Amanda was amazing! She was able to help me secure all the vendors by selecting several options for me to choose from with keeping in mind the budget and what I liked as far as sty...
le goes. She attended several meetings with me regarding the wedding venue, florist, and final dress alterations appointment. I love that she kept my vision in mind when helping me choose down to the decor details what would look better. I’m so very lucky I found her because I could not have imagined going through this process without her. She was vital on the day of taking care of all the little details along with behind the scenes stuff. She was accessible most days and always got back to me in a timely manner. I felt like I could go to her with any questions at any point in time. My wedding was absolutely wonderful and I could not have done it without her as my wedding planner. There were a few times where I had no idea what I was doing, but she was able to guide me and provide me with several solutions. The wedding in my eyes went off without a hitch. I’m sure she handled so many issues on the day of, but I, the bride, was blissfully unaware. My husband and I are so grateful for all of the hard work she put into our wedding and reception. I’m so thankful that I found her and have found a friend throughout this process as well. 🩵
Amanda and Elena were absolutely perfect for helping plan my Wedding. From the decor, to the flowers, to the day of coordinating everything went perfect. The decor was everything I...
wanted. They really listen and try to know who you are as a person when planning your event. I went through them for my florals, and they were beautiful. We had so many compliments on the flower arrangements. Leading up to the Wedding they were very helpful in finding venues, helping with budget and giving advice on things when you are not too sure.
They were very accommodating for my son who has special needs, I was worried about the windows at the venue and they immediately had a plan and a way to make it safe. I’m very thankful for that. I never had to worry about a problem because it was solved before it even started. If you were looking for kind hearted, amazing, hard-working women to make your day special. Then AMR Bridal & Events is the way to go.

bride who had more opinions of what she didnt want than what she did, Amanda really helped hone in on my vision and made the day absolutely perfect!

wedding party and a 350 person wedding until we were leaving the wedding venue on wedding night, Amanda was there for us and did an amazing job. Her knowledge and expertise took so much pressure off of us. The day of the wedding, having her there by our side calmed so many of our nerves. Her coordinator skills throughout the whole weekend helped us navigate a large wedding party and head count to have everything go as we dreamed that it would go. Our wedding day was a special day. It was the best day of our lives and AMR/Amanda was right there with us the whole time to make it special for us.
We highly recommend AMR Bridal & Events/Amanda for your wedding planning/coordinating needs!

As a wedding vendor, we depend on planners to make sure our installs go as smooth as possible. Working with AMR Bridal & Events is always a white glove experience. Their attention ...
to detail is 5 star. Not only do we get detailed day of information, we get phone calls and texts to make sure we have everything we need. When I have consultations with potential brides, I ask if they have a planner. If they do not, I always recommend AMR with Amanda and her team.
Amanda was cool, call, collected, and beyond knowledgeable. To every question I had, she had answers and suggestions! My wedding day ran smoothly thanks to her and I didn’t have to...

I couldn’t have asked for a better team! Amanda and Jordan were literally the BEST! Amanda kept in touch, almost daily, leading up to the wedding. She would handle every “crisis” I...
had (I was stressing about every small thing and she would make me feel so much better after speaking with her.) On the day of the wedding, she and Jordan made sure that my husband and I enjoyed the moment. She swooped in and saved the day from people trying to ruin my day. Had I not had this dynamic duo, I probably would have cried the entire day. Jordan was so sweet! He sat with me and made me laugh after realizing I just needed a moment to myself. They knew what I needed before I knew what I needed. This process was so smooth because they put their all into making this moment the perfect one for us. I’m so grateful we chose them. They have become family throughout this process! Not only was she my planner, but she was also my decorator. When I entered the ceremony and reception hall, my heart skipped a beat and my mouth dropped to the floor. It was BEAUTIFUL and beyond anything I could ever imagine. Thank you guys for making my big day a literal fairytale!
I was fortunate enough to have Elena from AMR as my lead planner for my wedding last month. The event was a true success! Because of her great communication, attention to detail, a...
nd her care in everything she does, I was able to relax and be present and enjoy my wedding day to the fullest! From the first meeting it felt like we were instant friends, and I really trusted she supported my vision and what I most prioritized. Her warm and cozy personality even led me to lean on her emotionally when I’d start to feel stressed. She was like a balm in those times. I’m a details person and loved being involved in every decision, but at some point I was done and just wanted to focus on being a bride. I could trust that all those details I was “over” thinking about were taken care of. And even though Elena was my lead planner and main contact, Amanda was there for me the whole journey. I knew I could always reach out for advice or reassurance. From meetings to ideas to planning to making sure I had everything I needed, and she was even there on the big day! Definitely hire this team, you will be so happy you did.

