The Best Wedding Planners in Laurel, MD

“We took on a lot of planning ourselves, and hired Rina to be our day of coordinator--or really month of coordinator--and out of all of our planning decisions, hiring Rina was one of the best decisions we made. Ahead of our first call, we sent a long document outlining the ideas we had--which she looked through and gave us useful feedback on as we considered what support we needed most. We had some unique ideas for how to do things our own way--and it was also clear from our conversation, that while Rina knows how to do a "textbook" wedding--she also knows how to listen to clients to help them make their unique vision a reality, even if that requires some creative thinking, crafting, or problem solving. When we did our venue walkthrough a month before the event, we sent Rina another long document, floorplan, and schedule the day before--and she once again arrived familiar with all of it. She had crucial suggestions, important questions we hadn't thought of, and proved again she was the right person to help us get prepared for the big day. That pattern repeated once more at rehearsal which was very efficient! The day of our wedding, Rina was punctual, professional, and in expert control running the show we had put together. She had already connected with all of our vendors, reviewed all the decorations we designed and how they set up, and was fully familiar with the timeline. When the inevitable surprises popped up, she was quick to roll with the punches--in a way that kept our plans on track! The entire event was not just beautiful, unique, and exactly the vibe we had envisioned--but it was also EXACTLY ON SCHEDULE, from set up to the paper lantern send off at the end! We are thoroughly impressed, and can't recommend Rina highly enough! She was our not so secret weapon. Let her be yours too! And make no mistake, while we had Rina as our month-of-coordinator--we would have absolutely hired Rina to take on the entire thing if we hadn't enjoyed planning so much (and even then, we couldn't have finished the plans without her input!). I will also say, having planned so much ourselves, it really made it very personal to us that the schedule we made, the decorations we crafted, and the timeline we envisioned were faithfully executed. It was so personal, that I thought it would be hard to hand off our cherished plan to someone else. Who could know it as well as us or care as much? But every conversation with Rina made letting go easy, because it was so clear she was listening to us, and understanding us. There is no one else we would've trusted with our plan except Rina.”

Echo Event & Design

Rating: 5.0 (13 reviews)

“My now-husband and I had the privilege of working with Mary Liniger, owner of Echo Event & Design, to plan our wedding. After we became engaged, we found ourselves going through an incredibly difficult time with family health issues and other circumstances in our lives. We quickly realized that we simply were not in a place to take on everything that came with planning a wedding, even a very small one. Mary stepped in and guided us through absolutely everything. From the beginning, she was incredibly empathetic, thoughtful, patient, and helpful. She gave us the space we needed to handle what was happening in our lives while taking the time to truly understand us and our vision for the wedding. Her compassion and willingness to have calls whenever we needed them made such a difference. She got to know us in the ways that mattered, which allowed her to ask the right questions and, at times, make decisions for us when we simply did not have the capacity to make them ourselves. And somehow, she always made the right ones. Mary was also incredibly respectful of our budget. She stayed within it throughout the entire planning process, and whenever we had concerns about cost, she found alternatives that were just as wonderful, if not better. She kept us informed about every detail, what needed to be purchased, and when it needed to be done. She even allowed us to have items delivered to her home so that she could bring them to the venue herself. On our wedding day, Mary was there to decorate, welcome guests as they arrived, coordinate everything behind the scenes, and make sure every single detail was exactly as it should be. Because of her, we were able to simply be present and enjoy our wedding. We truly could not have asked for anyone better. In all honesty, saying goodbye to Mary after the wedding was much harder than I expected. I realized that this person who had been such a kind, steady, and supportive presence during such an important and emotional time in our lives was someone I probably would not get to see regularly anymore. That alone says so much about who Mary is, not only as a wedding planner, but as a person. Anyone who has the opportunity to work with Mary is incredibly lucky. We will always be grateful that she was the person who helped us through this experience and made our wedding everything we hoped it would be.”

The Coordinated Collective

Rating: 5.0 (72 reviews)

“Hiring The Coordinated Collective was by far the best decision we made throughout our entire wedding planning process. Every single person we interacted with was incredible, starting with Ja’el the owner, who was amazing from start to finish. She is warm, organized, thoughtful, and we felt see was genuinely invested in us. From our first conversation, we knew we were in great hands. Our day-of coordinators, Liz and Blair, were absolute stars. They just got us. Throughout the planning process, they provided steady guidance, answered every question, and—when we had concerns about potential issues with other vendors—gave us thoughtful, grounded advice and real encouragement. As we approached the wedding, Liz and Blair stepped in to manage the scheduling of the countless moving parts of our wedding day. They helped address issues before they became problems, and resolved most problems before they became crises. Their communication and stress management were unparalleled. They kept us informed whenever we needed to know something and shielded us from anything we didn’t need to be bothered with. I referred back to Blair’s meticulously documented recap emails from our planning meetings so many times during planning - no idea how anything would have gotten done without those! We always felt like they were firmly on our team. Their presence throughout those final weeks kept us calm and confident… despite the best attempts of some of our vendors and family! And then the wedding day itself… flawless. Truly flawless. They executed the day with precision, grace, and warmth. They handled countless details behind the scenes so seamlessly that we were able to be fully present and enjoy every moment of our big day. At one point during dinner, I (the bride) leaned over to my mom to ask if she had floss because I had food stuck in my teeth, and before I could finish my sentence, Liz promptly whisked me away to a back room where I found myself suddenly in front of a mirror with a toothpick in hand! The level of support and preparation during the pre-wedding stages was above and beyond what we ever expected. Our families and friends are still raving about how fantastic they were on the day-of. We also decided to add on content creation with Teri late in the process, and we are SO glad we did. She was amazing—funny, kind, unobtrusive, and everywhere at once without ever feeling like a camera was in our faces. A couple of days after the wedding, we received our raw video dump, and it is worth every single penny. I’ve spent hours reliving the day through all the behind-the-scenes moments she captured with our guests, family, and wedding party. She didn’t miss a thing. We can’t wait to see the short-form content she creates, but honestly, the raw footage alone already exceeded our hopes. We are genuinely obsessed with this team. The Coordinated Collective is thoughtful, professional, communicative, creative, and deeply committed to making your wedding experience exceptional from beginning to end. If you’re considering hiring them, don’t hesitate for a second. They were truly the best decision we made, and we are endlessly grateful.”

