Aimee is spectacular. We initially found her on recommendation of our venue, as she has done many weddings there and understands the unusual logistics of it super well. I was initially nervous to hire someone who isn't Indian to do an Indian wedding, but she won our trust in the interview. She is a beautiful combination of warm and joyful and extremely competent. She was a cheerleader through our whole (complex) wedding planning process, and she did her utmost to hew to our budget, fulfill our unique, multi-cultural vision, and find solid, professional vendors. I was so grateful to have her manage vendor relationships, complex timelines, and thinking of all the tiny details that only a professional would catch. We had grand visions and a moderate (for the Bay Area) budget and she worked endlessly with us to right-size our choices. And on the actual weekend of our celebration, her team SHONE. Every wedding has small (and sometimes large) issues and she handled every bump in the road with grace and efficiency. We and our families got to glide through the weekend, with complete faith that Aimee and her team had it under to control. Thank you, Aimee! read more

Aimee is truly one of a kind. Having worked in the wedding industry for years and collaborated with many planners, I can confidently say no one compares to her. Her calm, grounded presence on the wedding day instantly put me at ease and allowed me to truly enjoy every moment knowing everything was handled flawlessly. Our venue included a venue coordinator, which we appreciated, but it quickly became clear that the venue coordinator's role is to represent the venue, not the couple. We wanted someone who was fully on our team, prioritizing our experience, our vision, and our guests. Having Aimee there to advocate for us and ensure our day unfolded exactly as we hoped was one of the best decisions we made. Her organization and execution are unmatched. She has an incredible eye for detail and a gift for anticipating needs before you even realize them yourself (from both a client perspective and guest perspective). But what makes Aimee truly special is how thoughtful and intentional she is in her approach. She doesn't just run a timeline, she helps create a day that feels deeply meaningful, personal, and full of heart. Beyond her professionalism, Aimee has an incredible ability to connect with EVERYONE around her. Guests, family members, and vendors all ADORED her. She balances warmth and authority effortlessly, making everyone feel cared for while also keeping everything perfectly on track. It's so clear that her number one goal is the happiness of the couple and their guests, and it shows in everything she does. Aimee went above and beyond to ensure our day ran seamlessly, and she did it all with genuine care, love and joy. I cannot recommend Weddings by Aimee more highly... she's simply the best. read more

We were searching for a Wedding Coordinator and found so much more than that in Aimée. She was a confidante, a reminder to step outside the stress of wedding planning and savor the joy & fun of building something together. She was an advocate for us in coordination with vendors, and a hype woman for our whole wedding weekend. Our values going into our wedding were warmth & connection, sustainability, and holding onto that quirkyness that makes our relationship us. Aimée was a fantastic match for these qualities. She met with us early & often, which is not typically common for coordinators. If you are going to opt for a coordinator rather than a fulltime planner, I do recommend working with someone who offers both services. Just the fact that Aimée works as a full-time planner as well brings a level of expertise to her coordination. She has a wealth of experience with intentional weddings, helping couples to slow down and truly express themselves through their celebrations. Aimée helped us build a Master Timeline that took us from the beginning of our weekend all the way through to the end, from the big important pieces to the little details like making room for us to take a breath & connect throughout the weekend. On the day of the wedding, Aimée was in full execution mode. Part of what makes Aimée great is that she has built trusting partnerships with so many people, including our vendors and venue coordinator at Whispertree (the incomparable Freida), so she is able to get everyone aligned quickly and deliver. While delivering on every detail, Aimée also took the time to connect with our friends and families, which is part of what makes her so special. Execution does not just mean running through the timeline. It means building connections that make running through the timeline feel seamless. We would recommend Aimée to anyone who wants a Planner or Coordinator who specializes in truly getting to know the people she works with to deliver a wedding that feels intentional, magical & so perfectly unique. read more

We hired Aimée to help us plan our wedding in Todos Santos this year, and we truly couldn't have asked for a better experience. We met Aimée before we had even decided on a location in Mexico (she was actually the one who recommended Todos Santos to us). Thanks to her and her team, we had the most incredible, unforgettable wedding weekend. Aimée has a unique ability to understand your needs and get creative within any constraints (including budget). She went above and beyond for us every step of the way and added so much value to the entire planning process. Her vendor and venue recommendations were spot on; she introduced us to places like The Green Room, Cien Palmas (for our Rehearsal Dinner / Welcome Party), and ultimately led us to our venue of choice, El Faro. From the moment we arrived in Todos Santos, Aimée made us feel completely at ease. Our walkthrough at El Faro was especially reassuring. It answered all our questions and calmed any lingering nerves. People always say weddings come with unavoidable stress, but we genuinely didn't experience that. If there were any hiccups behind the scenes, we never knew about them, and that's a true testament to Aimée and her team. Thanks to them, we were able to be fully present and soak in every moment. On the wedding day itself, Aimée and her team were absolutely incredible. They kept everything organized and flowing smoothly, and it felt so good knowing we could just enjoy ourselves while everything behind the scenes was handled seamlessly. Throughout the entire process, Aimée was quick to respond, thoughtful in her recommendations, and an absolute joy to work with. I'm so happy we found Aimée. Not only did she make our wedding dreams a reality, but she introduced us to a place we completely fell in love with. If it weren't for her, we probably never would have discovered Todos Santos. We are forever thankful! read more

Aimèe was an absolute dream to work with and created the most beautiful celebration of our love! Our wedding day was unforgettable, and our guests are still all talking about it. She recommended sustainable vendors who could fulfill our vision and honor the Redwood forest we were married in. I highly recommend hiring Aimèe to plan your perfect weekend wedding! read more

With 10 months to plan a wedding weekend in Santa Cruz, and neither my partner or I being particularly great at planning things, we found Aimée and her team via a recommendation from our venue (The Sequoia Retreat Center). The moment we had an intro video call with her, we knew it was the perfect match! We went with the Coordination Package, which was a great mix between planning and typical day-of-coordination. We really loved Aimée's unique take on weddings, her time and care towards our specific needs, and the communication we had with her. Aimée is reliable, well organized, has a deep knowledge of weddings and events, and is well connected with local vendors, making it that much less stressful to plan. There was a real focus on sustainability and supporting local business as well, which was so important to us. And, when we were overwhelmed leading up to the wedding, she was able to reel us back in and remind us of what our day was all about. And when our wedding day/weekend came, it was everything we wanted! Aimée and her teammate Tara did so many things behind the scenes to make our weekend the absolute best at The Sequoia. Would highly recommend Aimée and her team! read more

