    Dreams Do Come True!

    If you are searching for your personal wedding fairy godmother- stop searching- you have found her. Cody Smith is the epitome of organization, selflessness, and wonderfulness.
    I reached out to Cody during my initial search for a wedding/ day of coordinator. We chatted on the phone about my vision, what I was looking for, my theme, and she gave me so many recommendations; as well as suggestions, since I was planning a wedding outside of my local area. We hadn't even talked about her being hired yet- but she did all of this because she is an amazing human. When my fiancé' came home, I cried to him, telling him I just just fallen in love with Cody during our 30 minute consultation and I wanted/needed her. She was truly my wedding gift!
    Cody organized Zoom meetings, phone calls, and emails between just us and then adding in our other vendors. She wanted to be involved in the entire process to assist us. Cody was available, responsive, caring, and open to my every need and crazy ideas. She embraced the vision, worked her magic, and most importantly, took the time to get to know me. I feel like I made a friend for life in Cody- she was there for my best moment- and every detail leading up to it. Whether you want Cody Smith Weddings for your entire wedding process, or just a day of coordinator- you will not be disappointed; however Cody and her team are work every cent, and I couldn't have enjoyed the planning process as much without her!
    On the day of our wedding, my husband and I looked at each other during dinner and asked how we felt- we ere both eerily calm, relaxed, and at ease. Everyone always says you will be stressed, flying around, and you barely ger to enjoy or remember your wedding day. Due to Cody and her team, everything was taken care of and we got to truly enjoy our entire wedding day- from the drinks, the food, the dancing, the guests, and all the little moments in between- that is absolutely invaluable to me, and it's all due to Cody. I cannot endorse her enough- immense thanks to you Cody!

    Hiring Cody will be the best decision you will make for your wedding!

    Cody is one of the most organized people I have ever met (coming from a very Type A person myself!). From our very first meeting, Cody was on the ball. She came prepared with detailed Google docs that laid out clear to-do lists and helpful information. Planning a wedding can be extremely overwhelming but Cody takes each piece one step at a time so you are never overwhelmed and actually enjoy the process.

    Cody knows everyone there is to know in Charlottesville in the wedding business which is so helpful! Every recommendation she gave us for vendors was absolutely spot on and made whittling down the overwhelming number of wedding vendors in Charlottesville so easy. Her expertise was invaluable since I am located in D.C. and was largely unfamiliar with the many different options in Charlottesville.

    Cody is also SO responsive. I don't think my mom or I ever went more than 30 minutes between an email or text I sent her and her reply for the entire year I had the pleasure of working with her. And oftentimes it was within minutes. She truly made me feel like I was her only client with how attentive she was.

    Our 200-person wedding was at a venue that is relatively new and necessitated us bringing in nearly every element from outside vendors (catering, rentals, flowers, etc.). Cody seamlessly brought together nearly 20 vendors into one cohesive wedding and I still don't know how she did it! She handled all the correspondence with all our various vendors which was such a weight off our shoulders. Countless wedding guests, family members, bridesmaids, and groomsmen came up to me and my mom to sing Cody and her team's praises. They are clearly such a well-oiled machine.

    Cody is also one of the sweetest people I've met. She is always smiling and has a great attitude. She will keep you calm if you are overwhelmed. She will always go out of her way to make sure you are feeling happy and confident during the wedding planning process. Her team is also highly competent, kind, and organized.

    I promise you that Cody is the best in the game and you will be lucky to work with her!

    Looking for a planner? Cody is the only option!

    Working with Cody was the best choice me and my husband made for planning our special day. She was so responsive and constantly communicating with us to ensure that all our major deadlines were met without worry. She facilitated the communication with my other vendors- one less thing I had to worry about while I was working full time. She was immensely organized as well. She never missed a beat and noted every last thing I would say or a vendor would say to ensure a flawless execution that fit my vision. Beyond all her professionalism and connections in the industry, Cody is such a sweet soul. She was like part of the family and made me, my husband, and our family feel so comfortable around her.
    On the big day, she brought an amazing team of people to attend to me and my husband. The bridal and groom attendants were so helpful; they would get us drinks, carry a "go-bag" with lipstick, tissues, blotting sheets, etc, hang out during pictures to hold my drink, fluff my dress, and fix our hair (it was a windy day so this was invaluable!). The attendants were also so comfortable to be around and made me, my husband, and our parties feel so special.
    If you are looking for a planner, Cody is your girl. Her attention to detail, organization skills, connections in the industry, and communication are unmatched. I couldn't imagine going through my wedding without her behind the scenes ensuring it was everything me and my husband wanted.

