    Run, don’t walk - book Jamie and the absolute team ASAP!

    From the moment we hopped on our first call with Jamie at absolute, we had that instant “this is our person” feeling. She just radiated calm, cool confidence - like, if there were a dozen questions flying at her at once, she’d handle them all with a smile while fluffing your veil on the way to the aisle. Throughout the planning process, Jamie and her team were organized, proactive, and somehow made juggling a million moving pieces look easy.

    They handled everything from vendor management to last-minute questions and changes with total grace (and zero drama). The timeline was perfect - we didn’t have to think about a single thing the entire weekend. Jamie and her team were so on top of everything, we truly got to soak it all in and just enjoy - which is exactly what we were hoping for.

    Jamie brought great energy, serious expertise, and made the whole experience feel less like a to-do list and more like planning something magical with an ultra-competent best friend. I'm so sad it’s over…but I know Jamie’s a friend for life. 1000/10 would recommend!

    The most Fun FlAWLESS night ever!

    Words can’t fully capture how much Jamie and the Absolute team cherished Alex Squared. They truly grasped our vision from the start and brought it to life seamlessly. Alex & Alex uber cool vibe was felt the entire day & night..from the amazing food, decor, and the incredible music, the entire day unfolded flawlessly without a single moment of stress. I never once checked the time or worried about anything—my only focus was watching my son and daughter-in-law get married. From day one of planning to the final lights of the night, she was there through it all. Every vendor, every laugh, every tear—she made it perfect. More than a wedding planner, I gained a lifelong friend. Thank you with all our hearts!

    Stop Searching - Hire Absolute

    I am a recent 2024 bride, and I hope this review helps another bride starting her search for a wedding planner. I found Jamie after parting ways with another planner 4 months before my wedding. A friend and former Absolute bride raved about her experience with Jamie, and I can honestly say Jamie and her team are even better than the direct recommendation. Jamie is organized, prompt with communication, detail oriented, and supportive of the style of wedding I dreamed of having. She went above and beyond to find vendors that matched my vision and budget while always giving me straight, honest advice when I needed it. Everything was discussed - even at 2 am when she replied to my emails - down to the napkin. She is rightfully respected in the event industry, and I always felt good when other vendors told me I'm lucky to be working with Absolute. They know, and I now know, that she knows what she's doing. Our flawless wedding weekend reflects her hard work and excellent team, and for as happy as I am with her execution, I am most appreciative for who she is as a person. Jamie doesn't lose sight of what everything is really about, and she won't let you lose sight of it either. Jamie and her team thoughtfully stopped me in the whirlwind of my wedding to just take it in. It was a beautiful moment I'll never forget. It's so simple but so important. She gets it.

    The absolute best ever

    Our wedding day was an absolute dream come true, thanks in large part to the incredible work of our wedding planner, Absolute Event. From the moment we began working with Jamie and her team, we knew we were in the hands of a true professional.

    Absolute left no stone unturned in ensuring that every detail of our day was thoughtfully planned and executed. Their meticulous attention to detail and unwavering dedication to perfection meant that nothing was overlooked. From coordinating vendors to managing timelines, they handled everything with grace and precision.

    On the day of the wedding, I was amazed by how effortless everything felt. Thanks to Jamie, Kimberly, Emily and the entire Absolute team, I didn't have to worry about a single thing. Every aspect of the day was flawlessly orchestrated, allowing me to fully immerse myself in the joy of the moment without a care in the world.

    They have a gift for making the seemingly impossible, possible. They navigated any challenges that arose with ease, always keeping a calm and reassuring demeanor.

    I cannot recommend Absolute highly enough. Their passion for their work shines through in everything they do, and their commitment to making our wedding day perfect was evident every step of the way. If you're looking for a wedding planner who will go above and beyond to make your vision a reality, look no further. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our wedding day the best day of our lives. You are family forever!!

    Wedding Planning

    Jamie and her team provided us exceptional service to the months leading up to our big day. From knowing the best venders, to being on top of emails, and making sure the wedding day went smoothly. I would highly recommend Absolute events as they are good at what they do and take the stress of planning off your shoulders. A+ event planners!!

    Wedding planner extraordinaire!

