Simply unmatched - Service, vision and creativity

I’m not sure where to begin, Amy and her team are simply unmatched. I came into this wedding thinking it would be silly to have or need a wedding planner for a 150-ish person wedding. Me being a project manger in my professional career along with being an insanely type A personality should’ve been enough! I look back and there is no way our wedding could’ve been as stress free and spectacular without Amy’s vision, expertise and wonderful personality. While I was very go with the flow on design (which is not typical of me!) I knew exactly what I wanted the day to be like, and she delivered and then some.

Amy will be as hands on or as hands off as you want. She handled much of our vendor negotiations and relationships which in it of itself was a HUGE and pretty annoying task. When you pick a venue that has nothing there other than the place to get married you don’t think about the 7+ vendors you’ll need to contract and work with. Add covid to be mix and we had a downright logistics nightmare!

My parents, the amazing people who paid for our wedding, live 6 hours away from me and our venue. Amy didn’t let that stop her from also putting their mind at ease and having them involved every step of the way. My parents actually only met her in person one other time before the wedding. She made it that easy.

Amy also did our florals, which dealing with 7+ vendors it was nice to get two lumped together! They were unbelievable. Just simply gorgeous. We gave her a budget and some simple suggestions and BAM vision came to life.

As I mentioned, I was at first skeptical and questioning the cost. Was it worth it? 1000%. Was the cost justified? 1000%. This is definitely an investment but my husband and my only job was to show up and be blown away. Mission accomplished. Thank you Amy and team for a spectacular event!

One of the best, without a doubt

I used Amy's floral services for my wedding this past April, and let me tell you, she creates magic. She gave me what I wanted before I even knew that I wanted it. She did so so much with so so little and I appreciate all of the hard work and attention to detail she put in. My guests loved our florals, and I was surprised at how much they became one of my favorite details of the day! I adore Amy and highly recommend her.

Absolutely Amazing!

I have so many good things to say about Amy and Amy Marie Events! We used Amy as both our wedding planner and wedding florist and she completely knocked it out of the park on both! We really could not have planned the wedding we did without her help and expertise. She made planning our wedding so easy and so fun! She is so kind and easy to work with and really understood our vision. When ever people would asked me if I was stressed wedding planning I would always tell them, "Nope! Amy makes it easy!". She has a fantastic eye for design and took everything we suggested and completely elevated it to a level that we couldn't have come close to if we'd tried to plan it ourselves. If you're planning a wedding, just put your trust in Amy and it will come out above and beyond what you could have ever hoped. Not only is she a fantastic planner but she is also a fantastic florist! Her florals took my breath away and are the first thing people mention to me when they talk about my wedding. The flowers she selected looked so fresh and the colors were so lovely. They were truly stunning and looked straight out of a fairy tale. We are so grateful for Amy and her AME team!

Essential to our wedding day!

Amy and her team were SO amazing. We chose to do a partial planning package (3 months up to wedding + day of) as well as florals with Amy. Although I had already booked the big things and done the groundwork for our wedding, Amy came in at 3 months until the wedding and was an absolute life saver. She helped to pull together the final details, some of which I probably would've forgotten or not thought of at all, as well as created the final design of everthing based on a few pictures and thoughts I gave her. She's so creative and great at providing solutions, and kept us excited the entire time. Even if we ran into an issue, rather than dwelling on it, she got right on it and figured out another (better) solution. She has such an eye for beautiful things and truly made everything more beautiful than I could've ever imagined. From the full set up the day of, keeping everything and everyone on schedule, keeping us happy and also dealing with issues I wasn't even aware of -- Amy and her team were the PERFECT choice. The flowers were such a priority for me and she exceeded my expectations BY FAR. To Amy and her team, thank you from the bottom of our hearts forever and ever! We couldn't have done any of it without you.

Incredible Service From An Organizer Who Cares

Amy with Amy Marie Events is the type of wedding coordinator everyone wished that could have. She's responsive, has a great eye for both the big picture and the details, and knows how to make the wedding party feel at ease by conveying complete control of the event. If you can, getting florals with her is an easy way to make your event look jaw-droppingly beautiful. We couldn't have been more pleased to have her help organize our big day and we can guarantee that she will impress you too!

There’s no one better or as budget friendly

The florist for me was the hardest thing to find. I Love flowers and greenery and everything about them so I was a pretty particular about how I wanted my florals to look the day of my wedding. I looked for months sifting through recommendations from friends family google and even wedding expos meeting with tons of people and they all either were out of budget or weren’t seeming to understand what I was asking for. Amy Marie events was literally the answer to my prayers. She was AMAZING! Both in her delivery and professionalism but especially just in overall working with her. She’s cares about what you want and will do everything she can to make sure you get it. She was honestly the answer to my prayers and I’m so glad we found her.

Superhero wedding vendor!

Amy is absolutely incredible, and totally came through for my last-minute elopement!! With less than A WEEK, she pulled together a beautiful elopement setting, with blankets and treats and incredible flower arrangements. Not only was everything stunning, Amy really went above and beyond to secure an gorgeous spot along the river for our teeny ceremony. Hiring her was one of the best decisions we made!

Amy Marie Events

Amy is the best! She was very receptive to all ideas and great with integrating everything I wanted. I had to postpone my wedding back in April, and Amy worked with me to make a beautiful bouquet for the quick elopement we did and continued to work with me when we held our big ceremony in October. Her floral designs are amazing and she is an impeccable planner! I can't recommend her enough!

The best wedding designer/planner turned friend!

I don’t know where to start! I booked Amy about two years before we got married. I enjoyed working with her the entire time and I knew I could completely trust her style and recommendations. Even my parents enjoyed and valued Amy’s opinions and advice. Amy always goes above and beyond, her creativity is breath taking and she works so hard to pay attention to details. I highly recommend booking Amy for your event, it even saved us money in the end because of the vendor discounting she gets. She was a blessing to all of us during a hard time while planning a wedding during COVID. Now, I consider Amy and her husband, Josh friends. We are so grateful for all the hard work she put into making our day special.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
