One of the best decisions I made in terms of my 12/7/2024 wedding in Derry, Ireland was hiring Ashlyn Burke Events to take care of the wedding planning and more important, take con...
trol of finalizing the details once my husband John and I arrived in Ireland.
First, she set John and I up on The Knot. This allowed our guests to RSVP easily and allowed us to provide all the travel information they needed. Ashlyn was with us the next ten months, coaching us through every step of the planning process.
The true magic started Thursday, December 5, 2024 when most guests had arrived in Derry, Ireland. Ashlyn accompanied John, our two best men and me to the Registrar's office when we met with our officiant, and the Guildhall when we met with the wedding coordinator. She asked the right questions to ensure all last minute details were taken care of and gave her information to the Guildhall to be our point of contact moving forward. She requested the vendors' information where we had ordered flowers and the reception desserts from and stated she would be the one to pick those items up the morning of the ceremony on Saturday, December 7. Her goal and more important, her desire moving forward was we do nothing. She wanted us to enjoy our guests and the wedding experience fully without worrying about picking up items and any other detail that could arise.
Friday, December 6 we had organized a tour of county Donegal in Ireland. Ashlyn took care of organizing the guests and keeping them aware of what the schedule for the tour would be, and while on the road stayed in constant contact with me so she could alert everyone of any traffic issues and route changes. That evening at the Welcome Party Ashlyn made sure we enjoyed the meal and time with our guests while she took care of communicating with the staff at the pub we were at.
Saturday, December 7, Ashlyn not only picked up the flowers and reception desserts but arrived at the Guildhall before the wedding party did so she could work with the staff there to ensure the Whitaker Suite where the ceremony was would be decorated perfectly. She checked in on John and me constantly to make sure we were calm and ready for our wedding and took care of our guests as they arrived. Ashlyn took charge of the music I had set up for the ceremony, brought the two Best Men in the room at the right time and then brought John and me in right on cue as well. During the ceremony Ashlyn was taking pictures and video so she could create her own digital memories for us, on top of what our wedding photographer was already doing. In fact, the entire time we were with our guests, starting as early as Thursday, Ashlyn was busy taking pictures and filming video, and did so in such a natural way that you would have never known she was working!
Once the wedding ceremony had ended we had a few hours to relax before the reception dinner that evening, Ashlyn scheduled ALL of the taxicabs for all guests to ensure we would arrive at the restaurant, which was about 20 minutes away from the hotel, on time. Even at dinner she was working, helping the restaurant manager arrange the table for the desserts she had picked up. Last, Ashlyn scheduled all the taxicabs to bring our guests back to the hotel and would make announcements during the reception when another cab had arrived so the next group that wanted to go could leave.
Ashlyn made it look so easy to manage so many moving parts at once. I 100% recommend Ashlyn Burke Events!
We hired Ashlyn to coordinate our whole wedding. From beginning to end. And let me just say, it was the BEST decision we've made for this wedding. She is so organized, super determ...
ined and she makes your dream wedding come true. We were skeptical about wedding planners at first so we emailed her tons of questions for about a week and she answered them all so patiently. We had a destination wedding and had families flying from foreign countries for our wedding. So we were quite overwhelmed but she was there every step of the way. She wasn't lying when she said she will make this stress free for us! And the biggest reason why I loved working with her was that she was so good about responding to my emails, texts, and calls. Especially during the last week of wedding, she would even text me and make sure I was doing okay. Although she was sick during our wedding, she was a champ. Her and her team were such a delight to work with and they were so kind to us. THANK YOU
