Ivory Grace Event Planning

professional yet funny and down to earth. She is detail oriented and remembers everything. You can trust Angela to plan for all possible contingencies, and on the day of your wedding, she will make everything run as smooth as butter. Our wedding would have been an impossible event without Angela. Because of her, I thought it turned out better than I had hoped, and I actually got to enjoy the whole day, instead of stressing out.

the vendors and she communicated with us very well. I was nervous because this was a same-sex wedding and non-traditional, but she organized an amazing wedding. Thank you Angela for an awesome job!

in regards to her communicating with venders about arrival times etc. She handled everything in order for us to simply show up at our daughters beach wedding, (which Angela and staff attended) and then returned back to Bowling Green and three weeks later to have our friends and family reception for Nik and Megan at BGCC. My advice to anyone, DON’T plan a wedding without Ivory Grace Events. Sincerely, Kellie Whitmer

ich is what every bride needs! She spoke with all venders and seamlessly took care of all business. I will honestly have to say-not one single thing went wrong for the wedding or the reception. I HIGHLY highly highly recommend Angela and her team to coordinate your special day! We can’t thank her enough!

g IvoryGraceEventPlanning handled all the small details-- we were able to "take in the wedding" as it was happening. The reception and decorations were exactly what we wanted (AND MORE!), it was beautiful. During the planning process I know many brides and mothers get wires crossed but the way Angela handles things it was FUN. For an example of handling everything: There was no way the wedding dress could have been worn with out a hoop skirt. Our daughter had been wearing the hoop skirt for "first dance" and "father/daughter" dance practice for a few weeks and had been carrying it around in her car . The day of the wedding after everyone but the bride was dressed, my daughter realizes she forgot her hoop skirt (in her car in another city!). Before my daughter could even look like she might cry, Angela said "Oh, I got this, not a problem". One phone call and 5 minute car trip later in came a slip from a vendor Angela had worked with before. I am afraid had IvoryGracePlanning not been there the bride and/or mother of the bride might have cried. During the reception they continued to handle everything. My husband and I got to talk and spend time with family and friends who came so far for the wedding. The fact they we could be attentive to our daughter and guests was special that day - only because Angela and Brie we handling everything else. When I say they handled everything I don't mean that they did everything asked of them - I mean they did everything BEFORE I knew it even should be done! AND they did it well! I have to admit that our daughter's wedding is the best wedding we have been to (our own included LOL). It was amazingly beautifully decorated, well scheduled, everyone ate, drank, danced and had a great time. Even the most critical relatives were impressed!! Planning a wedding is something that needs to be left to the professionals. IvoryGracePlanning really made the day.

of the bride and groom. I am the mother of the groom, and I interacted with Angela, regularly, through the one year of planning. She was always there to help, researched the various vendors for me and found me the best deals possible. The amount of work (leg-work and constant speaking and e-mailing) she has to do far outweighs her very reasonable charges. Angela is always on top of everything. Twice the staff, at the hotel, that was our venue, got changed, and twice she started from scratch with the new staff, and explained to them everything that was needed, and put up the most magnificent show. This was a multicultural wedding, so 5 ceremonies (including 2 weddings - a Catholic wedding and a Hindu wedding) had to be held in a span of 1.5 (one and a half) days. And she did it!!! And she did it with great aplomb. All our guests were very impressed, and said it was the most well organized, well thought out, detailed wedding they have ever been to.

setup for the big day! She kept everything moving smoothly and no hitches happened day of the wedding!

r the day of because I 100% trusted Angela with every detail!

ng us to enjoy our daughter's wedding day without having to worry about the details! They did an awesome job!

she genuinely loves what she does, and she is so sweet- and great at calming down a stressed bride- AKA me! Angela is the best, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding coordinator for their wedding.

