Double A Weddings & Events

Q: Do you take on multiple weddings in a day or weekend?

I personally only work one wedding a weekend, but, if I am booked on your wedding weekend, I can sometimes offer you one of my amazing lead assistants to coordinate your rehearsal and wedding day, while I still handle all of the wedding planning per package. This option is handled on a case by case basis.

Q: Are you part of a team? Who will we be working with?

I am generally a one-woman show in the planning process, but I do utilize coordination assistants, depending on the scope of the event, at my discretion and on my own dime.

Q: Do you also plan other events, like showers or rehearsal dinners?

I sure do! While weddings are my bread and butter now, I do all kinds of events and have over 17 years of diverse event experience.

Q: How much time should we expect to spend with you?

As much time as it takes! For Planning Lite, it's about 40 hours of my time including your day, but I have couples that use up more than that. For planning and partial planning, you get as much time as it takes. For any package, you'll see me as often as you need and as little as once a month with plenty of emailing in between.

Q: What are your weddings like? Any specialties?

I have worked on lots of different weddings, but I excel at creating a laid-back atmosphere and taking stress off of my clients. I do specialize in non-traditional and queer weddings, but have certainly executed plenty of traditional weddings as well.

About Double A Weddings & Events

Double A Weddings & Events

Owner, Wedding Planner

I'm a Portland, Oregon event planner with over 17 years of diverse event experience and over 8 years of wedding experience. In the planning process, I'm a team of one, but I do use lead coordinators and coordination assistants on event days. I offer discounts for LGBTQ weddings, Mon-Fri weddings, and weddings at Leach Botanical Garden. The prices listed on Zola are my total package prices, not including any travel fees to venues outside of the Portland metro or any a la carte services you choose.

Double A is my name, Andy Anthony, and it's also the boundless energy I bring to my work and I’ll work day and night to guarantee that your event will be filled with unforgettable moments. I believe that weddings should be FUN and that you should get to relax and enjoy such a momentous occasion.

In three words: Collaborative, Organized, Supportive

Description	I take care of almost everything, such as vendor research and communication, gathering quotes, setting up meetings, facilitating contracts, and managing every detail so that you are able to save time and energy and focus on making decisions. Also includes planning the rehearsal dinner, but not staffing the dinner. I help you manage your budget and consult on budget, but you are responsible for paying the venue and vendors.	If you're eloping or planning a micro wedding with 15 guests or less, contact me for a custom quote! I'll meet with you and then base my quote on how much labor it will take to execute your event.	I call this package Planning Coaching. This package was designed as a more budget-friendly planning option that guides you through the planning process, keeps you on track, and provides my expertise throughout.

I call this package Wedding Planning Lite, which is similar to coordination, but entails so much more than typical coordination offerings, such as timeline and floorplan creation, vendor communications on logistics, regular check-ins, my brain to pick at any time, and management of your wedding rehearsal and wedding day start to finish.

Andy: The Only Person Who MUST Be on A Guest list
•Verified review
•Scott E.•Sep 30
Hiring Andy as our wedding planner was the best decision we could have made for our wedding. From day one, she brought an incredible mix of professionalism, creativity, fun, and calm confidence to the process. She didn’t just check boxes or keep us on schedule—she anticipated our needs before we even realized them, guided us through the overwhelming choices, and solved problems before they ever became problems. Every time we thought, “How will this work out?” she already had a thoughtful solution. What impressed us most was how she balanced her expertise with a warm, personal touch. She listened closely, got to know us as a couple, and made sure every decision reflected our style and priorities. We never once felt like we were just another wedding on her calendar—she made us feel like ours was the most important celebration she was working on. In fact, we're sure that it was. That kind of attention and care is rare. On the wedding day itself, she was nothing short of a lifesaver. Everything ran seamlessly—timelines, vendors, unexpected hiccups—and we were able to be fully present, knowing she had everything under control. Our guests raved about how smooth and joyful the day felt, and we know that’s because of her work behind the scenes. If you’re looking for someone who is both an organized professional and a warm, steady presence, look no further. She is extraordinary at what she does, and we will forever be grateful that she was by our side. She turned what could have been stressful into an experience that was exciting, meaningful, and joyful from beginning to end. Her very presence allowed us to enjoy the moments that we were there to enjoy. That is a priceless gift. We cannot recommend her highly enough.

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Andy at Double A Weddings & Events on several weddings now, and I can confidently say she is one of the best—if not THE BEST—coordinators in the industry. Her vast knowledge and experience guarantee that every wedding she touches becomes a smooth, seamless, organized, thoughtful, and joyous occasion. In the months and days leading up to an event, Andy goes above and beyond to connect with vendors, resolve any potential gray areas, and create the most detailed and organized timelines. She schedules phone calls, Zoom meetings, and even in-person meetups to ensure everyone is aligned. On the wedding day itself, she is an absolute powerhouse—if a vendor falls behind, Andy is quick to step in, pick up the slack, and get everyone back on track. Her attention to detail and unwavering work ethic set her apart, and she always gets the job done. Beyond her incredible professionalism, Andy is a joy to be around. She radiates positivity and warmth, making every interaction fun and uplifting. I often find myself wanting to chat with her even amidst the hustle of a wedding day, because she has such a steady, joyful presence. This energy extends to everyone around her—couples, guests, and fellow vendors are naturally drawn to her light. She is a true guiding force, which is exactly what you want in a coordinator. I genuinely wish I could work every wedding alongside Andy. She not only makes my job as a photographer easier, but she also elevates the entire wedding experience for everyone involved. I cannot recommend her highly enough to any couple in need of a coordinator.

I don't even know where to begin with how AMAZING Andy was for our entire wedding planning process. When we met Andy, we discussed our idea to hold our wedding at a brand new location that would require us to build a full venue and services from scratch. Andy was instantly game to take on the challenge and there's no way we could have done it without her. She became an advisor to both us and the location owner, guiding us all through every step of the process. Having Andy on our side allowed us to focus on the wedding details we were most passionate about and enjoy the process instead of stressing on all the details of building a venue. Flashing forward to the wedding day itself - Andy and team were amazing. Everything looked amazing and spot on for our hopes and vision. The entire day was a dream, the schedule was great, our guests all had a ball and we were so, so happy. Andy is truly meant for this work and is the person to work with to make your wedding dreams come true. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Andy (and team!) !!!

Andy and her team are amazing!! After being part a wedding with a terrible planner and seeing the impact, we knew we had to hire someone top tier and Andy is just that! From the start, we knew we were in excellent hands with her amazing energy, spreadsheets, and deep well of experience. We had a pretty large, complex wedding and Andy thought of absolutely every last detail, right down to how long it would take to light 300 candles (!!). Friends kept asking if we were stressed leading up to the wedding and we could honestly say no with Andy running things. The wedding itself was incredibly well run with no hiccups and a perfectly budgeted timeline. Do yourself a massive favor and hire Andy to plan and/or coordinate your wedding, no matter the size. You'll be so grateful you did!
