Look no further!!!!

Working with Sandy was a dream. Being in a time in our lives where all of our friends are getting married, we've heard a few horror stories about other wedding planners. Working with Sandy could not have been easier! Sandy went above and beyond to give us the day of our dreams. She is EXTREMELY COMMUNICATIVE, RELIABLE, PUNCTUAL, ORGANIZED, KIND, AND FUN!!!! She is everything you would hope for in a planner, and will drill down every last detail until your heart is content. She's got an amazing network of vendors that will help make your day perfect. You could run any idea past her and she would provide context for how we could make it happen. She's done a gazillion weddings, and her experience shows. She will give your wedding day her all. On our wedding day, she walked 12 miles!!!! REAL dedication!!!! Looking back, I can't believe how lucky we are that we found Sandy. She removed the stress from our planning experience and made it so enjoyable. The hardest part of all of it, was when it was over because now we don't have an excuse to talk to her all the time. If you are looking for an exceptional and reliable planner who's been in the industry forever, Sandy is THE person. She will deliver and you will have the BEST day!!

An Excellent Decision

I avoid writing reviews; however, I offered to write this one for Sandy Walker of In Awe Weddings and Events. Do not hesitate to hire Sandy. It will be your first excellent decision, and she will guide you to many more that will result in your perfect wedding. I just finished my second Mother of the Bride experience with Sandy and have nothing but praise for her excellence. The overriding positive characteristic that Sandy offers is that she actually listens and hears what you are saying regarding your wishes and desires for your wedding and makes them happen. You will have a variety of choices of top-notch vendors from all price ranges, with discounts. You will be offered practical and beautiful ideas that you never thought of, based on her years of experience and awareness of trends. You will be the beneficiary of her insistence on excellence from all vendors at all times. You will think you are her only client based on her responsiveness. You will be relaxed, and enjoy your wedding day, able to concentrate on the important things, and not give a thought to all the hundreds of details that Sandy has prepared for, organized, implemented, and supervised. You will have no regrets, except that you will be sad when it is all over and you realize your working relationship with Sandy has concluded. But .... you will be happy to realize you have a new lifelong relationship. I cannot recommend this woman of excellence more highly. Happy Wedding!

Hire Sandy. Just do it!

I cannot explain how invaluable Sandy and In Awe Weddings for our wedding. We planned our wedding in only 5 months and genuinely would not have been able to do it without her. She keeps on top of everything and knows what decisions need to be made and when and takes so much pressure off of us and our family members. She had exemplary recommendations for all vendors, gave us significant discounts, loaned us specific items so we didn't have to buy them (ie- easels, card holders, clear umbrellas, archway pedestals, etc.) She kept so many things moving smoothly without our having to worry. ABSOLUTELY the best decision we made for our wedding.