o many last minute details to attend to? The answer is Angela Miller, Ivory Grace Event Planning. As a “day of” wedding coordinator, Angela took care of every last detail. From contacting all vendors, coordinating the rehearsal, being there the day of the wedding, and much more. Angela allowed me to spend the day enjoying the love and laughter of the bridesmaids and bride getting ready. Upon arrival at the venue everything was perfect. I knew why……Angela. And the ultimate compliment to her services was when several in the wedding party told me how much they thought of Angela and how well she coordinated the wedding. So if you want to lessen your stress and enjoy the wedding day, choose Angela Miller, Ivory Grace Event Planning.

be made. Angela and Ivory Grace are the only coordinators I would use, if you are looking for the best look no farther than Angela.

ed a wedding there before. She had the most competitive fee as a planner and has her own facility for rentals (from linens to the final chalkboard sign). She had an intimate knowledge of the area, vendors and was always seeking out the best "bang for our buck" if you will. Aside from her immense professionalism as a planner and coordinator, she is an incredible human being. She was supportive through out the wedding-planning process, helped with crisis management and was available in ways more than my own family members. I can honestly say, without reservation or exaggeration, I could not have had the wedding of my dreams without Angela Miller and the entire team at Ivory Grace Events. The wedding day itself went off without a hitch! Guests are still celebrating the joy and ease of the day, the beautiful details and the way the entire day seemed to capture my husband and I perfectly! Brandon and I both feel like Angela and her family are now part of our new family! We are forever grateful to her and cannot recommend her more for any wedding in the KY/TN area!! We nicknamed her "Angela the Angel" :) Thanks so much again!!!!!!!!!! xoxoxoxoxox Wedding date= 7/15/17

ing day. Yes, we had a WONDERFUL photographer, but Angela made it all happen. I am a busy attorney and my (now) wife is a physician. Angela listened to what we wanted and created our dream day. She was available and truly, from my experience, cared far more about making our wedding day perfect (and within our budget) than anything else. Angela and her family truly gave of themselves to ensure that our wedding day was perfect, and SHE CRUSHED IT. I do not think there is anything that she could not handle. If you are on the fence and reading reviews, you should just call Angela now at (270) 784-2989 and speak to her yourself. There are also another 40+ people that seem to have the same exact awesome experience as we did. WE LOVE ANGELA AND IVORY GRACE EVENT PLANNING!!

without reservation. Angela is the best!!! Signed, Extremely Happy Mother of the Groom

icago) and we COULD NOT have pulled it off without her. She provided an amazing timeline that we both were able to edit and update as plans were in place. Living in Chicago, we looked to her first and foremost for referrals. She made excellent recommendations and best of all-- she was honest, straightforward and pragmatic with every decision, question/answer and detail. IGEP also set up our reception room by dropping tablecloths, placing centerpieces, flowers, table assignments, gift/card table, guestbook table, beverage station, etc. The room was perfection! We welcomed her executive decisions while trusting she would honor all the details that were important to us. She really took the time to get to know us so she was better able to coordinate. Angela held the reigns while we sat back and enjoyed the once-in-a-lifetime party we planned. Our day went by seamlessly- a beautiful dizzy memory of laughter, smiles and love (and bourbon). Thank you from the bottom of our incredibly full hearts

ndations for a photographer, videographer, catering and an officiant. I would certainly recommend them for an event but most certainly a wedding.

y wedding day!" My daughters wedding planning and wedding day was so much fun and was such a special time for us. I can honestly say that was because of Angela Miller, she allowed my family to experience one of the best days ever!!! I would do it all over again she made it so much fun!!

ry professional and organized. Having her help to plan and coordinate our day made everything SO much easier! Ivory Grace additionally did some draping for a seperate fee for our ceremony space (very last minute) that looked beautiful and rented us some table cloths and cake stand. Although we had some contacts for vendors beforehand, she set up meetings for florists, bakers, and suggested photographers and gave us advice. We were very please and happy with the decision to have Angela plan and coordinate our big day!

