Reviews for Absolutely Events




Angie was my DOC for my April wedding and she was fantastic! Angie not only takes care of what normal DOCs do, but she goes above and beyond! She helped me with my Save the dates, invites, décor, and she has been my go-between for a few vendors. She also ordered all my table linens!
On the day of the wedding, she decorated the entire venue, assembled my bouquet, the bridesmaids' bouquets, and the floral centerpieces. There was also a point where there was some confusion at the venue during the wedding, and Angie took care of everything without anyone knowing there were problems!
Angie is professional, efficient, and organized, and will do ANYTHING you need her to do (I have heard that some DOCs charge extra to do things you’d think they were being paid to do)- Angie is not afraid to get to work! Angie returned my linens after the ceremony, made sure my venue was properly packed up and cleaned.
She makes sure your reception area looks just how you envisioned it. She also takes care of all the tipping and payments at the end of the night so you don’t have to worry about the details! And the best part… she always gets back to you right away (some of my vendors never return calls or emails and it drives me crazy!)
The wedding would not have gone as smoothly without Absolutely Events, and I highly, highly recommend her!

We worked with Angie and her assistant Courtney for our day of wedding coordination. Angie is an absolute delight to work with. She has an amazing personality and knows how to make a bride feel at ease. She listens to all of your concerns and helps you work them out. Her assistant Courtney was another amazing person to work with- she made sure to keep track of our bridal party, helped with bustling dresses, and was another wedding guru that Angie keeps in her arsenal.What I love about Angie is that she loves what she does and it shows. She cares about her clients and tries to tailor her services with your budget. Being a bride on a limited budget and having been previously rejected by other day of coordinators I was relieved that Angie cared enough to figure something out so we could work together. If you have the opportunity to work with Angie and her team do it... you will definitely not regret the decision or cost.If I ever need help with event/party/ or vow renewal coordination or planning she will definitely be the first person I call for help!

Angie is amazing and she is so great to work with. She is actually the only vendor that I found on my own without recommendations and based solely on reviews. All the reviews I read about her were great and I have to absolutely agree. She was so helpful every step of the way and very professional. She has a great list of preferred vendors, was always willing to help, got back to me quickly and was always so happy :). My (now) husband even made the comment "I am so glad we hired her". We cannot stress enough about how important it is to hire a coordinator. They make your life easier! And on the day of the wedding... there is nothing better than to be told where to go, what to do and if anyone asks you a question, all you have to say is "talk to Angie" and she took care of everything. I promise, you will thank me after you hire her. Great team of people to bring in on your special day... and all the planning days before!

Angie was amazing. The day went perfectly without any complications that I knew about. Would definately recommend her services to anyone!
GUEST




Angie, was a real gem to work with and worth every penny! We were very fortunate that she was available for our wedding date and everything went off without a hitch. Additionally, she went above and beyond traveling to inconvenient locations/meetings because of our hectic schedules. You are very fortunate if you have the pleasure of working with Angie.

Absolutely Events offers everything you need and surprises you with even more. We knew immediately that we were going to go with Absolutely Events when we first met Angie at our initial consultation. We met with several planners before we met Angie and we were beginning to think that we would not find the right person for us. Angie was referred to us by a colleague and, although she is based in San Diego (our wedding was in Los Angeles), she came so highly recommended that we thought we should meet her to see what all the fuss was about. We were absolutely thrilled!We arrived at our initial consultation early and, to our pleasant surprise, Angie was already there waiting for us and fully prepared to discuss our wedding. Originally, we were only looking for a day-of-coordinator (partly to save money and partly because I like to take care of things myself to make sure they get done right), but we were so impressed with Angie that we ended up booking her for the month-of. Each meeting with Angie (in-person, telephonically and via Skype) was always a pleasure and always productive. When Angie came with us to meet our other vendors, she took a leading role in expressing to them our vision for the wedding and in representing our best-interests. She was always prompt and thorough in responding to our questions and always exhibited a positive, can-do attitude. She is a breath of fresh air. Our wedding was beautiful, seamless and stress-free. Angie and her assistant, Colleen (also a thrill to work with), took care of everything. Everything was exactly what we imagined it would be. Thanks to Absolutely Events, our vision of our wedding day came to life. And, we were able to enjoy every second of it without having to worry about anything.Angie is professional, intelligent, detail-oriented, conscientious, hard-working, creative and passionate about her work. And, as an added bonus, she is an absolute sweetheart! Even with her busy schedule, she always made us feel like we were her only clients and that our wedding was as special to her as it was to us. If I had to do it all over again, the only thing I would do differently is that I would have booked Angie's full planning package. I highly recommend Absolutely Events for all of your event planning needs!

