When I say Stephanie came to my rescue a month out from my wedding and Delivered everything I wanted! She was able to give options and make changes to my exact detail! I would defi...
nitely recommend her everytime.
Stephanie was such a pleasure to work with for my wedding in March 2023. She and her team are able to make any decorative vision come to life, even when that vision is kind of vagu...
e and unclear (like mine hahah). Stephanie offered great suggestions for decorations that I was unsure about, and she never gave me any limitations on anything I asked for. It kind of feels like they have the Mary Poppins bag of decorations, seriously anything you would ever need.
Communication-wise, from the get-go, Stephanie was super friendly, responsive, and transparent with me; I appreciated that she offered itemized pricing and proposals every step of the way. She really helped me work within my budget and never did a hard-sell, which is always appreciated during wedding planning. She was also flexible with random last-minute additions that I asked of her.
And then on the wedding day, the AOD team worked so smoothly without me ever having to check-in on them or anything. All the decorations looked gorgeous; Stephanie definitely has a great aesthetic eye. They were all so sweet and supportive and I'm so grateful to have had their help. 11/10 would recommend!
So, so happy with our decision to go with Aryn Olivia Designs. Stephanie does not boast enough!! She is amazing, talented, patient and passionate about what she does. Everything wa...
s smooth, we felt taken care of and our guests were blown away by the decor. 10/10 would do it all over again.
I got married October 25, 2019. Stephanie did a great job! "The Knot" Award she received is well deserved. We held our reception at Park Tavern and it helped that she knew the faci...
lity and vendor very well. I requested her one day partial service (reception only) and she got the job done! My goals for our wedding reception: 1) Beautiful, romantic decor 2) Smooth program flow 3) No stress (i.e. I didn't want any guests calling me on wedding day asking me about wedding logistics). Stephanie helped me accomplish all three goals.
The wedding decorations were beautiful and romantic. She properly executed the vision design I had for the reception. Managing program flow and crowd control was also very important to me. She did a great job managing this task. Stephanie was professional, organized, and very receptive to my ideas and suggestions.
I can't speak to her other services (i.e. planning wedding ceremony), but the services she provided for planning our reception was excellent.
The planner is absolutely fantastic! She did an incredible job at our wedding and was key for it being a huge success. I have recommended her to all of my friends and have used her...

e walking down the aisle it was a very emotional time for us and Stephanie endured until the end; she handled it with patience, comfort and class! We love you Steph! Thank you again for everything.
Stephanie and her staff helped me SOOOO very much with executing my graduation party. It was definitely interesting juggling our personalities and all the last minute changes, but ...
my venue was still beautiful, sleek, and clean the way I wanted. She remained professional and is definitely someone I would recommend to friends and family. I know she'll handle your event with care and priority.
Aryn Olivia Designs provided drapery for our wedding, and it was perfect! Competitively priced and more than worth it for the value we received. The installation and design was exa...

Post Wedding Update:
Highly recommended. Still amazing! I appreciated how Stephanie was able to work seamlessly with me, my family, and the venue crew. The thing I love most abo...
ut this planner is her ability to take your vision and speak life into it. For us, that vision was "rustic" and her enthusiasm made it seem as though this was the only and best theme ever! :) She gives you that special feel and special attention and I appreciated that throughout a long process as a bride who was unable to see the big picture among all the small details.
Pre-Wedding Review
Stephanie has been super amazing so far throughout my wedding preparation process. My fiance and I live in Texas but our wedding is in Atlanta and it provided so much peace of mind knowing that she would call vendors, set up appointments, organize "to do" and many other needs while we were away. As a list maker, I also really appreciated how she would "chunk and check" by giving me about 5 task to consider and tackle at a time then check back in to see if I was satisfied and ready to move forward with additional planning. She provided consultation in moments when I had no clue how to make a sound decision and I genuinely felt that she had my best interest at heart. I feel like this process has gone amazing smooth, especially compared to the stress that people are expecting me to experience! I know that Stephanie and her team are highly responsible for my relaxed demeanor through my planning process and I can't wait for our wedding day, knowing that they have our backs!
Stephanie and Melissa were super professional from the beginning. While we didn't have a large budget, they worked with me and made sure it was affordable for us. Stephanie was ver...
y punctual and organized at every meeting, even when I wasn't. She helped guide our decisions throughout the whole process. Our ceremony was supposed to happen outside and it ended up raining half n hour beforehand. Stephanie and her team were super quick to move everything to an inside room and have it decorated as well. As with any wedding day, there were quite a few hiccups but Stephanie, Melissa and her team made sure the day was enjoyable and stress free. Im very grateful for their services and will be sure to recommend them to all future brides.
