B.Mingled Weddings and Events

t even know we needed for our wedding day! She went above and beyond to make sure that the whole planning experience was as fun, easy and stress-free as possible! She is kind hearted, genuine and went above and beyond for us. We just can't say enough good things about her and would give her 10 stars if it was possible! Thank you Alyssa and B. Mingled!!

ust a text away and always very responsive. On our wedding day there was never a time when she wasn’t there to answer a dumb question or to coordinate everyone. She is also so calm and organized. I never could imagine doing our wedding without her! All in all BMingled is the best vendor we got and we feel so lucky!!

ly wrong. Alyssa was a literal saint and a lifesaver. When COVID hit, Alyssa helped keep my dream team of vendors and we rescheduled our wedding for 2021. Leading up to the wedding, she assured me that everything would be perfect and it truly was. We had multiple phone calls, exchanged texts and emails and held my hand along the way. I couldn't have imagined the day going as smoothly as it did. Alyssa was instantly integrated as part of our family during the rehearsal and on our wedding day. There are often moments that we would talk about something regarding the wedding and just sing Alyssa's praises. We truly love her and any couple would be lucky to have her as part of their team.

andemic. I cannot recommend them enough.

ly coordinated with all the vendors and executed our vision with ease. We could not have asked for a better day!

for more. Thank you, Alyssa!

dedicated they are and how passionate they are about weddings. We can’t thank them enough for making our wedding a stress free day and a dream come true!! Highly recommend them- they will not disappoint!

ive. In the end, our wedding was incredible. All of our guests could not stop gushing about how amazing everything was, how well it suited us individually and as a couple, and how well-executed the entire evening was. There's no way we could have done it without Ashly, and we are incredibly grateful for that!

helped bring our vision to life and made sure the entire day ran smoothly. Ashly was not just organized but also extremely personable and easy and fun to work with! I would highly recommend her or anyone from her team to any bride that wants a stress free wedding day!

uch a calm and professional way. Everything turned out exactly how we wanted and the team made our wedding look so gorgeous. I am so grateful to this team, and especially to Ashly, for providing such a wonderful experience!! If you're on the fence about who to choose, choose B.Mingled and you will NOT be disappointed!! THANK YOU SO MUCH B.MINGLED!!

we ended up going with, which turned out even better than we could have imagined. The entire day of the wedding so many people came up to me and told me how great she was. I cannot recommend these ladies enough. Book them now, you wont regret it!

ghly recommend the team to anyone.

as easy to get lost in the planning process with so much uncertainty, but Senta always laid out the next steps to keep us on track. On our wedding day, we didn’t have to worry about a thing! We truly couldn’t have done it without Senta and her team at B.Mingled, and highly recommend them to anyone looking for professionalism and an amazing wedding day. Thanks Senta!

finding a venue and vendors, to helping us navigate postponing our wedding due to Covid-19, Alyssa was there every step of the way to assist with our every need. She was extremely responsive, knowledgeable, and above all, kind. We like working with kind people! Sometimes I would call her simply to vent or cry (planning can be stressful!), and she was always so positive and uplifting! She showed us her heart during every interaction, and as I said, we are just grateful she was there for our wedding, for the years leading up to our wedding, and we hope to stay in touch for years to come! Thank you for everything Alyssa! :)

n contingency diagram, managed the rehearsal and wedding entry timeline. In addition, her team did any task that needed completing, including several that were not their responsibility (bringing the bride & groom drinks for the toast, inviting guests to the buffet table, etc.). In short, we could not have done this without them and I literally was able to kick back and just enjoy the entire weekend!

