    Amazing Wedding Planner

    Thank you so much for everything! We still cannot believe how magical the day was.

    Your organization and attention to details kept us stress-free during the planning and on the actual wedding day. We appreciate all of your support coordinating all of the vendors and making sure our crazy family was where they needed to be.

    It was such a pleasure working with you and I would do it all over again in a heartbeat.

    Wedding planner review 6/8/2024

    Where do I even begin about APE?! I wouldnt of survived my wedding day or planning without them. From the initial zoom call with Amanda, and Annie, I knew I was in the right hands. Coming from a VERY TYPE A bride, and knowing how Type A Amanda is, I had no doubt my wedding day would go off without a hitch. I chose the wedding coordination with an assosciate, but I still worked very closely with Amanda herself throughout the whole process. She was on every zoom call, and every email we had. Amanda and I communicated often via text, and she was there to answer any and all questions I had. Annie was responsive to emails, especially leading up to the week of. On my venue walk through Mimi was there, and really answered all my questions when it came to the timeline of the day, and where things should go. On the day of, I had the absolute honor of having Mimi and Annie there. I wouldnt of survived without them. I could cry just thinking of the day with them. Our ceremony called for rain, and it did in fact rain, but Mimi and Annie were in CONSTANT communication with my venue making sure we could wait until the very last moment to make the rain call. They eased any and all anxiety. They were there to hold my bag, my phone, make sure all the gentlemen were on schedule, and made sure the day was on time. During cocktail hour and reception, they were constantly checking on us, making sure we were all good. They were the keeper of all gifts, cards and wedding decor and made sure all of it got safely to our room at the end of the night. My husband and I look back and truly think the day would not have been what it was without them. There were no issues, or messups, at least to my knowledge, and if there were, they handled them without disrupting the bride or groom. I truly feel like APE is family to us now, and I look forward to seeing them again at my best friends wedding in September. Look no further for a wedding planner, because APE is where its at!

    The Personal Assistant Experience

    APE made me feel like my wedding planning was completely under control for the whole year+ that I worked with them. On top of taking care of almost all of the admin, they provided vendor suggestions & guides, numerous planning excels, and regular catch-up meetings. I know we were one of a cohort of Katie&Matts working with APE this year, and not even the only wedding on our date, but I felt like their most VIP client the whole time.

    If you have more of an ideal vibe than a clear vision, use excel as a hobby, and/or love checking things off a list without actually doing any work, APE is absolutely the right choice for you.

    Amanda is a superstar!

    I truly couldn't have imagined my wedding day without her and her team! She was the glue that held our entire wedding day and planning process together. She was honest, available and thorough every time we communicated with her. Her organizational techniques and attention to detail kept us on track and ensured that we were able to enjoy our day stress free. As a type A bride I will honestly admit that I could not have pulled off planning my dream wedding without Amanda's help. We were always able to get in touch with her directly if we needed anything and she was available for our walk through and rehearsal dinner to make sure everything was covered prior to the big day. Her deep expertise helped us to establish a great timeline that was realistic and allowed us enough downtime to truly enjoy ourselves.

    On our wedding day she handled everything! She popped in on all of the groups getting ready at multiple locations, got all of our decorations out of our apartment and set up flawlessly at the venue and made sure everything was packaged up and back at our hotel at the end of the night. On the morning of our wedding day, she was quick on her feet to take advantage of a better opportunity/photo spot for our first looks and was able to coordinate the slight change of plans with all of the vendors to execute it seamlessly. She always supported our vision and encouraged us to make our wedding day our own while still providing guidance where she thought she could enhance the plan.

    I would not hesitate for even a second to recommend her services to any of my family and friends, as her services were everything we could have hoped for and more!

    Amanda Paige Events

    Amanda and Annie truly went above and beyond for us! While we paid for day of coordinator service, we had monthly check ins, use of their inventory to save on table decor and card boxes, and Amanda even went the extra mile to design our invitation suite and matching ceremony programs for us. Truly five star service! On the big day, Annie and her team kept everyone stress free and seamlessly executed on the timeline and with all vendors! We cannot recommend them enough!

    The best decision we made!

    Hiring Amanda, Annie, and their team to plan our wedding was one of (if not THE) best decisions we made during our wedding planning process. Let me tell you why:

    - Incredible logistics management. My husband and I had a very complex Indian fusion wedding, including a sangeet on Friday night, two different ceremonies Saturday (Indian and Western), followed by dinner and dancing Saturday night. Everything went off absolutely flawlessly thanks to Amanda’s attention to detail, planning, and strong vendor relationships

    - Vendor selection. Amanda introduced us to a variety of vendors who not only matched our vision and fit within our budget, but also had personalities and styles that totally meshed with ours. She helped us create an amazing team that we were thrilled to celebrate our big day with.

