Ashley Nicole Affair

I cannot say enough amazing things about ANA. From the moment we met Ashley and Amanda we knew we were in the perfect hands. Not only were they completely supportive of our vision for our wedding- but they were completely supportive throughout the whole process. Amanda was our direct coordinator and we could not have loved her more. We ran into a few unforeseen hiccups in the last month leading up to the big day (not related to ANA at all!!) and Amanda's calming presence and willingness to get involved to help us meant the world. Our wedding day was incredible and we could not have gotten there without ANA. Amanda also recommended a DJ for us- knowing what we were after for our dance floor and MAN did he deliver (huge shout out to DJ Nick!!!) Another huge plus was that with their sister company Fleur and rental program- it was so easy to coordinate all our florals and accessories we needed to help bring our vision to life. We HIGHLY recommend Ashley Nicole Affair. You will be in the absolute best hands. THANK YOU AMANDA BARTZ AND THE WHOLE ANA TEAM!!!!

Hiring Ashley Nicole Affair for my wedding planning was the absolute best decision! They understood the vision for my wedding and made me feel confident and excited! After signing, I was lucky enough to be paired with Amanda, and we bonded right away. She was my literal lifeline throughout this entire process! I didn't realize how many decisions you have to make while wedding planning, big and small, and Amanda was there to guide me through every step. Amanda introduced me to amazing vendors, kept me on schedule with booking and timelines, and helped us stay within budget. The planning portal was also very helpful with resources and check lists to help brides stay on top of it. On wedding day, both Amanda and Kelli were all hands on deck to assure that the day went as smoothly as possible. They went above and beyond to make sure my vision was executed, while I was able to relax and soak in the special moments throughout the day. They truly felt like my fairy godmothers! I can't thank Amanda and Kelli enough for making my dream wedding come true and being such a pleasure to work with. I couldn't have done it without you! I highly recommend Ashley Nicole Affair for your wedding planning needs!

Ashley Nicole Affair was one of our first vendors booked for the wedding, and we are so glad we had this team by our side. Amanda was our right hand throughout the entire wedding planning process, keeping us organized and able to handle any bumps along the way with ease. I truly can't thank her enough! From meeting with us multiple times in San Antonio to answering every text with care, Amanda was incredible to work with, and kept me from any notion of "bridezilla." Wedding planning can come on pretty strong, but with the result feeling so seamless, I know we had one of the best behind us. Amanda tirelessly reminded me of what mattered most and always encouraged us to make choices that suited us first and reflect our uniqueness as a couple. I would recommend Amanda and Ashley Nicole Affair to anyone planning a wedding, as they will make it impossible not to enjoy the process!

Amanda Bartz from Ashley Nicole Affair was our wedding planner this past March. From beginning to end, she was incredibly helpful. Before we decided to hire a planner, I was very overwhelmed. I had no idea where to start! From the first call with Amanda, I knew we were in good hands. Not only is she super organized, knowledgeable, and talented, she is also amazing to be around. This instantly made me feel relaxed and excited for my wedding.   After we met her, we fell in love with her personality! She helped us every step of the way. From coordinating with vendors to helping me make decisions because I am so indecisive, and so much more. She used her past experiences to explain how one option versus the other would play out. Which really helped me feel confident in my choices. She reminded me of deadlines and really kept me on track with the planning process.   Because our venue was 3.5 hours from our house, we didn’t want to bring a lot of stuff for our wedding. We also didn’t want to be stuck with it when we left. Ashely Nicole Affair has the option to upgrade your package and has access to all of their rentals. This made our day extremely easy, and we could focus on each other while packing instead of how we were going to haul a million things. They had so many options for everything we needed. There were a few items for which we wanted to make changes to the color or wording. Amanda was happy to do it, and she made it all look absolutely beautiful. One of my favorite things they did was the look book. She had a whole PowerPoint with the layout of the ceremony, reception, and all of our decorations. I am definitely a visual person, so being able to see exactly how everything was going to look was super helpful. It also allowed me to make changes prior to the final decisions. So I had zero regrets. When it came to the big day, everything was PERFECT and exactly how we wanted. On the day of the wedding, she was on top of EVERYTHING!!  The whole day was flawless. The band we chose were some old friends from college who we love. They hadn’t done a lot of weddings, so Amanda was very helpful in coordinating with them the extra equipment they would need.  As well as setting up on the day of and coordinating with them so they knew the timeline and could make everything run smoothly. She helped us stay on schedule and made sure we had a drink in hand and a smile on our faces! It’s easy to lose track of time, and it can be uncomfortable to rush your guests or move to the next "activity." She made this easy by doing it for us!  After we walked down the aisle, a lot of people wanted pictures and to chat. But we really needed to do our couple portraits. So she kindly pushed us along and guided the guests to the reception. She also had appetizers ready for when we got to the suite. She knew it was important to us to have a moment to ourselves to breathe and just soak in that moment. So she made sure we had our drinks, apps, and that no one bothered us. She also took care of us on the way out by providing us with to-go boxes from our dinner.   Everything about Amanda was amazing! We are so blessed that she was our planner. Ashley Nicole Affair is an awesome company that is very organized, professional, and truly understands weddings and the planning process. I would absolutely recommend hiring a wedding planner, and I think they are the best one you could choose!

