    Andi is the best designer I have ever worked with, hands down. Her ability to visualize and create her clients' dream wedding is truly incredible. She is very detail-oriented and her designs are always fresh and unique. If you want a WOW-factor wedding, you need Andi to bring it to life!

    There are not enough words to describe the magical environment "Andi Allen Events" created for our special day!! From the very beginning Andi and her team took the bits and pieces we told her we wanted and created something we could have never imagined. The "Ohh's and Ahhh's" were actually audible from our guests as they entered the ceremony area as well as the dinner party- It's been almost 3 weeks since our perfect day and we are still hearing our guests gush over how our wedding was "the most intimate and glamorous wedding they have ever attended"! I would hire Andi and her team again hands down-- she listens, she takes away the stress of all the planning and creates a visual experience like that of a gifted artist! Thank you Andi Allen Events!!

    We were referred to Andi by a friend who raved about her work. We determined Andi's style is what we wanted for our big day, and we knew we would not be disappointed! Andi absolutely blew our minds when she designed our wedding; ... I was so pleased with Andi's work, and I think hiring an experienced professional like Andi was one of my best decisions in the wedding planning process. We are blessed to have made a friend in Andi and loved having her as part of our wedding!!

    My husband and I were so blessed to have Andi on our team! I knew she was going to do an amazing job after seeing the amazing job she did with my younger sisters wedding. But nothing could have predicted the perfection she gave us for our reception and wedding ceremony! She did a great job keeping in contact with me through the whole process and even when I didn't have the words to describe what I wanted she knew exactly what I was looking for! I swear the woman could read my mind! Thank you Andi for making our day bigger and better than we could have ever imagined!

    Andi Allen gave me my dream wedding! I wanted a classy, whimsical, medieval, Lord of the Rings inspired theme. Not only did she deliver, but all my guests had the best time. I will never forget my special day. She also went out of her way to create new ideas and kept the day organized. The photographer, makeup artist, hairstylist, and other helpers said it was the easiest and most well organized wedding they had every worked. I would recommend Andi Allen Events to anyone who wants a creative and amazing planner!