    - Creativity in 2 dimensions. First, Amanda has great graphic design skills. She designed our invitations, menus, signage, etc. that were all so beautiful, we had friends asking what designer we used! Second, Amanda knows how to flex a budget and come up with creative ideas to deliver on a vision while staying within bounds (example - she decorated the venue for our 160-person welcome party, complete with fresh flowers, for a fraction of the price of a professional florist).

    - Passion for her business and her clients. A big part of why our wedding was so great was because Amanda and her team poured their whole selves into it. They over-delivered on our contract and invested so much into their relationship with us. Through this process, we gained not just a great planner team but great friends too!

    It’s hard to put into words how grateful we are for the APE team. We would hire them again in a heartbeat and recommend them to anyone getting married soon!

    Made Our Dream Wedding A Reality

    We can't imagine our wedding going as well as it did without the guidance and coordination of Amanda Paige Events. Taylor was the planner we worked with and she was awesome! She's a great listener and knew how to walk us through the process to get everything we wanted. We also had Hannah on the day of the wedding and she was super helpful and a pleasure to work with. Amanda and her team helped us throw the perfect wedding and we can't recommend them enough.

    I love ape!

    OMG! Where do I even begin!? Amanda & Annie are seriously THE BEST ever! I don't know what I would have done without them on my wedding day. Seriously, lifesavers. I have made lifelong friends & cannot say enough positive things about them. Start to finish, nothing but perfection!

    The best!!

    We loved our experience with APE. Amanda hopped on a call with me right away and talked through each vendor we had already booked and everything we still needed to do. We ended up booking coordination with an associate (we love Vanessa) but Amanda was available for any and all questions along the way. Vanessa was so helpful on all our check in calls and made sure we were staying on track. Vanessa ran our rehearsal quickly and efficiently - not necessarily an easy task with a large and chatty wedding party. She showed up at the perfect time on the wedding day to check in with everyone and help keep us moving on schedule. We had extra time to take a breath before the ceremony which was really nice. Our ceremony started a little late so that we could wait for some family members that were delayed and by dinner time we were right back on schedule. Vanessa and Annie not only beautifully set up our centerpieces exactly how I hoped they would look, but also packed everything up and brought it back to our hotel room. That made the end of the night so easy for us. Overall they made it possible for Ethan and I to be so present on our wedding day which was all we could hope for. Thank you for everything!!!

    The best wedding planner!

    My husband and I started working with Amanda almost two years before our wedding day because of Covid and every moment was fantastic. I wasn’t particularly looking forward to wedding planning. I am not someone who usually gets excited about flowers or place settings, and I remember after our first vision meeting with Amanda telling my parents I felt like I was “planning my wedding in first class.” Amanda curated the experience for us in a way that made everything fun. She got us right away and never tried to push anything we weren’t comfortable with or not into. She had amazing ideas that were individualized to us and reflected the type of environment we wanted to build. I felt like I could talk to her like a friend, but she also always remained professional and took her job extremely seriously.

    Despite liking Amanda as a person and enjoying the process with her, she executed a fantastic and seamless event. First, the team of vendors she assembled were truly first class. There are so many moving parts in a wedding and so many people to manage. I was honestly never stressed about anything not going according to plan because the vendors she recommended were so buttoned up and she had worked with them all previously. (You can work with any vendors you want. We just chose to only work with people she had worked with and recommended for us based on what we were looking for.) Second, Amanda and her team kept us on schedule and moving through the wedding day itself. We had a big wedding party (20+ people) and most of our plans had to change on the fly due to a massive downpour. Amanda and her team (Annie & Taylor) handled everything, so I didn’t have to look at my phone or a watch once and could just enjoy the day. Thirdly, she drove us an hour outside of Chicago to meet with our caterer for a signature cocktail tasting to ensure we had tasted everything our guests would be served: truly above and beyond. Lastly, Amanda designed a TON of amazing things for us (invitations, menus, seating charts, etc.) She literally drew our favorite locations for our seating chart because we wanted our tables to be named after meaningful locations. This level of decor/stationary creation is usually another huge expense, so it made her rate feel even more reasonable.

    I would highly recommend Amanda and her team to plan any wedding regardless of size, budget, or style. We have already recommended her to our friends beginning the process. She not only made our wedding dreams a reality, but she helped us create something beyond what we ever thought possible.

