    The Wedding Planner You Need

    I have struggled for months to come up with the words to adequately describe how important Fabienne was to making our wedding weekend as special as it was. The truth is, there is no way to put into words what Fabienne did for us. The joy we felt that weekend, the love, the peace…it was all due to Fabienne’s meticulous planning.

    I am as type A as they come. I did not want to spend the money on a wedding planner because I thought I could do it all myself. But after attending several weddings without a planner, I knew I needed to hire one. I knew after my first call with Fabienne that she was who I wanted to work with. Fabienne is direct, confident, and extremely experienced. She has planned and executed every kind of wedding - which meant our Venezuelan-Jewish wedding in the middle of the woods did not intimidate her in the least. She was so well-connected that she was able to secure every type of vendor we wanted. She was incredibly accessible - always responding to emails and texts. Our phone calls often lasted well over an hour because she is just so much fun to talk to. Fabienne was clear with what to expect, she was transparent about pricing, and always did everything she could to make my unconventional dream wedding happen. And what a dream it was! The night was absolutely perfect and I owe it all to Fabienne and her team! ❤️❤️

    Best Wedding ever! (Yours will be too!)

    Our wedding was 6/26/2022.

    Fabienne has a beautiful soul that makes it fun to do planing with. Her experience will help your wedding significantly and give you a peace of mind. I am a huge procrastinator, and I told this to her from the beginning, but she still had everything on time by being clear, up front, and urgent when needed. We needed someone with experience to guided us with our wedding that was at a venue where everything was our responsibility. And honestly, it was an easy and effortless experience that both of our families raves about to this day. This planning was during covid times and she always kept us up to date. I loved her lists! They kept me in check and if I had questions I just shot a text or had a meeting if needed.

    It rained on our wedding day and she quickly executed the rain plan so smoothly that guest did not know the difference! Our ceremony was outside, then reception under pavillion. She worked so well with all the other vendors. So much that 1 of my vendors said she was great and professional to work with that they asked her details to work with her again. She blended with our families and also lead beautifuly with all the vendors, but she transitioned between the two without any effort.

    And also, they do beautiful flowers! I am not big in flowers due to having allergies, but these arrangements were beautiful and did not irritate my allergies! I loved my boutique and evey day I look at my photos, I see the exact image I wanted when we discussed the options in planning. Plus, the plan included small items for the wedding thay we didn't have to buy.

    Almost 2 years later I still feel the bliss from my wedding day knowing our wedding went perfectly and there is nothing I would change at all! I am very late on my review, but this review is from 20 months straight of thinking back to our wedding day and having the greatest feeling of having the best wedding day ever.

    Top Notch Florist

    We hired Fabienne to create the florals for our intimate wedding of 11. From beginning to end, she had a "top notch" level of professionalism, care and attention. Fabienne was knowledgeable and went above-and-beyond to bring our vision to life. She made sure that every detail was absolutely perfect. The blooms were fresh and top quality.

    In fact, I loved the flowers so much I had them sent to be dried and pressed to be kept forever.

    Thank you so much Fabienne! You made our dreams come true and I felt absolutely stunning holding my fabulous bouquet.

    Dream team!!

    Fabienne and her team were AMAZING to work with. We had no idea what we were doing and Fabienne guided us through the whole process. I trust her 100% and recommend her to all of my friends. She was extremely professional and made our wedding day completely stress free. My husband and I are so thankful for everything she did for us, she truly made our wedding stress free and perfect. We love Fabienne and her team!!

    Fantastic!!

    Fabienne was such a valuable addition to our wedding team. As a planner, she coordinated with both us and our venue to make sure everything went smoothly on the day-of, and was wonderfully responsive, warm, and organized throughout the planning process. She also provided all of our florals, and they were absolutely stunning! We feel so lucky to have worked with Fabienne, and would absolutely recommend Wedding Muse to any future couples.

    Look no further

    She really helped me create a vision. She was very timely in responses and I felt like we were always on the same page. I did not have any specific flowers in mind, she picked out beautiful flowers and greenery that matched my white and silvery blue vibe. She is very knowledgeable and is willing to coordinate the flow of the wedding day and step up if there is any issue! Look no further you found your florist!