    AMAZING experience! You've found the BEST planner, book her already!

    Wow. Cody made the experience of planning a wedding not stressful at all. She is super quick to respond to text or email! She advocated for us to our vendors. We had a weekly call going over any questions she had for us or we had for her. She thinks of EVERYTHING. Our vendors knew her already and had only nice things to say about her. We were not planning on hiring a planner, but we are so glad that we did. No regrets at all! Cody made the most detailed wedding day timeline that really helped my type A self. Cody is so easy to talk to and helped us to be relaxed. She even did our florals; she did such a beautiful job for a fraction of the cost! Seriously, we cannot recommend her enough. Book her already!!

    Amazing to work with! Even more amazing wedding!

    Cody is amazing to work with. She is thoughtful and responsive and really takes care of everything so that we were able to enjoy our special day. Especially with our family coming in from out of town, Cody’s services were invaluable. She made our wedding beautiful and so much fun! We can’t thank her enough!

    Cody Surpasses any and all Expectations - Hire Cody as your Wedding Planner!!!

    We worked with Cody the ~1.5yrs leading up to our wedding and highly recommend Cody to anyone and everyone ! Starting with the vendor selection process, she was invaluable in helping us understand what different vendors could bring to the table as well as provide us with objective recommendations based on our preferences (it is also worth pointing out she has experience working with so many vendors, which makes the planning process all the more smooth!). Our brief weekly touchpoints kept us on track and organized and provided an easy opportunity to ask questions and give updates. Going into the process, we weren’t exactly sure what type of aesthetic/general design we wanted for our wedding - Cody was essential in helping us figure this out via her beautiful Design Plan (our wedding really did turn out exactly like the Design Plan!). As work and wedding planning picked up in the months before the wedding, Cody was flexible and clearly had everything under control (she handled all vendor communications which was incredible) – during such a busy time we were (and still are!) extremely grateful for her dedication, attention to detail and excellent organization. The wedding day itself was perfect – all of the decisions Cody had helped us make throughout the planning process were integrated flawlessly and she and her team did a phenomenal job. Because of Cody and her staff, we were able to 100% enjoy our Wedding Day surrounded by friends and family – any last minute questions Cody and her staff had answers and we knew Cody had everything under control. As Cody guided us through the day and evening, she was a consistently comforting presence - any direction she provided (“It’s time to go cut the cake”), she did so in a calm and composed manner, which we truly appreciated (once you realize a wedding day/evening timeline is planned down to the minute, it becomes all the more impressive for your wedding planner to exude calm when she is the one responsible for the execution of this timeline!). On top of everything, Cody is a wonderful person who we feel lucky to have in our lives – she is kind, caring, motivated, understanding, fun…really all the positive adjectives! If you are reading this, there is no need to look any further for Wedding Planners – Cody is the best :)

    She is the best

    Cody is it. We live in NY, TX, & CA but with Cody's direction, the planning of my daughter's Charlottesville wedding was organized, efficient, budget-conscious, and fun. During the wedding, she unobtrusively kept the evening on schedule. My only responsibility that night was to enjoy our family and guests. I can't recommend Cody highly enough.

    But Seriously, You Need to Hire Cody

    The best decision I made for my wedding was hiring Cody.

    Our wedding day itself could not have been more special. Cody delivered on everything we wanted and then some. There were several times that night I just had to give Cody a big hug, given how perfect everything was.

    From our first conversation, it was clear she would offer a personalized service, and that she deeply cared about making our wedding special. She got to know us so well over a short period of time that she was able to accurately predict each choice of vendor we would make before we did. It got to the point that I just asked her to provide her first choice, and then one alternative so I could price compare (and we always picked the first choice!)

