    Baker Boho Barn Wedding

    I wanted to take a minute to say how wonderful Amanda was. Prior to my wedding and our first meeting I was anxious about pulling the wedding together and all the moving parts. From our first wedding planning meeting you addressed all my concerns, walked me through the whole wedding day, and provided me with beautiful florist options as well. From meeting her at our wedding rehearsal she made you feel like you were a friend not just a customer. She was kind and patient with the whole wedding party and all the questions we had. She helped us laugh off the stress and pre wedding jitters but always remained professional in her role. My wedding day could not have been more PERFECT without her. She is always behind the scenes but never far away to answer a question and keep us on our wedding timeline. I would not have known what to do without Amanda guiding us through our wedding day and helping us make so many beautiful memories. Her decor was exactly what I envisioned. She gave me the cozy barn weddingI always wanted. Amands took all of my ideas and incorporated them throughout the whole wedding from special pictures, to my color scheme and flower arch, my whole wedding dream was brought to life because of her. Thank you is a small word to say for all she did leading up to the wedding and our wedding day but THANK YOU Amanda and staff for giving Kyle and I the cozy barn wedding of our dreams.

    Amazing Wedding Planner!

    Amanda did a phenomenal job planning our wedding! My husband and I had to plan remotely since he was deployed and I lived outside of the country. Amanda was very flexible in accommodating our unique circumstances. She also was very detail oriented in making our vision a reality. Her recommendation for a venue was amazing, and the florals/arrangements that she provided were very beautiful.

    Everything turned out perfectly and it was our dream wedding! We cannot recommend her enough!

    Simply Weddings by Amanda, Inc's reply:

    Thank you so much for trusting me with your wedding day! I'm so elated that you loved everything and so blessed to have had the opportunity to work with you both!! Forever wishing you both the best on your journey of marriage together!! Keep in touch, please! XOXO-Amanda

    Amazing! Made our day easy and unforgettable!

    Amanda was our planner/coordinator and florist, and she is AMAZING at both. Not only was our day 100% seamless and easy, it was beyond beautiful. She asked me what kind of flowers I wanted, and I literally only said "calla lilies" and she ran with it for a full idea spread with images and put together the most beautiful venue I could ever imagine. She worked with the decoration team, the DJ, the photographer, the baker, the bartenders, the venue...literally everyone, and made our day the most effortlessly elegant and fun day of our lives. She put up with all of my questions with unending patience and reassuring answers until I finally realized I didn't have to worry about a single thing because she had it all covered. I cannot recommend Amanda and her team enough, and the combo coordinator/florist double whammy is the icing on the cake for making the wedding planning process easy and streamlined. She was also endlessly flexible with our guest count going from 130 to 35 with Covid impacts, and she still made our venue look tailor-made for our final count and setup.

    Absolutely Amazing!

    Amanda did an AMAZING job for our wedding day. Amanda was our day of coordinator along with our florist and she took the perfect day we imagined and turned it into reality. She coordinated with each of our vendors so that everyone was on the same page, making our day run very smooth! With everything going on the day of the wedding Amanda does a great job making sure that the bride/groom do not have to worry about a single thing. Our decor/florals were absolutely incredible and exactly what we wanted. We could not recommend Amanda enough for your big day!

    Best Florist and Event Planner!

    Amanda was amazing to work with and she really does it all. From organizing and planning the decor and flowers, coordinating with the venue (since our floral install took days), managing all of the rentals, and she was even the one there day-of and hands-on to execute it all. She made all of our Pinterest dreams come to life and exceeded many expectations with her floral arrangements.

    Incredible!

    Amanda was our day-of coordinator and florist for our wedding. Even though she was hired as day-of, she was an integral part of our planning process and made sure that the months leading up the wedding we are smooth as possible. She contacted every vendor and made sure everyone knew when and where they needed to be and stayed on top of every little detail. She also absolutely nailed our décor and made the venue look exactly like we imagined. Our day was so stress free because of her! We cannot recommend her enough.

    Compassionate and very caring

    Amanda is so amazing! Before the big day, she made sure to check in with me to make sure everything was going as planned. Amanda was so awesome during the rehearsal and everyone in our party kept complimenting how sweet and compassionate she was. She made sure to check on me at the day of and made sure everything fell into place.

    No fuss with special touches

    Amanda was great. She did exactly what I needed. I wanted to be able to relax and enjoy my wedding. I am not a planner, I despise it. Amanda handled everything. She worked well with DJ I had hired and they threw a great party which is what I wanted. They even put together a surprise monogram that was put on the wall which was totally unexpected but was absolutely amazing and awesome. There really was nothing for me to worry about even towards the end of the night, Amanda took care of everything!

    The best!!! Gave me my secret garden.

    Amanda and her team turned a 100+ year-old brick building into an enchanted garden!! Absolutely LOVED everything about my wedding decor. I worried about nothing the day of my wedding. Amanda handled everything (decor, planning, and day of) seemlessly. I would highly recommend.

