Hannah Sent on 12/04/2023A dream come true
Marylee and her team are the real deal. It was clear from the very first conversation that they knew exactly the vision we were hoping to achieve and they did everything to not only meet that vision, but exceed it. While we didn’t contact her at the very beginning of our planning endeavors, she took all of the tasks, question marks, and complications off of our plate. We felt so heard and seen the entire time, even outside of wedding related topics. Marylee was compassionate and so kind when I was going through personal things, and it meant the absolute world to me.
Her response time was so prompt, even amongst the busiest point in wedding season. She made sure to address every last detail thoroughly during our meetings and recaps. It was my first time being a bride and I can’t imagine it having gone any more smoothly. I can’t tell you how amazing it was to have a planning team that not only delivered a wedding of our dreams, but also advocated for us every step of the way. And as many couples in the planning process learn quickly, the costs add up. Marylee made a point of giving us tips and tricks to save in ways; this was so helpful…like seriously. I could tell that other planners I had talked to prior to booking with Marylee wouldn’t have extended the same grace, which was another reason we knew Marylee was it. Her services are very affordable.
When it came to our wedding day, her whole team was absolutely phenomenal. A few hours before the ceremony began, I got hit with nerves and a mental breakdown that I’m sure made me hard to work with. They helped me to settle these nerves, to breathe and I knew that they would have everything under control (and they did). Wanted to also recognize Katie and Chloe from her team. They were incredible as well; super professional and a dream to work with.
Lastly, wanted to mention that you should ABSOLUTELY use Marylee for florals. She went above and beyond and made the flowers absolutely breathtaking. I don’t think I appreciated how fabulous they can be until our big day. She absolutely nailed the vision from the inspiration I had shared.
Needless to say, Marylee and her team is the epitome of top notch wedding planning. I wish I could hire her to assist me with everything in life (hah). A dream come true and truly cannot recommend her more! -

Angela Sent on 03/16/2025The BEST wedding coordinator EVER!!!!
I cannot express enough how incredible Marylee is as a wedding coordinator! She truly went above and beyond for my daughter’s wedding, and I’m so thankful for her flawless execution. From the moment we started planning, Marylee made sure every detail was covered and nothing was overlooked. On the big day, she was there checking on us multiple times, ensuring everything was running smoothly and putting our minds at ease.
Marylee has been a longtime personal friend of mine, as well as an industry professional I trust deeply. We’ve worked together many times, but this day was especially important to me. Watching her seamlessly bring everything together and keep everything on track was such a gift. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better person to help make my daughter’s wedding day so perfect.
Marylee, you were truly incredible, and we cannot thank you enough for everything you did for us. Ayla and I love you so much! xoxo

Treva Sent on 01/30/2025Marylee is the BEST decision you can make for your wedding!
I cannot recommend Marylee and her team enough! I booked Marylee for day of coordination services, and she went above and beyond my expectations. Marylee was quick to answer my thousands of questions throughout the entire planning process. She gave me honest recommendations for vendors, input on decor (and even provides certain decor rentals), and in many cases helped initiate or completely handle communications with my other wedding vendors. She also did all my florals and they were GORGEOUS. The minute we were delivered my bouquet, one of my bridesmaids immediately said they've never seen a more perfect "Treva" bouquet. She nailed it on my vision!
Rachel from Marylee's team did my day-of coordination, and I need to give an extra special shout out to her! Like Marylee, she was quick to answer all my questions in the weeks leading up to my wedding and was incredibly organized in helping fine tune all the nitty gritty details of the day's schedule. There were a couple small fires the day of that I didn't even know about until after my wedding, which I believe is the number one sign you've hired the right coordinator! If Rachel is any indication of the rest of Marylee's team, you will be in great hands with any of her planners/coordinators. -

Amanda Sent on 11/27/2024Must Hire Marylee
Marylee is a joy to work with and I’ve been blessed to have known her for over 10 years. From the very beginning, she has been available for brainstorming, questions, etc. She is always professional and responsive. Her attention to detail, southern hospitality, and passion for the industry are unmatched. We love Marylee and will always recommend her! -

Carly Sent on 11/26/2024Thank you so much to Chloe!
We hired Marylee about a month before our wedding for day of coordinator and honestly, I wish we had hired her sooner! Her lead planner, Chloe was our day of coordinator and was incredible. She was constantly checking in with me and my husband and my parents throughout the night to see if we needed anything! My husband and I also did not need to lift a finger at all our entire day. Thanks to Chloe, our day was absolutely perfect. Thank you so much Marylee and Chloe! -

Alyssa Sent on 09/17/2024Amazing overall experience and expertise.
As a control person it was difficult as the MOB to not try to manage everything. I did not have to! Best event, well planned, great listening skills to ensure that my daughter's day was "the best day of her life". The flowers, done by Marylee, were exquisite . The decor placed and timeline efficient. They really did make our dreams come true. -

Marylee and her team are nothing short of amazing. From the little tiny details to the overall feel/vibe of the event, she's got it down. Marylee is organized, punctual, and the perfect balance of professional and warm. We are so thankful for Marylee and her team for bringing our visions to life and allowing us to relax and enjoy our day. -

Sarah Sent on 07/03/2024Excellence in every way!
I couldn’t be happier with our experience with Marylee Marmer Events for our wedding floral needs. Everything really exceeded our expectations. Marylee was always super responsive. The execution of the arbor garland was amazing. She created it onsite the day of the wedding in 98 degree heat. It looks exactly like the Pinterest inspiration we shared with her. All the flowers were fresh and beautiful. The tall arrangements for our centerpieces were spectacular. I have always told everyone I can to use Marylee. Her pricing beat out several other recommended florists and I think her work was truly beautiful. -