First and foremost Aimee is absolutely incredible and we have absolutely no doubt our wedding would not have been the best day of our lives without her! I spent many months poring over every review site I could find to look for wedding coordinators (NOT planners). My fiance and I are high school sweethearts and we had been planning our special day for a long time...and THEN covid hit and we had to postpone our wedding an entire year. I had a strong vision for our wedding and considered myself very organized. From the first meeting with Aimee we were immediately calmed by her professionalism, extensive experience and warm and friendly personality. We also loved learning about her involvement and passion for sustainability in the wedding industry. We hired Aimee and it was 100% THE BEST DECISION WE MADE! As our coordinator the value Aimee added was invaluable. Our wedding venue was a nice hotel in Santa Cruz but (due to covid) had a TON of lack of communication. Aimee was there every step of the way to help navigate and advise us. The last 4 weeks Aimee completely took over and handled ALL communication with vendors coordinating with our venue. She took all of the communication off our plate and it was the biggest relief so we could spend the weeks leading up spending time together...stress free! Day of we had a lot of little things that ultimately turned into big things ( covid testing checklist, last minute issues with venue, and helping make sure each item we brought went to the correct place). Aimee's organization and communication were clear and absolutely essential to everything coming together. We trusted Aimee 100% to help make our wedding day perfect for us and she and her team delivered! We were so thankful she had our back every step of the way. Throughout the 18 months we worked together Aimee's communication level was great. She held onto our vision and we were so thankful. She also had a ton of great ideas for us to implement like ordering everyone Mcdonalds after the wedding... HUGE HIT! Aimee was so valuable, experienced and professional. If you are considering booking with Aimee DO NOT HESITATE she is wonderful and has become a lifelong friend. read more

Weddings By Aimee - AMAZING! - Wedding Planning Near Me

Aimee helped us plan and coordinate our wedding in the summer of 2024. Communication with her was always efficient and full of joy! She was so kind, and so thoughtful, and always came up with great suggestions for us. With her help, we were able to find the perfect photographers, florists, musicians, and officiants. Everyone was so nice and helped to give us a beautiful and unforgettable wedding. On the wedding day, Aimee and her team helped keep everyone within the timeline and check on us intermittently to ensure we had what we needed. We felt so lucky to have Aimee as our wedding planner, and we were grateful for the efforts of Aimee and her team. We'd recommend Aimee to anyone looking for a good wedding planner. read more

Aimee coordinated our wedding in spring of 2024 and she was fantastic. She was kind and thoughtful and paid attention to how we wanted things to go, while also giving helpful advice on choices we were trying to make. She held regular meetings with us and had checklists to keep us on track, and helped us understand what we didn't need to worry about. She took care of the details leading up to the date, including wrangling caterers, parents and other guests. It was important to us to stay on budget and she helped us do so. She has a stable of people she works with that were both fantastic and saved us some money vs other options. Aimee was an absolute pleasure to work with - we'd recommend her for any wedding or event you need help planning and executing. read more

Weddings By Aimée planned the wedding of our dreams at Sequoia Retreat Center in California. We recommend Aimée and her team to couples hoping for a wedding that represents who they are and what's important to them. We contacted Weddings By Aimée during Covid after seeing her name appear in our search for wedding planners in CA. We are from Philly and knew we would need help planning our wedding across the country. Aimée's website caught our attention because she could help plan sustainable and zero-waste weddings. We didn't know about the term 'Slow Weddings,' but when we learned that it involved connecting couples to small, local vendors focused on being mindful of what they do and what their business provides, we felt that it matched our values. We were looking for a wedding planner who could help us create a customized small wedding of 12 people with unique elements, such as organic food, raw vegan cake, and an activity to replace dancing at the reception. Weddings By Aimée was exactly what we were looking for. Aimée understood what we were looking for in vendors and connected us with vendors who aligned with our values. Aimée's cheerful personality shined through in her Zoom meetings with us. And she was just as cheerful on the day of our wedding. Aimée provided an extremely organized Spreadsheet and many resources throughout the wedding process. Our venue search was a bit complex because we didn't know what we wanted, but with Aimée's help, we could focus on the aspects that were most important to us at the beginning of the search. She answered our questions with ease and offered to reach out to our vendors on our behalf on multiple occasions. She also gave us the assurance and clarity we needed when making decisions. She even helped us plan a trip to CA a year before our wedding to visit the venue and have a tasting. On our wedding day, Aimée helped to keep the vendors within the timeline and continually checked in on us to ensure we had what we needed and were enjoying our wedding. We couldn't be happier with our wedding, and we are grateful for the efforts of Aimée and her team. Thank you, Weddings By Aimée! read more

After working with Aimee, I tell EVERY bride to do their research and invest in an incredible wedding planner as the most important purchase! We decided to work with a planner due to having a destination wedding. We specifically chose to work with Aimee for her incredible local connections and ability to understand and highlight what matters most to each couple. We couldn't have foreseen that she would be our calm center for a series of surprises: a global pandemic, and the arrival of our new son! When we decided to postpone our dream wedding by a year, she somehow quietly picked up all the pieces, contracted with the vendors, and let us know it was handled. (Our florist moved abroad, and Aimee even somehow found someone else local to step in and honor her same contract and vision.) When we decided to move forward with starting a family and let Aimee know there would be a new baby as a guest of honor, she seamlessly secured childcare for us and worked my feeding schedule into our wedding day itinerary. Above all, she threw a wedding that many friends said was the best they'd ever attended. I hope you do not have any unforeseen circumstances affect your wedding, but if you do, your investment with Aimee will pay off 10000000%. read more