met someone as professional, organized, kind-hearted and caring as Ashly from B.Mingled. I hired Ashly as our Day-of-coordinator, but she is so much more than that - she is ALWAYS there when you need her even months before the wedding. She was more like a 2-3 month coordinator with the emails, texts and calls and always happy to help with anything we needed. Ashly is extremely detail oriented. She provided a very detailed schedule to me and all of my vendors, which was amazing as it eliminated any confusion. I have been in many weddings where no one knows what is going on or when to be here or there. I shared this timeline with my wedding party and there was never any question of where people needed to be at what time, and that really made a huge difference for the flow of the wedding. And to be honest it was INCREDIBLE as the Bride to not have to answer a million questions from everyone because every last detail was on the timeline. One thing I really loved about Ashly was that she told me she would not contact me for any reason on my wedding day. She took down our MOH and BM's numbers and contacted them if any minor issues popped up or if she was just checking in to see how I was doing. She did not want me to worry about anything, and it was so nice to just be able to relax and trust that everything was taken care of - which it was! Ashly arrived to Hair/Makeup, made sure everything was going well, and then loaded up her car with all of our decor items for the ceremony/reception (multiple boxes) and transported them to the venue. My reception space was absolutely breathtaking because of her setup. At the end of the night, I did not have to worry about A THING. Ashly carefully organized and packed up all of our belongings and transported everything back to the cottage at the end of the night. This is the best part. Ashly literally saved my wedding. Unfortunately, 2 of my other vendors were absolutely horrible and made me cry multiple times throughout the evening. Not only did Ashly have my back and stood up for me, but she took total charge in fixing the issues. It was so nice having someone go to battle for me so I could just enjoy myself and my loved ones. Not only that, but she always made sure I was doing great and always made sure I had a drink in my hand! Ashly was always there supporting me. I never had to go and search for her, she was always nearby and ready to help with whatever I needed. I can imagine having to deal with the vendor crisis was chaotic, but you would never know as Ashly has this incredible calm and collected presence that fills the room. The fact that she was running my entire wedding AND STILL made so much time to check in on me and get me anything I needed is truly remarkable. Not only was Ashly an amazing coordinator, but she was an AMAZING FRIEND on my wedding day. I do not know what I would have done without Ashly. I truly cannot picture my wedding without her and I will never forget her. She was hands down the best vendor we hired for our wedding. I truly believe she is the best coordinator in the game! If I could give you one piece of advice for your wedding, CHOOSE ASHLY/THE B.MINGLED TEAM AS YOUR WEDDING COORDINATOR. Trust me, you will not regret it.

ed where the ceremony started exactly on time, thanks to Ashly and her team. Ashly is extremely responsive, detailed, kind and incredibly dedicated to providing the best experience for her clients. She planned for every contingency possible and thought of details we didn’t even know we needed to think about. She took away so much of the stress of wedding planning, both in the weeks leading up to the wedding and on our actual wedding day. Words cannot describe how incredibly grateful I am to Ashly. Please do yourself a favor and hire Ashly and her team for your wedding!

which brought a strong sense of calm to the busy planning process. Our entire wedding day ran perfectly thanks to her expertise and guidance- it was like pure magic. I cannot recommend Ashly enough!

ils that we didn't even know existed. Things that could have surprised us and derailed us were handled quickly, expertly, and seamlessly by Ashly and her team. Plus, they're absolutely delightful people. When any of my friends, family, or loved ones in the DMV get married, I hope Ashly is available to work with them.

r vendors but still needed a little extra guidance on the smaller details and day-of coordination. When we made the decision to postpone our wedding a full year, that was no problem for Senta, and she made sure to check in with us every few months and help us navigate the ever-changing landscape of planning an event during COVID in a positive yet realistic way. Pandemic aside, Senta was an excellent communicator and helped answer questions we didn't even know we had. My husband and I are both pretty laid back and didn't always have a strong idea of what we wanted to do, but Senta always provided us lots of suggestions to help guide us. Senta kept us and our vendors on track to plan out every last detail before the wedding so that the wedding day went super smoothly. On the day of the wedding, Senta was calm and organized and made sure everything went off without a hitch, even with a down-to-the-wire decision of whether to move our outdoor wedding inside due to potential rain. We didn't have to worry about a thing! The B.Mingled team was able to rent us a lot of low or no-cost decorations (such a life saver), and they set everything up to look absolutely beautiful. The day ended up being perfect. Thank you, Senta!

