We have had a great working relationship for 10 years. She is always on top of all details and particulars.
We LOVE working with Elizabeth Bailey and her associates. They sure know how to create one-of-a-kind fabulous evens that are smooth, stress-free and memorable! And BTW, here is an insider tip: great wedding planner is an INVESTMENT, not an expense! you have no idea what kind of days they save (and we see it all...)!
Beth is amazing to work with and her brides LOVE her. She's been doing this so long that my wife worked with her on several weddings at the Lord Baltimore Hotel. She's also a great resource and knows practically every vendor in the area!
Elizabeth and her team with Elizabeth Bailey Weddings not only are a pleasure to work with, but on top of their game as well! We had the pleasure of working with Elizabeth and her team when photographing the wedding of Sara Albert (ANTM: Season 6) as her wedding took place in Baltimore this year. It was our first time working with Elizabeth and her team, it can be hard sometimes walking on site and not having met the coordinator before the event, however Elizabeth and her team were pleasant, efficient, and kept us in the loop every step of the way. All events took place on time and without any interference, it was completely flawless. We highly recommend Elizabeth and her staff as it is always a pleasure seeing friendly, happy, and smiling faces when you arrive on site for any event!
As event videographers our greatest ally is someone who can tell us where and when things are going to happen well in advance of them actually happening. We are then in place and waiting to capture every moment of the magic. This makes us appear extremely psychic and in tune with all things wedding. However, our secret weapon is Elizabeth Bailey and her amazing staff. We have worked with Beth for well over a decade now and she truly is our wedding hero. We are always informed about every aspect of what is going on to the minutest of details. This then allows us to create the best possible work for our clients. Thank You Elizabeth Bailey!!
Elizabeth Bailey is the quintesenntial wedding planner. Never pushy. Very detailed oriented. She will assist you in planning the perfect wedding day.
As the band manager for Onyx, I’ve worked with many, many party planners in my 20 years in the band and Elizabeth is always a pleasure to work with. Her warm personality and attention to detail is not just reserved for clients, but for the vendors that work for her as well. Elizabeth understands that it takes a cooperative effort of everyone to have a wedding day not only go smoothly, but to be able to go beyond the wildest expectations of her clients.

Working with Elizabeth Bailey and her team of professionals is a photographer's dream. Her ability to create a unique ambiance reflecting the couple's style and sensibilities is quite astounding. No two weddings are ever the same. Each is a visual treat. From her attention to the smallest of details to her overall event co-ordination, Elizabeth is a powerful force in the world of wedding planning.
I have worked with Beth for over 10 years and she has always been my top referred planner. Her contacts and connections will ensure her clients receive anything and everything they want. She goes above and beyond the call of duty for her couples, thinking of the smallest of details and making it look so easy. She is always calm, relaxed, and in control without "taking control" from the other professionals she works with. It is always a relief when I find out I am working an event with Beth.
Beth is one of the nicest, most organized and most personable and professional planners around. Beth and her staff make every important detail happen on your special day! Highly recommend!!!

Additional Questions and Answers

Q.  Will I (as the client) be active in the planning of my event?
A.  Of course. 
A wedding consultant acts as a team member and confidant to assist you in planning the perfect event.  In your initial meeting, you can communicate the level of participation you wish to have in the process.

Q. Will you be at my ceremony & reception?
A. Yes!  An
Elizabeth Bailey Weddings event planner will be at all events unless otherwise communicated to you.  Depending on your level of service selected, she will also be with you during your rehearsal, site/venue selections, vendor selections, and wedding dress/bridal shop selections.

A. Sure! 
Whether you are planning an exotic themed event, or you are looking for a popular Top 40 band at your reception, we will fulfill your every request (as long as it’s legal) when it comes to the planning of your event.

Q. Can you "run" the rehearsal?

A. Yes, sometimes priests, ministers or rabbis are unavailable for wedding rehearsals, but rest assured that in the event of their absence, your wedding planner will serve as your wedding rehearsal guide and communicate all details to your ceremony officiant.

Q.  What is the difference between day-of coordination and full-service consulting?
A.  There are many. 
But the main difference is the amount of planning services a client receives.  Day-of coordination is designed for couples who have completed their wedding plans, and want someone to ensure their event runs smoothly and to their satisfaction.  Consultation clients receive this service, plus the benefit of assistance with the selecting, hiring, and negotiation of vendors in addition to dozens of other services.
