Reviews of Amanda Price Events (Event Planner)

Ashley Barado (InvitoBella)

We hired Amanda almost two year ago as our day of coordinator for our wedding as we did not have one at our venue and because we are from out of town. Over those two years she helped with whatever we needed. She attended walkthroughs, organized timelines, and was a great sounding board for ideas. The week leading up to our 7/12 wedding she contacted all of our vendors worked with them on the timeline and really made us feel stress free with all the moving pieces coming together. Fast forward to 7/10 and we realized our wedding probably would not be happening at our chosen venue due to Tropical Storm Barry. Amanda was calm through the entire thing including multiple sobbing phone conversations with me and really made us feel supported in whatever decision we made. At around 6 pm on 7/10 we decided to cancel our wedding on 7/12 and throw a whole new one at a whole new venue on 7/11. Because of her awesome reputation and contacts she literally rescheduled a whole wedding with all our vendors for the next day. I had never even been to this venue before our wedding day. Amanda not only pulled this off but it was such an amazing day. I seriously can not thank her enough. Without a doubt if it wasn’t for her I would probably still be crying over my wedding that could have been instead of glowing in the aftermath of the best day of my life. If you are on the fence about whether or not you need an event coordinator let me tell you that you do. They do all of the worrying for you and come up with plans a, b, c or in my case plan d. Amanda does all of this and still has a smile on her face. I can not recommend her enough. Thank you Amanda !

Amanda was the BEST wedding planner and easily the BEST choice I made for my wedding. She was organized, knowledgeable, relatable, and responsive. She has connections in the industry that made some of my more odd requests very easy. She also never pushed me in one direction or the other but listened to what I wanted and acted on it or offered sage advice. She was an excellent mediator and listener for my parents who didn’t always agree. The day of the wedding, she was the calmness I needed. NOTHING phased me on that day because I knew Amanda could, and did, handle it. I’m sure something didn’t go as planned on my big day but I have NO IDEA what it was because Amanda made sure I never had to deal with it. She kept me and my husband moving around the room the whole night, kept us to a schedule for pictures, eating, made sure I had a drink in my hand, and that all of the odd requests like “a random picture with my step-sister at some point in the night” was taken care of. And, when it was all over, it was over. I didn’t have to contact vendors, return items, get my things from the venue. Amanda handled it all so I got to just sit back and relax after a stressful few days. My bridesmaids, guests, and parent’s friends loved her and asked for her name for their events. And my dad loved her – I can’t give her higher praise than that! I have referred her several times since and will continue to do so! THANK YOU, AMANDA!

We used Amanda for day-of coordination for our wedding. Amanda is friendly, organized, thorough, and hard-working. Looking back at our big day, she was hands down the BEST person we had working to bring everything together. She not only made us feel excited and celebrated on the big day - she handled every detail behind the scenes and made the event run smoothly! I cannot recommend Amanda and her team enough!!! :)

AP was the absolute best and made our wedding run so smoothly. She was so easy to talk to and make decisions with and she was direct enough to get things done and get them done quickly and respectfully. She made my husband and I’s dream wedding a reality. We not only formed a great relationship with her, but our entire family did as well. I didn’t realize how helpful it was so have a planner until we met Amanda. We still to this day talk to Amanda and I can’t wait to see her again soon!

Amanda is straight up gold to have in your corner on wedding day! As a wedding photographer, it is beneficial to have an assertive, organized planner to keep the flow of the day stress free and on time. After working with her one time, I could see how much she values her clients AND her vendors! Anytime an Amanda Price couple hires me I do the biggest happy dance because I know everything is going to be more than ok, but most of all FUN! You will not go wrong hiring her as your planner.

Amazing! Amanda made sure everything ran smoothly from the day I signed with her until the end of the wedding day, even with me being indecisive/last minute with many choices. Super fun to work with & very professional 10/10!!

Amanda was the wedding planner for the recent wedding of my son and daughter in law. I thought that she did a great job. The wedding day went very smoothly and it was a beautiful event. I used her printer for the place cards and signage at the rehearsal dinner and was very pleased. Also she was a pleasure to work with.

