Best day of our lives

Without Amy, our day wouldn’t have been the best day of our lives...Initially we thought we could go about putting our wedding together on our own down in Guadalupe Valley, Mexico and we quickly learned we weren’t getting anywhere fast. We were getting zero response from anyone we tried to get a hold of down there and started to worry our plan wasn’t going to happen. We knew we needed a professional. We found Amy online and had an initial phone call consult and that was pretty much all we needed.

When we first met Amy, I knew she was the one to get it done. She’s straight forward, very direct(which I love), extremely responsive(trust me, my then fiance hit her up constantly and she was ALWAYS so responsive and patient), she is extremely professional, and she just gets SHT DONE! Every step of the way, she was there for us. She kept us calm, minimized our stress levels and gave us the confidence that our day was going to be a success. She made several trips down to Mexico to deal with the different vendors and always gave much needed guidance and advice.

Come to our wedding day, all of her and my wife’s work came to fruition. The day was absolutely PERFECT. Everything flowed as planned and Amy was just as good as it gets. I wouldn’t recommend anyone else. She’s the consummate pro. THANK YOU for making this day the most memorable day of our lives!!

Wedding Planner

Words can not describe how wonderful Amy is and her planning services.
We were in the middle of planning our wedding in Valle de Guadalupe, MX, and we were feeling overwhelmed and like we were not making progress by doing it ourselves. I really did my research and had a couple of phone interviews and we decided on Amy because of her experience in the area, expertise in the wedding industry and her amazing attitude with taking everything over for us so we can actually enjoy the planning process. That’s exactly what happened, as soon as we hired her, she took over the whole process and really took away all of the stress Justin and I were dealing with prior to meeting her. She is extremely professional, very responsive, and always steered us in the right direction for every decision we had to make throughout the planning journey. Our wedding turned out better than we could have ever imagined, truly the best couple days of our lives, all thanks to Amy. Most of guests even said it was the best wedding that they had ever attended and how organized and easy going everything was. None of this would have been possible without Amy’s guidance and planning expertise to make this day so incredible. If you are looking to actually enjoy the process of planning your wedding and have everything be taken care of and flawless, Amy is your girl. We can’t thank her enough 🤍

10/10 would recommend working with First Comes Love!

Working with Amy and the First Comes Love team was easily the best decision I made for the wedding planning process. Amy was with us every step of the wedding planning process - she helped review our venue, all contracts, had amazing vendor recommendations, and was just the best support over the 1.5 yrs of planning. We had monthly calls with her on the books to stay on track leading up to the wedding and was also always available via text/email if we had ad hoc questions for her. The entire planning process was stress-free and we owe it completely to her.
Amy came recommended to me after a friend of mine also partnered with her for their wedding - easy to say that I will be passing along that recommendation to any future friends looking for a wedding planner. Thank you for everything, Amy!