ngle detail and make sure you are covered, things you would never even think to consider yourself. From the first time we talked on the phone, I could tell this former teacher was so organized, smart, and upbeat, and we would be in great hands with her. With covid, she went absolutely above and beyond, helping me come up with a Plan A, B, and C, negotiating with my vendors to ensure we could have the most guests in the safest way possible, and kindly putting to rest all my anxieties and fears. She kept us on time — I had multiple guests remark they were shocked how punctual everything was! When my wedding day came and the weather forecast was rainy and freezing cold, Alyssa was extremely comforting, assuring me everything would go great. She basically set up an entire outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour in addition to our indoor Plan B, trying to allow me to make the call as late as possible, based on the forecast. She checked in with us frequently in the days leading up to the wedding and during the event as well, always making sure we were happy and taken care of. Ashly from B.Mingled also ended up working our wedding, and I could tell she was certainly cut from the same cloth as Alyssa. Two powerhouse women! She fielded every text and email immediately. Responsive does not even begin to describe her. Is it weird that I kind of miss talking to her now, a few weeks after my wedding? :) If you want your coordinator to basically be a wedding angel sent from heaven, hire Alyssa. My girlfriends are literally already planning to hire her.. and they haven’t even been proposed to yet!

ions when we were indecisive, she's professional, she was flexible when we had to move our wedding date, she thought of everything we didn't even know we needed to think about, and so much more. But above all, she's incredibly kind. After having to move our wedding date, the planning process was emotional and frustrating at times, dealing with difficult vendors. Ashly helped save my sanity and was such a calming presence. Our wedding day went incredibly smoothly - at least from my perspective - and I mainly owe that to her. I could not be more thankful to have had her and would absolutely recommend B.Mingled.

ur vendors, was on call / reachable via text all day every day, and turned our wedding into the most magical day. Ashly had all the answers and had the best aesthetic opinions/suggestions. I can't believe how affordable her service is compared to the value we received - definitely book her and the team ASAP!!

officiant, music, and dessert) with ease. They asked all the questions we never imagined. They helped us plan and re-plan our day as the worldly situation dictated. They made sure we had a flawless day without stress, besides nerves and excitement.

as hands down the very best decision we made. She was extremely organized, calm and collected through the entire process. She even awed the venue team at our final walk through! She was consistently checking in and revising the timeline, as working with COVID threw a HUGE wrench in MANY of our original plans. 14 days out we had to change the location of our ceremony and Ashly not only took the news gracefully but sprang into action making a whole new plan work seamlessly. During the event she was a source of comfort and if there was ANYTHING that did happen that wasn't planned I had no idea. She was magically.

of the wedding planning process? Do I tell you how Ashly executed a flawless event under even the most unique circumstances? Do I tell you how Ashly kept us calm and moving towards our goal even with what seemed like insurmountable obstacles? Or do I tell you how I trust Ashly with my vision and walked into a ceremony and reception that was even more beautiful than I imagined? Well dear reader. I'll tell you that Ashly and the team at Bmingled are absolutely fantastic. Of all of my vendors, I am most thankful that we had Ashly. I will forever treasure the photos and videos but I am so grateful to Ashly and her team because they made our wedding day the most amazing day of my life. Both my husband and I later turned to each other and said it was as if we were floating through a dream. Everything was taken care of. I blinked and it was already done. Ashly and her team are magic. They just might be fairies. :)  I could write a novel singing the praises of Ashly and Bmingled but I will leave you with: do yourself a favor and hire Bmingled.