My interview with Ashley felt like I was talking to a long lost friend. She even helped me make some decisions BEFORE I had finished all my interviews and signed a contract. Upon more discussions, she was able to match me with Amanda as my personal planner and it was a great fit. Amanda was a true joy to work with. I can be so incredibly indecisive. I had never thought I would get married so I had no fantasy or idea of what I wanted. So I would just shoot Amanda an email or text saying what about this random thing. She would respond with words of support and a few vendors to check out. If none of the first round sounded right to me (or not available for my date) she would send a few more. But I never felt overwhelmed by too many choices. I never felt like I would make a wrong choice. She would explain some of the slight differences between them to help me know what kind of decision I would be making (cold sparks vs actual pyrotechnics, how a vendor’s process differed from another, etc). She did so much of the detail work like the physical layout of chairs, the timeline, being the contact point for vendors in the final lead up to the wedding. She did so much that I did not feel any stress about wedding planning at all. It was enjoyable and felt like I had a friend doing it with me. Which was so important because I don’t have a mom and so just kinda jumped into the deep end alone but Amanda (and Ashley with her regular check ins too) made it so I never felt that absence in planning. If I needed emotional support or reassurance, they were there without hesitation. If I needed someone to cheer something or celebrate along the way, they were there. Honestly the only thing that wasn’t perfect is the “design” with our names didn’t have enough contrast to the boxwood background for the glam photobooth that it doesn't really show up. But honestly, who even cares about that?

From the moment we started planning our wedding, we knew we were in capable hands with Amanda Bartz from Ashley Nicole Affair. Her expertise and passion for wedding planning were evident from our very first meeting. Amanda’s meticulous attention to detail ensured that no aspect of our special day was left to chance. Her organizational skills are unparalleled, and her ability to coordinate with vendors made our experience stress-free. She has a unique talent for understanding a couple’s vision and bringing it to life in a way that exceeds all expectations. What truly sets Amanda apart is her dedication to her clients. She went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect, and her warm and friendly approach. The day of the wedding was seamless, and we were able to fully immerse ourselves in the joy of the occasion, knowing Amanda was orchestrating everything behind the scenes. Choosing Amanda Bartz as our wedding planner was the best decision we made. She is a true professional who delivers a high level of service with a personal touch. We cannot recommend her enough to any couple looking for a fairy-tale wedding experience. Thank you, Amanda, for making our wedding day the most memorable day of our lives!

I don’t even know where to start! This team is truly something else! I am super OCD and an overly obnoxiously perfectionist and I found a team that appreciates understands my attention to detail! I booked our venue years ago and figured I could totally do all the planning myself within that time. Unfortunately life caught up to me and had other plans. My husband and I decided to open a storefront together, which has been over a year in the works and the final life altering event of the year to come. 🙏🏼 We also went through a devastating pregnancy that ended in the loss of our first child together, a son we named Zen. We then became pregnant with our rainbow baby girl, Willow. After she was born I realized I only had about 6 months left to plan this wedding! 🤯 I needed help! I’m an over researcher and had way too many leads on great planners! I when on a whim after scrolling through a few sites and saw that Ashley Nicole Affair was clearly very familiar with my venue! It’s been a whirlwind of amazingness since I said “please help me!” I was assigned Amanda! The sweetest cutest most amazing and charismatic woman on the planet. I may have a little girl crush and may or may not have asked her to be my MOH a time or two! She held me up when I became overwhelmed and had meltdowns, she came to my house multiple times to take loads off my hands! She single handedly budgeted my wedding, called vendors, messaged guests, stuffed and mailed all of my invitations, folded and assembled hundreds of gift boxes, she went to every appointment and meeting with me, she was assertive and professionally boss lady on wedding day (only way to deal with my people’s) and she became more than my planner, I can truly say she is my friend!

Amanda Bartz was my planner and Koty was her assistant on the day of. There aren’t enough words in the English language to describe how phenomenal Amanda and the ANA team were during my wedding planning journey. I live in Chicago, so I knew planning a wedding in a different city was going to require me to hire a wedding planner. What I didn’t expect was to end up hiring the most organized, professional, and overall amazing wedding planner and planning team in the business. RUN don’t walk to hire them as your trusted planners. I never once felt stressed about logistics, and Amanda handled my many questions and requests with such kindness. When choosing vendors, she provided me with many great options that she and her team have an established relationship with. I felt like a celebrity when I would communicate with the potential vendors because everyone in the industry knows and trusts Amanda and the Ashley Nicole Affair team. Plus, they have an awesome rental inventory that we ended up using for our seating chart and an easel. On the day of, Amanda shined bright and made everything run perfectly! Her assistant Koty also got amazing behind-the-scenes content and shared that with us. We really can’t thank Amanda and the ANA team enough for all their hard work and expertise. Thank you Amanda for making my dream wedding a reality!

Ashley, Beth, and the whole crew. Wow… what a blessing it was getting to work with them. Truly can’t say enough great things. Speaking with Ashley the first time brought a sense of relief unlike any other. And Beth executed our vision to perfection. They took our vision and ran with it. They provided us with a checklist that helps us stay organized and on top of planning our wedding so that we could get all of the vendors and rentals we wanted. Our day went off without a hitch. And that’s truly all thanks to Ashley Nicole Affair. Beth made sure my wife’s dress was bustled, a drink was always in hand, the late night snacks arrived on time, and all of the other small details that could easily be forgotten. I really can’t thank them enough.