Absolutely loved everything!
Marylee did the florals for our October wedding and absolutely killed it! Throughout the whole process she was so incredibly helpful. She offered her guidance and expertise when we needed help deciding what florals and greenery fit our vision as well as the weather and other outside factors. She was willing to work with our budget and we were able to make our florals to their fullest extent. We cannot recommend Marylee enough! -

Marylee and her team were amazing! She created gorgeous florals and also connected us with our photographer and dj - who each blew it out of the park! Hiring a team that works so well together made our experience seamless. -

Emma Sent on 08/22/2023Just the best
Working with Marylee and her team, namely Rachel, was one of the best decisions we made in the months leading up to our wedding. Rachel was our lead planner, and in the weeks prior and day of, not a single stone was left unturned related to the minute details that made every ounce of planning come together flawlessly.
Speaking of the day of, the anxiety of all the logistics, details, vendor management, etc. was WIPED away as Rachel handled absolutely everything with the utmost professionalism. Not ONE thing was put on our plate so that we could focus on our families, friends, and actually enjoying everything come together.
Both Rachel as our lead planner and Marylee as a liaison throughout our engagement were so responsive, flexible, and helpful in offering creative solutions where we came up short.
We cannot express enough how grateful we are for this team and how much we recommend working with the Marylee Marmer Events staff! -

Incredible from start to finish!
Where do I even begin?! Marylee is not only an amazing wedding planner but also an incredible florist! She was an easy choice as our wedding planner, as she was a preferred vendor at Lewis Ginter Botanical Gardens, where we got married, but choosing to work with her was the best decision we made for our wedding! From the beginning, we always knew we were in great hands. Marylee is so experienced and professional, but also an incredible person-- she is so genuine and is always looking out for her couples!
My husband and I are living abroad, but Marylee was always so flexible with her time and was always so responsive with answering all of our questions -- we don't know how she does it! So if you're looking for someone who truly does it all-- look no further. Marylee helped us manage all of our vendors and contracts, have several meetings with us, was able to help us with rentals, did ALL of our gorgeous florals, and was so attentive and organized on the wedding day. We can't thank her enough! -

Marylee was amazing to work with! We used her for our florals, I have her two photos for inspiration and gave her creative control and BOY DID SHE DELIVER!! They were stunning, I could not have envisioned anything more perfect. I would absolutely recommend her. -

Marylee and her team are the absolute best in the business! We are forever grateful to Marylee for helping make our wedding vision come to life. She is so kind, organized, professional and supportive. She reassured us whenever we worried, she kept us organized when there were hundreds of details to consider, and she reduced our stress tremendously (honestly, my cousin commented I was the calmest bride she had ever seen!). We will recommend her over and over to any couple planning a wedding. -

Shelby Sent on 05/25/2023Best decision we ever made!!
Where do I even begin?! Marylee is not only an amazing wedding planner and florist but such a dear dear friend to me and my now husband! I couldn't imagine our day without her support, encouragement and dedication in making our day everything we could have ever dreamed of! As another wedding planner in the industry, I didn't trust our day with anyone else! Marylee, thank you for all that you did for us - words simply can't cover the amount of gratitude that we have for you! -

Best Experience with MME
We had the BEST experience with Brickhouse RVA for our recent wedding of about 50 people. The package that they offer is great! We can’t say enough good things about Marylee and how amazing she was throughout the whole process. We felt supported the whole time and she made sure that everything ran smoothly along with her business partner Andy on the day of. Marylee did such a great job and went above and beyond to make sure we weren’t stressed about anything. Marylee did a beautiful job setting everything up and the florals were gorgeous. I highly recommend Brickhouse RVA and Marylee Marmer Events for your next event. They made our day so special! -

Absolutely wonderful!
Marylee was amazing to work with. She is extremely personable and made us feel so special and excited about our wedding. She helped us stay organized & I completely trusted her to handle the vendor communication leading up to the event & all the tiny details the day of. Her rentals were wonderful & helped us save money. She really helped make our wedding everything we envisioned! -

Where Do I Begin
Hiring Marylee was far and above the best decision we made for our wedding. We started with her day of coordinator package and bumped it up to one of her planner packages once we saw just how much work and time goes in to planning a wedding. She made everything feel manageable, organized, and fun from the very beginning. She took the time to understand our vision for the day and executed it flawlessly. She also did our florals and decor and they were just stunning, so far and above what we had imagined. Not only are she and her team so talented (special shout out to Tanya for helping the day run so smoothly), Marylee is genuinely one of the kindest people I have ever met. She has such an amazing attitude and brightens up your day whenever you talk to her. I am so thrilled we decided to use her for our wedding. Everyone always says something will go wrong on your wedding day and you’ll just have to roll with it, but I can say without any hesitation that was not our experience and I owe it to her. -

Laken Sent on 12/19/2022Amazing all in one wedding planner!
We hired Marylee to help plan and coordinate our wedding for November 2022. But as a bonus she was also our florist and provided a ton of decor items! She saved us so much time and money by being able to provide all these services with her team! Marylee was very responsive anytime we needed her help, she was very professional and had everything prepared and questions ready during our walk through. We wouldn't have been able to do it without her! She helped us through some vendor difficulties and had our back at all times! The day of the wedding she helped me feel less stressed and assured me through out the day that everything was going great! She communicated with all our vendors and the day went by smoothly. Marylee and her team did a great job and I would recommend them to anybody in need of planning services!