    “I would not change a thing.” Best decision we made!

    If you can, hire our wedding coordinator and florist, Fabienne Laveau, of Wedding Muse, Planning and Design + Florals! Fabienne and her team love what they do, it is so evident. When we were working with them, we felt we had their undivided attention. It seemed like our wedding was the only event they had on their calendar, they were so present with us. Our plans leading up to the wedding evolved, guided by Fabienne’s invaluable experience. She always acknowledged our communications immediately and answered all of our questions in a very timely manner, given her very demanding schedule.
    The actual day of the ceremony Fabienne and her team, Esther, Sean, Nicole and Whitney, just made everything happen! It was a simple as that, from the wedding ceremony, which took place in the early afternoon, to the reception in the evening. The entire day went without a hitch for all of us involved. We had a wonderful time, not a care in the world! Thank you so much Fabienne, Esther, Sean, Nicole and Whitney!
    As the Mother of the Bride, I have relived and retold many stories about our daughter’s marriage. It was one of the happiest weekends of our lives. The wedding ceremony was held at Dahlgren Chapel, on Georgetown Campus, and the reception was at Sequoia DC in November 2021. At the end of each retelling I close with, “I would not change a thing.” I must give credit where credit is due.

    Perfect Flowers for a Perfect Day

    We hired Fabienne (Wedding Muse) as our florist for our wedding, and we couldn't be more happy with our decision. Fabienne was an expert consultant from the very beginning, providing us with helpful advice and honest opinions. She really worked hard to create a package that perfectly fit our floral needs. The flowers were delivered to our venue (The Market at Grelen) on time, and they were gorgeous and smelled amazing! We could see Fabienne's talented touch in every arrangement, bouquet, and in the flower crown. She always responded quickly to emails or was happy to talk over the phone. Our flowers were so beautiful, we had to take them home, and we've just been marveling over all of the lovely flowers from our wedding that now adorn our home for the past week. We highly recommend Fabienne; she was a joy to work with.

    Fabienne is AMAZING!!!!!

    I had a small flower budget and had little to no idea what I wanted. I sent Fabienne ONE pinterest photo of a bridal bouquet that I loved and that was it. She literally crafted the most INCREDIBLE floral display I have ever seen. There was a wedding tour going on at the venue while they were setting up, and they said they had to have the florists name.
    Not only is she soo amazingly talented, her proactive communication went above and beyond. Getting married in the time of COVID is odd, but Fabienne emailed me regularly to check in, see how I was doing, ask how my dogs were (so she got an A+, obvi).

    If my venue hadn't included a wedding coordinator, I would have asked Fabienne and team to help with EVERYTHING!

    Just great

    If you are looking for a wedding coordinator and florist, look no further. Fabienne and her team were simply the best. I was supposed to get married in April 2020, but due to COVID-19 had to postpone. After uninviting a significant number of guests, I downsized my wedding to 62 people on November 21. A week before the wedding, the governor of Virginia issued new regulations prohibiting gatherings of more the 25 people. Fabienne was with me in every one of these changes, guiding me and supporting me. I did get married on November 21, and Fabienne did a PHENOMENAL job with the flowers and the coordination. In the midst of all of these issues, Fabienne made my dream come true. Hiring her was the best decision of all my wedding planning. Thanks so much, Fabienne. We owe you so much.

    Fantastic Coordination and Flowers!!

    Planning a wedding during COVID sure wasn’t easy, especially when you had to change the venue (site unseen), cut the guest list, and work with the vendors on a new location. Cue Fabienne. She was everything I could have asked for in a planner and more. She knew the venue so well, she was incredibly communicative and responsive, and she worked with the other vendors well. The day of, there were some minor setbacks, but Fabienne did a fantastic job making sure we got back on schedule and resolving the situations. I was able to fully enjoy my day. Not to mention the flowers were beautiful. She did such an incredible job, and I highly recommend her services!!

