About
DFK Planning was founded with the belief that every event should be a memorable experience. The vision is to create unique and innovative events that exceed our clients' expectation and leave a lasting impression. In June 2011, I started planning my first event which was a wedding that took place in August 2012. From then on, I have planned milestone birthdays, fundraising galas, celebration galas, and weddings. As a result, my experience with different cultures is vast. I am familiar with Jewish, Ethiopian, Nigerian, and African American wedding customs just to name a few. I have planned/coordinated events in both common and unique venues such as community centers, country club, farms, hotels, art gallery, winery, backyards, waterfront, and restaurant buyouts. I have planned/coordinated events with $0 budget to over $100k budget. My services are guaranteed to enhance your event.

We cannot say enough amazing things about our day-of coordinator, Aggie! We brought her on just two weeks before our wedding, and from the very first conversation she completely put us at ease. She stepped in seamlessly, took charge of all the details, and handled everything with the kind of professionalism and calm presence that every couple hopes for. On the actual wedding day, she was an absolute rock star. Everything ran perfectly, every detail was exactly how we envisioned it, and we were able to fully enjoy ourselves without a single worry. She kept us in great spirits, smoothed out any little hiccups before we even knew they existed, and did it all with a warm, positive attitude. Her organization, communication, and eye for detail are truly unmatched. Beyond that, she is just a wonderful person to be around — the type of professional who makes you feel supported and cared for during such a big, emotional day. Hiring her was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. We are so grateful for her and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, organized, and genuinely invested in making your day as perfect as possible.

Aggie was wonderful to work with. She got to work with our vendors and coordinated all aspects of the wedding logistics. She helped to plan the moving the wedding party by boat. Everything was beautiful and everything went as planned! My daughter and her new husband had a wonderful day as a result of her planning. Thank you and well done Aggie!!

Aggie was an absolute pleasure to work with for my wedding. From start to finish, she was organized, attentive, and genuinely cared about making sure everything went smoothly. Planning a wedding can be stressful, but Aggie helped take so much of that weight off my shoulders. On the day of the wedding, she handled everything behind the scenes seamlessly. She kept everything on schedule, coordinated with vendors, and made sure every detail was in place so I could truly enjoy the moment. If anything went wrong, I didn’t even know about it—which is exactly what you want in a coordinator! What I appreciated most was her calm and professional demeanor. She was always responsive, easy to communicate with, and made me feel confident that I was in good hands. I’m so grateful for all of her hard work and would absolutely recommend Aggie to anyone looking for a reliable and dedicated wedding coordinator.

Hiring Aggie Chongo as our Wedding Day-Of Coordinator was one of the best decisions we made. What we expected to be “day-of” support turned into so much more. From the moment we hired her, Aggie went above and beyond. She created a detailed spreadsheet to track every aspect of our wedding and proactively reached out to our vendors, building relationships and managing communications with my husband and me. We truly felt like we had a partner in the process. Ahead of the wedding, Aggie met with us in person to walk through the space and understand our vision. She asked thoughtful questions and made sure every detail was accounted for. It was a micro-wedding with fewer than 25 guests, held in an intimate space that needed to be flipped from ceremony to dining room. Aggie handled the entire turnover flawlessly—coordinating timing, placing our cake, decorating the table, and ensuring every place setting was exactly as we envisioned. Walking back into the space was such a special moment. She also thoughtfully coordinated with my parents to serve as the day-of point of contact, which allowed me to be fully present and enjoy every moment without distraction. Throughout the process, Aggie was calm, professional, and completely in control. She managed the timeline, coordinated vendors seamlessly, and handled everything behind the scenes with ease. Aggie is more than a coordinator—she is organized, proactive, and a calming presence. Because of her, our wedding day felt effortless and exactly as we had hoped. I can’t recommend her highly enough.
