Felicia and her team was fantastic to work with. If you are looking for a professional wedding planner, Felicia is your lady! She is very organized and makes the wedding details process so easy. We could not have done it without all her help. She and her team are so pleasant to work with and they know what they are doing. If you need a planner, you better reach out to Felicia! You will be HAPPY you did!! -

Felicia’s experience, dedication, and genuine care for her clients sets CMS apart from all the others! We used CMS for Month of Planning at a luxury venue in Virginia and we’re able to enjoy our perfect day while our planning team handled all of the details. Even with Month of Planning, Felicia stepped in nearly a full year prior to the wedding to assist in vendor selections, contract review, and helping guide us through the many stages of planning a luxury wedding. I cannot thank Felicia and her team enough for the superb work and for being so incredible to work with. We will miss you and wish you all the best! -

My gosh, Felicia, we are so thankful that we hired you and your team! From the video planning calls every month to email check ins, to the checklist, to the actual day of coordination, and everything in between - YOU WERE AMAZING! Everyone that knows me knows that I am not a very organized person and you seriously helped us so much! You kept us on track with the planning, gave subtle reminders, and gave us great vendor suggestions and advice throughout the whole process! On the day of, you took all of the planning and set up stress off of our chests and you and your team set up the venue with my exact vision in mind!!! You were so attentive and helpful throughout the day and always had a smile on your face and positive energy that came with you. You kept the timeline going and checked in with all of the other vendors so that we did not have to worry about literally anything. We really could not say enough nice things about you and your team and could not thank you enough. Best decision we made in the planning process was to hire you!!! THANK YOU!!!! -

First and for most Felicia makes you feel as if you are the only couple she is working with throughout the whole process, even when I knew she was working on four weddings. Felicia's gives feedback and helpful suggestions but always supported my wishes. She was prompt and personable at all of our meetings. For the wedding day she worked with a team of 3 - which I believe made all the difference. We had a very smooth event and hands down I would hire CMS again! -

Myrka Sent on 10/15/2021Can't recommend Felicia enough!
We hired Felicia at the recommendation of a friend who's wedding we'd attended that she was the planner for back in 2018. We hired for to assist with month of planning and she went above and beyond - attending our catering tasting, our rentals appt, reviewing vendor contracts for us all well before the wedding month.
I told my now husband that I wanted to be able to wake up on our wedding day, go to the venue, relax with my bridal party, get our hair & makeup done and not worry or have to deal with about any setup, vendors, family/friend arrivals. He was skeptical that would be possible but Felicia truly made that dream a reality.
Our wedding was last month and Felicia & her team made the day. Everything ran so smoothly, I had no idea what time it was all day bc she made sure we were all were we needed to be and when kept everyone on schedule. Her vendor and wedding party timelines are a thing of beauty and precision. She and her team did also did an incredible job setting up the reception area and putting out all our decor! Felicia also went above and beyond, taking our left over decor after the wedding and holding onto it for us for 2-3 weeks afterwards. -

Felicia was amazing. My dress literally broke on the wedding day and she was calm and she FIXED IT. You can't really do better than that. Felicia was prompt and responsive throughout the whole process, handled everything. The week of our wedding, we were just chilling because she had prepared so much in advance. BOOK CELEBRATIONS MADE SIMPLE! -

Kasandra Sent on 06/28/2021Best planner services hands down!
Felicia is a pro and it shows! From day one, she handled the details and logistics for our big day with ease and great care. She made us feel like we were her only clients and was always attentive to our needs. Any questions or requests were always handled/answered promptly. She left no stone unturned. I’m sad that our big day is over but I can say with certainty that I am beyond happy we chose Felicia to handle our wedding, it couldn’t have been put in better hands. We will forever be grateful. -

We contacted Felicia in the last days of our wedding prep to serve as a "day of" coordinator; she ended up being a day of savior! Her attention to detail and genuine care that we get everything we wanted for our special day -- which was happening during the restriction of COVID-19 -- made all the difference. She was recommended by friends of ours, whose wedding we attended. That, too, was flawless. She is kind, direct, and the most amazing professional. If you need a General for your Wedding War Room, think no more. We are so grateful to her and her amazing care. -

