I don't even know where to begin this review because nothing I say about Amanda will do her any justice. When we first started planning our wedding, I wasn't going to hire a wedding planner. I thought we could manage it on our own (even though we live 850 miles away). I definitely didn't think a planner was in our budget. But once we started looking into vendors, we became overwhelmed very quickly. We decided to start looking into planners and Amanda had been recommended to me by a few photographers, so I gave her a call. She and I clicked immediately. I got off the phone and told my fiancé that we had a planner!
Amanda was everything we could have ever asked for and even more. From the moment we started planning our wedding in February 2019, Amanda has been our rock. We live in west Texas and every time we flew into town, she picked us up from the airport and we hit the ground running with appointments she had lined up for us. She always made the most of our time in Nola and we accomplished so much on each planning trip. She checked in with us often when we weren't in town and always made sure we were comfortable with our progress. She also had GREAT recommendations for other vendors and helped so much in the research process.
I knew when I started planning that I didn't have a creative eye and that I would need help pulling our vision together. Amanda not only executed a wedding that was better than anything we ever dreamed of, but all of our guests told us it was the best wedding they'd ever been to as well. The team of vendors Amanda assembled knocked every detail out of the park. Everything was breathtaking.
On the day of the wedding, she had a great timeline created and kept us on a reasonable and easy schedule.
Amanda also made the wedding planning process so easy. I have so many girlfriends that felt major stress during wedding planning and they couldn't wait for their weddings to be over. I never felt this way working with Amanda. I felt calm and prepared and was able to enjoy my wedding day with no stress at all. I was actually sad the planning was over.
Throughout the 13 months of planning, Amanda was so much more than a planner for us. She was a therapist when I needed her to be, a voice of reason when we were being indecisive, a boss during the times we just needed to be told what to do, and most importantly, a good friend. She met and exceeded all of our needs and our wedding wouldn't have been as perfect as it was without her.
Even if you don't think you have a planner in your budget, even if you think you can handle planning a wedding on your own, give Amanda a call. Do yourself and your wedding a favor by giving her a chance. She is hands down the best at what she does and you will never regret hiring her!

Our team has worked with Amanda on many weddings and she is always such a pleasure to work with and amazing at what she does! Her attention to detail is top notch and her communication really stands her a part from many others. We love working with Amanda!!