WE LOVE AMANDA. I will never be able to thank Amanda enough for her work leading up to, and especially on, our wedding day. From the very beginning she jumped in with perfect vendor recommendations for our budget and vision, and continued to make sure we had every detail tied down in our contracts as we went along, and finally handled all communications with vendors in the last 6 weeks leading up to the wedding. You will understand as you approach your wedding date how crucial this service is -- the stress sets in and the last thing you want to do is coordinate logistics with 10+ vendors. Being able to trust someone as experienced, well-connected and skilled as Amanda is a blessing! The timeline she put together for our wedding weekend was very well thought out, detailed, and critical to the seamless flow of the day. Our families and bridal parties loved the transparency and information in the timeline and it made everyone feel more at ease. At one point before the wedding, Amanda told me that for one day in my (very Type A) life, I can kick back, focus on enjoying my new husband and guests who have traveled to celebrate with us, and let her handle all of the nitty gritty details/ logistics/ other annoyances that popped up. I truly cannot thank her enough for taking all of this weight off of my shoulders and empowering and encouraging me to fully soak in that beautiful day. I had absurdly high expectations, and she exceeded every single one of them. If you hire her, I can assure you that you'll feel the same way. After the wedding, countless guests asked us about Amanda's services because they had never thought to engage a coordinator or planner, but could now readily see the invaluable service they provide. Our wedding was truly the best day of our lives and we have to thank Amanda from the bottom of our hearts for making it so perfect!

Where do we even begin with how amazing Amanda was for our big day. We used Amanda's month of wedding planning, and it was definitely a necessity we didn't know we needed! She is with you every step of the way. She thought of every detail that never crossed our minds. She reviewed all of our contracts and kept in close contact with all of our vendors to make sure everything was taken care of. I cannot say how much it meant to not have to worry about a single thing on the day of the wedding. She kept us calm and relaxed making sure we were able to soak up every moment and truly enjoy ourselves. If something went wrong on our wedding day, I have no clue to this day! She even reminded me to eat and drink water while getting ready. She comes with an amazing assistant and kit of everything you could possibly need last minute. Not kidding about that, everything from make up to double stick tape to medications and other emergency needs! She is truly a gem and someone who deserves all the praise! We absolutely loved her and cannot say enough about her!

We had the best experience working with Amanda. I can't recommend her highly enough. We had to reschedule our wedding due to COVID and she helped us navigate everything with ease. We would have been lost without her support and guidance. She went above and beyond throughout our entire experience. There were so many times we looked at each other and said how thankful we were for her!

Theresa Matherne

If you want the best in New Orleans, there is no need to look anywhere else for your wedding planner. Amanda will take care of every need and concern. Every dad wants his daughter's day to be perfect and Amanda made sure that happened. Couldn't give her a higher rating! Thanks Amanda!!

Jaci Dunn

We truly would not have been able to pull off our wedding without Amanda Price and Amanda Tissue. Navigating wedding planning from afar during a pandemic is difficult, but these two made the entire process so incredibly easy and organized - no detail was left behind. From seamlessly coordinating with our vendors, to meticulously detailed schedules, to helping us get our marriage license woes solved the week of the wedding, and beyond - we cannot recommend working with Amanda Price and team enough. Thank you!! Big shout out to Amanda Tissue who was with us our entire wedding day and felt like a part of our family!

Our wedding was absolutely flawless because of Amanda Price Events! Mandy spent a year orchestrating everything for our wedding and there is a reason she is the best in the business. She's a planning perfectionist and thinks of every detail so you don't have to. Her expertise in the event industry was invaluable during this process and she is with you through all the highs and lows to make sure your day is beyond perfect. Thinking back on our big day I can honestly say there is no one else who could have done what Mandy did for Cody and I. After all is said and done, I was truly honored to be an Amanda Price Bride!

Amanda is the best! If you’re trying to decide if you need a planner or not, you really do! It’s so worth finding a way to fit in your budget. From our first meeting, I just knew Amanda would help us plan and execute the best wedding! She is extremely organized, has all the right connections, makes sure nothing slips through the cracks and very detailed oriented. She’s also extremely responsive and answered all my questions quickly. From a planning perspective, she has the timing of when you need to make decisions down to a science and makes sure you get things done ahead of schedule. She has several vendor recommendations and I was extremely happy with all of them. She handles the scheduling of meetings, contract management and schedule of payments. Above and beyond the logistics and planning, Amanda was able to execute my vision. I showed her my ideas and she made them happen. As for the day of the wedding, her and her team executed flawlessly. I was able to fully experience and live in the moment of my wedding. She made sure that we followed the schedule of events and things went smoothly. I have heard from so many guests that my wedding was one of the best they had ever been to and had so many unique touches- and I fully attribute this to Amanda’s planning. My husband, parents and I can’t speak highly enough of Amanda. She’s easy to work with, calming, so kind and quickly became a friend- not just our planner!
