WHAT SETS US APART?
Experience, Creative Eye, And Attention To Detail.
Wonderful to e-meet! I’m Colleen…
I am a native Richmonder that LOVES love, my two children, history, and jelly beans with Coke Zero. I feel that my style is diverse, but I am also a creature of habit. Constantly seeking out fresh experiences, I revel in the thrill of discovery while remaining grounded in the familiarity of beloved traditions. A quick scroll through my phone reveals a mosaic of eclectic music selections that mirror the unique tastes of our clients, snapshots brimming with wisdom-worthy moments, cherished memories with my children, and a rich tapestry of weddings we've orchestrated with love since 2002.
My mantra: Anything is possible with an extreme amount of hard work - and love, of course!

kind words
“Colleen of CCS has knowledge, experience and sass that helped make our wedding day an absolute dream come true. I remember speaking with Colleen before we booked with her and she told us she could make our wedding day what we want WITHIN OUR BUDGET and she kept to her word. She had props that we used and went above and beyond every step of the way. Her expertise and honesty helped us choose things that were worth keeping or removing to stick with our firm budget and we were so fortunate for that. She sorted through dessert fiascos (without me even knowing just to save me the stress!) She (and her team) even loaded our cars at the end of our wedding night so neither us or our family members would have to worry about it and could continue to enjoy our night. Our family members were so impressed with Colleen and her entire CCS team for each and every one of their efforts. And the results absolutely showed on our wedding day (through not one, but even TWO ceremonies). Colleen, we are so incredibly thankful for you. You were easily the best decision in our wedding planning process.”
