Hi! I'm Alexandra and the lead planner behind AMW! In 2013, the thought of Alexandra Madison Weddings began when I began training in several different areas to learn the best way to serve our couples. I've been lucky enough to gain wedding industry experience in Santa Fe, NM, Los Angeles, CA, and throughout the Southeast, focusing on South Carolina and Georgia. Within those areas, I was able to train in venue management, client relations, catering, rentals, and of course, wedding planning! AMW started servicing brides full time in 2017, and we have loved it every step of the way!

Absolutely wonderful to work with! We had full planning with Alexandra and Kendra. They always made us feel so at ease with frequent check ins and answered any questions we had along the way. The resources and materials they had for us through the planning process (timelines, layouts, seating charts, tip advice, a FULL collection of items to use on wedding day with full planning, and more) made it worth every penny. They brought every vision to life!! I had no worries months leading up to the wedding and this is all thanks to them! I would recommend them to anyone! Thanks so much for all you did to make our wedding the best day ever Kendra, Alexandra and Team! <3

I used AMW as a partial planner. I had already booked big vendors myself (photo, video, band). They helped with SO many logistics on the 9+ months leading up to my wedding. We had calls with what action items I needed to do and they also had contacts in the linen/rentals space to help bridge that gap for me. They also ran my day flawlessly- my head planner and 3 assistants were there day of and kept everything on track. I dont know what I would have done without them!

Alexandra and Abby were excellent. We planned a wedding in South Carolina not knowing much about the area. They connected us with great vendors. They made wedding planning easy and were extremely communicative through the process. Day of execution from Abby was hands on and she executed flawlessly.

Planning a destination wedding in Charleston, my husband and I were eager to find a wedding planner who was not only reliable but also enjoyable to work with! Alexandra, Kendra, and the team at Alexandra Madison Weddings were absolutely incredible! From the moment we started planning, they were professional, supportive, kind, and incredibly helpful. Kendra and Alexandra's expertise in design helped us bring our dream wedding to life - literally from my Pinterest board to my actual wedding.
We were so grateful for their guidance in selecting vendors. Every vendor we worked with was amazing. Their team's responsiveness and attention to detail were unmatched. Kendra was our rock throughout the entire planning process, keeping everything organized and on track. With a few last minute changes and the typical wedding chaos, Kendra and Alexandra made sure we had an amazing day and really worked to keep the stress away from me and my husband.
On the wedding day, Kendra and the team were invaluable. Their ability to handle everything meant we could truly enjoy our special day without a single worry. We can’t thank them enough for making our wedding the most perfect day of our lives!
It was truly an amazing experience working with Kendra, Alexandra and the lovely team we were able to work with! They are an amazing group of woman who we were so thankful to meet. We highly recommend working with the team at Alexandra Madison Weddings for any and all wedding planning needs, they're the best!!

Alex and her team are incredible. Parker was our lead planner and absolutely made our event the most perfect it could be! I cannot be more thankful for this team they truly are the best in the business. I could not have planned our wedding without them, they handled all of the logistics and made it the most stress-free experience possible! I have recommended them to all of my friends and family.

We loved working with the AMW team during our wedding planning process!! Alexandra and her team are professional, experienced, responsive, organized, detail-oriented, and upbeat. We used AMW’s full service package and are so happy we did. My husband and I had no experience in event planning and no vendor connections, both of which the AMW team has covered.
Our lead planner was Abby and we really enjoyed working with her! We felt very taken care of during the planning process and especially the day of the wedding. Abby and the AMW team that worked with her that day were so attentive to anything we needed. If I asked for something they were on it immediately. Their team took care of all the logistics so my husband and I could have our dream day.
I really can’t say enough good things about Alexandra, Abby, and the AMW team.
Highly recommend if you’re looking for a wedding planner!

On April 1, 2023, our daughter walked down the aisle at Adams Pond. Their perfect day would not have been possible without Alexandra Madison Weddings. They were with us for the 10 months of planning, provided meeting notes, guided us with all necessary choices, handled the various vendor's paperwork, and simply made it effortless.
Alexandra and her team led the rehearsal and stayed to help where needed. On the day of the wedding, Alexandra and her team made us feel so special. The bride and the groom's family each had a team member to ensure their every need was met. Alexandra and her team worked so well with all the vendors to guarantee that what the bride envisioned was realized.
I highly recommend choosing Alexandra Madison Weddings to make your wedding memorial and worry-free!