    100 Stars for Jamie Lipman, the Wedding Planner extraordinaire!!!
    My daughter's special day was nothing short of spectacular and we have several people to thank! Top of the list is absolute, particularly Jamie Lipman and her team of fabulous, warm, and caring women that treated our brides and bridal party like they gave birth to each of them.

    There are no words to describe how I felt as I watched Jamie grab my daughter in a moment of despair and instantly change the world for her (unplanned wardrobe change). It wasn’t an easy task but Jamie made it happen.

    There was nothing too much for her to handle! Jamie went as far as to coordinate a middle of the night McDonald’s run to create a fun parting gift for our guests, which was executed flawlessly. No problems, only solutions from this team!!!

    Jamie and her team made all of Emily and Kayla’s dreams come true. I will never forget all the kindness and attention to every detail. This was our second experience with Jamie and all I can say is “I wish I had another wedding to plan!"

    Thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️❤️❤️❤️!

    Hands down, the absolute best

    It's been about 6 months since our May 28th Miami wedding, and I've only now finished processing what a weekend it was. Jamie and her team made it all possible. I reached out to Jamie 3 months before my wedding date, after having an awful experience with a different planner. With 3 months to go, I had most of my main vendors but was still missing a few bigs ones (music + band) and there were all the loose ends left to be tied up. From our first conversation, I knew Jamie was my girl. She seemed to not only understand who Zach and I are as a couple and as people, but she understood how much this day meant to us and our families. From the minute she stepped in, wedding planning went from stressful to blissful. When I got COVID 2 weeks before the wedding, Jamie helped make all the accommodations necessary, even having our final floral meeting via Zoom. I can't say enough good things about Jamie and her team. She truly lets you be a guest at your own wedding and I was able to enjoy each precious moment of that weekend knowing I was in great hands. Thank you, Jamie and team! We'll never forget any of it.

    Absolutely Amazing!

    Our wedding was absolutely (pun intended) incredible, thanks to Jamie and her team. From the start, Jamie helped to connect us with the most wonderful vendors, and her confidence and warm personality helped us to feel at ease throughout the whole planning process. She always assured us she had everything under control, and we never had to worry if we were missing anything. We really felt Jamie was with us every step of the way. On the day of the wedding, her and her team were beyond incredible. They thought of things we would not have, and made sure everything went seamlessly. I was able to truly enjoy and be present for my wedding day thanks to Jamie and her team. Would not have been able to have such a perfect day without Jamie and the Absolute team, I definitely recommend!

    They are AHmazing!!!!

    Absolute definitely knows what they are doing. I had a previous wedding planner who quit 3 months before my wedding. I called around to other planners. I had THREE DIFFERENT PLANNERS who were busy recommend Jaime and her team. AND I am so happy she was available. Jaime took charge, cleaned everything up. Dotted every "I" and crossed every "T." Her team included Kimberly and Devin and they all went above and beyond to make sure my day was special and I was under no stress. They are great, humble people. 100% professional. They make you feel like family. What I loved the most was they took BTS photos. They captured the candid moments which I cherish and it was a lovely surprise after all was said and done. I hope to work with them for other life events in the future. If you get the chance to have Absolute as your planner, then you are one of the lucky ones!

    If you’re looking for a planner that has literally ABSOLUTEly (pun intended) everything under control - even the things you hadn’t even thought of - Jamie’s your girl. Her and her team of hardworking professional planners were superb. I’m not saying this lightly - I’m very type A myself and literally plan for everything. So for me, hiring a planner was more so I could enjoy my wedding day without worrying about all the millions of things happening at once. But from the second Jamie and her team came on board, there was a very quick realization that I never ever could have done this myself. It was also so comforting to be able to just enjoy knowing everything was in very capable hands. Jamie is so organized and on top of things, but she also has great taste and her advice was 100% on point. Among many other things, she recommended some ideas that I wouldn’t have thought of, but those ideas ended up being a highlight of our wedding day. I highly highly recommend her to brides out there that just want to enjoy their day while everything runs flawlessly. You will not regret it!!!! Our wedding was amazing, the flow was perfect, the dance floor was packed, and I attribute that 100% to Jamie’s hard work coordinating and planning everything to a T.

    Best planner, look no further!