Where do I start. I suppose I'll get the most important part of the review out of the way first: Aimee and Jake are simply AMAZING! I cannot express enough how much we valued having Aimee coordinate our wedding. Above being a warm and friendly person to be around, she worked with us to make our wedding a very personal event, anticipated our guests' needs, and helped us to craft a unique and unforgettable destination wedding weekend. We had so many comments from our guests that it was the best wedding they had ever been to. Now onto the details. My husband and I are Americans living in the UK. We planned a destination wedding weekend at Mt. Rainier, Washington. Being University professors, we like to think/pretend that we are fairly organized people, but planning a wedding from thousands of miles away brings a whole host of difficulties. However, Aimee really helped us bring all the pieces together. She was there for us from the beginning of our planning, to dancing the night away at our wedding, to eating pizza and roasting smores at the day-after party. One of the things that I most appreciated about Aimee is that she kept us grounded and focused on what was important. It is so, so easy to get carried away with wedding planning, feeling overwhelmed and pressured to have the most Pintrest-worthy event, to think that if you don't make every little detail perfect then you will be harshly judged by the wedding gods. But Aimee always reminded us to focus on what was meaningful, the reason for our event, how we wanted the weekend to FEEL, and how to let little things go because they constituted unnecessary stress. Aimee also worked with us to build a timeline that worked to not only make our wedding weekend run smoothly, but she developed a plan to help us slow down and enjoy the week leading up to the wedding. For example, we had scheduled in a date night for my husband and I, and another night for us to take our parents out to dinner. As we did a fair amount of DIY, requiring help from our families, it made everything run much more smoothly to have each day planned, with everyone's tasks assigned in advance. All of this really took a lot of stress out the craziness that is inevitable in the days leading up to a wedding, and we actually had so much fun! It was a bonding experience with our families, and it made the wedding so much more than just a single day. When it came to the actual event, Aimee was professional and kept everyone organized, including our crazy families as well as the vendors. She also brought her partner, Jake, who helped with coordinating the weekend, including working with our vendors in the week leading up to the wedding. By the way, Jake is also AMAZING! He became part of the family that weekend. He was professional while also letting loose when appropriate. Having Aimee and Jake meant that my husband and I got to enjoy ourselves without having to worry about all the coordination. Before walking down the aisle, I danced and sang with my brothers, laughed with my bridesmaids, was ready EARLY, and really felt so full of joy. And this is because I knew Aimee and Jake had everything covered. Their hard work allowed me and my husband to be present in the moment and to enjoy the time we had with our guests. If you are looking for someone who will work with you to craft a wedding that speaks to the uniqueness of you and your partner, I would highly recommend Aimee. She may sometimes tell you that you may want to cut out that little detail that you've been staying awake thinking about for two weeks, but it is for your own good. She will help you focus on the details that matter, and she understands how to create an experience for you and your guests that you won't forget. She will push you to SLOW down so that you can soak up all the joy and love that you will be surrounded by, making your wedding so much more than just a 'special day'. And Jake will make sure that you don't have to lift a finger on your wedding day! read more

We're absolutely speechless Not only did she capture our vision for our elopement in the best possible way but she made us feel loved and at ease from the very first video call all the way to the ceremony. She matched us perfectly with the vendors she found for us and graciously got everyone on the same page. During the big day she took great command of the day and made sure that everything would unfold just as we had planned. We are super grateful that Aimée made our dream come true and feel that we have also made a friend for life. It doesn't matter from where you are in the world (we're from Sweden) you should let Aimée take care of you USA wedding. read more

Weddings By Aimee - Wedding Planning Near Me

Our Todos Santos destination wedding was an absolute magical and beautiful dream come true! Our dream was made possible due to the hard work and vision of Aimée Newlander with Wedding by Aimée. Aimée recognized our needs and values from the very start, and then she enhanced them with her extensive expertise in destination and 'slow' weddings. She provided us with excellent options for sustainable and local vendors in the Todos Santos area. For example, Aimée sourced hand-made, authentic pottery from a local artisan family for our wedding. Early on, Aimée identified our respect for nature and animals in our relationship and recommended locally made traditional Mexican animal bud vases for our dinning floral design and guest mementos. The end product was absolutely gorgeous and perfect in regard to aesthetics and our values. It warms our hearts that we supported a rural local artisan family through our union. Our wedding was also unique because we had two combined ceremonies. We had a "western" ceremony and a traditional Persian ceremony with a 'Sofre'. Aimée played a pivotal role in the coordination of the ceremony with our family and our vendors. Our photographer, also a Todos Santos local, captured both ceremonies beautifully and even used a drone to get great overview shots of the venue and landscape! Throughout the whole planning process Aimée was always so warm, respectful, and genuine and her communication was consistently clear and effective. She also amazed us by her deep thoughtfulness, respect, and extremely close attention to our words and needs. We sometimes felt as though she was reading our minds! She made us feel confident and reassured throughout the whole process. Planning a destination wedding is no easy feat and we are so grateful that we found Weddings by Aimée at the start of our wedding journey. Aimée went out of her way on many occasions to have impromptu meetings with our wedding venue, who unfortunately was short staffed during most of our planning process. She put in the extra time needed for coordination and effective communication with this vendor. We can't fully emphasize our gratitude and satisfaction with Weddings by Aimee in words. We highly recommend Weddings by Aimée! read more

My wife and I looked for the perfect venue for awhile. We wanted to get married in the woods. When we came across Green Oaks Creek Farm, we were put in touch with Aimée and Sarah. We couldn't be more grateful for these two and the entire team at Weddings by Aimée. They took care of us and problem solved throughout the planning process. Aimée and Sarah are incredibly thoughtful and were caring when the stress came on. They made it our time. Our day was beautiful. The decor was exceptional and the evidence is in the details. There are no words, and many of our friends have said it was the best wedding they've been to. When it was crunch time, they were there and ready to help, and make our day be the best day of all days. Ashley and I are forever thankful that Aimée and Sarah came into our lives. They were very communicative. They also whole-heartedly understand the importance of connection and community. They are a group of special humans that went ABOVE AND BEYOND what they needed to do. They have an air that let's you know they care. They care about slowing down and putting emphasis on enjoying the experience of marrying your best friend. As a queer couple in this world the let us know immediately how beautiful our love is. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you. We adore you guys!

Aimee planned my multiple day event for my wedding at waterfall lodge and retreat and she nailed it! she was tasked with a hugeeee vision that she helped rein in and delivered on so many levels personally and professionally. when planning a wedding (ours was a 1 year 9 mo process) and Aimee was with us every step of the way - a long planning process and she gave us her all the whole time. on a personal level, she is a joy to work with- she kept me balanced, was so positive and reassuring and just was a calming force in what sometimes feels like a huge storm. she worked with myself and the groom and knew our strengths and weaknesses (mine was staying in budget :) ) and knew how to approach everything delicate but professional and let's get it done attitude! On professional level, she handled all the vendors, being the communication and voice for us- always advocating for our best interest. our wedding was a huge production on a logistical challenging venue and she made sure every area was how we envisioned with multiple vendors involved. her strategy for budgeting was helpful and kept us on task for deadlines. i could of not had this wonderful wedding without Aimee and highly recommend to any brides with big visions- she's your planner! enjoy! read more

