We worked with Happy Hour Hostess for our wedding on July 20th, 2026. We worked mostly with Alex and can I just say, WOW. 10/10 service, support, organization, etc. During the wedding day, our vendors decided to throw some lovely curve balls our direction and Alex and her HHH team handled them with ease, fixing any and all problems that came our direction. They are worth every penny. Definitely have the bride and groom's well-being at the forefront of their minds!

We had the absolute privilege of working with Carrie as our wedding planner. From start to finish, she managed every detail of our wedding with precision and grace, ensuring everything came together seamlessly. Thanks to her, we were able to fully relax and enjoy the day, knowing everything was in perfect hands.

Over the course of 10 months, Carrie worked closely with us to bring our vision to life—and calling it perfect feels like an understatement. She and her team operate on another level.

Carrie’s warm personality and calming presence made the entire planning process not only smooth but genuinely enjoyable. We’re beyond grateful for everything she did to make our day so special.

The Happy Hour Hostess was absolutely incredible to work with! From the start, the company was responsive and provided wonderful detail about the different wedding planning packages, making it easy to find the perfect fit for us. Our planner, Alex, went above and beyond in every way—she made our day run seamlessly, kept us organized, ensured we thought of every detail, and, most importantly, made sure we were stress-free. Because of her, we were able to truly enjoy the day with our family and friends, confident that everything would go off without a hitch. She was simply unbelievable!

Hiring The Happy Hour Hostess was one of the best choices we made. Alex and team did a fantastic job of running the day flawlessly—they thought of everything and are so organized, friendly and professional. They understood our vision and made everything so easy for us that we had nothing to worry about the day of the wedding!

We used Happy Hour Hostess's month-of coordination service for our wedding on 10/28/23 and I feel like it may have been one of the best decisions I've ever made, no hyperbole. The first time we spoke with Carrie it felt like a great fit and she talked through our vision with us and gave us a couple tips. We wanted to do most of the planning ourselves, but a major factor for us in booking HHH was the ability to hire Carrie for a few additional hours to come to our design meeting at the venue. She. Was. Amazing. From offering ideas for beautiful place settings to helping us set priorities and decide what was and wasn't "worth it", I genuinely don't know how we could have gotten through that meeting without her. And she took extensive notes that she sent to us afterwards and kept in her file so that when we reached the month of our wedding, HHH already had tons of information about what our tables should look like and what the layout of each room was. For month-of coordination we worked with Mallory, and I could go on forever about how fantastic she is. At our wedding, Mallory was accompanied by Annie and they were so fun to have around and just so in command of everything. There was no detail Mallory wasn't aware of and no question she couldn't answer. It was so nice to have someone we trusted and could say "just do whatever you think" or "we'll leave that up to you". She made sure that everything went incredibly smoothly and, from our perspective, the day was absolutely perfect. If anything went wrong we didn't know about it. And, again, she managed all this while being a fun presence and truly helping us celebrate. When we started planning I wasn't sure whether we would hire a coordinator or not, and now I can't imagine having our wedding without HHH and Mallory. The fact that we were able to host such a beautiful event relatively stress-free is a testament to Happy Hour Hostess and the wonderful work they do. I just can't recommend them enough.

Carrie and her team are incredible. She is funny, responsible, detail-oriented and handled are large wedding with superb professionalism. With her help, she made our wedding day perfect. I highly recommend, She is the best!!

Carrie and her team are incredible!!! We were really nervous about how stressful wedding planning can be, and HHH took care of absolutely everything! There’s so much niche knowledge when it comes to weddings and things come up the week-of (or even day-of), and Carrie’s team handled it all so we could relax and enjoy the day. On top of all that, they’re so fun to work with I’m actually going to miss them! Of all the costs that go into a wedding, this is 1000% the best value. I would rather invite fewer people than not have HHH there haha.

Where do I even begin??? Carrie and the entire HHH team are PHENOMENAL. My sister got married 5 years ago and used a different planner. While it all went ok, I can say from experience that Carrie is top. notch. The best in the biz. She was arguably even more excited about our wedding than we were and it made me realize what a special season of life this is and how we could make our wedding dreams come true. Her warmth and excitement combined with her calmness and professionalism is perfect. She is well-versed, connected, and beloved by other vendors in the industry. She will navigate all aspects of your day and leading up to your day with ease. She worked very closely with my mom and was a huge help to MOB and bride :) She asks the right questions you’d never think to ask and juggles multiple items and tasks all the while making YOU feel like the most special bride and being present with you in your vendor meetings and beyond. Always a text, email or call away too. And let me be clear—Krystinia and her entire team are ON. POINT. too. It shows that Carrie is an A+ business owner and expert planner and she trains and grows all the rest of her talent. Carrie is so likeable, so knowledgeable, and she positively builds up all those around her whether it’s her coworkers, colleagues in the industry, family of the bride or groom, strangers, you name it. This is the kind of planner you want to entrust with your wedding. I don’t even need to go into minute detail because I can just say Carrie had all the details and pivoting down! Especially as we shifted, downsized, postponed our reception, all the things, because of COVID. Carrie did not miss a beat and our day was PERFECT. Hire her already!!!! My husband and I love The Happy Hour Hostess!!

My husband and I are both incredibly busy and live in separate cities for work, so we knew we needed a wedding planner. We met Carrie and Krystinia at a bridal expo in Norfolk. Over the year of planning, Carrie and Krystinia became two of the most important women in my life. They made all my impossible vision come true and were just rock-solid all-stars who were available to talk whenever and be a shoulder to lean on. They conquered obstacle after obstacle of my crazy vision and made it a reality with such ease. They talk about post-wedding blues because of the come-down after such a huge event, but my post-wedding blues were the reality that we wouldn't be in constant communication anymore. The team at The Happy Hour Hostess is the best in the business if you want people who genuinely care about relationships and making your day perfect.

As a professional Wedding DJ, I have worked with The Happy Hour Hostess Wedding Team on numerous weddings....most recently on 9 August 2019 at the Historic Post Office. Krystinia Carney was the Team Lead and she was phenominal. Krystinia kept all vendors informed and ensured all facets of the client's wedding ceremony, cocktail hour & reception were flawless. If you're searching for a wedding coordination team that will relieve the stresses associated with planning your wedding, look no further than The Happy Hour Hostess.