't have a big budget and their services were a bit above what we originally wanted to spend, but I pushed for it and told my fiancé (now husband) that it just felt like the right choice. And WOW, I am so glad I did. The pandemic hit and we unfortunately had to postpone our wedding from May to August, and then subsequently downsize from 175 to 20 guests. Alyssa was there for us through everything--helping us navigate the crazy decisions we were having to make, cross-checking date availability for postponing with our vendors, and became a shoulder to cry (and scream) on as we dealt with everything the pandemic threw at us. Throughout everything, even before the pandemic, she was organized, timely, and responsive. On our wedding day, she made sure everything happened smoothly and went above and beyond what we expected to ensure our day was perfect. We're planning a reception in 2021 once it is safer to have large gatherings again, and have already hired Alyssa for that as well because we can't imagine having that event without her. I could probably go on for several more paragraphs on why Alyssa and B.Mingled are all around incredible but I'll end it with this--If you are looking to hire a wedding planner or month-of coordinator, B.Mingled is the only company you need to talk to. Don't waste your energy interviewing anyone else. Alyssa is someone who truly cares about you, that you will become friends with and want to stay in touch with after your wedding, and who will do everything in her power to ensure your wedding day is the best day ever. I will be forever grateful to have met her and gotten to work with her for our wedding.

gined, and our venue looked absolutely flawless. The planning was also impeccable! I did not have to worry about a SINGLE THING on our big day all thanks to B.Mingled! Thank you Senta and team!

one call I knew that B. Mingled and Ashly were something extra special. She came and did an interview for us to work with her on her birthday. Who does that? Not only that but she was the only planner that I met with that had a proposal sent to me by the end of business that day. In the wedding industry many vendor overprice what they can do. B. Mingled never did that they always delivered above my expectations. From a planning standpoint any single question I had or any concerns I had she would answer with 24 hours if not less. My mother from the beginning of wedding planning didn't think a wedding planner was necessary. I can tell you at the end of the night at my wedding my mom goes, "WOW hiring Ashly was hands down the best decision we made for the whole wedding." My husband said the exact same thing. Ashly relieved the stress of the planning process. From working with our vendors to coordinating all the little logistic that I didn't even think about. She made sure that the day was executed perfectly. I'm a type A gal, very detail oriented and very picky. I can tell you this Ashly went beyond my expectations and made everything so simple and easy to do. I keep saying that, but I really am that picky, so I HAVE to keep highlighting it. The whole wedding process was enjoyable because of her. A month before my wedding we had an emergency situation where we had to change the photographer. We had decided to go with one of my husband friends, not realizing that she was a portrait photographer and not a fully wedding photographer. Ashly was the one that pointed this out and so did my sister in law. Last minute my husband and I decided we had to change photographers. Ashly help me find someone that was one of the best photographer in Washingtonian, this was not part of her job considering we did partial planning but she delivered. I don't know what we would have done without her in that situation. It was very stressful yet she made it seem okay. Our day was perfect because of her and B. Mingled. If you don't hire them you are making a horrible mistake. They are simply the best. Thank you Ashly for making my dream wedding a reality. I cannot thank them enough.

eel so much more manageable than I ever expected and helped us navigate everything from vendor selections to family dynamics. The wedding day itself was a dream - we didn't have to worry about a thing! She truly goes above and beyond - just before the ceremony we noticed that a seam on my dress had opened and Ashly was able to repair it quickly with her emergency sewing kit. She truly is amazing! Aside from her extraordinary organizational skills and professionalism, she is one of the kindest, most genuine individuals I've ever met. We will surely be recommending her to all of our recently engaged friends!

y, I knew she was it! She’s so warm, friendly, professional, organized, knowledgeable, and just all around EASY to work with (and trust me, that’s what you want)! At times when I was very stressed out a few weeks leading up to the wedding, Ashly was not only the perfect coordinator, but she was also a friend. Throughout the process, Ashly was always willing and available to hop on the phone, she was extremely responsive via email, and she was always thorough and detail-oriented in her responses. She listened to any of my concerns and valued my input/opinions - it was clear that she wanted our big day to be what we wanted, which meant a lot to us. Ashly was our “rock” and go-to person for any and all questions. We trusted her more than anyone else we worked with, which brought us such comfort! When it came to the wedding day, Ashly and her assistant were busy keeping things organized and running smoothly. I knew if I needed something that all I needed to do was go to her. But, everything was already planned and executed so perfectly that I didn’t have to think about anything during the wedding other than the joy and love that I was feeling with my new husband, family and friends. Ashly truly understood my vision - I was amazed at how beautiful everything looked and could not have been more pleased with how all the decorations turned out. After the wedding, many family and friends expressed to us how much they loved Ashly and how great they thought she was! Working with Ashly was the best decision we made in our wedding planning process. I’m sure the rest of the B.Mingled team is just as amazing and talented - so if you’re looking for a wedding coordinator, look no further! You will not be disappointed. THANK YOU Ashly and the rest of the team for being so wonderful and brining our vision to life!

