The perfect coordinator!

Andrea was such a dream to work with. There isn’t anyone else I would have been about to trust so fully with my big day! She was extremely responsive, understanding, engaged and caring when it came to all my needs. All of my vendors, friends and family loved her as well! She really went above and beyond to make sure that everything went according to plan and the day was absolutely perfect. I would HIGHLY recommend her!!

Best investment for our wedding!

Our wedding was absolutely perfect thanks to AFE!
I wouldn’t have even known where to start with the planning without Andrea’s expertise and knowledge of the industry. She made sure we got everything we wanted for our day and kept everything on track according to the many deadlines there were to meet. Her attention to detail is unmatched! She thought of everything—right down to making sure we had sturdy chairs at the ready for dancing the hora during our reception! (I wouldn’t have thought twice about this but I’m seriously so grateful that she did!) She and her team made sure we didn’t have to lift a finger on the wedding day and could enjoy ourselves while they coordinated with the various vendors and kept things moving according to plan. Hiring AFE is the best thing you can do for yourself when planning for your wedding or any major event!

Best Day of Our Lives!!

Andrea and her team absolutely blew our wedding out of the water. Andra was our day of coordinator and she was amazing. She handled it all and it truly felt like a perfect day with the help of Andra and her team onsite. The goal was that I didn't have to feel stressed or worried and they exceeded that goal! Andrea also recommended the BEST vendors, so of course the day went perfectly! Thanks to the best wedding planner around! You should absolutely choose Andrea Ferris for your wedding!!

Couldn’t Recommend Andrea More

You hire a wedding planner for peace of mind. We got exactly that with Andrea Ferris events. Leading up to our big day, and especially *on* our wedding day, she and her staff took care of everything so seamlessly — and took care of us!

You hire a wedding planner to keep the trains running. Andrea made sure we were on schedule and on budget, and was never too busy to take an extra phone call with questions or concerns.

You hire a wedding planner to take care of what you cannot. People are busy! Andrea took care of *so* much in the background. We really couldn’t have done it all without her. (It would’ve been a much slower and stressful process).

Cannot re commend her more.

Forever thankful for the AFE Team!

We had an absolutely fantastic experience working with AFE! I began working with Andrea about three months before my wedding, and she dove right in to help coordinate the details leading up to the wedding day. Andrea was extremely detail-oriented, organized, and proactive. She was incredibly thoughtful in her approach, and offered balanced recommendations that reflected both her industry experience and her understanding of us as a couple and the vision we had for our day.

I also really appreciated Andrea’s ability to keep us on track throughout the planning process. Wedding planning overlapped with a busy season at work, and she was so skilled at helping me prioritize the right decisions at the right time while taking on the heavy lifting of researching options and coordinating with vendors. She made me feel so supported during what could have been an overwhelming time, and I knew that absolutely nothing would slip through the cracks!

Andrea is also incredibly knowledgeable about the Virginia wedding industry and understands the ins and outs of working with the many venues and vendors. The AFE team partnered closely with our vendors to develop a detailed timeline and ensure the day unfolded exactly as planned. I am so thankful for Andrea’s support, expertise, and partnership throughout the planning process, as well as the AFE Team’s flawless execution of the most beautiful and special day!

Truly the best!

Andrea was truly the best wedding coordinator we could have had for all wedding needs. She kept us on top of everything and was a great source of information for any questions we had. Made herself always available, and if not, she would let us know when she was. The professionalism and organization were top-tier. I would recommend Andrea to everyone who is planning a wedding or an event. One of the best in the business!

Complete Package

Andrea and her team were wonderful. I worked with Andrea to plan a full wedding weekend, inclusive of bridal luncheon, rehearsal dinner, welcome party, ceremony and reception at the Homestead in Hot Springs, VA. She was hands-on for the entire process, beginning in March of 2025 through to our wedding in May of 2026. We could not have done this without her assistance, guidance, and attention to detail. Andrea is a no-brainer and any couple would be lucky to work with her!

Highly Recommend!

Andrea knows everything there is to know when it comes to weddings. She puts you at ease by handling just about everything you could think of. She has good relations with vendors and is well organized. On the day of, her team helps facilitate a smooth day, allowing the bride and groom to simply enjoy the day. We wouldn’t have had it any other way! Would hire her 1000 times over. Very appreciative.
