Thank you Ashley!!

Ashley and her team are THE BEST! I had the most amazing wedding because of them. From all the months of planning to the actual wedding day, Ashley made everything so easy. The entire process was so much less stressful and actually enjoyable because I had Ashley. The wedding day went so smoothly - even my guests noticed and I still get compliments on that! Ashley’s attention to detail and dedication to her work does not go unnoticed! Her team was such a pleasure to have around too - there was always someone to snap some behind the scene picks, hold my dress, grab me drinks, and anything else I could ever need! At one point, I fell on the dance floor and immediately Ashley was there helping me get up LOL! I’ll never find all the words to say much I appreciate Ashley and her team, so let me just say THANK YOU for everything you do. You guys are magical wedding wizards and I’ll forever remember how you made my dream wedding a reality :)

Perfect in every way!!

Ash Events absolutely crushed our wedding. There are no words or pictures that can suffice what an amazing job they did to make our day the best possible. They went above and beyond in every way. The amount of people that have complimented how beautiful and well organized our wedding was is all thanks to the Ash Events team & of course Ashley. We couldn't have asked for a better team for our special day!!

Made our wedding day perfect!

Ash and her team were seriously amazing! They took over the wedding coordination for the month of our wedding and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better. From taking over communication with vendors to her day of coordination, Ash and her team made the whole thing go as smooth as possible. She was incredibly responsive before the wedding with any questions and even helped us navigate a few post wedding things. My wife and I joked that they were so prepared and intuitive that they knew what we were thinking before we even did. They even provided us with around 900 of their personal photos from the day so we’d have them. It was such a personal touch. We were so happy with Ash and her team and they seriously gave us our dream wedding. We cannot recommend Ash events enough!