From our very first phone call with Ashley we knew we found the perfect planning service for our wedding. I actually cried tears of joy on the call because I finally felt like I met someone who was as Type A as me and truly would take care of everything in between so my husband and I could focus on what was really important to us! We were connected with Beth who is literally super woman. She would answer any of our questions, even if it were late at night or a weekend. Beth made sure our wedding day went perfect. If something went wrong we have no idea, we had the best night of our lives. I can’t tell you how many guests from our wedding told us that our wedding was their favorite that they’ve ever been to (& I can tell you it was because of the ANA team)! The time,thought, and care that Beth and Ashley put into their work is truly remarkable. They are not only kind and wonderful people but they are also extremely talented in this industry. Through their connections to the Austin wedding industry we booked (in our opinion) the best vendors out there for our wedding day! I cannot say enough great things about ANA. Choosing them as our wedding planner was the BEST decision we made for our wedding. I could go on and on… we love ANA. I could not recommend them more.

I could not recommend Ashley Nicole Affair enough. Our wedding planner, Beth, made planning as stress-free as possible and made our wedding day an absolute perfect dream. Beth was attentive to detail, open to all my ideas, and made my vision a million times better than I could have ever done on my own. She made our wedding space look incredible and I did not have to lift a finger or stress at all on my special day. I highly recommend working with ANA!

I cannot recommend ANA enough and, specifically, Amanda Bartz!!! I interviewed a handful of wedding planners and this was probably one of the hardest vendors for me to book, but after my call with Ashely, I knew I was in good hands! Amanda was absolutely incredible!!! First off, she was literally always available for me and responded so quickly to all my questions, concerns, etc. She dealt with both my mom and I, who are very anxious people, with such a calmness that I was literally NEVER stressed about my big day. On the day of the wedding, everything went absolutely perfect because of Amanda and Coty. Amanda made sure my day was perfect from helping me take off my shoes and put on my veil all the way to putting every last item of mine in the getaway car with zero disruption to the wedding. Every detail that I had sent inspo pics of to Amanda, was executed perfectly. Amanda had the most incredible timeline and worked behind the scenes with all of my vendors to make sure they knew what to do and where to be and when on our wedding day. Even my husband, who hardly was involved in wedding planning, couldn’t say enough things about Amanda!!! Also, not to mention all the fun raw moments both Amanda and Coty took pictures of on our big day that we didn’t even ask them to do! Couldn’t recommend Amanda and Coty enough!!!

I can't say enough good things about ANA and specifically, Beth Hand!!! Beth was actually the lead planner for my best friends wedding in 2022, which is what led me to ANA in the first place right after I got engaged. Beth was assigned as my lead planner over a year out from my wedding and from day one, she was there for me for any and all of my many, many questions. While I had a pretty clear vision of what I wanted and what vendors I was wanting to use, she was so helpful in providing context and letting me bounce ideas off of her in how we could make my vision come to life. I felt absolutely no stress the week or day of the wedding because I trusted her completely and knew she would have everything perfectly organized based on all her experience working with these vendors. Nothing makes you feel better as a bride than hearing "Oh we love working with Beth!" when I would tell my vendors who my planner was. Olivia assisted Beth day of and also jumped right in and was so helpful in keeping us on track with our timeline and keeping things moving throughout the day. The day would not have been possible without either of them and I am so grateful to have had such rockstars as part of our big day!

We interviewed a handful of wedding planners and are SO happy we went with Ashley Nicole Affair (ANA). From the 1st introductory call to our grand exit of the wedding night, they went above and beyond. Our Planner, Beth, was AMAZING and was there for me for every text, email, and question. Her Assistant, Kelli, did a fabulous job the day of as well. I truly felt at ease on my wedding day knowing that the ANA ladies were on site. I also utilized ANA for my florals (Fleur Affair) and rented several items from their warehouse. This "one stop shop" option is unbeatable. Hands down the best experience!

From my very first call with Ashley in January of this year, she put all my anxiety and stresses about planning a wedding at ease. I knew there would be stress that came with planning a wedding regardless, but planning one between multiple time zones and countries was another level. We started planning our wedding while I was still living in DC, a few months later I relocated to Tunisia with Reece and then just two months after that, we landed in India. Ashley never stressed out about having our calls or meetings or texts at crazy hours, she was always available and answered every single one of my questions and was so supportive of my ideas and thoughts for the wedding, but also was such a resource for recommendations and additional ideas to conducer for the wedding. I truly am forever grateful to Ashley and your whole team for being the biggest support throughout our planning process and on the day of our wedding in Santa Fe. Ashley is truly one of the most remarkable people I have met. I know she was juggling multiple clients and priorities, personal and professional ones, throughout the planning purpose, but she never let that show. When we were speaking, I felt like I was her focus and she listened to me so clearly, that when I showed up at our wedding, it was everything I wanted and more. It was perfect for us, and exactly what I wanted. The actual day of our wedding was a complete blur for me, truly. But, looking back at it now, and seeing all those smiling faces, and hearing such wonderful comments from all of our family and closest friends about how much they loved the whole weekend in Santa Fe, I always say I have to thank Ashley. I would never have been able to plan our wedding without her, and I am so grateful I found Ashley Nicole Affair! From vendor recommendations to handling all logistics for transportation to also handling all of our flowers, I really cannot thank her and her team enough - truly.