You will be one blessed and stress free bride having Stephanie (and her AOD team) assist in making your wedding the BEST DAY EVER! When I say, I could never thank Stephanie enough ...
for making me and Brett's day so beautiful, even almost magical. I was a DIY bride and wanted to be sure that my drawings and decor that I created for my wedding would turn out as I imagined and what I got was so much more. Not only is Stephanie great with organizing and making your vision come to life, she is all around a great, down to earth person who simply becomes part of your family/team/support system. Brett and I are truly thankful to have found Aryn Olivia Designs! Your rock Stephanie!
Stephanie and the whole AOD team saved my event. Stephanie’s eye for detail and ability to work with any budget is AMAZING!!!
This review is sooooo long overdue!! Stephanie was hands down the best vendor choice we made. She is truly the quintessential planner extraordinaire!! Not only does she have a warm...
touch, her attention to detail is simply unrivaled. She went above and beyond, adding touches to our wedding that we didn’t pay for by because she cared so much, she added it without a second thought or any expectations! I can truly say we have found a planner for life!! After our awesome experience with her, my sister employed her services for her wedding as well! And a just a few months later she helped plan our baby shower and hosted it at her amazing showroom in norcross. Stephanie, you’re simply the best and you already know you have yourself lifelong customers!! Can’t wait for you plan more of our events!!
This review is a warning for all future brides. I wish I can give this company a ZERO rating. The owner and lead coordinator Stephanie Grant is a manipulative liar! I hired her to ...
decorate my wedding venue in Oct. 2017. Stephanie did not deliver the excellent service she promised. Several items I paid for were not provided (arch, toss bouquet, etc.), my unity vases were taken from the venue by her staff and one of MY candle holder were broken by her staff. I contacted Stephanie in reference to my concerns and she never took responsibility for ANYTHING! I decided to sue her and judgement was found in my favor on 02/15. Since winning the judgement I've contacted Stephanie twice, both times went unanswered and she has not offered any explanation as to why she has not paid the judgement. Hire her at your own risk but you've been warned.
Stephanie did such an amazing job for our wedding day. She put me at ease with everything being taken care of. I would recommend her team to anyone. Thank you so much!!! 😊
Wish I could give 1 million stars!! My wedding last night at the Biltmore Ballrooms was absolute bliss. The decor far exceeded my already high expectations. Stephanie is everythin...
g you'll want and need in a planner. From the very start, she embraced our Beauty and the Beast theme with elevated design ideas, was very, very communicative and responsive throughout the entire planning process, and handled every emergency with ease. When my hairstylist canceled a week before the wedding, she found me one in a day. When I left my garter at home, she made me one on the spot. When I was a stressed, Bridezilla, she balanced me out with calmness and patience. I also loved every single one of her vendor recommendations. Overall, her execution of my vision of a dream wedding was flawless and I'm so thankful! Hire her!!!
You guys did an amazing job with the draping for my wedding! Prompt, on time, professional, and stress free! Thank you all so much for helping make our wedding day/venue a gorgeous...
success! Keep up the good work!
Stephanie is the BEST! I've been working with her for about 15 months to plan my September 29th wedding. You do not have to worry about anything with Stephanie as your planner. ...
She is very organized and has a calming spirit, which is necessary for a bride! I would recommend AOD for any event. Top notch service!
Stephanie and Melissa are #1 miracle workers!!! They took the venue that shall not be named..... oh wait i will name them (Defoor Centre) so no one else will ever go to them again,...
from trash to absolutely amazing!!! I was so worried but they calmed me down and did way more than what was expected!!! These girls did their thing and any bride would be lucky to have them. #2 They truly made me feel like a Queen on my day and handled every problem without me even knowing! #3 I feel like I made friends. I can't stress enough how amazing they are!!!!!
We absolutely LOVE Stephanie!! She was everything and more a bride can ask for in a wedding planner. I was extremely stressed out with working full time, starting graduate school, ...
buying a house AND planning a wedding. But with Stephanie, she made everything seemed effortless. Greg and I can tell she truly cared for us and surpassed our vision for our wedding day. With all the emails, text messages and lunches.. she made seemed as though we were only coupe who mattered... lol. We will definitely recommend her services to all of our engaged friends :)
What can I say about Stephanie? Awesome, she was awesome and thought of everything I didn't even know about about. She worked with my budget and timeline. Very professional and jus...
t a blessing. She made my day brighter then I ever imagined. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!
My fiancé I found Aryn Olivia Design via internet on theknot.com and we are so happy we did. Selecting Aryn Olivia Design is the best decision we’ve made and their absolutely amaz...
ing. They are very professional, genuine, organized, flexible, and easy to talk to. Stephanie and her team are bringing our vision to life and we’re so excited for what’s to come!!