    The best part of our wedding!

    Amanda was absolutely astounding. We can't recommend her enough.

    She really knows what she's doing and went above and beyond on every detail. She worked so well with the rest of our vendors, our family, and our guests. Our wedding went so smoothly, and it's all due to Amanda's great planning and coordination.

    We also hired Amanda for florals and decor for our wedding, and we received so many compliments. Walking into our reception venue was magical and so much better than we could have even imagined. The florals were so gorgeous, we spent part of our wedding just standing in front of some of them to admire them.

    We'd recommend Amanda for anyone looking for a true professional who can give them an easy planning process and a stress-free event!

    Amazing Day of Coordinator

    Amanda made our special day completely stress free. We met with her a few months before the wedding and she attended our final venue walkthrough with us as well. She took care of everything on the day of including the timeline, bridal party line up, even getting my husband and I drinks! Amanda is incredible and I would recommend her to anyone who wants their wedding day to go flawlessly.

    My wedding was better than I could have ever imagined!

    Amanda was my coordinator for my wedding and she absolutely killed it! Her and her team made sure my night went smooth and I had nothing to worry about! She is super easy going and such a personable person! My entire family and bridal party absolutely adored her. She also did my florals for my arch which were absolutely stunning! I would defiantly recommend her work to future brides and continue to use her work on the floral side as well if I need too! Thank you Simply Weddings By Amanda , you made my wedding night a dream come true and defiantly a night that I will not forget!

    Amanda is on top of every detail for your event. She is incredibly skilled and creative. A true professional that you can rely on!!

    Amanda is on top of every detail for your event. She is incredibly skilled and creative. A true professional that you can rely on!! Organizing my husbands 50th birthday party was a breeze. She comes up with these incredible little ideas and special touches that make such a difference and all while being cost conscious. Amanda knows the best vendors to hire. We had a casino themed party, she hired THE BEST casino company! She made gold door signs for my guests with casino chips as graphics and came early to the house ready to help and manage the set up. Tirelessly made a beautiful balloon arch for our entry. Once again, every little detail was handled by her. Amanda hired a DJ that was on time and blew us away the entire night. Through out the event she handled all those ongoing “needs” so I could enjoy the party! Always saying to me “I got this, go enjoy”. She is both calming and energetic at the same time, it’s a brilliant combination. For a Bride and mother of the bride she would be a DREAM!!! I am a local small business owner and I will have her plan all our events!! I recommend her wholeheartedly and with great confidence that after working with Amanda you’ll hire her for every future event need... like me!!

    The woman who made the dreams i didn't even know i had come true!

    If you are looking for a wedding planner to give you exactly what you want ON STERIODS, Amanda is your girl. She is the epitome of a wedding planner. I went into my wedding not knowing exactly what I wanted (never was the Pinterest board type) and Amanda not only delivered, she FULL SENT IT. SO many compliments from guests, and I'll tell you Amanda did it ALL! (I didn't lift a finger) Thank the good heavens for wedding planners, especially mine!! Amanda and her team put in all the hard work, sweat, and tears for me to have the most stress free day a bride is able to have. To wrap it up, if you're looking for a planner who will also be your therapist, mentor, confidant, biggest fan, and hype girl... It's Amanda! Who knew I could have a wedding that would be talked about and remembered forever. All thanks to Amanda!

    Amanda was a godsend! We were so grateful when we met her. We just clicked and very quickly felt like she would be able to take our ideas and bring them to life. Which she did so beautifully! I am not sure what we would have done without her, she helped create the wedding of our dreams. Amanda helped us define our vision and gave us good ideas on how to save money and streamline vendors. She also did our florals and her business partner Carla did our decor. They are a dynamic duo! Our wedding was so gorgeous that we still get compliments on how everything turned out months later. I honestly couldn’t imagine a better person to help you plan your special day. Amanda is truly the best!!

    Amanda from Simply Weddings by Amanda was the most amazing wedding planner and according to my husband the best money we spent through out our entire wedding. Her price for planning the entire event was well within our budget and her package included everything from helping with our budget to providing a list of reliable vendors she had worked with before. She was so attentive to everything we wanted while also helping to keep within our budget. She also helped to make sure our wedding day went very smooth with no major issues and made sure all of our vendors were on time and on the same page. Her vision for our wedding with decorations along with her gorgeous flower arrangements gave us the wedding of our dreams!! I wish we could go back and do it all again. I plan on using her for any big event we have in the future and I have recommended her to all of our friends and family. Choose Amanda she is the best!!

    Amanda is an absolute doll and breath of fresh air! After speaking to many wedding planners and having none of them understand what I was looking for I was recommended to Amanda. She got me into her busy schedule quickly and spent as much time as I needed to understand exactly what I wanted, right down to the finest details. She was also very reasonable with her prices and I was happy to hear that she had a full array of vendors to choose from to make sure everything I dreamed of was achieved. I highly recommend this company if you want a beautiful, stress free wedding.
