Work together
I love when couples come for guidance when it comes to navigating the many decisions they need to make when planning their special day. While some brides have dreamed of their wedding day their entire lives, others have no idea where to start! We believe wedding planning should be fun and that is exactly the type of experience we strive to give our couples. We help keep you organized and on task while enjoying the process!
When getting to know our couples, we learn about their history to incorporate traditional and personal details into their wedding. We aim to create an inviting environment for you and your guests to enjoy!
We Provide More Than A Service
Our wedding coordination/management typically begins three to four months prior to your wedding day to help manage the logistics of your event. We will visit your venue, create and distribute your wedding weekend timeline, create your floor plan, communicate and be the point of contact for your vendors, coordinate your rehearsal, and make sure everything goes smoothly on the wedding day!
Wedding coordination
Our partial planning/event consultation package is ideal for the couple that has started planning, but feels they need additional guidance with design and other aspects of their wedding planning. In most cases, the couple has selected their venue and date with potentially a few other key vendors. We'll work together to bring your wedding vision to life and help select remaining vendors.
Partial wedding planning/Event consultation
Our full service planning is ideal for the couple with busy schedules or those feeling unsure of the wedding planning process. We step in from the very beginning to help bring your wedding day vision to life.
We will assist with selecting your dream vendor team, budget management, event design that is unique to you and your style while meeting consistently to ensure everything goes smoothly when the day arrives!

Finding a wedding planner wasn’t easy, but from our first call with Emily Burke, I knew she was the one! We hired Emily for our daughter’s wedding at Dover Hall in Manakin Sabot, VA. After the call, we were thrilled and immediately felt at ease with her. Emily understood exactly what we wanted and made the whole process stress-free. On our daughter’s wedding day, she was completely relaxed, as Emily and her team had everything perfectly under control. If you’re looking for a wedding planner who focuses on making your experience fun, pleasant, and stress-free, Emily Burke from Water and Wine is the best!

Emily is AMAZING!!! During the most overwhelming time of our lives, she was able to make sense and take control of the craziness. Once I showed and explained to her what I wanted she seamlessly pulled it all together leaving us with the most perfect day imaginable (I swear she was even able to hold off the rain!). Prepared, organized, and VERY detail oriented are just a few of her incredible attributes. She is also the absolute the sweetest person I've ever had the pleasure of working with. So if you are looking for a wedding planner/day of coordinator Emily at Water & Wine VA is your girl!

Emily was AMAZING!!! She kept us all on track, anticipated things we didn’t, and was just overall fabulous. Can’t recommend her highly enough! The day wouldn’t have gone as smoothly and magically without her!
