    Athena was the planner/coordinator for our daughter’s out of town wedding. She made Madi’s vision come to life. Athena went above and beyond to help us stay organized, gave us timelines, and had wonderful ideas. We couldn’t have asked for better service. She became like family to us! We miss working with her.

    Weddings with Athena was simply the best wedding planner we could have asked for. From the moment we hired her, her communication style was extremely responsive and efficient, always keeping us informed and on track. The quality of her work and overall value was amazing - she managed and coordinated the entire day, serving as the point of contact for all our vendors and seamlessly handling them. We couldn't have hired anyone better, and we highly recommend Weddings with Athena to any couple planning their wedding.

  • Athena is amazing!!!!

    We had the pleasure of working with Athena, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. I found the wedding planning process to be so stressful, not as blissful as some may say, but thankfully I had Athena to help guide me through so many decisions and vendors. Not only was she helping me plan, she became a good friend in the process. Day of, she and her team helped coordinate the entire day throughout multiple venues and made sure my husband and I were solely focused on enjoying our wedding day. They decorated amazingly with DIY decor I bought, and treated us like royalty and made sure things went smoothly from start to end. To say they were helpful is an understatement. I’m so happy we got to work together, and so thankful they made our day as special as could be.
