    Professional, supportive, empathetic, and thorough

    I worked with Amanda Holder over the weekend for a beautiful wedding at Opolo Vineyards, and I was so incredibly impressed and delighted by the services provided by her and her team. They were professional and always had a smile on their faces, and executed the event with attention to detail and a robust guest experience. I will not hesitate to recommend Amanda to any future bride!

    Amanda did a great job planning our wedding! She made the whole process enjoyable, easy and stress free! We received many compliments from our friends and family on how efficiently and effectively Amanda got things done while still being a very kind and enjoyable person to be around. Everything at our wedding turned out exactly how we had hoped and everyone had a great time.

    We couldn't have done it without Amanda.... well we could have, but we would have huge balls of stress for months, our relationships and jobs would have suffered, and our wedding wouldn't have looked anything like how we envisioned it! (and how it did actually end up turning out!)

    Amanda handles all of the details you know about, and all of the ones you don't. She makes you feel calm and on track. I never thought we would end up hiring a wedding planner, but I have zero regrets that we did. Amanda made sure that what we envisioned became reality, which allowed us to focus on what is really important... celebrating the love between each other and celebrating with our friends and family!

    Amanda Holder Events is the best!

    Amanda and her team are literally the best, no hyperbole. From start to finish, Amanda was there for guidance whenever I needed help but was hands off when I was happy planning things on my own. She handled all of the challenging things (like working with the caterer to determine all their specific needs or confirming our guest counts and timeline with all our vendors) and kept me involved at all points. She also has relationships with so many amazing local vendors so knows exactly who to recommend for you and your style. Not only is she amazing, her team is fantastic as well! They were able to take all my personal items and decor and created these amazing displays that were so beautiful - all without any input from me, which allowed me to focus on getting ready and being present at our wedding. They made the day of run so, so smoothly which allowed both me and my husband (and our families) to just enjoy instead of worrying or working. I couldn't recommend Amanda more!

    Kept Me Calm and Got Shit Done

    Amanda and her team were very professional and responsive throughout the entire process. They were also so much fun to work and a pure joy to be around on my wedding day, which is a big deal considering your planner is with you through the most intimate moments. Of course, things didn't go as planned due to the usual madness that comes with a wedding - but Amanda was always on it, fixed the problem, and assured it would be taken care of. She really kept me calm and got shit done.

    I have worked with Amanda Leath on multiple corporate events in the past and would highly recommend her to plan any event. Amanda is extremely organized and does not let a single detail go forgotten. She accomplishes all tasks with professionalism and a smile. You can trust Amanda to plan an amazing event and execute it perfectly as planned. Having worked with her to coordinate a 300+ attendee, 3-day conference across the country, I know she can handle anything!

    Shea with Amanda Holder Events

    I worked with Shea on a rehearsal dinner this past weekend and communications with Shea up until the event was perfect! Answered all questions and was detailed while organized. I just love working with vendors that make it something that can be very complicated, simple and smooth. I highly recommend.

    My daughter recently was married and Amanda Holder was her wedding coordinator. My husband and I live 4 hours away so I was a bit anxious since I was not able to physically be there to help my daughter much. It turns out with Amanda at the helm we had absolutely no need to worry. The wedding was flawless and fabulous. Everything went smoothly and the vendors Amanda recommended were great. The vendors seemed like they were having fun as well as the guests. Love was in the air, what a beautiful day it was for all. Amanda was behind the scenes all day long silently directing. Everyone was relaxed and enjoying the day. We heard from numerous guests that they had a great time. We were very lucky to have had Amanda. My husband and I were able to enjoy the day and we will be forever grateful to Amanda and her team. We were very appreciative for everything Amanda did for us and our daughter and new son-in-law.

    Great vendor contact to work with!

    As a wedding florist, I truly understand the importance of couples choosing the right planner to help facilitate coordination & communication throughout the entire planning process. I'm so thankful that Amanda & her team were on top of all the details leading up to our clients' wedding day (and were even able to transition plans smoothly when unexpected weather rolled in!) Would highly recommend them for couples getting married in the SLO area!

    I had the absolute pleasure of working with Amanda on a fundraiser event for a not for profit organization. She helped to turn around an event that was raising about $500 a year, to raising over $2500. She was innovative and creative with her ideas and brought such a positive attitude every time we interacted. Every time we met to plan, she was prepared and had such great ideas. I can't wait to work with her again this year and see how much more successful we can make our event.

