Magnificent Moments Weddings

ently organized. However, Amanda came as a referral from a good friend and I travel 2-3 nights a week for my job so I thought it would be worth checking her out at least. From the moment my then fiancé and I met Amanda we knew we wanted to work with her. I remember the thoughtful questions she asked at the very first meeting and that same thoughtfulness and attention to detail remained a key trait of hers though the entire process. Working with Amanda leading up to the wedding was like working with a best friend. I never felt like we were "working" or questioned whether I could call or text her. She never made me feel like I was bothering her or asking too many stupid questions. She acted like the wedding was just as important to her as it was to me. And even though I knew she was coordinating a wedding almost every weekend I felt like my wedding was the only one she ever thought about! Amanda did so many special things for my fiancé and I during our wedding season to make us feel special that I felt like we had been friends forever. I cant imagine the amount of stress I would have felt not knowing she was looking after every detail. Planning for a wedding and being engaged is such a special and sweet time that only comes once in your life and I would not change one thing about having Amanda involved with us during that season. Planning and leading up to the wedding was a blast with Amanda but the wedding day was even better! Of course like everyone says it was a complete blurr but everything went off without a hitch. There is no way I would have been able to organize all of those details on the day of the wedding and leading up to without MMW. THANK YOU AMANDA AND TEAM AT MMW!!!!

ours to tour the wedding venue with us, complete the food tasting and help us pick out the flowers (among other things). Whenever we needed her assistance, she was there. I texted her at all hours of the day, and she always responded immediatley. I honestly couldn't have done it without her, and if I could give more than 5 stars I definitely would. I highly highly recommend!!

th Joelle from start to finish. She was always organized, friendly, and willing to give advice on anything! I especially appreciate that during the week leading up to the wedding, Joelle completely handled all of our vendors. She communicated to them everything they needed to know and that was such a huge weight off of my shoulders. My mom and I were so thankful to have Joelle coordinating the day of because there are just so many things you don’t think about unless this is your job! We did not want family and friends to feel like they had to "work" at our wedding, so Joelle was truly a blessing to all of us! We did not have to worry about a single thing. Joelle even pulled my moms car around at the end of the night to load it up since it was raining. I would absolutely recommend MMW to anyone looking for any level of wedding coordination. 100% worth the money and I could not be more thankful for all the work Joelle did to make our day the best day ever!!!

a stress free and well organized event. Their attention to detail was evident in every aspect of the wedding. We look forward to working with Magnificent Moments Weddings in the future!

day of the wedding she and her assistant were indispensable, making sure everything went as planned. She was able to navigate a few minor bumps and keep it all going as smoothly as possible.

there are so many options. Several of the vendors I ending up choosing had worked with Amanda before, and had nothing but good things to say about her kindness & work ethic - and I agree! Amanda helped my mom and I prioritize what needed to get done in the time frame it needed to, and if we had any questions or concerns, she was quick to respond or do research to make sure our questions or specific needs were answered and taken care of. Our wedding day was truly the best day ever – and I do think that such a large part of that comes from Amanda going above-and-beyond to ensure everything was taken care of - from setting up the details to making sure everything ran to schedule. Because of this, my husband and I, and everyone else involved in/attending our wedding were able to just soak in the beauty of the day and truly celebrate. I definitely recommended Amanda and Magnificent Moments Weddings!

e to our house the week before the wedding to pick up all of our decor so we didn't have to worry! She dealt with the entire timeline of the day with all of our vendors (who raved about her as well!) and we honestly could not have been happier.

calm, composed, and made the daunting task much easier by breaking things down into parts. It's easy to get anxious about keeping everything organized, but I completely trusted Amanda to be on top of everything and to let me know how to stay on track. Importantly, she was always positive. No matter how small the task, she was excited about all of the details and very encouraging. It not only made the process less stressful - but actually fun! I was also very impressed with Amanda's ability to quickly see my vision and make it come to life. Her vast knowledge of local vendors (cake, makeup, DJs) meant she was able to point me to the exact right person to give me my perfect day. Shelby was my day of coordinator. What a joy to work with her. She is very detail oriented and extremely organized. I had 200 guests so this was no small task. She participated in planning sessions and coordinated with all my vendors. At the reception, I barely saw her - which is exactly what you want when you are trying to enjoy your big day. She would pop up to guide to the next part (cake cutting, dances) but then quietly disappear to make sure everything was running smoothly. I have no idea how she did it, but all of the leftovers, gifts, and flowers ended up where they were supposed to be. If there were any snags in the plan, no one ever heard about them. I LOVED my ceremony and reception and had countless compliments on everything. I cannot recommend Magnificent Moments Weddings highly enough. Perfection.

getting someone for a picture, to grabbing a drink, and making sure we were ready for every moment. Definitely worth every penny!