    The most perfect day thanks to the APE Team!

    Do not look any further, Amanda and the rest of the APE team are the best of the best! We booked Amanda and her team almost 2 years before our wedding after immediately feeling connect to her energy and style during our initial conversation. We booked her “Wedding Coordination” package which meant that I booked the vendors myself, but Amanda and her team were always there as my second set of eyes for opinions, recommendations, questions, etc! Cate and Annie were the two other members of her team I worked with throughout and they were both fabulous! We started regular touch bases 12 month out from our wedding, and they made sure everything was running smoothly! From giving us resources to use, ensuring we had our homework and keeping us on track. When I say Amanda and her team were always available, it was rare any communication would go more than a few hours before getting a response. They were always there, and I had full confidence the entire time that my day would go smoothly because of the attention to detail they spent with each and every couple.

    Amanda and her team went above and beyond in every aspect. From attending my final dress fitting so my dress could be perfectly bustled to helping design invitations (with my iterations), to running the entire wedding day without a glitch. I had SO many compliments at the end of my wedding on how amazing my planner and her team was. They made what can be an overwhelming and sometimes stressful process fun and we will always look back at both our wedding and all the work leading it up to it SO thankful we had APE with us every step of the way.

    Truly Type-A Bride Approved!!

    Amanda is such a rockstar wedding planner and coordinator! I knew she would be the perfect planner for me when I saw that her Instagram said "Type-A bride approved." I can personally vouch that this is 1000% true. In the build up, she helped us tie several loose ends with our vendors, coordinated the walkthrough and dialed us in so that we could attend virtually. She is always readily available to help and offered her thoughtful inputs (but knew when to step back and let us make the final call) at our food tasting, bridal hair trial and groom's suit/tuxedo selection.

    On the day of, she kept the event moving along seamlessly, with master shepherding of vendors and various guests. She coordinated the rehearsal, ensuring everyone (the couple, the parents, the officiant as well as the DJ, the photo/videographer) knew their roles well. She ensured the couple had a plate of appetizers ready before cocktail hour, which we appreciated. She kept the group photos moving along, while also respecting the wishes of the family to have photos taken with various permutations of family members and on different phones in addition to the wedding photographer. We also had a slight mix-up with our cake vendor, which she managed effortlessly.

    Amanda's assistant, Annie, was amazing on the day-of, as well! She coordinated with the groom and his family in the build-up to the ceremony, ensuring they knew when to be where for the photos and first look etc. She also ensured we didn't have to worry about anything during the actual ceremony, taking care to ensure that all the gifts / jewelry etc. were collected and transported seamlessly between the ceremony and party venues. She even came prepared with band-aids to save the day with an unexpected blister :)

    Amanda and her team really think of everything and help make the day run seamlessly without any worries for the bride, groom or their families. We are so grateful that we had her and her team on our day!!

    Couldn't have done it without Amanda!

    We engaged Amanda Paige Events to assist with partial full planning services for our May 2023 wedding. Wedding planning, coordination & organization is no joke, and we could not have done it without Amanda! Over 18 months, Amanda worked closely with us through vendor selection process including reviewing vendor contracts, articulating our vision, bringing the design to life, ultimately to our beautiful day!

    Personally, I was overwhelmed by the decisions, timelines, details that needed to be made & when. Whenever there was any question, Amanda was a text away. She consistently checked-in, we held our scheduled touchpoints (and plenty of ad-hoc - for my sanity), and it never felt like there was not a point at which she was not involved or invested. Amanda could tell I was struggling to envision all of the floral/decor details and set-up an in person decor viewing to put my mind at ease and finalize decisions. She generously created (and sketched) our welcome insert for our guest bags. There are so many details where she went above and beyond before our wedding day even arrived.

    On our wedding day - I could not have been more thankful Amanda, Annie & Mimi were by our side! Truly, there was not a single detail that went unnoticed, or not as planned. The organization, communication and support the day of, put our minds at ease. She pulled my mom aside for special sneak peeks of our room reveal, and made moments special for our families.

    Over the 18 months of our 'working relationship', we gained a friend and could not have been more impressed by the culmination of all of Amanda & her team's hard work coming together. We had the most perfect day, ever!

    Thank you, Amanda & Team!

