5 stars and I wish I could give more.
If you are an Austin bride doing your research, STOP what you are doing and book Mallorie and the Ashley Nicole Affair team right now. I mean...
it.
I discovered ANA through Villa Antonia's preferred vendor list and came to their open house with a plan. I had done my research, I had my list, and I was ready to interview and feel out the vibes of every single coordinator on that list. Then I met Mallorie first. That was it. I never bothered vetting anyone else. I was so confident in her that I booked them in 2024 for my 2026 wedding and never looked back.
Over two years of planning, Mallorie became so much more than a coordinator. She answered every question I couldn't find online, gave me honest recommendations about Austin wedding standards, and made every single meeting genuinely fun. Her own wedding aesthetic is absolutely gorgeous, and she helped me find a way to draw inspiration from it while still making my day completely my own.
Mallorie went on maternity leave during our planning process, and I never once felt anxious about it. That says everything about the trust she had built with me. Ashley, the owner, stepped in seamlessly and was just as fast, attentive, and wonderful. This team does not miss a beat, no matter what.
What really sets them apart is their calm. On the day of, and even at the rehearsal, when small things didn't go according to plan, they handled everything with grace and always had a backup plan ready. I never once felt stressed. Not once.
I am genuinely sad the planning process is over. I still get the urge to reach out just to chat, and honestly I hope we find a reason to work together again in the future. If you want a planner who is talented, knowledgeable, and someone you will actually love spending the next year or two of your life with, look no further. HIGHEST possible recommendation.

elpful with anything and everything, and just genuinely one of the kindest humans. I said it on our wedding day and I’ll say it again: everything looked just like my Pinterest board, and that couldn’t have happened without her. She even gifted me an essential oil when I was at peak stress – still obsessed and using it! I HIGHLY recommend ANA for any brides looking for planning help for their big day. Love you, Barbara. Thank you so much for everything!! 🤍

You have to book with ANA! One of the best wedding decisions we made.
To be honest, I was unsure in the beginning if we needed a planning service. Our venue came with a day of plan...
ner, and it was another expense. However, a friend highly recommended ANA, and now post-wedding I can say YOU NEED TO BOOK THEM. Mallorie helped us out with the initial planning and rentals, and Eva was our day of coordinator. Both amazing ladies that made sure everything was perfect… from running rehearsal, setting up the welcome table, coordinating vendors, keeping you on schedule, bustling your dress, etc. We had a room flip during our wedding and Eva made sure everything was in the right spot in a short amount of time.
I cannot stress how thankful we are for ANA and 1000% recommend them for your wedding!

Honestly don’t even know where to start — Mallorie was beyond amazing! From the very first meeting, she made us feel completely at ease and genuinely cared about every little detai...
l of our big day. It wasn’t just about organizing and coordinating — she went so far above and beyond her normal duties to make sure everything was perfect.
Whether it was calming us down when things got stressful, handling last-minute hiccups with total grace, or simply checking in to make sure we were okay, Mallorie was there every step of the way. Her warmth, professionalism, and attention to detail made the whole experience so enjoyable — we truly felt like we were in the best hands possible.
Our wedding day went off without a hitch, and that’s entirely thanks to Mallorie. We can’t imagine having done it without her. If you’re looking for a wedding planner who genuinely cares and will go the extra mile (and then some!), look no further.
Thank you again, Mallorie— you made our dream day a reality, and we’ll be forever grateful! 💖

pful with the initial planning of securing vendors and providing layouts/timelines. They took our vision and made it all come to fruition.
The wedding day went beyond all expectations. Mallorie and Eva were rockstars! Their calm demeanor and forward thinking allowed us to enjoy the day. Due to unfortunate circumstances, the groom and I had to miss out on a few hours of the reception. Mallorie and Eva were able to continue the event so all our guests enjoyed themselves until we returned. Their ability to quickly pivot and redirect was much appreciated.
We were blown away by their professionalism and we highly recommend ANA and Mallorie!

Working with Kerri from Ashley Nicole Affair was one of the best decisions we made during our wedding planning process. As two busy professionals, we were completely overwhelmed by...
the idea of planning a wedding—especially in just 8 months—and there’s truly no way it would have happened without her.
Kerri connected us with the perfect vendors, kept us on track, and made everything feel organized and manageable. Her calm, confident presence and deep knowledge of the Santa Fe wedding scene gave us so much peace of mind.
On the big day, everything came together seamlessly. Thanks to Kerri and the Ashley Nicole Affair team, we were able to truly relax and enjoy every moment. We are endlessly grateful and recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone planning a wedding—especially from a distance.

r). Not only did my husband and I notice, but we had GUESTS complimenting us on our planners. Saying how on top of it they were but never rude or pushy. Lighthearted but always one step ahead of every variable.
It rained and rained all morning and they had backup plans for everything. In the afternoon, it turned into a beautiful day but I had full confidence that the team would have been able to make the absolute best of the situation had things turned out otherwise.
ANAs resources are really unmatched with an entire inventory of rentals, very well priced photo booth etc. And they created my dream seating chart in a snap.
I don't know how people throw themselves a wedding without a planner. ZERO regrets about paying for a team behind you. If you are in doubt, you can book ANA with confidence.
Thank you for everything!<3

