Hamilton Events

Our wedding was November 3rd at the Hartley House and working with Ashley and Caitlyn at Hamilton Events was an absolute dream! From the beginning, Ashley and Caitlyn knew the In's and Out's of all things: Wedding! Their connections with the wedding venue staff and all our other vendors were amazing! They knew our venue, The Hartley House, like the back of their hands. Ashley and Caitlyn were my "boots on the ground" as I lived out of state during the planning phase, this consisted of many Zoom calls and just goes to show their great communication skills, they were so attentive to all of my concerns, requests, and questions. Their attention to detail is impeccable! They are so organized and made the planning process such a breeze! I cannot say enough good things about Ashley and Caitlyn, and The Hamilton Events team. So friendly, so personable, and they are always one step ahead, going above and beyond. During wedding day, they were on top of everything. From setting up the reception area, placing our extra items around we wanted at the wedding, checking in on the bridesmaids and groomsmen, supplying an "emergency kit", to having someone by my side throughout the day for anything I needed as well. They truly care and want you to have the best day and best experience possible! If you are getting married, I highly recommend Hamilton Events! They made wedding planning a breeze and I promise you will have the best time during your wedding, you will not have to worry about a single thing!

Truly so lucky that I found Hamilton events! From the start I spoke with Ashley who immediately made me feel as if this was the right decision to book with them. I had the privilege of working with Hannah for several months planning and I could not have asked for anyone better! She is organized, efficient, creative, and so patient. I was able to enjoy the planning process and didn’t stress at all knowing she had it all under control and was always one step ahead of me. Anytime I had questions she responded almost immediately, handled contact with all vendors for me, and was was willing to adjust to my schedule for meetings (both in person and via zoom) which was absolutely amazing as I work in healthcare and live out of state. I was also blessed with 2 other ladies who helped on our big day and they were so kind and helpful as well. Seriously can not say enough good things about this crew and how thankful I am for them. Book them ASAP, you will not regret it!!!!

My wife and I decided to work with Ashley and Hamilton Events after a month or two of attempting to plan our wedding by ourselves - it was the best decision we made in our wedding planning process. We started off unorganized and unsure about how to begin. Within a week of working with Ashley, we had a timeline set, an outline of what we wanted the wedding to look like, and wedding planning suddenly seemed much less stressful. First and foremost, Ashley was the most kind and approachable wedding planner that we met with when deciding on who to hire, and she continued to be a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process. Never did I feel like I was working with a “boss,” but as a friend who just happened to be incredible at planning weddings. At the same time, she made sure to stay the course and not let us get behind with any tasks that may have been due that week, which was a pretty regular occurrence. In terms of how she kept us on track, the organizational tool that she set us up with was perfect. My wife and I were both given logins and assigned all of the tasks that we had to get done by our wedding date, with due dates throughout the months of when things had to get done. It honestly took all of the stress out of thinking that I may forget something, or that I was doing something too late, or that I was overlooking some detail, because Ashley had everything covered on that website. As the day got closer, I was expecting to get more and more nervous/frazzled, but again it seemed like Ashley just had a way of absorbing that stress, making the big day that much more enjoyable. Whenever there was some small detail, such as which shade of blue we would like a plate, she would simply present us with options, we would pick, and she would take care of ordering/organizing everything else. Taking us to the actual wedding day, Ashley and her team had the entire itinerary, setup, breakdown, tips - whatever you could think of - all handled. My wife and I did not have to think about a single thing that day, other than enjoying ourselves. Without a doubt, if I had to go back 1 year and redo it, I would not think twice about hiring Ashley as our wedding planner. Wedding planning can be complicated, arduous and very time consuming which can really bear down on a couple during a time they want to be able to cherish. With Ashley, we had none of that, just a wonderful experience that we will remember for the rest of our lives.