Angie was everything you could ask for in a wedding coordinator. She provided day-of coordination for us, but was available for all kinds of questions/concerns/random thoughts before the wedding and played a HUGE role in helping us relax before and during the big day.Always responsive (super-quick and thorough) and professional, Angie has been wonderful and fun to work with. A very picky bride, I interviewed 5 or 6 wedding coordinators (and researched many more) but Angie was by far the most friendly, detail-oriented, flexible and accommodating coordinator. She was genuinely excited for my wedding details and plans, which was really important to me :) Can't thank her and recommend her enough!!
GUEST




As a "out of the area" mom, having Absolutely Events there to help coordinate my daughters wedding was such a relief. Angie and her staff were wonderful. They kept the event planning fun yet on task. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone planning a wedding.
GUEST




Angie and her staff were amazing. It was SO nice to be able to relax and soak up my wedding day, having complete trust that everything was being taken care of. I had nothing to worry about! I would have had my wedding no other way.
GUEST




I can only brag about her! Angie was absolutely wonderful! She made absolutely everything so easy and took care of many decisions that made our day so enjoyable! She and her assistant Courtney were our biggest fans and were so accommodating to friends and family to help them as well. We cannot thank her enough for everything that she did not only the day of but for the weeks before! She was always there to support us with anything. Truly she was a pleasure to work with and our wedding would not have been the same if she wasn't there! I would recommend Angie for ANYONE!
GUEST




Angie with Absolutely Events made my wedding a success! Angie was there to help me navigate a problem venor. Without Angies assistance I would be without wedding invitations! She was also able to help me assemble my wedding programs after I gave her a days notice! Angie went above and beyond my expectations. She was always on time, professional and willing to help with whatever I needed! Her team provided exceptional service the day of the wedding and the month leading up! I was really impressed that she was around to help with things even after the wedding! Her services were truly worth every penny! I have already referred her to my other friends who are getting married. I can't say enough about Absolutely Events!
GUEST




Angie was absolutely wonderful throughout all of our wedding planning. She is very flexible and so helpful! We are so grateful that Angie was able to be a part of our special day. Angie is also very organized which is great because everything turned out perfect. If you are looking for a the perfect wedding planner, then Angie from Absolutely Events is the one you should choose!Thank you Angie for everything!
GUEST




Organized, honest, super sweet, creative, fun, smart, life-saver, problem-solver, professional, responsible, personable, trustworthy - all words that I use to describe Angie, and that doesn't even cover it. I am SO lucky to have found her to assist with my wedding. I originally booked her for only DOC services and quickly found, as an out-of-town bride, that I needed more help that what I first thought. So then I changed to more month-of type service with her, and that eventually led to hiring her for full planning and design of my wedding as I got to know her more and saw what she was capable of. Angie was able to run with my ideas and designed and created an event that my (now) husband and I will never forget. It was our dream day, and that can be attributed in large part to Angie and her wonderful team. Angie handled nearly all of the initial planning for me, designed the overall "look" for our wedding, handled all of the logistics and details, and on the day-of, she and her team executed the plan flawlessly. If anything did not go to plan, I never knew about it. Throughout the planning process she was so wonderful and was great about scheduling phone calls with me and responding quickly to my e-mails. When I came into town for a couple of visits before the big day she made every attempt (probably in between other weddings and events) to meet with me. I could just run on and on about how amazing she was to work with!!!
GUEST




Angie was amazing. I immediately clicked with Angie even though she was the first (of many) interviewee I had. She was the only one who made me feel really relaxed and excited by my idea to rent a house and to have the rehearsal dinner, reception, and day after brunch held at the house. I loved the day of service. The day of the wedding as soon as she showed up I turned off from planning mode and just relaxed and enjoyed the day. She was so excellent during the reception in ways that I had not even thought of and helped make my husband and I's special day even more so because we felt so much like VIP's with the way she took care of us. There are so many little things that she did that I did not even realize until days, even weeks after that I would get continuously impressed with her service. I would definitely use her again and would recommend her to anyone and everyone.
GUEST




