My fiance at the time and I were looking for a wedding coordinator. My sister in law recommended Urban Elegance namely Amanda as the point of contact. Upon our first meeting, it was important for Amanda to get to know our personalities and what our vision was for our wedding. She in turn used this information to create the wedding of our dreams. We are glad we chose Urban Elegance as Amanda was detail oriented, resourceful, mindful of our budget, and kept our desires in the fore front to create a wedding event to remember. My husband and I are pleased with how things turned out after a year of planning to include visits to venues, monthly meetings, consistent correspondence via phone, email and video calls.
On our wedding day, our guests described Amanda and her team as welcoming and professional. The ceremony as being filled with love and well organized. The reception as elegant, fun and just a joyous and celebratory atmosphere.
The culmination of planning because of Amanda resulted in such an unforgettable experience for us, our family and friends.

Working with Amanda and Nikki of Urban Elegance was nothing short of amazing! I couldn't ask for anything more in a wedding planner in providing a professional experience for a client from beginning to end. Urban Elegance introduced themselves to me months prior before our wedding to ensure that I was in good hands and they ensured planning a timely wedding day allowing for a beautiful setup, ceremony and reception design and solid communication up until and after the event to tend to any needs to provide a flawless and memorable experience. I highly recommend Urban Elegance to anyone looking for a professional event planning that will go above and beyond all expectations!

Urban Elegance was spectacular. We could not have hoped for a more dedicated, flexible and resourceful wedding planner. Urban Elegance was originally tasked with planning our nuptials in Florida which was a real challenge since it all had to be planned remotely with a few visits by us and UE. But little did we know the challenge was about to get a lot larger.

Suddenly, the coronavirus pandemic was declared which made our planned 250+ gathering impossible. While we were given the option to reschedule, we decided this date was ours and no one not even a once in 100 year virus would take that away from us. UE was committed to supporting our decision to make it happen despite the obstacles.

Upon UE’s recommendation, we pivoted from Florida to the DC area where we reside. In a little less than 6 weeks, UE found us a venue, negotiated a “Covid” friendly contract and planned a socially distant wedding with 48 of our family members and close friends. From providing masks, to providing seat maps with appropriate spacing, to managing guest concerns about Covid, to drawing on UE’s network to find covid-safe last minute vendors, UE effortless added these additional details to an already naturally detailed event. Despite all of this, UE insured that it remained personalized, romantic, memorable and just simply beautiful. We loved it! Thank you Urban Elegance.

The Urban Elegance annual brunch during Howard University Homecoming weekend is the absolute best event all year. The venue is always spacious with great music and amazing ambiance. The food is always bountiful and decadent. But what sets this event apart from any other is the vibe that Urban Elegance provides. The abundance of friends and family who loyally patronize this brunch every year is a testament to impeccable customer service they provide. It’s truly the highlight Homecoming for me personally!

From the very first phone call, Urban Elegance handled our corporate event with velvet gloves. When we contacted them for help with our virtual holiday celebration, we didn't exactly know what we wanted, all we knew was we didn't want our workforce bored to tears while staring at their computers. UE knew precisely what to do and flawlessly walked us through the process. Every vendor presented to us was more than qualified to make our virtual holiday experience memorable. Our employees continued to talk about the gift boxes, DJ, and photo booth well into the new year. We highly recommend Urban Elegance for your next corporate event. They are meticulous in planning, fiscally prudent and dedicated to delivering services on time.

I have had the pleasure of working with the Urban Elegance team on different weddings. The attention to detail and execution of the wedding days tasks were outstanding. Amanda and Nikki are truly professionals and you can defiantly see this in the manor of how they work throughout the day. If you are looking for a planner that help you from step A to Z look no further that Urban Elegance!

When my now wife and I decided to move forward with our wedding, we knew exactly who we needed, Urban Elegance, to help make our nuptials epic. They did not disappoint. They actually exceeded expectations. Their experience, organization skills, attention to detail were top-notch. They also served as our bad cop and pit bull (vendors tried to rob us blind. Urban Elegance wasn’t having it.) Thank you UE.

So I contacted Urban Elegance, LLC to help me plan my small birthday celebrations in July. Let me just say that without their help, I would probably still be planning my celebrations as I type this review late September. UE, LLC is friendly, professional, PATIENT, timely, realistic, and I appreciate those qualities about them. Oh, did I say organized? Yes, I was able to keep my spending for this event within a reasonable amount, considering the amount of time I was working with - literally 2 and a half weeks. And the fact that I was planning all of this with just a short amount of time, meant that whenever I was frazzled UE, LLC managed to calm my nerves, which is not an easy feat LOL> My bday celebration was nothing big at all, but UE, LLC made sure I did not feel like a miniscule customer compared to some of their larger clients/events.
Style and class were both on display. And the cupcake vendor they recommended was all the rave!!! Would I use them again? Yes. Would I recommend them? Most definitely. Would I attend any of their events? Absolutely.