Ashley Nicole Affair team is an excellent company!Mallorie was the wedding planner for our special day, and we couldn't have asked for a better planner along with her entire team. ...
From the start, their communication style was incredibly helpful, kind, and organized. They were detail-oriented, hard-working, and truly creative in their approach, always thinking of every little detail and staying several steps ahead of us throughout the planning process. We had to switch wedding planners about 3 months out due to some unseen circumstances, but the transition was flawless and reassuring. Mallorie was technically our second planner, and she jumped on board so eagerly and made sure to smooth out any wrinkle or concern we had. Mallorie made our wedding day absolutely seamless and ensured that everything went off without a hitch. She thought of things before they happened, things that did not even cross our mind, handles the vendors expertly, and was always there when we needed her. We are forever grateful for their incredible service and highly recommend them to any couple planning their big day.

I’m the type of person that reads dozens and dozens of reviews before I purchase anything at all, so if someone like me is reading this, this is your sign to stop considering anyon...
e else and choose ANA. Honestly, I almost never leave reviews myself, but I promise I am not exaggerating when I say hiring ANA for their wedding planning services, and in particular Amanda as our principal planner, was far and away the BEST decision we made during this entire process.
We started the wedding planning process in October 2023 and were married 2/22/25 at Villa Antonia. We chose the partial planning package because I had time to research vendors on my own and put together the bigger picture, but I wanted someone that could help guide me through what is actually a very complicated process. From day one, Amanda was thorough, organized, patient, and a true joy to work with. She was always extremely timely in her responses to my texts or emails and was an incredible resource to have. I was also planning the wedding from Chicago where we live, so we weren’t able to sample or see all the things we wanted in person before signing contracts with vendors and instead relied on Amanda’s experience (and everything she recommended was amazing). Her experience with vendors in Austin, and specifically with Villa Antonia, was invaluable. If she didn’t know the answer already (which was extremely rare), she was quick to ask around and get back to me. She made sure my dream for the wedding took priority and was always supportive while remaining mindful and providing all the facts for us to make informed decisions to stay within the budget we’d set. I can’t say enough good things about her - I just love and appreciate her so much.
I consider myself a very organized person, but I know without a doubt my wedding day would not have been the same without Amanda, Mallorie, and Eva’s help. Amanda setup several meetings toward the end and created an extremely comprehensive timeline for the day, which she shared with all of our vendors so everyone was on the same page. She was even kind enough to let me ship things to her home (props for dance floor, signs, picture frames, etc) and set them all up so we got to fully enjoy our wedding day start to finish without ever having to lift a finger. We’re so grateful to Mallorie for making sure we got to experience every aspect of our wedding (even as we got tipsier and begged to go back onto the dance floor) because we would’ve been so sad to have missed out on those opportunities and the great photos that came with them. She also made sure that all of our belongings were packed in the appropriate pre-assigned cars so at the end of the night, we didn’t have to corral anything and instead just went from our private last dance to hopping into our ride home (with a whole extra pizza she put in our hands for late night snacking). She was so much fun and felt more like an extremely helpful friend than a planner.
SO many people (including our entire wedding party, many of whom have been in several weddings) came up to us or texted afterward to tell us that it was the most well organized and seamless wedding they’d ever been to. If there were any day-of issues, ANA made sure we were not aware of them at all. It’s a month later and my (now) husband and I still say to each other almost daily that we can’t believe how perfect our wedding day was. I truly had the best time planning my wedding and I owe it all to Amanda and ANA.

Her communication was on par through text and Zoom calls, and she did all of the vendor communications so seamlessly. I can't recommend this team enough!!

ut my daughter's vision to perfection. She and her team did all the heavy lifting at the wedding and during preplanning so we could stay calm, confident, and relaxed both before and after the event. She knew all the vendors, exactly who to reach out to when we didn't, and gave fabulous direction from her wealth of experience. My daughter kept commenting leading up to the wedding that she didn't understand what all the stress and fuss was about planning a wedding...well that is all because we had Amanda and her team on our side. Thank you for a beautiful evening!

test people I have ever met. The entire ANA team is just fabulous! I worked with Amanda as my planner, and she was the most incredible partner work with both during the wedding planning process, and on the day of our wedding. She is SO kind and patient, and will never let you know when something is going wrong on your big day. During the planning process, you can see how dedicated she is to you as her client. She’s very quick to respond to texts and emails, and she always offers up different suggestions to fit different budgets, aesthetics, ideas, etc. She is so talented at what she does, and she has a very positive reputation in the industry. I feel so grateful we got to work with Amanda. We also worked with Kelli on the day of our wedding, as she was assisting Amanda. Kelli was also SO helpful and nice, we are just so grateful we got to work with incredible people. 10/10 service and would recommend them to anyone in a heart beat!!!!

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!!!!

, 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!

lanning 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 o...
verwhelmed. 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 m...
ore 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?

@amlbartz with @ashleynicoleaffair
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!

ng 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.

t 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.

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!!!

irst 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!

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 plann...
ing 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.

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 when...
ever 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

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.

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 Ashle...
y 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.

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.

ead 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!

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.