Wow - what a job Amanda & Olivia did leading up to our big day. It’s hard to put into words how grateful we are for them & how everything week/day of went so perfectly without us having to think or worry about ANY of it. Above and beyond would be an understatement. Luckily a close friend told us for her wedding a year before that her biggest regret was not getting a planner… we took that info and lucked out by getting the absolute best around! Can’t thank you all and this group enough!

Ashley and her team made the whole wedding process so smooth! They handled everything with so much ease and clarity which made the months leading up to the wedding so stress free and ENJOYABLE. I would recommend them x1000 to any bride who is wanting the freedom to make the decisions about how her day looks and feels without having to make those decisions come to life! The ANA team are absolutely worth the investment! My family was so grateful to be able to soak in our day without having to worry about its flow or the event as a whole!

The Ashely Nicole Affair team was amazing. Amanda was my lead day of coordinator/planner and then she had an assistant name Weslyn. I was able to hold meetings and text Amanda whenever I had a question or thought well before and up to the wedding day. She also had great resources and ideas when I was stuck. She took over communicating to the vendors and keeping everyone one in the loop. The day of the wedding with Amanda and Weslyn from my point of view and my husband went fantastic- from when they arrived before the ceremony to when it was breaking things down and getting home after reception. Amanda & Weslyn worked well with our bridal party, family, friends, and other vendors. Amanda always checked on me and communicated very well with DJ and Photographers as things transitioned throughout the night. And if Amanda was busy with something, Wesley was there to help. I chose Ashley Nicole Affair due to their expertise and experience in the industry. I wanted this kind of help because they were able to help me with the things I didn't know that I didn't know. My husband and I certainly recommend them. Thank you Amanda, Wesley, and Ashley Nicole Affair team for making one of the biggest days of my life seamless, fun, and smooth. Big hugs -Shanti

My husband and I could not have had a more perfect wedding day. We had our wedding in Mid/Late April at The Arlo and I can not believe how smoothly everything went and that is all thanks to Amanda!! She made our day so special, made sure we were taken care of all throughout the planning process, and kept us going on the special day. We had the Full Service Design planning that came with Decor Rentals and it was perfect. I would pay that price again and again as all the rentals were hand picked and came together to execute my vision for the day so well. I love the look book that is created to help see the complete design vision and it was crazy how our real table decor looks exactly like the look book version. Our other vendors loved how organized everything was. Any question we had, Amanda always had an answer to. On the day of, Rachel was alongside Amanda to execute the wedding and she was incredibly helpful as well (all while being pregnant)!!! If there were issues on the day of, we honestly have no clue because of how professional and flawless this team is. We felt so taken care of all day long by the girls and I would do it all over again. We have recommended ANA to every couple starting the wedding planning process because you can not go wrong with this group.

I can not recommend Ashley Nicole Affair enough! The entire team is phenomenal. From my first introduction call with Ashley I knew they were going to be amazing. I chose the month of coordinator package and had the pleasure of working with Amanda throughout my planning process. Amanda was extremely helpful, supportive, and responsive. She promptly answered all my questions, coordinated with all my vendors, and gave me helpful advice throughout my planning process. My mom and MIL met Amanda at our tasting and were very complimentary of her. Amanda is an INCREDIBLE planner! On the day of the wedding I worked with Weslyn and Amanda, they were so helpful and organized. Thank you so much ladies for making my day as incredible as it was. It would not have been as amazing without you! If you want the most perfect wedding, Ashley Nicole Affair team will make that a reality!

Amanda from ANA was seriously the life saver we never knew we needed throughout our entire wedding planning process. The entire ANA team was fantastic and so great from start to end -and we feel so lucky that we got to work with Amanda specifically. Any time we needed her to do anything, even if it was just giving some random advice on a random day, she was always there to help and support us at a moment's notice. She worked with us to help shape and discover our vision, and then to bring it all to life in such a beautiful and incredible way. Our day was perfect, and it wouldn't have been everything it was without Amanda. We can't recommend ANA enough and seriously miss getting to talk to and spend time with Amanda! There was nothing we asked for that was too much or too small - and we were treated with so much respect and grace throughout the whole process. We can't thank ANA and Amanda enough for everything!!

If you are reading this review and trying to decide on your wedding day planner, look no further! If I can help future brides make a tough decision easier, I highly recommend Ashley Nicole Affair. When I first reached out to ANA, I was greeted by Ashley. Ashley is an incredible, energetic, and genuine person who has built an unbelievable team of women behind her and when I mean unbelievable, I don't say that lightly. With ANA, you get a team, not just one person, who helps in their specialized area of expertise - a subject matter expert if you will. Beth helped us through our rentals process, Amanda, Rachel, & Erin with planning and coordination, and Liz with social inspiration. You really do get it all and they absolutely take care of you. There are many different types of brides out there, but if you're like me, I was more of a hands on bride with a clear vision and came to the ANA team with a full design board baked out, which the ANA team brought to life. Even though I had so many little details - Rachel & Erin helped me uncover details I would have never thought of. They helped through critical recommendations and negotiations from the first day through the day of the wedding. For instance, they helped us negotiate with our videographers CloudCraft Studios (who were also amazing!) when they were fully booked on our day. Because ANA is well known around the wedding industry, they were able to pull some strings for us and make our dreams come true with CloudCraft since they had a long term relationship.  Additionally, when ANA mentioned unlimited communication, they mean it! Whenever I texted or emailed them, I would find a quick response back with ideas, recommendations, guidance, and answers. Rachel & Erin were incredibly responsive, especially when it was coming down to the last few days leading up to the wedding. When it came to the big day, the day was everything that I dreamed of, coming to life. If anything went wrong, I didn't notice a single thing because Rachel & Erin took care of it without our knowledge. They were absolutely incredible and I couldn't recommend Ashley Nicole Affair enough.

