Working Women: Elizabeth Duncan Events

Earlier today I posted about my wonderful weekend in Stone Harbor, NJ while working for my friend Elizabeth. I am back for Wedding Wednesday to feature a little bit more about that fabulous friend and her business, Elizabeth Duncan Events. 

I have been working with Elizabeth for over six years as a day of staff assistant on site at weddings, and have been able to see first hand what a wonderful planner she truly is! Elizabeth has been working in the event planning business for twelve years. About two years ago she went out on her own with Elizabeth Duncan Events and is planning some gorgeous events month after month. Elizabeth never forgets a detail to the wedding weekend! From a love of entertaining, traveling and hospitality, Elizabeth finds a way to create beautiful events for her clients. 

I remember when Elizabeth described the French Vintage themed engagement party she was planning, she was beyond excited! Hiring a planner that is beyond delighted and a little giddy to share the ideas with her friends, means she is truly pouring her heart into the event.

I was lucky to be a part of the staff at this very DC Capitol wedding that took place on a rooftop downtown. From the ceremony at the National Cathedral to the timing and coordination of the reception, it was an affair to remember! 

This old world elegant wedding had a Sylvia Weinstock cake to top off the night and the orchestration of delivering the cake from NYC 

was done by Elizabeth and the team calmly and beautifully.

Lovely details like an escort card table set up on a vintage ladder is perfect example of the creative touches that a planner like Elizabeth can add to your day. Elizabeth grew up near Annapolis and travels to the shore often to coordinate weddings. 

DC, NJ, Florida, NYC, Europe and beyond, she is available for travel.

If you are a DC bride looking for a beautiful planner to work with, she's a delight.
