Meet Sarah — Virginia Wedding Planner

At Sarah Collins Events, every celebration is crafted with care, intention, and heart. Named in honor of my daughter, the name “Collins” is a daily reminder of why I do what I do—to create meaningful moments that last a lifetime.

A Virginia-based wedding planner who believes that the best celebrations are built on intention. Every wedding I plan begins with a simple goal — to help you feel calm, confident, and fully present on one of the most meaningful days of your life.

With nearly a decade in the wedding industry — from vineyard celebrations in Charlottesville to elegant hotel receptions in D.C. — I bring both design expertise and logistical know-how to every event. My approach blends creative storytelling with meticulous planning, so your day feels effortless, elevated, and entirely you.


My Story

I grew up in Virginia and found my way into weddings while interning for one of the region’s top planners. What began as an internship quickly became a lifelong calling — one that combines creativity, organization, and connection.
After several years planning weddings across California and the East Coast, I returned home to launch Sarah Collins Events, serving couples throughout Northern Virginia, Richmond, Fredericksburg, and Washington, D.C.

Each event I plan reflects both where I come from and what I value most — hospitality, authenticity, and beauty rooted in simplicity.

For Couples Who…

  • Value meaningful design and personal touches over trends

  • Want an expert to manage the details so they can enjoy the celebration

  • Appreciate a collaborative, organized, and caring planning experience

    If that sounds like you, we’re a perfect match!

Let’s Begin the Journey!

Whether you’re envisioning a romantic vineyard wedding, a chic city celebration, or an intimate backyard gathering, I’d love to help you bring it to life.