    To Amanda and her incredible team, we could not have done this without you. You and your team were able to adapt and pivot with us as we rescheduled our wedding TWICE!!! To everyone considering if you should invest in a coordinator, you absolutely should. Amanda recommended the best vendors. She has an incredible relationship with her vendor team, and she listened to our concerns about budget and made great suggestions to help us stay within a range we were comfortable in. I truly believe finding Amanda was meant to be. She was an integral part of our wedding planning process, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. She’s an incredible asset and someone you want on your team to help make sure your big day is perfect 😊

    Easiest and best decision to work with APE

    Hiring Amanda and her APE team was the easiest and best decision we made for our wedding. During our first conversation, I knew Amanda was special because of the way she was interested in us as a couple, in our vision for our day, and how honest and ambitious she was about making things work on the budget we gave her. She quickly latched onto the already strong vision we had for our wedding day, and enhanced it with every step. She went above and beyond throughout the planning process to connect us (usually on the FIRST recommendation) with vendors that provided exactly what we'd dreamt of - one of them even told me that they consider Amanda a "matchmaker" because of her ease in connecting couples with the perfect vendors for their wedding by matching their communication style, overall vibe, and vision. I couldn't agree more! Her creativity is unmatched in finding the best ways to stretch a budget, prioritize things that are important, and ditch what's not. She makes you feel seen, heard, understood, and is always a quick text away - even if you just need some morale support! On the day of our wedding, Amanda, Taylor, Vanessa, and Annie did a fantastic job taking us through the day with ease. We had some last minute timeline changes and without batting an eye, the team was well-communicated and ready to move things around so that everything went smoothly for us and our families. The APE team is detail-oriented, communicative, professional, calm, creative, and has amazing vendor relationships. I can't recommend them enough!

    Amanda and Amanda Paige Events delivered our dream wedding!

    I worked with Amanda and her team at Amanda Paige Events for my September 2022 wedding in Sonoma County, California. Amanda and her team were fantastic to work with and I highly recommend you hire them. Amanda is creative, organized, personable, and excellent at what she does.

    Throughout the initial planning process, Amanda helped us feel at ease, especially given that I had never planned a wedding before. She laid out everything we needed to do, researched vendors, provided us options, and helped us find vendors that were right for us. This is something that I really loved-- she helped guide us, but didn't force anything, allowing us to figure out what worked for us.

    Amanda has great taste and during our planning process worked with me to figure out what my vision was. Each wedding that she does is customized and she worked with me to bring my vision to reality.

    Finally, Amanda really went above and beyond to help manage the stress and everything else that goes along with planning a wedding. We couldn't have done it without her!

    Not only did Amanda plan an amazing wedding, but she also executed it seamlessly. Our wedding was our dream wedding. Everything was beautiful, every vendor that she chose outperformed our expectations, and it was a perfect day. When I walked into our ceremony and dinner, I was beyond happy to see my exact vision but better.

    While her creativity and planning were an important part of making this happen, so was her organization and event execution skills. She seamlessly executed our entire wedding weekend for four days. Not only did this make it a perfect weekend but it also allowed us to fully enjoy our weekend.

    Amanda also brought two of her team members, Vanessa and Annie to help manage our wedding weekend. They were a pleasure to work with. Helpful, positive, organized, and went above and beyond to bring great energy and make the weekend great.

    I highly recommend Amanda and her team and would do it again in a heartbeat if I could!

    Truly your Advocate, Champion, and Friend Through The Process

    Even before getting engaged, the number one advice I received from wives and husbands was to get a planner for our wedding. I took this advice to heart when I got engaged to my now husband. I’m so glad I did because Amanda and her team were absolutely essential to ensure our wedding was amazing for me, my husband, and our guests.
    In fact, our wedding was perfect.
    From the moment we had our first call with Amanda, she was attentive to our specific wants and needs as a couple. She embraced our vision and ideas, and always encouraged us to do what WE wanted, not because our families were pressuring us to go in a certain direction. She matched us with an amazing total vendor team that met our budget needs and quality/look we were looking for. Any worries we had on wild card guests was always met with a plan from Amanda on how to be proactive, or tackle them in the moment. She really was our rock through the entire planning process and day of wedding.
    Which leads me to the day of the wedding. As I said, it was perfect. Her assistants, Annie and Hannah, were amazing. I’m not sure if anything went wrong on the day of the wedding because they were so on top of everything and scheduling. I truly just had to show up and soak up being a bride for the day.
    When I think of our 2 year planning partnership with Amanda, I am so thankful. She was organized, proactive, professional, authentic, and genuine. She is a gem, and number one in what she does.

    Thank you amanda!

