Nouvelle Weddings

elected Nouvelle's month of planning package (months before my actual wedding). Immediately Brianna and her team started mapping out our wedding timeline even before our 6-week countdown. We had the ABSOLUTE pleasure of working with Kara for our big day. Kara was incredible. 6 weeks before our wedding, she jumped right into the planning. She reached out to all our vendors, coordinated arrival times and kept them all in the loop regarding our wedding day timeline. She did most of the vendor communication leading up to the wedding, which took a lot of that stress off of me. The day of the wedding, Kara and her team made the entire day a breeze. Everything was right on schedule. Our day would not have been what it was without Kara and the nouvelle team. They are absolutely incredible!

on is everything and more you want when planning a wedding.

p. I wanted a designer that listened to what I wanted and who would actually deliver. LynnAaron did just that and more. I didn't realize how much I would appreciate the sheer comfort of how empathetic and kind she was throughout the whole process. It was as if she could read my mind half the time, and she brought my vision to life. Her dedication and responsiveness is a MUST when you are as controlling as I am, so I can never thank her enough for that. Admittedly, I was THAT bride. When Cindy joined in for month-of-coordination and general planning, she really put me at ease. I had met my to-do list match!! I was so thoroughly impressed by how on-top of things Cindy was; she thought of EVERYTHING before it even crossed my mind. With LynnAaron and Cindy combined, I genuinely had the wedding of my dreams (and they made it so my husband could just nod and say yes to stuff, which made it the wedding of HIS dreams). Brianna, on top of everything, was so kind and gracious throughout the billing and booking process. She even sent us the most thoughtful, beautiful gift after our wedding. I can't say enough about Nouvelle and how much they mean to us. THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts. Love, the Hollanders <3

onderful, she was always there to answer questions or bounce ideas off of. She saw our vision of our ceremony and reception space and helped us get there. She met with us and with a couple of our vendors along the way and gave her thoughts and reasoning and we took her advice along the way. Our day of coordinators, Akina and Kara, were absolutely fabulous, they helped our day flow so well and were always there when I needed something. Akina came to our venue walkthrough and did EVERYTHING behind the scenes for us the month leading up to our wedding. We didn’t have to worry about a thing— which is exactly what we were looking for. The team at Nouvelle is wonderful! I highly recommend hiring them for your planning and coordination needs!

ed at any part of the process because I knew she had everything under control and was working on everything behind the scenes. When it came time to think about design, LynnAaron was able to pull out details and colors from inspiration photos I’d provided that I hadn’t even realized I wanted. Our wedding turned out to be an absolute fairytale and everyone remarked on how I was doing nothing but smiling the whole day and not worrying about anything at all. She felt more like a friend (who knows everything about weddings) by the end. Thank you LynnAaron!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

l freak and was very worried about being able to let go of small planning details and relax on our wedding day. If you are like me, you need Cindy! She took care of anything and everything I could have possibly needed leading up to the day and on the day of. Even to the very end of packing everything into my in-laws car while we were at the after party. She is incredibly professional but also so sweet, and exactly the kind of person you would trust with a day as special as your wedding day. Thank you, Nouvelle!

with the planning. We used their Aisle Planner system throughout the process which helped my husband and I stay on track, especially as the big day approached and there was so much to remember to do! Lynn Aaron was always available to us for questions, calls, and emails and helped the entire day go off without a hitch. Or if there was a hitch - she handled it without us even knowing! Thank you again!!!