OMG...Where do I begin?!!
From the time I heard Stephanie's voice over the phone for our initial consultation, I knew she was perfect!!! We connected instantly and I felt like she...
could read minds because she knew exactly what I needed. From decor inspiration to day of planning and execution SHE WAS ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL! Always available to me for questions and she knew precisely what to say when I was overwhelmed to get me back on track. Over the course of about 10 months planning for my wedding, she won the hearts of my fiancé (now husband) and family with her upbeat and vibrant personality and attention to detail that is beyond normal! I can truly say that her work was magnificent!! But her ability to blend into my family and get to know what everyone needed was awesome! Her craftiness and creativity brought all of my visions to life and produced the wedding of my dreams. She made me feel like family and worked so hard to make my day perfect. Her team is very professional and works hard to make her ideas come alive. I would recommend AOD for any event large or small and I won't use ANYONE else for my events from now on! An absolute A++ for me and I even gained a new friend in the process. I LOVE AO DESIGNS
HANDS DOWN THE BEST!!!
Working with Stephanie and Aryn Olivia Designs for my wedding was an absolute blessing. From the first day I met her I knew I was in good hands! I was very much dedicated to being ...
a DIY bride, but she checked in on me consistently to make sure that we were checking things off of our to-do list and just to offer any support she could. Our wedding was one of the best days of my life and I couldn't thank Stephanie and her team enough for making it happen! Nothing put positive things to say about Aryn Olivia Designs. The bridal party, our parents, and even guests complimented their team on a job well done! I would definitely recommend Stephanie and her team to any bride or groom. You will not be disappointed!
Stephanie & her assistant Melissa handled our wedding this weekend, and I'm not kidding when I say that they saved the wedding. In the preceding month, she was very on top of thing...
s and responsive and made sure she knew the game plan for the day. I knew my event was in good hands with her, and I was able to relax when I handed her the magic wedding binder at noon.
As I was getting ready to walk out the bridal suite with my dad four hours later, heading to the aisle, she came in to let me know that our officiant wasn't there. Not only that, he didn't have us scheduled at all. But she had already handled everything - she had tracked him down, convinced him that he was actually hired for our wedding that day, and he was on his way. She had worked with my fiancee to come up with an alternate timeline to keep our guests happy in the meantime and put it into place - she opened the bar, brought out the appetizers, and set up a first look for my now husband and I while we waited for him to arrive. She turned what could have been a nightmare into a zero stress situation for me - I didn't even know anything was wrong until it was almost fixed.
That was pretty much how our whole experience was - every time I needed something, I turned around and Stephanie was there with a bottle of water, or my flats, or scissors to open a present that just couldn't wait. I originally didn't even think I needed a day of coordinator, but I am SO glad that I worked with her. I really didn't have to worry about a thing once she arrived! If you are looking for a first class problem solver and fantastic coordinator, I highly recommend Stephanie and her team.
There are brides who know exactly what they want and then there was me...The bride who hadn't had a clue. Luckily, Stephanie and her amazing team helped piece together the Wedding...
of my dreams.. that I had never dreamed of. It was amazing! Her creativity and expertise were exactly what I needed. She understood where best to splurge and had cost effective yet beautiful designs and ideas when staying under budget was of concern. She included some final touches to the decor that took my breath away. People make comments of how beautiful things were and I cannot take the credit (but I try)! Stephanie and her team had our guest in awe. I was most thankful for her very supportive and positive attitude throughout it all, from the initial phone call through all the long distance planning and especially the day of. Can't thank them enough!
Stephanie and her team are wonderful. Anything that needed to be done, they made you feel completely comfortable that they would take care of it (and they did)! Aryn Olivia Designs...
operates with the upmost professionalism and I would jump at the chance to work with them again. Also, Stephanie was always conscious of smart spending; she did a great job of saving us money without cutting corners. If you are looking for someone to reduce your stress and deliver a beautiful event, look no further!
So, such an impression was made that I joined the Knot simply to leave a review. That's how ah-mazing Stephanie was! From our initial meeting, it felt like we were friends and ther...
e was a genuine interest in Jean and I, as opposed to her bidding for a job. Throughout the process, the communication, organization and patience were just short of perfect. On our wedding day, those same qualities were present. I can go on and on about how much we appreciate the staff at AOD, but I don't have enough characters, lol. I just want to say thank you!! You treated everyone like family and really made this day special. We are forever grateful to call you friend.
If you want the wedding experience you always dreamed about, seek no more - Aryn Olivia delivers. Anticipated needs we didn't know we had, made us feel like all that we needed to d...
o was show up to the altar. They stuck with us to the very end of the evening. They were the other miracle of our big day!
