LOVE NOTES

There is nothing that makes us happier than seeing our couples enjoying themselves at their own wedding.

Read on to see what some of them had to say about working with us.

Amy was simply amazing throughout the whole process. We were hesitant at first, believing we could do it all ourselves while saving a little bit of money. Amy was one of, if not the best investment we made in the wedding. She was easily reached, always on time, and came with endless ideas and solutions to any problems we had. You always hear that the week leading up to the wedding is the most stressful time, she made it the easiest. Would highly recommend Amy Varain Weddings to anyone who is getting married.

Where do I even begin? From the moment we had our first phone call with Amy, we knew she was the perfect fit for us. If you're on the fence about hiring a wedding planner because you don't think you need one, you're wrong, hire Amy! She is so organized, has a million great ideas and a solution to EVERY problem. In the last 2 months leading up to our wedding, I started to become a little nervous about all the little details coming together and began to second guess myself. Amy was there to answer ever question and concern my now HUSBAND and I had. She is so level-headed, has a calm demeanor when dealing with stressful situations (which is exactly the demeanor this Bride needed) and has this incredible ability to handle the unexpected with ease. She was ON IT with communicating with all of our vendors (there were several), reading through all the contracts and making sure everything was exactly how we wanted it. Now, for our wedding day... We were supposed to have beautiful weather, but a storm rolled in and we ended up with clouds and rain. Thankfully, our venue was indoor/outdoor. We planned to have the ceremony and cocktail hour outdoors, with the reception to follow inside. Amy gave us several Plan B options leading up to the day because there was a chance it would rain on us during our ceremony... and it did! But that's good luck, right? We were adamant about having our ceremony on the lawn area, outdoors because that was our vision. Amy had the brilliant idea of bringing clear umbrellas - enough for our guests to huddle under and share and one for us, that didn't distract or take away from our ceremony and actually made for some really cute pictures. While the rain / gloomy weather weren't a part of our original plan, it didn't ruin or take away from our day at all like I thought it might. Being a Type A bride, I had to take a few minutes to step aside after the ceremony, during cocktail hour that we had to cram inside, but with Amy & my husband's help, I got over it and we truly had the BEST day. We couldn't have asked for a better Wedding Planner. We have gotten numerous compliments not only about our beautiful wedding and all the intricate details, but also about AMY. People were in awe of how well she handled everything in the background while we were all eating, drinking, dancing and enjoying. To say that Amy not only made our day run so smoothly, but also saved it, is the UNDERSTATEMENT of the century. We would have been completely lost without her. She made us feel like family and whatever we wanted, she made happen. Amy & her staff have our highest recommendation. Our wedding day will forever be engraved in our minds. Best day of our lives by far! Thank you Amy, we appreciate you more than you'll ever know!

Amy was the best decision I made on my wedding day (apart from the groom of course ;). I have been in the wedding industry for many years as a wedding photographer and I knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that I needed Amy by my side when my time came. I have worked with hundreds of wedding planners and no one compares to Amy's professionalism, kindness, and creativity. She is the best of the best and I tell everyone I know. For my wedding she went the extra mile at every stage. She was there for me in every detail and along every step. She listened to my vision and dreams and made them happen exactly as I had envisioned. She took a huge burden off my shoulders and allowed me to be completely present in every moment during my wedding week and my wedding day. I felt so relaxed and confident because I knew Amy and her team had my back in every area. She is like family to me. I couldn't have done it without her and my wedding was the sweetest day of my life. Every single detail was beyond what I had hoped for and I owe that to Amy <3 (my planner, coworker, and friend)

Amy was the GREATEST wedding planner EVER! She was not only organized, helpful, professional, and knowledgeable, but her website and online checklists were Heaven sent. She always had our best interests at heart, kept us updated regarding weather and other external factors affecting our wedding, and had multiple back up plans & worst case scenarios for the day of. Amy is the best and the vendors she works with can also attest to her professionalism and expertise. The exceptional quality of her work is well worth the investment 100 times over!
