WOW. Wow is the only word we could muster for days after our incredible wedding, every time we looked at pictures of or thought about the stunning decor design. Kiss Me in Carmel took our breath away with the transformation of our ceremony and reception spaces. Amy was a true joy and honor to work with - a consummate professional with one of the best eyes for concept and design that we've ever seen. Seriously, a creative genius. She instantly felt like a collaborator, and understood that we wanted a combination of whimsy and romance that could only be achieved with the beautiful pieces in her inventory.
From the beginning, we sent our inspiration and concept to Amy, and were met with what must have been hours of work to create MULTIPLE storyboards for each portion of our day. She was flexible with changes and edits, gracious, not pushy at ANY point (but made incredible suggestions throughout), and was there with her team on the wedding day to set everything up and make sure everything looked and flowed perfectly. She made us feel so well taken care of before, during and after the wedding, and we will never be able to thank her enough.

AMY IS ONE OF A KIND.
I wish I could leave an unlimited amount of stars. If you are in the Carmel/Monterey area, you NEED to use Amy for all your decor needs. My wife and I got married In July of last year (2022) and our wedding was absolutely aesthetically stunning because of Amy. She has the most beautiful vision and provides such amazing helpful decor tips. I couldn't have done all this planning without her. I wish so much love and success for her business and sky is the limit with her! I look forward to seeing more styled weddings from her in the future!
Love you Amy!

What would we have done without Amy! Her compassion, patience and attention to detail helped make all our dreams come true despite the difficult times. When we reached out to Amy regarding our wedding dreams she immediately got to work and created an inspo board to help us visualize what we envisioned. Amy took her time in finding specific pieces that would fit our style. Amy was able to put together our vision of creating an elegant boho chic wedding by combining our color of emerald green with pieces that helped create a beautiful outdoor wedding. Amy researched and found specific items that she knew we would love, such as an emerald loveseat that we would use at our sweetheart table. Because of the difficulties of planning a wedding during the pandemic, Amy constantly checked in with us to offer support and words of encouragement especially after having to postpone our wedding date. Amy continued to work hard and made us believe that our dream wedding would come true. She had several calls with us during the planning process and met with us at the venue to go over how we wanted everything placed the day of our wedding. The day of our wedding felt stress free because of Amy’s hands on approach to ensuring that everything we wanted was completed. She made our wedding feel like a dream. All our guests were impressed and loved her work, especially with the way she was able to recreate the venue into our own place. Amy was a blessing in our lives that helped bring everything we ever wanted for our wedding come to life. She allowed us to have the perfect wedding we always wanted.

I absolutely love Amy! She has a wonderful eye for wedding decor & she will exceed your expectations. I got engaged in January of 2021 and initially was planning an elopement which turned into a micro-wedding. I found Amy through this site and immediately after seeing her website, I contacted her. From the beginning of the process which consisted of Pinterest boards to the minor details like our song printed on an old typewriter, she worked her magic. She was so kind and patient through the process, here and there sending me her ideas. My theme was Midsummer Nights dream and she did an amazing job. We had fairy lights, moss on the tablescape, merengue mushrooms she made herself, and so much more. All through dinner, my guests and I gasped at all the little details and couldn't stop gushing over how beautiful she made our treehouse venue look. She has the most perfect, curated vintage items - some of which she has collected for years. If you are looking to rent for your wedding, look no further! I highly recommend working with Amy from Kiss Me In Carmel vintage rentals!

Amy’s collection of items for rent are unique and so beautiful! We were amazed at all of the wonderful goodies she had available for our June wedding. We were coming from out of town and wanted to enhance the natural beauty of our venue, so we figured renting would be the best way. After communicating with Amy, we knew we landed on a goldmine! She helped us to enhance our venue with lanterns, chairs, rugs, signage, and carts. She dropped them off and picked them up, which made the whole transaction easy and stress free. Amy was very informative, quick to reply, and sent us plenty of pictures to help us make our decision. Thank you for everything!

If I could give Amy 10 stars, I would! Amy brings the MAGIC!
Our wedding day was something of dreams, and everything I was hoping for! Covid who? All I could focus on was the gorgeous display that was created for my husband and I- to mark the beginning of the rest of our lives...and the pictures are priceless!
I remember saying that day..."Amy is truly my fairy godmother..." I can't say enough about how fortunate we were to find her. Someone who from the very beginning was easy to work with, positive, responsive, reliable, and just SO creative!
Amy thought of everything that I didn't and helped bring my vision of a micro wedding to life. She really went above and beyond...completely understood our aesthetic and needs. I truly couldn't have hired anyone else...she's the Bomb.com.
I hope that if you are reading this, you give Amy a call and let her take the reigns in making all your dreams come true. I trust her with my life...and so can you :)!

So talented! Amy has such a creative eye and has so much fun styling events. I had a mountain themed wedding in Colorado where Amy decorated the rehearsal dinner space. She perfectly mixed my taste with her vision and it looked beautiful and unique!

I am someone who is kind of a control freak, so the thought of letting someone else do my bridal decor was a bit nerve wracking! Let me tell you with confidence that Amy did an amazing job! I don't know how she does it, but she is incredibly creative and has excellent taste! Trust her vision, you will not regret it!!! She also has an amazing energy and makes the process really enjoyable!!!
