Ashley Victoria Productions (AVP Events)

I had a really great experience working with Ashley. Due to COVID-19 our wedding date was changed and Ashley was flexible in accommodating us. On the day of she was very thorough, efficient, professional and just cheerful, overall a really great day and I am thrilled that she was able to support us on the day of the ceremony. I would highly recommend Ashley.

I am not sure one review can encompass everything Ashley did to make our wedding a brilliant success and a day we were able to celebrate with all our hearts and no stress. We simply could not have brought together the day in the way we dreamed without her total involvement. Ashley was there for us 24/7 from the moment we brought her in, month-after-month, to 3:00 a.m. on the night of the wedding, and to wrapping up any little strings after the event while we were off enjoying our honeymoon. Even if you’re a super-organized, great planner, intend to ‘keep it simple’, think you know exactly what you want person – let me tell you, as soon as you start planning your wedding – you just don’t even know yet how much you do not know about creating your ideal wedding day. And with allll the other pressures you already have in life at the same time as you’re trying to pull off a great wedding – you really don’t want to make the months before it a terrible, overly-stressful experience! That’s where Ashley becomes your hero.

Because we had Ashley by our side through all the planning and the day of, we can now have memories of our wedding and the preparation time that are wonderful to reflect on. We really appreciated that it was important to Ashley that both myself and my fiancé be involved in the various aspects of planning. This allowed her to get to know us as a couple, and to make sure both of us were happy with the wedding day we were creating. She established our roadmap and all the checkpoints needed to get us there (and made sure we met them), helped us set up and maintain our budget, find all the right vendors, handled coordination of everyone, reviewed our contracts and even negotiated for us. She provided expert vision and suggestions on everything to do with the event look and feel; she was able to take our ideas and narrow them down successfully to a vision that was coordinated and reflective of us. She was innovative, coming up with creative, cost-saving and/or time-saving ideas for various design elements.

I also appreciated that Ashley was very flexible and professional, customizing her process to our individual needs. Where I wanted to take more ownership, she let me, but was always there if I needed her and to provide advice when asked. Where I needed to work partially on something but didn’t have the time to really drive it, Ashley took care of moving it forward and gave me all the information I needed for decision-making. Where it was something low interest or that I simply didn’t have time to deal with, Ashley took total ownership when needed and stayed true to vision.

We had many guests comment to us that the wedding day went so smoothly, and everything was just right. Ashley was the reason for this – she was there at every second, kindly ensuring the schedule was on track, that people were where they should be, assisting elderly ones over a curb, helping reception guests find their seats, and that the bridal party was hydrated and fed. She ensured the reception hall set up was absolutely perfect down to the last table napkin and flower arrangement, and that the meal service was flawless.

Our wedding day would not have happened the way we wanted without Ashley’s services. Please do yourself the best favour and one that will save you time, money, and stress – work with Ashley to plan your wedding!

AVP events were great. Ashley was so much help with the obstacles and emotions that naturally come with planning a wedding. We truly appreciate her being there to listen to us. We got the help we needed with co-ordination, the table sitting arrangements, invitations and rsvps. Also her insight on how to stay on budget was helpful. Leaving it up the her and a small team of friends to setup made us feel more relaxed. Thank you for all your time and patience!

You will not be disappointed with Ashley. She tries to go above and beyond for her clients, even if they're 2 hours away! Despite the distance and only meeting a few times in person she was very resourceful and was prompt with any questions or concerns I had. Very professional and friendly, she made me feel comfortable throughout the entire planning. Her creative mind was over flowing with ideas which led to such a beautiful night we will never forget.
Thank you so much Ashley for day we will forever cherish.

Ashley is the hardest working professional that I know. Her attention to detail and personal touch makes her the ideal consultant for this kind of event!
We could have never had anyone better to plan and execute a memory that will last a couple of lifetimes because my grandbaby will look to this day as one of the most memorable moments of her life as well.
Highly recommended!

I would definitely hire Ashley again and I recommend her to all my friends and family! She has become my go-to planner for not just weddings, but everything! Her great taste and talent in designing and planning an event really shows in the end results. I want to also commend Ashley on her awesome presence and professionalism.

Was really great working with Ashley. She has a very calm, reassuring nature about her that I very much appreciated during the stress of the wedding. Ashley was our day of coordinator but also assisted at the rehearsal and helped with overall vision and some bridal party decisions. She was thorough and handled everything professionally. We were at ease knowing Ashley and her team were at the helm.

My wife and I are so happy we found Ashley to help us with our wedding day. Ashley was an extremely proactive person, who was always composed, positive, and friendly - the exact type of personality you want around you during your wedding day.

Our wedding was for over 500 people in attendance, and Ashley met up with us a couple months in advance to go over any essential details for our day (wedding size, details on ceremony, loose itinerary for reception programs).

Leading up to the date, Ashley helped come up with a detailed schedule for the day, and got in touch with all the vendors to go over anything she should know for the day and when payments were due. Most importantly she was checking in on us to give us reminders where we needed, and give positive feedback when we started to stress out. She made herself constantly available for us, and was always extremely friendly when we spoke. I always found myself feeling less stressed after speaking with her.

On the day of, she was running around to make sure everything went on schedule, and trying to do anything to help alleviate our stress (ex. bride's feet swelled up after long photoshoot after wedding ceremony so Ashley went and got her an ice bucket to help reduce the swelling).

As stressful as the day was, we know we would've been significantly more stressed in the days leading up to the wedding, and on the big day itself if it wasn't for Ashley's leadership. Any of our family and friends who had the chance to interact with her mentioned how much they loved her, and how much of a genuine, warm personality she had. She was the perfect day-of coordinator, we couldn't imagine executing the day without her guidance. Thanks so much Ashley!! You're the best!!

Ashley did so well to coordinate everything and made sure our day went exactly to our vision! Would definitely recommend for any couples getting married in the future.