We had the pleasure of working with Alexandra Madison Weddings for our special day and we truly do not have the words to describe how wonderful of a team they are! Their attention to detail, organizational skills, and passion for creating unforgettable experiences were outstanding. They listened to our vision, provided valuable guidance, and delivered a wedding that perfectly reflected our style. With their extensive network of vendors, everything ran smoothly.
On the wedding day, their calm and composed demeanor made us feel at ease. I highly recommend Alexandra (& Abby!) for an exceptional wedding planning experience!

We could not have done it without Alexandra Madison Weddings! Alexandra and her team were amazing to work with from the start of the process to our wedding day. What sets AMW apart from the rest is definitely their attention to detail and vendor recommendations. They were a one-stop shop for us and worked with us on all the details from the invitation suite to reception design to custom koozies, matchbooks, and pizza boxes. Alexandra & her team jumped on every crazy idea we had and had so many ideas and suggestions I never would have thought of. Closer to the wedding day, they were a seamless liaison between us and the vendors, and on the wedding day they handled everything and we were able to truly relax. I still cannot get over our reception and how they transformed the space in a day like little wedding fairy godmothers. I can't recommend this team enough.

Alexandra Madison Weddings helped me so much while planning my wedding and on my wedding day! Her whole team was very helpful in helping me make decisions for the wedding day but also help me to feel comfortable and happy on my wedding day. Alexandra always made me feel comfortable and not stressed. One of our favorite things about Alexandra's team was my husband and I were taken care of the whole time at the wedding. We were brought water on the dance floor, they made sure we ate, they helped me bustle my dress, and they always had a smile on their face. If you are thinking about going with a wedding planner, Alexandra Madison weddings is the one to go with!

Though still stressful, Abby and Alexandra were always available to answer ANY and ALL questions I had… no matter how crazy!! Not to mention reminding you and keeping you on track with your assignments! Abby was so hands on and active through the entire process and Alexandra always had the best advice.

Alexandra and her team are the best of the best! Knowledgable, connected, professional and as genuine as they come. They’re all so good at their jobs but they make you feel like their number one priority. I was shocked to see how many weddings a year they plan due to how much one on one attention and time they gave me and my fiancé. I could not recommend them enough! Truly made the wedding planning experience so special and my guests still brag about our wedding.

Alexandra Madison Weddings literally made my dream wedding come true in my hometown of Santa Fe, New Mexico! Although they planned a majority of our wedding from South Carolina, Alex and her staff were incredibly thorough with their research and attention to detail to make sure that we not only got exactly what we had envisioned, but also at the best industry price! They were able to create customized mood boards, budget estimates, timelines and checklists leading up to our big day and scheduled regular check in meetings to make sure that everything was organized and on track and fit the aesthetic that we envisioned. They came out for a site visit and in person walkthrough and the day of the wedding had staff onsite making sure everything ran smoothly. Not to mention the obstacles thrown at them such as not being able to set up the ceremony until 5:00pm for a 6:00pm ceremony at Gerald Peters Contemporary Gallery they net let us seem stressed or worried which helped us to relax and enjoy our wedding day. Their staff also helped us organize our welcome party and customized and flew in all our signage at the welcome party and wedding for the entrance and bar areas which came out amazing! They were able to contract an artist to recreate our pet pug for our napkin art and cocktail signs and we loved those personal touches. From the moment they assisted us with sending out our invitations to cleaning up the gifts and alcohol after the wedding they were an absolutely irreplaceable part of our big day and we couldn't recommend them more to other couples!

From the moment we hired Alexandra and Parker, we knew we were in good hands, and they went above and beyond our expectations in every way.
Their attention to detail, organizational skills, and dedication to making our wedding day flawless were truly exceptional. From the early planning stages to the day of the event, Parker was a constant source of support, guidance, and reassurance.
One of the standout qualities of Parker was her ability to take our vision and turn it into a reality. She listened to our ideas and preferences, and with their expertise, they executed our dream wedding with precision and elegance. She seamlessly handled every aspect of the day, allowing us to relax and enjoy the moment.
On the day of the wedding, Parker orchestrated the entire event flawlessly, from the ceremony to the reception, and ensured that everything ran smoothly. We could not have asked for a more competent and composed coordinator.
Our guests were equally impressed with Parker's work, and many of them commented on how well-organized and stress-free our wedding felt.
In summary, hiring Parker was one of our best decisions for our wedding. Her professionalism, expertise, and genuine care made all the difference in creating a day that we will cherish forever. We wholeheartedly recommend Parker and Alexandra to any couple in search of a wedding coordinator who will make their dream wedding a reality.