Great team at Ashley Nicole Affair. They were incredibly thorough and thought of everything. On the wedding day, Beth handled it all without me even having to think about it. We had the best day ever with many thanks to Beth and the team at ANA.

If you want an absolutely hands on, wonderfully kind, and extremely knowledgeable team to help you plan your big day look no further! Ashley and her team worked so hard and made themselves so available to hold my hand and walk me through every step of the way. I worked with Beth specifically who answered all my many questions with patience, gave great advice on how to make sure the vibes were perfect, and even brought me a coffee during our reception! She and Rachel W. really made my wedding glide smoothly and took so so much stress off mine and my husbands shoulders. Whenever someone has asked me if getting a wedding/day of coordinator is worth it I say absolutely and go with Ashley Nicole Affair!

I'm truly at a loss for words because Ashley Nicole Affair exceeded all expectations and deserves more than just 5 stars! From the moment we booked with them, we felt a sense of relief and excitement. Planning a wedding for 270 guests at Camp Lucy's Ian's Chapel is no small feat, but with Amanda Bartz leading the charge, we knew we were in good hands. Amanda is an absolute rockstar! She was always available to answer any question we had, and even ones we didn't know we had. Her attention to detail and unwavering calm under pressure ensured that our wedding went off without a hitch - all thanks to Amanda and the rest of the Ashley Nicole Affair team. Throughout the planning process, Amanda maintained open communication with us and was by our side every step of the way. Her positive attitude was contagious, and she always knew just what to say to put our minds at ease. She treated our vendors/families with empathy and care, ensuring that everyone felt heard and valued. Amanda truly went above and beyond to ensure that every detail was executed flawlessly. Thanks to her, our wedding day was unforgettable and we wish we could relive that magic over and over again. If you're in search of a wedding planner, look no further than Ashley Nicole Affair. They are truly exceptional and will make your wedding dreams a reality. We couldn't be happier with our decision to work with them!

Can’t say enough good things about my experience with Kerri as my wedding planner. I found her relatively last minute to help plan a 3-day mixed religion wedding. Kerri was incredible and whipped together vendors, venue and a plan I was really happy with. When our venue unexpectedly canceled on us and we were forced to move part of our wedding to a whole new city, Kerri was an absolute force and once again created a whole new plan from scratch. She was so fun to work with and made the process absolutely zero stress for me. Also really really loved the vendors she picked for hair (Diana Rose Hair) and photography (Coryn Kiefer). Truly cannot recommend enough.

We worked with Kerri Osborne is Albuquerque, NM and she was incredible. Not only did she take care of all details smoothly and kindly, but the bride had a medical emergency during the ceremony and she handled the twist of events perfectly. We are so impressed by her and her team and would highly recommend.

There are not enough words to describe how absolutely incredible Ashley Nicole Affair is. From the moment I spoke with Ashley to the first email I received from Amanda Bartz, our lead planner, I knew I was in the right hands. We asked ANA to step in about 4-5 months before the wedding, and we felt so taken care of and special! They took (what at that time) was an extremely stressful situation, where I almost cancelled the wedding, and turned it into literally the wedding of my dreams. Amanda jumped right in, fixed all of the issues we were currently having, and set up an amazing timeline and list of important information which really made the entire process seamless. We were able to utilize all of ANA's services including their countless vendor referrals, their own rentals which we used for decor, table numbers and seating charts, and even had their AMAZING creative calligrapher on staff (Liz of Green Girl Design Co.) design an incredibly unique seating chart and table numbers. I truly cannot recommend this group enough. Amanda absolutely crushed it - from the first moment I walked into Premiere and met her to sort our rentals, I knew we were safe and that our vision would be respected and brought to life. She even helped us set up an amazing candy bar at our wedding which was an absolute HIT! It was demolished before dinner even started. Because of Amanda and the ANA team, I literally did not stress on the day of my wedding - I had no worries or concern about how things would flow or get set up because I knew it would be handled perfectly. My parents were so impressed with how amazing Amanda and her team was that they still talk about it weeks after the wedding! Thank you thank you thank you Amanda and the ANA team for allowing me to have the most perfect wedding day!

If you are looking for an amazing wedding planning team, look no further than Ashley Nicole Affair! As a wedding photographer, I know how many details and months go into planning a wedding in order for it to be a success, and Ashley ALWAYS delivers! Any time we get an inquiry from a couple and they mention Ashley Nicole Affair is the planner, we let out a huge sigh of relief, knowing it will be an awesome day! We've also been lucky enough to work with her team members, Amanda and Beth! They always greet us with smiles and have the best attitudes ever and truly love their job! We appreciate that Ashley, Amanda, and Beth always involve us when communicating about the day-of timeline. This makes our jobs as photographers SO much easier. They are *the* dream team! Invest in these talented people NOW!

