    An amazing partner throughout the wedding planning process!

    Wedding planning can be a stressful and complicated time- but having Diane by my side made things a LOT more enjoyable. From the moment we met to until the end of my reception, Diane was constantly available to answer all my questions and fend off stressors. Her knowledge of the wedding industry and eye for detail made our wedding day the best day ever. Highly recommend!

    Truly a Lifesaver

    When my husband and I first got engaged we were both students with jobs, and during covid we had no idea where to start with planning. Neither of us are from the area so Diane's vendor referrals were wonderful.

    Over the top service

    Diane and her were amazing!! She was with me every step of the way. I couldn’t have asked for better service. In my opinion it is a must to have a wedding planner and Covenant Weddings is the way to go. Thank you so much.

    The Best Decision Ever for our Black Tie pandemic wedding!

    We can say so much about Ms. Diane. For starters she’s reliable, resourceful & professional. She’s very experienced and knowledgeable. Along the way, she taught us wedding etiquette and how to save money when it came to our vendors. We called her almost everyday with questions and concerns and she delivered. Our original wedding date was May 15, 2020. Unfortunately due to the pandemic, our wedding plans were derailed so we had to post-pone until May 15, 2021. She remained professional and supportive through the whole process. We couldn’t thank her enough for the job well done. Even her team was awesome and professional. She is worth every penny and we plan to use her services again for other events. We highly recommend her 🖤

    If you think you can’t afford a wedding planner or day of coordinator, think again! You can! And you should hire Diane George of Covenant Weddings. They are simply the best! We had no plans to hire a planner or coordinator, but after recognizing the overwhelming task of helping my daughter plan her wedding, we contacted her. She had coordinated a fabulous wedding we attended earlier last year, so she came with a super referral. In our first conversation before we agreed to sign up with her she listened to my woes, provided sound counsel, asked pertinent questions, and showed a sense of humor that let me know that it was all going to be alright. Only after I asked, did she mention her wedding packages and we signed up for the day-of-coordination. I found her rates to be far more reasonable than others I had researched and her payment plan very flexible. Honestly, I felt that after our first conversation I had already received my money’s worth. Although she was supposed to be the DOC, she was available to us throughout the entire planning process, helping us to stay on course. With her expert planning and timeline, the wedding day went off without a hitch. She coordinated with all vendors to be in place on the big day and all vendors reported to her and contacted her with any issues. She and her staff are like a stealth SWAT team. For the most part, we didn’t really see much of them during the day, but everything seemed to flow like seamlessly and effortlessly! To be sure, they were easily accessible by phone and made sure to check in as needed. My daughter, the bride, said at the end of the day, that she hadn’t really seen much of Diane and her crew during the day and I replied, that’s because they were like guardian angels protecting us from all the hassles and woes of the day and just making sure that the day was magical! I highly recommend Diane George and Covenant Weddings and would use them again in a heartbeat.

    What can I say? Diane and the team at Covenant Weddings and Occasions are THE BEST!

    My wedding day was perfect, and I didn't have a care in the world on the day (Sept. 16, 2016).

    Even as someone in the wedding industry, initially, I was overwhelmed with ideas, decisions, vendor isssues, and money. Jackie was my voice of reason and kept me calm, always saying "we got you". While Diane knew how to orchestrate and make the plan work to perfection. These two ladies worked late hours and made themselves available whenever I needed them.
    I can't tell you how reassuring it was on the day to know they were in charge. My family and bridesmaids kept asking what they needed to do, and my response was "nothing CWO will take care of it"....and they did! Wedding day assistant Ciara, was awesome. I would see her out of the corner of my eye moving around ensuring everything was in order, and even acting as the heavy when she had to.
    It brings tears to my eyes to think of all that they did for me and my husband on our wedding day.
    Here's my interpretation of who Covenant Weddings and Occasions were to me during my wedding process:

    God sent his angels when it was time, he sent his angels to adorn and make beautiful my path of a straight line, they organized the room and the others who played a part, and prepared the way for me to walk to the man HE sent to care for me and my heart.