I used AMW’s partial wedding planning service for my Greenville SC wedding in August 2022 and I’m still so grateful!
With my package, I had a venue walk-through with Alexandra a few months prior where we walked the venue and then went together to the rentals to select linens, place settings etc. We had several meetings leading up to the wedding to discuss details and timelines and then AMW took over fully at 30 days including full coordination the day of. I really appreciated this middle ground option between a full service planner and day of coordinator.
Throughout the process, everyone on the AMW team was communicative, timely, professional and kind. I valued their industry experience and the way they guided and informed my choices without pressure. During the wedding weekend, everything was executed perfectly which allowed me and my family to enjoy the day without being stressed. I felt really taken care of the whole weekend - my lead planner Anna Brady was always checking on me and my husband making sure we had food, drinks, and that we were relaxed.
I would highly recommend Alexandra Madison Weddings!

Alexandra Madison Weddings (AMW) team is simply the best. We hired them to handle all services for our wedding and we could not be more pleased. Their attention to detail, compassion and understanding during difficult moments of our wedding planning process, and their availability were top notch. We had an engagement that lasted longer than a year, but the AMW team never made us feel like we were on the “back burner.” They were always there when we had a question and always knew what direction to point us in. They have done so many weddings and their connections made everything very seamless. All of their team members are so friendly as well.
While the planning of the wedding was outstanding, the day itself was even more perfect. They handled every aspect perfectly and provided us with the wedding of our dreams. The only issue we are facing now is that the day was so perfect that we’ve been awfully sad that it is over. Thank you for everything AMW, you gave us the wedding of our dreams. And to Alex specifically, thank you for everything - you are a rockstar and we will never be able to thank you enough.

Alexandra Madison Weddings is the best wedding planner! You will not regret booking her. They are so helpful and make for a stress free planning experience. I never felt worried about anything getting accomplished because they were on top of everything you could think of. I truly was not stressed day of at all and I’m usually the most stressed person in the room. It took so much weight off of me and my mom and we were able to enjoy the day since we knew they had everything under control. I highly recommend their decor package, she had everything you could think of needing for a wedding and it saves so much money because you aren’t having to buy things you won’t use again. I cannot sing AMW’s praises enough. They are truly the best you could ask for and we are so thankful we used them! Thank you so much Alex, you and your girls are the best🤍

The girls at Alexandra Madison Weddings were the best thing to happen to my wedding planning! They were so helpful and organized from the start. They sent 4 girls for my wedding and everything was taken care of that day. My mind was at ease knowing they would take care of everything! Their collection of decor was beautiful, and their connections for special details to make your wedding unique were amazing touches to our day. From rehearsal to the execution of the day and the reception design everything was perfect!

We hired AMW as we were an out of state couple and needed guidance during the wedding planning process since we were not familiar with the vendors in the area. To be honest, even if we were local, I would recommend hiring AMW! Alexandra and her team went above and beyond in making sure our day was flawless from the beginning to the very end! Her vendor recommendations, decor/design assistance and planning were amazing and made the process and our wedding day stress free and truly enjoyable. Sarah-Elizabeth from AMW was our day of coordinator and she was exceptional! I cannot say enough good things about AMW and would highly recommend them to any couple!

They kept my photographer in check so my husband and I could soak up the special day with loved ones, handled all the last minute details, and were such a fun and calming presence! I’m so thankful for this team and truly enjoyed my experience with them. Definitely recommend!!