    Extremely Helpful and Responsive

    Fabienne was extremely helpful and responsive from the day that we booked with her. Even though we just booked for day of services she sent us emails to check up on our wedding planning process and to see in we needed help navigating wedding planning in a COVID world. It was so nice having someone check in to make sure we were doing alright with the wedding planning. Fabienne and Sarah made sure things ran smoothly and safely during our rehearsal and wedding. We're so thankful for their help, I new I could trust them to run everything and we could enjoy our wedding.

    Expert coordinator & inspired florist

    BLUF: Fabienne is an industry pro, a fierce advocate, a talented creative, and a kind person with integrity. Hire her and rest assured that you made an excellent choice.

    Fabienne was everything we wanted and everything we had no idea that we needed. In a setting where COVID-19 changed many aspects of our wedding plans and her own workflow, Fabienne remained a constant, assuring presence. She made us feel like no detail was too small to be addressed and no question was irrelevant. Even with her having to reschedule many of her clients due to the pandemic, we never felt lost in the mix.

    The wedding industry can be also overwhelming and opaque sometimes. Fabienne asked us questions about how we imagined our ideal wedding day and then helped us keep focus – and out of the rabbit holes of Instagram and Pinterest. Her network of other wedding professionals is extensive, and we took advantage. She also suggested helpful ways for us to save money and guided us as we tried to understand our wedding contracts.

    Even though we postponed our larger celebration until 2021, Fabienne advised us on our micro-wedding and provided vibrant, luscious florals that elevated the whole setting. Her arbor adorned with florals made a gorgeous focal point for the ceremony. With the flowers she selected for my hair and bridal bouquet, I literally could not imagine feeling more beautiful.

    We had a magical wedding day with our families and are looking forward to revisiting those memories for years to come. Fabienne worked tirelessly to make that vision a reality and she will always be in our fond memories, too. THANK YOU, Fabienne, to you and your team! We can’t wait to see you next year.

    The Perfect Wedding!!

    We can't thank you enough for all your hard work for our wedding. You were always so professional and you continued to bring fresh ideas. Thank you for keeping us sane and at ease on one of the biggest and important days! You played a key role by taking care of all the details that allowed us to fully enjoy the day and not worry about a thing. I loved how you were my advisor throughout the wedding planning process and I appreciated having you to consult for guidance and feedback during a stressful time – it was definitely less stressful with your help and expertise!

    Our wedding day turned out better than expected with COVID-19 and we had the most wonderful memories with our family and friends thanks to your help and outstanding attention to detail.

    Fabienne the Great!

    What can I say? We were so blessed to have an amazing group of vendors, Fabienne being one of them. I can't begin to tell you how off the ledge I was when I first reached out to talk to Fabienne, who calmly talked me back on. I had soooo many staff turnover issues at the hotel and I was freaking out, I was convinced the day would be a disaster. My husband and I finally agreed to get a planner (more for my sanity) I talked to so many that I just didn't connect with on the level that I did with Fabienne. She heard me, I mean really heard me, talked me through all of my concerns and assured me she would be there for US on the BIG day. My husband wanted me to do whatever gave me piece of mind on the day of and for me that was hiring Fabienne - best decision I made. I knew the moment I talked to her that I found my planner! She is responsive, punctual, diligent, smart, assertive where she needs to be (we were in my hotel staff's "house"), but most importantly she was there for us. She went through every single detail with me and went through things I never even considered. You know we've never done this before. She had our best interest at heart and that was her main focus. Everything I asked her to do, everything I was panicking about - she took care of. I couldn't have made it through the day without you, Fabienne! Thank you so much for everything you and your assistant did to make sure we had a worry free day - any bride to be knows is priceless.