y Grace Event Planning helped me enjoy my wedding day even more than I thought that I possibly could! ❤️

be how great it is to have Angela on your team the day of the wedding. Not just to make sure everything runs smoothly but having her is such a stress reliever knowing you're in amazing hands! You get to enjoy all of the special moments of your wedding day without worrying about "have the bouquets made it here yet?" Or "are the guys dressed and getting their pictures done?" My wedding was my dream come true and I can honestly say that wouldn't have happened without the help of Angela. I have also been lucky enough to be in another wedding of Angela's, which was beautiful as well. There isn't a thing in the world that stop her from making sure the bride has the best day ever! Angela is truly a wonderful person inside and out and I highly recommended!

tes of speaking to Angela that she was the best there was out there. From day one, Angela kept us up to speed, asking us questions when necessary and walking us through things we didn't understand. In moments that I attempted to stress about the little things and lose my mind over things that didn't matter, she snapped me out of it. If I needed an opinion on shoes, she didn't hesitate to help. No matter what it was we needed, Angela was so easy to depend on. She kept us sane, for sure. When it came to the day of, there wasn't a single hiccup in the day's timeline. If there was, we had no idea. It ran so smoothly and the whole event was a dream. I will never forget that day and we owe so much of it to her. So, that being said, if you're looking for a wedding planner, no matter where in the country you are, you'd be crazy not to hire Ivory Grace Event Planning.

y venue. After meeting with Angela and two other planners, I decided to go with Angela for full event planning due to her professionalism and personable personality. After booking her for my wedding, she promptly began diving in to our budget and finding us vendors. She also met with me once a month, driving all the way from Bowling Green, KY to Nashville, TN, to review the wedding timeline and any updates she had for our big day! She handled all communication with each and every vendor for the wedding, making sure to schedule specific load in and load out times for the day of the wedding- leaving me to not worry about a thing. Angela helped us save tons of money by finding the best deals on all of our vendors. Angela was so sweet and supportive and, as a bride, took SO MUCH stress off me- especially the month of and day of the wedding. Anytime there was a mishap during the planning process, Angela immediately fixed the problem and made sure everything was okay. Angela will text/call you at any hour of the day no matter what your question or concern is! She made sure that everything looked PERFECT for our ceremony and reception and also made everything run smoother than I could have ever imagined the night of the wedding. Angela was the best money we spent during the whole wedding process and I will always remember her and everything she did to help make our big day as special as possible!

. I felt very comfortable that Angela had everything under control. The wedding went smoothly and the day was perfect.

in the industry showed and her contacts and knowledge for local vendors in Bowling Green helped out tremendously. We breathed a sigh of relief when we found her and throughout the whole process she did not disappoint. Everything just became easy to plan with her because she was flexible and helped us come up with ideas for the wedding. Angela Miller is worth her weight in gold. Her pricing was very competitive (honestly better than most). Overall 5/5, no complaints whatsoever, couldn't be happier with everything she provided. This is her only job (she doesn't do it as a side job) and it is obvious that she puts EVERYthing into it. She really represents you and makes your vision come to life. For example, at my venue they only allowed white chairs (they said that was the ONLY option). Our reception was in the middle of the woods, so I really wanted a natural look with brown chairs. Angela made calls, pulled strings with her connections, and she negotiated until she made it happen! I can not say enough good things about Angela. Our day went off without a hitch and it is all because of her. She is literally one-in-a-million! Book her today!

ired Angela as our wedding planner and I really had no idea what all she would do but as it turned it is was basically everything. She handled the entire process meeting with us monthly. Stayed on top of all the vendors. Even though the venue was 1hr from her home, she made several trips before the wedding. Was there day of rehearsal late into the evening, arrived day of wedding very early and was there into the wee hours of the next morning completing clean up. Her creative skills are exceptional. Our outside wedding became my daughter's fairy tale dream come true. We recommend Angela and her husband Billy to anyone getting married. Let her make it so much easier on you and the bride. Her fees are so minimal compared to the services she provides. Angela you are the best of the best. We love you for allowing Megan's dream to come to reality. Thank you Thank you

tude instilled confidence & trust early on in the whole process. And she kept us in the loop and on timeline the whole way through from start (Jan) to finish (Sept). Guests are still commenting about how smooth everything went. Calm and collected, Angela provided outstanding customer service on the day of the event. Looking forward to working w/her again for our twin daughter's wedding!!