    She remained in constant communication leading up to the wedding, and made sure we stayed on schedule and were on track at every step. Her planning documents were meticulous yet made everything easy to keep track of.

    As I mentioned, the wedding itself blew my already high expectations out of the water. From the moment she showed up on the day-of to the last moment of the reception, Cody and her team had everything covered and running smoothly. Even when we had an emergency come up with our wedding suits, her team was able to fix the problem quickly and make sure everything was perfect! As an extremely type-A person, it's hard for me to not stress about the details, but I was able to just relax and enjoy myself all night knowing Cody was handling whatever would come up.

    I could not have asked for a better wedding planner. Do yourself a favor: hire Cody.

    The best decision we made when planning our wedding!

    My husband and I began working with Cody in February 2022 (before we were even engaged!!!) to start planning our wedding in Charlottesville. By that point, we had spoken with several wedding planners before we had met Cody, but right away, we knew she was the one! She shared our excitement, and we were thrilled that there was someone who was so passionate about getting our big day right! Most importantly, we could tell this was more than just a business obligation for her—it’s clear that she wanted our day to be everything we hoped for and more. We’re both busy people, so when selecting a planner, we wanted someone who we could trust—it was clear to us that Cody knew our vision and would make sure that it was executed better than we could even imagine. Cody curated the many service providers, so when we started selecting vendors, we only spoke with the best of the best. Cody is incredibly organized and put our aspirations for the day into something we could visualize, and we could tell she heard us because it was all we wanted and more. Cody took the stress out of planning and I looked forward to our calls with her—it was amazing to see how our hopes for the day translated into concrete plans before our eyes.

    One of the best things about Cody was that we had absolute confidence in her and trusted her throughout the process. This made our busy lives a heck of a lot easier because we knew that she knew our vision and could make that happen. Essentially, when Cody told us that we had a choice to make and that she had a recommendation, I had absolute confidence that what she was recommending was the right call and that, based on her recommendation, that we would go ahead with it. This is a level of trust I don’t even have with some of my best friends, and I never regretted it!

    Because we had Cody working with us throughout the process, as our wedding approached and people asked if we were stressed about making sure the wedding would go off without a hitch, I can confidently say that we weren’t worried about how the day would come together, we could focus on the things that mattered—making sure our vows were right, that the songs we picked were special to us, and why we were getting married in the first place. One of the most impressive things was seeing our wedding date broken down by the minute because the planning was executed so precisely, something that gave some assurance to our families and parties about how the day was going to go.

    The day of, panic ensued—the seams on both my and my husband’s trousers went out! And not only that, but our best matron’s dress ripped before photos even started. This is one more reason I’m thankful we hired Cody—her and her attendants repaired both pairs of trousers and the best matron’s dress, and so quickly I might add that we didn’t even go off schedule for photos. Her team made the whirlwind of the day feel a little bit less stressful and a lot less hectic!

    Essentially, because of Cody and the amazing members of her staff, the ceremony and reception were better than we could have even dreamed of. We, and I don’t put this lightly, were awestruck at how beautiful everything came together, that’s something that could only have happened because of the work of Cody and her team hand in hand with the amazing vendors that we selected with her.

    We are blessed to have worked with Cody to make our wedding perfect. I will always be grateful to Cody, her staff, and the vendors for their hard work and preparation to make that day possible. So, if you’re considering hiring Cody to plan your wedding, hire her. You will not regret it.

    I’ll be talking about how amazing Cody is for years to come!

