Wells Wedding

From our very first conversation, Andrea brought a sense of calm and confidence that immediately put me at ease. Her experience, warmth and guidance were truly invaluable throughout the entire journey. She was a steady and reassuring presence every step of the way, handling every situation and detail with such grace and care. Andrea genuinely listened and worked tirelessly to bring my daughter's dreams to life, treating them as if they were her own. I honestly cannot imagine navigating the past year without her support. Her communication with everyone involved was seamless, and working with her was an absolute joy - she is someone I now consider a friend. The wedding turned out absolutely beautiful, and I cannot imagine anyone more talented, dedicated, or caring than Andrea. She is simply exceptional at what she does. We also used her husband Ben as the officiant and what a team they are! They are generous, problem solvers that are doing what they love. Being 7 hours from home, having someone that is that invested sure puts your mind at ease. Every detail that we wanted, Andrea worked extra hard to make sure my daughter got what she wanted. It was truly an exceptional day and we can't thank her enough!

Andrea at Unique Events is Amazing!

Andrea Boykin from Unique Events was a godsend. We hired Andrea to help us coordinate my daughter’s rehearsal and wedding. She was hardworking, dedicated, experienced, and caring. She provided insightful guidance that helped us achieve my daughter’s and her husband-to-be’s vision for a stunning wedding in the gorgeous mountains of north Georgia.

From early planning assistance to the event itself, her knowledge and expertise shone through, culminating in the seamless, fun, and beautiful wedding we envisioned. Her experience in the local area helped point us to top-notch vendors. Since we are not from the area, this was particularly appreciated. When we came to truly value Andrea (more than words can adequately convey) was when the unspeakable happened. With no forewarning, our original venue sent us an email (an email!!) informing us that the property had been sold, and they would NOT honor our venue contract. This unexpected email was received less than 80 days before the wedding! Every bride’s, groom’s and parent’s absolute worst nightmare.

The first person we reached out to was Andrea. She made herself instantly available and quickly provided us a list of other potential venues in the area. Her rapid response enabled us to pivot quickly. We were able to visit and select another venue within a week’s time and proceed with the wedding as originally scheduled with the wonderful new venue. As you can tell from the photos, the wedding and venue were absolutely stunning.

Andrea coordinated the entire rehearsal like the pro that she is, answering everyone’s questions and anticipating those no one thought to ask. She showed up the next day ready for action. I never saw her stop moving or sit the entire day, which began many hours before the actual ceremony. She made sure everything was handled from start to finish, from ensuring that the ceremony and reception site were beautifully arranged to securing the gifts and our personal items before she left. She coordinated with all of the vendors behind the scenes, ensuring that each of their parts was completed on time and per our vision. Whatever challenge came her way, she handled it perfectly, always maintaining a calm, cool, and cheerful demeanor – and without us having to worry or lift a finger. She is the ultimate professional.

We are so very thankful to Andrea for all her efforts and kindness in making our event exactly what we hoped. If you want to have a beautiful, unforgettable, stress-free wedding, contact Andrea at Unique Events today. You’ll be so happy you did!

A Perfect Ceremony Thanks to Ben!

We hired Ben to officiate our wedding, and the experience was absolutely amazing. From the start, both he and Andrea were incredibly professional, going above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. When our wedding had to be postponed due to Hurricane Helene, Ben was very understanding and worked with us to reschedule without any stress or complications. On the big day, he made us feel completely at ease and helped create a warm, meaningful ceremony. Our families absolutely loved him! We’re so grateful for his presence on our special day and would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for an officiant who truly cares about making your celebration unforgettable.

Best of the best!

Andrea, owner of Unique Events, is hands down the best wedding planner I’ve worked with! She is extremely organized and has a tremendous amount of experience! If you hire her, you are guaranteed that she will work tirelessly to give you the best wedding day you could ever hope for. Every single detail will be thought out well before the wedding day so that you literally get to show up and live in the moment with no concerns except walking down the aisle.

She has learned from experience who the best wedding professionals are and who she can depend on to make the perfect team!

I can’t recommend Andrea strongly enough…she is AMAZING!!!

Love working with Andrea and Unique Events

I manage events at Crane Creek Vineyards, a wedding, venue, and it is so refreshing to work with a professional wedding planner like Andrea Boykin!
Andrea is organized, ahead of the curve, and never misses a step. Should a challenge arise, she's innovative and figures out a solution. I especially love when she is in charge of the decor and florals, because I know that no detail will be missed and everything will be perfect!

Amazing wedding coordination and officiating services!

Andrea and Ben were both incredible and worth every penny for our wedding! They were both extremely communicative, kind, and helpful for us, since we didn't know what we were doing half the time.

Ben did a great job officiating our wedding, and listened to all of our concerns and requests for the ceremony. Andrea made the month before our wedding a breeze and handled everything from setup, vendor communication, and timeline to perfection!!

In addition to all of this, our wedding happened to be on the night of their anniversary, but they still gave us plenty of focus and attention, I cannot recommend them enough!

Awesome coordinator!!!

Andrea was great to work with. We face the challenge of planning our wedding from out of town, Andrea was a huge help with everything. She helped take our vision of what we wanted our wedding to be and helped make it a reality.
We can’t say enough about how great she was to work with.

Amazing Wedding Day at Sugarboo Farms

Andrea and her team are the ABSOLUTE BEST. Even though we were planning a somewhat smaller and more informal affair, Andrea was a godsend. Leading up to the day Andrea's kind, patient, and detail-oriented communication was amazing. Importantly, she held space for us to be who we are and not pressure us to go in any direction throughout our planing- I cannot overstate how lovely that is. Honestly one of my favorite photos from the wedding was of Andrea leaning into our bird theme by wearing a feather headband!

I did not have to make a single decision or give any direction on our wedding day. I'm telling you- GODSEND. We had no idea if anything went wrong- you can't ask for anything more than that (and we had a caterer, band, DJ and bar set up in a somewhat challenging venue! We found out later that they had to completely pivot where the food was being cooked and set up). At one point Andrea had to kindly redirect the band when they started playing the wrong genre music that we had requested- woof. We were able to simply relax and enjoy the day with our loved ones. We also used her bar services and recommended DJ (who was so patient with our very specific requests) and everything was just perfect- everyone was so friendly, kind, and professional. Andrea also checked in on us throughout the evening and made sure we were fed and had drinks!

Even if you think project management and/or event planning are your strong suits, I'm telling you- HIRE ANDREA AND UNIQUE EVENTS. You don't need to be a hero on your wedding day.

Absolutely Amazing Event

Ben and Andrea were absolutely fabulous to work with and made us feel at ease immediately! They ensured that my wedding was a complete a success. It's difficult to plan a destination wedding, not knowing or really understanding what you're walking into. They had a full knowledge of the area, were able to provide incredible guidance yet valued our input and originality. We had Zoom meetings to hammer out any details and were in constant communication via email. They had a fantastic rapport with the venue staff and people around them! They provided an invaluable service for us! We appreciate them so much!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