Working with Ashley Nicole Affair for my wedding was a wonderful experience. From our very first informational phone call, I could tell I would be in good hands. Amanda was our day-of coordinator and she was amazing to work with. She was so organized, thoughtful, understanding, supportive, and helpful throughout the entire process. Things went so incredibly smoothly on the day of my wedding, and I know it's because I worked with Ashley Nicole Affair.

I knew from the moment I talked to Ashley that ANA was right for us. I had so many questions and she made me feel completely taken care of immediately. No question too small. ANA has all the services and more you could need in a planner. They provide countless vendor referrals, their own rentals which we used for welcome signs, table numbers and seating charts. They even have an AMAZING creative calligrapher on staff that we worked with on our stationary, named Liz of Green Girl Design Co. Beth and team brought my vision to the finish line. Taking us to Premiere to sort through linen & flatware rentals, flawlessly organizing & coordinating all additional vendors and finalizing all of our day of details. From setting up our bus with our DIY “Just Married” sign and cans to all the other details we brought in (which were a lot!) - everything was just as envisioned. Beth even helped connect my dad with musicians at the University of Texas to surprise me with a live performance of a song he wrote day of, in addition to documenting so many details and videos for us throughout our big day. I truly cannot recommend this group enough. Look no further - ANA is IT. Thank you Ashley, Beth, Liz and everyone else who helped make our day so special. My family cannot thank you enough. ❤️

Ashley Nicole was such a key part of my wedding planning experience. From day 1, I was made welcome to ask any and all questions. Mandy's month-of (and especially day-of) coordinating took so much stress off of my plate I was almost bored leading up to the big day! Even my guests were impressed at how smoothly she kept everything running, from switching up decor between the ceremony and reception to making a tequila run to keep the margaritas flowing.

We had an amazing experience with Ashley Nicole Affair. Shout out to Ashley, Beth and their team for making our wedding experience easy and without any hiccups. From the logistics to the most beautiful fall floral decorations, everything was fantastic. Our friends and family are still talking about our wedding day. Would highly recommend! 5/5 Stars.

My experience with Ashley and her team was amazing from the start. Ashley and I bonded instantly over the phone and I knew she was the girl for me. Amanda took over day off and was literally my savior. She completely handled everything that I was too stressed to deal with and she did it with ease. She saw my vision and made sure that it came true no matter what. The saint she is withstood a downpour on my wedding day, getting completely drenched (her hair was still cute after which was super unfair) making sure that everything was set perfectly and in time for our ceremony. She let me have my way when other vendors were trying to change the vision and direction and she made sure I got what I wanted. She never rushed me or made me feel like what I wanted was dumb or insignificant and I can’t thank her enough for that. She took complete care of me, my groom along with our entire wedding party & family and we will forever be grateful to her for making our wedding day absolutely perfect. Are we besties now?! Cause I hope so 🤍 Book the team, I promise you won’t regret it

We’re the perfect example of you get what you pay for. Started our wedding journey trying to save as much money as we could and opted for hiring a wedding coordinator instead of a planner (we didn’t know the difference at the time). Well… it took us 2 months of achieving absolutely nothing to realize that we had made the wrong choice. Some Google searches and we came across Ashley Nicole Affair. We jumped on a call with them and immediately realized these ladies knew their stuff. Our expectation was to hire somebody that would take us by the hand every step of the way and that’s what ANA delivered. Although that’s not what impressed us the most… We know we all make mistakes and sh*t usually happens along the way; and a lot can be said about a person’s character and values depending on how she deals with it. Well, Ashley did an amazing job navigating through the curve balls life threw at us while planning our wedding and we respect that. That being said, Ashley has built her team with a great system behind it. Everybody knows what needs to be done, how, why, and where. No matter what, they got you covered. Kerri and Ashley planned and built our dream wedding from the ground up. The amount of rentals that ANA has for your special day is stunning! … and really helpful! Ashley crafted beautiful florals and nailed our vision. Amanda, Starla, and Diandra, were the coordinators present the day of our wedding and they were incredible too! They made everything super easy, fluent, natural, and made us feel taken care of. Not to mention the 3 of them were super sweet and everybody at the wedding loved them. Because of Ashley Nicole Affair, we enjoyed our wedding day 100% stress free!