My husband and I met Aimee at a venue we checked out in Capitola and fell in love with her straightaway. We wanted to get married at the venue we toured with her just so we could work with her! Even after we decided to get married in Berkeley, I kept going back to Aimee in my mind. No one had gotten married in my family in close to 20 years, so I had a lot of anxiety about trying to plan a wedding on my own and we knew we would need professional help if we wanted to stay within our budget. So we decided to see if Aimee would coordinate our wedding up in the Bay Area and she said yes! In the hour I spent with Aimee at our preliminary meeting, she made me feel like all my anxieties could be folded up into perfectly manageable pieces and that everything was going to be alright. She takes the time to get to know you, why you love each other and want to get hitched, and your family background. She listens to you and really tries to understand what is important to you. She is incredibly easy going and easy to be around. Her vendor recommendations are solid. She was mindful of our budget throughout the entire process. You can't help but feel confident that everything will come together because she exudes confidence in even the most stressful situations! Everything else aside, what really shone through was how Aimee did everything she could to help out and keep me sane the week of our wedding. The day of our rehearsal she shuttled my MOH to run errands because she could sense I needed some alone time. She kept texting to make sure I'd eaten (sounds funny but you will forget!). She came to our rehearsal dinner so she could meet my family and get to know all their faces and quirks before the big day. She kept my mother calm when I broke it to her that we could not get mariachis with 24 hours' notice (if you only knew). She made my Dad & I laugh right before we walked down the aisle when I thought I might barf from nerves. She managed our vendors with the greatest of ease. She was prepared when none of us were. She was awesome. I don't get married a lot, so I don't have anything to compare her to, but I can say with confidence that our day went 100% more smoothly because she was there taking care of everything. Anything I thought of - she was already one step ahead! When my husband and I look back on our wedding, the one thing we agree on without question is that hiring Aimee was the best money we ever spent. Everyone told us how great a job she did and how much they loved her. I wish I could plan a wedding every year so I could hang out with her all the time! Pssst...Here's the recipe for the best wedding day ever: Hire Aimee as your wedding coordinator, Frederick James Luxuries as your florist, Kim Holloway to make you beautiful and Simply Bliss Catering to feed everyone. Get them a team mascot and make them some t-shirts, because this is the Dream Team when it comes to weddings people! read more

Weddings By Aimee - with the best wedding coordinator in the bay! - Wedding Planning Near Me

We were so happy we went with Aimee as our wedding coordinator! She is a tremendously kind and caring individual, who always had time for us, and genuinely wanted the best for our wedding day. She was attentive, organized, and listened well to our vision to come up with a plan that fit our style and personality. She had excellent advice, recommending things we would have never thought of on our own. Things that were not even related to the wedding day itself, but how to handle our time and get the most enjoyment out of the days leading up to and days following the wedding. We took her advice and it was perfect. We wanted someone that was organized, and we got that for sure, but her advice on how to enjoy ourselves and our wedding week were such a surprise and a real gift we will never forget. The day of was so incredibly organized, and Aimee was wonderfully prepared. Our timeline went off as planned without a hitch, and it all happened in such a natural way. It didn't feel like the day was forced - more that there was this natural flow from one event to the next. We were both so at ease and really able to be totally present and enjoy the day to the fullest without worrying if things were going to go as planned. Thank you so much Aimee for helping us to make the entire experience of getting married unforgettable! read more

Weddings By Aimee - Aimee waiting for us at the finish line and cheering us on! - Wedding Planning Near Me

So you are starting to plan a wedding and you're thinking you may not need a wedding coordinator?  Please read on to find out why you most definitely do and why that coordinator should be Aimée Newlander of Weddings By Aimée. As mother of the bride, and retired, I thought I could do it all. But, thankfully, my daughter convinced me otherwise. Now 1 week after the wedding, I can safely say that my daughter and I could not have managed on our own. Aimée's value to my daughter and me can be measured not only in the success of our event, but in our overall joyful experience. Aimée's background and Master Timeline tool gave us confidence that our logistics were in good hands, but what made her special to us was her unrelenting support of both the couple's vision and the collaboration with me as the mom. Priceless. We met Aimée together on Zoom and we were all taken with her warmth, sincerity, and ready smile. She gave me time separately as well so I could learn how to work effectively in the context of BALANCING the perspectives of couple, mom, and coordinator as we moved through the process. Throughout the planning, Aimée gave us the benefit of her experience:  timely communication, responses to our questions, advice and Input when requested, and support when COVID presented unique and significant challenges. She was our ally when we had multiple catering managers at our venue due to COVID and other circumstances. But through it all, she held the couple's vision for their wedding as the ultimate guidepost for all design decisions, planning approaches, sustainability options, and personal touches. As the last month before the wedding approached, Aimée wanted us to feel that the hard work of planning and organization was done so we could begin to enjoy the celebration itself. She made sure we felt secure with her taking the reins with our vendors. It was easy to trust that she 'had our back'. That was crucial as late challenges with our venue creeped up and Aimée was our advocate in resolving them, representing us in the 3-way conversations she had with the venue and the event rental company. Despite repetitive and detailed communications, there were some unexpected situations that had to be handled during the day of the wedding. Here's Aimée's magic:  these were addressed 'behind the scenes' and we were blissfully unaware as we and our guests were immersed in the celebration! Aimée won our trust from the very beginning. And she never let us down. As a matter of fact, she kept us above the fray from start to finish! read more

Working with Aimee felt more like having several conversations with a good friend. She brought so much energy and love to her work that it left us wondering how one would possibly work with a different wedding planner. Not only did we feel this connection; her professionalism and attention to detail created such a bedrock that we knew our wedding would be a success from day one. And it truly was. We cannot recommend Aimee strongly enough! --Charles and Harriet read more

There are no words. There are no words to truly describe how incredible Aimée is as both a wedding planner and coordinator as well as a human being. If you are reading this and looking for the right person to help you with one of the happiest days of your life, stop right now. You've found her. Aimée has a heart of gold and will go above and beyond your wildest expectations to ensure that your special day is one filled with joy, memories, and love. We brought Aimée on to help with day of coordination for our small California destination wedding (but don't worry, she goes all over the world wanderlusters!). After reading her first email, I knew she was the right fit for us, focusing on really inviting our family and closest friends throughout the day, ensuring that we were able to enjoy our big day without stress, and perhaps most importantly for my now husband, promised we would get to eat dinner. In a world where it is made normal and acceptable to have the couple rushing around all day like crazed chickens, the bride in high stress 'bridezilla' mode, and never able to enjoy the all of their work and planning, Aimée brought calm and order to our wedding and allowed us to enjoy each and every moment. Although we hired her for day of coordination and not full planning, she was with us every step of the way, had great insight about countless things we certainly didn't think of, and was always mindful of our budget, including gently getting me to reconsider $1,000 string lights we definitely didn't need. She trekked down to Coronado twice to look at venues for us and ultimately to meet us in person when we made a trip there. My husband works 50+ hours a week and between working full time and being in graduate school myself, one of the most amazing gifts Aimée gave us was taking over all vendor management and contracts at 4 weeks out. While that final month is normally the most stressful for couples, we were able to go about our busy lives secure in our knowledge that Aimée had everything under control and if anything actually needed our attention or input, she would reach out. Our wedding day was an absolute fairy tale. As with all weddings and events, I'm sure there were a few hiccups. Whatever they were, Aimée and her awesome assistant Tara handled them and we were none the wiser. She even sent my type A self a photo of the set-up ceremony site that afternoon, which gave me the peace of mind that everything was in place. My husband spent the day relaxing with his family and I spent the day with mine and two of my closest friends while getting ready. We had numerous family members comment that it was one of the best weddings they had ever attended. Our photographer noted that we set a record for how quickly we were able to get family photos finished, thanks to Aimée's planning and directing of the group for him. Her set up of the dinner venue was exactly as we had planned and looked absolutely stunning. And guess what? We did get to eat dinner! Every single course, sitting down. It was equally important to us that we were able to spend quality time with each of our approximately 35 guests. Thanks to her timeline planning, not only were we able to do that, but she built in a few quiet moments for just the two us between the ceremony and dinner while our guests were enjoying cocktails and hor d'oeuvres. As a person Aimée is warm, kind hearted, and genuine. She truly believes in the wellbeing of the couple throughout the process and planned not only our wedding day, but the entire week leading up to it, ensuring we had a date night and some 'us' time just before the big weekend started. Wedding planning isn't just a job to her, it's truly what she was put on Earth to do, and it shows in every email, phone conversation, and planning idea that she has. We are forever grateful for her help, wisdom, and professionalism but even more importantly, her friendship after a year of planning! read more