If you are reading this, go ahead and hire Alex and her team! They are nothing short of AMAZING! Alex was our head wedding planner and helped with any and everything. I am very indecisive and Alex was able to work with me and make everything beautiful like I had dreamt of. She was so patient with me and took all my stress away. Covid hit three weeks before my wedding was planned and Alex was a rockstar. She worked so fast to get things moved and talked to all the right people to get us all the options to make a decision on what to do. On the day of the wedding, I honestly could not imagine having anyone else in charge. Everything was beautiful and ran so smoothly. Her and her team pulled out all the stops to make me, my husband, our bridal party and our family feel so special and taken care of. We could not have done this magical day without her and her team!

Our wedding was literally the best day of our lives and it was all because of this team right here. Alexandra and her team did an absolute incredible job and took my vision and ran with it. They made sure that myself and now husband had drinks and asked if we needed anything all night long. I literally felt like a queen. I booked them in 2019 for our June 6, 2021 wedding. Yes I am a perfectionist and I am so glad I picked this team. I 100% recommend them if you are looking for someone to do exactly what you envisioned for your big day. BRAVO!!!!

Alexandra and her team were very professional and easy to work with. Our wedding date had to be moved twice due to the pandemic and her team made sure all of our vendors and our venue were up to date with any changes that arose. This made the process much less stressful for us. On the day of the wedding Alexandra and her staff made sure my wife and I were taken care of all day. They truly helped to make our wedding the special day it is meant to be.

I don’t know how anyone gets through a wedding with out the help of the AMW team! They were with us every step along the way and were so much more than a day of planner. They essentially helped us plan two weddings as a result of postponing due to COVID-19. Alexandra and Jess were always so helpful with all of our questions and concerns and made everything absolutely perfect for our wedding! Truly one of the most important vendors that we booked and we are so thankful for their expertise!!

I worked with Jessica Jones and she made our wedding day beyond perfect! I mean it when I say it wouldn't have come together without her and the AMW team. They were at the venue bright and early and worked non stop until the day was over making sure all my ideas and details came to life. Everyone at AMW is so sweet and so so helpful. They also have great taste and style so I knew handing off my visions was in great hands! Their decor collection is a game changer, they have beautiful decor options and it really let us add special touches like welcome signs and lanterns and beautiful pink goblets. Jessica helped our big chaotic group have a great rehearsal the night before too! I can't stress enough how above and beyond the team went for me. They made sure we had a platted meal of all of our food when we sat down and always made sure we had a drink in hand. I didn't even have to worry about the schedule because they were always on top of when we needed to do what. Jessica even ran up and down the stairs finding the Lace House elevator for us since you can't call it! Little things like that make them a dream come true to work with and I can't thank AMW and Jessica enough for everything they did for our perfect wedding.

As a recent bride, Alexandra and her team deserve ALL the praise!! When the COVID-19 pandemic hit TWO weeks before our initial wedding date, Alexandra was on the phone with me first thing the morning after shut-downs began. I’ll never forget that & how much she put my mind at ease. She got in contact with all my vendors right away when we were having to make the hard decision of postponing. We re-scheduled twice and she supported our decision every time. When our special day finally came a year later, I was nervous when I found out Alex wouldn’t be the one with us day-of but WOW. Parker was a GODSEND. We couldn’t have asked for a better day-of-coordinator to be with us on our wedding day. Parker was SO kind, positive & assertive when she needed to be! She made me feel like I had known her forever when in reality we had met day-of! She made sure I didn’t lift a finger or worry about anything. Parker exceeded all of my expectations & I am SO thankful for her & the entire AMW team!

Alexandra and her team were phenomenal! They anticipated our needs, responded quickly to any needs, and even followed up the next day with things left at the reception. A friend told me that I was so relaxed at the wedding. Thinking about it, the only reason I could relax and enjoy the festivities was because of Alex and her team. All the little (but big) details were covered. I was a little concerned at first, because our wedding was in Charleston and Alexandra's office is in Columbia. Not an issue at all! Thank you, Alex, for everything. I highly recommend Alexandra Madison Weddings!