    Can't even put into words how amazing Jamie and her team are. I connected with Jamie from our first phone call - she is so personable and immediately became a part of our family. Planning a wedding from the opposite side of the country was no easy feat, but having her on the ground in Florida made it all so seamless. She is so well-connected in South Florida and every vendor raves about her. My favorite part of wedding weekend was that I didn't have to worry about one thing. I was able to be completely present and it's all thanks to Jamie and her team. Our bridal party still complements me on how well-oiled Jamie and her team were - not missing an inch or a detail. And all of my guests continue to rave about our wedding. It was such a dream and wish I could do it a million times over. Thank you, Absolute. We love you!

    Absolutley memorable

    Jamie owner of The Absolute Event was our wedding planner for our wedding weekend in Key Largo on November 2019. Jamie made me feel incredibly comfortable from the first time I spoke with her on the phone. She was professional, confident, but most importantly very caring. As we worked with Jamie she only continued to impress us. She was calm when dealing with any matter at hand, and always found a solution. Jamie quickly proved to us that she was someone we could trust – she had our backs and would work really hard at executing our vision and dream wedding. Jamie is one of a kind and will be part of our family forever!

    The BEST in the business

    Jamie and her team are the best in the business. From day one with Absolute, we felt completely taken care of and in the best hands possible. Jamie was there for us from beginning to end and honestly, was the reason our wedding day was PERFECT. Her team is incredible. They kept us laughing and relaxed the entire weekend. When we look back on our wedding, we continue to say the reason why it was so special was because of Jamie and her team. If we could do this every year for the rest of our lives with Absolute, we would!

    Great Experience! Perfect night planed by Jamie and the Absolute Team

    I will preface this review by saying that I am a business owner who is extremely attentive to detail, very demanding, and wanted a top notch even while remaining attentive to budget. Moreover, my wife has very elaborate taste. Now with that being said, Jamie and her team delivered a night that we felt was absolutely perfect.

    We started working together about 6 months before the wedding, and I can honestly say I would mssg Jamie ten times a day on some busy days. She never got annoyed or frustrated and was extremely available and always responsive which means everything to me. She delivered incredible vendors to us who were willing to be flexible and work to help bring things within a realistic budget. We didn't just plan a wedding, but it was a destination weekend event, with dinners, lunches, brunches, welcome bags, and countless details. We had an extremely intricate ceremony with a huge wedding party and tons of moving parts. Everything went off great.

    Without rambling any more, I can wholeheartedly recommend Jamie and Absolute without any hesitation at all. She is tough (in a good way), on top of her stuff, doesn't let any small details slip past her, and is incredibly invested in your event. My wife and I most certainly will refer her to friends and family, and will work with her again for future events. Thanks Jamie and co. for everything!

    Jamie and her team are the BOMB!!

    Jamie and her team are the BOMB!! We chose a very difficult venue that had never done a wedding before. From our first meeting with Jamie she gave us the confidence that she and her team could turn this dream of a venue into a reality. Jamie was with us every step of the way and she was always available to deal with my minor freakout moments. The day of the wedding she brought 5 of her staff that were prepared and calm at all times. I even had a crisis with my dress and Mikki was able to cut and sew it in 5 minutes !! (love you Mikki). At the end of the night I was so sad when the absolute team said goodbye. I wish I could have them with me forever!! Thank you Jamie and team for giving us the best night of our lives!!

    2/2/19 wedding

    Jamie did an AMAZING job as our wedding planner. Hiring her shortly after getting engaged was one of the best decisions we made. My husband and I are both busy physicians and there was no way we would plan the wedding of our dreams without Jamie. She did all of the heavy lifting for us and enabled us to have a relaxed stress free wedding planning/wedding day experience. We relied on her for pretty much everything and she handled it flawlessly. Her calm and fun demeanor make her truly unique and wonderful to work with. Additionally, Jamie introduced us to all of our vendors and they were AMAZING. I would not have even known to go to them if it wasn't for her. Jamie loves what she does and she is very dedicated to making your wedding day everything you wanted and more.

    3/16 Wedding

    Where do I even begin? We were recommended Jamie by a friend in the industry. From our first meeting with her, we knew that her personality was one we certainly wanted around us on our wedding day. Her calming nature kept us sane through out the planning process. I (the bride) had a handful of meltdowns and Jamie always answered her phone and took the time to listen no matter the day of the week or time of the day. It also helps that she was able to laugh at some of my ridiculous comments/questions. Some things were left to the end, which made me a little nervous, but Jamie had it all under wraps. She guided us to the most amazing vendors in the business that totally meshed well with us! Our day came together seamlessly thanks to the help of Jamie and her amazing crew that were so on it all freaking day! We didn't have a single thing to worry about day of and we didn't have to assign any family members to be in charge of anything, because there was no stone left unturned by her and her girls. We couldn't imagine having planned with anyone else! We have certainly made a friend for life and we are very thankful for making our night and whole planning process a (relatively) stress free experience!