    So blessed and thankful for Covenant Weddings and Occasions
    Newlywed,
    Mrs. F

    I had the pleasure of working with Diane George of Covenant Weddings while planning my June 2015 wedding. I was a very do-it-yourself bride and a bride on a budget, but knew early on that I wanted, rather needed, at least a Day of Coordinator and Covenant Weddings delivered. Diane George went above and beyond my expectations. Most of the other coordinators started 3 months prior to the wedding to coordinate with vendors, schedule and run rehearsal and then show up the day of the wedding, but not Diane. She was there with us every step of the way. She created a schedule of all the tasks that needed to be done for each month. This schedule kept me on track and kept me from feeling overwhelmed with trying to figure out what needed to be done or whether I had missed something important. Diane also created a budget breakdown for us based off of the budget we gave her and also offered ideas to help keep cost within our budget and she was always available to answer any questions I had. I also noticed that my venue was more accommodating after I brought in Diane. Stuff they had flat out told us no on, when Diane asked they were more flexible and willing to consider. She asked all the right question and not only reassuring to us but also to my vendors. Shortly after deciding on a Covenant Weddings, my husband and I realized that having Covenant Weddings and Diane, was one of the best purchases we could have made for our wedding! She is great at what she does and is very personable. Having the Covenant Weddings team assured me that no matter what happened the day of my wedding Diane would be able to handle it. Thank you Diane and Covenant Weddings for helping make my wedding planning process pleasurable and for helping to make my wedding day incredible!

    Diane was always around for me to ask questions, bounce ideas off of, etc. She suggested vendors, I chose them and they pampered me to no end. If there were any wedding day mishaps, I didn't know about them. She and her team swooped in, took over and I was the most beautiful, pampered queen for my wedding day! Although she won't be working with me anymore as a wedding planner (unless my daughter gets married) I have found a friend for life! I Love Diane and you will NOT go wrong with her services! She is a blessing in disguise. I thank God that I chose her services for my life's most personal blessed event!

    Diane is perfection personified. The goal for our wedding day was simple - find someone that we could entrust for the flawless execution of every detail of what was one of the most important days of our lives. And Diane did just that - actually, she did so much more than that. From wedding day suggestions and etiquette, to vendor coordination, to the rehearsal, to wedding day execution, Diane was on it. No detail was left unattended. Even now, we are unable to tell whether there was any problem whatsoever on the wedding day - if there was a catastrophe brewing, we didnt know it, because Diane handled it. We could spend our time focusing, not on vendors, but on each other, which is the actual point of the wedding day. In addition, as we look back on the year-long planning for the actual wedding day, we can say that the process of planning was fun. Diane made the process fun, taking us step by step to ensure that we were always on target to meet the necessary deadlines, so we were not worn out at the end of it all. Diane is wonderful, and brides and grooms should consider themselves lucky if they have the opportunity to work with her.

    Perfect Wedding Planner

    As the bride without a clue what I wanted, Covenant Weddings was exactly what I needed. Mrs. George and her staff were full of ideas and experience to guide us to a beautiful wedding. Communication with Mrs, George and her staff was honest, professional and as often as we needed. No detail was overlooked or went unanswered. She and her staff are the reason wedding planners are needed creating wonderful wedding experiences.

    The best wedding planner around!

    Let me tell you something…if you don’t hire Diane and her team, you’d be making a huge mistake!!! Diane was an excellent planner and has an invaluable wealth of knowledge about the entire wedding industry as a whole. Diane was also always readily available for my husband and I throughout the entire wedding planning process. No detail was overlooked and no question was too small. Diane also referred us to many top notch vendors and did everything in her power to ensure that our vision was brought to life flawlessly and beautifully. Diane is also just an all around great person, is so supportive, and we are honored to be able to call her a lifelong friend moving forward.

    Wonderful Experience

    Would absolutely recommend Covenant Weddings! Diane runs the shop and was very knowledgeable about weddings in general. From vendor recommendations to wedding advice/etiquette information, Diane always had an answer or suggestion. Her deep experience allowed us to trust her with our vision and it paid off in the end. :) Diane and her team ensured the day ran smoothly and were extremely professional (even keeping everyone on point during rehearsals!).

    Early on, she helped us map out a budget and planning schedule which helped highlight things we would've never thought of. She also had a number of handy "things to purchase/bring" lists that helped ensure nothing was forgotten.

    Moreover, we had an interfaith wedding (Christian and Jewish) and Diane was still able to help make our day magical while being considerate of how we wanted to interweave both faiths.

    Have to reemphasize, Diane's vendor recommendations--all were stellar and we ended up using most. All were professional/reasonably priced and seemed to have a great relationship with Diane which worked really well for the outcome of the wedding. Overall, couldn't have asked for a better wedding planner :).

