    Hiring Melanie was the best decision!

    I cannot recommend Melanie and the entire Details and Lace staff enough! Hiring Melanie was the best decision we could have ever made. Melanie was a constant calming presence throughout the crazy wedding planning process. She made sure to listen to what my husband and I wanted, and was vital in ensuring that we had the best day ever. We could not have done this process without Melanie, and knew that our wedding was in good hands with Details & Lace!

    Highly recommend!!

    Melanie and her team are amazing!! She and her team made sure that our ceremony and reception ran smoothly, she worked well with the other vendors and kept everyone organized. I would highly recommend her services if you are looking for a wedding planner or coordinator. She and her team were easy to contact and answered any questions we had about the wedding day.

    Details & Lace is the BEST

    Melanie and her two assistants are AMAZING. All three ladies are so responsive and do whatever they can to help with the planning process. Wedding day the team was a lifesaver, keeping things on time, helping with guests and helping us to take breaths and enjoy our day. I highly recommend them... they will make your day so much more special and seamless.

    Fulfilled Every Wish

    Our daughter's ceremony and reception was flawless and fulfilled every wish the couple (and their families) had for the day. We could not have done it without Melanie's calmness, help and wisdom. The vendors she suggested knocked it out of the park and the Details and Lace team was a delight to work with. Our guests continue to rave about how spectacular the wedding was. Thank you, Details and Lace for an awesome job.

    Parent of bride

    Melanie was absolutely amazing through the entire process. She had great knowledge on planning, creative ideas to help make it even more special and managing tough situations that arose along the way.
    Her professionalism and attention to every detail allowed us to have an absolutely perfect wedding day! She was remained focused at every turn.
    She followed up on questions with clarity and promptness.
    As a parent of the bride, we could not have asked for anything better!

    Amazing wedding planner!

    Melanie and her team are absolutely wonderful! I can not recommend her enough as a wedding planner. She is kind, thoughtful, and incredibly perceptive. She is so knowledgeable and truly puts her client first. She spent the time and energy to understand what everyone wanted for the big day and made sure it happened. I really just can't say enough good things about working with her. She goes above and beyond.

    Couldn't have done it without them!

    Melanie and Michaela were absolutely incredible. They were able to help us stay grounded and be more efficient in planning (even when things got really stressful) and made us feel at ease during the big day. I don't know how we could have gotten through everything without them. I would recommend them to absolutely everyone! They are kind, trustworthy people, and the best at what they do!

    Can't Recommend Enough

    Choosing to work with Details & Lace and Melanie was one of the best decisions we made in the entire wedding planning process. She was so helpful in terms of coordinating with our vendors, ensuring we were prepared, and helping us think of things to put on our to-do list that made our wedding day run more seamlessly or that we might have otherwise forgotten. Where Melanie really shined, though, was on the day-of. She made sure our wedding day was entirely about us - we didn't need to be thinking about logistics at all, as Melanie was always on top of it. She went above and beyond to ensure that our expectations were not only met but were blown out of the water. We truly had the best day of our lives because of Melanie - with her help we could focus on being present with our family and friends and with each other. We had some particular requests that we wanted accommodated and Melanie made sure that nothing was forgotten, she helped manage a range of different personalities - from vendors to family to everyone in between. I also have mobility issues that made our wedding a particular challenge to execute, but Melanie thought through every detail and was always ready with an idea, a backup idea, and a backup to that idea. The most special thing about Melanie is really just who she is as a person. There is no request too big, no challenge that can't be met, and no obstacle that can't be conquered. We feel so fortunate to have gotten to work with her, and also to have gotten to know her on a personal level and share in this special phase of our lives with her. She helped calm us all the way and ensured us the day would be seamless, and thanks to her, it really was. Thank you for everything, Melanie! We would recommend Details and Lace in a heartbeat.

    Melanie was absolutely wonderful!

    Melanie at Details and Lace is a huge reason for why our wedding was so perfect. She, along with Michaela, helped keep everything on time and made sure the day ran smoothly. My husband and I were both incredibly impressed by her professionalism and also her willingness to help with last minute tasks that popped up on Friday and Saturday. Melanie is not only professional, but also incredibly kind. She has a calming presence that is so wonderful not only during the wedding weekend itself, but in vendor calls/meetings leading up to the event. I would 100% recommend working with Melanie!

    Details and Lace, LLC's reply:

    Mary Kate,

    Thank you so much for your kind words. It was a pleasure to work with you, Hudson, and your families. We wish you and Hudson all the happiness! ~ Melanie

    Wedding of my dreams!

    Melanie was such a pivotal necessity for our wedding! She truly was a life saver and made planning a wedding as easy as it gets. I live in Northern Virginia and work full time and am in grad school at the same time, so my schedule was hectic and chaotic as it is, especially with coordinating a wedding two hours away from where you live! She kept me on track and on schedule with picking vendors on time, making decisions on details, and giving me honest advice. I truly felt like I could be my absolute true self around her, and by the wedding, I truly consider her an amazing friend! She is so honest and tells you the stuff you didn’t even think you needed to know about a wedding. Day of the wedding, she handled any little issue with ease, so much so that I didn’t even realize issues happened until the next day! She is truly an incredible human and I would highly recommend her to anyone who asks!

