    A Wonderful Experience

    Working with Ann was such a wonderful experience! She was incredibly knowledgeable, had so many connections and recommendations, was honest and upfront about budgeting and timelines, and was so incredibly organized and professional. Not to mention she was incredibly kind and comforting during the entire wedding planning process, which can feel a bit overwhelming at times. I cannot thank her enough for helping me with my beautiful wedding and reception last month. The entire day was so organized, and I could focus on just enjoying my day and celebrating with our friends and family.

    Exceptional

    We hired Ann for partial planning and day of coordination, and it was the best possible decision we could have made. Ann was the epitome of professional, calm, and competent. She guided us towards an excellent wedding day and during the day itself, I am unaware of any problems that occurred (I’m assuming because Ann put out any and all fires). Here are some examples of what made Ann exceptional:
    1. When I tried to create a day-of wedding timeline, Ann, said “do not worry about that. That is *my* job.” This allowed me to relax during the planning process and worry about things she was taking care of.
    2. When my mom had specific questions in regards to the day of the wedding and my answers were not giving her the right information, Ann spoke with my mom directly so they could sort things out
    3. I had specific concerns about the layout of the venue and Ann perfectly configured everything for our beautiful day.

    You’re (hopefully) only going to get married once. Make the best of it by hiring someone whose expertise can deliver your best day for you :)

    Thank you, Tia, and Berney for allowing me to assist you on the wedding planning journey. It was a joy to work with you both in helping to make your wedding day a GREAT Day!

    Dream come true!

    I would recommend Akal Elegance a thousand times over! Ms. Ann gave us so much more than we could have asked for. Her attention to detail is outstanding and her eye for beauty and elegance is exceptional. Our day was perfect and we couldn’t have done it without her.

    Akal Elegance's reply:

    Thank you Natalie and Matt for allowing me to assist you with one of the most memorable days of your lives. I am ecstatic that you had a perfect day!

    The BEST decision we made was hiring Ann!

    If you are looking to have a STRESS-FREE wedding and SAVE MONEY, do yourself and favor and hire Ann! We were planning a destination wedding in Savannah, so although we were reluctant to invest in a planner, we knew doing so would make our lives easier. We did not expect that hiring Ann would not only make this process easy but save us money along the way. Ann has a large portfolio of contacts and endless ideas to make any vision on any budget come together. From the initial consultation to our wedding day, she was on top of everything and always available.

    We highly recommend Ann and the entire Akal Elegance team! THANK YOU, ANN! We could not have done this without you!

    Victory North Wedding

    My name is Dj Damien from Dj Damien Events. I had the pleasure of working Akal Events. Mrs. Ann was outstanding. We had a wedding for 300 people at Victory North. Everything went off without a hitch. She kept me on tracked with everything that was happening at every part of the wedding. Hands down the most professional wedding planner I worked with in a long time.

    Very Attentive

    Akal Elegance made my daughter’s wedding day flow smooth and efficient. As the mother of the bride I did not have to worry about a thing. The experience was the best.

    Akal Elegance's reply:

    Thank you, Mandi! My goal is to ensure you have nothing to worry about and you are present in the moment to support and love on your daughter! I am glad I achieved that for you both. Thank you.

    Worked with as a bride & a vendor

    Ann is absolutely wonderful! I have worked with her as a bride and as a vendor, and she is always so on top of everything! She is always calm and on time. I didn’t have to worry about a thing on the day of. Every question I had, she already had the answer and had executed it. I will always recommend her to anyone I know looking for a planner!

    Akal Elegance's reply:

    Thank you, Molly! It was an absolute joy assisting you in making your wedding day as special as you are!

    The Best of Best

    Ann was excellent. She was communicative, organized, and knows how to put it all together. She has an effective system that ensures every detail is accounted for, and she did a great job communicating the whole process and keeping us within budget. She had a lot of creative solutions and is a great problem solver, which are two important characteristics to have as a wedding planner. She is polite and kind, but knows how to be a bulldog with vendors when things need to get done. We couldn't imagine a more smoothly run wedding day; there was very little stress, and that's thanks to Ann. It was incredible how everything came together perfectly, beyond our imagination...and stress-free. We'd highly recommend Ann and thank her for all her patience, diligence, and eye for detail!

