And it was all thanks to the incredible team of people we had. Thank you for bringing our vision to life, I couldn’t have been happier bringing you in. You allowed me to enjoy and be present in every moment knowing you were on top of everything and making sure the night ran smoothly. Thank you for getting our family in line for photos and transforming that amazing venue into something straight out of a movie. You heard our vision and executed it perfectly!

We can't stop talking about how smooth it went and what a great time it was. The comments about how everything went so smoothly are still coming in from friends and family! Thank you a million! We've already recommended Ashley Brooke Weddings to people we know getting married and will continue to do so in the future, she's a must! :)

Thank you doesn’t even begin to express our gratitude for planning our wedding. We wanted a small intimate wedding in the first place but due to the the pandemic we didn’t realize just how small it would be! You kept us up to date on what was allowed and what wasn’t and still planned and executed the perfect intimate wedding for us our and families. Thank you for taking care of booking our vendors, setting up the decor and creating an inviting and intimate wedding that was beyond what we could have planned ourselves.

Ashley, thank you for being our wedding coordinator. You went above and beyond our expectations and we are so thankful to have you. You and your team were able to bring our vision to life and we appreciate your care and considerations leading up to the special day. Our wedding day went by so smoothly thanks to your hard work and attention to small details. I know Hyemi and I were able to enjoy and share the memories of getting married together without the worries of the “other stuff”. We can not say thank you enough and definitely wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to any couples planning their wedding.

The smartest decision we ever made in regards to our wedding was hiring Ashley Brooke Weddings for day-of coordination. Not only was Ashley professional, but she was extremely organized, helpful, and full of ideas and knowledge. Planning our wedding was such a large task and we could not have done it without her. Prior to the wedding day, she met with us many times to discuss all the little details and make sure everything was executed perfectly. When we showed Ashley the stacks and stacks of decor that she would be setting up in only about two hours right before the ceremony and reception, there wasn't a doubt in our minds that she was the right woman for the job. We trusted her ability to make quick decisions and solve any issues that may arise. Our wedding day was stress free, beautiful, and maybe even perfect. We have Ashley to thank for this, because she allowed us to truly relax and enjoy ourselves. Thank you for being such an important part of our very special day!" Having Ashley on the day of the wedding made a huge difference. We didn't have to worry about a thing - she was very organized and coordinated everything from the first look, made sure all the wedding party and our families knew what was going on, and make sure we were on track the whole time. Her help was invaluable, and every single detail was taken care of. It was so nice to be able to just relax and enjoy the wedding day, party with our friends and family, and not have to think about anything else except that! When we look back at our wedding day, we are SO glad hat we had a wedding planner. There are so many details and things to remember when planning a wedding that it's inevitable that something will be missed but having an organized wedding coordinator to help you out eliminates this stress and enables you to kick back and just enjoy being a bride! We can honestly say that we had the perfect wedding day and we wouldn't change a thing! Thanks Ashley! :)

Thank you so so much for everything. Your help and support were invaluable, not only to us, but to our parents and the whole wedding party. Your attention to detail and your laidback nature meshed very well with our vibe and were a big calming influence. We would (and will!) recommend you to anyone else in a heartbeat.