rs, & baker leaving us only the fun decisions & none of the stress. She thinks of everything- including turning her hotel room into a chilled flower preservation room so they arrived in great condition on site! I highly recommend Angela to any bride; your whole wedding will be a well oiled machine that you & your family can relax & enjoy!

everal months before and loved it). Angela Miller provided us with a binder of planning materials including vendor evaluation guidelines, timelines, checklists, and tracking tools. Any time we had questions, she was quick to respond via phone or email. I had never been involved with wedding planning previously, except my own which was VERY small (all I did was order a cake and clean my dining room!). Angela knows about all the parts of the big moving machine that is the Wedding. She met with vendors and provided us with options to choose from, advised us on all questions we had, and guided us through the entire planning process. On the day of the wedding, she made sure that everything ran smoothly and any emerging bumps were smoothed out quickly. I could really relax and enjoy the wedding knowing that Angela was orchestrating the event, letting people know where they had to be and when, facilitating all the set-up and tear-down, and making sure the details were just right. What a pleasure to work with Ivory Grace Event Planning and Angela Miller.

know getting married! She is truly the best!

nd a friend and mentor to lend a ear when you just needed to vent to someone who understands where you are coming from. She coordinated and planned our wedding to perfection all while being 500 miles away. She called and texted me back no matter what time of night or that she was doing, EVERY TIME! Everyone told me they thought I would be a bridezilla, but was shocked at how calm and easy going I was on my wedding day. I TRULY believe its all because of ANGELA!!! I trust her so much and valued her opinion that I didn't need to know what she was doing or care to know every detail because I fully trusted 100% she knew EXACTLY my vision, taste, and personality. I always think of her as the" Olivia Pope of Weddings", because "IT'S HANDLED", ( and Olivia always wears white) :)

day. We chose the upcoming June (exactly 4 months to the date). I had a booking for a wedding for every weekend from April to my date, except for 2 weekends!! I knew I wouldn't have the sanity or the time to plan my own wedding, so I hired Ivory Grace, she was AMAZING!! The entire planning process was so easy for me, I left everything up to her. We would meet and finalize plans of what she had created. I could not have been more stress free through out the entire process. She was there every step of the way, and even when I got a butterfly filled stomach, she was there to remind me to breathe. I can't thank Ivory Grace enough for all that was done for us. We had everything we ever wanted, a beautifully decorated venue, a celebration, and lots of fun. She is great with working on a budget, and very effective in her work. The more responsibility you leave her, the less stress you will have, it's totally worth it!! We love you Ivory Grace!!!!

etc. She was very easy to work with and always made sure we covered off on the details that my mom and I hadn't thought of. Having a professional for the day of our wedding gave us peace of mind and let us enjoy the day with our friends and family. With our venue being a business and visited by many tourists daily, we were limited on out set up time for the ceremony and reception locations, but Angela helped pull it together amazingly including hanging draping, setting tables and working with the vendors in a limited timeframe. Also, we had a small thunderstorm pop up an hour before our outdoor ceremony and Angela reacted quickly to get everything set up again for our guests. We were very pleased and highly recommend Ivory Grace Event Planning!

back and advice when I wasn't sure about something. She is very dependable, knowledgable, and awesome to work with. I highly recommend Ivory Grace!

