Simply, The Best

Where should we begin? Since the very beginning, Amber has understood our vision and brought our ideas to life in a way that we knew we were incapable of doing. She created the perfect wedding day for us! Not only is Amber professional, talented, and organized, but she is also creative and able to think outside the box. Our entire experience with her has been nothing but positive and enjoyable! Thanks to Amber, we felt virtually no stress throughout the entire planning process. We had complete trust in her and we have no regrets. It is evident that she is passionate about her career. She becomes excited when discussing color schemes, design layouts, and focal points. We remember during some of our conversations, she would have a certain twinkle in her eye and display enthusiasm for specific ideas, and it was clear that she could envision the entire wedding in a way that we could never have imagined. Not only did she help us find vendors that met our stylistic needs, but everyone we spoke with agreed that she was the best of the best. She also introduced us to professionals whom we genuinely enjoyed getting to know. She handled any mishaps or detours with grace, persistence, and innovation. When our venue notified us late in the process that there would be a concert on the same day as our outdoor wedding, Amber advocated for us. She battled through countless emails to ensure that our ceremony would not be disrupted by the noise from the other establishment. On the day of the wedding, she ensured that everything came together seamlessly and truly orchestrated a wedding that surpassed our expectations. We are incredibly grateful for her and her talents in helping us create a memory that will last a lifetime.

We enjoyed our time with Amber so much that when it all came to an end, we found ourselves
missing her! We truly believe that we have made a lifelong friend in her, and I cannot recommend her services enough.

With heartfelt thanks,
Lizzy & Amanda

Fantastic!

Hiring A. Renee Weddings & Events was the best decision we made during the wedding planning process. We did partial planning with Malea. Malea was easy to talk to, professional, and has a great eye for design. We knew our wedding was in good hands after our first meeting with her.

There are so many moving pieces with wedding planning and many things that we did not think of, but she made it easy for us to know what we needed to do. It was also very helpful that she communicated with vendors for us during our planning months. I can’t imagine how many emails she saved us from. She is also very responsive and answered any questions we had. She helped immensely with the design portion of our wedding. She curated a beautiful vision from florals, linens, signage and more!

On the wedding day, Malea made sure that everything ran smoothly, and we could just enjoy the day worry free. As my new husband said, “We couldn’t imagine the hours of therapy we would have needed without Malea.” Thank you, A. Renee Weddings & Events!

Simply the best!

Amber is the epitome of a boss woman and ultimate wedding planner!
I had an ultra romantic and super lush floral wedding style in mind and Amber went above and beyond to make sure we got just that.
Not only is Amber a true professional, but she is also kind, personable, thoughtful, understanding, and has an incredible eye for detail to make sure that everything is perfect for you. Even if she has several weddings to plan at the same time, you will never feel it when you talk to her because she makes sure to make you feel that your needs are prioritized and cared for.
Whatever your budget is, she will make sure to respect it and give you the best recommendations.
Whenever we felt uneasy about an estimate or idea, Amber handled it swiftly to keep our minds at ease - which is so important when it comes to wedding planning because you really don’t know how much goes on behind the scenes to make a successful wedding happen but she does. She understands the timeline for wedding planning to make sure you have everything you need in time but can also pull out backup ideas/vendors like a magic trick.
So if that that wasn’t enough for you, witnessing how Amber interacted with each wedding vendor she recommended to us was proof of how much respect she has in the wedding industry and how much respect she has for them.
Everyone we worked with shared the same qualities as Amber and had obviously formed a great connection with her from prior work together as well.
The team we put together was truly a dream team. Amber made sure that everyone was always on the same page and our wedding felt like a blink of an eye because of how smoothly everything was handled.
In short, Amber is the best wedding planner. Her work ethic is incomparable and if you want the most beautiful memory of you wedding day, Amber is your gal.
We love you, Amber!

As a wedding photographer (Luma Weddings), I work with many planners and coordinators. Amber from start to finish was a true pleasure. She had a calm, cool, and collected demeanor while maintaining an outstanding attention to detail. Her planning was so helpful to help me capture the couples' wedding day with the attention it deserved. Hire Amber. You won't be disappointed.
