Simply the BEST!!

CCS Events, specifically Colleen is the BEST wedding planner you can get in the RVA/DMV area! Don't think twice about it. She's calm, cool, collected, as excited for your wedding as you and SO incredibly helpful. She has a plan B, an answer, a recommendation for it all; knows everyone in the area, and made our wedding planning so easy. I am not an organized bride and despite this, she made everything come together SO PERFECTLY!! I don't know what we would've done without you; you're the dream wedding planner and friend! Everyone from our family, friends and other guests gushed over Colleen. We love you!! Thank you for making our wedding beautiful, fun, and unique!

The best in the biz!!

In addition to her 20+ years of wedding planning experience, Colleen will be your confidant, shoulder to laugh (or cry) on, your biggest cheerleader and will help you save money with other vendors. Book her from the very start (before you start planning) and you won't regret it. Our wedding day was so seamless and it was all thanks to her! She's the best of the best and I highly recommend her to other brides in the Richmond and Charlottesville area(s).

AMAZING Wedding Planner

CCS Events is AMAZING.

I was referred to Colleen by a family member who had used her. I had no idea how to plan a wedding, all I came to Colleen with was a million ideas in my head and a color palette I loved. From the venue, the flowers, the welcome drinks, the ceremony, the after party - she was there to help bring my vision to life. We had a few hiccups with vendors and she was able to rectify the issue within a few hours...her response time is IMPECCABLE. She has amazing working relationships with local vendors that helped create a seamless day.

I am forever thankful to Colleen & her team for making my vision and dreams come to life. Thanks to her it was the most PERFECT Day!