“Lissa and her team was absolutely wonderful from the initial contact up to the end of our wedding day! No matter what kind of wedding you're having, she will make you and your partner feel like you have all of her attention as the most important couple. Throughout the whole process, she was so professional and supportive, even with not as traditional ideas. She had such a quick response time, usually within a day, or a couple hours, and sometimes even sooner! Her attention to detail in making my timeline was also amazing and I felt that we were able to have the whole day planned to the dot before the big day. On the wedding day, she made sure everything ran so smoothly and we were not stressed out at all! We had some small hiccups with the layouts that our venue had set up, but a quick word from Lissa had them fixing the issue. She's the perfect amount of assertiveness, professionalism, and friendliness with everyone, including the guests. The largest thing that stood out to us was how much all of our other vendors loved Lissa and working with her, and we could see it throughout the day. Our venue had restrictions such as a short setup window, but Lissa communicated with them and navigated the situation very well to make everything go smoothly.

“We had an exceptional experience with Evermore Occasions for our wedding in August 2024, and I can’t recommend highly enough. Carmen’s expertise was evident from the beginning as they worked with us to expertly managed every detail. Through their AislePlanner app, we meticulously discussed and documented everything from inspiration photos and checklists to guest lists, seating charts, budgeting, and timelines. Carmen and her team were incredibly organized and kept us aligned with every decision. Their attention to detail was impeccable, covering everything from communicating with wedding VIPs to organizing the ceremony setup, reception seating, favors, place settings, and ensuring compliance with venue regulations. They even handled the napkin folds and breakdown with precision. On the wedding day, Carmen and her team guided us seamlessly through the timeline, which had the perfect amount of buffer to accommodate any unexpected changes. We were kept informed about any issues—like one guest feeling unwell—only as needed, allowing us to truly enjoy our day. The positive feedback from our guests about the event’s flawless orchestration was overwhelming. The day after the wedding, we were amazed to find that everything had been packed up and returned without any extra venue charges. This smooth transition is a testament to Carmen and her team's dedication and efficiency. Their patience and support throughout the planning process turned what could have been a stressful experience into a joy. I wholeheartedly recommend Evermore Occasions to anyone looking for top-notch wedding planning services.”

“Covenant Co Say "YES" To Less Stress was an incredible wedding planner that made our special day run seamlessly. From the very beginning, their communication was quick, efficient and knowledgeable. On the day of the wedding, their day-of coordination was invaluable, helping me locate last minute vendors and ensuring everything went according to plan. Jasmine, our planner, was so sweet and attentive, listening closely to all of my concerns and wishes, and executing them perfectly. I cannot recommend Covenant Co Say "YES" To Less Stress enough for their professionalism, expertise, and dedication to making our wedding day truly unforgettable.”

“We hired Ashley as our month of coordinator and we could not have been happier! Ashley provided monthly calls a couple months before our wedding making sure that we were on track with everything we needed. She gave so many helpful recommendations whether it was for setup, vendors, or decor. Ashley and her team were so great the day of our wedding. Truthfully, if anything went wrong, I would have had no idea. She helped the day go so smoothly, checking in and making sure we were doing good during all the events. She truly was a blessing and we could not have made it through our wedding without her!!”

“Courtney review Courtney was the coordinator for our Sunday afternoon wedding at Patterson Mansion in Dupont Circle. From the moment we met, her joyful energy exuded from her and I knew that she would do everything she could to ensure we felt the same way. And she way over delivered! Courtney was organized and extremely communicative with us and our vendors. She had a clear sequence of agenda items for our check ins and was always on time and prepared. This was all wonderful and set a strong foundation for the day of. Courtney truly went above and beyond on wedding day. She set up the room more beautifully than I ever could have hoped for and brought tears to my eyes. She handled unexpected guests with calm and poise and ensured everyone had a place to be and a meal to eat. I’m sure many brides understand that I was about to lose my mind, but Courtney just had it. She made it happen and I didn’t have to think about it at all. It was an absolutely gorgeous day and so much of that is thanks to Courtney’s presence, organization, energy, and kindness. Highly highly highly recommend working with her!”

“I've been lucky enough as a vendor to work with Shaymah a couple of times now and each time it's just like working with an amazingly talented & organized friend. She's so personable & detail oriented. Takes her time to make sure your timeline as a vendor is cohesive with the master timeline. Honestly, if every time I worked with a wedding planner it went as smoothly as Shaymah's events...I wouldn't even know what to do with myself!”
