Absolutely incredible eye for design and detail

We absolutely could not have planned this wedding without Emme at The One Moment Events. We thought we could handle everything ourselves and found out quickly how much work goes into a wedding. She stayed on calls for hours problem solving, helping us figure out design ideas, and helping us to contact unresponsive vendors. She was incredibly detail-oriented, took notes on everything, and sent us regular updates to keep us on track. Most importantly, she was a gem to talk to and was always upbeat, excited, and the voice of reason when we were frazzled and panicked over something minor. She made our day exponentially better because of her eye for design and being on top of the timeline and all the details.

We are so grateful to her and want to thank her again and again. THANK YOU!

Unparalleled wedding planning!

Hiring Rachel and The One Moment Events to plan our wedding was the one of best decisions we've ever made! Early in the process Rachel and team met with us on countless occasions to help realize our vision. Their vendor connections in the DMV area are unmatched! These relationships not only helped secure the right services to meet our preferences, but everyone LOVES working with Rachel, which made the day of coordination seamless.

Being a "Covid" wedding where we were forced to postpone almost a year out, Rachel made sure that everything shifted to our new date, and was extremely supportive during that stressful time. Not only are you getting a true professional when hiring TOME, but you are also getting a team that genuinely cares, who will go above and beyond to meet your every need.

The most amazing wedding planning team!

We hired Moriah and The One Moments Events team for our May 2021 wedding. Moriah was so amazing about reminding us about the big and small wedding details throughout our planned pre-wedding check ins leading up to the big day.

Our friends and family commented on how smooth the day went and Moriah went above and beyond to make sure we had a spectacular day.
We would highly recommend using The One Moment Events & Moriah again!