    Jamie was incredible! She handled every detail with ease and kept us comfortable and calm on the big day. Even after the wedding Jamie has been extremely responsive and professional!

    Jamie was great! She holds true to her word about being just an email, call or text away. She's super responsive and there to make your special day perfect and thoughtless. Grab her!

    My husband and I cannot express how much we love this vendor! Jamie and the Absolute team surpassed any of our wildest expectations for our special day. They went above and beyond for us in every aspect. Jamie was so in tune with what we wanted and every suggestion we never thought of was perfect. Two thumbs up, 5 stars, 10/10... I would recommend them to everyone! You will not be disappointed!!!

    I was recommended to Jamie from another party planner who was busy the weekend of my daughters wedding. I lucked out that Jamie was available and that she took us on even though we were just 2 months shy of a large detailed wedding. We, mob, bride and party planner bonded immediately. She took what we had started and put everything to task. I trusted her and her expertise. To say that the wedding was flawless is an understatement. It was magical, beautiful and I was able to enjoy my daughters wedding without worry. Jamie took what ever worry there was away from all of us! Her staff was just as capable. She comes to the most important day of your daughters life with a smile on her face and the assurance that everything is taken care of and it was. Thank you, thank you thank you......ABSOLUTELY fantastic!

    Jamie is awesome, we live in Austin for work but our wedding was in Miami. our wedding coordinator got switched the month before our wedding which made things stressful. As soon as we hired Jaime to come on board we knew we were in good hands, she got our vision completely and had very similar taste which was a huge plus. Jamie had every aspect of our wedding under control and down to a T which allowed us to ENJOY our wedding while she kept us all on schedule. If you want your wedding to go perfectly, use Jamie :)

    Jamie and her team where really amazing. From every detail, Jamie had it under control at all times. She was very friendly and great to work with. It made all the difference in my wedding. I don’t think it would have been the same without her. I wish I used her service earlier in my wedding planning because of how much it helped with everything. If I could give her 10 star I would. Just simply excellent service in every way!

    BEST PLANNER EVER! I want to thank Jamie Lipman and her team from the bottom of my heart for being the amazing wedding planner and person that she is. She is a truly passionate person and loves what she does and it seriously shows. When my husband and I started planning our wedding, we were in a particular situation; we only had a few weeks in Florida to find and hire all of our vendors before we went back to work in Europe. Stressful! Luckily, we were referred to Jamie. Upon our first phone call with Jamie, she was professional and up front and was able to plan a meeting with us in person within our busy schedule. From the moment we met Jamie, we were confident she was our girl. My husbands biggest concern was "why do we need a planner?" We can now say with confidence that our day would have seriously suffered without Jamie. Jamie came on board exactly one month before our wedding date *as promised* and throughout the whole month we knew Jamie had our backs. One example of Jamie going the extra mile for us was with a welcome note to our guests. I didn't think I needed or wanted to do a welcome note, but when I changed my mind last minute Jamie was able to get some made for us and hand delivered them to our hotel! The day of the wedding, I can truly say I have never been so excited but more importantly I was at peace. I was able to be present in every moment because I knew every base was being covered. Jamie strutted in my hotel room first thing with the biggest smile on her face and she was just as excited as I was! The day went exactly according to plan flawlessly thanks to Jamie. Everyone from the family, to the bridal party, to our wedding guests were taken care of. Jamie was more than I could have ever expected in a planner.

    100% you cannot go wrong with Jamie! She became a friend, a sister, and our go to person for everything, she helped us every step of the way. She was amazing, even outside of the actual wedding. My mother in law passed away 3 weeks after hiring Jamie, and my now husband and I received a huge bouquet of beautiful flowers letting us know that she was thinking of us. We had only met her 3 weeks before, and she was already part of our family and our lives. From appointments, to questions, to concerns, worries, and "things that ALWAYS go wrong with weddings," Jamie had under control from start to finish. Amazing person, beautiful inside and out, and an incredible staff and team! Love her and highly recommend!