Weddings By Aimee - Wedding Planning Near Me

Aimee is not just a wedding planner, she is a wedding guru! My husband and I started working with Aimee and her whole team a year ago to plan our California destination style wedding for June 1st. Working with the whole Weddings by Aimee team made the whole experience of planning our wedding so fun and meaningful. What Aimee does is so important, so valuable. She has so much wisdom to teach people and has the greatest gifts to give them in Slow weddings. We will be forever grateful for the wisdom and gifts she gave to us, and in the time and memories we will never forget. Aimee is incredibly creative and easy to work with. She makes asking questions easy and is a genius when it comes to communication and details. Not only that, but she also has such an amazing mindset about weddings from start to finish. That they shouldn't be hectic days that just zip by, they should be made up of many special moments that will stick with you long after the guests have left. She encourages you to slow down and enjoy the most magical day of your life. In the week leading up to our big day I received many comments from family members and friends like "Wow you seem so calm and laid back! How are you so chill?" or "Jen you just seem so happy and calm! How are you not stressed?" The answer was easy "I have Aimee!" Aimee guided us through the whole experience helping us always make choices that were the most uniquely us (all the way down to the slight Lord of the Rings theme) She cares so much about every couple she works with, is a great listener, and has the most amazing connections to vendors. She found ALL our vendors and we loved ALL of them. On our wedding weekend my husband and I and our family and friends didn't have to worry about a single thing, because Aimee and Sarah and the whole team had thoughtfully and intentionally created an entire weekend of our dreams, and all we had to do was take a deep breath and enjoy the ride. If I could shout it from the rooftops I would "WEDDINGS BY AIMEE IS THE BEST!!!!" read more

We hired Weddings By Aimee for month-of coordination services for our wedding earlier this month. My partner kept saying, "I don't think we are paying them enough!" Owner Aimee and Coordinator Sarah made us feel exceptionally well cared-for from the very first phone call -- helping us to stay present and attentive to the important stuff (family, friends, each other) in the weeks leading up to and the day of our wedding. What stands out most is their care & respect for their clients. They really listened, captured, and delivered on our vision -- with unparalleled attention-to-detail & organization! And they helped redirect me kindly & gently when their expertise knew better -- re: logistics. On wedding day, I kept asking what I could do to help (like a true control freak), and Sarah simply brought me a glass of wine and took care of the rest. When my lips went dry from chatting so much (again, focused on the important things: celebrating with our guests), she even lent me her chapstick! 11/10 would recommend :)) read more

Aimee was such a pleasure to work with. She was our biggest advocate and brought a sense of confidence and calm to the entire wedding planning process. I'm usually the organized one, as I am a project manager myself. Working with Aimee, I knew that she was handling everything and I didn't have to worry about a thing. I really appreciated how her values shined through her work. She was generous with her time, concerned about executing on our vision, and contracting with small and local vendors. Although we devastatingly decided to cancel our wedding (for now) a month beforehand due to beginning of the COVID outbreak, I am certain it would have been everything I ever dreamed of. When we did make the decision, Aimee was there helping us navigate the next steps, identify alternative options, and communicate with vendors, etc. I absolutely recommend her 100 times over. read more

Aimee is amazing! From our very first phone call, she made me feel at ease. She asked what our vision of the wedding looked like and never strayed from it. When I began to plan our wedding, I quickly realized a destination wedding would take a great deal more planning and time than I anticipated. Aimee handled every detail, many I had not even considered, and all the while being conscious of our budget. She had so many suggestions that made our day even more special. We wanted a small intimate beach wedding, but we wanted it to beautiful and memorable for our family. From the flowers to the amazing in home chef, she made our wedding better than we even imagined. Rhonda P. read more

Definitely recommend Aimee and her team - she was attentive, had good recommendations on vendors as well as ideas to incorporate into our wedding and helped us stay to true to our wedding vision - even when it was sometimes difficult with family opinions, etc. Aimee also has a calm and warm demeanor, which is SO invaluable during the wedding planning process and of course on the wedding day. In addition, she came through on a few things at the last minute that we ended up needing last minute. Our actual wedding day was so amazing and so magical, everything went so great and my husband and I just got enjoy it and not worry about it a thing. It was perfect - thank you Aimee! read more