I highly recommend AMR Bridal & Events for all your wedding or event planning needs. Amanda is thoughtful, detail oriented, and kind. Her attention to detail is evidenced by the r...
eception floor plan & detailed wedding day timeline she created in advance of my wedding. Those documents were a comfort to me in the days leading up to the wedding & served as proof that Amanda had everything taken care of & planned out. As far as I know, my wedding day went perfectly. If there were any hiccups, Amanda took care of them & I never knew about them. I think that’s exactly what any bride wants. I’ll always remember it as a perfect day and am so thankful I had Amanda at the helm throughout.
Leading up to the wedding day, Amanda & her assistant Elena were always there if I ever needed anything. They were quick to respond & there for me even if I just needed to vent.
If I had it to do over, I would absolutely hire AMR Bridal & Events again & encourage any brides out there to seek this team out. Not only are they wonderful at what they do, but they are also wonderful human beings & consummate professionals.
I cannot recommend Amanda enough! She is exactly who you want to take care of you on your wedding day; she's level-headed, calm, somehow always where she is needed, and will take t...
he whole load off of your shoulders so you can relax and enjoy your day!
We did the day-of coordinator package, which was perfect for us. Amanda did a fabulous job integrating with our planning weeks out so she knew what was up. She reached out to most of the vendors without me even knowing to start coordinating drop offs and schedules with them.
You can trust her to give you her honest, professional opinion which means the world, and she is very clear that she is there for you.
Amanda and her team were a pleasure to work with!
Working with Amanda was an excellent experience! We were supported through our wedding journey with explorative tools that simplified our decision process with well educated and in...
formed input. As a same-sex couple wedding, Amanda was exactly who we needed to make our wedding day perfect, not to mention the incredible seamstress skills she had to use when a groomsman ripped his paint a half an hour before the ceremony!!! Literally a life saver. Our day was perfect in every way and we have so much of that to thank Amanda for.
Amanda and her team were extremely nice and responsive and listened to what was most important to us. She has a really calm and confident demeanor, which was a good balance for me!...
She is good with details, too. I highly recommend AMR!

I can’t imagine how we would have pulled off such a perfect day without her.

erything was running on time and smoothly. She even showed up earlier than her contract time to ensure that a vendor was set-up on time. For any brides looking for a professional, knowledgable, and fun wedding coordinator, book Amanda and you will not be disappointed!
From my very first conversation with Amanda, I knew I had to have her help me with my wedding. She was very attentive to my vision and repeated everything back to me in a way that ...
made me feel empowered - my now husband and I had imagined a non-traditional wedding, reception only, no cake but a macaron tower instead, etc. Amanda had no problems making my visions come alive much better than anything I could've ever conjured up in my head. After months of anxiously waiting, I was in awe at how amazing the tiny details of our wedding was. The best part, my husband and I didn't have to worry about any of that - Amanda and her team did such an amazing job, I wish I had time to enjoy everything longer. I'm so glad we had Amanda with us to make this whole wedding planning process so smooth.
If there's any advice I can give to anyone planning a wedding, get a wedding planner and, if you can, make sure that wedding planner is Amanda!
Amanda saved the day! Multiple times, in fact. She was so helpful with planning and navigating vendors in the months leading up to my wedding. She even had a back up cake ready to ...
go when my cake vendor didn't show up until the wedding had started. She was prompt with returning emails and wonderful with recommendations for vendors. Cannot recommend her enough! She's the one.
I can’t express how thankful I am for Amanda! She made the entire wedding process so much less stressful. She was extremely organized and always kept me updated about what I should...
be doing (while she took care of ten more things behind the scenes). She is so sweet and extremely responsive as well. COVID made the entire process somewhat more complicated, but Amanda took it in stride and made changes as needed to the ceremony and reception. I would highly, highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding planner!
Amanda and her husband at AMR bridal did an absolutely fabulous job coordinating my wedding! No matter the request or the time of day Amanda was ready to help me and answer any of ...

edding. She took so much stress off of me and my mom and made the last month of wedding planning a breeze! When I booked her I knew that she would not be the one there on the day of as she already had another wedding, so her husband, Jordan, and her assistant, Kylie, stepped up and were a dream during the entire day of the wedding and the reception! Amanda was more like a friend the entire way, a very wedding knowledgable, well organized, friend! She is so great at what she does and made my day flow so smoothly! I would recommend AMR bridals to anyone!
I don't even know where to begin! Amanda literally SAVED our wedding day! We had so many issues with our venue and Amanda helped us talk with them months prior to the wedding to tr...
y and resolve the issues. However, on the wedding day they still messed up so many things and went back on a lot of what they had promised. However, we had NO idea any of this was going on because Amanda handled it ALL! She whipped them into shape and was able to create the reception of dreams despite all of the issues. She knew exactly what I wanted and made it happen! We seriously would NOT have had a reception without her!! She handled everything so well and made sure she was still there to support me in any way I needed throughout the day. She is so fun and hilarious, she helps all those wedding jitters float away. I cannot recommend her highly enough!
Amanda directed my Daughter’s Wedding on July 6, 2019. It was HOT! Amanda had everything organized so well and kept the Wedding Party ready and on cue. More importantly, Amanda...

She was awesome!
