Love Notes from Our Couples

Smiling Through Chaos goes above and beyond!

Amanda is exactly the kind of caring, creative, professional, organized presence you want on your team. She has such a bright personality, and it’s beyond clear that she is 110% all in for her clients, always. We had less than a year before our wedding day and Amanda was so much more than just a planner or coordinator. She was an advocate, a negotiator, and the creative director who took our feedback, crafted it into a cohesive story, and executed the wedding of my dreams.

There are not enough words to say how incredible Smiling Through Chaos is. Amanda and her team captured our essence in every way. One of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding was hiring Smiling Through Chaos as our full service wedding planner!

Endless creativity and energy


Simply the Best

Don’t hesitate! Hiring Amanda was the best decision I made while planning my wedding. She and her team were organized, professional and a delight to work with.

You Won’t Find Anyone Better

This review for Smiling Through Chaos is WAY overdue. Our wedding was almost a year ago, and we are still in awe of how absolutely incredible Amanda and her team were. Amanda was first referred to us by friends, and from the moment we first spoke with her, we knew why. She is amazing! So full of life, beautiful energy, and extremely detailed. Her communication and professionalism is unmatched! To be honest, as a couple we didn’t think we needed a planner. We thought we could handle it all on our own. Looking back now, we truly don’t know how we could have done it without Amanda and her team. She and Adria thought of EVERYTHING—literally every detail, from the biggest decisions to the tiniest touches we never would have considered. And on the day of our wedding, Adria was simply phenomenal. She was hands on, supportive, and didn’t miss a single beat! Together, Amanda and Adria made sure that every moment unfolded flawlessly, and they handled everything behind the scenes so we didn’t have to worry about a single thing. Not one! What Amanda and Adria gave us was the greatest gift: the ability to be fully present, stress-free, and truly enjoy every second of our wedding day. We didn’t just feel taken care of—we felt celebrated, supported, and loved through the entire process. Almost a year later, we can say with absolute confidence that hiring Smiling Through Chaos was one of the best decisions we made. If you’re on the fence about whether or not you need a planner, let us be the ones to tell you, you do. And you won’t find anyone better than Amanda and her team.
