My husband and I cannot say enough wonderful things about Emily and her team. Water and Wine are not only exceptional at what they do but they are wonderful people to be around. Emily is a very personable person with a bubbly yet calming personality. From our first interaction to our wedding day, Emily took the time to understand our vision and ensure every detail was addressed. She handled everything with our vendors, ensured the timeline was perfect, seating charts and layout were set, décor and signage were setup correctly, managed our timing for everything on our wedding day wonderfully, and more. When looking for a wedding planner, it is essential they have the necessary skills, such as being responsive and communicative to you and your vendors, have attention to detail, be able to listen to your concerns and wishes, and organize everything effectively to have a successful wedding day. Emily and her team excelled at all those things and went above and beyond to make our day perfect. However, what sets Emily and her team apart from all the other wedding planners out there is that they genuinely care about the relationships they build with those they meet. They are incredibly passionate about what they do and understand that a couple’s wedding is one of the most emotionally significant days of their lives. Water and Wine will bring your vision to life and ensure you and your husband enjoy your special day. It was a pleasure to share our wedding day with Emily and her assistant (also Emily), we really couldn’t have asked for a better team. We would recommend Water & Wine to anyone!

I don’t even know where to begin. Hiring a day of wedding coordinator was the best decision we made when planning our wedding. Our wedding day would not have been as amazing as it was without Emily and her team. Prior to our wedding day Emily met with us to discuss our timeline and was constantly adjusting the timeline based off our needs. Just some of the many things she did that made us feel at ease included spoking with each vendor, made sure all necessary forms were filled out and when we had a hard time reaching a vendor, she made it her mission to get them to respond.
She worked tirelessly to make our dream wedding come to life and she was accessible and responsive throughout the entire process. She recommended vendors that she trusted, coordinated with all of my vendors on the day of so that things would run smoothly, and executed every detail to perfection.
She went above and beyond to ensure our day ran smoothly. I later found out there were hiccups that Emily quickly resolved and never mentioned so I wouldn’t stress! Emily and her team were beyond good to us.
Workin with Water and Wine VA was such a delight! Met every exceptions and the very reasonable priced as well!
These are just a few reasons to hire Emily and her team! JUST DO IT!!
I am SO thankful we had Emily and her team to help with planning and coordination for our big day! First, she was SO supportive and flexible when we had to reschedule due to Covid restrictions. She was always thorough and thoughtful in answering all of my questions!
On the day of, I feel like everything went perfectly ! Emily knows what she is doing and is able to keep things moving! Please hire Water and Wine for your events if you want an experienced, cheerful, and organized team!
Emily is so personable, bubbly, and easy to work with! We hired her for event designing and day of coordination at Adaline Acres for our 10/10/2020. With COVID, we were going back and forth about whether to postpone or cancel and she helped us process and rehash multiple times. She helped us with figuring out details, timeline, and made sure we made it down the aisle! It was a very wet, rainy day but Emily and her assistant made things happen. They were flexible, direct, and formulated a plan B on a whim. I personally did not have a rainy day plan because we literally only planned for an outdoor wedding/reception because of COVID. However, she made it happen and everything was flawless and seamless. She got a 30-person wedding party down the aisle, got all the guests out of the building on time, and broke down our wedding into vehicles all in the same night.
We have nothing but incredible things to say about Emily! Emily served as our wedding coordinator and I truly do not know how we wouldve pulled off our wedding without her. Your wedding weekend is so busy without having to stress about little details, and knowing Emily was handling all of it allowed us to breathe and fully enjoy our wedding day. She created our wedding timeline by focusing on the aspects of our wedding that we cared about most, she handled some of our more challenging groomsmen and wedding guests so impressively well, and her and her team set up our reception tables and decor miles above what I had envisioned. When rescheduling for coronavirus concerns, she was reassuring and always a step ahead of all of the considerations that come along with moving a wedding. My only regret is not hiring her to plan our full wedding. Having Emily and her team as a part of your day is something you will not regret!
Working with Emily is so enjoyable! She puts together the most beautiful tablescapes and stays SO calm under pressure. She is very talented at what she does, and she has the kindest heart!
The best decision I made when planning my wedding was hiring Emily as my wedding planner! She listens to and keeps in mind wishes/concerns, she is detail oriented, and overall the sweetest person! Leading up to the wedding I didn’t stress at all thanks to Emily! My wedding day ran so smooth, and I found out later there were kinks that had to be worked out by Emily and Mary that were solved without any knowledge to me! I can not recommend Water and Wine enough! I will definitely be using Emily for all future events!