    Where do I begin! As mother of the bride and daughter of a caterer I never thought in 1 million years I would be hiring a wedding planner. My life had revolved around entertaining, planning life's milestone events and giving advice to family and friends for their special occasions. My first purchase after my daughter’s engagement announcement was "Emily Post's Wedding Etiquette "book.
    Fast forward to the day JAMIE LIPMAN stepped into our lives. We refer to her as “Wedding planner to the stars”. She is a combination of detail woman extraordinaire, family therapist, list and organizational manager, out of the box thinker and above all a warm, sincere hard worker that simply gets things done.
    Jamie brought her special touch of elegance to everything she created for my daughter’s special day. She has professional relationships with every vendor we could possibly think of (even a gospel choir).The answer to every question always started with "no problem" and nothing was truly ever a problem for Jamie.
    This wedding planner gets 10 stars from my family and a huge thank you for making my children's wedding experience a beautiful memory for a lifetime!
    Jamie Lipman, an "ABSOLUTE" must for my next event!?

    Weddings are deeply personal opportunities to celebrate love and your marriage with those closest to you. Ideally this will be the only occasion in your life to do so. Who you invite into your inner circle to organize, plan, and execute the big day is of crucial importance. Picking Jamie and the absolute team was the best choice we could have made.

    Most importantly, Jamie is laser-focused on you. She takes the time to understand the vision and experience you are looking for. She prioritizes her clients above all else and her care and attention are obvious throughout the entire process.

    She and her team also bring to the table a depth of experience in planning and coordinating highly successful weddings and events. This background and knowledge allows her to make creative suggestions and add to what is possibly your first time organizing an event of this magnitude. She is a master with the vendors, and will handle all the details you'd rather not spend too much time analyzing.

    Jamie and her team are flexible. They cater their service to you, and are open to new ideas (like our late-night order of Shake Shack burgers for our guests still on the dance floor).

    Lastly, Jamie and her team go above and beyond, and are fun, positive people you will enjoy working with from start to finish.

    Jamie, you gave us everything we ever wanted. Our wedding exceeded our wildest dreams and we have you to thank. If it's not clear by now: 5/5 and we would recommend you to anyone.

    TOTALLY AMAZING! On point, helpful, professional, knowledgable, easy to talk with, easy to work with. And then on the day of....ASTOUNDING! We did not have to worry or deal with ANY aspect of the wedding except to enjoy it. I am seriously blown away by the quality of her work- and she never seems to get flustered. And on the day she was calm, organized, endlessly patient, helpful, and on top of it.
    there is absolutely NO WAY you would be disappointed if you hire Absolute.
    We could not be more happy.

    A) get yourself a wedding planner. I am a control freak but I am also very busy and our family wer spread out into different corners of the country. Even if they hadnt been I wanted some1 to be an advocate for my vision and deal with the peanut gallery.
    B)Tho we didnt do this 2/2 constraints time/sched/loc: I would recommend a meeting at the outset of families/payors and planner so everyone is on the same page from the start.
    Now then, Jamie did a wonderful job navigating our crazy stubborn and very different families (along with my impulsive, fly-off the handle tendencies when stressed). I told Jamie that all I wanted was a BIG, FUN, amazing party, where people were dancing nonstop! It needed a certain vibe and I wanted it to feel like it was Miami, that it couldn't be in anytown USA. Jamie took the helm, artfully curating our vendors and their offerings. She was organized, trustworthy (though I had a hard time letting go), she also listened to our feedback and made necessary changes. She was patient/flexible and firm where she need be. She worked with our crazy medical resident schedules and subsequent email barages at 4 am with various pieces of half-baked ideas and responses to her questions, and more q's of our own.
    Once we had all the piece: canvas, the paints, the brushes, and a idea of vibe/aesthetic it was time for Jamie to create a masterpiece--no pressure:) We had our input and now we trusted in Jamie to execute our vision. But she did more than that. She CREATED our vision; she took scraps of paper, 4 am emails, ideas said in passing, her on-the-nose assessments of WHO WE ARE, and created our dream wedding and the amazing party! We had the best time, our family and friends raved about it (and still continue to do so). Jamie is an amazing, kind person and a great wedding planner. I thoroughly enjoyed the whole wedding weekend top-to-bottom because I had nothing to worry about, I trusted Jamie and she came through in spades.

