What sets us apart 

  • Corporate and government expertise

​

  • Fortune 500 companies and federal and state agencies trust us with conferences, ceremonies, galas and holiday events.

​

  • As a veteran-owned, Virginia SWaM-certified small business, we bring the discipline, protocol and accountability those events demand, with planning, catering, rentals and staffing under one contract.

​

  • Multicultural celebrations

​

  • We honor each family's faith, traditions and cuisine: Nigerian, Ethiopian and Latin weddings; North and South Indian weddings, from the baraat to the reception; Chinese tea ceremonies; Catholic ceremonies; bar and bat mitzvahs; and quinceañeras.

​

  • Everything around the event. We handle the details other planners leave to you: park and venue permits, airport pickups, downtown venues with no parking, hotel blocks for out-of-town guests and minute-by-minute timelines.
