Amy was amazing! We connected over our first phone call and I truly felt she wanted us to have an amazing wedding and it wasn't just another one on the list for her. Being someone who didn't really want to do much on my own, Amy was the best person to have in my corner. She referred me to the best photographers, florists, bands, etc! Everyone was AMAZING. She also knew exactly who to reach out to as far as vendors go - I had no clue about anything. She suggested things to me that I would have never thought of but ended up making such a huge difference - she went out of her way to meet us for appointments and make sure everything was squared away. Amy was always available for a quick check-in and could answer any of my questions. Day of - thank GOODNESS! I did not have one worry about anything for the weekend or day of. Amy put together a comprehensive timeline and made sure everything was executed. Both the rehearsal dinner and wedding were somewhat of a surprise for me in terms of what it all was going to look like and Amy exceeded my expectations! I couldn't recommend amy enough!! she's a seasoned professional when it comes to wedding planning.

You’re my superhero - I don’t know how or where to begin to thank you. Your grace under pressure, calm, positive energy, organization, problem-solving, professionalism…I could go on and on. You and Meghan created a remarkable, dream-come-true wedding experience with weather working overtime against us. I thought it would be tough to beat the pitch-perfect rehearsal dinner and miraculously reinvented Western Welcome, but the wedding was MAGIC. The unusual and spectacular flowers, the inimitable natural setting (those peacocks!) set the stage for a one-of-a-kind ceremony that’s still bringing tears to my eyes. The energy just kept building, with the elegant tables, delicious foods, Aussie attitude, clever, heart-happy toasts, love and drink-fueled fun eventually pouring out in nonstop adrenaline on the dance floor. Beautiful messages from our guests keep coming, but most importantly, the bride and groom had the absolute time of their lives, and really do have memories to last a lifetime. 

All of the cliches are true - it really was the best weekend of my life. And I know I am biased, but the amount of people who have reached out saying it was one of the most palpable love filled, most fun, favorite, or most memorable weddings they've ever been to has been in the dozens. Thank you for allowing me to enjoy every single moment of this weekend without worrying about the logistics. For helping to create the foundation for all of this joy and experience to build on. For doing things like making sure I cut my own wedding cake when if it was up to me I wouldn't have left the dance floor. For being very sweet and understanding always, especially during a very stressful lead up and during my planning stress moments. For literally saving our Welcome Party. I can tell how passionate you are and how much being the best you can be means to you and how much you care about your clients and your work,

Hands down the best decision we made was hiring Amy to design and plan our wedding. She not only assisted us with the big event, but she also helped plan 3 other days of events. From start to finish, Amy was a superstar that brought our visions to life. We feel so blessed to have met Amy, worked with her, and now to call her a friend. We wanted a wedding week that prioritized our guests' experience and was highly personalized. Amy got this and made this dream a reality. Each event built on the next and was loved by our guests. They loved the personalized details and how we showcased our relationship as well as Austin. These goals were achieved because of Amy. She is incredible. Amy is detail oriented, thoughtful, extremely creative, and a problem solver. She embraced our ideas and priorities from the start and was always coming up with new ideas and concepts for consideration. We had several detours along the way -- including a few times where we needed to change venues for our pre-Wedding events. Each time there was a set back, Amy was already pursuing other options and going through various backup plans. Wedding planning for us was made more difficult because we were not based in Austin. Amy was our eyes, ears, everything on the ground! She extremely responsive which helped so much given we weren't in Austin. She helped us plan out visits to Austin; kept us updated on all the various pieces and vendors; and made it so we felt comfortable with this destination wedding we were planning. We would recommend Amy to anyone planning a wedding in Texas or anywhere, really! She has the capability, the network, and the creativity to plan a wedding anywhere. When we first met with Amy we weren't entirely sure the wedding would be in Austin. She was there to help us consider the city as well as other cities and make the best choice for us. We knew if we decided on another city or state, that Amy would still be the planner for us. So consider her no matter where you are! You will not regret hiring Amy. She is a creative superstar but also just an incredible person. We are so so lucky to have her now as a friend too!
