Over a month has passed since our wedding- yet Kevin and I are still stumbling, trying to find the…read morewords to express our gratitude to Andrew and his team for giving us the best day of our lives. Before Andrew, we were wracked with anxiety. There was so much that we didn't know, and yet there was so much that had to be done. Immediately. And while we knew that we needed help, we did not know where to turn. So as one does, we picked up our phones and looked towards Google. Andrew Roby Events ("ARE") was at the top of the list for event planning services. After scrolling through ARE's website, reading articles about Andrew's background, watching his inspiring videos and - most importantly, looking at photographs of his work, I just knew that he wouldn't be available or would be out of our price range. After all, it was clear that he was a giant in the industry. There was just no way! But I crossed my fingers and sent an inquiry anyway. I was gobsmacked to receive a positive response and to hear of his willingness to schedule an exploratory Zoom call with us to discuss our needs and wants. Things changed after our first meeting with Andrew. My fiancé and I had been lost in a thicket, but Andrew took our hands and led us to our destination. Not only were we granted complete access to a wedding database (that helped us track deadlines, our budget, and guest list), but to Andrew himself. He coached us and helped us to formulate our vision for the wedding. We told him our dream, and he not only designed (YES: HE DOES THAT TOO!), orchestrated and executed every detail - he exceeded every element of our fantasy. I've included pictures that not only showcase the beauty that Andrew created, but that also show the love that he gave us through his work. Kevin and I will forever be grateful to Andrew. What he did for us, our family, and our friends can never be repaid. He is, by far, the best.

It was an absolute delight to work with Yodit and her team and I couldn't imagine my magical day…read morewithout her by my side! While I could truly write for days, I will share a few highlights for the next guest or partner of Yodit: - Yodit is a calm presence. From every phone call, meeting in person, email, or text, Yodit was affirming, supportive, solution oriented, and fully confident. If I had concerns or questions about something, she was really great at providing details, answering, and confirming that I felt clear, better, or otherwise. - Yodit is very in tune with her clients. When working with other vendors, she would often share, "my client is visual - could you please provide pictures?" In addition to learning how we processed and made decisions, she would also present vendors who she felt aligned with our energy, wedding vibes, and could work well with us and one another. She truly understands people and how they feel, react, and work together. In moments of challenge, she also prioritized how we could feel, managed any dynamics with vendors, and felt comfortable troubleshooting. - Yodit is very open to feedback and able to have harder conversations. She values the relationship with her clients and vendors, and truly wants to be able to engage in open dialogue. - Yodit is extremely respected in the industry. Each vendor we worked with spoke so highly of Yodit. People were very honored and excited to work with Yodit and be selected by us. In turn, the deliverables were all on point. Again, this goes back to Yodit's relationships. On the day of my wedding, the vendors were so happy to see one an other, work with me, and invested a lot of time into making sure every detail was covered. - Yodit is fun, loving, joyful, and caring. After working together for so long, she truly grew into a person who I could exchange life updates with, learn from, and enjoy special moments with regularly. Lastly, I'll just share that Yodit loves what she does and without a doubt knows what she is doing. From planning, to vendors, to which flowers are best in certain seasons, to color shades, choosing chairs, and more - she's solid. She knows the tricks of the trade, offers good advice, and it ready to be with you on the journey. She is strategic, well experienced, and has high integrity. She moves knowing her name is literally on everything, but more importantly, that this day, event, experience is so important to the client. Her team also shares these qualities and invests deeply in your wedding, experience, and caring for you throughout. Yodit is amazing.

There are two main reasons why I plan to stay married to my wife for the rest of my life…read more 1. I love my wife. I'm stupid lucky to have her in my life as the mother of my child and I wake up everyday thankful to have her in my life 2. I never want to plan a wedding again. I would rather get dental surgery while waiting for my number to be called in the DMV with no Internet or cell signal. It's not for me. #2 is the reason why I LOVED having Tristan Nery and Modem Music Box by my side. He took the time to meet with me and my wife over a complimentary consultation that felt more like a casual conversation with a close friend than a formality or a component of a transaction. Tristan took the time to understand the symbolism and meaning behind why certain songs had to be played at certain times of the evening and why specific tracks must not be played. He organized everything music wise so I wouldn't have to do it. On the day of the wedding, Tristan and his staff were punctual and prompt when setting up at our venue in Tyson's Corner. The sound itself from their top of the live equipment was nice with just the right amount of bass. He remembered my mom's favorite song and even took the time to help create a very memorable and meaningful photo. Outside of the Lechon and Ben & Jerry's ice cream caterer, hiring Tristan and Modern Music Box was the second best decision I made that week...Second only to marrying the woman who couldn't stop dancing to his carefully crafted set.

Tristan was a wonderful DJ and emcee. He had so much energy during our grand introductions, smooth flow when transitioning between the events of the night; and him and his assistant even helped us with the tech last-minute for a special performance from our bridal party. They kept the music and energy up and everyone was dancing and enjoying the whole night. As a bride, you already have so many things to be worried about on your wedding day, but everything went so smoothly with Modern Music Box! I am extremely thankful for that. We highly recommend Modern Music Box for your next event!

Someone who listens to your needs and incorporates every bit of it into your dream wedding? Read on to find out our story... Ours was an Indian wedding.Amina Jaladi and her husband Mehdi were the best! She was god-sent, we had only 15 days to go to the wedding and she exceeded my expectations! I was looking for someone who had elegant tastes as well as worked within our budget. The venue was at Crowne Plaza, Herndon. She was so easy to work with, was always on time. We had previously paid money to a strong headed and arrogant Indian wedding decorator in Ashburn whose tastes were way too different from ours(read cheap) and also refused to work in our budget despite saying otherwise.So decided to let her go. It was then that we understood that these kind of people can cause trouble till the D-day. We found event envy via google ,called Amina and she came to meet us at a nearby Starbucks the very same day! Loved her attitude and her energy. We 100% trusted her to show up and do her magic, man she didn't disappoint us a bit. She had some interesting suggestions and gave us some extra decor for free even!We have attached some pics for you to see. Love from Shobana and Revanth!