    I could write a novel about how amazing Cody is at wedding planning (and I will!!) but that’s not the main reason I recommend her so highly. Cody’s real super power is her compassion and how much she truly cares about her brides.
    When we first started talking to planners, we picked Cody because she had the same level of joy and excitement as we did. We had weekly calls to go over upcoming decisions and tasks and if ever I seemed hesitant or anxious or down on those calls, she would always make it a point to check in with me later that week to see if I was feeling better. When there were differing opinions and suggestions from vendors, she was always quick to advocate for my and my husbands preferences and step in when we felt uncomfortable asserting ourselves. She sacrificed her personal time and her comfort to make sure nothing got in the way of us enjoying our special day and we could not be more grateful.
    On top of being an absolutely fabulous human, Cody is also amazing at her job! She’s incredibly organized, making it easy to stay on top of the budget, weekly to-do’s, information requests from vendors and all the little details we never knew we needed to think about. She’s proactive, making sure we knew all the decisions we needed to make way before we had to make them, and providing helpful suggestions when we didn’t know where to start. She’s also diligently created an invaluable network within the industry, sending us many vendor recommendations and providing the vendors we chose with plenty of information to deliver their best. Lastly, she did an amazing job of balancing including our family in the planning process while prioritizing our preferences and our vision for our special day.
    My husband and I got in our getaway car and simply turned to each other said “no notes”! It was the perfect day and Cody was such a massive part of making it that way. I’ll be happily and loudly recommending her the rest of her career!

    Cody far exceeded all expectations!

    From my first conversation with Cody, I knew she was the one! Cody was most definitely the best decision we made for our wedding.
    From the start, she was personable and professional, and I was confident she had our best interests in mind with every decision she made during the planning process.
    It wasn't easy to plan our wedding in Charlottesville after moving out of state two months after getting engaged. Cody made the planning process as easy as possible. I trusted every vendor recommendation Cody provided, and we couldn't have been happier with how everything turned out!
    I truly miss my weekly planning calls with Cody, and I know she will remain a friend for life. Cody possesses all of the qualities you want in a planner--she is extremely responsive, organized, knowledgeable, and trustworthy. I spoke with several other planners and compared them to Cody each time. None of them even came close to Cody's level of passion and experience.
    You will not regret your decision to hire Cody--we literally could not have done it without her!

    A review from someone that doesn't write reviews- must read

    We can't thank or recommend Cody enough, she was the brains and organization behind our wedding. After doing my research we called Cody to be our day-of coordinator, and we hit it off immediately. Her positive, supportive and bubbly personality made every step of planning that much more fun and relaxing. She went above and beyond prior to the wedding and handled everything for us on the day of the wedding, and it was the best decision we made! She also had amazing recommendations for things to include/vendors and was honest about items we didn't need. She is a straight shooter and we appreciated her honesty and transparency. One aspect of our wedding that made everything come together seamlessly was Cody's day of staff. If Cody tells you she needs a certain amount of staffing, trust her on this. It was worth every penny to have the extra assistants to help my husband, myself and all the guests. Everyone is still raving about how well the entire wedding was orchestrated. We even threw in a wrench with two ceremonies and Cody had everything planned down to the second. Her years of expertise and knowledge shown through at every second.

    The best of the best

    I wish I could give Cody a million stars. No review could ever do her justice. She’s the absolute best in the business, she came into our wedding a month before and took everything off of my hands and handled it as if she has been a part of our wedding for years. She learned the ins and outs of our wedding plans/hopes/expectations and helped create the best day of our lives. I truly could have never done it without her. She saw all the things that could’ve gone wrong (the things I would have never thought about) and made sure they never happened on our day. Her husband and team went far beyond our greatest expectations. She truly was my fairy godmother and provided the best service for our ceremony and reception. I cannot thank her enough!!!!

    The kindest soul

    Hiring Cody as our wedding planner was truly the best decision my husband and I made regarding our wedding day. We had a 150 person black tie wedding at a luxury venue and she created our vision perfectly! Not only is she extremely organized (makes you slideshow visuals of your design plan), keeps you on track, and has great relationships with vendors, she is truly the sweetest and kindest soul. She is your ally and wants what's best for you. She is team bride and groom and makes the whole wedding process seamless, while behind the scenes fighting tooth and nail for you everyday. She is always just a phone call away and never turns you away no matter the time of day. We had so many bumps in the road with our wedding planning (date changes, vendor changes, outside opinions, etc.) to the point I was at times in tears and Cody handled everything with so much empathy, grace, and love. She is amazing at her job and an amazing person. She cares just as much about your day as you do and it shows. I couldn't adore Cody more. She was my wedding planner, therapist, biggest supporter, and best friend through it all. I couldn't love her more. Do yourself the biggest favor and hire Cody as your wedding planner. You won't regret it! xoxo

    Cody is AMAZING. The BEST wedding planner!!