BOOK THEM BOOK THEM BOOK THEM. Ashley and her team have been my saving grace from the moment I was engaged through the wedding day. Seriously I could not have done this without them! They were there to handle ALL of the logistical aspects of the day so that I could truly sit back and enjoy my wedding. So many times throughout the planning process I would have a thought and by the time I asked Ashley about it, of course, she was already on it. I wanted a champagne tower instead of a wall now? Perfect she’s on board and is already emailing the rental company. The wedding theme suddenly took on a French theme? She’s already got a list of light blue patterned chairs for me to choose from. I could brag on her design taste and ability to execute an idea to perfection for forever but what is really special about Ashley and her team is the fact that they truly become your friend and want you to succeed. It was having someone who was with me in the trenches, always in my corner, cheering us on and encouraging that no matter what it was going to be the best day ever (spoiler alert- it was). And that’s just for before the wedding. Day of? These queens were a sight to see. Literally one time I held out my hand and asked “Oh where did I put my bouquet?” and before I completed the question, Ashley was placing it in my hand. Everything ran so smoothly- and if that wasn’t the case- I would’ve never known! They made sure that we weren’t worrying about a thing! The day was absolutely perfect, and everyone involved in the process knows it could not have happened without Ashley and her team. I’m so very lucky I randomly came across her account on Tik Tok and reached out. I found the absolute best wedding planner and a lifelong friend. Thanks for everything, Ashley!!

If I could give more than 5 stars I absolutely would! I found Ashley on TikTok and was instantly drawn to her videos. Lucky for me I got engaged not long after and called her up. Being a project manager as a profession I didn't need help planning but I needed someone I could trust to take the reins on the day to not be bothered and Ashley and her team did JUST THAT. It's 2 weeks after my wedding and people are still telling me how seamless the wedding was and I felt it. My now husband and I didn't have to worry about 1 thing. Ashley and her team handled it all on the day of. We were on time and things happened as swimmingly as we could have hoped for! If you need a wedding or event planner or event management HIRE HER!! You won't regret it!

When I had the first consultation call with Ashley I knew she’d be the perfect planner for us. She was there for each and EVERY question I had and was excited for every step as if it were her own wedding! I really loved working with her and with the website she used I was able to show her and other vendors my vision. She wrangled all of the hard stuff, like vendors, decor, and both of our huge families. If anything went wrong on wedding day, I had no idea! It truly was the best day ever. I trusted Ashley with our wedding and I couldn’t have chosen a better planner for our dream day.

Working with Ashley and Hamilton Events was a DREAM!!! My now-husband is in the Air Force and due to a change in his military orders we had to change our wedding plans with only four months to go until we said “I do.” After feeling very overwhelmed with such a short time to plan, I connected with Ashley and hired Hamilton Events to coordinate my wedding at the Old Edwards Inn in Highlands, NC. Ashley made the wedding planning process so easy for me and allowed us to truly enjoy our engagement season even with such little time to plan our wedding. We met virtually for the planning process and everything came together beautifully. Even though I was living in Texas at the time and could not travel for the venue walk-through, Ashley made the trip up to Highlands and helped me to feel included via video throughout the whole meeting. She communicated with all of our vendors and made sure to always keep me in the loop! Ashley and Zoe were hard at work on our rainy wedding day to make sure everything was perfect (and it was...they even came prepared with the cute clear umbrellas for our photos!!) They helped with the little and the big tasks and allowed me, my husband and our loved ones to sit back and enjoy the day! Ashley is incredibly organized, very hardworking, timely in her response to everything, and most importantly you can feel how much she cares and enjoys being a part of your special day. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect for us and we could not be happier with our wedding planning experience. I would recommend Hamilton Events to everyone!