I wish I could give Alexandra and her team a higher score - 5 is not high enough. They were very professional and exceeded all our expectations.
A month before the wedding date we were forced to change our plans from an indoor (all inclusive setting) reception to an outdoor one (we would had to provide everything). Alexandra and her team took charge and within a week, we had quotes for all the vendors needed and we were able to sign contracts immediately. They knew who to call and exactly what we needed. The problem was solved and the stress was eliminated.
Alexandra was accessible to us and answered any concerns we had as the wedding date approached. On the date of the wedding she and her team were present and made sure every detail was taken care of.
To be honest when my daughter told me she had hired a wedding planner for her wedding, I was skeptical and questioned if we needed one. After our experience with Alexandra Madison Weddings, I am a strong supporter and encourage everyone to use one. The costs are nominal in
comparison to the value a good wedding planner like Alexandra offers. With her being based centrally in Columbia, SC, she is capable of handling weddings all over the state.
In closing, I fully endorse the services of Alexandra Madison Weddings and encourage you to hire them for your wedding.

For the cost, Alex is great - she is talented, she made sure my, now husband, and I were attended to at our wedding and the overall result was outstanding. She has an excellent team who pulled off a flawless rehearsal dinner. If you want FULL PLANNING and don't have a starting point or many specific details that you want to include she is definitely your girl.
I was on the fence about using a planner because I am extremely particular but I didn't want to have to think about anything day-of and, because of the price, it made sense to do full planning so that the team knew my vision, story, and personality before being present at my wedding. Alex accommodated meeting me out of town, she did an excellent job on a color board that I was WOW'd by, she offered suggestions on vendors and she walked through different scenarios with me when COVID struck and I wanted a backup plan (or 2); however, if you need extensive budgeting/timeline assistance or are a particular person she might not be the right fit.
Not without trying, she definitely makes every effort, but I do think she over extends herself and strongly encourages her own ideas without explanation of why it would be a better choice which makes it difficult if you have specific things in mind or need quick responses. I made sure to try to respect her time and experience and did tell her to let me know if something couldn't be done but here were a few VERY small things that were different from how we planned.
The day was perfect in its imperfection, no major mishaps but the small things were all avoidable and I did a lot to ensure that everything was well communicated and accounted for so there were a few feelings of disappointment.

I cannot say enough great things about Alex and her team! When we got engaged in February 2020 we did not know what to expect with planning a wedding a year later. I work a job that doesn't allow a lot of time to make phone calls or do the research that needs to be done to plan a wedding. The first thing I did was hire Alexandra to help me out. Best decision. From our very first phone call she was professional, assisted in guiding for best vendor options and was organized. She handled everything in stride, and as someone who is type A and asks 1 million questions, I needed someone like her in my corner. She was always responsive and kind at my many questions. Then she came in clutch when we had to replan my entire reception within a month and a half period. I also had a lot of requests to make it as Covid safe as possible, and she was already one step ahead with some fantastic ideas to keep our guests safe. She and her team were amazing the night of and never let my husband and I out of their site making sure we were having a great time. I cannot thank them enough. They were exactly what we needed and would highly recommend to anyone else!

We are SO happy that we chose Alex and her team to help plan my December wedding. Alex is extremely knowledgable, fun to work with and she made the entire wedding planning experience not nearly as stressful as it would have been if we tried to do it alone.
Because of Covid, we had some very big last minute changes (2 days before) and Alex took care of everything within 24 hours. We could not have been more impressed with how she handled it and how smoothly everything turned out. I would highly recommend her to anyone and everyone looking for a wedding planner. She is the best of the best and we are so thankful we worked with her and her team!!

Alex and her team were delightful to work with. However, they promised several things and ended up “dropping the ball” on a lot of them. We hired Alexandra Madison as our wedding planner before we knew Alex would actually not be there for our wedding, but rather two of her assistants. They were unable to accommodate our needs for the night and my mom ended up having to do a lot of work the day of- the ENTIRE reason we hired them was to avoid this. She had to miss putting on my veil to get herself ready. I would not hire unless Alex will be there at your wedding.
Additionally, I believe we paid for one of the smaller “packages” they offer. Maybe if you pay more you get a lot more.

Words cannot express my gratitude for Alexandra and her team. They planned the perfect wedding for my husband and I, and made all of our thoughts and visions come to life. Alexandra is professional, patient, and has connections to so many great vendors throughout the state of South Carolina. She took care of all of the design details, transportation details, and made an in depth timeline of our day so that we didn't have to think twice about where we needed to be and when. Alexandra laid out all of our options to help us navigate COVID19, and made us feel comfortable with our decision to have our wedding on the planned day, with a smaller guest list.
If you are thinking of hiring Alexandra or any member of her team to help you on wedding day, DO IT. She was such a blessing to work with, and I am so thankful for everything she did for us.