    Amanda and her team truly pulled together our dream wedding! Everything thing was seamless and I was a stress-free bride on my wedding day. From the beginning she was helpful with listening to my ideas and helping pick the right vendors. Although we went with many of her suggestions, we also picked a few vendors whom she had never worked with before. She was very organized and responsive when pulling all the various vendors together. I've had many of them compliment on how easy and kind Amanda was to work with. Amanda and her team were a true blessing to us on our wedding day and we are so thankful for all that they did to make our wedding so fun, beautiful, and memorable!

    AHE for the Win!

    The AHE team won us over from the first skype meet & greet call. Amanda is such a pro and set us up for success with vendor reccos and tools to make wedding planning so much easier. Hannah was our girl for the wedding weekend and month-of coordination. She had such a great spirit and sense of humor - exactly what we needed when things got stressful.

    The Definition of a Dream Team

    Where to start?! Our wedding day and weekend were absolutely perfect, and it's all because of Amanda and her fabulous team! Not only did Amanda help us navigate through the planning challenges that 2020 presented, but she did so flawlessly, and with a 90 day timeline. With Amanda's guidance I felt at ease, relaxed, and so organized. Her vendor recommendations fit our vibe, budget, were all professional, and extremely talented. I can't boast enough about this wonderful team and how great of an experience we had!

    Organized and Sweet Group of Leaders

    I was a dessert vendor for a wedding last weekend where Amanda Holder Events was the planner. It was really great that they were so organized with layouts and all the details to make me feel ready to work. When I showed up, they welcomed me and seemed to handle all their transitions very well. It's great that they have a big team who are well-experienced in the industry. Thanks for a great night!

    Amanda and her team are THE BEST

    I am very organized so I wasn't sure initially if I needed a wedding planner but having Amanda turned out to be the absolute best decision. She helped us all along the way and scheduling + rescheduling vendors due to covid. The day of our wedding was absolutely perfect and she handled everything! I was super nervous before the ceremony and the girls on Amanda's team even helped calm me down. If you want your wedding to be a seamless and perfectly organized event, you have to have Amanda there!

    Mother of the Bride

    Amanda Holder Events was simply awesome. At the beginning of our journey we had no idea how we could pull off a destination wedding so chose to go with “the full service” planning option . Amanda and team kept us to deadlines, recommended vendors, advised us on every decision but made sure we felt in control. The result was three perfect events - the rehearsal dinner, the welcome party and the wedding itself. The guests were raving about everything and days later we are still getting messages about how incredible it was.

    Absolute Dream Team - book them now!!!

    I do not even know where to start… Let’s just say, if I could give more than 5 stars, I would!
    From the moment I met Amanda, I felt so comfortable with her - she is sweet, bubbly and so friendly. She has so much experience, I felt totally at ease with letting someone else take over. Even in the midst of covid and having to meet and plan over zoom, I still felt like I really got to know her and she made the planning process so much easier. She uses a website where everything is in one spot that has checklists, budgeting, seating charts, dream boards, and much much more. Having this easy-to-access website lifted a huge weight off of my shoulders during the planning process.

    Amanda truly treats you like a friend and as busy as I’m sure she is, she was always readily available and easy to reach if I had any questions or concerns which was so important to me - because I definitely had lots of questions! I could tell within every conversation with her, grasping my vision for my wedding day was her upmost priority. If I thought it - she told me - we’ll make it happen.

    On the rehearsal day, I was able to meet the rest of her team, and they were all incredible too! Each of them are so organized, punctual, friendly, and honestly make you feel so special and important at every moment. My wedding day - quite literally - could not have happened without them.

    I really could go on and on, but all I am trying to say is… I highly recommend this dream team, 10/10!!!

    AHE is Simply the Best

    As a fellow vendor, Amanda Holder Events is the best in the biz. They are always organized, punctual, attentive, and just overall great to work with. AHE also coordinated my sister's wedding in 2019 and Amanda slayed it. 10/10 recommended on both the vendor and consumer sides!

    I own a catering company and we LOVE working with Amanda! She's calm, collected and knows how to put a wedding together like she's been doing it for decades. We always know everyone involved including the bride and groom will be overjoyed with everything about Amanda.
