Kristina R. Sent on 10/02/2020The. Best. Ever.
I can't even begin to express how amazing Aimee is. When I started planning our wedding last fall, I knew I needed a day-of coordinator but wasn't expecting too much because previous weddings I've been to. After my first phone call with Aimee, I knew A. Griffin Events would exceed our expectations. She provided so many useful planning and organizing materials to help make sure I got everything done that I needed to. She was available as much as I needed, throughout our entire planning process and really was my emotional support when we had to make the difficult decision of cancelling or postponing our wedding. I wouldn't have been able to handle the pandemic and wedding planning without her and for that I am forever grateful!
We ended up rescheduling our wedding and downsizing in a major way. Aimee helped turn this new plan we had into an outdoor dream. I didn't have to worry about a single thing on our wedding day. Aimee and Veronica handled every single detail starting from the early morning until the bar closed down. One thing that all of the previous reviews have in common is that Aimee turns into a friend when you work with her and not working with her is probably the saddest part about our wedding being over! I wish I could give more stars to emphasize how amazing she is!! -

There are not enough words! ❤️
Hiring A. Griffin Events was hands down the best choice my husband and I could have made. From the very beginning...I mean very beginning (I hired Aimee and Jorian less than one week after we got engaged!) they made the process easy and low stress. I had one phone interview with them and knew it was a perfect match.
We were lucky enough to have them with us for our entire planning process. From venue visits, photographer interviews, to cost comparisons on hair and make up artists. They really went above and beyond. As a person who had trouble deciding on things it wasn’t great to have them. They never put pressure on me to make a choice just to make one, they truly wanted me to be happy and make the best decision for myself and my husband. Jorian also went with me to every dress fitting which to be honest was really above and beyond. She knew my mother lived 3,000 miles away and was willing to give me that support.
But by far the best part of hiring them was not all the spread sheets and phone calls they made for us...it was the friendship we built along the way. We love Aimee and Jorian so much! ❤️

Jeremy R. Sent on 06/29/2019Our Wedding Actually Was Perfect, All Thanks to A. Griffin Events
Our wedding was astonishing. Legitimately awe inspiring. We still can’t believe it was real. If not for A. Griffin Events it never could have been. Not even close. I cannot recommend or praise them highly enough. Working with them was such a dream.
We had chemistry with Aimee from the first call. It was like talking to your best friend. She invited us to dinner to meet with her and her lease designer, Jorian.
We had already talked to nearly a dozen event planners and weren’t excited about any. When we met with Aimee and Jorian we knew right away. We intended to take some time to consider our options, but we were so excited to work with them that we barely made it back to our car before calling to confirm. It was such an easy decision.
They took care of EVERYTHING. We were able to let go of our stress, relax, and actually enjoy the experience. They were so understanding and patient, creative, thorough and well organized. Positively wonderful throughout the whole process. Everything was always well under control.
They’re a joy to be around and we looked forward to the next time we’d see them (which was often). They were right there with us, every step of the way. It was such a comfort and made all the difference in the world. We never felt lost or overwhelmed.
They were committed to getting to know us and understanding what it was we really wanted, even when we didn’t. Their instincts were spot on. Every facet ended up being the perfect fit.
We didn’t make things easy and with any other event planners it would have been a nightmare for everyone involved. We were hard to please, had extremely (even unreasonably) high expectations and were the worst procrastinators. But, it never even phased them. They never missed a step and were never anything but the delightful, calming, uplifting, and enjoyable presence they had been from the start. They went to the ends of the earth to make even our most unrealistic, and impossible dreams a reality. Even those beyond our wildest expectations.
One such example (of which there are many); while touring the perfect venue (high had been hand picked by either Aimee or Jorian or both), I mentioned how “in a perfect world” I could picture our favorite band playing over the dance floor from a stage above the bar. I riffed about how maybe they would play that song of theirs that is also ‘our song‘ while we danced our first dance below.
I continued to talk Jorian’s ear off. Carried away and indulging the hypothetical, I went on to describe how I envisioned the rest of the performance. How they’d kick the party into high gear by playing that song everybody knows from that movie everyone loves.
It wasn’t realistic but it was fun to think about.
A few days later we get a call. They pulled some strings and somehow found a way to reach the band’s management. Jorian made such a strong case that she convinced them to take the idea to the band.
Whatever it was that she said, it worked. Not only were they interested, they were excited about idea. I couldn’t believe it.
From there they navigated all the details and complexities necessary to pull something like that off. Bonafide rockstars playing a private concert at a wedding in the grand lobby of a landmark DC theatre. They pulled it off without a hitch, and that memory is just one of many from that day that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. It truly was the experience of a lifetime and we owe it all to A. Griffin Events. -

Laura Sent on 10/08/2018Aimee Griffin and her team created a fantastic wedding experience for my family and friends during two separate celebrations. Even though I live in London, she was always able to find the time to chat with me by Skype or email to answer my questions. She helped me develop my vision for a destination wedding and planned every detail of it with me. Aimee is highly organized and efficient. She created a website for me that enabled my guests from all over the world to make their travel plans to Italy and keep up to date with the events of the wedding weekend in Amalfi. Aimee took the stress out of communicating with the vendors we used both in the States and in Italy. She helped not only secure quotes and contracts, but did the walk-throughs, checked in with each vendor multiple times on the wedding day, and made adjustments in the moment. She is creative, a quick problem-solver, and didn’t get ruffled when last minute changes had to be made for my reception due to rain. Aimee has an eye for wedding design and décor, and will provide an honest opinion about what elements work with different wedding themes and venues. She is patient, and understands the stress a bride faces with so many decisions to make. I highly recommend her as a wedding planner and event coordinator.

Morgan Sent on 02/28/2018Hiring Aimee was the best choice we could have made planning our wedding. Not only is she amazing at what she does, she truly became a friend during the planning process. She listened to our vision and helped us to bring it to life better than we ever could have imagined. Her and her team went above and beyond to make sure that our day went perfectly. We truly could not have done it without her. Thank you Aimee (and your amazing team!)

Ayanah Sent on 10/28/2017A. Griffin Events is amazing! I was planning an intimate (75) person wedding in Baltimore and had no idea of all that went into a wedding-even a small one. I contacted them about a month before the wedding and Rachel gladly came on and helped me work out each and every little thing. Including details I never planned for. On the day of I got Rachel and Aimee! What a pleasant surprise. Both were great in directing guests, making sure transitions went smoothly and helping me stay on schedule. Rachel also came early (7:00) that morning (my wedding started at 10:30am), to see if I needed anything before heading over to the venue. She was there to answer all questions, made a detailed timeline and helped make my day so special and magical. If you need a coordinator for your special event, look no further than A. Griffin Events. Thanks again for everything!!
