We cannot say enough wonderful things about Amy Melody, our wedding month-of-coordinator! From the moment we met her, Amy impressed us with her professionalism and enthusiastic demeanor. She was incredibly organized and experienced, which was evident in every aspect of her work. Amy was an excellent collaborator as we planned our wedding from scratch. During our virtual calls, Amy took the time to listen to all of our preferences, needs, and concerns during the planning process. Her excitement about our event was contagious!We had a site visit to our venue (Fort Getty in Jamestown, RI) and Amy arrived early to scout the location. When we arrived, she had a ton of great ideas for the event layout and had a back up plan ready for all of our concerns. Leading up to our big day, Amy created a detailed timeline that was shared seamlessly with all of our vendors, ensuring that everyone was on the same page. This meticulous planning gave us so much confidence that everything would run smoothly on our big day. On the day of the wedding, Amy and her assistant went above and beyond. They arrived extra early to set up our flower arrangement centerpieces and all of our decor, making sure everything looked perfect. When an unexpected torrential downpour began, Amy and her assistant remained remarkably calm and upbeat. Although we were in an open-air pavilion, Amy and her assistant handled the situation with grace and helped all of our vendors stay on schedule and remain dry. Amy had a bag of supplies a la Mary Poppins with zip ties, table weights, towels, umbrellas, and all of the other items that we could never have thought to bring, but made an incredible difference in the outcome of the day. During the night, Amy made sure the event ran smoothly. She seamlessly organized a buffet line, coordinated with our MC to make sure the speeches were on time, and ensured that the gifts and cards were secured before the end of the night. Amy was also accommodating to our families, ensuring that they were comfortable and had everything they needed. Thanks to Amy's dedication and expertise, our wedding day was absolutely magical. We are so grateful for her hard work and would highly recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking to hire a wedding coordinator!

I was on the fence on hiring a planner and let me just say, I am soooo thankful I chose to do so. Amy was amazing to work with and made my day so much easier as I did not have to worry about anything. We discussed where and how I wanted the decorations and she executed it so perfectly, it was exactly how I imagined. She even came in clutch multiple times with bobby pins when I decided I no longer wanted my front hair pieces out as well as double sided sticky patches to hold my lightweight memorial items down on the table as it was an outside event & rainy. I am so grateful for her taking so much stress off my shoulders!!
Your wedding day will flow smoothly with her!

I am wedding photographer and I worked with Amy last summer. I would recommend her to engaged couples. She is an expert planner and communicator. Your wedding day will flow smoothly with her!