    Fabienne was a lifesaver - working with her was the best decision we made

    We cannot say enough about how wonderful Fabienne is. Our wedding process has been a rollercoaster, and we ultimately had to cancel our wedding twice due to COVID, but Fabienne was there from day 1 holding our hand through the whole process. Even before COVID, she helped us navigate and negotiate with a difficult vendor and provided incredibly valuable advice and recommendations as we planned our wedding in a very short (3 month) time frame. She was familiar with our venue and the local vendors, which was very helpful. Once COVID hit she was incredibly responsive and compassionate. Every time we felt we hit a roadblock she came in, eased our stress, and led us forward. She is both a good person and a great wedding planner. Ultimately we had to cancel our wedding and will be getting married in a small backyard ceremony, but we are so grateful our first planning decision was to hire Fabienne.

    Outstanding - nailed the look for my fall wedding!

    Fabienne was outstanding to work with from start to finish. I immediately appreciated her responsiveness to our accelerated timeline and multiple methods of communication (phone, email, Pinterest). I was blown away by how spot on she was to the look we were going for: from the bouquets to the big arrangements to the greenery lining the fireplace. She was willing to work with our budget and pulled together a fantastic vision. We didn't meet until the day of the wedding which required me to let go a bit, but WOW was it worth it!

    Fabienne is just fabulous!!!

    Crossing paths with Fabienne was one of the best things that could have happened to us during our wedding planning process. I wanted to plan my own wedding but needed assistance on the day of our wedding to ensure that everything ran smooth and because I didn’t want a family member or my Mom to feel they had to take charge and oversee everything; I wanted my guests to enjoy themselves. I hired Fabienne for her, day of coordination services. I had spoken to a few planners before her and I Felt as if I didn’t, “click” with them like I did Fabienne. She seemed like a pro- Fabienne was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and made me feel right at ease just after our first phone call. She touched base with me frequently, reviewed all contracts (never thought of that- what a lifesaver) and she was beyond helpful. I felt fully confident in Fabienne and on our wedding day her 2 team members Esmé and Krystin were phenomenal! Upon arrival they greeted me in the bridal suite and introduced themselves and were so sweet! I always hear about malfunctions at weddings but our day was like a fairytale- everything was right on time and Krystin and Esmé were one step ahead of everything- I could not believe how much they helped. I could not have imagined my day without Fabienne and Muse weddings. This was one of our best investments for our wedding and I cannot thank this team enough for making my wedding day magical!!! :)

    Very pleased with the Wedding Muse

    My daughter hired as a “day of” planner for her wedding in June 2019. I wasn’t sure what to expect but I was pleasantly surprised with their service! Fabienne was great explaining everything and making sure the ceremony would go off without a hitch and Katelyn was amazing during the reception. She managed the cake, the food, the flow of events and the gifts...even carrying them to my car after I had gone to bed! They were super!

    Wonderful Florist

    Fabienne was wonderful at our wedding. When my then soon to be wife spoke with her for the first time over the phone, she received the kind of vibe that later showed in the wedding day through the beautiful display of decorative flowers. Our approach was to to give all the power to Fabienne and for her to use her creative imagination on the day of our wedding. This is hard for most couple to give total control over to someone else, but that was the trust that my wife had when she spoke with Fabienne. All she told Fabienne was her colors for the wedding and Fabienne was able to create a master piece from Bouquets, Corsages, to the Boutonnieres, and table decorations. She was professional at her work, flexible, and available whenever we had questions. Best Florist ever!!!

    Thank you Fabienne for making our dream wedding so beautiful in colors!! We could not tell you how many complements we've received from families, friends, and acquaintances about how beautiful the decorations and flowers turned out.

    You cannot go wrong with Wedding Muse!

    Fabienne is the best! She went above our expectations! We opted for her wedding Wrap Up package (8 weeks prior to wedding day). She gave us an itemized list that was categorized in chronological order that was super invaluable as we went about planning for our wedding. Before the 8 weeks prior, she made herself available several times to provide guidance to us as we went about hiring vendors, renting items, handling various considerations, etc. There were things about the wedding planning process that we didn't even consider and she would shed light on it! Her communication was awesome!! She was always a joy to speak with and when we hit stressful situations, she led us through it! She was very knowledgeable about our venue. That knowledge and her thorough experience with wedding planning made our day super enjoyable! We miss working with Fabienne! I would recommend her to anyone!