    Jamie & her team at Absolute are amazing! From the moment you talk to Jamie you feel like you have already known her for years. She just gets you. There is a reason Absolute is a preferred vendor. Jamie takes the time to get to know you, your fiancé, style, personality you name it, she knows it. And that's what you want. I dreaded planning my wedding ( I am so not a planner) and felt incredibly overwhelmed. Jamie takes that away & you can focus on the important things.

    Jamie's vendor connections are simply the best & she does a great job matching up the vendor to the style & personalities of the bride & groom. One of things Jamie does best is strike a balance between making your wedding look amazing & staying within your budget. She won't stop working until you are satisfied.

    If you don't use Absolute for your wedding or event needs you are doing it wrong! My wedding literally would not have happened without her. Jamie & her team are top notch professionals & will exceed your expectations! Thanks Jamie for the most amazing day ever & we wish you much continued success!

    Jamie and the team at Absolute are ABSOLUTELY the best! Lucky for me, Jamie came on board early in the wedding planning process and right away I knew hiring her was the best decision! Planning a wedding from New York could be stressful but Jamie was always right there to keep me calm and make sure everything was done to perfection! Jamie is personable, professional, organized, so fun to work with and really makes you feel so special! Jamie made our dream wedding come to life and in the process I feel lucky to have gained a friend. Her team is also truly amazing!! From the rehearsal dinner to the day of the wedding her and her team had EVERYTHING covered. They were so organized and the whole weekend was more incredible then we could have ever imagined! I can’t thank them enough. I would absolutely recommend Absolute to anyone getting married!!

    We got married this past weekend and we cannot say enough wonderful things about Absolute and Jamie! Absolute came on board the month before the wedding and our biggest regret is not having them come on board sooner. Jamie and her team are so professional, helpful, knowledgeable and easy to work with. They made our wedding day and the days and weeks leading up to the wedding so much less stressful and really helped to make everything run smoothly. Jamie made us feel so special throughout the entire process and our wedding day would not have been nearly as incredible without her. Jamie has a real gift for what she does and if you are looking for an outstanding wedding planner, look no further. Absolute is so fitting for this planner because they are absolutely the best!

    My fiance and I were in the unique position to plan our Biltmore wedding from London. Thankfully, we had my parents based in Miami to help us out, but the time difference and distance certainly did not make the task any easier. As soon as Jamie came on board as our wedding planner, we all let out a massive sigh of relief. Jamie instills absolute confidence and possibility. She immediately felt like family to us all, and made the planning process so much easier with skype/viber calls to London with us. She helped us stay organized and on top of our deadlines, and thought of all the tiny details that we wouldn't have ever thought of ourselves. On the big day, Jamie even provided our cake topper (we didn't even have to ask)!

    Jamie's team is a delight, and we were so grateful for all of their support on the wedding day. There are so many little miscellaneous things that need to be done on the wedding day itself, and having a whole team of people as backup proved essential (eg: making sure everyone knows their places, communicating with all the vendors about the master schedule, and even last minute steaming and sewing emergencies).

    Absolute's vedor connections were amazing, and the fact that those relationships already existed made our planning feel very natural and relaxed, since everyone knew the drill. I highly recommend hiring absolute, my family and husband agree that it was some of the best money spent by far! Save yourself the headache and go with absolute, they know what they're doing and they allow you to enjoy the process of getting married, rather than stressing over how much work it can be.

    There are so many great things to say about Jamie, it’s hard to limit them to a review. First, I hired her during a time of high stress, after just having fired my previous wedding planner for being completely unresponsive. She immediately picked up where the other left off, inspiring all the confidence I would need to make it to the big day. She was incredibly organized from the get-go, always responding to my emails or calls within the same day and keeping all of my payments up to date. Jamie also knew when to provide me with an assortment of available options or to merely recommend what she knew to be the best as an industry expert. For instance, instead of sending me to multiple websites to research musicians, she insisted I first meet with Rock With U (RWU), a versatile entertainment company that includes DJ, live music and a combination of the two in a style known as fusion. Needless to say, RWU did not disappoint, nor did anything else during our epic wedding celebration. Jamie also has great relationships with many vendors in South Florida, and therefore made sure I was in the best hands and was getting the best price. She was truly a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend her as a wedding planner.

