Planning a wedding is exciting, but it can also feel overwhelming quickly. That’s where I step in. At Faith & Co Events, my job is to take the stress off your plate so you can actually enjoy being engaged.
Whether you want someone to guide you through the entire process, step in halfway, or just keep everything running smoothly in the final stretch, I’ve got you covered. From timelines and vendor wrangling to budget check-ins and floor plans, I handle the details so you can stay focused on what really matters: celebrating with the people you love.
We specialize in:
Stress-Free Planning: From vendor research to contract negotiation, we manage every detail so you can focus on making memories.
Tailored Services: Packages designed to fit your needs—whether that’s complete planning, a helping hand as the day approaches, or a la carte services like rehearsal dinner, wedding weekend, or post-wedding brunch coordination.
Guest & Budget Management: Clear logistics, thoughtful layouts, and budget oversight to keep everything on track.
Day-of Execution: With us handling timelines, vendors, and last-minute details, you get to savor every moment with your family and friends.
I work best with busy couples who don’t have the time (or patience) to juggle a million moving parts. With a background in project management, I’m all about keeping things organized, on track, and true to your vision and all without losing the fun along the way.
At the end of the day, I don’t just want your wedding to look good — I want it to feel good. Stress-free. Personal. Memorable. The kind of day you’ll think back on and say, “We wouldn’t have changed a thing.”
Let’s take your vision and turn it into vows, seamlessly.
Faith & Co Events is a wedding planning service based in Arlington, VA.

Faith Rivers
Lead Planner & Founder
Hi, I’m Faith - the planner behind Faith & Co Events! I like to say I’m equal parts project manager and professional hype woman. Before launching my own company, I spent years managing multimillion-dollar programs in the defense world (yep, spreadsheets and strategy are my love language). Now I get to bring that same level of organization, attention to detail, and calm-in-the-chaos energy to weddings.
When I’m not building timelines or connecting with amazing vendors, you’ll probably find me running, sipping coffee at a new local spot, or hanging out with my very spoiled pup. I believe weddings should feel stylish and seamless but also fun; your day, your way, minus the stress.
If you’re looking for someone who’s as excited about your love story as you are (and who will keep everything on track while you enjoy it), we’ll be a perfect match.

so much at the set-up the day before the wedding and on the day of our wedding. Faith was so organized, providing help to contact all our vendors in the weeks leading up to the wedding, and making sure everything ran smoothly on our wedding day. We didn’t have to set up a thing, which led to a very relaxed wedding day with a surprising amount of down time. During our wedding any time we noticed something wasn’t quite to plan, we simply let her know and she talked to the relevant vendor right away to resolve the problem.
One of the only things we would change if we could was that Faith’s version of our playlists for the ceremony and reception (we didn’t have a dance floor or DJ) didn’t include all the songs that we had planned. This would’ve been easy to resolve by using one of our phones directly instead of asking Faith to manage that aspect too, so keep that in mind if that is a consideration for your event too.
I would highly recommend Faith to anyone looking for an event planner! Not only did she go above and beyond, but she was a very positive presence on our wedding day.

ng. Wedding planning can be overwhelming, but Faith made the entire process feel manageable and stress-free with her regular check-ins and constant communication. She was always just a text or phone call away, which meant so much whenever we had questions or needed guidance.
What really made Faith special was how kind and genuine she is. She didn’t treat us like just another client — she treated us like friends and truly cared about making our day everything we hoped it would be. You can tell she loves what she does and puts her whole heart into it.
Our wedding would not have been the same without her. Faith made sure every detail was handled and everything ran smoothly, allowing us to actually relax and enjoy our day. We are so grateful for everything she did and would recommend Faith & Co Events to anyone planning a wedding.

Faith was a fantastic wedding coordinator. If I were to plan a wedding again, I wouldn't consider hiring anyone else.
We hired Faith as our day-of coordinator for our wedding at ...
the Atrium at Meadowlark Botanical Gardens. We had a few calls 8-10 weeks prior and leading up to the day to go over details and expectations. Faith had thorough and consistent communication the whole time, making sure that she had everything she needed to prepare for our day. She used a website that was very helpful in remembering last minute details and covering all of our bases beforehand, but was also flexible on working with what we had from planning prior, the website had a section to upload custom documents which was useful.
On the day of the wedding, Faith and her co-coordinators did such a fantastic job that it felt like we could really enjoy every moment. We handed her the decor, she already knew the instructions from prior conversations and made sure everything happened as expected and on time. She was attentive to our requests, flexible when plans had to change, and prepared with anything I could need while getting ready. Everything happened on time, the switch from ceremony to cocktail hour to dinner was seamless. I felt like there was nothing I had to worry about the whole day as she was a fantastic manager, was able to make sure our vendors and guests knew what to do and where to go, all I really had to do was show up. Even our guests noticed how smooth everything ran and complimented Faith's work.
Faith and crew really made our wedding day special, leaving us with no worries from beginning to end. She did an amazing job, the only thing I would do differently is hire her sooner to help with more planning.

rought it to life with such creativity and attention to detail. She knew how frustrated this whole process can be. Every meeting felt easy and organized. I was all over the place but she came prepared with ideas, helpful suggestions, and a calm energy that made what could’ve been a stressful process feel exciting instead.
On my wedding day, I didn’t have to worry about a thing. She managed the timeline flawlessly, coordinated with all the vendors, and handled unexpected hiccups so smoothly that I didn’t even know about them until after the fact! Guests were raving about how beautiful everything was, and I owe that to her dedication and professionalism.
What stood out most was her genuine care. Faith is so friendly her smile makes me smile! She treated our day as if it was her own, going above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. I can’t recommend her enough. Thank you so much Faith!

We enjoyed taking pics all night at the easy to use Photo Booth and our two drink tickets did the job of getting us a little tipsy for the night. Faith was the absolute sweetest and made sure we were having a good time. If we had any questions, she was always accessible and welcoming. The grown and sexy vibes were unmatched and I definitely can’t wait to book her future events!