, what we wanted, and helped us stay on track. She was detail oriented and helped us figure out aspects of our wedding that we hadn't considered. We also appreciated that she was able to give us ideas on what to do when we were stumped. At the rehearsal and day of the wedding, I had absolutely no worries and didn't have to answer any questions-- Amanda took care of everything! Best of all, she made sure that hubby and I always had a cocktail in hand during the reception. Our families also said they appreciated how organized she was and that they enjoyed working with her. I would highly recommend hiring MMW for your wedding! She was worth every penny.

at is a really hard thing to trust someone else with but Amanda was great! She helped me plan for things I didn't even think of and she was a huge support when my friends and family were tapped out on opinions. I really think Amanda went above and beyond to make sure our wedding was perfect! Brittni, who works with Magnificent Moments, also did our flowers. It was a huge perk to have both of them working together (and for me to have one less vendor to worry about). Amanda was trustworthy, easy to get in touch with, and had our best interest in mind. We 100% recommend Amanda (and Brittni)!

list of recommended vendors they provided was very helpful! Only negatives were our coordinator did have to ask us lots of questions the day of the wedding, and also we were recommended to have two extra assistants the day of, but I felt they were not as helpful as they could have been. They were on their phones a lot throughout the day and needed lots of direction from our coordinator.

we cannot imagine our wedding day without Shelby to ensure everything went perfectly. She was so effortlessly on top of all of the moving parts – from coordinating and confirming with each of our vendors in the weeks leading up to our wedding to putting together a jigsaw of a day-of timeline and ensuring our ceremony went ever so smoothly. Booking Shelby was easily one of the best decisions we made and we are so thankful to her!

of! I would 100% recommend using Amanda! She helped make our space look beautiful and anything we needed on wedding day - she was right there to help and got it done so quickly! She is amazing and super sweet to work with!

ce to say, I needed to find someone competent, kind, organized, and experienced to clean up that mess but also get me to the finish line in less than three months. The event director at my venue sent me their list of preferred providers to help out and I called them ALL but MMW stood out. When I emailed Amanda and then had a phone call with her a little later, I was honestly sold - a little scared still, but I knew they were different. At this point of my planning, I was truly just ready for my wedding to be over, I’d spent so much money on the first planner, I was trying to pick up the pieces from my home in California while the wedding was in North Carolina, and I was just honestly distraught at the whole situation. Amanda was calm, straightforward, and funny and she got what I was looking for immediately. She was BEYOND understanding of my hesitation to work with another planning team and I knew I needed someone though so I signed with MMW - I’m glad I did! Amanda directed me to Shelby, who was going to be my coordinator. The highest compliment I can pay to anyone is to say that they work hard and they care and Shelby is the hardest working, most thoughtful woman in the biz! From the moment we were connected, she jumped in and got us organized and moving. She is direct, honest, friendly, and organized - exactly what every bride needs and especially what I needed. She answered my many MANY questions promptly and thoughtfully and never made me feel like I was bothering her, it was honestly like talking with an old friend. The day of my wedding, there were some minor hiccups and Shelby handled everything like a pro. I honestly had no idea until after the ceremony because she was so committed to us just enjoying our day and having no stress. If I had to choose one moment as the most impactful, I’d say … Our wedding was inadvertently the same weekend as the Taste of Charlotte festival so there were road closures, tents, bouncy houses, you name it, all around our venue. There was even one in full view of our ceremony site through the windows. I didn’t want the curtains down because the full wall windows are gorgeous and the lighting would have been better but I didn’t want a bouncy house in my photos either.. Shelby literally went down to the operators to ask them to deflate the house during the ceremony so we would have the perfect view and they came through. This is the epitome of above and beyond to me! And my photos will be lovely, full of light, with no kids bouncing through the air in the background ;) My parents were both super impressed by MMW from start to finish and both remarked on how much they could tell Shelby cared about delivering us the perfect day. Our guests had a blast and we got several comments that everything ran smoothly and that’s definitely thanks to Shelby. I could honestly write a small novel about how great it was to be an MMW Bride but wrap it up - I would definitely recommend Shelby and the MMW team!

rook and only have the highest praise for her and her team. Amanda is hard working, detail oriented, professional and fun to work with! She helped me figure out what I wanted for my wedding day and knew just how to execute my vision. She recommended other lovely vendors to help complete my dream team. I also loved that she gave me an easy and simple step-by-step to-do-list because it made the planning manageable and easy. Throughout the whole process, Amanda made me feel like I was her top priority. She went above and beyond to get to know me and my husband, and as a result our wedding was personal and special. When I had a slight mishap with my venue, Amanda immediately stood up on my behalf to ensure the wedding day would be perfect. On the day of my wedding, I was able to show up, get married and celebrate without worrying about anything. Afterword, everything was packed up for us so that we could leave and join our guests as the afterparty. I had my dream wedding and I really believe I could not have done it without Amanda and Magnificent Moments Wedding. One million thank yous to Amanda and the MMW team!

ur dreams come true. She knew all of the vendors and made sure they met our expectations. Words cannot express how great they are! We are thinking of how we can work with her again in the very near future.