    Cody is an absolutely PHENOMENAL wedding planner!! If you are looking for a wedding planner, stop looking and hire her immediately. I could never recommend somebody more strongly than Cody. Cody was our full-time wedding planner and worked with us for over 1.5 years to plan our wedding in Charlottesville. She came highly recommended to me by one of my bridesmaids, who had used her as a wedding planner in Charlottesville a few years ago. As soon as a I talked to Cody on the phone for the first time, I knew she was the perfect wedding planner for us. She is dedicated, detail oriented, and extremely organized. She consistently went above and beyond throughout the entire process. She coordinated everything with our vendors and helped us negotiate fantastic prices to fit our budget. She was always accessible by email, text, and phone whenever I had any questions. I was very busy with work and was only able to give her a limited idea of what I wanted, but she was somehow able to capture exactly what I wanted perfectly. I remember sitting down with her during our design meeting and being so impressed with how all the design boards captured exactly what I wanted for my wedding. The wedding was an absolute dream and Cody helped the whole wedding day process run smoothly. It was bittersweet when the day ended because I realized we'd no longer have our weekly phone calls (which had become second nature after 1.5 years of wedding planning). Cody is absolutely phenomenal and I could not recommend her more!!!!!! Thank you so much for making my wedding perfect Cody!!

    Cody Smith Weddings, the best! ✨

    As a reference from my wedding photographer, Cody Smith Weddings is the absolute best! Cody is such a quality wedding planner!
    Cody always had my best interest at heart! I immediately realized that I could trust in Cody’s advice, whether it be with vendors or just my own design ideas. With Cody being excellent with communicating amongst vendors and myself, I did not ever have to deal with any issues during our wedding planning. Cody and I would speak once a week, those calls helped so much with every aspect of the wedding design plan. Cody also has such a creative vision, this vision made for such a unique design plan for my wedding. With Cody’s ideas, maracas were placed on the guests’ seats at the ceremony to celebrate Cinco de Mayo with us as we said our vows! Cody was ever present in creating a personalized online wedding document for us, helping us to keep up with all the details of our wedding. Cody also created a detailed wedding timeline for the wedding party and all of the vendors for our wedding day. Cody made sure that all of our wedding dreams would come true!

    The day of the wedding, it was evident just how much attention to detail that Cody had given to our special day. Everything was in place and perfect! The details and our venue, absolutely stunning!
    Cody made sure that my bridesmaids and I were well taken care of on my wedding day. She assigned Lillian as our bridal assistant. My wedding dress was a ball gown, Lillian carried my dress everywhere with me. I do not believe that my dress ever touched the ground on my wedding day. I also had a very elongated and detailed veil, Lillian made sure that my veil was always in place during our first look and wedding ceremony. Lillian even helped fix sewing detail with my bridesmaids dresses. Impressive! She was always asking if we needed anything or could help us in any way. She was the sweetest and so caring with us girls! By the end of the night, I absolutely adored her!
    Cody, our wedding was a fairytale and it was all because of you!
    I will miss my wedding planning with Cody, but I will miss her heart the most! 🤍

    Cody is the best!

    If you are planning a wedding, the first step is adding Cody to your team. We hired Cody for my daughter’s wedding, when we weren’t sure if we needed a planner. We did! Cody helped us find high-quality vendors who would work together well. Her planning left us with no questions and a flawlessly executed day. Everything was more beautiful than we could have hoped. I highly recommend Cody and am so so glad that we worked with her! Cody is a gem!

    Cody is amazing!

    We hired Cody for month of planning but what we got was so much more. Cody was on top of EVERYTHING and soooo organized! She answered all of my questions throughout the planning process and was so helpful with so many details that I would have forgotten about! She had check in calls with me often which were so helpful to make sure my day would be perfect (and it was). She was always so responsive with emails leading up to my wedding and also is so nice to work with.

    On my wedding day, I knew I could relax with my wedding party because I knew she had everything under control! She is someone that you can trust to do exactly what you talked about before the wedding day! During the wedding, she checked in with me to make sure I had whatever I needed - a drink, food, etc!