Alexandra and her team did an amazing job at my daughter’s wedding. Not only was the professionalism top notch that day, but everyday leading up to it. Alexandra has a great personality and was always kind, patient, organized and made us feel like we were her top priority in every conversation. We highly recommend her.

I cannot rave about Alexandra and her team enough! Planning a wedding in 2020 came with many challenges and changes. Alexandra and the team were extremely proactive in helping us come up with ways to navigate the challenges COVID would pose on our original plans, but each and every alternative option was just as beautiful and special as our original plans. They were flexible and patient as we made adjustments, and ultimately decided to have a small family-only marriage ceremony and push our reception to 2021. Though several of their brides were making similar plans at the same time, they gave my wedding so much time and attention that I felt like I was their only bride! They will go above and beyond to ensure every detail is perfect all the while adding their beautiful touch to enhance your vision, making your day even more perfect than you imagine. If you are considering AMW, schedule a consultation NOW! I cannot recommend them enough!

Alexandra handled everything we threw at her perfectly!! She was integral for my mom and i during the planning process. We had to change a lot due to Covid and just normal wedding changes and no matter how last minute or crazy our idea, she jumped on it and made it happen! Our wedding would NOT have gone perfectly without Alexandra and her team. She took so much stress away and helped as much or as little in the decision process as we wanted. CANNOT RECOMMEND ENOUGH!

I can't say enough good things about Alexandra Madison and their team. I worked with Alexandra a lot in the beginning and she is very knowledgeable, sweet and professional, not to mention amazing at what she does! As our wedding got closer, I worked a lot with Jessica. She is amazing and really helped our wedding vision come to life. She handled everything with our vendors and was great about reaching out to me and communicating with me when important or last minute decisions needed to be made. I didn't have to worry about anything and that is exactly what you need in a wedding coordinator. On the day of, Parker was so sweet holding my train and my veil as we waited to enter the ceremony (which was a task all of its own) and greeted me and my husband with a celebratory drink right after the ceremony. She made sure we had our drink of choice all night long, I never even had to go to the bar for myself. She also made sure we got a private moment to ourselves to eat before entering our reception when people were lingering around. I cannot say enough good things about them as a planner and team. You need them at your wedding!

I can’t say enough good things about Alexandra Madison Weddings and her team! I mainly worked closely with Jessica the day of the wedding and leading up to it. She and everyone else were absolutely wonderful! Our wedding went so smooth and perfect. If I had just the tiniest question about something it was always answered! They were so sweet, helpful, and willing to do exactly what I asked for. Our decor was set up beautifully, they helped with pictures, making sure we had drinks the whole night, that we stayed on track for our timeline, and so much more! If you’re looking for the best, use this team! Thank you so much to AMW for being apart of our special day!

Alexandra and the AMW team made our wedding day absolutely perfect! The entire process of planning a wedding, even in the middle of a pandemic, was a breeze. She handled EVERYTHING-- big & small. She is professional and so organized! Hiring her team was the best decision we made when it came to wedding planning.

As the mother of the bride and being out-of-state, I cannot speak higher of Alexandra and her team. They did an awesome job handling all of the details for the wedding day and worked hard to ensure all went smoothly from the beginning to the end. This was a challenge given COVID mask requirements and proper distancing and I am so appreciative of the care and diligence showed by Alexandra and team. Very professional, courteous, composed and dedicated taking away all worry for this mother of the bride! Thank you Alexandra Madison Weddings!

I cannot say enough great things about Alexandra and her team. We had so many changes for our May wedding due to COVID restrictions, so we pushed big day to October and had a micro wedding on our planned day in May. Alex & her team have done above and beyond what we contracted for and have been so incredibly helpful with every single step of the way, especially when we kept having to change plans due to new restrictions. Everyone we have been working with on the team has been communicative, organized, and so friendly with us -- we truly cannot thank them enough!!! We strongly recommend hiring AMW for any wedding event size!

