In short: Amanda is 100% worth the investment! She is timely, prompt, creative, organized, patient, encouraging, and well-connected! She knows fantastic vendors, who love working with her, and she is well-respected! An outstanding wedding plann...er + happy vendors = exceptional wedding!
The details: Amanda is an absolute dream to work with! Choosing Amanda was the BEST decision we made. I was hesitant about hiring a wedding planner due to the additional cost, and my perfectionist, organized, ‘do it all’ mentality. But, listen here, you NEED to hire a wedding planner, and when you do, you HAVE to hire Amanda, or the MMW team! Amanda came highly recommended, and after meeting her, I knew that she would be the perfect person to work with. We had a great deal in common, but that doesn’t begin to describe the depth of Amanda’s talent, not to mention her sweet spirit. Amanda is prompt, incredibly organized, and as Tom at the Mint Museum says “she gets everything done, and with a smile on her face.” She was flexible with my schedule, as I was planning from 5 hours away, and arranged FaceTime meetings with vendors when I couldn’t make it. She was never more than a text, e-mail, or phone call away. This immensely helped relieve our stress, and I cannot thank her enough. I still want to text her as a friend! She went out of her way to make times and dates work to meet in-person when I was in Charlotte for the weekend. Additionally, she made certain to ensure that we could implement the little details that I insisted on having. We had a valiant search for a classic mustang getaway car (still searching only because they don’t exist in NC!), and Amanda was even texting friends of hers who were in the market for classic cars, hoping they’d buy one so we could use it. I’m so grateful that she always made the process feel like teamwork, even when her expertise far outweighed mine. That was extremely important to me, as I wanted to be involved. Amanda ultimately helped direct and guide the decision process, making decisions when needed, and thinking of things I never would have. The day of my wedding, which had many moving pieces, went smoothly due to Amanda’s planning and organization. I can promise that she ensures that all vendors are on the same page, and operating on a strict timeline. Moreover, Amanda is well-connected and she knows a fantastic team of vendors. Her recommendations for my music and floral vendors were spot on, and both the DJ and flowers stole the show! My parents (and our beloved puppy) love Amanda as much as I do. I doubt there’s any business venture she wouldn’t be successful in, but weddings are her thing! Thank you Amanda, Shelby and Brittni for EVERYTHING!
