Perfect Wedding Planner

As the bride without a clue what I wanted, Covenant Weddings was exactly what I needed. Mrs. George and her staff were full of ideas and experience to guide us to a beautiful wedding. Communication with Mrs, George and her staff was honest, professional and as often as we needed. No detail was overlooked or went unanswered. She and her staff are the reason wedding planners are needed creating wonderful wedding experiences.

The best wedding planner around!

Let me tell you something…if you don’t hire Diane and her team, you’d be making a huge mistake!!! Diane was an excellent planner and has an invaluable wealth of knowledge about the entire wedding industry as a whole. Diane was also always readily available for my husband and I throughout the entire wedding planning process. No detail was overlooked and no question was too small. Diane also referred us to many top notch vendors and did everything in her power to ensure that our vision was brought to life flawlessly and beautifully. Diane is also just an all around great person, is so supportive, and we are honored to be able to call her a lifelong friend moving forward.

Wonderful Experience

Would absolutely recommend Covenant Weddings! Diane runs the shop and was very knowledgeable about weddings in general. From vendor recommendations to wedding advice/etiquette information, Diane always had an answer or suggestion. Her deep experience allowed us to trust her with our vision and it paid off in the end. :) Diane and her team ensured the day ran smoothly and were extremely professional (even keeping everyone on point during rehearsals!).

Early on, she helped us map out a budget and planning schedule which helped highlight things we would've never thought of. She also had a number of handy "things to purchase/bring" lists that helped ensure nothing was forgotten.

Moreover, we had an interfaith wedding (Christian and Jewish) and Diane was still able to help make our day magical while being considerate of how we wanted to interweave both faiths.

Have to reemphasize, Diane's vendor recommendations--all were stellar and we ended up using most. All were professional/reasonably priced and seemed to have a great relationship with Diane which worked really well for the outcome of the wedding. Overall, couldn't have asked for a better wedding planner :).

Amazing Planners and Coordinators

Our New Year's Day Wedding was a hit, thanks to the team at Covenant Weddings. My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Janice & Chantel for our wedding. We paid for the day-of coordination package, but the team went above and beyond! Janice and Chantel helped me to stay organized during this process, and they truly made the planning experience unique and unforegettable. Their team also did a great day at our wedding. Our guests felt like they were in a movie. I love that this company is flexible on modern wedding trends and always honest. They executed the modern wedding vision that I had beautifully. I highly recommend this company. I also referred them out to my friends who are currently planning their upcoming nuptials.

An amazing partner throughout the wedding planning process!

Wedding planning can be a stressful and complicated time- but having Diane by my side made things a LOT more enjoyable. From the moment we met to until the end of my reception, Diane was constantly available to answer all my questions and fend off stressors. Her knowledge of the wedding industry and eye for detail made our wedding day the best day ever. Highly recommend!

DMV’s Best Planner!

I want to thank you for having Rodney and me as your clients turned friends. This has been one of the most challenging undertakings yet your professionalism, expertise and profound knowledge in this industry made things smooth for us. What I love the most was getting to know you and your value of tradition. I am too grateful for how you introduced me to the normalities of how things are done here.

I appreciate you and am truly grateful for all your kinds words, the late calls, and most importantly how you kept me together when I was overwhelmed.

Again, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you for everything!