We want to start by saying that this is a very sad and difficult review to write. We were drawn to Aimée because of her stated focus on mindful, sustainable weddings and hired her to be our day-of wedding coordinator. When we hired her, we were well into our wedding planning process (with a very well-developed vision) and she sold us on her ability to help us execute our vision while ensuring we had the time and space to be fully present on our wedding day. Unfortunately, the service and experience she promised us never came to fruition. Throughout the planning process, our communications with Aimée were confusing and jumbled. Her emails were long and disorganized, with many typos. Often, when we thought we were on the same page, it later became clear that things had been lost in translation. She told us she was very used to DIY weddings, yet later insisted we hire an extra assistant because of the amount of DIY elements. Due to an unexpected sickness, Aimée understandably missed our one in-person vendor walk-through (she sent her assistant, Jake) but proceeded to follow up with all vendors via email after the walk-through asking the same questions that had already been discussed at length and answered in person. There were multiple instances in which it appeared that information we provided to Aimée never made it to the intended party (caterer, florist, etc.). Our venue had no idea that rental drop-off and set-up was happening Friday morning, something Aimée should have made very clear. All of these hiccups, of course, made us nervous but we chose to trust Aimée, hoping everything would come together on our wedding day. Unfortunately, the personal, high-touch, detail-oriented service that Aimée promised never materialized. She was far less prepared and organized than we were. Once our wedding began, we never saw Aimée, despite many assurances from her that she would be our go-to person throughout the evening. Many important elements of our decor and vision were forgotten or misused, despite hours of discussion and meticulous prep we'd done to prepare Aimée. Our lovingly handmade photo displays were not displayed until the bride asked where they were; they were then placed in the dark theater that was intended only for dancing. No candles or flowers were placed throughout the garden, on cocktail tables, bar back, etc. until the bride tracked down a team member and asked that they be put out. Our guest favors were placed on a separate table from the sign explaining the favors, rendering them unidentifiable as guest gifts. Many guests expressed confusion about where to sit, where to find the dancing, etc. because of the lack of guidance, and even incorrect instructions, from Aimée's team. The bridesmaids had to step in at multiple points to help with things Aimée's team had promised - arranging the bride's train, assisting with the bride's makeup post-ceremony, helping VIPs figure out where to sit, etc. The large barn doors in the dancing space were never opened, despite a long conversation about the need for good ventilation for COVID safety. Sadly, the list goes on and on. To give credit where credit is due, Aimée did help us find our incredible florist, Amy Rawling of Blue Moon Blooms, as well as our caterer, Five Star Catering, and a very kind dog-sitter who watched our fur baby on our wedding day. We're grateful for the connections she shared with us. After the wedding, Aimée never reached out to check in. My husband called her multiple times before finally calling her assistant who told Aimée to call us. When we raised our concerns with Aimee, she was, for the most part, defensive, argumentative, and unwilling to take responsibility for the mistakes that were made. She was focused on providing excuses and explanations (wind, too many DIY items, unexpected on-site issues, etc.) for what had gone wrong. She did not demonstrate any curiosity about how she could have delivered a better experience nor any true compassion for the stress we felt on our wedding day. A simple acknowledgment of what went wrong and apology would have gone a long way. We were hopeful that we could have a respectful, honest conversation with Aimée following the wedding and were extremely dismayed to part ways on such a sour note. It's worth noting that the bride has worked in event planning for quite a few years and understands better than anyone that last-minute things always come up and require problem-solving, flexibility, competence, and creativity. That's exactly why we hired a day-of coordinator. Unfortunately, for the hefty price we paid and the expectations Aimée set about the service she would provide, the outcome was a deep disappointment. If you are organized, comfortable with event planning, and have a strong vision, we would refer you to someone who is a better listener, a more engaged problem-solver, and more detail-oriented. read more

Aimee is the kind of person you don't get to meet or interact with every day. We met her by a sort of happy accident, and quickly knew that we couldn't pull this off without her. She was so nurturing and at the same time has everything on the ball, I felt completely at ease during the planning process. She is just the right amount assertive, and asks a lot of questions to make sure she knows exactly what you want. There are many reframes so that she is positive everyone is on the same page. We had about a year to work with her and create a vision-one that was so incredibly enhanced by her participation. We were married on 11/2/13 at the Monarch Cove Inn, and were absolutely graced by the weather gods. We've heard from family and friends that our wedding was either the best wedding they ever went to or is in their top 5. Any sort of a shindig I'd put together on my own would never have received such accolades. Family is something very important to Aimee, and she urged us to include some special heirlooms and writings to grandparents who were no longer with us on our day, and they absolutely made the reception. It's been the first wave of holiday get togethers so we're seeing family just a few weeks after the wedding, and I'm still getting so many compliments on all of the touches Aimee encouraged us to include. Aimee is your advocate: we had a few snafus with vendors, and she was always there to offer guidance on how to handle it or to fix whatever was wrong herself. I'm shocked by some of the other reviews on this page, as I never found Aimee to be anything other than incredibly organized, timely and genuine. I gave her a break during peak wedding season, recognizing that she had many other blushing brides to work with, but even in those hectic times, I felt like I was still on her radar. I completely trust Aimee, and I think that you will too. She is a realist, and I can't say it enough: your advocate through the entire process. I've gushed about her so many times, I think some of my family was thinking ok, ok, what is the deal with Aimee? After meeting her, everyone has had nothing but amazing things to say as well. Now we all sit around gushing about Aimee :) My Maid of Honor attended a planning meeting with me and said that Aimee (and the venue) were so wonderful, it made her want to get married all over again just to work with her. Aimee was my first wedding planner, but I found her prices to be fair. It's not a cheap service because it's an insane amount of work. We had so many meetings, and email exchanges, and meetings, and even a few beers (not on the clock of course)-she was so available to us. Everyone said I was creepily relaxed on my wedding day, and I attribute 90% of this to Aimee (and that I was pretty into that dude I married)-I think she was up at sunrise, and probably worked a 16 hour day-but everything was perfect, and she was so calm it kept everything rolling right along. She even brought me some sort of hippie breakfast to eat to make sure I had protein. Such a sweetheart! Hire Aimee, it will be the smartest thing you do after you say Yes to that ring. read more

Where do we begin to compile the many ways in which Aimée and her team contributed to the magic of our series of special days? From the first moment we spoke by phone across the miles, we knew she was THE ONE to fulfill our vision for the perfect destination wedding. Planning such an important event from such a distance is daunting, and Aimée never ceased to make us feel as though everything was firmly within her grasp. No detail was left unnoticed, and she was always accessible, exuberant, and frankly, just as excited as we were for our wedding events to take place. We felt we'd known her for years before we met for the first time upon our arrival in California. Aimée consistently shared innovative ideas, provided budget-conscious planning considerations, and made sure that we never allowed the littlest details to overwhelm the bigger picture - our upcoming marriage. We are so grateful for the seamless coordination and management of our beautiful San Francisco rehearsal, rehearsal dinner, wedding day festivities - including a mid-day City Hall ceremony (no simple feat), and our gorgeous, glamorous reception. Additionally, Aimée's recommended partner vendor referrals were also a blessing, and our glowing reviews extend beyond to our DJ (DJ Sparkle), photographer (Hayley Anne Photography), and Aimée's assistant, Jake Karecki (an absolute gem). If we could recreate our experience all over again, we would relive every moment in exactly the same way, start to finish. At the end of the day, our wedding was so perfectly simple and "us".  Along with our families, we will reminisce fondly forever on our wedding - we are so indebted to Weddings by Aimée for making our events so incredibly beautiful and momentous! read more