Ashley went above and beyond what I ever thought possible. Her ability to organize, think of every detail and keep me (mom of the bride) and my daughter calm was accomplished at every moment. She is polished and on task. She is not only an excellent wedding planner but also a delight to be around. Her response time before, during and after the wedding was exceptional. The amount of hats she wore day of wedding was unbelievable. She even watched my 2 year old granddaughter (flower girl who melted after going down the aisle) during the wedding so we could all enjoy the moment. I told my husband day before the wedding , “with Ashley here I feel like I can enjoy myself and not worry at all.” The wedding was in Highlands, NC at The Old Edwards Inn and we live in Charleston so it was a destination wedding and it also rained on the wedding day. Ashley not only assured us it would still be wonderful but told us the photographers love this weather (and she was right the pictures are amazing). The clear umbrellas she showed up with were so fun in the photos. We would recommend her over and over to anyone considering using her. I honestly do not have ONE complaint and can’t imagine planning the wedding without her. We are so thankful we found her and when our younger daughter gets married there will be no hesitations at all in using her again!! Ashley and Hamilton Events are phenomenal.

Hamilton Events was one of the greatest decisions I made about my wedding! They helped me with month of planning and day of coordination. Leading up to the wedding, we had weekly zoom meetings where they asked me questions to things I hadn't even thought of yet! If we didn't have those meetings, there would have been so much I would have missed about the big day. They literally thought of everything imaginable. I got married at a brand new venue so we had to do a lot of stuff from scratch. Ashley and Zoe just took it and ran with it! They did everything they needed to make sure I could have what I wanted on my special day. They answered many FaceTime calls, and random texts about things that I needed help with any time of the day. The day of the wedding, I felt so secure and happy knowing that they could organize the day and get people where they needed to be when. Hamilton Events was SPECTACULAR. They were prompt, professional, and assisted in literally any way they could. I felt so loved and cared for by Ashley and Zoe on my big day, and you will too! You need Hamilton Events in your life !!!!

Hamilton Events was absolutely incredible. I am a nurse who works nightshift full time and planning a wedding on my schedule is nearly impossible. Hamilton Events definitely carried me through the entire wedding planning process seamlessly. I literally was so relaxed the entire planning process!! When the big day came I had full confidence this team would carry out the best day of our life perfectly. And they did. All of my guest made comments like “this is the most organized wedding ever”. I never had to stress about anything even on the day of. Most importantly the people are what make this business so incredible. My two main planners were Ashley and Jaynie. Both AMAZING, talented, and thorough people. I met with them multiple times and every time was an incredible experience. They literally think of EVERYTHING down to the smallest detail. Loved working with them and would recommend them to everyone!!!

Working with Ashley at Hamilton Events was hands down the BEST decision we made during our wedding planning process!! Ashley, Hannah, and the rest of the Hamilton Events team are the most thorough, accommodating, friendly, and efficient team I’ve ever come across. If you are looking for a team of ladies that will ensure your wedding day is everything you’ve ever imagined and more- THIS IS IT!!

Ashley and her team were incredible the whole time leading up to the wedding, day-of, and even after! She is so knowledgeable, helpful, and organized. Hiring her made our planning process go much smoother due to her expertise. Having Ashley was a lifesaver the day of our wedding. She did such a good job that there were minor issues she handled, and I never knew or noticed there had been a hiccup! Ashley and her team made everything run so smoothly, and my husband and I were able to fully focus on enjoying our wedding and reception. I highly recommend Ashley and Hamilton Events if you are planning a wedding. She is professional, and is incredible at what she does. I couldn't recommend her more highly.

“I wish I could give 10 stars because Jaynie did an INCREDIBLE job coordinating our wedding reception! We actually had a couple of other people lined up to do the job, but a covid exposure left us with no coordinator six days before the wedding. Her excellent communication and flexibility were exactly what we needed after such a stressful week of plans changing. As the bride, I felt completely at ease knowing everything was being taken care of so well. If you have a vision for your wedding and want someone you can trust to make things happen as seamlessly as possible, Jaynie is your girl!”

Ashley and her team at Hamilton Events were the perfect fit for our wedding and helped us have the wedding day we always dreamed of. Ashley ensured that every detail was taken care of. She continually met with us throughout the process and always was available for any concerns or thoughts along the way. When the big day came Ashley and the team took care of everything leaving us with less stress and more time to enjoy our day. We are so thankful to have had Ashley work with us and we could not have chosen a better or more dependable company than Hamilton Events for our wedding.