er the wedding, we both couldn't stop talking about how happy we were with everything Amanda and her team helped do! She was great to work with throughout the planning process and on the wedding day everything went so smoothly! Not only did she coordinate the timeline and deal with all the vendors during the wedding but she was also constantly making sure my husband and I had everything we needed! Also, she was so great towards us during the planning process, answering all the questions we had (which we had a lot and probably asked the same questions multiple times!). We could not recommend working with Amanda enough!!

d for my wedding day and she flawlessly executed. From making sure all the vendors arrived on time, to making sure our guest were happy and followed a timeline. Shelby contacted all the vendors to make sure contracts were signed and payments were made as well as confirming arrival times to venue. She took all the stress away from me and I trusted her 100 percent. If I had to do this again, first person I would hire would be Magnificent Moments Wedding - specifically Shelby Rouse, she knows the wedding industry inside and out!

every moment. We didn't want to worry about coordinating with vendors, setting up our venues, or figuring out plan Bs for potential problems. So we decided to go with MMW to help out with all of this, and it was probably the best decision we made for our wedding! They were so much fun to work with, and SO organized (which I loved and appreciated!) Our day ran so smoothly and was really truly perfect. It's a day filled with a lot of emotions and nerves, but Brittni and Amanda made me feel so relaxed and excited! I could not recommend them more!

planning/sharing software tools. She even designed our floor plans (and backup floor plans) in CAD! Our venue manager said it was the best planning of any pro she had worked with. We hired Amanda because she is both an advocate and an ally for her couples. Instead of telling you what the "typical" couple does or what the "industry" prefers - she always looks to the client for what is most authentic to them. She's such a good listener that as I walked around our venue before our ceremony I got teary eyed because she remembered and executed every.single.detail. we had discussed. Some of which I had even forgotten. :) She makes you feel like you are her *only* client and checks in with calls, texts, and even care packages. Our other vendors were excited to work with her and she fostered sense of teamwork with everyone that most of our vendors ended up giving us "extras" or staying longer than contracted because they were having such a nice time working with her and the MMW team. Our families and bridal party were delighted to have someone to go to throughout the wedding weekend and said she was full of tips and tricks and made everyone feel relaxed and happy. Even a few of our guests commented that it was the "smoothest" wedding they had ever attended. Considering that our venue required 3 different floor plan "flips" and not to mention, only an hour to set up before the ceremony, that's a BIG deal. She had our favorite drinks in her hands for us as we walked into cocktail hour and leftovers of every single food we served packed into the trunk of our getaway car as a sweet surprise. Truly EVERYTHING about wedding planning experience and our wedding was better because of Amanda and Magnificent Moments Weddings. Looking back we both agree hiring Amanda was the best wedding money we spent.

ay-of coordinator, we knew we needed a team that would be highly organized, thorough, and ahead of the curve. We found that with Shelby and the Magnificent Moments team. With a guest count of over 300 and a venue with no event infrastructure (other than power and bathrooms,) the team at Magnificent Moments created a flawless ceremony and reception experience for our big day. Throughout the planning process Shelby asked the right questions at the right time and reached out to the right avenues for help. On the day of the wedding, she was present, prepared, and attentive. One thing I appreciated the most as a bride was the team's willingness to keep guests in the right place at the right time so that the schedule could run smoothly all night long. I'd recommend Shelby and the team to anyone looking for a flexible and thorough team to make any wedding seamless - no matter how challenging!

ting. Five minutes into chatting, I knew we were hiring her. After asking just a few questions, she already knew what we envisioned for our wedding day and had suggested multiple venues and vendors that could make that happen. Not having any family or my bridesmaids down here during the planning process was a little stressful but Amanda went to every appointment and meeting with me, and even came dress shopping. I travel a lot for my job and Amanda was always so helpful organizing and arranging things while I was gone and setting up meetings around my schedule. I also appreciated how accessible she was during the whole planning process. Many times if I emailed her, she would email back immediately and she always responded to texts and phone calls. The day of the wedding she was even better. She coordinated all of the vendors, rounded up family members and bridal party for pictures, handled each little hiccup that occurred and made everything go off without a hitch. She even checked in with our dog sitter during the reception and came over to show us pictures of our fur babies behaving at home! Amanda is kind, detail oriented, easy going, organized, has two back up plans to every plan, incredibly well connected in the wedding industry and has a way of putting people at ease that cannot be taught. You know within minutes of meeting her that she is just a genuinely caring person who wants to help you in whatever way she can. The whole planning process never felt like work, it just felt like sitting over coffee planning a party with a friend and I cannot thank her enough for that.

oothly both leading up to and during the wedding. Family and friends who attended were all very impressed and said how well the wedding and reception went and this was down to MMW. Couldn't recommend them enough!

r team would be great to work with! Shelby is so extremely organized & has excellent attention to detail & I knew she wouldn't miss a thing. She made my vision come to life on my wedding day & I couldn't have imagined it turning out more perfectly! I didn't have to worry about a single thing on my wedding day & could relax & enjoy every moment knowing that Shelby was handling it. I would highly recommend working with MMW.