me of the best vendor recommendations. However, what I couldn't have even imagined was how valuable she would be on the weekend of our wedding. From dealing with a rain plan B, to magically making sure everything detail was perfectly placed, to saving our sentimental items at the end of the day and locking them up in our cars, she was reliable, organized, and so so so kind. We loved working with her and highly recommend B Mingled.

high praise, indeed! Alyssa was responsive, professional, insightful and a lot of fun to work with and made my niece's big day extra special. I would highly recommend her and the team at B.Mingled!!

Her attention to detail, timely communication, and planning skills are top notch. She provided a very detailed schedule ahead of time which allowed me to conduct my own internal planning process with the band and DJ service. While on-site, I worked closely with Ashly to ensure the entire timeline was executed as planned. There is a lot of moving parts in regards to entertainment, song cues, flow of events, speeches, and other key moments that must be planned in great detail and Ashly was on top of everything. With her help I was able to facilitate the live music, DJ, and MC service without any issues at all. The day went extremely well and the couple was very pleased. I highly recommend Ashly and B.Mingled and would love to work with her again. Jay Glaspy Owner, Xen Live

nce with vendors in the area was invaluable. Ultimately, our wedding was stunning, ran smoothly, and we got to enjoy it, because of Alyssa. I can not say enough good things about Alyssa!

and also assertive, making her the type of person you want on your team, especially for such a big day/event. Our wedding day was much more relaxed having her there making sure everything went smoothly behind the scenes. Throughout the planning process my now husband and I said to each other multiple times how we really felt that we lucked out having found her. I can not recommend her enough. She is the best.

oast of where are wedding was. She was everything we wanted and more!

ve, easy to talk to, and truly knows her stuff. There were so many little details that we never would have thought of, and hiring Ashly as our Month-of-Coordinator was one of the best decisions we could have made. It’s unbelievable how many little things pop up right before the wedding, and she helped us stay at ease the entire time — from guiding us through issues with other vendors to recommendations on minor tweaks to the timeline. We spoke numerous times within the 6 weeks leading up to the wedding, and that was no problem. Wedding day moves by quickly and you want to relax and enjoy it, not stress about whether vendors are on time to the venue or whether it’s time or not to go cut the cake. Having someone there who could guide you through the day and help be there to fix anything that may go wrong was absolutely necessary. I got mud on my wedding dress while trying to take pictures in the grass, and Ashly and her team had an emergency kit right there for me — gone in seconds! Then we had a mishap with our officiant’s license. No problem, Ashly had called in a favor and got someone there before I even knew what was going on. It was a perfect day and we are so glad we had the perfect team.

to worry about a single thing and it was as if she read our minds. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and loved working with her and her team. Definitely recommend!!

ne the day of ;-). Our initial goal was to try to do this all ourselves; however, at the suggestion/request of our event coordinator at the resort we went ahead with a day-of-planner. SERIOUSLY - One of the best decisions we made and worth every penny and more! We didn't have to worry about any of the small (or large) details on our big day and were able to just live in the moment! If you are on the fence - take our advice, Hop off, you won't be sorry!!

e. She was highly organized and kept track of all the details, even the smallest were documented and taken care of. When I needed to attend to a family emergency, she was there to ensure the wedding continued to be managed perfectly. On the day of, she was present to manage everything, but kept it relaxed and solved any questions or “problems” (if there were any!) without a hitch. She made my day easy and special for me. I highly recoomend B.Mingled (and esp Alyssa!) if you want your day to be perfect.