    My day honestly wouldn’t have been the same if Cody wasn’t our planner. Everyone needs a Cody to help with their wedding. We appreciate everything she did so much along with her assistance the day of! They were wonderful! They all made sure we had umbrellas over us when we weren’t taking photos since the weather wasn’t great and also put blankets around us! I could go on and on! I highly recommend Cody as a planner! So glad we chose to work with her for our wedding!

    Skilled, knowledgeable, professional, pleasant, organized, and more....

    I used to be involved in the wedding industry and had the privilege of working with Cody when I was younger (separate companies working the same events) When I got engaged years later, Cody was my first thought when reaching out to wedding planners. Cody and her team go above and beyond in all capacities, and they have done so for as long as I have known her. She is pleasant to interact with, is exceptionally organized and knowledgeable, and helped my wife and I to have a wedding that was better than I even thought possible. I had zero stress throughout this whole planning process, which is not typical for wedding planning or the event itself. Other than picking the right spouse, choosing Cody and her team is the best choice you can make in your entire wedding process!

    BOOK HER - you will regret if you don’t

    Cody is incredible. I honestly imagine what it would have been like without her. Her knowledge of the industry, vendors, and details for the wedding day were impressive. Our planning calls were full of laughs, details, and always productive. She feels more like a friend for life than a planner. We faced a tough loss a month before our wedding and she stepped right in to help make the wedding happen despite our need to take a break for personal reasons. She gave us space, assistance, and kept things moving, as well as care for us on a personal level. I appreciate Cody and would tell you it’s a mistake not to book her.

    Magical Wedding

    I highly recommend Cody! Our daughter and son-in-law had the wedding of their dreams, and Cody, our wedding planner, singlehandedly made it happen! She was unbelievable! She is well-respected by the vendors, negotiates great contracts, has creative suggestions, and is well connected. Cody is extremely seasoned and was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was always available and was kind and caring.
    She became a lifelong friend to my daughter and me. My daughter's wedding was magical--thanks to Cody! Partnering with Cody will be one of the best decisions a bride can make!

    1000% Would Recommend

    If Cody is available for your wedding RUN, don't walk, to get her on your wedding team!! Cody is the MVP. Through her energy, organization, prioritization, and her personal touch she was able to make all my wedding dreams a reality while also making the crazy job of planning a wedding much less stressful. She kept me on track with the activities to get done and clearly expressed which tasks were higher priorities. This really helped us not feel overwhelmed in all the planning. From the weekly calls, emails, and additional planning meetings, Cody made me feel like the only bride she was working with... I will say, I really miss our weekly calls! Through her experience and wisdom she helped guide us to select other amazing vendors, think through creative wedding touches, and develop a detailed wedding plan to make the process more seamless. By the time of the wedding weekend, I was extremely calm because I knew Cody had everything on lockdown. She worked 1/1 with each vendor to make sure they were prepared and gracefully handled any hiccups that popped up - she is the epitome of a can-do attitude. Cody will not just make your wedding absolutely amazing but will also make it better than the wedding you are dreaming of! I'm so grateful we found her, and even more grateful to now count Cody as a friend. I could go on and on describing how much she went above and beyond, but just know picking Cody will be the best decision you make for all your wedding plans (outside of picking your bride/groom)!

    The BEST wedding planner we could have asked for

    If you are trying to decide on a wedding planner, there is no need to look any further. HIRE CODY! From our very first phone call, I knew we would be in great hands. Cody is communicative, honest, transparent, patient, and incredibly detail-oriented (this is an understatement - she has a plan for absolutely every scenario). Cody has a contagious warmth and her passion for wedding planning is clear in all that she does. After our wedding night send-off, my husband and I got into the car and literally looked at each other and said "Cody is amazing."

    Cody will make you feel heard throughout the entire wedding planning process. This is SO important since planning can feel like a whirlwind at times. She has a delicate way of navigating varying preferences while also expressing her own advice/recommendations from years of industry experience.

    We LOVE Cody and couldn't be more grateful for her and all that she did to make our wedding perfect.
