Hawthorne & Poppy Events

Beyond being super reliable, always willing to get creative and hear out my ideas, and making the best weekend of my life possible - she is just a really great human being.

Hands down the best decision we made was hiring Amy to design and plan our wedding. She not only assisted us with the big event, but she also helped plan 3 other days of events. From start to finish, Amy was a superstar that brought our visions to life. We feel so blessed to have met Amy, worked with her, and now to call her a friend. We wanted a wedding week that prioritized our guests' experience and was highly personalized. Amy got this and made this dream a reality. Each event built on the next and was loved by our guests. They loved the personalized details and how we showcased our relationship as well as Austin. These goals were achieved because of Amy. She is incredible. Amy is detail oriented, thoughtful, extremely creative, and a problem solver. She embraced our ideas and priorities from the start and was always coming up with new ideas and concepts for consideration. We had several detours along the way -- including a few times where we needed to change venues for our pre-Wedding events. Each time there was a set back, Amy was already pursuing other options and going through various backup plans. Wedding planning for us was made more difficult because we were not based in Austin. Amy was our eyes, ears, everything on the ground! She extremely responsive which helped so much given we weren't in Austin. She helped us plan out visits to Austin; kept us updated on all the various pieces and vendors; and made it so we (and our families) felt comfortable with this destination wedding we were planning. We would recommend Amy to anyone planning a wedding in Texas or anywhere, really! She has the capability, the network, and the creativity to plan a wedding anywhere. When we first met with Amy we weren't entirely sure the wedding would be in Austin. She was there to help us consider the city as well as other cities and make the best choice for us. We knew if we decided on another city or state, that Amy would still be the planner for us. So consider her no matter where you are! You will not regret hiring Amy. She is a creative superstar but also just an incredible person. We are so so lucky to have her now as a friend too!

Amy is more than a planner; she is a terrific friend, advocate and SO HELPFUL when planning such an important day. Cheerful, professional, so patient and tireless. She coordinated and executed my daughter's wedding at Springdale Station flawlessly. I highly recommend her to anyone planning a wedding; I cannot imagine having pulled that off without a seasoned professional's help. Thank you, Amy!!

Amy was incredible in planning our wedding. she had excellent venue recommendations, and made sure our entire day ran smooth as silk. she's incredibly organized, has an eye for detail and design that Martha Stewart would envy, and is an excellent communicator. I might add she's an incredible friend. We love you Amy!
