I hired Michele Palmer to be my day-off wedding coordinator for my 220-person wedding, and I could not be more pleased with the services that Michele and her colleague, Debby, provided! FANTASTIC!!! The wedding day-off coordination service is more that just the "day-of" - Michele came out to the venue and went over details with me a month prior to the wedding; she and Debby ran the rehearsal dinner (and patiently waited for our tardy wedding party), and Michele was quick to answer any questions I had and give me advice in the months leading up to our wedding. During the actual wedding day, Michele and Debby made sure everything went smoothly and I didn't have to worry about a thing. Michele was also instrumental in providing me with great advice regarding asking my rental company for an early tent delivery - since it was expected to rain all week prior to our wedding. This ensured that the grass under the tent was relatively dry for our wedding day. Overall, I am soo extremely happy with the services. I searched around for wedding coordinators via Wedding Wire and Thumbtack, and after comparing the prices/services, Michele's company far exceeded everyone else in terms of value. I would 100% recommend Michele and her company to any future bride. Trust me, you need the help!!!

“Michele was a life saver! Her cool head with last minute changes and unexpected bumps in the road kept me out of a strait-jacket. Her professionalism was top notch as she took over an extremely important event and brought everything together to yield an incredible result that exceeded expectations. What a great experience!”

Our non-profit has been throwing events for many years and never have I run across an event planning team like them. First off, they looked at what we had been doing in the past and were able to save us $25K in event expenses from prior years! Secondly, over the years I've worked with many planners - what makes them unique from their competitors is their ability to remain calm throughout the entire planning process and during the event!

I had the distinct pleasure of working with the incomparable Michele Palmer (and her dynamic team) for my recent wedding in October 2016. I hired Michele and her team to help with month-of wedding coordination. Initially, I thought I only needed someone to help set up the venue on the day of the wedding and handle week-of phone calls with the other vendors to make sure that everyone was on board and had the correct details. However, as this was my first time planning a wedding, and despite my tendency to be an extremely organized person, there were so many little things that Michele and her team took care of that I hadn’t even expected or anticipated and that helped my wedding go off without a hitch. I would ABSOLUTELY hire Michele and her team again, for any event I host, and merrily pay whatever price to secure her services. There are literally more kudos that I want to give Michele than wedding wire will give me space for, because I copy-pasted from Word and it cut off 2/3 of my review. Basically Michele made my vision a reality and did WAY more than I thought I needed, kept me sane, and really truly made the wedding go perfectly. I did not have bridesmaids and Michele and her team were 100% responsible for making it happen. Due to Michele and her team, my husband and I were able to enjoy our wedding and feel like guests at an event that we had been planning for months. Re-read that last sentence until it sinks in. We felt like GUESTS at our own wedding, not crazy stressed-out hosts. So amazing! Hire her! You will not regret it!

I never think twice about who to call for my corporate and personal event planning needs – Michele and her team just rock every time!

Michele and Debby with Event Planning DC were so wonderful to work with for so many reasons. They are so friendly, knowledgeable, accommodating and after working with them for a year planning our wedding, I can definitely call them our friend. Our wedding day was absolutely magical! Perfect in every way.

Michele and her team were amazing!  They were supportive, creative, patient, and really listened to our ideas.  They took my daughter's desire to transform a hotel ballroom into a summer camp-themed party and really ran with it while being mindful of the parameters we set regarding budget.  The look on my daughter's face when she entered the space was something i will remember for a long time.  It was a real pleasure working with this team of pros!

We highly recommend Event Planning DC!  We are located in California and needed to hold our corporate event in DC. These ladies found us the perfect space with an amazing rooftop view of the city and planned and produced a fantastic event.

The Event Planning DC team totally helped me create my dream wedding! These ladies are organized, knowledgeable, creative, and SO friendly! It was so easy to work with Michele throughout the whole process and she truly understood my wedding vision. I knew that I didn't have anything to worry about leading up to and on the day of my wedding. The team completely took charge which allowed me to have the time of my life on my wedding day. I would highly recommend Event Planning DC to anyone with an upcoming event or wedding who is looking to create a beautiful atmosphere in the most stress-free way possible!

Michele and Carlye were exactly what my mom and I needed leading up to my wedding and more importantly, on my wedding day! My mom and I hired Michele a little over a year before my wedding this past November 10th. Michele helped my vision become a reality and kept us stress-free throughout the process.
