DC EVENT AND WEDDING PLANNER ANDREW IN A NUTSHELL
Get Excited!
My name is Andrew and I’m a Proud Army Vet who happens to be a great DC Event and Wedding Planner! I like to call myself an Event Storyteller who is passionate about romantic weddings and engaging events.
I drink a lot of tea. Therefore, would fight you for some whiskey (kidding), love seafood, and was born in Miami so of course I LOVE TO HAVE FUN!!
Additionally, I’m a world traveler. I’ve been to 20 different countries and counting.
Within my 13 year career I have had the honor of working with brands such as The Knot, Munaluchi Bride, The CW, Simon Malls, The Art Institute, Northern Virginia Magazine, The City of Alexandria, VA, Vita Coco, Kind Snacks, and Honest Tea.
My work has been seen in Washingtonian Magazine, Modern Luxury, Wedding Chicks, Logo TV, CNN, Fox, Wedding Wire and many other leading publications.
Above all, I’m most proud of my work with some tremendous charities like Ms. Veteran America, Susan G. Komen, The Cinderella Foundation, and So Others Might Eat who dedicate their lives to helping others.
It’s not just about planning events. It certainly isn’t about me. It’s about making sure you get the best help to reach your bottom line.
Finally, events are more than just logistical work. It’s what happens before, during and after each event that resonates the most with our clients. This is why we have a 5 star rating. I’m super grateful.

I love the creativity in developing uniquely themed events whether it’s on a small budget or large budget. Having the ability to be creative is an essential part of the event planning experience. I enjoy the variety that each event brings; nothing is ever the same.
Every event is different and presents it own unique set of experiences and challenges. Most events will not take place in the same venue, which gives me as a planner, the opportunity to use a different canvas each time.
The entertainment and food will also differ, so it gives me the opportunity to work with others and expand my network of partners.
However, this is just couple of things that I love as a DC Event Planner. The most important part I enjoy about planning events is the PEOPLE! I love making people happy and seeing the smiles on their face. From the Clients to their guest, it’s all about pleasing them and understanding what they want.
I enjoy being able to read between lines to determine what the client actually means and being able to innovatively deliver exactly what they meant. Oh! did I mention the travel. The great part is being able to do the job from anywhere in the world! These are just a few reason why I love being a DC Event and Wedding Planner.

I love events because I enjoy being a part of different people’s special day. It makes me feel good to be able to see a smile on their faces after their event has been revealed, even if I played a small or large roll.

I love to give clients the experience of a lifetime and hope that they feel special and valued by the service we provide. Whether it’s a wedding or birthday party, being able to create something special is a feeling sometimes you can’t describe.

Being in the moment and behind the scenes making the magic happen and seeing the end result, makes it all worthwhile when event planning in DC and LA.