Ok, so let me start off by saying that there is a reason Ashley and her team have a 5 star rating at almost 200 reviews and honestly I’m not sure what else I can say that is different from every over couple who is raving about them. However, I will try my best to convey my gratitude and talk about my experience- and buckle in because it’s a long one. I personally loved every second of planning my wedding and found many of the tasks enjoyable that friends of mine hated doing. However, when it came to turning that Pinterest board and my ideas into a realistic plan, I was helpless. I knew I needed help and definitely wanted someone for the day of my wedding to run the show (Trust me, if you are on the fence about having a planner do not skip hiring one)! I booked ANA for the design full service planning about 2 years before my actual wedding and it was the perfect package for what I needed! During the entire time (that’s right, not a month before your wedding or some limited communication package) I could email Ashley and ask for recommendations, advice or really anything! Her response time is also unreal which is just amazing. Furthermore, her portal and documents are perfection when it comes to staying organized. Ashley and Beth created an absolute dream look-book from my ideas and Pinterest boards using their rentals (I essentially exclusively decorated my wedding with their inventory). When it came time to my actual wedding and saw everything in person, it took my breath away. My guests described it as a “fairytale wedding” which couldn’t sum it up better. They nailed it. I had Beth as my lead planner and Mandy as my second planner during the wedding day. And holy moly you guys… when I tell you that if it were not for Beth the last 2-3 months before my wedding I don’t know how I would have gotten through it. Seriously, I can’t even think of a way to convey how amazing she was anytime I needed help or had a change in plans (or another change…). She was on top of it! During the wedding I knew I was in the best of hands and was able to truly enjoy the day and not worry about a single thing. I mean… zero stress at a wedding for the bride?! Unreal! But Beth and Mandy made that happen for us. If you’ve stuck through this review to this point you’re either a couple still deciding or Ashley and her team. For my couples out there, you have found your wedding planner. Stop looking and reach out already. Best vendor decision I made and worth every penny. For Ashley, Beth, Mandy and her team… thank you. From the bottom of our hearts you are doing amazing work and are true professionals in this industry. We were so lucky to have you a part of our journey and wish you all the continued success and love.

Terrific to work with! Extremely responsive, professional, and positive throughout. They instilled confidence with being organized, provided guidance while balancing our preferences, and were always prepared for any of the twists and turns of planning. 10/10 would recommend.

From the moment I reached out to Ashley Nicole Affair and described to Ashley my complete cluelessness as to where to start with wedding planning, she was the warmest and most supportive soul I instantly knew working with her and her team would be a joy and lifesaver. We went with the Design Full-Service Planning package and I am so thankful we did. We worked mainly hand in hand with Beth for the 9 months leading up to our wedding and she was the most helpful and calming person, any worry or fear i had she would immediately put me at ease and she was so responsive it was amazing. She put together the most beautiful design plan for our whole wedding and although i was extra picky when it came to little changes i wanted to make when i tell you i lost my breath when i first saw our wedding in person I truly mean it. Beth took everything we had been discussing and brainstorming and dreaming and made it all 10x more beautiful than i could have ever imagined. All of our vendors raved about how wonderful and easy it was to work with her and I just feel like she was the friend you always need when wedding planning who is also very much getting the job done. We also worked with Rachel on our wedding day and she was so sweet and so wonderful. Anytime my drink was close to running out i would spy Rachel heading our way to fill us up and check in on anything we may need. Highly recommend!!

Keri from Ashley Nicole Affair was amazing to work with. She made planning for our wedding enjoyable. She was able to guide us and step in when needed with vendors and our venue. We loved her team and highly recommend.

Kerri and Ashley from Ashley Nicole Affair did the most amazing job for my wedding in September in Taos, New Mexico. I never could have imagined a more perfect day then what these ladies gave me! They went above and beyond through the planning and kept me calm and organized. Their decor layout turned out so beautiful even better then I was expecting. We have got so many compliments on our wedding with how smooth everything went. I would 100% recommend them to any bride to be! Thank you girls for making my wedding absolutely perfect!

Ashley Nicole Affair was incredible and helped make our wedding day go so smoothly. I can't say enough good things about working with our coordinator, Amanda, who kept us on track during the planning process and was very responsive throughout all of our communications. Our guests are still commenting on how much fun they had on our big day!

Amanda was my ANGEL from start to finish! She calmed me down during my panic moments, kept me on track when I got busy/frantic, helped immensely with the most amazing vendor recommendations, then communicated on my behalf with many of my vendors, dealt with my crazy scatter-brained self, and on wedding day, she and Rachel absolutely KILLED it putting our whole vision together. There were a couple of hiccups on wedding day that I never knew a thing about until the next day (see transportation below) because she handled them before they could become an issue. I am beyond grateful that Amanda was there for me, and can't thank her enough for all of her help!

From my very first phone call with Ashley, I knew I needed Ashley Nicole Affair to be part of our big day. She made me feel heard with both my budget and my vision. She was quick to make recommendations and answer all of my questions. I only wish I had booked her sooner in the planning process. Fast forward to the month before our wedding when we were introduced to Beth and Helen- our coordinators for wedding day. These two were a dream team. Our vision for the wedding came together perfectly with their help. Not only did they execute the plan, but they did it while feeling like a friend. The day of the wedding, I was able to be completely present with family and friends knowing these two were on my team. I cannot say enough wonderful things. Thank you so much to Ashley, Beth, and Helen. You made my wedding dreams come true!

Ashley Nicole Affair did such a great job with our wedding. Beth was our coordinator and helped me feel seen, heard, and valued throughout the process and made me feel like I had an advocate with vendors. Beth was also on her feet and hustling during our wedding, my family and guests were so impressed by her. She didn’t pressure me when I fell short or when we forgot things, and she helped keep things streamlined from planning and prep to ceremony to reception exit. I look back and I’m continually grateful for her and the company she represents! If you have questions about their services or anything they may be able to offer, just reach out and they will be happy to elaborate and explain all the big and little things, and help bring it all to life. You’ll be so happy you did! It all started with a phone call, and now I get to look back on the wedding of my dreams and treasure those memories forever.