Every experience my husband and I have had with Felicia and her team has been absolutely perfect. The first time we spoke with her over the phone we knew she would be the right choice. Felicia is responsive, informative, incredibly helpful, and overall a wonderful person. We love our time spent with her. Thank you, Felicia for making our day seamless, stress-free, and unforgettable! -

Shaniqua Sent on 06/20/2018Celebrations Made Simple made our wedding go very well! Our wedding started on time, and ended on time. Everyone who worked from Celebrations Made Simple were professional and pleasant to work with! Felicia was a pleasure to work with from beginning to end. When I met Felicia to get a feel of who I wanted to work with, I knew after the first meeting, I wanted her as my wedding planner. Felicia is very knowledgeable about vendors and making weddings transition very smoothly. I am so glad to have had Celebrations Made Simple be a part of our wedding! Thanks Celebrations Made Simple!!!!! -

Mckenna Sent on 02/28/2016Felicia and her team were amazing. We used their services for a "Day of Package" but it included so much more! I planned our whole wedding with my mother's assistance, but felecia was always there to attend vendor meetings and to give sound advice stemming from her many years in consulting for weddings. Felicia made the month leading up to the wedding as stress free as possible which was very helpful for me also planning a move two days after the wedding. she took all of the supplies off my hands several days before the big day and ensured it was all taken down to DC. The Ceremony, Cocktail and Reception spaces looked amazing and the design plan was followed to the T! Her Team mates were lovely and life savers when we noticed one thing had been forgotten and they collected it! Her team even provided child care for our Reception which was lovely because it allowed a few of my family members with little ones a bit of a reprieve so they too could enjoy the festivities. (Some of the little ones usually have stranger danger, but they LOVED every second of it and were calm the whole evening).
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you Felicia! You and your team were the best decision we made in regards to our wedding planning! -

Ann Sent on 09/16/2012The night before our wedding, one of our friends asked how I was feeling, to which I responded, "I'm relaxed and I feel great!" Our ability to relax and enjoy the rehearsal, wedding, and our next-day picnic is in large part thanks to Celebrations Made Simple, Felicia in particular, and her fantastic staff.
We used Celebrations Made Simple's Comprehensive Service Package (planning, theme, budget, help with vendors, contract negotiation/review, timelines, ridiculously awesome responsiveness, consultations, invitation mailing and RSVP management, day-of coordination, and general herding of cats). After everything CMS helped us with (including A LOT of communicating and occasional problem solving with vendors on our behalf), I am honestly not sure how people plan their own weddings. Felicia was there with us every step of the way, keeping us on track with reminders (buying a dress, paying vendor deposits, scheduling fittings, etc.). She was also very skillful at arranging meetings around crazy work and travel schedules. CMS had everything covered and we really were able to enjoy our entire wedding weekend. The only thing I was responsible for on the wedding day was to wake up and get myself to the Bride Beautification Station (hair and makeup suite at our hotel). CMS provided exceptional service!! We cannot say enough about how fantastic it was to work with Felicia. In fact, we miss her now that the wedding is over. :o)

Angela Sent on 10/19/2010CMS was a delight and welcomed blessing! While I have helped many a friend execute a party, I had no idea what I was getting into in planning a 10/10/10 wedding in the DC metro area. Ms. Felicia and her staff made it possible with tireless effort, patience, support, understanding and affordaility! Her appreciation of detail, ability to work out logistics and prioritorize your budget are priceless. Through working with her, we were also linked to a host of other stellar providers with the same passion for quality work. Look no further for your wedding needs! -

Responsive & Excellent Tracking
I had the pleasure of working with Felicia for my wedding. Felicia is just an amazing human being to begin with, so that made meeting with her and getting our work done even easier because she was always so upbeat. Felicia is great with tracking activities, working with vendors and the venue, and uses a great wedding tool to keep track of everything and make a bride's life easier! -