sts, but she was equally as kind and attentive to every single vendor, which says a lot about her. I hope I work with Angela again at other weddings! -Madi Flournoy Photography

ng ready and done! The ceremony was in the front yard and huge reception in the back! Angela with Ivory Grace Event Planning was amazing! She done way more then she should have for the money! Her fees were very reasonable and she deserves more then what we paid! Ivory Grace worked with me non stop leading up to the wedding! I could have not done it without them! My parents were so thankful for all of her help and she made it so easy that I could get married again an again! My husband and I haven't stopped talking about our wedding. We had about 170 people! She helped with everything from food, flowers, music, lighting, drinks, decorations, steaming napkins and tablecloths, tent and wall set up, tables and chairs, the list goes on! If you are considering a wedding I highly recommend Ivory Grace! I wish I would have picked her sooner then I did because I loved working with her,and I already miss seeing her face! On our wedding day Angela was there from 7:30am to 2am. Ivory Grace helped me a have my fairy tale wedding I have always wanted! I would have not done a big wedding without Ivory Grace! There is no way it would have all worked without them! We are so blessed to have the help we did and like I said earlier, she made it so easy, I could get married again! Thank you Ivory Grace! Joe and I appreciate everything! Also just want to mention, my flowers messed up and she even re done my bouquet!!!! Like I said, she done more then expected! I am so happy we chose Ivory Grace! Please choose Ivory Grace for your big day!

Angela and her team worked extremely hard during the final weeks and days leading up to our big day. She was in control of all aspects of our wedding. Her timelines are a saving grace, and she definately keeps everyone accountable! I dont think I could have imagined a more perfect day and I owe much of that to her! I would definately recommend her and her team to any bride!

dreams". Thank you Ivory Grace (Angela)! You are THE BEST!!!!

d and service was great!! As for the venue for the wedding itself - Historic Potter's Farm was beyond spectacular - like a dream come true. The barn was transformed with lovely table setting and gorgeous flowers!! Unbelievable!! My family and guests were so impressed with the entire weekend!! Thanks so much Angela!!! Nanette & Rich Hollmeyer

! Using Ivory Grace saved me so much more money than I paid for their services. Angela is an amazing person to work with and I'm going to miss working with her on a regular basis so much! Thank you thank you thank you!

to make my wedding dreams a reality. I am a student and therefore had no time to really work on planning my wedding. Angela did a fantastic job at making sure everything was what I wanted it to be! Most brides say planning a wedding is so stressful but with Ivory Grace my stress was kept down to a minimum! I would recommend hiring Ivory Grace to anyone!!

wo days but she did so much more. She came down months ahead of time to look at the chapel and the reception site and to help us organize the layout of the reception. She confirmed all of our vendors in the week leading up to and then, on the day of the rehearsal, managed to wrangle the wedding party and keep us on schedule, no easy feat. She helped us decorate the reception site the night before which we would never have gotten done without her. On the day of the wedding, there are no words. She was everywhere! It was awesome! Details I would never have thought about were taken care of. Things went so smoothly and it is all thanks to her and her husband Billy. I never had an empty glass or an empty plate and I have never felt so taken care of. Angela is worth way more than she charges and is the only person I will recommend to anyone I know getting married. We love her!!

ys so positive about every aspect of the arrangements. She calmed a stressed out bride and family with ease. She listened to any concerns we had and resolved them quickly. She does so much of the set up herself and is an artist at decorating and flower arranging. I should mention it was a Hindu ceremony so we had no idea of what to expect. It turned out to be the most beautiful and interesting ceremony we have been part of and was absolutely perfect.

th a planner who takes time to understand your priororities and is honest to you all the time.

tell you how wonderful it was to have her to work with on our special day. We could never have done any of it without her guiding us. She made it to where my daughter and I could enjoy the day, made it as stress free as possible, and took total control of the entire event! She was truly amazing and I would do it all over again with her! I will be glad to tell anyone and everyone just how special and hard working Angela is! We loved her and all she did for us! She was truly amazing!!

