Amy was a crucial piece for planning the wedding and day of coordination. She helped me with making sure I had everything that I needed. Made sure I checked off all the boxes. She was thorough, attentive, kind and made sure I wasn’t freaking out the day of my wedding. I can’t express enough how amazing she is. Thanks for everything Amy!!!

Amy was absolutely fantastic. From our initial meetings to discuss our wedding plans to our follow ups a few days after our wedding, she was caring, helpful, and great to work with. Each meeting was planned in advance such that, we were able to discuss specific topics to stay organized in what specifics were discussed. She ensured to bring up any recommendations she had and/ or anything that we may not have discussed. On the days leading up to the wedding, she took the lead on our wedding rehearsal which gave us an idea of how to structure our processional. Amy was overall extremely sweet and kind. She made sure to not just discuss “business” but, to also check in on us. We cannot thank her enough for helping our wedding day go smoothly. Through all parts of our wedding day, she was calm, cool, and collected. We believe she is extremely experienced, as it showed with how she handled various wedding mishaps. Overall we highly recommend Amy!

Besides my venue, Amy was the best decision I could have made for my wedding day. I knew immediately on her initial phone call that she was someone I needed to have. Her knowledge of the industry, willingness to help in anything, and creativity made my wedding day so special. I hired her as a day of coordinator, but her help extended so much further than that. She was responsive over my entire long engagement, and made it so easy to work with her. An additional bonus with that she provided many supplies (card box, platters, etc) for free! Amy made my entire wedding day go off without a hitch. I would highly recommend her to any couple, and I am so thankful of her help!

We had such a wonderful time planning our wedding with Top Shelf Event Planners - specifically Amy. She was so knowledgable and helpful throughout the entire wedding planning experience. I tend to be an anxious person and was nervous to plan such a big event, but she held my hand through the whole experience and made it enjoyable. Our wedding was beyond anything we could have imagined. When the day actually came, it was surreal to see it come to life. I knew she had my back and would take care of me on the day of. Any little unexpected issues that came up were handled quietly and gracefully. We had 2 unfortunate mishaps - one with our rental group and one with the transportation. Amy handled them without me even knowing there was an issue to begin with. She was on top of it, advocated for us, and made sure each company made it right with us after our wedding. I cannot recommend her enough! She is a rockstar.

Where do we start?! Amy of top shelf event planning was truly a godsend in helping us bring together the vision of our wedding. She went above and beyond what we could’ve ever expected from a day of coordinator. Amy was always calm, had a logical and reasonable answer to every problem. She coordinated with all our vendors and took a tremendous about of stress and responsibility off the shoulders of myself and my fiancé. A pleasant and happy spirit just what we needed to help bring our special day together. We highly recommend her to help ease the planning of your special day!