We worked with Kerri (head planner), Randi and Charese in Albuquerque for our wedding reception. We live out of state and Kerri was extremely helpful from day one in making sure that everything was taken care of for our big day. She even scheduled a walk through several months before the reception as we were in town visiting family. On the day of, the team was organized, detail oriented and attentive to us and our guests. We had some issues with other vendors and Kerri and her team took care of everything to make sure that we could enjoy our evening. They even got me Tums and Sprite when my stomach was upset. Our only regret is not getting the full service package. We highly recommend Ashley Nichole Affair.

I can’t speak highly enough of my absolute amazing coordinator Amanda. She was there for us from start to finish. She was incredible to work with. From all vendors we dealt with in preparation for our wedding, Amanda was by far my favorite. Thank you Amanda and your assistant Mandy for making our day absolutely perfect, you guys are a dream team.

I have worked in the wedding industry for several years and have worked with Ashley Nicole Affair several times. I am always impressed with each one of their team members. They are all very organized, professional and super sweet! I highly recommend Ashley Nicole Affair to anyone looking for their dream wedding planner!

Ashley and her team are the best wedding planners around and we are so happy we picked them for our June wedding at the Allan House. We had the "month of coordination" package but our planners (Beth & Rachel) of the team went above and beyond what they needed to do. First of all, they were available to talk to our vendors starting 60 days before our wedding. I felt we could reach out to them with last minute problems and everything was handled. Beth and Rachel were SO professional and uplifting on the day of the wedding. My husband and I were so impressed with how seamless the day went and I highly recommend them to my friends who are also planning weddings!! The day wouldn't have been as enjoyable and perfect without them. PS we loved their glam photo booth and they had so many rental options to choose from for those last minute things that come up.

There are not enough positive things to say about Ashley Nicole Affair and the outstanding planning services they provided for my daughter’s wedding. We worked mostly with Ashley during the planning process and then had Beth, Amanda and Helen who pulled off a flawless event! As I boarded the bus to leave the reception, I remember saying to Beth, “I cannot think of one thing that didn’t go as we planned it” and that is saying something for an event that we planned long distance with 125 of the 200 guests traveling to be with us on the special day. Ashley Nicole Affair held our hands each step of the way with suggestions, gentle reminders and much needed direction. We used the Design Full-Service Planning option which was perfect for our out-of-town wedding. The provided all of the rentals for the event which was a god send to not have to transport those items to Texas. When we had our meeting two months before the wedding, it was such a relief to pass off the planning to their amazing team to complete! I highly recommend Ashley Nicole Affair. It was the single most important decision that we made which allowed us to pull off such an amazing wedding that both my daughter and I got to enjoy as much as the guests!

Let’s just start right off by saying… YOU NEED TO BOOK ASHLEY NICOLE AFFAIR!!!! I literally could not have done it without these ladies. By “it”, I mean planning the most amazing, magical, relaxed, fun wedding of my life. From the beginning of my engagement, I was just not really into the “wedding planning process”. I found it to be overwhelming and stressful, and this is coming from someone who loves planning things in normal life. When my mom and I found ANA, our world was rocked in the best way and we booked them for Partial Planning so they could design everything. We immediately clicked with Ashley and Beth and they quickly put us in touch with other vendors through their extensive network in Austin. When we were looking into floral vendors, Ashley jumped in to let us know about Fleur Affair (book them too!) and since we loved and trusted her so much, we knew she was also the best one to do our florals. Ashley and Beth were so responsive to my mom and I’s hundreds of emails and really helped us feel at ease. Fast forward to April 2022, a few months before my wedding. We finally got to meet Beth in person (we do not live in TX so hadn’t even seen the venue in person yet) at our venue walkthrough and she blew me away! She was SO organized and prepared. She covered every little detail with us, and I knew we had someone in our corner who cared just as much as we did. Having Beth take over the vendor coordination after that meeting was truly a god-send so that I could focus on the 100 other things you have to do before your wedding :) June 18, 2022 was the best day of my life and I owe SO much of that to Beth, Ashley, Amanda, Helen and Liz. THANK YOU SO MUCH ANA TEAM!

My wife and I HIGHLY recommend Ashley Nicole Affair. The team was amazing from the beginning. We hired ANA late in the game (almost 1 month out) and they ramped up in no time. Amanda led the walkthrough, rehearsal and the day-of coordination with Rachel flawlessly. It was a complex wedding with a lot of details, and Amanda was on top of it all at every second. Always an effective communicator and mediator.

Best service we booked for our wedding hands down! Amanda and Rachel were the coordinators for our big day in late May 2022 and they went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of! This allowed us, our family, and the bridal party a chance to enjoy the evening. Our wedding was a fairy tale day, Amanda and Ashley (we used Fleur Affair as our florist) took our vision and made it even better in real life. We can not thank Amanda, Rachel, Beth, and Ashley enough for their support, guidance, execution, and white glove service. We highly recommend their service for anyone who is planning their wedding.

Our wedding on 5.28.22 went off without a hitch thanks to the Ashley Nicole Affair team! I cannot think of one thing that did not go according to plan. From initial consultation to post-wedding follow up, we felt cared for and prioritized. Beth was assigned to us and reassured me all along way during the planning process. They give you all the resources you may ever need and more. They are responsive and made sure all our vendors were confirmed and taken care of. They were miracle-workers on the day of and made sure my husband and I enjoyed our day without worry. We couldn't have done it without them! Not to mention a great price for a 3-month coordinator. 12/10 recommend.
