"My husband and I had the most amazing experience with our wedding planner! Ashley and her team effortlessly turned my vision into reality, managing every detail with precision. The attention to detail, creativity, and professionalism exceeded my expectations. Our special day was stress-free and absolutely perfect, thanks to their dedication and expertise. Highly recommended!"

"Ashley was amazing!!! She helped me fix my dress at a wedding after having a wardrobe malfunction. She did it so quickly and seamlessly. Highly recommend her, she’s the best"
"Hands down the best decision I have made in regards to my wedding was hiring Ashley from Velvet Bordeaux Events. If I could change anything, it would be wishing I had hired her for full services and not just partial wedding planning services. She made everything so easy when I felt like I was being pulled in a million different directions during the planning phase and had the best vendor suggestions and working relationships with them. She took my vague idea of Twilight wedding meets Bridgerton and found the best vendors to make it a reality and didn’t bat an eye and gently nudge me in the right direction whenever my ADHD would flare up and I would just freeze, feel overwhelmed, or just try procrastinating everything.
Ashley is so organized it made me more organized. She kept me on top of deadlines with vendors, and was almost like a therapist where I could vent about wedding stress and we’d end up fixing the problem if she could even if it was outside of her partial wedding planning duties. She was truly a pleasure to work with and went above and beyond anything I could have hoped for.
The day of was as stress-free as I could imagine a wedding being because she had everything flawlessly planned out and made sure it all went off without a hitch. We were able to truly just enjoy our day without any of the stress. It has been almost a year and we are still getting compliments from our guests with how amazing our wedding was, especially with how nothing dragged on for too long and the games and speeches were all perfectly spread out. I can’t recommend Ashley enough, she is so thorough and experienced it was hands down the best money we had spent on our wedding. Her composure, professionalism and passion made our dream day come to life. I truly cannot thank her enough (or her assistant that made sure we were on time) and would highly recommend her to everyone."

"Where do I start! Ashley was amazing from start to finish of the entire planning process. We hired her 7 weeks before our wedding date when we just spontaneously decided we were ready to get married, being a pregnant bride you would have think I would have been so stressed planning a wedding but she made this entire process stress free and she was always on top of things and was able to find all great vendors for me and plan a micro backyard wedding in just the span of 7 weeks. We were very impressed by her and would recommend her over and over again. A planner like her is very hard to find!"

"Ashley was an absolute hero behind the scenes and throughout our entire wedding process. We have nothing but amazing things to say about working with her. We first found her when she coordinated a friend’s wedding, and her work and her vibrant energy really speaks for itself (we’ve been to many weddings and don’t usually remember the coordinator). My wife and I had a large bridal party (18 people plus 6 people with different roles for the ceremony), and Ashley effortlessly coordinated everyone’s roles and guided them without a single look of stress. She was also very knowledgeable with the cultural wedding traditions my wife and I incorporated into our ceremony (even taught us the procedures). Our guests were also really impressed with Ashley, because they noticed she was always in such a great mood as she ran around gathering people for each segment of the night, and they were amazed at how well the night flowed. Ashley ESPECIALLY saved the day when our wedding cake tragically collapsed during transportation (my Aunt made the cake). She jumped on it right away, pieced together whatever she could and somehow managed to make the cake photo ready (see our photos, we couldn’t believe it ourself lol). On top of that she didn’t even tell my wife and I about the situation until it was fixed, during cocktail hour so that we wouldn’t spend time stressing! With Ashley, we really felt like we were in good hands. She was so pleasant to work with, and we honestly can’t explain enough how grateful we are to have her!!!"

"Our wedding day wouldn't have been as successful if it wasn't for Ashley's professionalism and endearing personality. She took care of every major and minor detail for us. Even our guests commented on how our wedding coordinator was " so nice and really good". She loves what she does and it shows. We can't thank you enough!"

"The event was beyond what we imagined, we didn't offer any direction other than the time of arrival and the seasons we would be carrying.
Velvet Bordeaux Events created an unforgettable atmosphere for women to mix, mingle and appreciate our exquisite line of clothing."

"Recently I threw a wedding shower for one of my closest friends. Was I nervous? Yes, because it’s been a while since I’ve had to plan a shower. I decided to ask for help rather than attempting this on my own. Enter Velvet Bordeaux. High energy, resourceful, creative and organized. Ashley took the stress out of the planning process and actually created a fun environment to work in. She had great ideas and she’s dependable and incredibly hard working. I thoroughly enjoyed working with her and it’s my pleasure to recommend her."

"Ashley was our coordinator onsite for our wedding. She was incredibly organized. From the moment we arrived she knew exactly what needed to be done. She kept us on schedule and was very courteous when she needed our attention. Ashley, thank you so much for everything! You made the day very stress free and we could not be happier with how everything turned out!"

"Ron and I had the most wonderful, stress-free wedding day and enjoyed every minute of our special day! We met Ashley by chance and we couldn’t be happier! She seamlessly picked up where our month of planner left off and really took our wedding to the next level. She was easy to work with, professional and innovative. Our event was executed flawlessly and exactly how we had envisioned it! I remember being asked if I wanted a sneak peak at the reception area before the ceremony and I was in awe and even shed a few tears because everything we planned for months came together perfectly and we have Ashley to thank for making it a reality!
She managed our large wedding, worked with multiple vendors, and ensured that my husband and I had the time of our lives while sticking to our timeline and taking care of any little surprises that came up! All of this she did with absolute grace, poise, and ease and so many of our guests were raving about how patient and kind she was. We are so grateful to have had her handle our beautiful event. I highly recommend Velvet Bordeaux Events to any bride and groom as they are sure to make your special day elegant, fun and stress-free. Thanks again Ashley!"
"I have been working at the Vue/Clubhouse for almost a year and many years in the industry and you were the best planner we have ever worked with by far. Some people are meant to work in this industry and you are definitely one of those people."
