Best of the Best!!!

We had the great pleasure of working with Elizabeth for our recent wedding at the Cincinnati Club, and we could not be happier with our experience! I sincerely wish we could give her more than five stars!

Throughout the planning process, Elizabeth was always available to address our questions and concerns, ensuring that every detail was meticulously planned and executed perfectly. Her ability to remain calm and composed under pressure was truly impressive. Despite the inevitable stress and an unexpected situation that arose on our wedding day, she handled everything with grace and efficiency, allowing us to remain calm and enjoy our special day.

We put all of our trust in Elizabeth and as expected, she did not disappoint! Our wedding exceeded all of our expectations and much of that is due to our Elizabeth’s hard work and attention to detail. She flawlessly executed every aspect of what we had discussed, creating a beautiful and memorable event that we will cherish forever.

Elizabeth helped with my sister’s wedding, my wedding, and will be doing our family friend’s wedding later this month. She has years of experience under her belt and is your go-to person for matters big and small throughout the planning process! I truly cannot recommend her and her team enough! From start to finish, she was incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and professional.

Thank you, Elizabeth, for helping make all of our wedding dreams come true! You are simply the best, and we feel so blessed to have gained such a sweet friend through this process!

Wonderful Experience!!

Elizabeth and her team truly did such a wonderful job. Her knowledge, communication skills, and attention to detail are just a few of the many things Elizabeth brings to the table. She executed my vision perfectly, and with ease. She never once made me feel stressed, and she really took care of everything under the sun. The entire day turned out exactly how I wanted, and that is all thanks to Elizabeth! If you are in need of a planner, I HIGHLY recommend and can't say enough good things about Elizabeth and her team!!

Best Planner!!

Elizabeth is the best person I could’ve asked for to help with planning/coordination! I did not book a full time planner as I did a lot of the vendors and bookings on my own. I needed someone to help me reel everything together and be there day of. Elizabeth has an amazing package that covers this and does so with a reasonable price. We had meetings basically during the last 4-6 weeks before wedding day getting the timeline and vendors info together. She took the lead from there and it was so peaceful being able to sit back and not worry about these steps. She reached out to each vendor to make sure everything was scheduled appropriately and that all vendors were accounted for and in the loop. She ran our rehearsal and was there all day for wedding day. Anything I needed, she was a call/text away and things were taken care of immediately. From set up, to ceremony, reception, and making sure everything got where it needed to go at the end of the night. Elizabeth and her team were exceptional and I simply cannot thank them enough.

Truly magical thanks to Amity!

I cannot recommend Amity enough. I knew pretty early on in my planning stages that I had no idea what I was doing. Elizabeth and the Amity team came in, helped my organize my thoughts, and patiently listened to us and all of our needs! Elizabeth is SO knowledgeable and helped ease all of my planning anxiety. I truly can’t tell you how helpful she was and how easy she made the whole process, knowing that we were in such capable hands! I would definitely choose them all over again. Also a special thanks to Kate for being so wonderful as a day of coordinator!

Lifesavers!

Oh my gosh, we owe so much to the hard work and expertise of Elizabeth and Heather. We called them last minute to help tie all the loose ends, and they absolutely made our wedding happen. Heather was amazing all day, and made us feel so comfortable. We got to actually enjoy our wedding and spend time with our friends and family. My mom even had a glass of wine and relaxed for the first time maybe ever. I only wish we would have called sooner! Thank you for everything!

Best decision we made!

We were determined to plan our own wedding start to finish, and realized pretty quickly that we were totally in over our heads. We made the decision to hire Amity after a quick call with Elizabeth, during which we literally felt the stress melt off our shoulders. She was readily available throughout the process to answer questions and walk through options, and it made the process so smooth and simple. On our wedding day, her team Ashley and Heather were so professional and stayed ahead of everything. We had the most perfect day, and I couldn't be more thankful for the team at Amity Events. Seriously, book them now.

Excellent Coordinator and Planner

As a Cincinnati Wedding Officiant of more than 25 years and a veteran of over 400 weddings, I know a good coordinator/planner. Elizabeth quickly responds, sweats the details and has great ideas. She makes our job so much easier and gives so much to her couples. You'll be glad you hired Elizabeth.

Irene S. 50th Anniversary Vow Renewal. 01/02/2022

Best Choice We Ever Made!
My husband and I never had a wedding planner for our 1st wedding, 11/25/1971, but 50 years later we hired Elizabeth Amity to help plan our 50th Anniversary Vow Renewal. What a connection we made instantly with Elizabeth in planning our Special Day.
We wanted something completely different than we had for our original wedding 50 years ago. Not the usual wedding at least in the city but on the beach in Florida perhaps. We wanted a Beach Wedding in Cincinnati in January.
Liz made it possible for us to have the wedding of our dreams. She thought of everything from the beach wear and barefoot to the centerpieces in Apothecary Jars filled with sand, sea shells, gold stones, silk yellow roses; silk white baby's breath surrounded by garland with LED lights.
A Beach Wedding is NOT a beach wedding without a Beach Sunset and she even arranged for a projector to select different Beach Sunsets in the background while we renewed our vows.
It was a Perfect DAY, one that you can only dream about. But Our Dreams came TRUE because of of the detail that Liz put into it.
Our Special Day would not have been the same without her. Thank You so much Liz. Our Special Day could not have been more perfect!
We highly recommend Elizabeth Amity Event Planning to help you with Special Celebration, be it your Wedding or a Wedding Vow Renewal. She works so closely with you to make Your day that Special Day you have Always Wanted. Thank You So So Much!

These people know how to plan a party!

Wow! I cannot thank you guys enough for helping us pull off the best day of our lives. I had no idea how much went into a wedding, and when my WIFE (FINALLY) suggested we find a planner to assist, I didn't know what to expect. Liz was there for every question and concern as we reached out to vendors and solidified details. Our day of coordinator, Katie was so detail oriented and made sure everything continued to move, even when a couple trays fell as they were coming in from the kitchen, and they had to scramble to get dishes remade. From big items like picking a band and venue, to the details of making sure we had a PA system for our after party, Liz and her crew delivered, and we're so grateful! Thank you so much for everything! - Ryan and Dana
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