    Look no further, you've found the best

    Ms. Ann Samuels was exactly what we needed on and before our special day. She made sure that everything was in place, coordinated and taken care of, and that we had nothing at all to worry about on our wedding day. Her level of professionalism, her beautiful smile, her warmth, the kindness she exhibited to us, our family and friends, made us feel so comfortable and taken care of. She went above and beyond to make sure that everything we wanted happened, while also handling small details, like a finding a single pink lip gloss in a sea of purses and ensuring that the children did not parkour themselves to death. Ann, thank you for all that you did. You are the best! Many thanks - Erika + Ryan

    Akal Elegance's reply:

    Erika and Ryan, thank you so very much for being your true unique selves and bringing so much great personal touches to your wedding day! Thank you for allowing me to serve you.

    Quality, Professionalism, and MAGIC!

    Ann and her team were an absolute dream to work with! Our day was magic from start to finish because of how seamlessly everything flowed and her perfect eye for detail. Ann is a person who loves what she does and it shows! She took such good care of a frantic bride when things (inevitably) didn't go to plan, or when tracking down our rouge vendors!

    Even working with her from afar communication was excellent, expectations were met or (in most cases) exceeded. Ann did all the flowers, decorated, planned the seating, and kept all our ducks in a row like a professional who has been doing this for years. I cannot imagine working with a better person to plan our wedding, and I'm sad that our time together has come to an end! THANK YOU, ANN!

    Akal Elegance's reply:

    Thank you, Sara & Richard!
    It was an absolute pleasure working with you both in planning your wedding. Thank you for allowing me to serve you!! I wish you both love, joy and many more wonderful years!

    Absolutely Phenomenal

    Ann was my month of coordinator but she was incredibly helpful throughout the whole time from when we hired her until the big day! She made everything so easy and we trusted her 1000% the day of our wedding! She had great, positive energy and our wedding was absolutely perfect! I could not have asked for a better day!! Highly recommended & husband approved!! 👍🏼👍🏼

    Ann was amazing!

    Our experience working with Akal Elegance was awesome! Although Ann was the day of coordinator for our wedding, she made sure to reach out months before our big day to make us feel comfortable and well prepared. By the time of our wedding, it felt like we had known Ann for years! She did a wonderful job at coordinating all the loose ends for our event and filled in all the missing pieces where needed. Throughout our entire time working with her, she was calm, cool and collected, and made us feel supported. This meant more than words can say. Our wedding day was perfect and everyone had a wonderful time! As a bride who wanted to try and do everything herself, I am so thankful that Ann was there to lend all the help we needed. We couldn’t have done it without her! If you want a stress-free wedding day and a coordinator who can deliver your vision, Akal Elegance is definitely your go to.

    Akal Elegance's reply:

    Thank you Jalyn! Your wedding day was all about what love is and you and Joshua demonstrated your love for each other in every area of your wedding. I loved it! Here's to a lifetime of joy and love!

    Best planner on Wedding Wire!

    We found this vendor on wedding wire at the most perfect time. Ann helped to make our wedding the most special and intentional day. She was incredibly personal and professional at the same time. I would recommend her to anyone getting married in the area.

    Ann was so amazing to work with!

    Ann went above and beyond to make sure our wedding day ran smoothly. My parents and my husband’s parents were very impressed with her work. She was available anytime we had questions and took so much stress off of us during the planning stages. We could not have got through planning a wedding in two months without her. She is truly a lifesaver.

    Excellent, well organized wedding planner!

    Ann helped so much with all of the prep work. Making sure that everything was paid up on time, all the paperwork was signed and all the little details were covered. She handled all the changes and requests exceptionally and did everything she could to make sure everything was done as requested. Day of, she made sure that things ran smoothly and it was as stress free of a day for us as possible! She gave us the sweetest wedding gift with our vows printed out with our wedding colors! Would definitely recommend her!