One of my best friends got married at the beginning of September and all I heard through the planning process was, Aimee is great and Aimee told me I should do this. I didn't understand her complete infatuation with her wedding coordinator until I met Aimee. She was fabulous, professional and had a way of talking that put my friend ( who is usually stressed and high strung where her wedding was involved) completely at ease. She came prepared with a giant bag of anything we might need that day, made sure the bride was calm and collected, kept everything on schedule and was an absolute delight to be around. I am getting married in October and the first thing I told my fiance when we left Capitola was "I need Aimee, She's amazing I love her" . I got in contact with her right away and she came out to Monterey the following Monday to meet with us. She was wonderful, very organized, and detail oriented. Aimee sets the bar for wedding coordinators and planners, I would highly recommend using her for your wedding. read more

It was by accident that Amanda and I met Aimée. We had spent the better part of two months looking for a venue. While we certainly wanted our wedding to be unique, more importantly we wanted our wedding to be us. But after two months, we were about to give up, and would have selected one of several venues that were beautiful but not perfect. Thankfully, when were nearing rope's end, we met Aimée. We hadn't intended on working with a coordinator, but Green Oaks Creek Farm appeared close to what we were looking for. So we called Aimée and arranged to meet and visit the farm. Walking away from that first meeting, we knew right away that we had found exactly what we were looking for. In addition to a beautiful farm for our outdoor wedding, Aimée was tireless and amazing in helping us put together the most perfect and beautiful wedding that was so quintessentially us. Aimée took the time to build a relationship with us to make that happen. In getting to know us, Aimée got to know the wedding that we wanted. She was able to help us fill in details of our wedding that we would not have otherwise been able to ourselves (the trombonist leading us from the cocktail hour to the reception - that was Aimée's idea). Aimée does her job because she truly wants couples to have the day that will be most special to them. Besides helping us put our vision into focus, Aimée did all of the things you would want from a coordinator. She made multiple trips to meet us at the farm, met with us in Santa Cruz, had several meetings with us over Skype, and communicated with us on a regular basis. She's super thorough and organized, which was particularly great in the two weeks leading up to the wedding when she took sole responsibility of coordinating with vendors. Her experience in the Bay Area also helped us immensely as we were able to use several of her recommendations for our vendors. By the time the wedding day rolled around, every detail was so well thought out that Amanda and I never had to worry about a single thing. Aimée made coordinating our wedding a very personal matter. We had a truly beautiful wedding that Amanda and I have the rest of our lives to be thankful for. read more

As my wife and I moved from SF to Seattle, we realized (although well immersed in our wedding plans) that we needed help. We searched high and low through thumbtack, google searches, yelp, etc.) for a day of coordinator. We had a limited budget and were needing someone to review our wedding plans, and help us firm up timelines etc. and just look professionally at our DIY planned wedding and make sure we weren't missing anything (being first-timers!). Aimee was great from the very first moment. She was able to work with our crazy work schedules and allowed us to chat via Skype when we couldn't meet in person. She was attentive and enthusiastic, and made it very easy to trust that she knew exactly what she was doing without ever stepping on or ignoring our requests (even if they were outlandish). When it came down to it, we had a perfect wedding it. It rained (for the first time in ages in Monterey) on our wedding weekend. Our officiant needed replacing the week of the wedding. Our best man wore the wrong tux colors. And our venue was super laxed and did not end up preparing the venue to accommodate our seating arrangements, nor did they keep their end of the deal to help decorate our tables. Aimee revised our timelines with our officiant changes. She made the executive decision to tarp our venue and made sure we felt comfortable with the plan changes to the layout so that we could think about other things. She and her assistant, Sarah (also so lovely!) volunteered to take on helping decorate our venue where the venue couldn't. And she kept our families relaxed despite their personalities (LOL!). Where I had one plan of our table layouts, she and Sarah tastefully simplified it and in the end, I was actually thrilled that they didn't overdue the tables like I had requested. I truly believe the ticket to a successful wedding is as follows: 1. Know what details are your priorities, and what details aren't. 2. Limit your vision on those things that aren't worth it. 3. Hire the right vendors... Because the vendors take over when you lose your mind the weekend of your wedding, and they make sound judgement calls where you can't. And they perfect the details you predetermined were worth it. Aimee and Sarah were angels sent for our wedding perfection. Our guests raved about how "cute" and "sweet" they were. These ladies were physically exhausted by the end of the night and still smiling and most concerned about our happiness over anything else. They created and forced moments for us to have a chance to breathe and take it all in. And all of our other vendors were so pleased to have them as well. Dalene and I couldn't have been happier with our day. It was intimate, and unique. And completely reflective of us. Because of Aimee and Sarah. Thank you! read more

There are not enough words (or stars) to reflect my affinity for Aimee and working with her + team + vendors. Over the 10 month Wedding planning process I truly found someone that I will call a friend for life. Aimee is THE BEST there is. I literally discovered Aimee on Yelp [lucky me] as I was looking for a Wedding Coordinator to work with in the Aptos, CA area. Just based on her previous reviews, I reached out to set up a face-to-face meeting. From the moment we met, I had a wonderful feeling about her...she has a huge warm smile that will make you feel like you've always known her. Aimee spent a nice bit of time getting to know us each (as a couple and individuals) and what we wanted for our Wedding Day. From that meeting, it made sense that she is the one I wanted to have by my side during this experience. Initially I was only going to hire a Wedding Coordinator for the "Day Of", but I ended up working with Aimee on our Wedding Day, Rehearsal Dinner and a Ladies Brunch that I hosted for my Bridesmaids. All turned out PERFECTLY. Aimee reflects a true and genuine feeling of care and comfort. She has a go-getter attitude and is able to handle anything you throw her way; and is able to do it with the utmost gentleness, care and her awesome smile! I am a Type-A personality who likes to think I can handle all the details, but I assure you - - to have someone like Aimee by your side during this time is unequivocally the BEST decision you will make during the Wedding planning process. She is able to make suggestions on design and vendors (she has the best ones in her back pocket); which will make the experience more enjoyable for you and your Fiance. You truly will not meet people like her in the Wedding industry. She is a diamond in the rough. ....and like I said, forever a friend. read more

Updated to add more regarding her wedding planning package (see below). Review for the fabulous, supportive venue search Aimee provided for me and my fiancé (free of charge, to boot): Mark and I are new to the area, and I fortuitously called Aimee while doing some searching online for a venue she does bookings for. She suggested we meet in person for a discussion about what we want out of a venue. At that meeting, she really got to know us and made us feel comfortable and relaxed around her. We had a good time and felt more excited about the venue choosing process because of her happy and friendly attitude. Over the course of several weekends, Aimee kept in touch with me via email, sent directions, and planned several venue tours for us, and accompanied us for most of them. She even planned us an entire "beach day", touring venues along route 1, and walked us through our first choice venue. The last weekend, we felt conflicted with lots of great options and confusion about how much each one would truly cost. Aimee showed us one last venue option and brought us down the road to a nearby winery. There, with some glasses of wine, we took a pragmatic look at the worst-case cost of each of our top choices. Then, we discussed what qualities we liked best of our choices. She then left us alone to think it over, and due to her help, we found the best place for us. We hired Aimee as our coordinator after our venue search, and have had our first planning meeting, where we ran over our thoughts and ideas regarding the master timeline. Aimee came over to our house (such a sweetheart to drive from Santa Cruz to Palo Alto), and felt totally comfortable throwing out creative ideas and plans for the weekend of the wedding. Since then, she has sent us a living document for the timeline, and we have sent it back and forth for edits and more ideas. She's set up tastings for desserts and full-service catering and has been so available for contact (I can text her whenever, and she'll always be quick to answer). I can't sing her praises enough! read more