    I would highly recommend Jamie and absolute - they did a fantastic job at our wedding. We felt so lucky to have a planner who has personal relationships with all of our vendors, which made for seamless planning. Jamie took care of any and every detail that we needed and she did so with complete calmness and control. She has a great positive energy and loves what she does and that makes the experience so enjoyable. The day of the wedding Jamie made us feel so at ease and we did not have one thing to worry about - Jamie took care of everything and the wedding was flawless. Thank you Jamie and absolute!!!

    Jamie and absolute are amazing! You feel like a close friend or family member from the first second you speak to her. We brought her and her team on for the month-of our wedding but leading up to our big day she answered any question, big or small. My wife and I were very hands-on with our planning process and are very detail-oriented and absolute had it all covered. Knowing the wedding was in their hands allowed us to sleep better at night :)

    The most important aspect of my wedding was to ensure that my lovely bride to be was taken care of and had the best experience possible. It was very important to me that with the heavy workload and schedule she had, she could work with someone that was accommodating to her time restrictions, while still understanding her needs and making the entire process as smooth and seamless as possible. I had met and know Jamie years ago from my days of living in Orlando and always thought she was a wonderful person. Once I found out she has a thriving business with her company Absolute and a great reputation. I called her up and the rest is history.

    Jamie exceeded all of our expectations from start to finish. It is evident she loves what she does and approaches her business with a mindset of " client first". Her calm nature and willingness to do the "extra" things shines through as she does not miss any details. If you are looking for someone with high integrity, impeccable work ethic, while treating you with the upmost service, look no further. Thanks so much Jamie for making our day so special!!! You rock.

    Jamie is wonderful to work with. I must admit, I was hesitant to hire a wedding planner at the start, but quickly saw that I made the right decision. Having not ever been married before, I didn't realize how much goes into the coordinating of all the details. Timelines, contracts, reminders--she takes care of it all. It was reassuring to know that I didn't have to even think about it. Jamie not only knows the business, but is a wonderful person to work with. She is reliable, professional and takes time to get to know her clients (and make you feel like more than a client).

    We cannot say enough about the wonderful Jamie Lipman at Absolute. She absolutely puts her whole heart into each wedding she plans, and I have no idea how she does what she does with such perfect grace! She's amazing! She absolutely made our wedding go off without a hitch, and we got to enjoy every single second of it! We love her tons, and would recommend her a million times over! You will not find someone more sweet, calm, and fabulous as a wedding planner than Jamie Lipman!

    Jamie is "absolute"ly amazing! She had just the right amount of input in terms of vendor selections, and then as we got closer to the wedding day she handled all of the stuff that us brides shouldn't have to worry about- contracts, timelines, vendor setups/breakdowns, etc. On the wedding day she completely wowed us all with her multi-tasking abilities. Her personality and work ethic are truly made for the wedding planning industry.... a real natural! I would definitely recommend every bride to hire a planner, and I promise Jamie will go above & beyond your expectations.

    Jamie is AMAZING! As it is, planning a wedding is no easy task. What made it even more difficult was having to plan from 300 miles away! I could not have done it without her. She was my right hand lady for about a year of planning, and was always there when I needed her. Anyone hoping for a stress free planning period and wedding day has to work with Jamie. I promise you'll thank me!

    I hired Jamie and her company for our wedding after hearing about her from a close, mutual friend. She was immediately warm, friendly, and willing to be flexible with her services and time to fit our needs. She has a lot of experience and offers to assist with every little detail of the planning process. She is always calm, collected, and she was always able to help brainstorm and offer ideas for whatever was asked. She kept me organized to ensure their were no details missed which is exactly what I needed.
    The best part of working with absolute, other than the charming personalities, was the day of service. I did not have a single worry during our wedding weekend because Jamie and her team made sure that every minute ran smoothly and seamlessly. Even the guests all commented as to how wonderful and hands-on the team had been through the entire event. I would certainly recommend absolute, and I would definitely work with them again!

    Jamie is awesome! I would recommend her for any kind of event, let alone the most special one of your life. Jamie was always in touch and just a call/text or email away. Her response time is better than the police or Jimmy Johns. All the vendors were excited to hear we were working with Jamie as they all already had wonderful working relationships!