    Amazing Planners and Coordinators

    Our New Year's Day Wedding was a hit, thanks to the team at Covenant Weddings. My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Janice & Chantel for our wedding. We paid for the day-of coordination package, but the team went above and beyond! Janice and Chantel helped me to stay organized during this process, and they truly made the planning experience unique and unforegettable. Their team also did a great day at our wedding. Our guests felt like they were in a movie. I love that this company is flexible on modern wedding trends and always honest. They executed the modern wedding vision that I had beautifully. I highly recommend this company. I also referred them out to my friends who are currently planning their upcoming nuptials.

    Diane’s execution on our wedding day was flawless! She was there with us throughout the entire planning process and helped make our day run smoothly. We can’t say one thing that was out of place and we heavily contribute that to Diane’s expertise. We highly recommend her to any bride and groom!

    A Dream Wedding

    Diane George and the Covenant Weddings team are amazing. As the Father of the Bride, I was determined to find someone who could make my daughter’s dream of a flawless and magical wedding day come true. Covenant Weddings not only made our dream come true but they exceeded our expectations. Their attention to detail, large and small, was evident throughout the planning process. Diane's referrals for wedding vendors (photographer, florist, videographer, DJ, caterer, etc) were excellent. They were all very professional and pleasant to work with. One of our most favorable impressions of Diane and the Covenant team was their professionalism on the day of the wedding. An outdoor ceremony was planned but the weather did not cooperate. When the rain came, Diane and her team flawlessly executed a Plan B that was equally pleasing. The Covenant team was calm, deliberate, reassuring and in total control of the moment. Families on both sides continue to tell us how much they enjoyed the entire wedding experience and thanks to Diane and the Covenant team, it will be a day we will cherish forever.

    Excellent Wedding Consultant

    Diane was a wonderful wedding consultant! I had to postpone my wedding from 2020 to 2021 and she worked with me to shrink and re-conceptualize it due to the pandemic. She also helped me manage my relatives by sharing her expertise around what was reasonable and current wedding trends. She patiently listened to my wedding stress laments and helped find solutions for problems I encountered. She has rosters of vendors that she has worked with and I picked many based on her recommendations. They did not disappoint. Everyone did their job beautifully. Diane helped me pull off a flawless wedding day!

    Elena & Marty November 2019

    Dear Diane George,

    Even though our wedding was many months ago, people are still telling me what a fantastic time they had! My husband and I can’t thank you enough for all of your hard work in helping us plan and coordinate our wedding. Your checklists and timelines made sure every detail was addressed (and made my parents very happy to see that we were staying on schedule  ). With my parents living so far away, I personally was so grateful that you always made time to answer all of my crazy questions, provide sage advice, and refer me to professionals and businesses that did an outstanding job. Thank you for going with us to all the meetings, tastings and walk throughs and for reviewing our save the dates, invitations, and programs. Your expert eye made sure we made excellent decisions that set the tone for an elegant, fun and heartfelt wedding and reception. During the rehearsal, it was so reassuring to have you there to provide specific instructions about every detail of the ceremony and reception.
    On the day of the wedding, you and your staff coordinated the millions of moving pieces to make sure my wedding day was one I will never forget. You and your staff gave my husband and me a priceless gift. We were able to live in the present and thoroughly enjoy our day without having to worry about details and timelines. Even the day after the wedding, you still made time to answer my questions and help me with concerns. We can’t thank you enough and wish you all the best from the bottom of our hearts.

    Incredible

    If i could use one word to describe them I would say INCREDIBLE. They handled our day with love with care with precision and joy. They treated our Big Day like there own. We had a difficult time with our venue and they were right there to handle the situation and smooth any roadblocks or wrinkles so we could have the day that we wanted. They worked with us throughout the entire process offering suggestions for concerns logistical hiccups, suggesting amazing vendors from an extended list of contacts and partners at a variety of price points and then beautifully placing every little detail for the reception just how we imagined if not better. I could not have seen my vision come to life without Janice and Chantel and I would tell anyone who asks that they need them as well. They will just make your day amazing. Thank you so much Chantel Janice and CWO.

    Great Experience

    I had a great experience. The ladies were very organized and kept my husband and I on track. They came to all the necessary appointments. I felt like they were invested in my wedding being a success, and because of them it was. I would highly recommend these great ladies.
