Superstar Planner + Designer Genius!

Hiring Amy of Hawthorne & Poppy was our best decision in wedding planning! She handled planning our wedding reception as well as 2 pre-wedding events and a post-wedding brunch. Each event had it's own personality but still cohesive; building on each other to reach the main event. Each event captured who we were as a couple and what we wanted for our guests -- amazing food, great atmosphere, personalized details, and a ton of fun. We are so very happy with how our wedding turned out and it's really because of Amy's work!

We were planning a destination wedding in Austin and from our first meeting with Amy, knew she was the right partner for this project. She was extremely resourceful and responsive; she understood us and our vision from the first meeting; and led us through the all the ups and downs of wedding planning. She helped us build a vendor team that was creative and willing to push boundaries with us to creative a modern and unique reception design. She understood that our number one priority was our guests and their experience. She was constantly coming up with new ideas or new concepts that helped us meet our priorities and goals. She was a resource to us and our families; always open to provide recommendations, answer questions, or give her perspective. From the very beginning we knew she was someone we could trust. On top of all of this, she was down to earth and practical; making even the toughest topics or conversations approachable. Overall she was just awesome in every way!

We're so lucky to have worked with Amy and to be able to call her a friend! She has such creative ideas and is wiling to think outside the box. If you're looking for a true designer, hire her! You will not regret this choice!

Amy Wilson Kuntz
Amy Wilson Kuntz
Owner, Lead Planner & Designer

Hi! My name is Amy, but I also answer to Ames, Mommy, and Babe. I am fortunate to design and plan personalized events for a living. My favorite clients are busy professionals with exciting social lives who need help executing a beautiful, stylish, carefully planned gathering.

At some point in our process together, you will hear me gush about how much I love Italy; the country, the people, the architecture, and tiramisu. They have collectively taken up a one-bedroom residence in my heart. The rest of my heart's home belongs to my husband, our fearless two-year-old daughter, two Labrador brothers named Little Bear and Shadow Cat, and soul music.

The name for Hawthorne & Poppy Events was taken from the flowers of my parents' home states, Missouri and California. I desire my brand to represent what I love most about special occasions: honoring friends and family and celebrating with both traditional and modern elements.

I chose this profession because I care deeply about serving others. I value the process of being authentic and real with my clients to help them achieve their ideal vision as we create an unforgettable event together.

We are all unique with distinctive qualities, and I strive for every one of my designs to reflect each client's individuality. When your guests walk in on the big day, what is the first thing you want to hear them say? "This is so (fill in the blank)!" Whatever your fill in the blank might be, I can get you there!
