Towanna was a life saver! We hired her about a month before our wedding as a day-of coordinator and she helped to put me at ease right from the start! She took care of finding a great last-minute officiant, called guests to get their RSVPs, coordinated things with our other vendors, was helpful with feedback regarding accessory shopping, was always responsive to calls/emails, checked in often and greatly reduced my stress level! Our wedding was wonderful and we are so grateful for Towanna's help! She's awesome!

Having BellaChic plan our Wedding was one of the best decisions my husband and I made and we would like to say a huge thank you for planning a memorable wedding.

Towanna gives you lots of creative ideas based on your requirements. With her help, I found the perfect dress. My husband and I were also clueless as to where to get our wedding cake and what type of cake, but BellaChic sorted us out with Lora of Gâteau who makes the most amazing cakes - a lady I have to refer to as the Heston Blumenthal of cakes. Towanna also sourced the perfect hotel for our out of town guests. In other words with BellaChic there is always a solution!

We wanted a small, intimate but classy & memorable wedding that would be fun for our guests, and us and would not cost the earth - BellaChic delivered exactly that! As my husband and I are foreigners to the U.S and the DMV area, Towanna and Marlon’s knowledge of the industry and the local area meant that they were able provide us with great competitively priced vendors. Furthermore, we found that BellaChic themselves offered fantastic value for money when compared with other planners we had researched, especially as they went above and beyond to ensure everything went smoothly. With Towanna’s knowledge & attention to detail and Marlon’s creative flair behind the camera, what we got was a readymade packaged solution

Best thing about BellaChic is they care about you; you are not just a client. There is always a personal touch - Towanna and Marlon, where possible, will ensure that they are present with you and help you make well-informed decisions. On the wedding day itself, she made sure that everything went on time and on track, we did not need to worry about a thing. My husband and I focused on each other and us having a good time as the BellaChic team took care of the rest. It is easy to be overwhelmed on the wedding day and we could have been spectators at our own event, but BellaChic made sure that we enjoyed it to its entirety.

Towanna and her team were great with the planning and coordination on the day of our wedding. Towanna was such a pleasure to work with. She brought a calming presence when life started to get a little hectic a month before the wedding. I did most of the planning myself, but Towanna made sure I wasn't missing anything and she recommended and found vendors for me when I needed help. We were having an indian/christian/american fusion wedding. She was already knowledgable about the indian ceremony and customs which made it easier for me. She's very organized and also a great florist! She even arranged our centerpieces for the reception.

I definitely needed someone who could help take over the week before the wedding and make it stress-free for us and our families on the day of the wedding. Towanna and her team did all that. We even had rain issues for our outdoor ceremony at 2941, but she made sure everything was okay.

I didn't hire them for photography since I already booked someone before meeting them, but her partner, Marlon, is a great photographer. He actually took pictures of us after our own photographer left for the evening. They turned out wonderful too!

Definitely have a consultation with Towanna for planning your event (especially if you're having it at 2941 restaurant). She will definitely make sure you have the wedding/event that you always wanted. Plus, you'll have some great new friends by the end of all of it too :-)

Never in my wildest dreams did I think I could have had a more perfect wedding day! I owe a big portion of that perfection to help of BelleChic Luxe Events. Towanna treated my big day as a big day herself and approached it with ease. She did an amazing job with my day of coordination and flower arrangements!! When it came to the photography the whole day was a breeze thanks to Marlon's out of the box approach to picture taking. He managed to get all the shots with ease, patience and a lot of laughs! Their work is filled with so much passion, smiles and enthusiasm. My family, friends, and strangers have been raving about how amazing all the photos are! Huge thanks to them for traveling all they way to the Dominican Republic and doing such an amazing job! I know that BellaChic Luxe Events is going to go far and I would highly recommend them to anyone that truly wants a "BellaChic"(beautiful, elegant and stylish) wedding!

Towanna and her team were the utmost professionals in planning my wedding. She took away a lot stress from what is usually a stressful day. She was very responsive and made herself accessible whenever I needed her. No request was too big or too small for her to handle. I would recommend her to anyone planning a wedding.