    Where to begin! HUGE thank you Amanda and her team (Annie too!), for helping us navigate the best day ever! Yes, did I forget key details? (AKA the rings and invites and where the Xavier flag was?)... yup. Did Amanda traverse up 4 flights to our apartment to get them? YES! Needless to say, Amanda and her team will go above and beyond to help support you and your partner float through your day with ease. I agree with all 5 star reviews of Amanda! If you are on the fence, SHE IS WORTH IT! I typically think of myself as pretty organized, but her strategies and checklists, helped me SO much more than I could have imagined. From her professionalism to her skill to her emotional IQ, she will always keep your best interests to make sure you have the best possible day. Thank you, Amanda!

    Best planner

    Before I got engaged, I knew I wanted Amanda to be my wedding planner. When we finally met, I knew we had made the right choice. I am Type A and love to plan but knew I did not have the time to plan a wedding without a planner. Amanda was there for me throughout the entire wedding process. During venue tours, she could read my reactions and knew when it wasn't the right place. She worked with our budget and actually saved us a lot of money. She listened to what we needed and made sure it could happen day of. On the day of our wedding, she handled everything. We did not worry about anything. Shannon, Amanda's staff, was assigned to directly working with me. She kept track of all my stuff and got me where I needed to be! Vanessa, Amanda's staff, worked with my husband. She was a saint and dealt with a group of guys making sure they were on time. Amanda worked with all the vendors to make our day perfect. When there was hiccup with one of our vendors, she worked to resolve it. Our wedding was perfect. There is not one thing we would change and we owe that to Amanda. We do not believe anyone should plan a wedding without Amanda.

    Amanda was outstanding!

    Amanda guided us from start to finish and was so helpful, especially as the wedding grew near. It was such a sigh of relief to have someone with so much experience answering all of our questions. We were outside of the Chicago area but Amanda still managed to work with all of our St. Louis vendors and even came to visit 6 months before the wedding. The big day was perfect and Amanda was at the center of it all keeping things on schedule, organized, and easy for us to enjoy our wedding.
    Amanda always encouraged us to do what was best for us, and did not push any standards or traditions on us. Her experience with Jewish, interfaith, and other types of weddings was especially helpful to us as we designed a wedding around two faiths.
    Also, she did all of this while having a baby! Incredible!!

    The BEST decision we made for our wedding!

    Amanda was the first vendor I reached out to after we got engaged, the first contract we signed and by far one of the best decisions we made leading up to our big day! The partial planning package was not only very reasonably priced for the value (and compared to other planners), but it allowed us to have the support of a visionary like Amanda to help make our wedding day dreams come to life! She partnered with us from the very beginning- locking in and coordinating with other vendors, getting our budget in place, ensuring everything on the big day was squared away... she was our right-hand lady! Amanda is so thoughtful, kind and really loves her clients, that all shows through her work.

    Amanda was always a phone call or a text away, at any time of day. She communicated so consistently and was always a few steps ahead. She was on maternity leave for 6 weeks leading up to our wedding, but being the amazing type-A planner that she is, she communicated the plans for her absence well in advance, everything was ready before she took her well deserved time away with the baby and her team was there for me if we needed them.

    Amanda and her team built a day of schedule that was so seamless, had every last detail managed and kept us all on time and on track -- there was nothing left for us to do than to enjoy our wedding day with friends and family! Amanda is a gem; if you have the opportunity to book her for planning or day-of coordination, do it!

    Go with Amada!

    We absolutely loved having Amanda help with our wedding! We opted to have her as our day-of coordinator to help things run smoothly, which they totally did. Amanda is extremely organized and supportive but also strikes a balance with offering her opinions where needed. I was the kind of bride who needed someone to keep her wild ideas in check sometimes, and Amanda did just that. She can definitely "read the room" and adapt plans as needed. I am a pretty uptight person, so I seriously couldn't believe that I was actually able to relax and enjoy my day. If you don't hire Amanda to help with your wedding, you are making a mistake.

    The best!!

    Amanda Paige Events was the perfect choice for day-of-coordination for our Chicago wedding. She actually starts working with you a few months in advance to understand your plans and goes above and beyond to get to know her couples. She even came with me to my final dress fitting to make sure she knew how to bustle my dress! On the actual day, Amanda showed up bright and early to steam my dress, and from then on I knew I was not going to have to think about anything & could really focus on enjoying every moment of a fantastic day. Between Amanda and her other team member Vanessa, everything was taken care of! They were truly full-service, and so much fun to spend the day with. Our wedding day would not have been nearly as carefree and fun without them - we can't thank them enough!
