Ann was an absolute lifesaver for our wedding! From the moment we hired her as our day-of coordinator, she went above and beyond to make our wedding day truly special. Ann provided so many helpful planning resources and connected us with trusted vendors, which made the entire planning process so much easier. For example, she had tools to help us figure out how many and what items we needed to rent for linens and china, and she provided a comprehensive list of possible decor items so we didn't forget a single detail. Her organizational skills were impeccable, and she deliberately took tasks off our plate, which was a huge help in making the entire process stress-free.

On the day of the wedding, she was a whirlwind of quiet efficiency. We barely saw her because she was working tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure everything ran seamlessly. From fixing boutonnières and expertly rearranging decor between multiple spaces (which actually helped us save money!), to helping us create a realistic timeline, we couldn't have asked for anyone better. We would never have been able to truly sit back and enjoy the day of our wedding without her. She thought of everything! If you're looking for a day-of coordinator who is organized, proactive, communicative, and truly cares about making your wedding day perfect, we wholeheartedly recommend Ann!

From the interview through the end of our daughter’s wedding day, Ann was full of useful information and creative thinking. She was always available when we had questions. Her level of communication is excellent, and she coordinates well with all of the vendors. Ann knows her business and is fluid with whatever situation presents itself. We have received so many compliments about how fun, thoughtful, beautiful the ceremony and reception were, and she took great care of the bride and groom. Ann Bowe is a wonderful wedding coordinator that you will be thrilled to you have on your team.

Ann was a pure joy to work with every step of the way. As a pretty organized bride , Ann’s communication with our venue and vendor team leading up to the big day was so vital to the flow of the day so that I could enjoy being a bride on my wedding day. Ann’s level of professionalism and accessibility is unmatched! I highly recommend her for all things planning as part of your big day.

Working with Ann was the best decision I made for my wedding. She made the planning process easy and stress-free. She made my wedding day flow perfectly and my vision came to life perfectly. Ann prioritized my needs and handled everything with care. If you are on the fence and thinking about not getting a wedding coordinator in order to save money I would tell you that you absolutely NEED to have one. Ann saved the day countless times and that is priceless. If I could give her more than 5 stars I would, I 100% recommend working with her.

Ann was a true lifesaver when it came to all of the details leading up to and on our big day. We would recommend her to anyone and everyone!

Ann was the day-of coordinator for my wedding in April 2022. My husband and I feel so lucky to have worked with her and had the opportunity to get to know her. Ann is highly knowledgeable, detail-oriented, and committed to making your big day a success! She went above and beyond to make sure we were organized, had all of our questions answered, and had our other vendors on the same page for the wedding day. She was incredibly responsive every time we reached out. Plus, Ann was extremely friendly and kind and kept things light-hearted and clear, even when we were in a challenging situation. On the day of the wedding, she made our lives so easy by taking on a ton of the last minute tasks, leading all of the coordination with other vendors, and ensuring we were sticking to the schedule. We ran into issues with the wedding arch and Ann handled it all to make sure the decorations were still beautiful and in the spirit of what we had envisioned for our big day. I can’t say enough good things about Ann! If you are looking for a day-of coordinator in the Williamsburg area, you cannot go wrong with Celebrations by Design!
