Made our day flawless

I knew I would need a day-of management for our wedding at the USNA Chapel and Club, and with less than ideal time left before the wedding, I reached out to Wedding Savvy for help. Leslie Jefferson returned my call almost immediately, and from that point on never let more than minutes go by before responding to texts or calls. But timeliness wasn’t even her most impressive skill, attention to every nuanced moment leading up to the wedding is what made Leslie priceless to us. She has an acute knowledge of her towns and other vendors; her offer to help with last minute issues I would not have ordinarily put on anyone else kept important aspects of the wedding from complete collapse. Being an out of town bride, I didn’t know who to go to for some last minute printing. Leslie took care of this and made sure we had everything we needed. Leslie, was with us at rehearsals to be a second set of eyes and ears; she was with us early on the wedding day making sure everyone did their part, showed up on time and made our day beautiful. She stays calm and she calms others with her kind and supportive demeanor. Leslie was such a blessing to me from the time she took us on.

Best wedding planner!! Leslie is amazing

Leslie from Wedding Savvy was the best wedding coordinator we could have ever asked for. We first met her two months out from our wedding and she helped us work through timelines and create our vision for our May wedding. She was the most organized, professional, and communicative planner and helped the planning process go so seamlessly. She, along with her assistant Sydney, kept our wedding day running so smoothly, keeping us on schedule and handling anything and everything in such a professional way so we could enjoy our day. So many of our guests gave us compliments about her saying how great she was! She truly made the day so special and we are forever grateful.

Outstanding Wedding Planners!!!

Hire Wedding Savvy for your best wedding ever! Your day will be outstanding!!
I was an out-of-town bride and needed someone local to give expert advice, handle planning, and provide day-of management. I interviewed several planers, but from the moment I contacted Wedding Savvy, I knew they were the ONE!
I worked with Leslie, and her responsiveness, professionalism, and knowledge are beyond superb and spot-on. She got back to me immediately when I had questions, provided excellent guidance, and was proactive on all details. In addition, Leslie's knowledge of the Annapolis area, wedding venues, and vendors is exceptional. She got to know me, and she know exactly what I wanted, and made that happen. She is expert in her field! She is also kind, caring, and supportive--a truly wonderful person!
Our wedding was held at the Naval Chapel and the Naval Academy Club. Wedding Savvy new all the policies, procedures and protocol of the Academy, which made our day smooth and seamless for both my guests and the wedding party. Leslie's contacts and knowledge of the USNA was a huge stress relief for me.
Leslie and Wedding Savvy were with me every step of the way. Book Wedding Savvy now and have confidence that your wedding will be everything you dreamed of and more!