we enlisted Alyssa’s services. Thanks to her everything ran very smoothly and we got to enjoy the wedding. Alyssa was on top of everything.

the weather is so beautiful in Leesburg, Virginia. Not only was Alyssa an amazing wedding planner in general, she was able to plan our perfect dream wedding in less than 4 months – we first met with Alyssa in the middle of June 2018. Just being able to pull off a successful wedding in that timeline alone is an incredible achievement – and our wedding was more than just successful, it was absolutely perfect! Alyssa’s experience and expertise as a wedding planner made all of our wedding wishes come true and helped make our wedding exactly how we envisioned. Not only did Alyssa help plan and execute our entire wedding, but also our entire rehearsal and Welcome Reception (all wedding guests were invited) for the night before the wedding. Both the Welcome Reception and Wedding were amazing events! Both the Welcome Reception, Wedding Ceremony, Cocktail Hour, and Wedding Reception progressed so smoothly and on schedule that my husband and I were able to relax and truly enjoy the magic of our special day with our friends and family. It was simply perfect. Alyssa was always very responsive, professional, poised, and gracious at all times. I cannot thank her enough for being there for us from start to finish, being so patient with me, and putting up with all of my questions, worried texts/emails/phone calls, and being flexible with any last-minute changes and my indecisiveness. For example, when our original wedding caterer cancelled unexpectedly and unprofessionally, Alyssa saved the day. Alyssa was able to that day at the last minute get us a way better caterer for even less than our catering budget. The food was excellent – which has been reiterated to us by every wedding guest we have spoken to since the wedding. Another example of Alyssa saving the day was with our wedding invitations and printed items. Given our short engagement and tight timeline to get wedding invitation out – and when I realized I did not love any of the invitations on the usual websites and wanted to have a customized wedding invitation suite design, custom information cards, and a custom RSVP card since all wedding guests were invited to attend the Welcome Reception on Friday, Wedding on Saturday, and Post-Wedding Brunch on Sunday – Alyssa introduced me to a very talented local wedding invitation designer who I was able to work closely with to personally design the most beautiful wedding invitation suite, wedding monogram, and all of our other custom design and printed materials used throughout the wedding. It all worked out wonderfully - all of the designs, invitations, and printed materials were absolutely beautiful! I highly recommend hiring Alyssa Rudat at B. Mingled as your wedding planner! Alyssa will ensure that your wedding will be more perfect than you ever thought possible!

rateful for that. If you are NOT sure whether or not to get a coordinator, I cannot tell you how this was the best decision I made. They took on our wedding as their own with love and care. B.Mingled is a class act- trustworthy, communicative, step-above the rest in the DC Metro area.

p about a two months out from the wedding I felt so much more at ease about all the moving pieces and was so comfortable leaving our big day in her able hands. From day one she was responsive, attentive to detail, well organized, creative, and firm when she needed to be. Our wedding was non traditional and she listened carefully to all the little quirks we had in mind and executed them flawlessly. It was forecasted to rain on our outdoor wedding at Morven Park so there were a ton of additional details to work out just days before the wedding. I was devastated and panicked and all around so upset. Ashly handled everything and came up with the best contingency plan, even while I cried and complained. On the day of, Ashly took on everything that came at her (including me losing my vows and my mother being twenty minutes late to the ceremony) with a smile and a "no problem, we can do this." Toward the end of the night we couldn't find the lock box meant to hide the keys to my car so she could load it up with decor for clean up. It turns out it had fallen off somewhere by the ceremony site and she went out IN THE RAIN and found it. She was an absolute godsend - the best I could have asked for and you would be so so lucky to have her. THANK YOU, ASHLY AND B MINGLED for making our day flawless.

from the beginning to the end and did everything I wanted and more! I would highly recommend them to anyone!!!
