An incredible planner!

I am not sure where to begin. What I know for sure is writing a review for Andrea will never come close to expressing how much we appreciated her and how phenomenal she was to work with. As soon as we got off of our initial phone call we knew Andrea would be the perfect planner for us. She completely understood our vision, asked all the right questions and was able to communicate perfectly with us. Andrea and the incredible A. Rose team found us the perfect venue, gave us amazing vendor recommendations, was on top of all the moving pieces and was incredibly responsive. She went above and beyond anything we could have ever imagined!

Working with us through a pandemic - we had changing variables up until a week before our wedding. Andrea was prepared and ready with any information we needed and the best course of action to proceed. Leading up to the big day, Andrea was so hands on and helped us navigate some hiccups with our “non-negotiables” (in a much more professional way than I could ever have communicated with the venue!)

During the day of the wedding Andrea had her superhero cape in tact - my husband and I were able to be 100% present on the day of the wedding. Andrea worked incredibly hard and everything went off without a hitch. It is cheesy - but it was a dream come true!

As someone who is very…hands on and type A myself I wasn’t sure I initially needed a wedding planner when we started planning. HOWEVER I would not have succeeded without Andrea, she is worth EVERY single penny and more. Our whole family has so much love and appreciation for her and our guests flooded us with compliments! ANDREA IS THE BEST RUN DON’T WALK. We love you so much - thank you

Truly Amazing

Andrea was absolutely wonderful to work with. She went above and beyond for us on our wedding day. We know that we were able to have such a beautiful and care-free day because of her.

I am someone who is very organized and a lover of spreadsheets, however, I knew with all that was going on in my life, I was going to need some extra support. Leading up to our wedding Andrea was so helpful, keeping everything on track and guiding us through the process. Just when I thought I had covered every single one of the tiny details, Andrea would remind me of some more. She is truly amazing at what she does. I'm so happy that we had Andrea to make sure our day was planned perfectly.

Our wedding day was wonderful, we didn't have to worry about anything, and I knew that she knew my exact vision for the reception room. Her and her team did an amazing job setting everything up and working with the florist to make everything look perfect. She was our representative, had our best interests in mind at all times, and we trusted her 100% with dealing with the venue and all of the vendors. She was so helpful and thorough with all of the details, including the end-of-night cleanup arrangements.

We felt so well taken care of on our wedding day and I know a lot of that was because of Andrea. I would recommend her over and over again. If you are unsure about hiring a wedding planner, just go for it and don't think twice about it. You won't regret it.

The best planner anyone could ask for

Andrea is undoubtably the best wedding planner out there. I have no experience with any others but I am entirely confident in this! Over the course of our two and a half year engagement, Andrea was there every step of the day with quarterly check ins, organizing regular calls, and being a wonderful support with any questions that rose up through the planning process, despite only being our month of planner. She assisted us with florals and decor planning as well, which was such a help as I was totally blind to the process. She created mood boards, brainstormed with us, and created a LOTR dreamland that looked straight out of a Pinterest board.

Best of all, Andrea was a friend throughout everything. I felt so comfortable working with her, and everytime my partner and I spoke with her, we couldn't help but discuss how wonderful she is and how we couldn't have done this without her. I encourage and implore anyone in the area looking for a planner to turn to Andrea - you will not regret it.

Andre Rose is amazing !

Andrea did the month and day of coordination for our big day on September 10. She was super easygoing and absolutely wonderful to work with. Andrea took the stress of having to organize the schedule with the vendors both before and on the day, and she did an amazing job at setting everything up - it was gorgeous. Thank you Andrea!

So grateful for A. Rose Inspirations!

A. Rose Inspirations was a true joy to work with! We are both so grateful to Andrea and her team for ensuring our wedding day was a stress free dream. From the challenges of wedding planning during covid, to day-of nerves, Andrea was reliable, personable and reassuring. She was so in tune with the unique details of our day that everything came together beautifully. Not only is she incredibly organized and prepared, but she was a fantastic advocate for us as a couple with our other vendors as we planned our big day. She was truly on our side and was the best investment we made during wedding planning. Thank you so so much! We would not have been able to make such joyous memories without A. Rose Inspirations.

Amazing Service!

Hiring aroseinspirations for month-of wedding coordination services was the best decision we made during the wedding planning process.

We hired Andrea approximately four months before our summer 2021 wedding (which had previously been rescheduled from 2020).
Her friendly demeanour, great listening skills, professionalism and valuable industry expertise are just a few of the many things that made working with Andrea such a positive experience.

Andrea held a kickoff meeting and several touch-base calls with us leading up the wedding, which really helped calm our nerves. When we realized we needed to reschedule our wedding date yet another time due to pandemic restrictions, Andrea was nothing but flexible and helpful. She connected with our many vendors to determine new date options for us and made the process of rescheduling our date smooth sailing.

It was a great feeling knowing we could trust and count on Andrea and her team to bring our decor vision to life the day of the wedding. They did a fabulous job with day-of coordination and made sure everything looked just how we envisioned it.

I would highly recommend Aroseinspriations in a heart beat to anyone considering coordination or planning services. Thank you Aroseinspirations for the amazing services!

My Sister’s Dream Bridal Shower

I collaborated with Andrea for the planning and execution of my sister’s bridal shower and it was a wonderful experience working with her on this!

Her friendly and professional demeanour made her a pleasure to work with and she took time to figure out exactly what my vision was.

Andrea helped me come up with the event design and theme, drew out a sample floor plan of the venue setup, identified food, materials and decor required, handled some communication with the venue contact and supported me with the coordination and logistics on the day of the event. She was always happy to answer any questions I had and provided me with her guidance related to different elements of the event.

I would certainly recommend Andrea’s services to others.

Thank you Andrea for all of your guidance and for helping me throw my sister her dream shower!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
