I cannot sing Emma’s praises enough!!! We hired Emma as a month-of coordinator and are fully convinced she is the sole reason our wedding went off without a hitch! We had over 200 people and our ceremony was at a different location from our reception—no small undertaking—and from the moment we started working together, we knew our wedding was in good hands. Emma is extremely organized and has the perfect demeanor for this type of work. When I was actively pulling my hair out with stress (and a venue that was less than forthcoming about a conflict with our event space), Emma stepped up and made sure everything went smoothly, all while remaining calm, cool and collected. Emma was SO easy to work with and is a pleasure to be around. She also has a great inventory of items to bolster your décor—we ended up renting a card box and table numbers from her that she printed and designed with our names on it! She helped us hone our vision and refine our timeline, all while making sure everything was finalized to our liking! She put out every fire that popped up and truly felt like our wedding day guardian angel. Do yourself a favor and book Simply Grater Events!!!”

“Hiring Kat and her team was easily the best decision I made while wedding planning holy cow! I work at a wedding venue so I kept telling myself I got this I got this and right about 3 months out I was like nope I don’t got this I need to accept the fact I need help. With having relationships with a lot of coordinators it was hard to pick one so I initially went with Evivva since it was too hard to pick a “friendor” and I had not worked with them much but heard nothing but amazing things from brides I talked to. I immediately reached out to Kat and she hopped on the phone with us and got to know us and instantly we clicked and it felt like talking to a friend! Kat was our day of the Sydney helped as the event coordinator and Nikki was our event concierge! Kat held on to our marriage certificate all night, Sydney always had a water bottle on hand for my husband and I and Nikki was busy running around setting everything up for us. We had their A team for sure we felt so laid back lol I was so relaxed people kept asking if I was okay since I was just lounging around and I was like “oh yes I have the best team of people helping I’m just so at peace right now” and it felt so nice to feel 0 stress the day of the wedding after stressing for the months leading up! We loved how the Evivva team made a timeline for family, made us a packing list, and gave all important info in a beautiful shareable PDF link. It made it so easy to access and share with loved ones!! If you are second guessing hiring a day of coordinator, please please do and hire Evivva while you’re at it!!

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.”

I am a wedding planner certified by the Wedding Planning Institute at George Mason University. I am based in Springfield, VA, and work throughout the DC, MD, and Loudoun County, VA. As a fun-loving, adventure-craving 20-something, I am also your girl for destination weddings at any spot on the globe! I discovered my passion for wedding planning while designing my own. I would get comments about how "on top of things" or "how organized," and I soon began receiving requests from other engaged couples. I quickly discovered the joy of creating that special day that people have been dreaming of their entire lives and, soon after, launched SWP.

“We chose Macy from a list of preferred vendors and when I tell you I am SO glad I chose her.. I really am. She made the process so easy and smooth and the very detailed checklist up until that special day was very key. I loved working with Macy and she made dreams a reality at our wedding 2 days ago! I have 0 negative words and would choose her a million times over!”

My name is Katie and I’m the owner of Lotus Events! I am a mother, hopeless romantic, and love all things outdoors. I specialize in rustic weddings, DIY brides, and theme-based weddings. I started planning fundraising events at a young age which led me to start non profits and serve as fundraising/event chairman for many organizations. After years of planning fundraisers and friends weddings, it was time to launch my business. I truly love what I do and hope you become part of my Lotus Family!

“Katie and her team were amazing to work with! We had rented out a large vacation house as our venue, so we had to bring in everything ourselves as far as setting up tables/chairs, linens, decor, etc. Not only did Katie deliver on this and make sure everything I imagined in my head came to life, but her calming presence always made me feel like no matter what, everything was going to be ok and get done. She truly made sure we had the wedding of our dreams! I cannot say enough great things about Katie and her team. You will not be disappointed if you work with Lotus Events for your wedding!”

“From our first conversation with Lissa Marie Weddings and Events, we knew we had found the right planner for us. Erin was responsive and genuinely interested in understanding what our wedding day meant to us, making us feel heard throughout the entire process. She created an amazing timeline that kept everything running smoothly, and her eye for detail showed in every aspect of the planning. Erin's thoughtful approach made what could have been stressful into something we actually enjoyed. She went above and beyond to make sure our day felt personal and special. We can't recommend Erin and Lissa Marie Weddings and Events enough.”
