AE Events & Design - Seattle, Washington

Amy is fantastic. We worked with her for the year and a half leading up to our August wedding, and it was a such excellent experience from start-to-finish.

Amy is everything you want in a full-service wedding planner: detail oriented, experienced, easy to communicate with, knowledgeable and very well-connected in the industry. We highly valued her opinions and guidance. She recommended and coordinated with excellent vendors, always honoring our vision and budget. Not only did Amy plan and execute our wedding day (including doing the florals), but she also event planned our day-after-wedding brunch, which was fantastic as well.

Thanks to Amy, we had the exact wedding weekend that we wanted - without the high stress of planning it ourselves! We highly recommend Amy and her team, and we are so thankful that we worked with her for our big day.

Amy did a fantastic job as our wedding planner. She was not given an easy task: the ask was to plan two ceremonies and two receptions in one day on what many would consider a very limited budget. While there were a few bumps in the road during our 8-month planning process, Amy expertly navigated us as we got closer to the big day.

We were pretty price conscious from beginning to end. Amy did a great job of keeping as close as possible to our budget as could be reasonably expected in the Seattle area. The pricing model for her services is also quite fair.

Communication and reliability were the most important traits we wanted from a wedding planner, and Amy delivered extremely well on both fronts. Moreover, Amy did a great job of finding and coordinating with vendors that helped achieve our vision for the day. I can't imagine the amount of stress we would have had if we tried to plan and run this event without her. Even with the couple hiccups on the wedding day itself (that we knew of :P), we believe Amy adapted well.

All of our guests were extremely happy to be there and experience the day with us. My wife and I also felt extremely taken care of by Amy. At the end of a long wedding day, it was incredible to find all of our stuff + leftovers + wedding materials packed so neatly into our car by her and her team. We could not recommend a better planner for your wedding!

Amy was the glue that held our amazing day together! Her help troubleshooting and brainstorming the whole year(!) leading up to our wedding in September 2019 was fantastically helpful, and I really can't begin to marvel at how much she made happen the day of. James and I are beyond grateful for her kindness, professionalism and depth of knowledge that helped us throughout this process. As someone who has planned events professionally for years, Amy blew me away! Seriously, hire this woman. Her assistant the day of our wedding, Bailey, was also stupendously kind, attentive and on her game.

From the moment I started planning my husband’s surprise birthday party, I knew Amy was the perfect planner! She had great suggestions for beautiful floral schemes and knew the perfect additions such as these wonderful customized cookies to balloon arrangements. She was so easy to work with and her team was so efficient in all the set up so it was just in time for our surprise entrance. The evening was so beautiful and special! I would highly recommend Amy and her team for your future events and trust that she will do an amazing job at making your dreams come true!

AE Events & Design are top-quality for events and not just for weddings, but also for baby showers and other private events. Amy and her team helped me to throw my friend a baby shower and then, subsequently, helped my family to throw me a baby shower. Both events were absolutely flawless. Amy and her team are experts in managing many types of events based on your scale and budget. Amy has a vast connection of vendors and a stellar reputation in the industry that yields huge benefits for her clients - both big and small. I highly recommend AE Events & Design for your event planning so you can enjoy the most special days of your life to the fullest.

We can't say enough about how helpful Amy was with our wedding planning process! In the year leading up to our wedding weekend, Amy had so many great recommendations as we planned our day. She pointed us towards vendors that were not only great at their job, but also just really nice people to work with. She also had plenty of experience working with our venue, the Hall at Fauntleroy, so it was great having her insider knowledge and that established relationship with our most important vendors.

Amy did a great job figuring out what we wanted our wedding to look like and helping us make it a reality. Her positivity and advice kept us on the right track even when wedding planning got stressful. And she always made sure we were the priority, even when family weighed in with some *strong* opinions.

And on our wedding weekend, Amy was a true professional. She kept everyone moving, had every vendor organized, and made sure our wedding party and officiant knew exactly where to be. Even when our ceremony schedule was thrown off by traffic delays, Amy made all the adjustments on the fly and kept things running smoothly. On the day of our wedding, Amy made all the hard decisions and made sure we were able to enjoy the time with our friends and family to the fullest. We hardly had to lift a finger all day!

Amy honestly took so much wedding stress off our plate. She earns her rate, and then some! After the big day, my dad made sure to tell us that "every wedding should have an Amy."

My fiancé Alex and I partnered with Amy and her incredible team for our Seattle-centric wedding weekend in August 2023. She managed FIVE different events for us and worked tirelessly to make the entire celebration a smashing success.

Our wedding surpassed our wildest expectations and we could not have done this without her and her exceptional team. Amy - thank you for the long hours, the late nights, the chaos management, your unwavering patience, and the warmth that you brought to each and every event. Our guests were gushing over every minute of the celebration. We cannot wait to refer friends of ours to you in the future for any event they plan.

Working with Amy Elizabeth was an absolute joy and I have no hesitations recommending her for event florals. The process of booking her, reviewing our floral design together, and finalizing the budget were all seamless, which should not be overlooked -- that is SO VALUABLE. And then, day-of, Amy Elizabeth walked my bouquet into the getting ready room and it was simply more than I could have imagined. The color palette, the structure, the unique florals, just everything was phenomenal. Our photographer and coordinator all spoke so highly of her, and our makeup artist even said she was a ray of sunshine when she walked into the room. Our expectations were more than exceeded and we are so thankful Amy Elizabeth was part of our day. HIRE HER! (Even two days later my bouquet is still stunning)