Julia, who was wonderful to work with. She was incredibly organized and detail oriented, and she was very responsive via email leading up to the wedding. On the wedding day Julia was assisted by Kara and Alex, who were both fantastic and kept the whole day running smoothly. Everyone on the planner team worked well with all of our other vendors and all of our guests were impressed with how flawless the day went. We are forever grateful to the Nouvelle team and could not recommend them more.

of everything. Day of, anything I as the bride needed or that needed to get done, she just executed and did so with such calm. HIGHLY recommend LynnAaron/Nouvelle Weddings!

ankful for the support this team provided to us and we would highly recommend this team to anyone looking for help in planning the wedding of their dreams.

ng our vision flawlessly two years after we began planning. She made the planning process stress-free, organized and enjoyable. Her recommendations were spot on - hire Millenium as a wedding band!!!! I did not have to think about a single logistic on the day of the wedding. I cannot recommend and thank Nouvelle Weddings enough!!

been able to plan and execute our wedding had it not been for LynnAaron. First off, she is incredibly professional, organized, and available during the entire process. She helped us create a budget that we were comfortable with and allowed us to achieve our vision. Additionally, she was able to tailor her vendor recommendations based on what we liked and she had amazing recommendations! She was also a huge help in navigating vendor contracts, which was needed when accounting for the length of the day and number of events. Whereas I would have been overwhelmed with coming up with the décor, she thought of every single detail and it all came together beautifully the day of the wedding. She handled each obstacle that came up (the DJ leaving the company 2 weeks before the wedding, last minute rainy weather) and was able to present solutions so that we never felt any stress The wedding day was essentially stress free! ! She made sure everything was taken care of and that we were where we needed to be at all times. It managed to rain right 10 minutes before my outdoor ceremony and LynnAaron was able to quickly convert everything indoors. Lastly, LynnAaron became a friend to us and we enjoyed getting to talk with her over throughout the wedding planning process. Hiring LynnAaron and Nouvelle Weddings was the best decision we made and worth every penny! I cannot recommend them enough!

r of guests, budget) and LynnAaron always made sure to make our priorities hers as well. She handled everything, was always available, responded super quickly when I sent her nervous emails at 10 PM, and was super kind throughout it all. I genuinely did not know the ins-and-outs of planning a wedding, and LynnAaron made all of it clear. She created a timeline for when things were due (e.g., send out invitations 3 months before the wedding, finalize music list a week before the wedding) and worked closely with other vendors to make sure we were all on top of things. All of her suggestions for vendors were also super professional, awesome, and matched our vision, making everything come together as we imagined it. For example, I mentioned to her how I would love cafe lights in the reception area of our venue (Rose Hill Manor) super late in the game, and she managed to find an awesome company to make this vision come true days before the wedding! On the day of the wedding, LynnAaron was very comforting and on top of everything. She made sure to locate waters for my bridal party and I since it we expressed we were quite tired and thirsty, and after my husband and I walked back after wrapping up the ceremony, she gave us a glass of our signature drinks! She also made sure to give us a plate of food during the reception because if there is one thing newlyweds must know, you probably won't be able to eat with everyone hovering around you. You can definitely tell that she genuinely enjoys her job and cares immensely for her clients. At the end of the wedding night, we had guests asking us about her, if they could hire her for the next weddings to come, and how we found her. It's been 2 months since our wedding and we still get comments about how wonderfully organized the wedding was and how my wedding was probably the best our guests had been to in years (I'm sure guests say that to everyone, but it felt genuine). I always make sure to let people know that all of this is because of LynnAaron and Nouvelle Weddings. I would suggest this vendor to anyone who asks me, but if you're a nervous and busy bride, I hands-down will always suggest people to not just hire any planner, but Nouvelle Weddings. Thank you NW and LynnAaron!!!