If there is ever a time in life when you need someone dependable, caring, honest, hard working, and dedicated it has to be on your wedding day! Aimee was all these things and more for myself and my husband on November 8, 2020. First of all, we decided to get married during a pandemic year and make it a go with a micro wedding (~40 people) and a destination wedding at that, as I live down in Southern California. I contacted Aimee by her rave reviews from the airbnb owner of the Chateau I was renting for the venue in Carmel Valley, CA. She has TONS of experience that you can witness yourself on her website, but I must say the experience was even more evident when each vendor I worked with spoke so highly of her! It was almost, "Oh Aimee!! She's so wonderful!" at the start of each conversation! She has the best line up of vendors to recommend that fit what you envision, sets a timeline beautifully, met with us frequently every few weeks (via zoom since it was during the Covid stay at home order), followed up almost the same day with her email correspondence, and was even available by text if need be. Her team I also worked with was Jake and Wendy, both of which were also a pleasure to work with! BUT, the BIGGEST thing anyone needs is a good PLAN B for anything possible on such an important day as your wedding. For us it was the weather and the Covid pandemic. First of all, Aimee wrote a well detailed email for our guests regarding Covid safety precautions we were taking for guests to feel comfortable attending an event and sure enough ALL our guests rsvp'd YES as that email made everything clear and answered all questions. Secondly, weeks before the wedding, wildfires came within miles of our venue and Aimee kept us updated with the current containment % and contacted the owner as well for even more detailed updates! (Thankfully, it was spared within just miles!). Third, wind and rain attacked the weekend of our wedding and Aimee was able to hold a tent for us to use as covering as the Covid circumstance required an outdoor event. She came through TIME AND AGAIN! She is so amazing at what she does but even more than that, she is the most beautiful person full of love, and exuding joy, and kindness. Work with this woman! My husband and I already miss having her in our lives! Thank you, Aimee we will never forget all you've done for us!!! read more

This review is way overdue! My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Aimee on what turned out to be the most memorable and fun days of our lives. Roughly seven months before our big day, I finally decided it was time to call someone to help us out with planning! We had secured my dream venue down in Santa Cruz, however the big catch was that the venue came with nada. When trying to work with the vendor it became very obvious that a recommended vendor list was not an option and we could not rely on them for any help. This meant my fiance and I would be planning everything in an area we weren't from nor lived in. After checking a few places and meeting with a couple of wedding coordinators, we came across Aimee. I reached out via email and within a week the three of us were meeting at Sports Basement in SF. Instantaneously, my now husband and I knew that we wanted to work with Aimee we just needed to fit her services into our budget. While we hadn't planned on the costs of hiring a coordinator, Aimee was able to work with us to create a package that met our needs and budget. This made it a super easy decision to hire Aimee on the spot! From our initial meeting we went over what was most important to us, things that were musts and no-no's, our vision, and budget. This was something that we used throughout our planning and really was the building blocks for our big day. From choosing our catering to helping us pick the perfect lighting to organizing a donut pick up with out of town friends, Aimee helped make every aspect of our day perfect. If anything went off course, I can honestly say I did not notice and our wedding day was absolutely fabulous! Aside from her being the most down to earth, bad ass, get you through it all woman, Aimee will get it done. I would recommend her and her vendors to any friend or family member with a huge smile on my face! read more

We, like many couples this season, have had our wedding plans turned upside down because of the pandemic. Thankfully we had Aimée Newlander as our wedding planner to lean on. Her experience as a top-notch wedding planner and "can-do" spirit is what made our new wedding plans possible. With her guidance through these difficult times, we have been able to keep our original vision of our special day intact. Aimee was very quick to act as our advocate in communication with all our vendors. She took the difficult work upon herself in rescheduling and getting new contracts with each vendor, which provided huge stress relief for us. Although it's been a very unfortunate and sad situation for us to have to postpone our wedding out 1 year, Aimee is the reason it has been a smooth process for us, she was there (and is there) for us every step of the way! We look forward to continuing to work with her throughout this next year, and we know our wedding day, when it happens, will be perfect in every way we dreamed of because of Aimee's dedication to what she does. We feel lucky to have found her! read more

Weddings by Aimee was by far the best decision we had made for ourselves! Sarah and Aimee were just fantastic! They were attentive, accommodating, sweet, supportive, caring, efficient, and creative. All in all, they were the complete package. I cannot sing their praises enough, all I can do is acknowledge and share how amazing they were/are. They made our wedding day truly a day to remember, and I can easily say that it was the best day of my life so far. They gave us the gift of a lifetime, and we appreciate all that they accomplished for us, thoroughly. Thank you Sarah and Aimee, you are the best! read more

We loved working with Aimee and Sarah for our wedding a green oaks creek farm. They were incredibly hard working, patience and their guidance throughout the almost 1.5 year process kept us sane and happy. Our entire wedding weekend was perfect celebration of joy, love and happiness. Sarah was an amazing support throughout the entire process and her organization skills made the weekend go without a hitch. Aimee created a wonderful, professional, thoughtful team that brings out the best in the wedding industrial complex. We always felt heard and there was a willingness to complete our vision. I would recommend them fully read more

We got engaged in November of last year and due to our tight work schedules, we wanted to try to get married in mid-May. We knew we needed help to pull off planning a wedding in 6 months and luckily we found Aimee on yelp. We contacted Aimee by phone and she got right back to me. Aimee did a free consultation with us and explained what she could offer us. She has multiple packages from only helping find wedding venues to day of coordination to the full package deal. We were instantly impressed by her professionalism and her true desire to make your wedding special and unique. Aimee helped us from start to finish with finding a venue, securing vendors, guiding us with wedding decor choices, helping keep us on task with our own duties, and doing our day of coordination. Aimee was invaluable to us and our wedding would have been completely different without her. She made it absolutely perfect and the day ran so smoothly. I was truly able to relax and enjoy the whole day without issue. I would absolutely recommend Aimee to any of my friends and especially speak highly of her day of coordination skills. read more