    You may think you don't, but you need Melanie & Michaela

    I've had the pleasure of seeing Melanie & Michaela in action at two weddings, one of them being my own. When I initially got engaged, I was sure I didn't need a planner. My best friend/Maid of Honor has helped coordinate several other weddings and I felt she could handle it. But after seeing Melanie & Michaela at another wedding, I was immediately convinced I needed them at mine. From the first conversation, they make you feel like a part of the family. Melanie is available via email or text to answer questions, review contracts, make recommendations, or just talk you off a ledge because it's all too overwhelming. You're never bothering them - they are your support system from the time they sign on to even after the wedding. The month and day of, they are in true Wonder Woman form, making sure everything happens the way it's supposed to. Making sure other vendors don't screw up. Catching mistakes that you wouldn't even know to look for. Taking over all final details so you can relax. Navigating and quashing family drama. My entire day they not only ran all coordination, but they checked on me every hour (at least) to make sure I had everything I needed. They made my day the best it could possibly be. They love what they do and it's obvious in every single thing they do. I cannot recommend them highly enough, you will be so glad you booked them, trust me.

    Above and Beyond Excellence!!

    If you’re looking for a wedding coordinator, look no further! Melanie with Details and Lace is more than exceptional. Her dedication and hard work made our day more than incredible. From fixing a bridesmaid’s broken shoe to taking our vision and making it a reality, Melanie is the best thing you can invest in for your wedding day! She even went as far as to giving me the jacket off of her own back when I got cold during pictures. Our guests were also so impressed by Melanie’s hard work and bubbly personality. My husband and I would highly recommend Melanie with Details and Lace to anyone planning their big day!

    Thank you Details and Lace for making our wedding AMAZING!

    As you likely already know, getting married can get expensive!! My advice is this: HIRE. A. WEDDING. COORDINATOR. We hired Details and Lace for our wedding and we are SO GLAD WE DID. We were not sure at first if we should hire a wedding coordinator but because we are not from Charlottesville, we ultimately decided we probably needed extra help. After speaking with Melanie from Details and Lace, we knew she was the right person to help us have the perfect wedding. Melanie and Makayla helped us out every step of the way. For example, they gave up their time on a Saturday to meet with us, pick out items at vendors, and strategize for week-of and day-of. Plus, Melanie was always just an email or phone call away. We were so impressed with Melanie’s organization and attention to details. I cannot stress enough how Melanie and Makayla CRUSHED IT on out wedding day. You just don’t realize how crazy things can get pulling a wedding off until you are in the middle of it. We can not imagine how we would have pulled the wedding day off without Details and Lace!

    Melanie and her team are the best!! No need to look elsewhere

    You must use Melanie and her team if you need help with wedding planning. SHE IS THE BEST! After my wedding, so many of my friends and family told me how amazing she was and how on the ball she was with literally every detail. You can put all your trust in her and her team. My wedding day was seamless and I did not have to worry about anything (and I’m usually a worry wort) Her and her team are super organized and they know how to make your vision come together! I 100% recommend them!!

    Amazing to work with!

    Melanie and her team made my wedding day go seamless while also feeling like they were a part of the family! So personable and so easy to work with. I would recommend her to any bride-to-be. Some of my bridesmaids even said once they get engaged, they are calling Melanie! If you hire Details and Lace for your wedding day, rest assured that you will be taken care of :)

    Details and Lace, LLC's reply:

    Thank you Savannah! Your wedding day was an absolute joy and we are so grateful we could be a part of it. I do hope we can assist your bridesmaids in the future. You have a fabulous group of friends and family. Hope to see you soon! Melanie

    Outstanding! You will not regret!!!

    My husband and I knew nothing about planning a wedding! Our first move was to find a wedding planner. After meeting with Melanie, we decided she was the perfect fit for us. Melanie and Michaela were there with us the entire way! We told her exactly what we wanted, and she did everything to make it happen! We did the partial planning, but she was available throughout our entire engagement. On the actual wedding weekend, she went above and beyond. I was a little overwhelmed the week of with everything going on, and she helped calm my nerves and reassure me that everything would be okay! She also made sure that we were taking care of ourselves all day! She offered to bring us lunch, she reminded us to hydrate (it was hot!) during the reception she and Michaela made sure we got a chance to eat! Her number one goal was to ensure the process was fun and easy - and it absolutely was! I would recommend her to EVERYONE!!! Thank you Melanie for giving us our perfect day.

    Fantastic wedding planner - No need to look elsewhere

    We found Melanie Scott (Details and Lace) through Wedding Wire for my daughter's wedding. We live out of town so needed help finding vendors and venues. We started with Melanie and was not disappointed. She helped us pull together an A team of vendors. She is very responsive, sweet and fun. We couldn't have had the most amazing wedding without Melanie and Michaela. Definite 5 star team!!

    Amazing coordinator

    Details and Lace took over my wedding when my original coordinator moved out of the area. They never hesitated and were there to answer all of my questions. They made sure our special day went on without a single hitch! Melanie is awesome!

