I'm a wedding photographer who worked with Amy on a wedding during the CO-VID19 pandemic. I cannot say enough about how helpful, attentive, prepared, kind, generous, detail orientated she is. Every step of the way through government mandate, venue changes, and even possible date changes, she regularly communicated with me as a vendor. It was clear she cared for the couple and their special day and wanted to do everything in her power to make their day the absolute best regardless of the situation they found themselves in. If you're looking for a planner and reading reviews, stop now and book. I'd be happy if I never worked with another planner again, and coming from another wedding industry vendor, that's saying something!

Thank you so much, Rachel, for your very generous review. It was amazing to work with vendors like yourself @Kharis Photography during such challenging circumstances. Even when there were so many uncertainties, I knew I could count on you to demonstrate excellent service to our clients. I wish I could give you a 5-star rating in return. I cannot wait to see the photos from Amy & Lee's wedding. I am confident they will be amazing! I look forward to working with you again soon. Anyone looking for a photographer, you can contact Rachel at Kharis Photography through my preferred vendors page.

A+ Wedding Planner!
As an entertainment company that performs at hundreds of weddings per year, we see all kinds of planners and there are some that really stand above all the rest. Amy is one of those. This past week when served up with a global pandemic, without any panic or stress, Amy was able to flip everything on a dime (changing locations, coordinating with vendors and getting them to change up their original plans, changing up guest instructions, etc) all while keeping the bride and groom relaxed and letting them just concentrate on having fun and being able to enjoy the process and their big day. If she can do all of that in the middle of a world crisis just think about what she can do for your wedding! We highly recommend her.

I always enjoy the opportunity to work with ATG Entertainment. Our recent wedding project was no different. You always provide excellent customer service and communication. Brian and the DJ's at ATG Entertainment know how to throw a great party too. The client needs are always considered and executed flawlessly. I cannot wait to work with your company again in the future.

Florist working with planner on mutual wedding
Amy is so incredibly sweet and willing to help. She is very easy to communicate with and get in touch with and responds to emails so promptly. There were so many changes for the wedding we were working together on because of the Corona Virus and she gracefully and calmly handled all of it and helped to put everyone at ease. I am so excited for the next opportunity I will have to work with Amy!

Thank you so much for your kind words. Working with you was such a pleasure. You were so flexible and adaptable when rules and regulations were changing at every turn. The flowers you designed for Amy & Lee's wedding were beautiful! I look forward to working with you again soon. Anyone in need of a floral designer, I highly recommend Jimmy Blooms Floral Design.