Where do I even begin?! Alex and her team went above and beyond every single time we spoke. Unfortunantely, we were one of the many couples affected by COVID-19 and in the most stressful times of our lives, Alex and her team eased every fear that we had. After going through multiple "Plan Bs" in a week, we changed our 175 person guest count to a 15 person micro-wedding in two days, at a different location, and with only two of our vendors and Alex and her team never flinched! They were so patient with us and made it happen. I don't know what we would have done without her! I will be forever thankful for the patience, organization, love, and support she showed me through my year of wedding planning. Can't wait to finally have our large celebration in 2021, and have Alexandra Madison Weddings helping us every step of the way!

I cannot say enough about how wonderful Alex was to work with planning the 12 months prior to my daughter's wedding March 21, 2020 but especially during our COVID19 last minute change from 225 guests, to 40 to 10. She jumped in to action and provided great insight and help as we threw Plan A B, C, D & beyond. Most of our vendors were WONDERFUL but she did save the day on a few that fell thru. She remained optimistic and calm during the week of changes and we truly appreciate all of the extra things she offered as well as her flexibility.

Alexandra and her team were absolutely amazing throughout the planning process! She LISTENED to us during every discussion and worked with us to create a ceremony that we envisioned, regardless of her tastes or preferences. She worked with our budget, she was always professional, and gave us plenty of options to choose from in order to make our day perfect. Her access to vendors, hotel blocks, rentals, and more was extremely helpful. Her passion and love for weddings and celebrating couples was evident every time we met with her - she was always so smiley and cheerful!
Our wedding was set for late May 2020, and unfortunately due to the COVID pandemic we were unable to see our dream day come to life. Alexandra worked with us to alert all our vendors and stuck with us as we worked to plan something smaller at a later date (we're thinking California in October)! Alex even offered to fly out to Cali to help us continue to plan our day - such commitment!
We cannot thank her enough! If I could do it all over again, sans COVID, I would still choose her.

Alexandra Madison Weddings helped make my wedding day PERFECT! Alexandra and Jessica were AMAZING to work with. I hired them for month-of coordination and the decor package, but they were instrumental in helping me plan and find vendors throughout the entire 7 months! Any small question I had they were always quick to respond via email or text. Alex and Jessica and their team were very organized and professional- I was able to have a beautiful wedding without having to worry a bit about setting up or any day-of hiccups. To top it off, their decor rental package IS WORTH EVERY PENNY! It saved me SO much time and stress (and money!) to not have to find or make all the items for our "Meant to Bee" themed wedding- so thankful for them!

Alexandra was amazing. My husband and I had a strict budget and she was so helpful in helping us stay within that budget and still have a beautiful wedding. She was always available and quick to answer and make helpful suggestions. She was organized, reliable, and punctual. Her and her assistant were there for the rehearsal and the entire wedding. We were able to get ready and enjoy our special day without worrying about anything. We are so grateful to have had her as our wedding coordinator.

AMW is absolutely amazing, best money spent for our wedding. Jessica was our day of coordinator, but it was so much more than I expected! we kept in touch throughout the 8 months of planning. she took every email, meeting, picture, idea and made it into a wonderful day! Her team was spot on the day of, anything we needed. My mom was able to relax with me and and spend the day getting ready and making memories. There is no doubt they are the best and you will not regret hiring them!

Alexandra, Jessica, and their team at AMW helped make our planning process and day-of coordination seamless! It was important to us that we hire a planner/designer who could help make our vision come to life, and that's exactly what AMW did! We also purchased their decor rental package and loved having that as an option to avoid the headache of buying our own items. We were so impressed with the entire team they brought on the day of our wedding! Alexandra had many great suggestions and unique ideas to help make our June 29th southern summer soiree a success! Thank you for making our day PERFECT, AMW! <3

I can't put into words how much Alexandra and her Lead Planner, Jessica, did to make our wedding day completely flawless. I felt comfortable from my first meeting with AMW and their attention to detail. You get one-on-one attention that sets them apart from others we met with right away. They are fair in price, and worth every penny. Alexandra helped me with everything from the flow of our wedding to executing contracts with party rentals and helping me decide what would complement our space best. She developed relationships with every one of my vendors and made sure that they were happy and that their craft was showcased on the day of.
Most people just getting started have no idea how to do anything other than envision what they want their day to be like. Alexandra turned a vision into a true dream for us and I couldn't be more thankful. I look back on our day and it would have been completely different had we not believed in the AMW team. Thank you AMW for everything and more, I will always remember our day the way I dreamed of because of you!