have an experience planning the big day without a planner. Well, now I can assure you that it is entirely worth it. We hired them pre Covid, and LynnAaron saved the day in many situations. However, we had our large day toward the end of Covid, so we had the same experience that regular brides have, and I can easily PROMISE that hiring Nouvelle Weddings (NW) is worth every penny. Every single penny and then some. I hired them for the entire planning process—from the beginning. LynnAaron made everything so easy—I would tell her what ideas I liked, and she would come back to me with expansions and plans for several of the ideas—then we would work with the things I liked from each plan/design she presented. The vendors she recommended were awesome. She was helpful and decisive when I couldn’t be, and supportive when I knew what I wanted. In addition her ideas were stunning—things I NEVER would have thought of on my own—but each small idea added up to a stunning day. She had so many obstacles—our hotel closing a few weeks pre wedding (not due to Covid), my hair person having to cancel, and many more—with quickness and efficiency. She NEVER came to my husband and me with a problem—yet I also never felt like I was in the dark—she came to my husband and me and told us about the obstacle and a SOLUTION for the issue. I never had to stress about stuff because she always would be able to explain the problems and then explain how she would execute fixing said problems. I have to admit the cost isn’t tiny, yet I would have paid double to have the results, and I cannot recommend NW and LynnAaron enough. Yes yes yes is my advice if you are considering planners, and yes yes yes to choosing NW is my rec.

tely put us at ease at the thought of wedding planning during a pandemic even via Zoom. LynnAaron was our wedding planner for design + month of coordination. LynnAaron’s organizational skills coupled with her calm and friendly personality made for the perfect planning process. She was incredibly prompt and responsive with our questions (big or small), helped guide us through various vendor appointments, and used her incredible design eye to help our wedding vision come to life. We would work LynnAaron again in an instant and have been recommending her to all of our recently engaged friends. During our first meeting with LynnAaron she told us a successful wedding day would involve us (bride + groom) not knowing if anything went wrong. She meant it! It was only after the reception was over (and we asked how the venue prep had gone) that LynnAaron told us that the venue had lost power for about 2 hours before we arrived. LynnAaron was advocating for us and working to create backup plans during that time to ensure our wedding was perfect. Luckily the power came back on, but it reassuring to know she was at the venue on our behalf (and didn’t tell us about it as it was happening).

ch of our stress. On our first meeting Briana (the owner )and LynnAaron (lead planner ) are straight to the point , they helped us set realistic budget for each vendors to make our wedding inspirations come to life . We appreciate how they work around with our set budget instead of the other way around and getting surprised with the final expense at the end. They are so organized , communication was easy and friendly. Throughout the planning process LynnAaron gave us what we have to accomplish in a month and remind us throughout. We would not have been able to stay on top and get organized without her help. Due to COVID-19 we had to move our dates, cut down guests, reschedule vendors , find new vendor etc.,but LynnAaron handled it like a pro , everything was such smooth transitions and stress free. We can’t imagine going through the ups and downs without her. We just love how LynAaron nonchalantly told us she will custom made our escort cards wall and welcome sign when we couldn’t find what we want anywhere and they turned out so pretty ! 💜 On a personal note, we truly enjoyed getting to know LynnAaron over the year we’ve worked together and she become a friend to us ☺️ LynnAaron thank you for working so hard even when our day was during your birthday week. Thank you for your continuous care and check up even after our wedding is over. Love ❤️ Lian & J.J

lieve me, I was super skeptical - no way was I actually going to enjoy planning my wedding...but I did! The entire wedding planning team at Nouvelle Weddings is the absolute real deal. Their experience shines through and their compassion and kindness is priceless. We had the best experience working with them and recommend that anyone reading this hire them NOW!! You will be so glad you did!

our best interest at heart and they always sent us options that reflected our own personal styles and personalities. Not only did they come up with a gorgeous wedding design, but they also are experts in all of the ins and outs of weddings - all of the details, timing, and logistics!! Our wedding day was even more perfect that we could have imagined. Everything flowed perfectly and we just got to enjoy the entire day with our family and friends. All of our guests raved about the wedding as well, saying it was the best they've ever been to! We had the best time planning with them and we are sad that our journey with them is over. If we could do it all again just to talk to them more, we would!