ome. We really could not of imagined how beautiful she was able to make it and the amount of stress she spared us! We watched her work so hard to make it just perfect for our kids. It truly was a pleasure to work with her & and are enjoying the wonderful memories of the wedding & reception she created. Sincerely, Lucinda & Mark Boggess

my vision and made it a reality! She took care of everything the day of, so I was able to relax and soak in the day! Angela is not only great at coordination, but she is so creative and is able to make or find anything that you could want! From decorations, to vendors, to food selection, she is able to guide and direct you to help make your day perfect! I would recommend her to any bride looking for the whole package! Thank you Ivory Grace Event Planning for everything!

help deliver a vision is very challenging. Angela's "its going to be ok, don't worry" attitude was extremely assuring and comforting! She helped direct each of us as we developed her vision for our event and with this it was a very successful event!

and organization she applies is impeccable. Her attention to details and timelines prevent elements from being overlooked and allow for a stress free environment when working on projects. It is with confidence that I can recommend anyone looking for a wedding planner or event coordinator. They will find great ease in working with Ivory Grace Event Planning.

o take control of everything from the flowers to the decorations to the itinerary planning. We would have had her get the dj, the caterer, and photographer if we hadn't already booked them. Chances are it would have been a lot smoother if Angela would have gotten everyone. Angela made sure that everything was in order before we met with her. She would meet at least a couple times in person each month leading up to the wedding. She took care of arranging our rehearsal dinner and making sure we got a good deal. She wants to save money any way she can for you but doesn't allow anything to look cheap. She is very crafty and spends numerous hours making things for your wedding so that you aren't spending a fortune to go buy it all. If you find something on the internet that you want, chances are she can make it down to the t. Our wedding was beautiful and I can't thank her enough. You would be a fool not to use Ivory Grace Event Planning!

if it is possible and there will be no last minute prepping and finalizing details. They will help you from beginning to the very end!! Let Ivory Grace let YOU enjoy your day!!!

elect the best vendors in Bowling Green and made sure that we were getting the best product for our money. She made connections for us that we could not have made otherwise. She managed all of the vendors so that we did not have to deal with that stress. She made sure everything was dropped off, picked up and of excellent quality. She also made a timeline for us to follow in the months leading up to the event that kept us on track and focused. As the date got closer, she surveyed our venue (a working barn) and came up with a layout for the tables, food and dance floor that optimized space and looked the best. She als omade sure to plan ahead for issues that she could foresse such as blowing a breaker due to overloading outlets and made sure we would not have that problem. She also began working on decorations including flowers, personalized signs, candles and more! In the days leading up to the event, she was the rock that kept everyone calm and optimistic. She had everything organized down to 1/2 hour intervals and made sure everyone was on the same schedule. When guests began to arrive, she had everything perfect and ready to go. Our guests were overwhelmed by how beautiful the barn was. Qutie frankly, I was absolutely amazed that she turned our working barn into such a warm and welcoming environment. As the night rolled on, she made sure the bars were stocked and the food was ready for evryone. She monitored our silent auction and assisted in the live auction. She made sure our entertainment was happy and cared for. She was on top of every aspect of the evening. I truly believe that without Angela our event would not have been a success. She encouraged us throughout the whole process and was always taking responsibilities off of our plate and putting them onto hers. She did everything asked of her and more. She took our ideas and executed them in a way that impressed us and our guests. I am pleased to report that with Angela's help our charity raised triple the amount it had ever raised in one funraising event. I can't say enough about Angela. If you are considering hiring her for your event, I would be happy to speak with you in further detail. Just ask her for my cell phone number.

my and exhausting job of pressing table linens! What more could you ask from an event planner! Our focus was on "family" for this momentous occasion. Our theme was carried throughout each event from the engagement party, rehearsal dinner, wedding and reception. It was elegantly and tastefully coordinated from the unique gift items to the linens and decorations. The family and friends are still raving about the event! Thank you Ivory Grace for making this a cherished family memory for all!