I cannot even BEGIN to share how much I loved Angie and everything she did for us. Angie was absolutely amazing! She was my rock throughout the whole wedding planning process. She helped me when I felt unsure of what decisions I'd made and stopped me from changing things or going way off track from what I'd started. Angie seemed to be able to see the vision I had of my wedding and she made it a reality. My guests still talk about what a great planner I had and how she made everything seem seamless. I'm SO glad that I chose to go with Angie and Absolutelyevents rather than any other planner I'd met.
GUEST




Angie planned my wedding beginning with a timeline of things to do and when to do them. That is the most helpful thing ever! From that success, we began working closely with Angie to help plan our entire wedding. We were a little hesitant to give her full go but after we realized the type of business she has, we were all for it. Angie is perfect! She is so calm and in control, very professional and a hard worker. She was willing to help with everything from contacting vendors to making table numbers and place cards. She was always available and worked very well with all our vendors. She and her team did a fantastic job running the whole wedding event! Not only was she great at planing, but when game day came, she excelled. I felt so comfortable knowing she was in control that I didnt worry about hardly anything (and you know how brides can be). I highly recommend her and her staff. She is awesome!

When it comes to AWESOME planning and coordinating, Angie has it down to a science. A total pro with great taste and a great attitude. High 5's all around!
Angie did a wonderful job as our day of coordinator. In fact, she went far and beyond what we had contracted her to do. Unfortunately, due to an unforeseen circumstance we were not able to follow up with Angie on a lot of things for actual day. In fact, we had to have a impromptu wedding which we had requested her to coordinate at the last minute and she had no hesitation and was there with all smiles.All we had was one meeting and with all the information she had, she pretty much got everything organised that day. She was such a great help and on top of things! Angie is a genuine person who really cares about what she does and her clients. Bring a fellow wedding vendor its definitely a pleasure working with her.Thanks so much Angie for all your support and great work!
Angie is a fantastic person to work with. She is very organized and hands on. She makes everyone around her feel comfortable and ease. I am always thrilled to work with her and know that the orders will be correct and the bride will be pleased with her skills and warm personality.
We love working with Angie, she is very organized and efficient!
Angie is such a pleasure to work with! As a fellow wedding professional, when I know that a wedding I am doing is one of Angie's, I know I can relax and only need to focus on my job, my specific responsibilities, as she's taking care of the rest. The communication from her is terrific, and I always have the details I need for the weddings I do with her. And she is an absolute pleasure as a person - so easy-going, so sweet, so supportive - but you know she can be tough when she has to be! I definitely recommend you get in touch and work with Angie!
Angie and I have worked together a few times and have had so much fun because she is so laid back and easy to work with. She is very on top of each and every detail while making it look effortless. From the pre-planning correspondence through the day of, Angie "Absolutely" takes care of business, and "Absolutely" gets my endorsement..
Angie of Absolute Events is an excellent coordinator with a passion for what she does. She is a sweetheart and is highly organized, motivated and professional yet personal. I would recommend her to any bride!
Angie was outstanding to work with and the day could not have run more smoothly. It was easy to see how much stress she took off of the bride! She was very helpful and personable, I would recommend her to anyone who needs a little help planning their event! ~KNH
Angie is one of the MOST organized and well prepared people I've ever met. She's a delight to work with and has a great disposition. Where some coordinators may crumble under the pressure...she comes through with flying colors! I would definitely recommend her for your event(s)!
Owner and planner Angie Metts couldn't have picked a better industry and career for herself! Truly she not only has the personality, talent, and knowledge for planning and coordinating but she comes with a passion that unfortunately you don't always come across. Angie and her staff look after every and all details before and long after the completion of the event. Really as a bride you couldn't be in better hands than with Angie!
If you're looking for a stress free, hands on, can do anything needed with a pleasant friendly attitude you will be delighted with Angie and her crew at Absolutely events. I have had the pleasure of working with her on a couple of weddings and her commitment and attention to detail is unmatched. Absolutely events goes the extra mile to make her brides smile.