our vision to life and was the voice of reason if we started to veer off budget or in a direction that didn’t blend with our original vision (like when I went to a wedding mid-planning and thought I wanted to go in an entirely different direction three months before our wedding!). Briana’s entire team was so organized and detail oriented, and the entire process was methodical. She presented us with just the right amount of information and options that was timed perfectly along the way so that we didn’t get overwhelmed. I’ll never forget the moment when I walked into our reception with my mom and Briana to see our vision finally executed—I was blown away. I trusted her every step of the way and cannot imagine planning my wedding with a better team. She worked well with all of our vendors and the day of was seamless. I cannot recommend her enough to anyone who is planning a wedding. She is worth every penny and more. She became a very close friend through this whole process and a much needed opinion-let’s be honest, your soon to be husband doesn’t want to spend countless hours with you thinking through your linens or your stationary. Briana has your back! The day of transitioned seamlessly and Briana kept us on schedule the entire day.

er our first meeting I had confidence that she would get the job done. Her organizational skills were key and really appeased my type A personality. With Briana’s assistance in narrowing down vendors we had soon built our team and our wedding became a reality. Briana took on a big role in helping stylize our wedding with my sole hint of “Kate Spade.” I am not really a “wedding of my dreams” girl but our wedding was an exact fit. We absolutely had the day we wanted with the people we love and have the best memories. The quality of vendors was incredible, and we came in remarkably close to budget.

r from the beginning, my goal for the day was to not have to worry about anything, and I was able to do just that! If you are able to find room in your budget, do not hesitate to hire her! You won't regret it! It is absolutely worth it to have a perfectly executed, super fun and completely stress free wedding day!

are so thankful we chose to work with Nouvelle weddings!

prettify is great, but both of us needed someone who could give us a good foundation for planning a wedding and keep us cost conscious!). From our very first video conference with Briana, it was clear that she was the kind of planner we were looking for. For example, early during wedding planning, we ran into issues with our original venue that we had booked before hiring Nouvelle. We had to back out of the contract and look for new venues, at a time when many suitable places had already gotten booked. Long story short, because of Briana and her team's immediate and amazing help, we were able to find an INCREDIBLE venue (Salamander Resort) that fit both our and our family's needs, and turned out to be the most beautiful backdrop for our wedding. Briana's knowledge of the nuts-and-bolts of putting on a seamless wedding day and all of her vendor recommendations were invaluable! She also had a great online portal and timeline that kept us on track, for instance allowing us to book vendors in a timely fashion, which is great for two busy procrastinators like us. The design board she creates was also very useful at communicating our vision with our decorator/florist. Finally, I really felt like Briana was there for us as our friend. Close to the wedding day I turned to her for advice on dealing with one of the vendors (not one that she had recommended, which in retrospect was my poor decision) and just having her available to ask advice from was so helpful in making difficult decisions or having awkward conversations with said vendor. Now let's talk about the actual wedding day. Our wedding was a jam-packed, large Jewish-Hindu wedding day with two ceremonies, a Baraat (groom's procession), and an evening reception. This day involved several outfit changes, different locations on the property, and two main photography sessions. Somehow, Briana put together an amazing timeline that was able to entertain all of these things. In addition, most of our events (including the 1:45 hr Hindu ceremony) were outside, and the weather leading up to the wedding day was expected to be overcast with rain. While the day itself turned out to be stunning, Briana was instrumental in making sure we had a reasonable rain plan that we were happy with. She, Sarah, and the rest of the team made sure everything ran smoothly and coordinated our vendors seamlessly to create an incredibly cohesive wedding day. With all weddings, especially an inter-cultural one like ours, there is bound to be some stress but what Nouvelle did was make it as minimal as possible so we could really relish the wonderful time that we could spend with our loved ones. We have received so many compliments on our wedding venue, caterer, photographer, stationery, and just the wedding day itself.. and so much of that is due to Briana and her team. If you are getting married in the DMV area, do yourself a favor and reach out to Nouvelle for wedding planning - Briana and her team are truly incredible and we cannot thank them enough for all that they did for us!
