We found Best Wishes through a Facebook group while searching for wedding coordinators who had already worked at our venue, and choosing them was one of the best decisions we could have made for our special day. We had the honor of working with

Katherine and her team, and her prior experience with the venue and familiarity working with the on-site team allowed everything to run seamlessly from start to finish. Katherine and her team showed exceptional grace, professionalism, and an acute attention to detail throughout the entire planning process. Her positivity was truly refreshing because at no point did we ever feel pressured into decisions that did not fit with our wedding vision. Instead, she offered thoughtful suggestions, especially when we were experiencing decision fatigue, helping guide us with clarity and confidence.

When preparing our timeline, there were moments when I worried that some of our requests might be “too much,” but Katherine consistently reassured me and reminded me that this was our day. That encouragement meant more than she probably knows and allowed us to plan with trust and excited anticipation.

Because of her calm leadership and seamless management of our timeline and vendors, we were able to be fully present and truly enjoy our wedding day without worry. We are especially grateful for the care she took to consider our older family members who traveled near and far, making sure they felt comfortable, included, and supported throughout the celebration.

The wedding was truly a success, with so many family members and friends telling us it was the most fun they’ve had in a long time. There is a reason Katherine is recognized as part of this year’s Loudoun 40 Under 40. We feel incredibly lucky to have worked with her and the Best Wishes team to create the most memorable day of our lives. Thank you, Katherine and the entire team at Best Wishes!

Best Wishes delivered everything perfectly for our special day! So grateful

My husband and I agree that Katherine and the Best Wishes team were the real MVPs of our big day. As a day-of-coordinator, she was instrumental in keeping things running on time, directing people where to go, and being the calm, friendly face my parents and bridal party could go to with questions. Our service technically started eight weeks out, but the team sent me recommendations for needed vendors before then. The really have your best interests at heart.

I couldn’t decide if we needed a coordinator for our small ceremony, but I knew we should hire Stevie as soon as we chatted! Leading up to our big day, she was so helpful & offered great advice as we talked through the details, and she even had experience with our venues. On our rainy wedding day, Stevie saved the day as she helped pivot our outdoor decorations to our backup tented area so that it looked like it was planned to be in the tent all along! We’re so glad we had Stevie there to coordinate with vendors, move decor to our reception location, and ensure everything went smoothly!

Stevie allowed us to have the most enjoyable weekend and wedding day! From the minute I met Stevie, she instantly felt like a friend! She was honest and educated. I booked her for partial planning service but she went above and beyond in every aspect! From communication with vendors to helping to plan my vision, by the time it was the wedding day Stevie knew the vision so intimately that she was able to execute everything perfectly without coming to me for anything. I didn’t even know changes had to be made during the day until I saw photos afterwards! I have witnessed many day of coordinators in friends weddings while in their wedding parties and I can say hands down Stevie has been the best day of coordinator! If you’re looking for any day of coordinator or planning services at an affordable price point, Stevie will go above and beyond and is definitely your girl!

We had such a great experience with Best Wishes running the show on the most important day of our lives! Not only did they travel from VA to NC for the wedding, but they became experts on all things Bald Head Island in a matter of hours. They were so attentive and flexible and made the day seamless. Stevie and Katherine were amazing and we would highly recommend them to any couple!
Halley & Steven, October 2022

Stevie was the best addition to my big day that I could have asked for. She was essentially my best friend throughout the planning process. She was responsive to all my questions, detail-oriented, and made sure all my dreams came true. On our big day, she was reassuring and worked so incredibly hard to ensure that it was exactly what we wanted all while keeping everyone in line. Stevie and her team are worth every penny!

We hired Stevie as our day-of-coordinator one month before our wedding and it was soooo worth it. I was on the fence about getting a coordinator because I had planned every little detail and wanted to save money. I don't know what I would have done without her and 1000% recommend her and her team! She truly is a bride's best friend!! We went through every detail so that she understood my vision and then she carried it out flawlesslv. I didn't even realize anything went wrong until the next day when we debriefed! The communication for the entire time leading up to the wedding and especially with everyone the actual day, was amazing (which is not easy with our families). If you don't think you need a day-of-coordinator, you definitely do and you definitely need Stevie at Best Wished Loudon!

Best Wishes helped make my wedding day seamless and made it so I could relax and enjoy my wedding day!