    Thank you Amber. We enjoyed being a part of your special day! I wish you and Josh all the best.

    Wedding Dream Team

    Details and Lace was hands down one of the best decisions we made regarding our wedding. Melanie was so responsive from the very start and always eager to step in and recommend other vendors and help with any and everything wedding-related. When COVID-19 started altering our wedding plans Melanie and Details and Lace reassured us every step of the way that they would pull off our dream wedding, and they did! Melanie reassured and calmed any nerves, helped problem solve any problems that arose, worked with our venue and vendors to put together our dream wedding. Her team handled the wedding day like champs; calming nerves as needed, repairing dresses, organizing scattered groomsmen, ensuring we had food and water as needed. They helped bring our decorative vision to life, even letting us borrow an aisle runner, table numbers, and battery operated candles! We are so grateful to the Details and Lace team, they helped keep us focused on what truly mattered, getting married, by taking on the rest of the wedding day craziness. If I could given them more than 5 stars I would.

    Hands down best planner ever!

    Melanie was amazing throughout the whole planning process! Despite the pandemic, she made my dream wedding come true!! Everything was put together so beautifully and I couldn't have been happier. She put my mind at ease and COVID did not stop me! My bridemaids complimented how she killed it during the day of the wedding! She especially helped throughout the day soothing the nerves of my most anxious family members, reminding them to just breathe and to not stress about anything since that was her job! She came prepared with what she calls an her "emergency kit" for anything we may have forgotten for the day. Please dont stress over a wedding during this time like I did, everything will be ok! Hire Melanie and she will make your wedding so magical and will be there for you every step of the way! I will certainly be recommending Melanie to all my friends getting married !!!

    We trusted Melanie with everything!

    After cancelling our April wedding, we turned to Details & Lace to help us pull together a local event in a month's time and with all of the social distancing precautions possible. Our wedding was such a success and we can't recommend the entire team highly enough and Melanie especially. Leading up to the wedding we were able to have calls and emails with Melanie and give her a ton of updates and she never missed a single detail. Melanie is so on top of things but also willing to tell you when she doesn't have an answer or doesn't think an idea will work out and she doesn't do the wedding vendor thing where they think every idea and thought you have is the most amazing thing ever (and thank goodness for that!).
    On the day-of, Melanie and her team were there when we needed them but also in the background making sure things went smoothly and we didn't have to worry about anything, including social-distancing issues. Moreover, Melanie and her team were so quick to adjust to all sorts of changes (plus a medical emergency) and we didn't need to know which is just brilliant. The entire team is also professional and kind which is really important when they're part of some of the most intimate and special moments of the day.
    Going into the wedding my husband kept saying "I'm not sure why we need a coordinator for the day, I can do it" but after our wedding when asked who our top vendor was, he said Details and Lace, no question. We just loved working with them!

    The Absolute Best Vendor You Could Hire!

    Hiring Melanie is the best decision you can make for your wedding! From planning our wedding to rescheduling and planning a destination wedding due to covid, Melanie went above and beyond for us at each and every step!

    I consider myself to be very organized and never thought about hiring a coordinator until my venue required it. I was admittedly skeptical at first, but after working with Melanie I am so thankful she was a part of our wedding. My family and friends continue to talk about how amazing she was, and how she made every single thing so incredibly easy for us.

    One of the best parts of working with Melanie, beyond her kind and upbeat personality, is that she is incredibly organized and thorough. She assures that you won't have to worry about a single thing on your wedding day and even ran last minute errands for us to pick up our menus, batteries and candles. She coordinated with our other vendors, kept everything on schedule and setup everything perfectly using her expertise to add decor touches that I loved. My family and I were able to enjoy every moment and I didn't need to assign tasks or have anyone running around doing a single thing. I'm not sure how she does it, but the second we would need anything (or not even realize we needed something), she was right there with it. Additionally, Melanie is in constant communication with you during the entire wedding planning process. She is timely in responses and does not limit the number of calls or meetings like a lot of coordinators that I spoke to before hiring Melanie. She is always willing to offer guidance and assistance when needed, but will also step-back and allow you to take the lead if desired.

    Lastly, we appreciated Melanie's fair and reasonable pricing. After working with her, my husband and I have said multiple times that we are shocked that Melanie doesn't charge more as her services are invaluable. If we did everything again, we would be willing to pay double as she did SO much to make our day a total dream.

    Thank you so much, Melanie. We miss you!

    12/10 Highly recommend. Melanie is a wedding Superwoman!

    We cannot say enough good things about Melanie. Her attention to detail and her genuine care and concern about our wedding really meant the world to us. She was so fantastic throughout this process and really made everything about our experience a total dream come true! Her response to emails and phone calls was prompt, and she made is feel like she was genuinely invested in our wedding day! Her ability to remember things is unsurpassed; her kindness and warm smile was contagious and her enthusiasm made us feel like our wedding wasn't just another job for her. Because of her we were able to relax and give her our trust to handle our day-which went flawlessly thanks to her. Melanie is an absolute rockstar and we highly recommend her to handle all of your wedding needs! She's the best!
