About Happily Ever After by Amy

Happily Ever After by Amy

I moved to the Aurora / Naperville area in 2016 from Los Angeles, California. While living in L.A. for 17 years, I organized and managed events for countless affairs on behalf of the biggest names in the industry. I made the move back to the Midwest to get closer to my roots, be near loved ones and to start my own business doing what I truly love and excel in – making a bride’s dream a reality.

I consider myself an exceptionally organized, detail-oriented professional who works well with others. I act as an advocate for my clients to ensure all expectations are met and there are no surprises. It is my hope that clients can relax and enjoy the entire wedding planning journey.

In three words: Calm, Creative, Honest

Description

Our team takes a very hands on approach for our full package clients. From building your budget, to finding your venue, vendors, decor and theme, timelines, accommodations, etc., we offer guidance on all major decisions and all the little ones in between. We believe that every detail contributes to executing the perfect event and because of this, we only book one wedding a weekend, so that our couples are our only priority.

Our Partial planning package is very similar to our Full-service planning package, except our clients already have a venue and date secured. We help with finding the best vendors for your wedding, along with creating a design, decor and theme for your wedding and everything in between! This package also includes complete timeline creation and running your wedding rehearsal.

  • Absolutely PHENOMENAL Wedding Planner!!

    •Verified review
    •Katie A.•Jan 29

    I got married last October, and one of the best decisions I made during wedding planning was hiring Amy as our wedding coordinator. I truly would have been lost without her! She went above and beyond any of my expectations. She was extremely responsive, offered her expertise / advice and even was willing to work directly with our vendors. In a couple of cases, she even negotiated with them on our behalf to help make sure we were getting exactly what we wanted for our special day. Throughout the whole process, Amy was extremely organized, and kept us on track with everything. On the day-of, we had to last minute pivot from an outdoor ceremony to indoor due to weather conditions one hour before the wedding was supposed to start. Amy kept me calm, cool and collected and made sure our back-up setup was as beautiful as it could be. During the reception, she even made sure my husband and I took time to scarf down our food in between socializing with guests. Her organization and timeliness is unmatched, and it made our wedding the best day of our lives. I would hire Amy 100/10 times. She was phenomenal, and I'm eternally grateful that we found her! I truly don't think my experience with wedding planning would have been the same without her.

    Awww. Thanks Katie! I loved working with you, Nick and your families. It was a beautiful day (regardless of the weather!) and I'm so happy to hear it was the best day of your lives!
